HAMMONToN, n. ~, Jan. 4.--As-
serting his belief that little Billy
panzey, of whose alleged murder
Charles S. White, is accused, is still
alive, John L. Griffin, forty-two, a
steeplejack of East Liverpool, Ohio,
arrived here today and spent some
time with the authorities at the home
OF Hercules Danzey, father of Billy,
and sat the residence of Charles s.
White. ...
Griffin, who said he made the trip
from Ohio at his own expense, said
he was confident that the child still
lives and that he knows where he Is
being held. The place where Billy
10 being hidden is in Oklahoma, he
declared, but it is not Coflinsville,
where he was recently enormously
reported to have been located.

possible to punish your conquered

Things in Europe are gradually,

 We know the origin of at least some of these \ bodies. Years ago a comet whose return had been cal cu1ated by the astronomers and con- fidently predicted surprised them by not making it's appearance at all. But, instead, there came at night a most plentiful meteoric shower. It was calculated that these meteors oc- cupied the identical cubit which the expected comet was to have tra- versed. The meteors, then, were the disintegrated parts of the comet, and still at the proper time interval, these particles make their appearances as luminous shooting stars. But it can not be said that all meteors are remnants of cometary matter. There is a possibility that some of them may have come originally from stars or star systems far outside that of the sun and were simply swept up by the latter.

 "I consider divorce the greatest eooaal and domestic danger of the present day. he said. ''It is a can cer eating into the moral vitals of this country and the world"
 Asked what he considers the rem- edy, the Cardinal said there are two: The religious one, through incu1cat- ing a realization of the duty of keeping the home together and un- def1ed, and a legal method, through the Jones bill recently proposed to Congress.
