pose that the professor knew anything
more than he disclosed, but, just for
the sake of appearance, and to satisfy
the public mind, which was excited to
the point of frenzy, the officers asked
permission to search the professors

sion was cordially given. The learned
man showed the officers around every
where, and begged them to make their
search exhaustive, and they did.
They searched his offices and labora-
tories three separate times, and dis
covered nothing suspicious. Mean
while other officers were dragging
every pool and creek, and crawling
under buildings, and o%verturning hay
mows, in a vain effort to find a trace
of the missing man. After a week of
this sort of thing the police confessed
themselves hopelessly bafied, and
freely expressed the opinion that the
mystery never would be solved.
Everybody had a theory explaining
the disappearance, and only one Of

would say that they have become Evo-
~lutionists and Higher Critics. that they
have adopted the opposite theory to the
Bible-the Evolution theory.
From the standpoint of Evolution
there could be no Justice, no propriety
of any kind, in a Ransom-sacrifice by
a Redeemer. According to the Evolu-
ton theory, mar is merely developing.
and is not yet perfect, not yet ready
for trial along perfect lines. but Is
merely merging from a brute to an in
telligent creature. Evolutionists would
claim that without any redemption or
any interference whatever upon Gods
part the process of Evolution will con-
tinue until by and by there will be a
family of mankind hat will reach an
~aristocracy of wisdom. efficiency and
power which will enable them to live
everlastingly by their own wits.
Small comfort Is there in this for
EvolutiOnists of today or of the past
If they boast of their children, of the
future and of the everlasting life to
which these children will gradually
evolve. they admit that personally they
have nothing beyond the tomb; that
any future life on their part will be
representatively in their children. As
for their parentage, some of them do
seem to boast of their ancestry, after
all-that they were monkeys, frogs and,
earliest of all. simply %protoplasm.

These theories are the products of

According to Reports Troops Have Been Landed at PhaIeron, Five Miles Southwest of Athens and
 Also at Pireaus.

Berlin.-A note to the Greek gov ernment, amounting to an ultimatum, is said by the Overseas News Agency to have been presented by France and Great Britain.
 According to a Sofia dispatch to the news agency, Greece is required to deliver their passports to the min isters of the central powers within AS hours, failing which the entente will take necessary measures"
 Berlin dispatches which have not been corroborated from French or British sources, stated that unusual measures were being taken by the al lies in Greece. According to these re- nerts, allied troops were landed at Phaleron, five miles southwest of Athens, and also at Pireaus, the port of Athens. In this connection the Overseas News Agency of Berlin said:
 "The fact that the British are blockading the Greek coast most tightly and are subjecting Greece to other inconveniences, is interpreted by Berlin newspapers as meaning that the entente is preparing the overthrow of the Greek government to substitute republic with Venizelos at Its head

MEXICAN PROBLEM
 ENGAGES CONGRESS-
ISSUES ARISING FROM EURO PEAN WAR HAVE BEEN COM
 PLETELY OVERSHADOWED.

Washington.-The problem of se- curing protection for American life and property in Mexico, revived by the Santa Ysabel murders, is expected to be dominant subject in the pro- ceedings of Congress. Issues arising from the European war have been completely overshadowed by it and other important legislative measures under consideration are not drawing ordinary attention.
 There is sure to be more of the fer vid discussion of the Mexican prob lem that enlivened sessions of the past week Members unanimously insist the Santa Ysabel bandits be punished, but the majority opposes intervention.
 Mexico will be the basis of formal consideration by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, when the nomi- nation of Henry Fletcher as ambassa- dor to General Carranza's government will be taken up. Opposition sena- tors will oppose confirmation yigor- ously and it generally is admitted nothing can be done toward eonfirma- tion until the Republicans have been appeased by an aswer from President Wilson to Senator Falls resolution asking for reasons which led to rec ognition of Carranaza.

 Be an American.

El Pase.-Gen. Carranza telegram. ed the Mexican embassy that he had formally proclaimed Francisco Villa an outlaw and authorized his execu- ton by any citizen of the republic who might encounter him.

 Three soldiers and a number of min. ing men, residents at Doyles Wells. are said to have participated in the ikirmish. The bandits, according to Lee, retreated into Mexico.
 The Parral camp of the Alvarado Mining Company was raided by Villa bandits, who killed the Chinese cook. wounded the watchman, who was said to be an American, and footed the company store, according to reports received by mining company officials here.
 Fifteen foreigners remained in Par. ral, according to refugees who arriv- ed here day or two ago, but the ad- vices received by the Alvarado Com pany officials did not indicate that any of these had been molested.
