Tom Hurley was arrested Saturday
night by Sergeant Donovan on the
charge of burglarizing the store of w

About 10 o'clock a telephone message
was received at police station that the
store had been burglarized and the
burglar captured. The patrol brought
Hurley to the station. The store had
been entered through the front window.
Osborn said that the neighbors heard
someone in the store and called him.
He got his revolver and went to the
store, determined to shoot the burglar
if he got a. chance. He was aiming his
revolver at the man on the inside. when
the burglar said: Don't shoot" He
recognized the voice of Hurley. When
taken to the station the prisoner ex-
planned that he had been drinking and
did not know what he was doing. He
said that he sat down in front of the
window, leaned back and broke the
glass. He said he got nothing in the

THE MAKING OF KHAKI.
[From the London Leader.l

The eyes of the public are naturally
riVeted on the marching and counter
marching, the siege and conflicts of
armed men in Africa, but those who
hind the scenes at the army clothing
stores in Pimlico. INTO this establish
ment troop every morning at $50
o'clock !. 800 women, and here they re-
main till nearly o'clock in the even
ing, basting and sewing the khaki in
which Tommy" goes campaigning to
Table Bay.
Some of them are mere girls of six
teen, others women of sixty; but all
are hard at it, even to the extent oc
casionally of several hours overtime.
Khaki is thin stuff, and so some
twenty stretches may be pressed one
on top of the other, and upon these the
razor-l like steam driven blades descend,
cutting out at a stroke twenty of any
given part of a garment.
With great coat cloth, of course, only
some ten thicknesses can be pressed to-
gether Once cut the cloth passes
through three sets of women workers
the sewer, the machinist and the but
ton-hole maker-which shows that the
subdivision of labor goes to far less
length in the government workshops
than in the great private tailoring fac
tories.
The army clothing stores have been
turning out khaki uniforms at the rate
of LOO or 1 200 a week. But contract
ors in the metropolis the Midlands and
Ireland have been equally busy.
Curiously enough, the stalwarts of
the Household cavalry, who recently
rode through London at midnight to-
ward the embarkation center, do not
rely on either the stores or the con-
tractors to give them their uniforms.
They get the material and have the
garments made themselves

THE STARVATION PLAN
OF Treating Dyspepsia and Stomach
Troubles IS Useless and
UnScientific.

The almost certain failure of the star
walton cure for dyspepsia has been
proven time and again, but even now
course of dieting is generally the first
thing recommended for a case of indi-
gestion or any stomach trouble.
Many people with weak digestion, as
well as some physicians, consider the
first step to take in attempting to cure
indigestion is to restrict the diet, either
by selecting certain foods and rejecting
others or to cut down the amount of
food eaten to barely enough to keep
soul and body together, in other words
the starvation plan is by many supposed
to be the first essential.
All this is radically wrong. It is fool
ish and unscientiic to recommend diet
ing to a man already suffering from
starvation because indigestion itself
starves every organ, nerve and fibre in
the body.
What people with poor digestion most
need is abundant nutrition, plenty of
good, wholesome, properly cooked food,
and something to assist the weak stom-
ach to digest it.
This is exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted
and. the true reason why they cure the
worst cases of stomach troubles.
Eat a sufficient amount of wholesome
food and after each meal take one or
two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to
promptly digest it.
In this way the system is nourished
and the overworked stomach rested, be-
cause the tablets will digest the food
whether the stomach works or not, one
grain of the active digestive principle
in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets being suf-
fcient to digest 5000 grains of meat,
eggs or other albuminous food.
DR.. Harlandson and DR.. Redwell rec
commended these tablets in all cases of
defective digestion because the pepsin
and diastase in them are absolutely free
from animal matter and other impure
ties and being pleasant to the taste are
as safe and harmless for child as for
the adult.
preparation and the daily use of them
after meals will be of great benefit, not
only as an immediate relief. but to per-
manently build up and inyigorate the
| digestive organs.

REED AT OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

ID S. Alexander in BowdOin Quill
The Bowdoin student who visits the
old, rambling Woodside home,in Bunga-

upon the walls of its large, loW-ceiled
parlor, the portrait of a young man,
with dark hair falling generously in
ringlets over a broad, slightly reced1ng
forehead and a very ELUSIVE necktle
covering the larger part of an expan-

The Bulletin de Noticas of Puerto Ca

an incident which recently occurred ia
that place, in which United States Con-

which is headed, "a Life Saved From

so distracted were they that the
passing of a person who turned out to
be the very well known old gentleman
and musician, Vicente Blanco, was not
noted. Suddenly they heard a splash,
Immediately followed by the voice of
Blanco calling for help. Running toward
the point whence the cries came, and
recognizing the fact that an unfoF

waves sustaining himself only by his
bass viol. which was serving him for
a buoy, they told him to come nearer
the wharf, but the poor old man in his
confusion continued going further sea-

TOO READY TO STRIKE.
Chicago Labor Leaders Getting
More Than They Want.

Chicago, March 5.-The labor situa-
ton in Chicago took on a new phase
today. The rapidity with which the
strike of the Union Machinists has
spread. and the apparent Willingness of
the non union machinists to follow the
example of the union men in laying
down their tools has made the labor
leaders rather apprehensiye of the
strike becoming unWie1dy and President
O'Connell of the International Associa-
ton of Machinists said today that for
the present at least nOn-uniOn strikers
would not receive the encouragement of
the union. Efforts Will be made to con-
line the trouble to union machinistS ana
sympathetic strikes will be avoided I'M
til the situation demands support of
that character. President O'Conneu also
made the statement that no strike will
be ordered among the machinists en-
ployed by traffic lines.
1T is not the intention to allow the
strike to interfere with the public con-
venience." said President O'Connell,
land have issued strict orders to this
effect.
Union men employed by all traffic
lines not only the railroads but the sur
face and elevated roads in Chicago as
we'll, have been told that strikes will
not be countenanced; not only that but
if they walk out I will fill their places
Immediately"
About two hundred machinists walk
ed out OF the Illinois Steel cOmpany'S
plant at South Chicago today, but a
hundred and fifty of them returned to
work at once, convinced that the strike
would be failure.
1t was reported that the company had
about hundred men ready to take the
places of the strikers Immediately and
this apparently had a depressing effect.
Trouble had been apprehended at this
point and a large force of police was
on hand but the strikers left the
grounds after fhaxy 1ai hoi
tools, and no disorder occurred. Not
withstanding this fact, heavy reserve
forces are being kept at the various po-
lice stations for possible emergencies.
