Another Consumption Cure.

Prof Weinzierl of the university of New Mexico, conducting experiments under the authority of the university biological department, has evoked what it pronounces a complete cure of consumption. By careful testing, he announces he has determined that the transitory effects upon the blood cor puscles of a person passing from a lower to a higher altitude are renewed by frequent changes of altitude. By occasional visits to the sea level, he says the system can be invigorated, even when the effects of the higher altitude have been worn of

A telegram from Leavenworth says Last night about 10 o'clock a masked mob of saloon wreckers entered sa. loon owned by John Hudson at Mil wood and attempted to wreck the place. Hudson grappled with one and in the struggle shot gun which the man carried was discharged. Hud sons wife, who was attracted by the noise, ran screaming into the room and another shot tore the top of heI head of, killing her instantly. Win Webb, one of the raiders, was shot in the shoulder. The mob finally left without wrecking the place. Four ar rests have been made and others will follow. All the men arrested are prom inent farmers. No women were in the mob.

SENSATIONAL CLOSE OF
CASE AGAINST HEARN

Georgetown, July 11.-Atter a dra-
matte scene during the final pleas in
the case of Louder N. Hearn, accused
of sedHcing girl, the jury returned
verdict of acquittal.
With the evidence all in, the sensa-
tional case was presented to the jury
in most fluent language from the time
the young deputy Encouragement,
Robert Richards, began the summing
up of the State testimony until Attor-
ney-G General Ward concluded, immedi-
stely following ex-COngressman Handy
for the defense. Mr.. Handy threw his
arms around Hearn and the two wept
while Mr. Richardson was addressing
the biry.
The most dramatic incident of the
argument was when Mr.. Handy seized
| the Bible upon which the jurors were
sworn and. turning to the seventh
chapter Of Proverbs. read that remark
able story. applying it to the girls in the
case who had testified against Hearn.

hoping to obtain employment by the

power.
He called first on Senator Gray who
became interested but said he knew OF
nothing outside of the civil service. After
some days, he advised Moore to try ths
examination.
I. "The young man. fresh from the law
school. made the necessary application
and at the time appointed tackled tbs
questions which the board had prepared

WaYfarer YIsIts Raihhonse


Come on, fellers, let's go swimmin',
were the words spoken by a dusty little
urchln to . half dozen OF his friends in
jackson street north of Delaware avenue,
The other day. The Wayfarer's attention
was drawn to the little fellows by the
prompt manner in which the invitation
was accepted and the answer was in
unison. wait till we get our tights"
{. While the boys scampered home for
their bathirg apparel, the Wayfarer
questioned the waiting lad.
o Where do you bathe, my lad?" he
asked
"Why, down to the free bathhouse on
the Brandywine, mister. Halnt you never
been there?
II never have been inside the bath
house" was the reply. ..
"Well, gee, you miss lots uf fun, fer
we have a bully time swimmin' and
divin. and say, mister, you KIN hire
tights from the man at the bathhouse II
you want to go swimmin. We fellers go
in there most every afternoon and hot
days we goes in twice or three times"
BY this time the other six barefooted
boys scampered up and the seven went
down jackson street towards the bath
house The Wayfarer followed.
At the bathhouse there were about
100 boys who were waiting for the doors
to open and they did not have long to
wait
The wayfarer followed into the square
enclosure where the lads scampered of
ito the dressing rooms to don their scant
and abbreviated bathing suits. In about
three minutes they were ready for the
plungs and they resembled carnival
Of miniature skeletons.
They plunged into the square pond div
Ing and swimming like water rats and
spanlels.
II was as much as the Waygarer could
do to keep from joining in ihe merry
romp for It brought to his mind a oool
deep millpond, near a country village,
where not many years ago he took part
in just such sports, only under more free
and dangerous surroundings.
There was no custodian of the village
bath, and fst-cuff fights between the
boys we're not infreQuent. These battles
generally arose over some malicious and
mischevous boy tying hard knots in tn,
sleeves of a brothers blouse to make hin
'chaw beef" The knots usually were
wetted and drawn so tight that it re-
quired the full power of teeth and fingers
to get them united.
There seems to be nothing OF that soB
in the public bathhouse for the lads
while they are full of mischief content
themselves by ducking each other. Super.
intendent Curran keeps the boys in goot
order and Il is rarely that he has to cal
a police officer to have the rules en-
forced.

Monday night is reserved for specia

a NATIONAL UNIVERSITY

Since considerable number Of the

so anxious for Congress to establish a
national university, It may be interest
ing and profitable to imagine such ail
institution in active operation, to the
end that its full merits may be under
stood.
It's seat, Of course. would be in Wash
ington, where the atmosphere is sur
charged with learning, and where the
academic spirit is the dominant factor
In both social and political life. The
student would have before him constant
examples OF men being called to the
highest civic positions, because then
constituents recognized their scholarly
attainments. He would net be able to
traverse square without stumbling
over some sockless statesman busy in
the translation Of a Sanscrit poem. or
calculating a problem OF Euclid.
One could hardly exaggerate the
valuo Of daily contact with the South
ern colonel bent on obtaining foreihn
mission. or I'm meeting the picturesque
Western statesman of careless de-
meanor and florid language. And
what inspiration for the student OF
language to visit the sessions OF Con
gress and hear such noble expressions
as Mr.. Speaker. where am | at?" ard
In all my experience Mr. Speaker. /
