New Cabinet Officers.

Now that the Presidential ele ,t!on
has been decided, the most important
question is the selection of Trustworthy
men for the cabinet, and we hope the
changes made will prove beeficial to
the country's interests. In private life
the people are also making many
changes made will prove beneficial to
their health. When their stomach, be-
come weak, their nerves unstrunx, and
dyspepsia, Indigestion, nervousness,
and sleeplessness result, they try this
and that medicine without getting re-
lief. What they need is Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, the only sure cure
for these ailments, and after giving 1t
a fair trial, they will be convinced that
this is the medicine that they have been
looking for. II you are among these
sufferers and want to get well, try it at

JEFFRiES-RHUlIN FIGHT,
Suit to Prevent Its Being Brought Off
in Cincinnati.

Cincinnati, Jan. 29.-The suit to en-.
join the proposed Jeffries-Rulin con
test a filed in the court of common
pleas today. The application for an in,
junction was not made at that time.
Judge Hollister, who is sitting in the
common pleas room No. |, where the
hearing will be held, will be asked sew
eral days later to issue an injunction.
In the interium notices will be served
on the defendants. They are members
of the original Saengerfest board of
trustees, against whom judgment has
been rendered for the matter; also the
members of the Saengerfest Athletic
association company which the attor-
neys describe as a paper organization
with a capital of $300.10. Messrs. JEFF
fries and Rhulin and the members of
the Geological corporation, which holds
the site of the Saengerfest hall, are al
so made defendants.
The legal ground upon which this
action is taken is that the proposed af.
fair would be in every sense a public
nuisance. The petition covers only five
pages of typewriter matter and the
principal averments are described in a
quotation from an Ohio supreme court
statement regarding prize fights:
THE supreme court is on record in
books as having stated that prize fights
are exhibitions of brutality: that they
are contests dangerous to life as we'll
as demoralizing and pernicious in eff.
feet on the we'll being and good order
of society"
"Toughs and Vicious People,"
In addition to this statement from
the highest tribunal in the state, the
attorneys aver that the contest in ques
tion would lead to the gathering OF
toughs and crowds of idle and vicious
people whose presence would be a
menace to life, good order, property
and the welfare of the community in
general during their stay in the city
The attorneys who are pressing this
case are Gustavus H. Valid, Lawrence
Maxwell, jr., Hon. J. w. Heron, E. W
k%ittridge and ]. H. Warrington and ex
United States Attorney General Judsor
Harmon. The exact time for a hear
ing on the motion for an injunction
has not been fixed, but the court will
be asked to fix as early a day as pos.
sible. Meanwhile counsel for the de,
PENDANTS will prepare an answer and
then will occur a legal contest between
giants of the bar.

DOG II
In tho In Lila Territory Cowboys Lasso
the Dogs.

In tho In iial Territory Cowboy. Lasso
the Dogs.
The dog catcher of a town in the In
dian Territory can give a New York
city dog catcher cards and spades and
then beat him as a capturer of canine
animals, says the New York Press.
An expert cowboy hunts dogs as he
does cattle. He ropes them the same
way. Clad in a pair Of buckskin trou-
sers, and wearing a big sombrero with
rope in hand or on the saddle horn and
a SIX shooter in his belt, he starts
down the street on his broncho look
Ing for dogs. AS he spies one which
has NO legal right to roam at large he
sticks the u to his pony, grabs his
rope and begins operations. He usual
ly ropes the dog around the neck,
draws him to the pony's side and
shoots him. He then stuffs the carcass
into a sack attached to the saddle and
gallops off after nor game" If a
stranger is watching the performance
the dog catcher does some fancy rop-
Ing. He will !ope the dog around the
front or hind foot, or around the body
between the feet. He hardly ever
misses his mark. Dog catching in the
Indian country is a more ticklish bust
ness than it is in the cities in the
states. The catcher not only has to
dodge %fiatirons, mop sticks and brooms
thrown by irate (for a wild
looking cowboy with a s~iX-shooter has
no terror to an Indian Territory wO-
mani, but he has Indians to deal with.
An Indian thinks almost as much of
his dog as he does of his kids. and If
the dog catcher by mistake kills 1t
there is trouble. Dogs belonging to an
Indian are exempt from taxation. But
the Indians must brand them. The
dogs Of non-citizens are the ones dis
eliminated against. II their masters
fail to pay tax on them then they must
pay the penalty of death. In order to
eyade the tax occasionally a non-citi-
zen forges a brand and marks his dog
as If it belonged to an Indian. In order
to prevent frauds ct this character the
dog catcher must be an expert on dog
brands.

Department Store Ruined-The Great
Structure Wae Soon EnveIoped in

Will Cover the Loss

Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 29.-Ffrc
which broke out early this morning in
Frankel Bros department store, cor
ner Sixth and Walnut streets, destroy.
ed over a half million dollars worth of
property. The fire was first discover
ed by a patrolman at 3:05 a. M, in the
corner of the clothing department com
ing direct from the basement. 1t was
but a moment before the whole build,
ing was in flames. Every available
fireman in the city was ordered out,
but the structure was doomed before
they arrived and their attention was
largely devoted to saving the adjoin,
ing structures, consisting of the Des
Moines National bank, the Utica Cloth
ing company and the Seeley depart
ment store. By 6 o'clock a solitary
wall of the six-story Frankel building
was left standing and the firemen pull
ed that down. Not a dollar of the $50,
600 dollar stock was saved and the de-
struction of the property is complete.

was saved, although damaged to the
extent of several thousand dollars. The
Utica Clothing company, the Seeley de
partment store, upon the adjoining
corners, suffered similarly in the dam
age of stock and fixtures.
The Heaviest Losses.
The loss of the Frankels is estimat-
ed at 1915, 900, consisting of s225,o00
on the stock and s125, 900 on the build
ing. The firm has announced already
that they will rebuild.
The destruction of the electric. tele-
phone and telegraph wires as a conse-
Guence of the fire lead to a temporary
abandonment of the street car service
and the operation of many factories
dependent upon power furnished them.
The heaviest losses are:
Frankel Bros. $375.OOO; Younkcr

MARQUIS oFlLANsDowNE.
Only Mah In tho British C.bins
Who Gould Speak French.

- Only mar In the British Cabinet
Who GOULD Speak French.
When the Marquis of Lansdowne was
governor-general OF Canada he had to
make q speech to the French-Cana-
dams, says N. A. P. With all Its 10y
atty to the English connection. this
little bit of transported France adheres
very risidly to many things French and
especially to the purity Of the French
tongue-at least as 1t was spoken in
the eighteenth century. Few viceroys
have ever ventured accordingly to
leave the safe security Of the English
tongue, and It was with some trepida-
ton that the French Canadians heard
that Lord L~ansdowne was going to de-
liver a speech to them in their
language. But he had scarcely uttered
the word "messieurs" when the whole
audience burst into cheers; they rec
ognized at n the accent Of the true
French tongue. the accent only posi-
BILE to a man Of French blood, and one
who had spoken French " his mother
tongue. It il perhaps this accomplish
ment which had something to do with
Lord L~ansdowne's latest appointment.
When some one demonstrated with
Lord Salisbury for retaining the two
ofaces of prime minister and foreign
secretary. his reply vas that he could
not help himself. there was but nj
msmbsr Of his cabinet who could
speak French. and that was Lord
LAnsdowne. And now Lord Lansdowne
will receive the foreign ambassadors
every Wednesday afternoon and what
ever else may be found fault with, his
French will be faultless. Lord Lans-
downe's mother was a daughter Of Gen.

Short Sermon on this Proper Training
of Children.

OF Chtlur6ns
Some parents, remember! Not all
parents. Various recent occurrences so
shocking as to arouse universal repul-
sion and horror, seem to indicate that
there is a screw loose somewhere else
than in the laws Of the country or in
the moral constitution of society. Such
things don't happen all at once. They
come from gradual cause and from an
increasing carelessness in the ordin-
airy safeguards to decent living.
II morality is the product Of evolu-
ton, as the scientists say, we seem yet
to be a long way from the perfect prod
uct. Possibly, If W were to try the
evolutionary theory Of extinction OF
the unfit, we might find a considerable
wedding out of parents to be a help
in the solution. The Greeks had their
convenient way of disposing Of use
less people, but the Greek way seems
to us like the worst sort Of savagery,
1t had an element of modern force,
however. How would it do to try state
management for the families of the
parents who cannot manage to keep
their children at home nights-or,
make them happy there? How about
the parents who don't even try and
who have nc more idea Of systematic
training in morality than they have of
the worldwide economic value Of the
ounce Of prevention" The modern
method Of bringing up children is get
ting to be increasingly on the theory
that knowledge is power" that the
more children can gather of the life
Of the streets and the life of the world
the better. In fact, the belief in
knowledge alone is the bane Of the
day. We have manual training and
physical training and athletic train
ing, but the finest training Of all-the
training Of the home-is sighted.
To give boys and girls sound. whole
some bodies is a fine thing; perhaps 1t
Is ever finer than to give them we'll
trained brains. but finest Of all is 1t
to make them Of pure heart and clean
speech. To implant in a child that
instructive dislike of co~arseness and
grossness which shall be like the spear
Of Ithuriel to detect the weakness and
falsity of evil suggestions. sven though
masked under the hood Of truth-this
is a function which belongs irst OF
all to the parent. No other human be-
Ing can do II. The school can give us
many things. It a give us boys and
girls Of intelligence and physical
soundness. It can instruct our chill
dren In their duties as citizens. 1t
car even give them the surface SEEM
ings Of ethical instruction, but the
parent and the home alone give them
character. The finest department Of
ethics that a boy can graduate from
is that which opens when his own
door is reached. If he doesn't ind
ethics there and find them in his
early days he u pretty apt never to
get the genuine thing. And some fine
morning his parents wake up to see
their sons name figuring in some such
tragedies as have come to shock pub
lie knowledge lately-and will keep on
coming. doubtless, until the world
realizes more forcibly what a tremend-
GUS need there is OF fathers and motA-
ers nowadays.-Minneapolis Times.

The women folk Of the Methodist
church at Oxford recently set out to
carr money for certain church pur-
poses, and a meeting was held at
which each woman or girl recited the
method by which she had earned her
contribution, says the Boston Journal.
Some OF the recitals were funny
enough to convulse the audience, and
a few are epitomized as follows: Miss
Mary Dobbs started out to do some
%janitor work, but got tired and sub
contracted the job, though saving for
herself a margin Of profit. Mrs. NJ.
Collins said hat day her husband
was tearing around the house hunting
for his overshoes and said he would
give a half a dollar to know what had
become Of them. She told him sho
had sold them to the ragman, and
demanded the half. Mrs. Bay kalso-
mined her own house and saved the
dollar which an old colored nan de-
manded for the job. Miss Zulu Cole
engaged in a great variety of employ
ments. She got 5 cents for washing
Mrs. Middleton's dishes, 10 cents for
doing some sewing for her sister, 5
cents from her uncle for keeping her
mouth shut five minutes, 5 cents for
killing three cats. Is cents for sweep
Ing the sidewalk in front Of W stores,
