Rockefeller is said to have been discovered in his own office transacting business as usual. Some of the best detectives have been trying to locate him. The New York legislative committee has made its report. The management of the big insurance companies is severely criticized. Immediately following the report eight bills were introduced in the legislature radically changing insurance laws. Mrs. Julia Ward Howe is seriously ill. Susan B. Anthony is stricken with paralysis. Russia is renewing her encroachments in Mongolia. Garfield denies he promised the beef packers immunity. General A. W. Greely is now in command of the Pacific squadron. George W.

The Ohio legislature has passed a resolution asking its United States senators to vote for the railroad rate bill. Germany is sure to make some trade treaty with the United States, as she cannot get along without our cotton and copper.

Bill Allowing Courts to Adjust Claims for Compensation. Washington, Feb. 23. — A favorable report was made today on Senator Fulton's bill which permits owners of sealing vessels seized tor pelagic sealing in Behring sea to go into the Circuit court for the Ninth circuit to recover from the government an amount equal to the loss they sustained through the seizure of their vessels. Years ago, when Pehring sea was held to be a closed sea, the United States claimed jurisdiction over the east half and Russia over the remainder, and sealing was prohibited. Many sealing vessels were captured by the two governments. The Supreme court subsequently held Behring sea to be an open sea and denied the jurisdiction of this government beyond the three marine leagues limit. Following this, British sealers whose vessels were taken by American revenue cutters sued and recovered from the United States, and owners of American ships taken by Russians recovered from that government. But this government has never paid the claims of American sealers whose vessels were illegally seized by the American government. It is to pay these claims that the bill is pressed. In the aggregate it is not believed the claims will exceed $1,000,000. 'TWIXT HOPE AND FEAR. Morocco Delegates Doubtful of Success of Conference. Algeciras, Feb. 23. — Although the Franco-German deadlock remains unbroken, the opinion of the delegates to the Moroccan conference fluctuates as to the results, the view today being rather more hopeful that some solution is possible. This is due largely to the German attitude that an adjustment eventually will be reached. The American delegates also continue confident, despite the French and British pessimism. Some of the delegates express the view that some conciliatory movement will be made directly from Berlin. For the afternoon session the conference settled a few minor points on the bank question, including the adoption of a gold basis. The Italian delegates are discussing the possibility of the appointment of a number of the conferences as arbitrators for the settlement of the controversial points of the French and German projects, should agreement relative to the majority of the details be attained. Ambassador White persists in his optimistic view of the ultimate result of the conference. RUSSIA WILL BRAND COWARDS Officers Who Surrendered Without Cause To Be Disgraced. St. Petersburg, F. . 23. — Unprecedented regulations to purge the army of officers accused of cowardice and surrendering during the war for no reasonable cause were announced today by the military organ, the Russky Invalid. Captive officers returning from Japan will, unless they were wounded when captured, be tried before courts of honor, and unless reinstated by the unanimous decision of their fellow officers, will be dismissed in disgrace. "Contasions," a frequent excuse for surrender, will not be accepted. The higher officers who were responsible for the surrender of their organizations must secure a vindication from a court of honor and the minister of war. Such cases will be submitted to the emperor individually. The troops which composed the garrison at Port Arthur are exempt from these provisions, the responsibility for the surrender of that fortress falling upon General Stoessel. Men Won't Let Women Talk Washington, Feb. 23. — Discord in the congress for uniform divorce laws became so great this afternoon that Miss Fannie Leake Cummings, the sole representative of Washington state, withdrew and left for her home. Her reason was "the men won't let the women talk." Of these offenders, she said, ministers were the worst. It was earlier in the day, while she was making a speech on the "Real Causes of Divorces," that C. Larue Munson, of Philadelphia, asked her to cease, because he considered her remarks "nauseating." Condemns Export Tax on Goal. London, Feb. 23. — The British export tax on coal apparently is slated for removal in on the forthcoming budget of Chancellor of the Exchequer Asquith. Mr. Asquith informed a deputation today that, while he declined to make any declaration in regard to the taxation until he presented the budget, he considers the coal tax vicious and unnecessarily injurious to an important industry. He said that the members of the deputation would find him anxious to remove it. IN THE NATIONAL HALLS OF CONGRESS Washington, Feb. 22.—Knox's much discussed and long expected railroad bill was introduced in the senate today, and because of the exceptional interest on the subject was accorded the unusual privilege of a reading for the information of the senators on the day of introduction. At the request of Hale, chairman of the committee on naval affairs, the bill providing for the punishment of hazing at the naval academy at Annapolis was taken up and discussed at length. Dick advocated extreme measures, saying that nothing less would accomplish the desired result. He said that he had investigated the hazing practice, and was prepared to pronounce it "an educator in brutality." He considered it a crime out of harmony with the office held by the midshipmen. The bill was passed. Washington, Feb. 22.—The house today refused to adjourn in celebration of Washington's birthday, and its members participated in a general field day of debate on the army appropriation bill. The speeches took a wide range. Ship subsidy was discussed for an hour by Gilbert, who took the position that ships could be built as cheaply in this country as abroad. He asserted that the United States possessed the finest merchant marine fleet of any nation. Tomorrow the joint resolution directing the Interstate Commerce commission to investigate the railroad, soft and anthracite coal and oil trusts will be considered and most likely adopted. A bill was passed reserving from disposal by the government Battle Mountain, S. D. The mountain is made a part of the Battle Mountain Sanitarium reserve. The mountain takes its name from being the ancient battleground between the Crow and the Sioux Indians. The conference report upon the urgent deficiency bill was agreed to. A joint resolution was agreed to allowing Alaska teachers and employees of the bureau of education to assign their salaries. Wednesday, February 21. Washington, Feb. 21. — Secretary Shaw submitted a report to the house today concerning permanent appropriations made from the general treasury, in compliance with a resolution of Representative Tawney of Minnesota, chairman of the house committee on appropriations, who has been leading the fight against permanent appropriation and has a bill pending which provides for abolishing such appropriations except for sinking fund, international payments and a few other fixed obligations. It is the desire of Mr. Tawney that appropriations shall be made available for two years for the payment of expenditures properly incurred within that time, and at the end of that period all unexpended balances shall be transferred to the surplus fund, thus avoiding making the appropriations permanent. The report of Mr. Shaw shows that there were about 250 permanent appropriations in 1904 and 1905. In 1904 they aggregated $62,000,000 and in 1905 $46,000,000. He states that he favors the Tawney bill in the main, but suggests a few additional amendments. Washington, Feb. 21. — After 15 years of more or less serious consideration of the subjects, the senate today passed the Heyburn pure food bill by the decisive vote of 63 to 4. The vote was taken after a day devoted almost exclusively to desultory debate on the bill. Several efforts were made to amend the bill, and the committee accepted a number of suggestions, but only those thus accepted were incorporated in the bill as passed. Tuesday. February 20. Washington, Feb. 20. — The senate listened three or four hours today to a discussion of the details of the pure food bill. A number of minor amendments were suggested, but under the agreement to vote on all amendments tomorrow none of them could be acted on today. Raynor presented by request a reply from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad company to the charge of discrimination against it by the Red Rock Fuel company, of West Virginia, denying unfair treatment. The senate adjourned a few minutes after 4 o'clock out of respect to the memory of the Will Report Bill. Washington, Feb. 20.—The Philippine tariff bill, which has been held up in the sueate committee ever since it passed the house, is soon to be reported. The Democrats of the committee, who were supposed to be solidly arrayed against the bill, held a conference today and two out of the five declared their intention to vote to report the bill—Carmack of Tennessee and McCreary of Kentucky. Three Republicans, however—Hale of Minnesota, Burrows of Michigan and Brandegee of Connecticut—are opposed to the bill. NO. 44. late Representative Castor, of Pennsylvania. Gallinger presented four petitions from residents of Oklahoma praying for prohibition in the proposed state of Oklahoma. The most voluminous contained the names of 8,000 voters, and Gallinger said that it was 264 feet long. One of the others contained the names of 6,000 women, and another those of 6,000 children. The fourth was signed by indians only. The pure food bill was then taken up. A long discussion of amendments offered by various senators ensued and was participated in by Lodge, Piles, Hemenway, Gallinger, Spooner, Heyburn, McCumber and others, Hemenway and Piles appearing for the first time in debate in the senate. Washington, Feb. 20.—The house of representatives today took an immediate adjournment out of respect to the memory of Representative George A. Castor, of Pennsylvania, after the passage of appropriate resolutions and the appointment of a funeral committee. Representative Castor died yesterday in Philadelphia. Monday. February 19. Washington, Feb. 19. — Three bills were passed under suspension of the rules—requiring a two-thirds vote—in the house today. The first makes gambling unlawful in the territories of the United States, including Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Indian Territory and Alaska. The bill is directed particularly against Arizona and New Mexico, where it was stated gambling was licensed. The second provides additional work for the Census bureau by requiring statistics to be taken on insurance, fisheries, electrical industries, savings banks and crimes. The third appropriates $50,000 for the purchase of 300 acres of coal land on the island of Batan, one of the Philippine archipelago. On the last named bill a debate of two hours was had. The others were debated 40 minutes each. Washington, Feb. 19. — Discussion of the pure food bill occupied practically all of the day in the senate. The speakers were Heyburn, who has charge of the bill; Foraker, who presented a number of amendments desired by liquor interests; Money, in favor of his sustitute; and McCumber. An order was made to devote time tomorrow to considering amendments under the ten-minute rule, and begin voting at 5 o'clock Wednesday. The president transmitted to congress a special message agreeing with the minority report of the consulting engineers on the Panama canal in favor of a lock canal. Pacific Coast Protests. Washington, Feb. 16. — Serious opposition from Pacific coast interests has developed to the Cushman bill providing for new fishing regulations for Alaska. The house committee on territories is now considering the bill and today six Pacific coast senators and a number of representatives appeared before it and asked that the hearing be kept open until parties interested can reach here from the coast to be heard in opposition to it. The principal point of objection is that the bill gives to the department of Commerce and Labor power to make suitable regulations. It is claimed the department would be absolute in this matter, and that any changes in the existing regulations would work hardship, if not ruin, to the salmon fishing industries. Prior Right Given Squatter. Washington, Feb. 19. — Senator Dubois today introduced a bill providing that where settlers have been permitted to go upon and erect improvements on lands within townsites under government irrigation projects prior to their formal opening, they shall have the first right to purchase lots on which such improvements are located at the appraised value. Two Opinions on Alaska Roads Washington, Feb. 20.—Senator Turner, of Washington, today spoke in favor of the Lovering bill to afford aid to the building of a railroad in Alaska. Cadmus Z. Gordon, of Pennsylvania, opposed government aid, and said that a projected line in which he is interested would have sufficient earnings to justify its construction. No Religious Test. Washington, Feb. 20.—In presenting petitions against Senator Reed Smoot, signed by thousands of women of California and Colorado, Perkins and Patterson took occasion today to define their position on the protests against the Utah senator. The former said that religious views should not be considered in passing upon the qualifications of a senator, and that his honesty and attributes that command confidence and respect should be above all else. Patterson thought there were great constitutional questions to be considered.

In many countries and even s0 near as Scotland the pig has served the pur- pose of a beast of draught and has ac- tually been harnessed to the plow In company with cows and horses. In Scotland also early In the last century pigs were sometimes made to serve as chargers and proved most docile mounts, says the London Express. ‘The homing instinct is strongly de- veloped In the pig. Instances not In- frequently occur of pigs finding thelr way back to farms whence they have been conveyed. ‘There Is a record of two pigs homing nine miles, and cross- Jgnlhe Tha to boot, to thelr old farm, wl they had been driven to Reading market and bought by a local gentleman on the previous day. At one point on their homeward journey where two roads met the twain were observ- ed “putting their noses together as If in deep consultation.” About 1815 a London gentleman ere- ated a sensation by driving a four-In- hand of pigs through the streets, and thirty years later an old farmer caused amuseinent to a great crowd in the market place at St. Albans by entering It In a chaise drawn by four trotting hogs. After two or three turns round the market he drove to the Woolpack yard, where his curlous steeds were un- harnessed and led away to be regaled with a trough of beans and wash. ‘There haye also been sporting pigs An old account of a black sow which Richard Tooner, one of the royal keep- ers in the New Forest, broke to find game and to bask and stand says: “Within a fortnight she would find and point partridges or rabbits and her training was much forwarded by the abundance of both. She daily Improv- ed and In a few weeks would retrieve birds that had run as well as the best pointer; nay, her nose was superior to the best pointer.” According to Linneus, “the hog 1s more nice In tlie selection of his vege- table diet than any of our domesticat- ‘ed herbivorous animals.” Thus In one respect the pig may be said to be an epicure. Linnmus states that the anl- mal will eat only seventy-two plants, as against the goat's 449, the sheep's 807, the cow's 276 and the horse's 262, Crows Like a Rooster. Dogs have been trained to do very marvelows things in various ways, but the most remarkable trick ever done by a dog is on its own initiative, with- out any sort of training. He is a Da- viess county dog. the property of Sam Raley of Gatewood, says the Evans- ville (Ky.) Courier. ‘The dog crows like a rooster. It 1s not a case of his accidentally having made a noise thitt sounded something like the crow of a cock. He has done 1t hundreds of times, and does it de- liberately. Before giving vent to a “crow” the dog stretches himself on his back. And the dog knows what he is doing, too, because when the roosters crow at midnight or at the break of day the dog gets In the con- test, taking his turn with the others, Mr. Raley has one rooster for which the dog appears to have a special affin- ity. When that rooster crows the dog is sure to follow suit. When in the na- ture of things the rooster is expected to crow, but for some unknown reason fails to do so, the dog starts the game by crowing loud and long and the rooster answers. The crowing dog is an ordinary fox- hound, but he is worthless for all pur- poses for which he was bred. In fact, Mr. Raley has never found anything except crowing for which be is well adapted, ae WATER TANKS | cctrewagmmncey] Sui" ct Reo ae | Box Shooks a ee p Cedar Shingles Grays Harbor Commercial Co ir feos os ono ttca a Seattle, Wash.

A colored woman writing to the In ‘dianapolis Star that has been discuss ing the race question a good deal late ly, sald: ‘ “There is not a violation of the moral, physical or sanitary laws pe- culiar to the Negro race. Represen- tatives of all the races herd together in poorly ventilated houses, play tm stead of working and give way to self indulgences. If this were not true the penitentiaries, jails and hospitals would contain nothing but black folk. It is no rarity to notice in the daily vital statistics that a white person fell victim to consumption, We see them sitting in thelr doors, walking our streets and riding on the street cars, the very picture of the last stage of consumption, “There are thousands of virtuous, high-minded black women in this country, North and South, and if the editors of the daily papers and the contributors are ignorant of the fact the race that needs them are daily feeling the uplift of their high moral influence in the home, in the church, in every walk of life. There are also thousands of men in our race with no- ble, almost immaculate character, and ‘as they are neither highly educated nor wealthy the public does not know them, but they are helping to build up ‘our race.” Another correspondent points out the inconsistency of people who are microby on the Negro question. They ‘will tell you in one breath ‘that the Negro race is so degenerate that, It ‘will soon die off with consumption and other diseases, and in the next that they are multiplying so fast that there will be 50,000,000 of them in a gen- eration or two and then a great race war is inevitable, especially if they gain knowledge. A great portion of the discussion of the race problem is carried on from too narrow and preju- diced a point of view to be instrue- tive or profitable, and does more harm than good. The Negro race has a right in this country, and a right therein to life, liberty and the pursult of happiness. but it should exercise those rights temperately and intel: ligently, constantly seeking to improve and as far as is consistent with self respecting manhood and womanhood to avoid trouble and strife. Time, pa tence and diligence work wonders. IT Is A PITY. Here we are, a Republican party, with 40,000 majority for Roosevelt— and yet it s more than doubtful it we faithful, working, intelligent, honest Republicans of this district, with some 20,000 majority, can elect a man as representative in congress. Why? Because we are compelled, so far as present developments show, to vote for an old, decayed, inert fat- ty, non-principled stick, Ellis; or a weak, trifling, hornswaggling fellow who never had a real profession or business character, Lachner; or a sleek, huggermuggering tool, a smart, small-calibered lawyer for or of any- thing and everybody with money— Rand. . ‘They are all tarred with the same stick. Not one of them is: scarcely worthy to go to the Oregon legisla ture from a cow county, or serve in a remote precinct of the backwoods as justice of the peace; and yet we are asked to vote for one or the other of these old chronic grafters and nincom- ‘poops—and there is no choice between them as a representative in congress. Every one of them is loaded with mis deeds, political, mental and other wise, that ought to bury him under an avalanche of votes. ‘ You are all kicking about congress, aren't you?—wanting men to do better —to be better Republicans and have higher principles and character—and yet you are invited to vote for Ola Hack Judge Ellis; Flimflammer John Rand; Simple Simon Bill Lachner; Or— it A Democrat! Well, it's a hard choice. It’s a toss-up. PLEDGES NOT WISE. | ‘The idea of some Democratic news. papers that the Republicans of the ‘next legislature should and must vote for Senator Gearin, a Democrat, if he isoais receive a larger vote in the primaries than the highest Republican reeelves, is absurd. They will do nothing of the kind, Nor should Re- publican members pledge themselves in advance to vote for a Republican recelving only a plurality of votes, for while respect should be had to the “will of the people,” the priamries and June election together may nov indicate clearly what that will is in this respect, nor whether there {s any particular will about {t, Six months or more later, when the legislature elects, the wilt of the people might be different if they had a chance to ex: press it. In electing members of the legislature, the people delegate to them the power and devolve upon them the duty of electing a United States senator, They have to do so under the constitution, and it is not only the privilege but the duty of members of the legislature to wait till the proper time comes and then decide who is the best man to elect. Of course, if there is but one Re- publican candidate, as there will be but one Democratic candidate, or tf one Republican candidate receives a clear majority of the Republican vote cast it will be an instruction to the Republican members to vote for that man that they ought not to disregard, but it is neither necessary nor wise to tie themselves up with pledges be- forehand that they may not be able conscientiously to keep thereafter. THANKS TO MR. HILL. ‘The building of the Northern Pacific down the north bank of the Columbia has already done, and will do, not only Oregon, but Western Washing- ton ag well, an incalculable amount of good. It is that, more than anything else, that 1s inducing large invest: ments and making for the develop- ment of this region. As soon as Mr. Hill decided to build this road and intimated that he might invade Ore- gon further, Mr. Harriman, who had left most of Oregon bottled up for many years and treated it as if he owned it and nobody could trespass on it, got busy building to head off other lines. This will be a great thing for Oregon, but its thanks are due to the Hill rather than the Har. riman people, - As an offset to Mr. Hill's invasion of Oregon, Mr. Harriman proposes to Dutta from Portland to Tacoma and Seattle, in which cties his agents have invested many hundreds of thousands of dollars in terminal grounds ‘snd rights of way, which will be of great benefit to those cities, but won't in- jure Portland or Oregon at all—will on the contrary do them good. So this whole region and its three prin- cipal cities and other towns owe a big debt of gratitude to the Northern Pa- cific and Great Northern people, and really nothing to the O, R. & N. and Southern Pacific people. A WINNING CANDIDATE. It begins to look as though Mr. Ralph Hoyt would not only get a large plurality, but a large majority, for the Republican nomination for state treasurer. He is not only the Multnomah county —candidate—and without opposition here—but the same is true in several other coun- tles. Mr. Aitkin will run well In Hunt tngton, no doubt, for he is a good man and deserves some home votes.

Eleven chapters of Royal Arch Masons were represented. Much important business was transacted. The following grand officers were elected for the Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons for the State of Illinois jurisdiction: Champion John G. Jones, 33, most excellent grand high priest; S. W. Prather, deputy grand high priest; T. Webster Brown, grand king; L. A. Harper, grand scribe; A. R. Ford, grand secretary; Joseph Woods, grand treasurer; Robert Jackson, grand Royal Arch captain; Robert Hurley, grand sentinel. The next meeting of the Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons will be held in the city of Chicago in 1907. At a special session of the Most Worshipful St. Johns Grand Lodge of A. F. & A. Masons of the State of Illinois, held in this city on last Wednesday, the following resolutions were adopted: "Whereas, Information has reached us by a letter from Brother C. R. Frank, of Pittsburg, Pa., and the chairman of the committee of foreign correspondence of the Hiram Grand Lodge of the State of Pennsylvania that the officers and members of Mt. Mariah Lodge, A. F. & A. Masons, No. 36, of Pittsburg, Pa., have severed their connection with the clandestine and spurious United Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania that one W. H. Miller, of Philadelphia, is the grand secretary of, and that the said Mt. Mariah Lodge, No. 36, of Pittsburg, had secured a charter from the Hiram Grand Lodge of the State of Pennsylvania which Brother H. T. Broadus is the grand master of, therefore, be it resolved that this St. Johns Grand Lodge of Illinois, now extend fraternal greetings and congratulations to the master and warden and brethren of Mt. Mariah Lodge, No. 36, in Pittsburg, Pa., for the manly, plain and prompt and honest manner in which they have come out and severed their connection with the bogus compact grand lodge in the state of Pennsylvania that one W. H. Miller is the grand secretary of. "Resolved further. That we here extend to them fraternal greeting and welcome Mt. Mariah Lodge, No. 36, of Pittsburg, Pa., in the great Masonic brotherhood as regular and legitimate Masons." GERMANY REBUFFS FRANCE. Proposes Terms With Regard to Morocco Which Ignore Her Claims. Algeciras, Feb. 21.—France's and Germany's projects for the creation of a state bank in Morocco were submitted to the conference today. Germany's proposal created even a worse impression among the French and British delegates than did last night's rejection of the French project relative to police. Both the French and British delegates consider that the German proposition shows an absolute disregard of France's position as the largest and privileged creditor of Morocco, and that France should be given every power-controlling capacity of the administrative body without reference to preferential claims relative to existing loans. Other points with regard to control of the finances of Morocco also aroused objections. Count von Tattenbach, the junior German delegate, has repeatedly expressed the view that the settlement of the bank question was merely delayed by the necessity of first dealing with the police, and this has led the French and British delegates to the belief that Germany was willing to effect a compromise on the financial controversy in return for French moderation regarding police. They consider that France's consent to entertain Germany's demand in the police amply proves her desire for the success of the conference, and therefore the uncompromising nature of the German proposal is very disappointing to them. Many of the delegates of the other powers also take a pessimistic view of the situation; but Henry White, the head of the American delegation, is still inclined to believe that there is a possibility of an eventual agreement.

Science AND Invention Dr. Koch, the famous German scientist, is to take charge of an expedition to investigate the sleeping sickness in German East Africa. The German colonial department has, it is said, given a great sum of money toward the expense of the expedition. ST. PAUL MINN. C. J. EHRMANNTRA Wholesale and Retail Dealer in MEATS 179 Western Avenue. 438 Bros. Both Phones. Prof. Frederick Soddy of Glasgow University holds the theory that gold is gradually disintegrating into other materials. He has visited the gold deposits of western Australia and New Zealand and he expresses his conviction that in all probability gold, like radium, is at once the product of some other parent element and is itself changing to produce "offspring" elements. The professor laments the inadequacy of his resources in the way of gold upon which to experiment, and points to the tons of gold perhaps disintegrating in the vaults of the Bank of England. After several years' experimenting, officers of the Pennsylvania Railway have come to the conclusion that directly behind a locomotive is a bad place for sleepers or any other cars which are used by passengers. For this reason an order has been issued that "in all instances a baggage car, whether the car is needed for baggage purposes or not, must be the first car of the train." This is the first official acknowledgment from a railway company that the middle of a train is the safest place to ride. Recent accidents have convinced many railway men that not only the front end of passenger trains, but also the rear, should be protected by a baggage car, whether used or not. The gigantic animals of the so-called age of reptiles, whose remains are especially abundant in some of the lands bordering the Rocky Mountains, appeal so powerfully to the imagination that an exaggerated notion of their size and weight is frequently entertained. It has more than once been pointed out that, as far as paleontology shows, the earth never contained more bulky creatures than the whales of to-day. A recent comparison between the probable weight of the huge Brontosaurus excelsis, a skeleton of which is in the American Museum of Natural History, New York, and that of a large sulphur bottom whale, strengthens this statement. After prolonged study of the probable contours of the animal when in the flesh, W. K. Gregory concludes that it weighed about 38 tons. This is surely an immense weight, but the weight of a 75-foot whale has been estimated at no less than 63 tons. The length of the brontosaurus' skeleton is 66 feet and 7 inches. In the latest volume of the Smithsonian reports Prof. S. P. Langley gives the first authoritative statement concerning the experiments with his aerodrome in 1903. The experiments were paid for by the War Department, and in consequence of their apparent failure Prof. Langley has been unable to get another appropriation of money to continue them. But he asserts, and produces photographs in support of his statement, that on both occasions when his machine failed to make a successful flight, the real flying capacity of the apparatus was not tested at all. Accidents in the launching prevented the aerodrome from getting free in the air. Prof. Langley believes that further experiments would result in perfecting the launching apparatus, and that then the aerodrome would prove its capacity to fly. "It is at the moment of success, and when the engineering problems have been solved that a lack of means has prevented a continuance of the work." DEATH MAKES HER RICH. Mrs Ethel Beatty, of the British navy, daughter and only surviving child of the late Marshall Field, becomes, by her father's death, one of the richest women in the world. She was married first to Arthur Tree, son of Lambert, Tree, of Chicago. After some years' residence in England they separated. Mrs. Tree later was married to Capt. Beatty. Women as Chauffeurs. In Washington they have a school for chauffeurs in which women are enrolled, and the general opinion is that they make as good if not better chauffeurs than men. They are not learning as professionals, however, but as owners and would-be runners of their own machines. No, Cordella, it isn't necessary to act foolish in order to live the simple life. It's a good thing for some of us that we are not recognized as "good things." ST. PAUL MINN. C. J. EHRMANNTRAUT MEATS 179 Western Avenue. 438 Broadway. Both Phones. ST. PAUL, MINN. CASCADE LAUNDRY O.

RHEUMATISM CAN NOT BE RUBBED AWAY When the joints are sore and swollen, and the muscles throbbing with the pain of Rheumatism, relief must be had at once, and it is natural to rub the affected parts with liniments, oils, etc. This treatment does good in a way, by temporarily relieving the pain and reducing the inflammation, but has no effect on the disease itself, because Rheumatism is more than skin deep; it is in the blood and cannot be rubbed away. Rheumatism is brought on by indigestion, weak kidneys, poor bowel action, stomach troubles and a general sluggish condition of the system. The refuse and waste matters, which for another attack.

A woman whose throat had troubled her for a long time, says a writer in the Philadelphia Public Ledger, grew impatient at the slow progress she was making, and made complaint to her doctor, who said: "Madam, I can never cure you of this throat trouble unless you stop talking, and give your throat a complete rest." "But, doctor," objected his patient, "I'm very careful what I say. I never use harsh language or anything of that kind." One Way Out. "What??" exclaims the vexed wife. "You forgot to get the tickets for the matinee, after we have asked our friends to go with us? O, you dummy! Now, what excuse can we make to them? It is too late to get seats." "Well," stammers the husband, "couldn't we tell them we forgot they were going?"

Then instead of nourishing the different nerves, muscles, joints and tissues it fills them with poison to produce the aches, pains and other disagreeable symptoms of the disease. Rheumatism is usually worse in Winter for the reason that cold and dampness are exciting causes. The nerves become excited and sting with pain, the muscles are sore and drawn, the joints swollen and stiff and the sufferer lives in intense agony; and if the disease is not checked it often leaves its victims helpless cripples for life. Rheumatism cannot be rubbed away but it can be driven from the blood by S. S. S.

Every second some one, somewhere, is Buying a little Ten-Cent Box of Cascares 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6—60 times to the Minute, 60 Minutes to the Hour, 3600 Boxes an Hour, 36,000 Boxes a Day of Ten Hours, 1,080,000 Boxes a Month, and then some. Think of It—220,000 People take a Cascaret tablet each day. Millions use Cascarets when necessary. The Judgment of Millions of Bright Americans is Infallible.

The historical facts concerning marriages an institution are probably only vaguely known to the majority of people, most of whom would doubtless be surprised to learn that the institution, as we know it to-day, is less than 500 years old. Histories of the marriage ceremony show that it was not solemnized in church as a religious rite until the time of Pope Innocent III., A. D. 1198, and was not considered a sacrament until 1443. Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one external remedy. External remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed, the air is blocked and, when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be conditioned, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, an inflamed condition of thermous surfaces.

THEWINNINGSTROKE If more than ordinary skill in playing brings the honors of the game to the winning player, so exceptional merit in a remedy ensures the commendation of the well informed, and as a reasonable amount of outdoor life and recreation is conducive to the health and strength, so does a perfect laxative tend to one's improvement in cases of constipation, biliousness, headaches, etc. It is all-important, however, in selecting a laxative, to choose one of known quality and excellence, like the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., a laxative which sweetens and cleanses the system effectually, when a laxative is needed, without any unpleasant after effects, as it acts naturally and gently on the internal organs, simply assisting nature when nature needs assistance, without gripping, irritating, or debilitating the internal organs in any way, as it contains nothing of an objectionable or injurious nature. As the plants which are combined with the figs in the manufacture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth considering in making purchases. It is because of the fact that SYRUP OF FIGS is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed people, who would not use any remedy of uncertain quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a bottle of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when a laxative remedy is required. Please to remember that the genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size only, by all reputable druggists and that full name of the company—California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on the front of every package.
