took me in and gave me the place at
the head of his table with the right to
return the thanks for the meal or to
ask some one else to do it. Then each
morning and evening / am given the
privilege and honor to lead the family
worship and call on any one present to
lead in prayer or do that myself. These
are things that are done by the head
of the family alone in ordinary times,
but on occasions like this are given to
a visitor. The meetings here are going
on nicely and will continue through
Thursday of this week. In such meet
ings it is a custom to allow at each
service one minister to lead and one to
do the preaching. Being able to speak

CROWDlNG THE SEA SERPENT
Old Friend Of the Ocean Summer
Resorts Makes Way for Pirate
Ship From Russia.

We believe but one sea serpent has
been sighted so far this season. Per-
haps it is still a little early, but the
weather has been hot enough to bring
our old friend to the surface, and no
doubt the frightened and delighted
visitors at shore resorts and those
who go out to sea in boats for a
short distance will soon be rewarded
with a sight of his ugly head or fascl'
mated by the water Churned up by
the swishing of his angry tall. How
ever, it is possible, that the sight more
calculated to thrill will be the pirate
shin from Russia that rs moving TE
such a mysterious way its wonders TO
perform. If this is so, we are certain
that for every view of the sea ser
pent that is recorded on the part OF
credible witnesses there will be ~
equally credible witnesses who caught
n glimpse of the new terror of the
deep long. low and dark, either just
before it submerged or at the moment
II came to the surface to cast its eye
about for n new ship to capture and
sink or to drag away the crew in irons
to Bolshevik Russia. To the elderly

craft secured its necessary fuel th@
less critical young woman answered
that it probably operated by electric

Extra Precautions
Are Taken at Cell
OF Marion McArdle

Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 15-Extra
precautions were taken here today
to guard the cell of Miss Marian Nc
Ardle, awaiting trial for murder, as
the result of the discovery of the
plot to free the girls mother, Mrs.
Eva Catherine Kaber, from the
woman's reformatory at Marysville'
Officials feared that Miss Nc
Ardle might also hatch up a plot to
escape with the same Cleveland and
New York gangsters that negotiated
with her mother. A letter from the
girl to her mother gave the latter's
escape plans away.
Miss McArdle is to be tride Octo-
Der 8 for the killing of Daniel ka-
Der, wealthy publisher, for which
crime Mrs. Kaber is now serving a
life sentence. An appeal for bail
for the girl, made coincidentally at
the same hour the mothers escape
plot was barred, was denied by the
court.

ARE LEARNING ABOUT STARS
Men of Science Beginning to Believe
They Know Something Con-
corning the Subject.

The first successful attempt TO
measure stellar distances was made
in 1888 by BeSsel, who determined the
parallaX Of 81 Cygni, little star of
the sixth magnitude which had at
tracted attention by its great proper
motion of five seconds of arc year.
At the beginning Of the present cen
fury 40 or 80 parallaXes had become
known and in recent years progress
in measurement has BECOME very
rapid. Greenwich observatory reports
the determination of the parallaXcs OF
20 stars a year, while some American
observatories are doing even more.
American astronomers have in prepa-
ration a catalogue giving the paral-
lakes of 5000 stars and it is expected
that within a very few years the dis
tanceS of all stars visible to the naked
eye ia the northern hemisphere will
iiavr srvn nuuc KNOWN, as wen as
those of many fainter stars. The
parallaXes are determined by both
trigonometric and spectroscopic meth
eds, while a third method can be ap-
piled to many double stars.
