PUBLIC MEETING CALLED
 IN BEHALF OF STARVING
 CHILDREN OF NEAR R,EAST

The Rev. Thomas Jenkins of Port land, who is in the territory for the month of August in behalf of Ar menian and Syrian relief, arrived in Cordova on the Alaska.
 MT. Jenkins is not stranger to the North, having spent the years from 1902 to 1910 in the district. He was the first priest to visit Cordova in the early days. He built St. Johns church, hospital and school at Ketchikan, and had a part in the building of the church in Seward While here he ex- poets to visit Kennecott, and McCar- thy, and later to proceed to the towns to the westward.
 A public meeting in Cordova is be- ing arranged for, but the date and place of holding the same will be an nOunced after further conference with local people.
 MT. Jenkins is staying at the North ern hotel, where he may be reached. He comes at the invitation of the American committee. He reports the need in Armenia more acute than at any time in the past. Not until the peace conference determines the fate of Turkey and appoints a mandatory for Armenia can the refugees return to their homes.
 Nearly half a million children alone are being kept alive by gifts from America, says MT. Jenkins.

That afternoon her eess body was found in her rooms
She had been poisoned by some narcotic drug.
What had happened? Whose hand had supplied the
drug? The London authorities instantly set themselves
about the task of unraveng the mystery of the tragedy
of the Victory Ball
And then began a series of revelations of the dark
side of Londons night life which rival anything the
stage or in the movies.
Indeed, from beginning to end there seemed nothing

Among such galaxy of stage favortes it was to be
expected that intimately interested millionaire would
be uncovered The coroner easily found one. Mr. John
Marsh retired gentleman of means had been friend In

frequently in large amounts i'm fact the day Of
the ball he let her have something than 900 to get
her Jewels out of pawn for the occasion.

The actress inquired of the attendant at the door Mrs
Castle had come home, and told that she had not
yet returned from the ball
Before they went upstairs Billie Carleton asked the
clerk to let her know when Mrs Castle came In as she
wished to her wonderful dress. Why Billie Carleton
should have been DESTROYS Mrs. Castle when she
had spent the whole night at the ball with her has
been fully explained But among the four thousand
patrons the ball it perhaps surprising that they

The party went upstairs to Billie Carleton's fat and

Various witnesses disagreed about the time
Then Billie Carleton came back and she and her friends

At about o'clock in the morning the visitors left
Billie Carleton apparently sleeping peacefully in her
apartment They her again alive. Late in
the morning her maid, May Booker looked in once or
twice and heard her breathing heavily unusually So At
$50 in the afternoon the maid peeped in again and found
that the breathing had ceased.
She became frightened, and sent for doctor. The
first one that came was Dr. Frederick Stewart friend

been with her at the ball. He at that she was

An inquest at the Westminster COroner's Court in

Unexpectedly the coroner Mr. lngeby Oddie by his keen
