Effect of Water on Teeth

Herr Rese has collected statistics IN b.
yaris and Herr Foerberg in Sweden which
tend to prove that the water we drink has
an important influence on the teeth. Carries,
or decay in teeth, is less common where
the water is hard" owing to the presence
of chalk and magnesium salts. The hard
ar the water the better the teeth. Prob
ably the presence Of lime In the water
beneflts the bones In general.

SENATOR QUAY'S
 CASE WITH JURY
Verdict of AcquittaI Is Generally
 Expected.

Philadelphia, April 20-The case of ex- United States Senator Quay was placed in the hands of the jury promptly at 8 o'clock this afternoon, and no verdict being reached at 10 o'clock at night, the jury was locked up until morning There was no in- timation other than mere rumor as to the attitude of the jury. The generally ex- pressed opinion of those who have followed the trial since it's beginning on Monday of last week is that the verdict will be an acquittal. Many, however, look for a dis agreement There are but few but express the belief that a verdict of guilty will be given.
 Today's proceedings were confined to ar gument and speeches by counsel the de- fense deciding to present no testimony. MT. Watson began the day by requesting that the case be withdrawn from the jury and a verdict of not guilty rendered. He con- tended that the commonwealth had utterly failed to make out a case against MT. Quay. Judge Riddle determined the issues were those for a jury to decide and he ruled that it be gone through with in the usual way. MT. Shields here announced the de- fenses intention to take no testimony, and under the rules of the court he thus ob- tained the privilege of making but one, the last speech to the jury.

EXCITEMENT PREVAILS
Strike Situation at Denning Mines is
 Growing Serious.

Little Rock, Ark, April 20.-A special to the Gazette from Altus, Ark, says:
 Much excitement prevails over the strike situation at Denning mines. Several at- tempts have been made by the company to begin work, but the non-union employees were forced by violent threats to abandon
 ark The sheriff last night placed fifty depSaies to guard the companys property and non union men. Several arrests were made today and it is thought the company will take vigorous measures to resume work.
 A later special from Ozark says this morning a number of miners attempted to go to work at the Denning mines but were prevented by a number of unionists, who intimidated, abused and threatened them. The manager of the mines called upon the sheriff to assist him to quel the riot, and he promptly responded by sending a half dozen deputies, who, after considerable efforts succeeded in arresting eight of the union men and incarcerating them in the county jail at this place at o'clock to await trial. The wives of the union men cheered the men arrested and said Stand by your rights" There was considerable excitement this morning at Denning, but no blood was shed. At o'clock this after noon all was quiet in the little town.

The souvenir war album which was re- gently presented to Miss Helen Gould as mark of appreciation of her services during the war contains the autographs of 4,000 sailors and soldiers in the regular and vol unteer service of the army and navy. On eral Shafter and Colonel Theodore Roose- welt, and throughout are written those of the other commanders prominent in the Cuban campaign.
 The getting of signatures, 1t is said, was begun on the battlefield of Santiago by James F. Fairman, hospital steward, Fifth Army Corps, U. s. A., who presented the album to Miss Gould.
 A New York paper tells the story thus: It was originally intended to have the presentation on Christmas Day, as the title page of the album would indicate. The project, however grew to such proportions and tho signatures were added so rapidly that the presentation was deferred. On the title page of the album is the following: Army, Navy, and Volunteer Forces

1.-THE PLAY@


 In his lecture, "Love, Laughter and Song" ex-Governor Bob Taylor entertained a packed house at Brien's last night. The audience represented the culture and re- hnement of Birmingham, and thoroughly enjoyed the pathos and wit of this inimit- lble lecturer. Governor Taylor spoke for nearly two hours, and held his audience almost spell bound for the entire time. In his lecture Governor Taylor advocates let ting love and fun rule the world and pay less attention to the horrors and crimes of which we read. He would tell side-split- ting jokes, and before the audience hardly had time to recover he would branch off into the pathetic side of life and every face would assume grave expression.
 This afternoon at matinee Phil w. and Nettie Peters will resume their engagement at O'Brien's opera house, when "American Born" a strange and well-built patriotic comedy drama, will be presented. There will be a change of bill at each and every performance and the splendid houses that have, greeted this company during the early part of the week are excellent tesu- monials of the performances which these clever performers and their excellent SUD- port present. There will be number of new and clever specialties introduced this afternoon and tonight which have never been, seen here before. There will be four performances during the remainder of the week, beginning with matinee today and closing with Saturday night.
 In speaking of his attraction, the "Jolly Pathfnders," Business Manager Ed H. Barnstead says: Nearly every agent nowadays claims for his show superlative excellence and employs the-Hfest intense language e55r support sAis statement. 1Jp-to- date features are urged with persistence that becomes tiresome. One is constantly reminded of the stickiness of newly vanished job; and perhaps 1t will be re- lief to the amusement-loving public to re- ceive assurance that the Pathfnders are not the greatest people in the world There have been other shows just as good; indeed, some exist row. We simply make tae claim that the Pathfinders present, at popu- lar prices, comedies fully the equal of any produced by any company, regardless Of price. And we are willing to let our first nights performance be the arbiter of our fortunes for the week. We've been, nine teen years in the business-always good as the best. And we own our ~plays-pirate nothing. They're all new here. We have clever comedians, spr1ghtly soubrettes, and twenty capable people, who know how to make the most of legitimate farce-comedy programmes, and that's all there is to it. So far as specialties are concerned, we can give a continuous show if desired-all new stuff"
 The .'Pathfinders' will be at the opera house all next week.

COUNTERFEITERS
 WAIVED HEARING Taylor and BredeII Each Held in
 $10,OOO. ARE ENGLISH ENGRAVERS Admitted Cutting the Plate From Which the Famous $1oo Monroe Head Was Made-Made Stamps
 for Cigars.

Philadelphia April 2O.-Arthur Taylor and Baldwin Bredell, English engravers arrest ed in this city in connection with the counterfeiting cases unearthed by the se- cret service department were arraigned be- fore United States Commissioner Edmunds today. They waved hearing, and were held in s1O,OOO bail each.
 John D. Wilkie, chief of the secret ser- vice, testified as to the facts of the arrest. In the work rooms of Taylor and Bredelfs place were two engraving desks. Under Bredells table Chief Wilkie said there was a drawer in which was found two untinish- ed counterfeit cigar stamp plates. The de- tectives also found a $50 silver certificate plate and proof of the back of a $50 note.
 Chief Wilkie testified further that both Taylor and Bredell showed an inclination to asst the secret service men in arrest ing the others implicated in the conspira- ey. Taylor informed him that William M. Jacobs, the Lancaster cigar manufactures, who was arrested yesterday, approached him nearly five years ago with proposition which he accepted-to engrave cigar stamp plates. For this work Jacobs paid him several thousand dollars. When the first set wore out Taylor made another
 Taylor and Bredel admitted cutting the plate from which the famous $100 Monroe head" certificate was made. This plate was seized at Kendig's cigar factory in Lancaster yesterday. Taylor told Wilkie that not over $10,000 of the $100 certificates had been issued by himself and Bredell He could not say how many revenue stamps were printed
 In Jacobs factory Chief Wilkie said nine tons of imprinted internal revenue paper was found. This is sufficient for 4OOOO,O0O cigars.
 Washington, April 20.-The officials of the internal revenue bureau are unable to even approximate the amount of the coun- terfeit revenue stamps made use of by the cigar manufacturers of Lancaster, Pa, who were arrested yesterday. The evidence against all the men, it is said, is over whelming. The maximum term of impris- onment in such cases is fifteen years un- der each indictment, and in most of the cases the secret service agent thinks at least four indictments will be sustained by the court.
