He Killed Goal .Operator,
(By 'Associated Press.) . ' -Johnstown,
Pa.,.. July. 19.-r7George C.
Tompkins, of Philadelphia, held in
conection with the shppttog., to -death
of Edmund L. Humphries, prominent
coal operator, his wife, .Mrs. Carrie
Humphries, and their 15-year-old son,
Edmund I. Humphries, Jr., on a coun
try road near Carrolltown, this coun
ty, last Sunday, confessed to the
three murders today, according to an
nouncement by the police. The con
fession was made in the presence of
Jailer Edward Knee, of. the county
jail, and Tompkins' attorney.
Tompkins was a member of the
Humphries automobile party. After
the shooting he went to the home of
a friend and declared that-the party
had,been held up by three masked
men. He maintained that the tbree
men had killed the members of the
Humphries party, but he escaped by
falling to the ground near the auto
mobile and pretending that he also
had been shot.
Qpnflicts in statements made by
Tompkins caused the search for the
highwaymen to be called off and a
coroner's jury investigating the mur
ders ordered Tompkins held for in
vestigation. Monday he was formal
in nhnre-pd with the murder. Evi
dence against Tompkins was consid
ered only circumstantial prior to his
confession.

Europe was emphasized today; by the

committee. ' -r. - : . .
"Expenditures in excess of $50,000,
000 for terminal storage areas at or
tnear the seaboard will undoubtedly be
necessary," said a committee state
ment. "Not a moment should be lost in
providing these facilities. The equip
ment which it is necessary to provide
for each soldier going overseasi
amounts to aDout 5 1-2 tons. This
storage- load will be put upon the na
tion before the end of the year. -We
must handle it, but to do so will re
quire carefully designed and equipped
areas probably 2,0000 acres in extent.
They must be in operation by Janu
ary 1, 1918.
"Both at the cantonments and at
the terminal depots on the 'Atlantic
seaboard it is essential that the stor
age areas should be of a size that will
permit immediate unloading of freight-cars."

To secure the best results and to develop the ensilage odor, wet t he hulls
thoroughly, twelve hours before feeding. It U easy to do this by
wetting then down night and morning for the next feeding. ' If at any time
this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to
feed the huUs, Iry, use only half as much by bulk as'of old style hulls.

LAST STAGES OF
RIGGS DISEASE
NEW YORK, N. Y. The following
distinctive features are observable in
the treatment of riggs disease, by pa
tients using pyorigg: The disease is
promptly arrested. The color of the
gums is restored to a healthy pink con
dit:on in the course of a few days.
Undue redness of gums disappears. In
flammation, soreness and sensitive
ness disappear. Gums build up and fill"
out, receding stops. Teeth lose their
yellow color. Separated teeth come
together. Loose teeth tighen up and
bleeding of gums ceases. Shrunken
gums are invigorated and healthified.
These are the results in most caset
or using pyorigg, a new prescription
specially for riggs disease, which
comes in the form of a medicated mes
sage ointment and is dispensed in
original packages, price one dollar, at
best drug stores, including Jarman &
