WHY ONE MAN KNELT
IN STREET TO PRAY

spite his frantic efforts to do so. This
is the story as Nick Kelley tells it.
Starts l'or Home
Tsurkgikos had been living with
friends in Canton, but had been sent
to New York to take a boat l'or his
own home in Greece. He has a fam
ily of several small children near
Athens. That John could speak no
English was not considered an ob
stacle to his safe journey because he
was provided with a proper ticket and
tag slating his destination. At Pitts
burgh, however, he missed connections
and wandered about there helpless un
til taken in and fed for a few days
by some Roumanians. Then they sent
him on his way again.
Wanders in Mountains
The traveler got as far as Harris
burg, helpless, hungry and nearly mad
with fright at his condition; he started
to walk —westwardly.
Somewhere in the mountains near
Rockville he became lost and wan
dered about for days. The story of j
that vain effort to lind his way home
isn't exactly nice, according to Xtck
Kelley's story. John Tsurkgikos wan
dered about in the snow and for food
dug up the fallen, half-rotted apples J
l'rom under the snow.
When he got lmck to Harrisburg lie
was ragged, unshaven, unkempt, liis
feet frozen, weak from loss of food.
Nobody could understand him; folks
laughed and thought him era/.y.
It was at Third and Walnut streets
that the story reached its climax. The
pretty girl awaiting a car was half
| frightened out of her wits when John
moaning Slim-thing she' couldn't un
| derstand, dropped on his knees before
j her and raised his clasped hands in
su pplica titm.
Tlu- I'raver of Tsurkgikos
] A policeman was immediately at
[hand and with a crowd following. John
was hustled to jail. Efforts to have
a lunacy commission appointed failed
because Warden Caldwell thought the
< ase ought to be further investigated,
lie tried every kind of an interpreter
lie could think, .Macedonian, Bulgar
ian. Servian. German, Russian—but
John couldn't make himself under
stood. Finally someone suggested
Nick Kelley. And Nick Kelley ex
plained the story in such a thorough
way that John was helped home.
"But why did he kneel before the
girl in the street?" Nick Kelley was
asked.
"Why." said Nick Kelley. "my
friend. John, had had nothing to eat.
he said, for four days and he was
nearly crazy with hunger. The lady
was well dressed and John thought
her rich. And when he knelt—he was
praying for food!"

Venustiano Car ran za in answer to the •
protest addressed to him by Secretary I
of State Bryan through United States
Consul Silliman regarding conditions,
in the city of Mexico last night ad-!

personally. He denies the responsibil

tor foreigners, but expresses the hope;
that Americans and citizens of other:
countries will lose no time in depart- 1

be restored. The Constitutionalist
chief pledges himself to provide every j
facility for the exodus which he rec-[

I was badly ruptured while lifting a

my only hope of cure was an operation.
Trusses did me no good. Finally 1 got
hold of something that quickly and
completely cured me. Years have ;
passed and the rupture has never re- !
turned, although 1 am doing hard work
as a carpenter. There was no opera

complete cure without operation, if

What Are Ashes?
Ashes are the "Mineral Impurities" like
hone, slate, iron and lime, that are left after
burning coal.
Ashes with a large amount of "Iron and Lime"
arc easily melted • together and are likely to
"Clinker" badly in a furnace.
It is important when buying coal to sec that you
get coal that has a minimum amount of "Mineral
Impurities."
You know coal is not all alike, there arc more
than 300 Anthracite Mines in this state so that a
dealer must understand his business to secure the
kind that will give the best results.
We recommend our Wilkes-Barre coal to be as
free from impurities as it is possible to get coal.
Xo coal is absolutely pure.

The method here suggested for the

To avoid disappointment, be sure your
