 Dressed in the Ieight of fashion, man of unusual learning and with manner that is captivating, Guth- ridge pulled off his last forgery here on March 29. He forged check for $120 on Be.lin Brothers and although the forgery was discovered before he left the ct ty, he managed to elude the offers by driving to a nearby sta tion and boarding :he outgoing train.
 Constable Stewart flooded the neighboring cities with description of the man and received word few days later that P'nkerton and Burns men had been after Gutheridge for mary months.

Tribute for Smith.

New York April 19.-Just before going aboard the Carpathia to resume his interrupted trip, Captain RostroI paid high tribute to the couage and seamanship of the i'll fated Titantic's commander, Captain E. J. Smith.
 q wish you would deny in as strong language as permissible the persistent report sent out by some press concern that Captain Smith killed himself when he realized that the Titantic was doomed.'' said Cap tain Rostron. T have it from the lipe of members of his crew, who tried to save his life, that he did not commit suicide. lie stuck to the ship until he was washed from the bridge. Then some of his men caught him and landed him safely on the edge of life boat. But he stumbled back into the ocean and went down He had been too weakened by hard knocks while being tossed about the singing Titantic to hold to anything. The knocking about he encountered on the wrecked ship had dazed him and left him i'll no condition to exert even his remaining strength.
 "Captain Smith was one of the cool est. bravest and most careful com mandere I ever knew. His seaman ship was of the highest order. Too high tribute cannot be paid to him by anybody who knew him."

J. BRUCE ISMAY TESTIFIED BE- FORE SENATE COMMITTEE
 YESTERDAY
ROSTRON TEsTIFIES
Commander of Carpathia Says Re- ceipt 0f Message From Titarc
 Was PrOyideRltaL

New York, April 19-While further details of heroism that distinguished the fate of those who went down with the Liner Titanic were being told today, J. Bruce Ismay, president of the International Mercantile Mar ine' was testifying before the Senate Investigating Committee, which will attempt for the United States gov ernment to fix the blame of the dis aster
 Whether the Titanic was attempt ing 70 establish record on her maiden voyage, which Ismay denied. she was steaming at rate of 21 kncts or 26 miles all hour through dangerous ice fields, which had been reported to the Titanic as being in tie vic nity of her course.
 The first session of the Investigas- ing Committee was held in the East room of the Waldorf Astoria and was conducted by Senator William A. Smith, of Michigan, and Senator NeWlards, of Nevada.
 "We left Queenstown about mid- day Thursday" said Mr. Ismay, "and with seventy revolut ons our first days run waG 4S0 miles, I believe. 1 The second day we went up tc severn ty-two revolutions, and made, ] think, 519 miles. The third day we made seventy five revolutions and ran 546 or 549 miles, am net sure which. Our capacity was seventy eight revolutions and we expected to run at pull speed on Monday after- noon if the weather was f ne, but the disaster stopped that"
 'iDid you have an knowledka of the iceberg?" the witness was asked.
 ''I heard they were reported" was the reply.
 Did you know that you were near icebergs on Sunday"
 "I knew we would be near their vicinity sometime Sunday night"
 The witness said he d'd no. know what time the accident happened. He was in his stateroom at the time. He got up and dressed and went out. He went upon tEe bridge and was told by Captain Smith that the ship was in serious danger. Captain Smith gave the orders to lower the lie boats and Ismay left the bridge. He then helped to place the women and children in the boats. Regarding his own escape he said: "One of the boats was being filled. Officers call led out to whom if there were women to go. There was none and no passengers left on the deck. As the beat was being lowered I got in to it. There were four of the ships crew and the quartermaster in the boat was in.'' "
 Mr. Ismay was told to hold 'm- self in readiness to return to the witness stand tomorrow morning.
 Captain Arthur H. Rostron was called to the witness stand and Ewore: q sailed on the Carpathia from New York for Gitra!tar on

EreniHg Journal in giving the report of
Miss Jane V. Goessling (head of the

"Miss Goessling is enthusiastic over
the manifestation of civic consciousness
as displayed in the awakened interest in
behalf of not only pure food, but also
of its proper eparation-excellent dem

different departments of the exhibition.
The phlanthropic work of the " Associat-

hibit was held has to do with the estab-
lishment of free cooking schools, seven of
which have been maintained in Chicago,
and three in New York; and thousands

Missionary Exposition
in Baltimore

All anticipations concerning The World
in Baltimore Missionary Exposition have
been exceeded by the attendance which
has marked the enterprise since the open
ing day, October 25th. Successful as
were the Boston and Cincinnati exposi-
tions, the one now in progress in Balti-
more is more so, both in point of num-
bers of people entertained and in inter
city churches. Some indication of the
crowds which have marked the special
days can be gained from the fact that at
the special mass-meeting for children
Sunday, Nov. 3D. not only was the Lyric
theatre, auditorium and galleries com
petely filed, but, after the Missionary
Play Hall and the Lecture Hall (the. two
accommodating perhaps six hundred peo-
ple) had been filed, an open air program
was given to satisfy the thousand or
more people who camored for entrance
which could not be granted them.
II mere 10 'iont raw loi supremacy III
popularity on the part of the Exposition
Hall, the Pageant Hall, and the Mission
ary Play Hail. In the Exposition Hall
the exhibits of nations, with the hundred
or more daily demonstrations by stew
ards in costume, attract much attention.
But at 3 clock in the afternoon and
s clock in the evening, this attention
is transferred to large degree to the
Pageant Hall, or Lyric Auditorium,
where the Pageant of Darkness and Light
is given by east of local talent which
now has reached a superb stage of train
ing. The pageant is decidedly ma
jestic spectacle carried out with the
dignity deserved by its theme, its setting
and the accompanying music.
The Missionary Play Hall is not be-
hind the others in claiming its share OF
patronage, and its seating capacity OF
about 400 is tested almost daily. Perhaps
the most popular features of the play
hall are the two plays by Miss Helen l.
Wilcox, 1.-The Pilgrimage and "Twt

costume lectures are proving very pop
