Also Timothy speaks Of the

Now the Spirit speaketh ex

giving heed to seducing spirits,

Speaking lies in hypocrisy,

BOY HAS BEEN
ASLEEP FOR WEEK
'Four-Year-oid William Tucker Uncon-
scIous Since Last Friday Morn.
lng-FoIIowed Attack
Of Measles.
CASE Is PECULIAR ONE
Inconsistencies came the Fourth
Day After the Boy Had Broken
Out-Pressure on the
Brain Cause.
CASE Is PECULIAR ONE

William Tucker, four year old sor
Of Mr.. and Mrs. A. H. Tucker, 1905
Reid street, has been in an uncon
scious sleep since last Friday morn
ing at o'clock. His case is phe
nomenal one, physicians state, and sc
far as known, medical annals con
tain no similar one.
The sleep was caused by an infam
alton of the covering Of the brain
following measles. The lad became
unconscious the fourth DAY after he
had broken out with the measles and
had been in this condition since.
All cases of measles are followed
by slight inflammation of the covering
of the brain, but the inflammation In
this case has been very pronounced
and produced such a pressure that
Inconsistencies resulted.
DR.. William Rankin is attending
the boy and he declares that the
case is the first one Of its kind that
he has ever heard Of Wednesday
night and Thursday. the boy was
given a little nourishment by artifl
cial means His heart action Is good
but his respiration Is not normal to-
day, and his condition is not as favor
able as yesterday. When the boys
.eyelids are, opened they respond
slightly to light. The case is a
peculiar one and has attracted con,
siderable attention, especially among
physicians.

Daily Stock Letter.

rJJntted Press Leased Wire Service
NEW YORK, June 15.-The New
York Evening Sun financial review
said:
Trading In today's stock market
was characterized by considerable
confusion of sentiment. That the
Liberty loan would be over subscrib
ed had been discounted to some e&'
tent but 1t is doubtful If the most
optimistic estimates Of Wall street
had taken into account a total sub
scription of S2,500,000, 900 to $4,000
600 900 and a number of individual
buyers exceeding two million by
generous margin. It's influence or
the market was greatly tempered
however, by the course of money rates
which showed q marked inclination
to stiffen.
There was but scant public partict
patton in the trading. There was in
tervals Of fairly active covering by
the shorts and, again, offsetting fol-
both the short and long accounts II
the usual movement to adjust com
mittments for the week end.
After midday the general list re
ceded under the influence, presumably
of the approaching financing in con
nection with the war loan and also
with income tax, interest and divid
end disbursements, which are heavy
at the close Of the half year.
Trading in the lateF session was
sluggish and prices were soft, in some
cases distinctly weak such as Lacka
wanna and Bethlehem Steel issues
which sold with dividends off. U. S
Steel sold below 131 but recovered to
some extent.
