authorities agree in surmising that Presi-
dent McKinley's reference to mo en-
tangling alliances was slipped in as a
result of Mr.. Chamberlain's remarks.
The message Itself is regarded by the
weeklies as non-committal. The Speaker
describes 1t as IAN admirable instance of
the art of saying nothing by allocuting a

FRENCH CARICATURES.
Premier Waldeck- Rousseau's action in
structing the Paris news vendors that the
sale of German, as well as French car
features of the queen will render them
liable to prosecution, is a finely ironical
reply to British criticism of the French
press. While Mr.. Chamberlain was de-
nouncing France for villifying the queen
and protesting friendship for Germany,
he overlooked the fact that caricatures
almost equally offensive to the British
are appearing in Germany, especially in
the Kladderadatsch. AS a correspondent
of the Times points out this sheet is of
far more standing than the offending
French journals, and perpetrated at the

character; yet no steps were taken to

MIR. CHAMBERLAIN UNREPENTANT
Mr.. Chamberlain shows no signs of re-
pentance or desire to recant his Leicester
speech When questioned by a represent
alive of the Associated Press, in this con-
nection, the colonial secretary replied:
81 have nothing to add to what-I have
already said"
In the meantime Lord Salisbury has
refrained from making any public utter
anceS TO offset the colonial secretary s
remarks. AS the Associated Press said
at the time Mr.. Chamberlain spoke with
out the authorization of his chief, and
much to the chagrin of the latter. but 1t
would be a gross breach of etiquette for
the foreign Office to issue a formal dis
avowaf of Mr.. Chamberlain's statements.
However, frequent articles appear, ap-
parently inspired, in papers which warm
ly supported Mr.. Chamberlain's war pol
Icy, denouncing his Leicester speech, both
for its alliance and anti-French compo-
nent. The Saturday Review, speaking on
evident authority, says:
ut is possible that certain situation

MAN ABOUT TO Strike Divine Heal
Drops Dead.
BUTTE, Mont, Dec. 9.-During the ex-
element attending a controversy over re-
ligion between ]. S. Charlebois, divine
healer. and Malachy Dwyer, Of Butte,
this afternoon, Dwyer attempted to strike
the healer and dropped dead before he
could do so. Charlebois says he appealed
to heaven for protection against his as
sailant. and believes that Dryers death
was an act of Providence.
Both men have been regarded as cranKs
on religion. They met this noon in the
Butte public library, where both were
looking up literature on religious sub
jects, and they became involved in a dis
cussion over different beliefs During the
controversy CharlebOis produced table
of letters and figures which, he said, had
come to him by inspiration. The figures
footed up a total of $685. and he felt GER
tain they had some deep and sacred
meaning.
He asked Dwyer for his opinion and
the latter expressed the belief that they
had anti-Christ significance, whereupon
the healer made a statement that he had
been told that the figures were tattooed
on the pOpe's forehead. This so angered
Dwyer that he applied an epithet to the
healer and raised up to strike him.
Il stood up and put my trust in God
and his protection said Charlebois to-
night, and Dwyer dropped dead"
Dwyer died almost instantly. The cor
oner's physician, who made the examina-
tiCn, says that death was due TO heart
disease. Dwyer was siXty-eight years Of
age, and q well known old time resident
of Butte. Formerly he was instructor in

POLITICAL DRAWBACKS.
1t appears that the forward movement

quently observed that if it is necessary
to preserve the lines of communication
with such large forces when operating
in British territory it will be most essen
tial to do so when the head of the COL
umn reaches an avowedly hostile coun-
| try.
That Ladysmith will be relieved, and
shortly, is now taken as a matter of
course, though in the same breadth it
is admitted that decisive engagement
must be fought before this is accom-
plished. Nothing has been more prom
inently brought out during the two
months of the war than the fact that the
Beers never attack, as Gen. Garcia said,
last year of the Cubans. With their
wonderful mobility the Beers are en-
abled to take up, one after another,
carefully selected positions, in every
instance daring the British generals to
attack them, and retiring, after inf1ict-
ing severe loss, to other positions equal
ly good and apparently previously pre-
pared. If such tactics continue it
seems possible that the relieving force
will reach Ladysmith so crippled that

kind" he explains
Say that you want to stop a runaway
team. If you feel that you are at all
AFRAID, keep away and let the team go
on. Your nerve must be right or you'll
fail; that may mean your death, and the
team is not worth it.
If You aren't afraid, get out into the
road directly in front of the team and
keep right in front of them They may
try to avoid you, but keep right in front
of them. You must think quickly See
which horse is running hardest; he is
the grittiest horse, and is the one to
nail. In almost every runaway, If you
notice closely, you will find one of them
galloping and the other running and
jumping, with his black eyeballs almost
squirting out of his head, and his nostrils
like the bell of a trumpet. He Is the one
that is doing the mischief, and will run
until he dies.
He is the one You must take. When
they get within few feet of you they
will no longer attempt to swerve; they
are going over your body if you stand
there. Wait until they are SO close you
can feel their breath. Then step aside
as quickly as possible; step on the out
side of the vicious horse. Here comes
the test, and you must step aside just in
the nick of time
Get your arm securely around your
horses neck. Don's be afraid; he is too
busy running to think of shaking you
off. Then you will find your feet are
striking the ground about every fifteen
feet. After you are sure of your hold
on bride and neck, reach over and carch
the other horses inside rein. You can do
this easily. Then begin to give the horse
that is carrying you a taste Of your mus
Gle. Jerk him as though you would tear
his head off. II he has the right spirit
you will find this necessary. He is full of
grit and won't give up by pulling. Every
time your feet hit the ground brace your
self against the bit and swing hard on
him with a jerk. Work on, the other
horses rein and you will find him re-
spond readily.

CHARACTER IN CH1Ns.
How They Indicate the Character
and Traits of Persons.

1t is now declared that the chin is t

or hand. to indicate the charac er OF i S
possessor. A sharp eye and good judg-
ment are necessary for determining the
character of any one by his chin. a
stroDg, projecting chin is an in II, alton Of
an iron will and no small intelligence. Men
and women so endowed usually succeed in
oil of their undertakings The opposite is
the case with those persons whose chins
recede. This is a sign of limited intel
lectual power and physical and moral
weakness; an indication of those very
good-natured, yielding persons, who are
easily discouraged, led astray, and have
little power of initiative. II, however,
the other features are strong. If the nose
is well arched, the brow broad and arch
ed, the eye large and intal;gent-the re-
treating chin is not so positive an il dica-
ton of mental delinquencies; In fact, this

An Easy Way to Keep Well.
1t is easy to keep we'll if we would only
observe each day a few simple rules of
health.
The all important thing Is to keep the
stomach right. and to do this 1t is not
necessary to diet OR to follow a set rule
or bill of fare. Such pampering simply
makes capricious appetite and a feeling
that certain favorite articles of food must
be avoided
Prof. Wiechold gives pretty good advice
on this subject, he says: IT am sixty
eight years old and have never had a
serious Illness, and at the same time my
life has been largely indoor one, but
I early discovered that the way to keep
healthy was to keep healthy stomach,
not by eating bran crackers or dieting of
any sort on the contrary / always eat
what my appetite Graves, but for the past
eight years / have made 1t a daily prac-
tice to take one or two Of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal and I at
tribute my robust health for a man of
my age to the regular daily use of
Stuarts Tablets.
My physician first advised me to use
them because he said they were perfectly
harmless and were not a secret patent
medicine, but contained only the natural
digestives, peptones and diastase and
after using them a few weeks 1 have
never ceased to thank him for his advice
l honestly believe the habit of taking
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after meals IS
the real health habit because their use
brings health to the sick and ailing and
