Denies tho Authenticity of n Recent
Reported Interview.
Chicago, Aug l1.-In a personal let
ter to H. H. Kohlsaat, of the Chicago
Times Herald, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the
Canadian premier, denies the truth Of
an interview recently given out by f..
w. Fitzpatrick. of the treasury depart
ment Washington, in which MIR. Fitz-
patrick asserted that Premier Laurier
had stated to him he would not ac-
cept an invitation to the Chicago Au-
gust festival, believing the somewhat
strained relations between the two
countries might result in some unpleas-
ant incident durnig his visit. In his
letter Premier Laurier says
you are at liberty to say that have
paid no attention to an interview pub
lished recently In a Washington paper,
in which the reporter purported to give
to the public words not spoken to him
by me- but to somebody else Life Is too
short for a busy man to take notice of
this kind or any kind of hearsay evi-
dence. If l had any communication to
make to the public l would prefer to
make It directly, and in my own words.
1t seems to me that | need hardly add
that the invitation of the Chicago au-
thorities will receive from me the most
courteous consideration
A meeting of the committee on invi-
tations will be held today, at which
time the Canadian premier will be cor
daily invited to attend the festival.
This will be the first invitation extend
ed to Premier Laurier as the members
of the committee deny that Mr.. Fitz-
patrick had any authority to invite

A Hundred Policemen Before the LeR-
islatiye Investigating Committee.
New York, Aug. 11.-More than 100
patrolmen In uniform filled the seats
reserved for witnesses before the Mazet
legislative investigating committee
yesterday. They came from all parts
of the city, from Coney Island to the
Bronx. Mr.. Moss then said that the
only book furnished him by Captain
McCluskey's detective bureau showing
robberies was a record of property re-
covered The property appearing
therein does not appear on the chiefs
book. Mr.. Moss read from the book
the value of the property recovered. 1t
showed that property from all over
the United States was brought to New
York and disposed of in pawnshops
and other places. "It appears from
this" said Mr.. Moss, that thieves who
live here go into the outlying dis
tricts to commit robbeTies and then
bring their plumber to this city and get
rid of 1t here"
Yesterday" said Mr.. Moss, 1--WE put

The readers Of this paper will be pleased to
learn that there Is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages, and that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires a constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation Of
the disease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors have
so much faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that II
fails to cure Send for list OF testimonials.

Facts are stubborn things. Here
are few Of them dished up for the
edifcation and enlightment of those
depressed patriots, the calamity
howlers. Read and reflect:
The collieries in this region are
working five days, and yet Park Place
colliery could easily place fifty OF
sixty more hands; Buck Mountain
could give employment to hundred
more miners, and Vulcan colliery is
short to the extent of fifty or sixty
men. And so we might continue.
The Jeanesville shops are plodding
along on a firm basis, and the busy
artisans are in happy mood. Last
month thirteen large mine pumps
were shipped from these works, and
the business aggregated over 1913, 900.
The Jackson & Woodin Company
is securing the state for two hundred
additional skilled hands, and the
F'ricke Coke Company is making ex-
tensive improvements at its plants.
The Carpenter Steel Company, at
Reading, has put its pudding depart
ment into operation, after a years
idleness, and what is more to the
point, the puddlers receive five dollars
per day.
The Weatherly Silk Mill is working
night and day, and capitalists at
Shamokin have decided to erect a
similar plant in that town.
At Steelton everything is on the
jump, from fifty to one hundred new
names being added to the pay rolls
without dropping the old ones while
the Baldwin works are running night
and day without a stop, with orders
booked two years in advance.
In the Connellsville coke region
agents are running up and down the
state in an effort to secure $4,000 addi
tional men, while here in the anthra
cite region the mines are working
more steadily than for years.
The slate men are exporting slate
in enormous bulk, even to slate-mak
ing Wales.
The Pencoyd Works are crowded
with busy artisans night and day
and reports say the ship yards alone
the Delaware cannot meet tn,

There are not sufficient cars in tn,

Colorado Springs, Aug. 11.-Gus Nc
Kemie, prominent cotton merchant
and a member of the school board of
Gainesville, Tex, was killed in row
with hotel walters at the Barker hotel
in Matou yesterday. Head Waiter
Groves had demonstrated with Mrs.
Mckenzie for insisting upon entering
the dining room before he was ready
for guests. He was later accused by
Mr. Mckenzie of having spoken insult
ingly to Mrs Mckenzie, and an apol-
ogy was demanded. The two grappled
and a great throng of walters and
guests gathered, Mr. Mckenzie being
wounded in the melee by blow on the
left side of the head, which proved
fatal. George Mccormick, one of the
walters, is under arrest charged with

Consumption Cured.

BROUGHT BACK FROM THE GRAVE.
Last November Mr.. Joseph James,
painter, of 325 w. Pearl St., Indianapo-
lis, Ind, was at deaths door with quick
consumption. Wasted to a skeleton;
his lungs a mass of liberation; his
death was hourly awaited by his doctor
and family. He was kept in a constant
stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him
bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seeing its
wonderful effect, the doctor advised its
continued use. Mr., James soon after
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and in February he
returned to work. His lungs are sound,
and his weight greater than at any time
in his life. His recovery is regarded as
almost a miracle.

A MILLION DOLLARS LOSS.

Hail Creates Great Havoc I'm wheat
Fields Of North Dakota.
Fargo, NJ D., Aug. 1.-Two million
bushels of wheat are estimated TO have
heen lost In yesterdays hailstorm,
which partially destroyed the crop on
nearly 250,000 acres Of land in the
state. The total loss will be 81 900 900
Farmers who were busily engaged in
cutting wheat were driven to their
barns for shelter and afterward found
II necessary to take the binders back
to the fields, as the grain had been har
vested by the hail i'm a few brief mo-
ments. Just before II o'clock the
storm struck the northern part of Cass
and the southern part of Trail coun-
ties
In addition to big area over which
hail fell thicl5ly, heavy wind and rain
storms completed the destruction of
thousands of acres of grain on either
side of the center of the path of the
hail, covering an area Is miles north
and south between Argusville and
Gardner, in Cass county to Kelso, in
TIaill county, and on the east and
west territory ranging from five miles
wide on the south to fifteen or twenty
on the north is practically devastated.
Losses are estimated all the way from
25 to 100 per cent of the crop. The
acreage loss in Cass and Trail counties
Is placed at from 100000 to 100000
acres. Many conservative estimators
say that 50 per cent of the crop on
l25,000 acres are not too large figures
for the destruction in Cass and Trail.
The destruction Is so complete in many
parts of the devastated territory that
no effort will be made to harvest what
