YOUNG GIRL KILLED IN SIGHT OF HOME Body of Sevein Year Old Child Found Buried in Cellar. Negro Sought by Police of New Jersey Town But Not Located. Moorestown, N. J., June 11.-The body of seven year old Matilda Russo, who had been missing since last Sat urday evening, was found today bur ied in the cellar of a negro's shack, not more than 30 yards from her own home. The child had been stripped of clothing and the throat and abdo men deeply cut, or hacked. She was the daughter of Michael Russo, a tailor. Police of Burlington and Camden counties tonight are seeking Lewis Lively, a 35 year old negro, in whose cellar the mutilated body was found. The crime was discovered yesterday and kept secret by the authorities for 24 hours, in hope of capturing the negro and the fear that if it became known summary vengeance might de scend upon him because of the in flamed sentiment of the townspeople. While the authorities at first an nounced the little girl had been mis treated, a physician after an autopsy today expressed his opinion that she had not been attacked. In the Lively house there is a small negro who his wife adopted. This child and the Russo children, who are of Italian parentag', had frequently quarreled bitterly, the police say, in explaining their belief that the mur der was the result of a race fued. Lively's wife and the negro boy are being held as witnesses. They could give no explanation of the disappearance of Lively. They, N? -TABLE.TS 0l Sil Nofter Eot ~e r long-costs s somuhfo SUAS had been away on a week's visit, and were taken into custody upon their return last night. SPEECH BY SIMS ANGERS CONGRESS Washington, June 9.-Cognizance Iwas taken in both the senate and house today of the recent speech in London of Rear Admiral William S.' Sims, referring to Irish sympathizers in this country. The senate ordered its naval committee to investigate the speech. In the house, Representative Ryan, Republican, New York, sub mitted a resolution for an investiga tion charging that the remarks had constituted an attack upon loyal cit izens of the United States of Irish blood and accused American citizens of being traitors. Secretary Denby awaited a reply today to his formal inquiry cabled to Admiral Sims asking whether the re marks attributed to him had been correctly reported in press dispatches, 1but left his office without having re ceived a reply. Meanwhile official comment is with held at the department. The senate resolution was intro duced by Senator Harrison, Democrat,. Mississippi, and was adopted with lit tle debate and without record vote. Senator Wadsworth, Republican, New, York, asked whether the action taken' by Secrctary Denby would not serve the same purpose as the resolutions." "Possibly so," Mr. Harrison replied,. "but I think the charges in this case are so grave that the senate can not afford to ignore them." .s D fit"G CO. W E N BROS. MARBLE & GRANITE CO.

Washington, June 11.-A modest little local brief in.the journal of this universe, "hich a physicist believes to have son- limit, even though one astronomer now conceives it to be a thousand times larger than we thought it, might read like this: "On June 27 the tiny planet, Earth is expecting to see sparks (meteoric showers) from the swish of the 2,000, 000-mile tail of the comet, Pons-Win necke, which will just miss hitting earth by only 12 million miles." "Though we are not certain of the exact nature of these 'hairy stars', as tronomers believe comets are made up of small particles, very far from each other, surrounded by masses of gas," explains a bulletin from the Washing ton, D. C. headquarters of the Na tional Geographic Society. "The main body of a comet varies from a few hundred to a few thous and miles in diameter, and its tail, which makes it as spectacular among heavenly bodies as the. tail of the peacock makes him in the bird world, measures from a few million to more than a hundred million miles in length. I'ail Turns From Sun "The tails of comets have some pe culiar characteristics. They always turn away from the sun, and they in crease and decrease with astonishing rapiolity, the sun evidently causing them to lengthen enormous;ly. Though its volume is very great, the actual mass of a comet is very small. Scien tists tell us that the average density of a comet is but a fraction of that of the air near the earth's surface, and that the density of the extremity of the tail is, of tLourse, very much less. "This is evident from the fact that these bodies, which are so much larg er in volume than the planets, are de flecting from their orbits by the plan ets, which are not even disturbed enough by their appearance for any observations to be taken of it. Even when a comet passes through Jupi ter's satellite system in I S8I not a moon veered from its course, but the comet totally changed its orbit as a result of the magnetic force exerted. That the substance of comets and their tails is much raref~ed is further apparent because even the faintest of the visible stars (an be sevn through them. "Work associated with the behavior and the nature of comets and their orbits is vet in its infan,:y, and the. 1: nowledge that the spectroscope re veals regarding t heir composition is confusing.
