NEW YORK; Sept. 17-With over score of people dead and many others in a precarious condition from eating toadstools which were thought to be mushrooms. the health depart ment has taken steps to enlighten the citizens of New York as to the diff ference between the edible vegetables and the poisonous fungi.

Neighboring cities in New Jer- sey and in Westchester county have also suffered from the plague of toadstoOls.
 Whether they came by tube or ferry or on their own wings is not known. but New York has recently suffered a fierce invasion of New Jersey mosquitoes. The insects spread all over the greater city and kept millions awake nearly all of one night One of the worst sufferers was J. P Morgan, who had prepared to spend the night in his yacht. which was mOored in the North River off Eighty-first street. Such is the good fortune of the millionaire. however. that when the pests became unbearable, Mir. Morgan ordered the captain of the Corsair to take the craft up the Hudson to Ardsley, and SO aGcaDod the insects

cese Ratified by Pope.

Observation-Disclosures from Rome
state that the Rt. Rev Joseph NJ. Kou-
delka, Cleveland, has been ratified as
auxiliary bishop of Milwaukee by the
pope following action by the consis
torial congregation. He is by birth a

Of St Francis seminary.
He was born in ChilistOva. BOhe-
mia, in 1852. When II years old he
had concluded his classical studies in
the Bohemian gymnasium, which cor
responds to the American high school.
His parents came to this country while

Reedsburg, Wis. Through the assist
ance of Bishop Grace of st. Paul he
was enabled to study for the priest
hood. At the age of % he was or
dained from St Francis seminary, a
dispensatiOn from Rome granting the
privilege of ordination at this early
age on account of the urgent need of
Bohemian priest in Cleveland.
The Polish Catholics of this city
have been msistent that a priest of
their nationality be appointed as auxil-
larry bishop.

Short of Last Year.

Washington.-Grai crops of the
United States aggregate 4,4O9, 100000
bushels, an increase last month of
10000 900 bushels, but loss of 1884,
100000 bushels from last year, accord
ing to the government crop report.
While weather conditions practical
ly throughout the country were rea-
sonably favorable to growing crops
during the month of August, the crop
report did not indicate generally much
improvement in the condition OF the
crops over that of a month ago.
Some Improvement was shown in
the great staple crop Of corn as of
September l over August 1, but 1t
amounted to only seven-tenths of one
per cent. in the aggregate. The yield
of corn this year, as indicated by the
report, will be 1856 bushels per acre,
as compared with PA bushels last
year.
Wheat shows a falling off Of ap-
proximately ten per cent. in condition
as compared with the average for the
last ten years.
Oats also shows a considerable fall
ing off both in condition and in aver
age yield per acre. While the indi-
Gated yield for this year is 23.9 bush
els an acre, the final yield for 1910
was 319 bushels.

mere formality to pave the way for

HURRY U. S. SHIPS TO CHINA
Admiral Murdoch Takes Three Cruis
ers to Protect American Mis-
sionaries From Rioters.

Washington.-All the American
naval strength deemed necessary as a
precaution is being concentrated as
near as possible to the scene of riot
ing and bloodshed in China.
Admiral Murdoch cabled to the navy
department that he sailed on his flag
ship Saratoga, accompanied by the
cruisers New Orleans and Helena
from Shanghai for Marking. The ad-
miraTs report contained nothing re-
garding the situation in China.
More than twenty rioters and a
number of soldiers have been killed
in battle during the past few days, re-
suIting from attacks Of the Infatuated
and dissatisfied natives upon the va
men, or residents Of Cheung-Tu and
SEE Chuen. This information, the first
news of bloodshed in the present dis
turbances, has reached the state de
partment.
Ringleaders of the agitation have
been arrested by the viceroy OF the
province This inflamed their follow
ers and resulted in a vicious attack
upon the Yamen, the residents OF
Cheng Tu and the viceroy by the mob
The soldiers fired into the rioters,
killing more than twenty of them.
The mob returned and in a subse'
quent assault upon the viceroy's resi-
dence slew a number of the troops.
Latest news in regard to the condi-
tons is unattainable as the telegraph
wires between Cheng Tu and Chung
king have been cut
Reports to the state department In
dictate that the American women and
children have already left Cheng Tu
under escort, and it is thought that
others also have depart.

Farmers Son Said to Have Con-
tessed to Tampering With Switch
Which Derailed 500 Train.

Fond du Lac.-LeOnard Fake, aged
10, son of a farmer near Fremont, has
been arrested on charge of tamper-
ing with the lock on the railroad
switch, causing the wreck of the Vel
vet special on the 500 line 1t is said
the boy was angered because Il sec
ton man refused him a ride on a
hand car and took that way to get
revenge. According to c. NJ Winter,
superintendent Of the Fond du Lac
division Of the road, the boy has ad-
mitted that he tempered with the
switch but said that he did not throw
it open.
Accompanied by 500 detectives and
officials FAKE is said to have gone to
the scene of the wreck and to have re
hearsed his part in the switch affair.
Supt. Winter estimates the loss to

STOLEN GIRL SLAIN
BODY OF GIRL KIDNAPPED FROM
MADISON, WIS, FOUND.
Proof of Stranging, but Police Believe
Annie Lemberger Was Muir
dered for Revenge.

Madison, Wis.-Annie Lemberge
seven years old, who was mysterious.
ly stolen from her bed on September
6, has been found. The child's body
naked, was taken from Lake Monona
She had been murdered before being
thrown into the lake. The cause Of
the crime still is a mystery.
There was no visible evidence of
violence so far as a superficial exam
nation disclosed beyond, perhaps, a
slight laceration of one ear. A dis
coloration on the neck, however, as II
from unnatural causes, may indicate
that the child was strangled. The lit
tie body was entirely nude and was
discolored, having been in the water
several days.
The body was found by George
Younger, a cement worker living at
South Madison. There was a peaceful
expression on the face of the child at
the undertaking rooms, where she
was brought by the police ambulance
in charge of Capt. Henry Davenport.
The most plausible theory is murder
for revenge.
The child was taken from her sleep
ing room at the home Of her parents,
Mar. ard Mrs. Martin Lemberger, early
in the morning of September 6. The
child was clad only in night gar
ment, but even this was gone. Long
brown hair, wet and bedraggled,
streamed down from the little head.
The body was found about a mile
from the stricken home. 1t may have
been dropped from the railroad bridge
across the bay. If not, then the child
was taken out in boat and thrown
overheard and drifted near the shore.

MAINE VETS" WIN
PROHIBITION CLAUSE KNOCKED
OUT OF CONSTITUTION BY
CLOSE MARGIN.
RESULT OF BITTER FIGHT
Governor May Call Special Session Of
Legislature to Enact Another
Law for Regulation of the Liquor
Business.

Portland, Me.-By a majority of
about 1,400 Maine abandoned the
principle of state prohibition and
erased from the constitution the pro-
hibitory amendment adopted in 1854.
About twenty-five small towns have
not been reported and the vote of
these, together with errors incident
to the collection of returns by tele-
phone, left the exact result in some
doubt.
One hundred and twenty thousand
voters cast ballots on the question
With the twenty-five towns missing
the vote was COSTS for repeal and

stitution

were the chief strongholds of the re-
peal faction, but the majority of
10000 in the total city vote was bare
ly sufficient, according to the latest
available returns, to Offset the vote

Although the vote did not equal that

been a Republican stronghold. the
election was one of the most interest
ing contests the state has ever known,
There was not a home in any sec
ton of the state which had not been
flooded with literature sent out by
both sides, while the voters were
waited upon by personal workers and
harangued at public gatherings, to
cast their ballots for or against re.
peal, as the case might be- The re.
suit was that hundreds of veters who
had not visited the polls for years
with the possible exception of last
year, were recorded.
There is said to every POSSIBLE
ity that Governor Plaisted may be
prevailed upon to call a special ses.
sion of the legislature to take action
on the repeal of the statute law
which, in effect, is the same as the
constitutional amendment, and the
enactment of another law for the regu.
lation of the liquor business. A local
option law such as prevails in Massa
chusetts is what the license advocates
seek.
