The Miracle Man.

IIJHAT the skepte says Of the works Of James Moore

there be skePes does not matter What the sufferer who
comes to him for help says about it is what counts.
Mr. Hieson does not advertise He conducts propa-
ganda He does not swish anything to anybody, to
phrase from the vernacular Moreover he makes no
charge but goes his way up and down IN the earth

And who shall say he does not heal-or better, who
SHAH say the Lord God of Hosts does not him as an

It doubtless does But suppose It does, whose Is the
credit? Where FROM where get our life, the

religion promises to penetrate before science.
the apostles Of Jesus Of Nazareth performed miracles
why consecraed followers of the Christ perform
such miracles now? We must either believe the former
not true that the latter is possible There is
other alternative to the Christian.
The world gradually is coming out Of the mateIiarsm
in which it has been engrossed for many years We

There stranger things, in fact, than dreamed

IS the fact that somewhere in the world is who is

Zelenska, arrested in Pittsburgh, left
his home in East New York. a few
hours before the explosion in Wall
Street on September JIG, and has not
returned since. He carried a large
reddish-yellow bag.
The facts were discovered here to-
day by agents of the Department oil
Justice, who were sent to Zelenska's
room at the home of Michael Ter
hasky, a tailor. Terhasky told the
detective that Zelenska was a quiet
man and never was suspected of hav-
ing radical tendencies. He had lived
in the room for about six months,
he said.
Zelenska's room was-opened by the
United States operatives, who search
ed drawers of a dresser and a large
trunk left behind by Zelenska- They
found a pay envelope, they said,
which showed that zelenska had
worked for the Hercules Powder
Company, and must have had some
knowledge of explosives. They also
found he had worked as a motorman
on the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
pany. and also as butcher.
The trunk, foreign-made. was
crammed with Russian literature OF
various Sorts. Among TINS was 1ounu
"A considerable amount of radical mot
ter. the agents said. They also said
that Zelenska had lived in Pitts
burgh and in woodman, w. Va.

The documents and all literature
found in the mans room wereN taken

being carefully examined by Chief

helpers.
Terhasky supplied tho facts OF
Zelenska's departure from home the
