State Ledger

INTER-STATE Journal Kans.. and Missouri. Rv F L JLTZ. EDITORIAL Congressmar. Curtis at home again... Bound to carry First District by old time majority—Harvey not "in it,"... You cant tool every one—see! Where are your summer clothes(?) Every dog has his day and behold how they velp. Its time to go fishing, t he sucker season is off. We appeal to all tair minded peo ple to come up with the right thing. School is out now you can lay aside your school books for a spell. Alas its all over now; the editor of this paper is going to show a few tin hornes what manhood means we do not care a fig for those people who pose as great men and fizzle out to nothing when light is turned on. Unless the editor of this paper is treated right we will have some of the wise men profit by their experience. Little late but cant help it, you are reading a gigantic newspaper better and bigger than ever. We have never lost a fight and you might aver that a hint to the wise is sufficient. If President Roo-evelt was a Negro hater some would still hate him but as he is not they still "cuss" the Dutch and the "niggers," The Ledger has no over flowing and gushing feelings for the Japs, are the black races friendly to Mr. Colored man. Do not let your chickens run at large and make other people "cuss." Republicans are congratulating themselves on the fact that they will elect their state and county to take this fall. The State Ledger shall not stand for friends, nor foes, nor judge nor jury unless we find the public to be right. Justice and fair play is what we ask in all lines especially among our young women who have graduated from the Topeka High School. The Board of Education should understand that they should be preferred: If the High School amounts to anything at all that article should not go unnoticed by our powers who has the dispensation of shool patronage.

I trust you will not censure me, Or think that I am bold, The hardships of a cripple's life Can scarcely be told. For this is a world of sorrow Through which we all must go Up to immortal glory— or down to endless woe. Six and six years a cripple - How long it has been And poverty compels me To do the best I can I am glad to toil and struggle As would any honorable man, To provide to our daily wants And do the best I can. For, oh how sad and gloomy A cripple's life appears, Where there is not a single cent His glorious life to cheer. Now, as I am compelled to travel to sell this mounthful song, Please, sir, will you buy one To help me along? How many thanks I ought to give, How many thanks I owe, For all the kindness shown me Wherever I may go, And in God's holy book We read these glorious words: "He that giveth to the poor Lendeth to the Lord."

A New York woman hit a street-car conductor, which shows that downtrodden woman will finally turn. Russia's lack of foresight in overlooking those double back action Missouri catapults is costing her dear. Susan B. Anthony's sister has paid her taxes under protest, but that is more than some men can be got to do. The man who makes hay while the ann shines is in a position to lend money to the fellow who writes poetry about it. Since Gov. Odell refuses to let the corporations have Niagara falls, they will have to water their stocks with something else. Eminent defenders and opponents of the higher criticism are having a hot fight in the newspapers. Why do the heathen rage? It is said that the horse has greater pulling strength, in proportion to his weight, than any other animal. How about the octopus? A 16-year-old lady has secured a divorce in Chicago. With such an early start it is to be hoped that she may succeed in living it down. The editor of the London Medical Press says that rats and mice are good eating. We understand now the reason for the unrest in China. General Ma is said to have command of the 5,000 Chinese regulars now on the march. There's no doubt about it. Mas are always in command. Uncle Russell Sage thinks no man ought to pay more than fifty cents for a straw hat. Well, a $50 Panama on a fifty cent head does look a little misplaced. The principal part of King Edward's job appears to be to visit around among his relatives and try to keep them from declaring war on one another. Sermons are now being delivered by phonograph down in New York. But a great many prominent citizens will continue to get theirs by wireless telegraphy. In view of the fact that the "Pilgrim's Progress" is about to be dramatized, the critics are sharpening up their pencils and a few of them are reading the book. The thoughtful Cincinnati Enquirer says "a game of baseball is not in the nature of things a religious festival." Every office boy knows it is often in the nature of a funeral. Perhaps the English educator who talked about the "feminized" American youth saw some of those queer things in baggy trousers, dinky coats and caps like clam shells. The members of the W. C. T. U. won't agree that the Boston man who bought six quarts of whisky for 45 cents at an express company's unclaimed package sale was lucky. We do not doubt the assertion of Dr. Rondhalter that in Philadelphia you think of your grandfather. The atmosphere of the place conduces to thought of those who are at rest. now talks of disbanding its army. This would seem to be an easy matter. All that is necessary is to charter an omnibus and distribute the soldiers around at their several homes. A junkman down in Bridgeport, Conn., cut a telephone cable that contained 100 wires, and when the telephone people found it out they said something much more expressive than "Hullo!". Bibb county, Ga., has a record of a hundred divorce cases at one term of court. The climate of the Dakotas would seem to have been instrumental in shifting the divorce center to the southeast. Do not scoff at the Chicago woman who declares that she used to weigh 224 pounds, but has taken off seventy pounds by mental action. Many a woman has taken ten years off her age in the same way. Mr. Otto Nordenskjold, who once tried to find the South pole, has failed to land the chair of geography in Stockholm university. The candidate's proved ignorance of exactly where the pole is doubtless told against him. A man who signs himself "Dr. M. A. Lee, B. S. A. B. M. D." advertises in a North Dakota paper that he desires to become a member of the state legislature. He must think North Dakota is getting right up into the Massachusetts class. "A woman should be first a homemaker," says Mrs. "Bob" Burdette, who has just declined to be a candidate for the president of the national federation of women's clubs. "That is the first article of my club creed," she adds. Lucky "Bob!" The young man who made love to a New York girl under the pretense of being a brother-in-law to a duke has been sentenced to jail. This is proper. The girls must be protected against impostors who win their affections by promising to make them relatives by marriage to the nobility. President Eliot of Harvard declares that more money will not bring more joy. It is pleasant to find a prominent educator who is willing to get back to good old-fashioned maxims instead of trying to say something sensational. KILLS HIMSELF CHIEF MAGISTRATE OF BALTIMORE KILLS HIMSELF. WAS MARRIED BUT TWO WEEKS AGO Stood Before Mirror and Put Bullet in His Brain—No Cause Can Be Assigned Other Than Temporary Insanity From Overwork—Was the Youngest Mayor Baltimore Had. BALTIMORE, MD.—(Special.) Mayor Robert M. McLane, of this city, shot and killed himself Monday afternoon in his bedroom at his residence, No. 29 West Preston street. His bride of less than two weeks was at the time of the tragedy, asleep in an adjoining room and was awakened by the discharge of the revolver, which Mr. McLane evidently fired while standing before the mirror of the dressing case. The bullet entered the right temple and, crashing through the head, escaped in the rear of the left ear. Mrs. McLane and other members of the household rushed to the mayor's assistance, but he did not regain consciousness after he fell to the floor, and expired within an hour. No cause for the act can be assigned by the members of Mr. McLane's family. Since the fire of last February he has been kept assiduously at work administering the affairs of the city, besides endeavoring to direct the rehabilitation and rebuilding of the burned district. This, together with criticisms by his political opponents are thought by many to have caused a temporary aberration of mind. Coroner Benjamin F. Hayden signed a certificate giving suicide as the cause of death and the remains were turned over to an undertaking firm to be prepared for burial. Mayor McLane was elected as a Democrat to the office of chief ministrate of the municipality in May of last year for a term of four years. Under the city charter he will be succeeded by E. Clay Timanus, Republican, president of the second branch of the city council, to serve out the unexpired term. The second branch of the council, which is Republican, will elect a president, not necessarily a member of the present body, to preside over its deliberations. Mayor McLane was 36 years old, the youngest chief executive Baltimore ever had. He was the son of James L. McLane, president of the First National bank and nephew of Robert M. McLane, former governor of Maryland and United States Minister to France during President Cleveland's first administration. Previous to his election as mayor he had for four years filled the office of state's attorney, in which he had distinguished himself by a zealous and intelligent discharge of his duties. During his brief administration of the mayoralty office he had brought upon himself the antagonism of the regular Democratic organization by the appointment of independent members of the party. Recently there has been marked opposition to him among Democratic members of the city council in matters relating to the rebuilding of Baltimore and this is ascribed by many as a contributory cause of suicide. Mayor McLane was married two weeks ago to Mrs. Mary VanBibber, a well known and popular society leader of Baltimore, and the newly made bride is prostrated by the terrible tragedy. The dead mayor was very popular among the people generally, irrespective of party, and the whole community has been profoundly affected. Buggy Struck by Car. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH.—(Special.) The son of Mrs. C. W. Worthen was killed in a grade crossing accident here Monday. Mrs. Worthen and her three children were driving in a buggy from the cemetery, where they had been decorating graves. In attempting to cross the street car tracks the buggy was struck by a trolley car. Alonzo, the 5-year-old son, was dragged under the car, one arm was cut off and his skull was fractured. The mother and the other two children were bruised, but not seriously hurt. The June Century. The June number of Century is one of the best and strongest that has come out for many issues. It is what may be termed a "Western publication," so far as this number is concerned, as all the matter contained in it was prepared by Western writers. And this fact calls to mind that Western writers are today sought after more than ever before. One copy of June Century means joy for many days. Sleep more the night before, and quit yawning at lectures. Didn't Know Wife Was Buried. LAWTON, O. T.—(Special.) Colonel J. C. Tousley has just returned from an extended sojourn in Old Mexico, where he is secretary of an Oklahoma colony. Colonel Tousley was came home by the severe illness of his wife, but he was located so far in the interior of San Luis Potosí that the news of Mrs. Tousley's illness did not reach him until she had died. When he arrived here he was shocked to learn that his wife had been buried. To Bring His No. 7. PARIS.—(Special). Santos-Dumont, the aeronaut, will sail for New York on the North German Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II, leaving Cherbourg June 11. He will take with him his No. 7 dirigible airship to compete at St. Louis. The airship has been separated into a number of parts for shipment. The bad weather of the last few days prevented Santos-Dumont from taking long flights, but several short trips were successfully made. TAKING OF NAN SHAN HILL In Earlier Rushes Every Jap in Line Was Shot Down. TOKIO.—(Special.) The Japanese assault on Nan Shan hill was one of the fiercest and bloodiest affairs in modern warfare. In the earlier rushes of the engagement every man participating was shot down before he reached the first line of Russian trenches. Nan Shan was splendidly defended. Nearly fifty guns of various sizes were mounted on the various emplacements, and there were also two batteries of quick-firing field pieces. The artillery was sheltered behind loophole trenches on the terraces of the hill. The infantry manning the field pieces ran with them around the hill, thus using these guns for the protection of the most important points. The Japanese began the fight by bringing all their field guns into action and concentrating their fire on the emplacements on the hill. After the Russian batteries had been silenced, the Japanese artillery opened on the enemy's trenches, the Japanese infantry advancing meanwhile to within rifle range. The Japanese gradually worked to within 400 meters of the Russian lines, where they encountered wire and other entanglements. They succeeded in getting to within 200 meters of the Russian trenches and rushed for the line. Several successive charges were made, but every officer and man in the attacking parties was shot down twenty or thirty meters from the line. The charges were then stopped and the Japanese artillery renewed its preparatory fire on the enemy's position. Toward evening a detachment of Japanese carried a section of the Russian trenches, breaking through the enemy's line. Hundreds of the comrades of these men, inspired by their success, sprang forward and then the entire Japanese line swept up the hill, driving the Russians from their positions. FOUR KILLED BY DYNAMITE. Workmen Were Careless While They Were Taming the Holes Were Tamping the Holes. KNOXVILLE, TENN. — (Special.) James Birchrel and son John, John Hunley, Henry McAllister, all residents of Campbell county, Tenn., were killed Monday in a dynamite explosion which occurred near Warwick, on the Knoxville, LaFollette and Jeilcoe branch of the Louisville & Nashville railroad. George Ridnour's eyes were bled out and his body lacerated by stones. The accident was due to carelessness of men at work in a rock cut. They had been ordered to lay some blasts and it was while they were tapping the holes that the explosion occurred. For Inter-Married Whites MUSKOGEE, I. T.—(Special). W. T. Hutchings of this city is preparing to file proceedings to collect for the inter-married whites of the Cherokee nation their pro rata of the various funds distributed to the Indian citizens in the past, and also to establish their rights to a share of all future disbursements of tribal moneys. There are about 1,500 inter-married white citizens in the Cherokee country and, should the court decide in their favor, it would mean the collection of about $500,000, or slightly more than $300 for each adopted white, besides a handsome income for the future. The Cherokees have always disputed the right of their adopted whites to share in the tribal funds, although they have conceded that they might receive alotments of land. Pace Was Killing PARIS.—(Special.) Fatal results followed the army walking match Monday from the theater de la Conviction to St. Germain and back, a distance of about twenty-eight miles, in which 2,000 soldiers from many regiments took part. Reports received by the ministry of war show that forty-two men are missing, and a number of them are believed to have succumbed to hardships. Besides those missing, thirty-four men were taken to hospitals along the course in various stages of prostration. Six were in a serious condition. One man is dead and another is in a dangerous condition. Some reports place the number of dead at four. Ants to Eight Roll Weevil. WASHINGTON—(Special.) The department of agriculture Friday announced that an ant has been found in Guatemala that is an effective enemy of the boll weevil. It will be immediately introduced into t.e. cotton stares. The greatest significance is attached to the discovery, which was made by O. F. Cooke, the botanist in charge of tropical agricultural investigations of the bureau of plant industry. Killed by Maddened Bull CLETA, O. O. T.-(Special.) John Stattle, age 85, was killed by a maddened bull. Mr. Stattle tried to defend himself with a steel cane, which he carried. His chest was crushed and both legs were broken. Body in Oil Tank Car. WHITING, IND—(Special.) The crushed body of L. J. Hall of Wolf's Lake, Ind., was found in an oil tank car Friday. The police believe that Hall was murdered. The body was found when the tank was pumped out to be cleaned. The body was so swollen that a hole had to be cut in the tank to permit the removal of the corpse. The body had probably been in the tank for a month and shipped to Pennsylvania and back. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS. Governor Dockery has pardoned three negroes, John Woods, Anna Meredith and Lucy Mitchell, all sent up from St. Louis. All have incurable diseases. There has been issued an imperial decree ordering the establishment of a Red Cross Society in China and that I join the international convention. The sum of 100,000 taels from the imperial treasury has been devoted to the society. Of fortunity. Master of human destiny and I! Fame, love and fortune in my fortitude will; Cries and fields I walk.

But those who doubt or estate Condemned to failure; penury and true Seek me in vain and undeclared, implore Answer not, and I return no more. Gro. J. Rogers. The authorship of "Opportunity," on which rests the literary fame of the late Senator Ingalls of Kansas, is claimed in a June magazine article by Dr. Nicoli Gigliotti of Erie, Pa., who says he wrote the sonnet first and published it in Italian in 1887. He prints a "deadly parallel" to prove his claim. He called it "Il Fato." THE FASTEST WARSHIP AFLOAT. Proud Honor Held by the Kentucky of the U. S. Navy. In stripping the Kearsarge of her laurels gained in her record-breaking run from Southampton to New York the battleship Kentucky, one of the great fighting ships of the navy, marked up the records for the navies of the world and demonstrated once more the supremacy of American naval architecture.

Stoessel is the commander of the beleaguered Port Arthur garrison and has been in supreme control since Viecyor Alexieff departed for Mukden some weeks ago. Gen. Stoessel distinguished himself in the Turkish war, having fought at Plevna and In the fighting efficiency of the modern battleship speed and endurance are important factors. The floating fortress must not only have the guns and the men behind the guns, but she must be able to cover long distances at a high rate of speed without mishap. Judged by these standards the Kentucky must be crowned queen of the American navy. Under the command of Captain Robert M. Berry and with Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans and staff on board, the Kentucky made the run from Madeira, 3,885 knots, at an average speed of 13.82 knots an hour. The record of the trip includes 12,916 knots from Hongkong in thirty-nine steaming days, being an average of 315 knots a day, including the slow passage of the Suez canal, a record reached by no other warship of the United States. During her absence of three years and seven months on the other side of the world her total sailing was 68,157 knots. Several years ago the Kearsarge stuck her nose in the air and made a dash from Southampton to New York at an average of 13.50 knots under natural draught. Upon this achievement she has received the plaudits of the whole country. It was pointed out that she had steamed 5,000 miles before her record run without having made repairs. But the Kentucky, before the run completed on Saturday, had steamed 9,000 miles to Honolulu and back, making a total distance of 18,000 miles, without repairs to engines.

Comes Back to Politics At the age of 82 years Henry G. Davis of West Virginia has returned to active politics and will be one of the delegates to the democratic national convention. It is twenty years since this veteran of democracy retired from the United States senate, after serving there for twelve years. He began his political career the year following the civil war by being elected to the West Virginia assembly, and began attending national democratic conventions in 1868. His Life's Work Well Done Dr. William S. Evans, who died in Clinton county, Missouri, the other day, was a preacher for twenty-three years, then a physician for twenty-seven years and again a minister for twenty-nine years. Dr. Evans was almost 96 years old. He began to preach the first time when he was 17 years old and did not commence his medical studies until he was 40. He gave up medicine in 1875 and had been since then merely a local preacher Gen. Stoessel One of the Foremost of Russian Soldiers. Gen. Stoessel is the commander of the beleaguered Port Arthur garrison and has been in supreme control since Viceroy Alexief departed for Mukden some weeks ago. Gen. Stoessel distinguished himself in the Turkish war, having fought at Plevna and T. W. W. at Shipke Pass, and he also served in the Turkestan campaigns. He is held in high esteem by the officials at St. Petersburg, and, it is said, was first sent east at the special request of Alexieff. Gen. Stoessel is about 55 years of age, is of sanguine disposition and is possessed of a rugged constitution. HAS NO USE FOR BACHELORS. Joe Jefferson Recounts With Pleasure How He, Hit One Of Them Once Joseph Jefferson's pet abomination is a bachelor. The venerable actor believes in early marriages and recently advised a group of Yale juniors to marry as soon as ever they could afford it. "Bachelors—why, I have the utmost contempt for the whole breed of them," he said. "The older they grow the more conceived they grow. I took one down a peg though, the other day. He was talking about this woman he had known, and that woman he had known, and these women, it seemed, had married. 'Why you,' I said, 'are in danger of getting left. Why, don't you, too, get married before it is too late?' 'Oh, said the bachelor, with a chuckle, there are still plenty of good fish in the sea.' 'But the bait,' said I, 'isn't there danger of the bait becoming stale?" Centers of European Popul Centers of European Population. London and Manchester are still disputing as to which is the greater European center of population. Most people would suppose that London owns the title beyond adventure. Even if one draws a circle with a radius of thirty miles about Charing Cross station one gets a population of more than 6,000,000, as against 5,500,000 within a similar distance from the Manchester exchange. But protracting a circle with a forty-mile radius one gets a greater Manchester that shows a population of more than 8,000,000 as against a greater London of only about 7,000,000. All Knew What She Meant In a murder trial at Lancaster, Mo., State's Attorney Smoot asked a female witness some question about her domestic affairs. The witness resented the asking of such a question, saying: "I reckon a woman has a right to boss her own house." Mr. Smoot asked what she meant by that, whereupon Judge Shelton interposed: "The remark made by the witness is perfectly clear, and I am confident the jury understands what she means. They are all married men." The Stingless Bee. Apiculturists have been experimenting to determine whether a comparatively rare stingless bee that is a native to North and South America could be bred to replace the common honey bee. The former, according to the investigators, was found to use no wax in the construction of the nests, and the honey stored by them is greatly inferior to that of the common honey bee. The domestication of this species, apparently, does not look very promising. SENATOR GONE CAREER OF FAMOUS PENNSYL VANIA SENATOR ENDED. MATHEW S. QUAY DEAD AT BEAVER, PA. Had Been Practically an Invalid for Years—President Roosevelt Sends a Telegram of Sympathy to Mrs. Quay—Something of the Political Career of the Dead Statesman. BEAVER, PA.—(Special.) Colenel Matthew Stanley Quay, senior senator from Pennsylvania, slept peacefully unto death at 2:48 Saturday afternoon, after an illness which had been more or less persistent for the last year, which took a turn for the worse ten days ago, and which the doctors diagnosed as chronic gas tritis. The funeral will be at 2 o'clock on the afternoon of Tuesday, May 31, and the remains will be interred in the historical family burial plot in Beaver cemetery. Senator Quay's illness began about a year ago. It was a recurrence of the trouble that beset him during the latter part of 1900 and the early days of January, 1901, when he was undergoing the strain of a desperate fight for re-election to the senate. For a time he seemed improved and gave much of his time to outdoor exercise. Never a strong man physically, Senator Quay prided himself on his endurance and believed firmly that outdoor life would restore him to health and give him years' longer lease of life. Colonel Quay, in health, was a great eater, and his trouties of later years dated from overdraughts on his vital system, due to heavy eating, smoking and the great nervous strains which he underwent. He celebrated his 70th birthday at Beaver last fall and at the same time seemed in excellent health. The loss of weight, however, weighted constantly on his mind. Day in and day out he went to a scale to see what his avidupuplo was. He dropped weight so persistently that the alarm which pervaded his own mind spread to friends and family. Senator Quay constantly expected death, and told his friends so. The last call he made at the White House he told President Roosevelt that he expected never to recover and would hardly see him again. Ten days ago he began the arrangement of his personal affairs, looking toward the finality. The last papers were not signed until Friday morning, but the arrangements were all made. In the meantime no relief came and the sapping of the great man's vitality continued. The only food he could take was leben, a milk preparation, suc has is used for babies, and he frequently revolted against this. Sunday last his condition became so alarming that the family decided to remove him to Beaver. This was the last move. For a day or two there was improvement, and hope again pervaded the stricken family; but it was merely temporary. Quay showed all the stoicism of an Indian in his last illness. He held out no hope of recovery and refused to believe it was possible. Coolly and firmly he took leave of his nearest things. Thursday last he asked to be taken to his famous library, remarking to his attendants: "I want to see my books once more before I die." Through it all his mental energies never flagged. He joked grimly at times and was cheerful in his comments. The relapse which alarmed the family on Sunday last at Morganza recurred again on Thursday night, and the alarm was so serious that the Pittsburg specialists were called in at midnight. On Friday night the absent members of the family were summoned and every preparation for the end made. His condition continued worse and the end gradua.y came, stupor, fever, high pulse and weakened respiration marking the approach of death. Dr. Litchfield said the reason why no reports of Mr. Quay's true condition were given out before was because all along the senator insisted on seeing all newspapers to learn what was said about his condition. If an attempt was made to hold back a paper it annoyed him. A day or two ago Senator Quay told Dr. Litchfield that he was not worrying about politics. "Everything is quiet," Senator Quay told me, 'and there is nothing for me to do," said Dr. Litchfield. PHILADELPHIA.—(Special.) News of the death of Senator Quay spread rapiety throughout the city, and expressions of regret were heard on all sides. Found Home and Fortune GLENS FALLS, N. Y.—(Special.) Blind, almost deaf, and with mind impaired, Lewis Mosher, after years of wandering and years spent in hospitals, has been restored to relatives here, where a fortune of $15,000 awaits him. Mosher went West twenty years ago. Three years later all trace of him was lost. A short time ago his relatives learned that he was in the state hospital at Medical Lake, Wash., and brought him home. Mosher lost his sight and hearing in a mine explosion. Three Guthrie Boys Arrested. GUTHRIE, O. T.—(Special.)

McBride of this place, as reported by Dr. Jesse L. Limes, the attending physician. "The little boy had a severe case of malignant scarietina which left him semi-paralyzed in the right leg and right arm. He also lost the hearing in the right ear. "I treated him and he gained slowly and had begun to try to use his limbs some when a traveling doctor came along and persuaded the child's parents that he could cure their boy in a short time. They used his medicines, but the boy grew worse and began having spells very like epilepsy. "Mr. McBride came to me again and I proposed giving him a course of Dodd's Kidney Pills, which was commenced at once. The improvement was instant and in a week's time the epileptic seizures ceased altogether." In the books and in letters written by proper people, no one ever goes to bed: they "retire."

CONSUMPTION Origin of Names In England the daw is hardly ever mentioned but as Jack; yet daw and not jackdaw is the proper name of the species. It is suggested that the ples owes the "mag" to some corruption of Margaret or Meg. To mag is to chatter, but whether the verb was derived from the name or the name from the verb is a question. It is more probable that the jincrow of America (the old name for a negro boy) was brought across from England in the day when a crow was Jim as a swallow was Dick. Armor Piercing Shells. The fuse in an armor-piercing shell is so constructed that when the projectile strikes a ship's armor-plate, the delay in action is just enough to let it pass through the plate. Should the shell strike a thin plate like the shell of a torpedo-boat, or strike a glancing blow it will always burst within ten feet. Farmers Take Chances The liking for a gamble, though the odds are all against them, seems inveterate in English farmers. They prefer, when selling fat cattle, to pit their experience against that of the butcher, and to sell at sight instead of by weight. At present the total of all the cattle markets of England and Scotland in which the "weigh bridge" is scheduled as in use is only twenty-one, of which six are in Scotland and fifteen in England.

Under the caption, "The Union Pacific Railroad and Louisiana Territory," the new World's Fair folder issued by the advertising department of the Union Pacific, which has attracted such general attention, recites these interesting facts: "While the construction of the Union Pacific Railroad, its trials and triumphs, are a part of the history of the United States, the important part played by this railroad in the development of the Louisiana Purchase can hardly be estimated. In the building up of this vast domain it has been one of the chief factors. One hundred years ago the population of the region was estimated at 20,000. Up to the inception of the Union Pacific (in 1860) it had increased to 3,233,529. In 1900 it numbered over 12,000,000 of inhabitants. In this wonderful growth, with its situational phases of commercial, material and intellectual prosperity, the Union Pacific—as a glance at the map will show—has had a conspicuous share. It has opened vast regions of fertile country to settlers, and brought great areas of an unknown and unproductive wilderness into close communion with metropolitan centers and marshlands, low-lying swamps and llets, through its efforts, have sprung in an every direction. It may be of interest to know that the total number of manufacturing plants, and the value of their outputs, combined with that of the national products as reported in the census of 1900, give an aggregate production for the Louisiana region of $3,500,000,000 annually, or 223 times the original purchase price. The same census figures also show the total population to be 13,343,255, of which 3,303,096 inhabitants are living in the states and territories reached by the Union Pacific. On the 1900 census figures, it is estimated that the true wealth of the Louisiana purchase can be stated at about $13,051,168,359, of which $3,660,621,387 is represented in the states reached by this great railroad."

On historic Cemetery hill, overlooking ground hallowed by the blood of half a hundred thousand brave men and in the presence of a concourse of thousands who had assembled to pay tribute to the memory of the nation's dead, President Roosevelt Decoration Day delivered a notable addess. On nearly the same spot, on November 19, 1863, President Lincoln delivered the immortal address enunciating principles which have rung around the world for more than a third of a century. President Roosevelt was escorted to the cemetery of the battlefield by a body of several hundred veterans of the Civil war. The president and his special escort were preceded by several organizations, including a squadron of United States cavalry, the Third United States artillery and the Marine band of Washington, which had been ordered here for the occasion. Mrs. Roosevelt and other members of the president's party followed in carriages. The rear of the procession consisted of civic organizations and citizens in carriages. Governor Pennypacker presided at the ceremonies, which were held in the roostrum in the cemetery. After the Memorial day services of the G. A. R. had been concluded and the pupils of the public schools had strewn flowers over the graves of the thousands of dead, during which ceremony the Marine band played a solemn dirge, Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of the United States senate, pronounced the invocation. The president was then introduced by Governor Pennypacker. As President Roosevelt rose to speak a downpour of rain began and continued throughout the time he addressed the great assemblage. He was accorded an enthusiastic reception, notwithstanding the rain, and the crowd of 10,000 people in the cemetery remain to hear the address despite the thorough drenching it received. Referring in the beginning of his speech to the allusion of Governor Pennypacker to the death of Senator Quay, the president said: "Governor Pennypacker alluded to the fact that Pennsylvania mourns its senior senator. The regiment which Senator Quay was instrumental in raised took part in this battle of Gettysburg—the battle in which Governor Pennypacker shared. Senator Quay was not with it. He had gone with another regiment, and it is appropriate at that time to recall the fact that when the term of service of that regiment expired, just before Fredericksburg, Senator Quay declined to accept the discharge and continued as a volunteer with the army that fought at Fredericksburg and won the medal of honor on that bloody day." Crazy Man Wields a Hatchet SCRANTON, PA.—(Special). Stephen Haggerty, who has shown signs of insanity, Friday made a murderous attack on four members of his family, at their home in Hawley, Pa. Two of his victims are not expected to live. Haggerty attacked his brother, Anthony, who lay asleep downstairs. He struck him with a hatchet repeatedly. Leaving Anthony for dead, Stephen rushed upstairs and chopped his sisters, Winifred and Bridget, crushing Bridget's skull and breaking Winfred's collar bone. Haggerty then attacked his brothers, Eugene and Patrick. A blow fractured Eugene's skull. By this time the father had been aroused and he and Patrick overpowered Stephen. Eugene and Bridget will not recover. Mrs. Hearst Curtails Gifts SAN FRANCISCO.—(Special.) Mrs. Phoebe Hearst has given notice of the withdrawal of her support from a number of the charitable, religious and educational organizations at the University of California, to which she has contributed about $20,000 a year.

Edouard Meyer finds that the vegetable organism, as well as the animal, gives off N-rays in varying quantities, as may be made evident by the feebly fluorescent screen. The most marked indications are given by the green parts, such as stems, and especially leaves, but the emanations are feebly detectable from the flower. On treating tissues in active growth with the vapor of chloroform, so as to slacken their vital functions, the N-ray indications were correspondingly lessened. Soft Zinc.

This alloy is added to molten zinc until volatization ceases. The zinc is heated to a temperature of from 900 degrees to 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit. It is stated that the soft zinc so produced is of 90 per cent purity. Honesty in Iceland.

Pulling Strength. The pulling strength of men and animals was recently shown in an exhibition of a circus at Madison Square Garden, New York. For each pound of its own weight an elephant can pull .72 of a pound; a camel, .76, and a horse 1.17 of a pound. A man can pull .82 of his own weight. Superior quality and extra quantity must win.

Byington & Wilson, 728 17th St., Washington, D.C. Est. 1968. Catarrh of the Stomach is Generally Called Dyspepsia—Something to Produce Artificial Digestion is Generally Taken. Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host of Other Digestive Remedies Has Been Invented. These Remedies Do Not Reach the Seat of the Difficulty, Which is Really Catarrh. X. U. S. Senator M. C. Butler from South Carolina, was Senator from that State for two terms. In a recent letter to The Peruana Medicine Co., from Washington, D. C., says: "I can recommend Peruana for dyspepsia and stomach trouble. I have been using your medicine for a short period and I feel very much relieved, it is indeed a wonderful medicine besides a good tonic." -M. C. Butler. The only rational way to cure dyspepsia is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial digestion. It cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to perform digestion in a natural way. This is vastly better and safer than resorting to artificial methods or narcotics. It causes of dyspepsia than all other remedies combined, simply because it cures catarrh wherever located. If catarrh is located in the head, Peruna cures it. If catarrh has fastened itself in the throat or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in this location as in any other. It does not simply a remedy for dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy. Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is generally dependent upon catarrh.
