WOMAN WITH HER PARENT
SHE HADN’T SEEN 40 YEARS
PATERSON, N. J„ Nov. 12.—As
the result of a dream, a lapse of
more than forty years was spanned
and Mrs. Janet Miller, of this city
is reunited with her father, whom
she had not seen since she was six
! years old. She long had believed
him to be dead.
After dreaming of seeing her fa
ther alive a few days ago, Mrs.
Miller inserted an advertisement in
a newspaper asking information re
garding her father, who, she said
in the notice was a sea captain
and had a name that sounded like
McKiltop. She was a child wrhen
she last saw her father in Brooklyn.
She had been brought up in the
Brooklyn home of the late Henry
Ward Beecher, she said.
Meanwhile, John Rosenthal, of
Springfield, L. I., had in his em
ploy a watchman named Hector Win
■ Chester, who had often spoken to
- him of a lost daughter. Winches
g ter said that his wife had died
about 1880, and he had placed his
daugnier in the care of a noted
Beecher, being poor and unable to
care for her and carry on his work
at a flour mill on • the waterfront,
where he had been employed.
Rosenthal made several efforts
io help his watchman find the miss
ing daughter. When Mrs. Miller’s
advertisement appeared, he showed
it to Winchester, but the later, af
ter reading about “McKiltop, the sea
captain,” refused to consider the
matter any further. Rosenthal, how
ever, was not satisfied and com
municated with Mrs. Miller and even
_ tually brought about a meeting that
, established the relationship.
Mrs. Miller explained her idea
of her father being a sea captain
from the impression she had receiv
ed of ships on the waterfront when
her father used to leave for work
in the morning. Winchester corrob
orated this. The age at which the
girl was placed in the Beecher home,
the description of the waterfront
given by Winchester and Mrs. Miller
dovetailed so closely that no doubt
now remains in the mind of either.

GERMAN PROHIBITIONISTS ARE
SEEKING HELP FROM CHURCHES
BUECKEBURG, Germany, Nov. 12.
—“Every nation has its special de
vil, and the German people has the
drinking devil,” said Dr. F. O. Melle,
of Frankfurt, at a congress of the
German League for Prohibition held
here recently. Only the influence
of true Christianity can save the
German nation from this devil, in
the opinion of Dr. Melle.
The detrimental effect of alcohol
on the German people was illustrat
ed by figures given by Dr. Strecker,
president of the league, who pointed
out that three and a half billion
marks are consumed annually in
Germany by drinking. Altogether
the damage done by alcohol to the
people may be figured at six bil
lion marks, according to Dr. Sleek
er, who added: “Clever Americans
knew what they could achieve by
prohibition; sober and dry nations
will lie the future leaders of civiliza
tion.
George Michaelis, one time chan
cellor, referred to the connection of
alcoholism with sexual excesses, con
tending that the church could con
tribute greatly to the wiping out of
alcoholism, which is mainly a mat
ter of education.
“The Protestant church of Ger
many has failed utterly so far, in
asmuch as it did not make the al
cohol question an issue of its own,”
said Herr von Wicht, a parson from
Bielefeld. He added that new hopes
in this direction might be harbored
since the separation of church and
state.
Several new cases of la grippe are
reported by Dr. Baughman. The re
cent fine spell of weather was appa
rently more than our people could
stand.
Owen McDavitt and Joe Wrotner
were arrested recently at Juneau
charged with impersonating an offi
cer. They passed themselves off as
prohibition officers it was said.
