MISSING SINCE LAST DECEMBER Lono Search For Little Niece of Mil- onaire Louisville Brewer End. In Grewsomo Discovery Dismem bered Remains Indicate Crime. Louisville, Ky May 31. Every de tective In Louisville is striving to un ravel the ballling mystery of the trag edy which overtook little Alma Kell ner, eight years old. Ail alarm hns been sent to the police of the entire world to seek Joseph Wclldllllir. nirpd tufnf-v.Hivn Innltnr of st. Jolms Koman h h nt the time Alma Kellner disappeared. It is suspected that he has some knowledge of tho crime. Wendling disappeared from tlds city on Jan. 14, leaving his wife, who is housemaid for Father George Schuhmanu, pastor of St. John's, without so much as a word. It is alleged that a carpet, which was wrapped around the body of Alma, belonged to Wendling, and the police have found clothing of his which they believed Is blood stained. A mi croscopic and chemical examination will be made of tho clothing. The decomposed body of the child who mysteriously disappeared from" her home last December was found in n subbasement of St. John's school nt Clay and Walnut streets. The body was lying in throe feet of water. The body was positively Identified ns that of Alma Kellner by her uncle. Frank Fehr. a millionaire brewer of this city. The condltlou of the body indicated that it had been in the hiding place for several months and that a crude at tempt to bury it had been made. The discovery was mnde shortly before 10 o'clock yesterday morning, nnd Chief i Llndsey, who hurried to the scene in an automobile, said he had no doubt it was the body of the missing child. The decaying torso, for a limb was missing, was wrapped In a piece of carpet. The missing limb was found In nnother part of the cellar, the foot bearing the shoe. The latter feature is puzzling the police. Alma Kellner disappeared Dec. S. and from Jlmi time until the body was found the case has been n mystery. She left her home on the morning hi question to attend a service at St. John's church, and the last seen of her was when she waved good by to her mother lu front of the residence. Tho search for the missing girl extended all over the United States, and thou- e l ,1.1 a ..f .lr.11.ivc! n-nl-n .,-... t.il ...1 I... I.nx relatives lu the effort to locate her. The lwdy was found by a plumber j who had been sent Into the cellar to , stop a ionic in a wuier pipe which nau I Hooded the basement. i Chief of Police Llndsey nnd Coroner 1 Kllls Duncan, who came hurriedly to I ll,u tC1-'1"-'' announced that the body i ws tllat of Alum Kellner, and the 1 ''-'' lar gave it out that he believed , ,l hc a easu of murder. I UI1U nunureu ciimiren conveneu in several rooms of the first nnd second I were nurneuiy dismissed rrom j their classes and sent home when the ! " was reported to those In charge I of t" school. ! ''''e torso was found wrapped in a piece of carpet, save for ono limb, which was later discovered In a cor ner of the cellar and hurled lu the clu.i floor of the basement to a depth of perhaps three feet. Lamps were quick ly brought and the relatives of the child summoned. Frank Fehr, the millionaire brewer and uncle of the girl, made a hasty examination and stnted that the body was that of Alma, fur whom lie had been scorching for months. A ring on tho child's linger wits expected to final ly establish her identity. The school adjoins St. John's church, where the Kellner family worshiped It was to attend services at St. John's church on the morning of Dec. 8 last that Alma left homo, about a quarter beforo 0. Sho wnB seen a few moments later as she neared the church by a druggist, who noticed her stopping for a moment to play vjltli a cat which was sitting in tho window of tho store.

IS LARA 1SJEPULSED Storming Forces Driven From Bluefields. HEAVIEST FIGHTING OF WAR. Nicaraguan Government Less Hopeful of Early Crushing of War Venus Misses Clash With Gunboat. More Marines Landed. Bluefields, .May 31. General Lara, commanding the Nicaraguan regulnr forces, made an unsuccessful attempt to rush the trenches hold on the left think of General Estrada's position. The fighting was the heaviest that has taken place during the operations around Bluefields, nnd the losses were proportionately severe. It Is reported on what seems to be excellent authori ty that the dead nnd wounded in tho struggle alone will foot 250. The rev olutionists captured WO prisoners, most of whom were In shocking phys ical condition and who agree In the belief that General Lara h'as abandon ed hope of carrying Bluefields by storm as lie evidently expected to do. Tho provisional government here has issued a decree transferring the cus toms house from Bluellelds bluff to the ninin harbor. Ships arriving are now compelled to transfer their freight and passengers to the schooner Cnyc, which Is stationed three miles off the mouth of the harbor of Escondldo. It is learned that there was nearly a clash on last Friday night between the Madrlz guuboat Venus and tho American man-of-war Pnducah. Irias, the commander of the Venus, gave no tice that It was his Intention to bom bard the Estrada trenches. In order to reach theln with his guns It would have been necessary to throw shells over the city proper. The commnnder of the Paducah cleared ills vessel for nction and notified the Nicnraguans that he would sink the Venus if a sin gle shot was tired. The Venus with drew from her position and has kept In the background since. More marines from Colon have been landed here. It Is recognized that their presence was needed, as the sit uation is exceedingly critical. Details of the capture of Bluellelds bluff seem to confirm the charges of treachery on the part of General Zeledon, who was accused ut the time. While the loss of the position was a heavy blow o Estrada, it is not believed now that they can take the city even by siege. MEAT DEARER IN ENGLAND.

Abraham's wife, saran, nau oeen set to make cakes, and Abraham "ran unto tho herd, nnd fetched a calf tendor and good," and it was dressed. When all was ready for tho feast, we are told In tho eighth verso of tho chap ter quoted "And he (Abraham) took butter and milk and tho calf which he had dressed, and sot It before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat." Tho butter here referred to was, how over, not tho same as tho butter which is so widely used In tho west ern countries to-day, but Is said to have been more in tho nature of curdled milk. Probably olive oil oc cupied the same position In the dietary of thoso days that butter does among us. It is believed by the Ajabs that the process of making butter was divinely revealed to Abra ham, who handed the knowledge of It to tho world through his posterity; others assert that when Hngar, with her child, was sent away by Abraham and was perishing with thirst In tho wilderness, an nngel brought her a refreshing draft of this "oriental nectar." which has ever since been held In the highest esteem by all true Ishmaclltcs.
