Posse on Secret Mission.
LAS VEGAS. N."3in April I. Though
the abduction and ranaomlng of Wal
lace Rogers, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. T.
Rogers, occurred three days ago, no
new arrests have been made and the
mystery surrounding the case seems to
be deepening. Persistent rumors to
day connect well-known persons In
Las Vegaa with the abduction, but
owing to reticence of the authorities,
no official confirmation or denial can
be secured. It has been reported of
ficially, however, that several suspects
are under surveillance.
It became known today that only one
man actually participated In abducting
the child from home, and It Is believed
the same man received th 11.000 re-r
ward paid for the child'a reeov-y.
There la doubt among the authorities
that others aided In the kidnaping.
Although everv member of the noted
mounted police Is working on the case
here with a large force of detectives,
tha prospects for an early arrest are
dwindling. This afternoon Captain
Fornoff. of the mounted police, headed
a heavily-armed posse In an automo
bile for a point south of Las Vegss.
Their destination and the object of
the expedition, are known only to those
In charge of the search. 1-ate this
evening the posse had not returned.

Scandal Is Whispered.
Mrs. Marv Adelaide Moore-Yerkes
was very happy -with her husband for
. V. wAririine-- Then.
one night, a friend of Yerkes whispered
a bit of scandal concerning her hus
band In Mrs. Yerkes" ear. She listened
and that whisper separated them for
ever afterward.
Mr. and Mrs. Yerkes never again
dwelt under the same roof. Yerkes
went to Europe and busied himself In
the traction field there. About four
years ago. after he had returned to
the United States, Yerkes died from
pneumonia, after a few days' Illness,
at the Waldorf-Astoria. There was no
reconciliation with Mrs. Yerkes.
About a year after the death of
Mr. Yerkes, his widow leaped Into the
limelight by quietly and suddenly mar
rying Wilson Mizner, a then obscure
playwright, considerably younger than
herself. Hardly had her friends recov
ered from the shock of this news than
they learned that her second marriage
had been a failure. Her married life
with Mizner lasted one week.
Mizner Cast Aside.
When the honeymoon was only be
gun. Mr. Mizner was cast aside by his
bride. She literally turned him out of
doors, at the same time announcing to
the rest of the world that she would
have nothing more to do with him.
In vain did Mizner hammer for admit
tance on the front door of Mrs. Yerkos
home. She heard him but wouid not
respond. He told his troubles to the
newspapers and cajoled, then threatened,
his aloofUh bride but she only reiter
ated her Intention of casting him away
forever. Mizner, who is said to have
visions of a slice of the Yerkes for
tune kept up his efforts at reconcilia
tion 'for a time and then, finally, sub
sided. Mrs. Yerkes made good her an
nouncements by divorcing Mizner a few
months after the marriage.
Mrs. Yerkes did not marry again.
Her playwrighting ex-husband has made
some strides in his profession since, be

Physicians Feel Hopeful That Con

of Curative Seruni-
-Disease
Is Like Consumption.
PBKIX. April 2. The Chinese have
made elaborate preparations for the In
ternational Medical Conference to begin
at Mukden tomorrow to Investigate the
plague. Doctors of many nations are in
attendance. Including some American
delegates and several Russian women.
Dr. R. P. Stromr. of the Bureau of
Science In the Philippine Islands, will
take a leading part, as he has been in
Mukden recently making a bacteriologi
cal study of the disease and endeavoring
to discover an effective toxin. The In
dian and other preparations have proved
unavailing, and only masks have been
found eftectlve In preventing infection.
Many marmots, from which the dis
ease was first contracted, have been col
lected for experiment at the conference.
Although no cure has yet been found,
the doctors feel confident from the
knowledge they 'have already gleaned
that eventually they will find a curative
serum.

methods employed on the lines generally
adopted against bubonic plague proved
fatal to several doctors.
Dr. Kltahato. the noted Japanese bac
teriologist, says that while no victims
. -loiriiA reenver. this dis-
ease Is more easily controlled than bu
bonic, as the pneumonic Is contracted
only from exhalations or expectorations,
which can easily be avoided. The bac
cili die quickly In dry air, therefore tto
fear of dust storms that have been preva
lent this season is groundless.
Disease Wke Consumption.
Dr. Kitaharo likens the pneumonic
plague to consumption. Although It is
a thousand times quicker In Its action.
It takes exactly the same channels of
transmission. He hopes the bacclli will
be exterminated when the dry weather
sets In. .
The railway zones are now nearly Tree,
but the Interior towns and villages still
suffer greatly.

stomach troubles, particularly dyspep
sia, after years of study perfected the
formula from which Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are made.

Bia Tablets leads us to believe them to
be the greatest remedy known for the
relief of acute indigestion and chronic
dyspepsia. Their Ingredients are sooth
ing and healing to the inflamed mem
branes of the stomach. They are rich
in pepsin, one of the greatest digestive
aids known to medicine. The relief

a short time brings about a cessation of
the pains caused by stomach disorders.

mote nutrition. As evidence of our sin
