ground yesterday afternoon and the
loss is estimated at $780, O0O. At the
same time the contents of G. \. Brock

fire and water, the stock being of such
a character that to have water thrown
upon it is to completely ruin it. c..
a. Brocett's loss is placed at $l5. 600
Both buildings and their contents
were covered:by insurance. On account
of.being unable to get at the'polices
it could not be learned what compan-
les carried the insurance, but there is
no doubt but that the whole loss is
fully covered.

BROKEN BRIC-A-BRACS

Mr. Major, the famous cement man, of New
YORK explains some very interesting facts
about Majors Cement.
The mutitudes who use this standard article
know that II Is many undred per cent better
than other dement's for which similar claims
are made, but great many do not know why.
The simple reason is that Mr.. Major uses the
best materials ever discovered and other man.
ufabturers do not use them because they arc
dr, Major tells us that one Of the elements OF
his cement costs 1915 pound. and another
EGO gallon, while a large share of the so
called cements and liquid glue upon the mark
cts are nothing more than sixteen-cent glue,
dissolved in water or citric acid, and, in some
cases altered slightly In color and odor by the
addition of cheap and useless materials,
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents a bottle and when a dealer
tries TO sell substitute you can depend upon
II that his only object is TO make larger profit
fhe profit on major cement is az much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement And
this is doubly true in view of the fact that each
dealer gets his his share Of the benefit OF Mr..
Majors advertising, which nowamounts to over
5000 month, throughout the country. Estab-
lished In 1876.

The Macabebes are ''hikers" and
from the beginning they had struck a

which necessitated the sergeant call

when the halt was called they sank

About q half mile further up the

WON'T GET MAIL
Judge Thayer Holds the Postmaster
General May Exclude Matter
From the Post

st. Louis, nune l5.-Judge Amos
Thayer of the United States circuit
court announced a decision to-day
against j. H. Kelly and S. A..
Weltmer, representing the American
School of Magnetic Healing, in their
suit against j. NJ. McAnnulty post
master of Nevada, Mo. The motion Of
the compliments. for temporary
injunction to restrain Postmaster
McAnnualty from interfering with
mail addressed to them was denied.
The postofiice authorities charged
that Kelly and Weltmer, as the pro-
prietors of the American School of
Magnetic Healing, had used the mails
for fraudulent purposes. Accordingly
the matter was submitted to the post
master generel, who issued instructions
to McAnnulty to return all mail for
the institution, whether registerd or
otherwise, to the senders.
The right of the Postmaster Genera
to promulgate such sweeping order
was questioned, and upon appeal to
the United States court a temporary
restraining order against the Nevada
postmaster was granted
Judge Thayer holds that the federal
court has no jurisdiction. Hesays the
Postmaster General is acting within
the limits of the authority granted 10y
Congress when he excluded from the
mail, any letters, packages or other
matter which is calculated to promote
or help any scheme to defraud. He
states further that the power conferred
on the Postmaster General is quasi
judicial and therefore beyond the iuris-
lotion of the United States court.
