MISSING FROM SOUND BOAT
 AFTER STABBiNG AFFRA'

Upon the arriva1 at New London Wednesday morning of the steamer New Hampshire, an empleye in the boiler room of the boat was taken to the hospital with serious cuts made by a razor or knife in the hands of a negro porter, named John Love. who has disappeared. The boat was searched for the porter. but he could not be found and one supposition is while the steamer was coming up through the Sound. If he did not he is still secreted on the boat.
 Cunha was badly cut in the back by a razor or a carving knife He has a deep gash in the left inside of his back, another in his shoulder and a third in the back of the neck. His condition is not considered serious.
 Cunha was employed on the boat in the boiler room and he had an al- tercation with the negro porter.
 Following the assault the negro had. although the crew searched for him and probably would have handled him rather roughly if they had found him. When the boat docked the po- lice searched the boat.
 The negro porter's clothing was found or, the deck but no trace of the man was found, although every nook and corner were looked into.
 The affair occurred when the steamer was near the Bartlett Reef lightship, and it is now thought that the man may have become so fright ened when the crew started for him that he leaped overheard.
 At any rate he has not been located since the row and it is not known whether he really did jump from the steamer and possibly was drowned or was able to reach shore. With the water at it's present temperature it does not seem likely that anyone could remain alive in the water for any great length of time.

 Allenrhu has been tried and tested for years and really marvellous results have been accomplished In the most severe cases where the suffering and agony was intense and piteous and where the patient was helpless. Allenrhu relieves at once. Innmedi- ately after you start to take it the good work begins. It searches out the uric acld deposits, dissolves the secre- tiofis and drives rheumatic poison out Iof the body through the kidneys and bowels. M
 It's marvellous how quickly it acts Blessed relief often comes in two days and even in cases where the suffering is most painful all traces disappear in "a few days l Mir. James H. Allen, the discoverer of the torments or acute rheuma tism, de- sfres all slifferer5 to know that he does not want cent of anyones money unless AlleDrhu decisively conquers this worst of all diseases, and he has instructed Lee & Osg0od Co. to guar antee it in. every instance

TAKE STEPS TO RECOVER
POLYTECHNIC FUND

At Nashville Monday the state board
OF education unanimously instructed
Gen. Frank Thompson to take the
necessary steps to recover the sum of
81, $50 from Thos. A. Early, former
president OF the Tennessee Polytechnic
Institute at Cookville, it being claimed
by the board that this sum had been
withheld by Mr.. Early from funds adj
vanced tc the state for the work OF vo-
catienal rehabilitation OF soldiers. Mr..
Early, in letter to the board, is said
to admit that he has held back this
amount, but claims it as compensation
for his work in training three units of
fighting mechanics, and for a years
salary for vocational rehabilitation
work with the soldiers.
This appears to be the same pro-
fessor who was pushed away from the
