THE ACME OF CRUELTY
Recent Letter of Ambassador
White on the Atrocious Treat
ment of Jews in Roumania.

Berlin, Nov. pa private letter writ
ten by Ambassador White to Henry
Seligman of Frankfort-on-the- Main
regarding the treatment of Hebrews in
Roumania, appears in the Frankfurtcr
not intended for present publication, is
in part as follows:'
1.-THE Roumania atrocities are simply
world. I have just received the Rou-
manian Bulletin. No document equals
it in cruelty since the series sOf laws
with which Louis XIV prosecuted the
HuguenOts- But even these, which have
hitherto been regarded as the acme Of
cruelty are exceeded by those in the
Bulletin. l cannot believe that right
thinking Roumanians or the civilized
powers can allow this condition of
things to continue. It appears to be
open defiance of law, justice and com-
mon decency."
Mr.. White viii present his letters of
recall to Emperor William Thursday al
noon, and afterWard, with his wife, will
take luncheon with the emperor and
empress.
The ambassadors evenings are spent
in receiving farewell attentions Each
night this week he will dine with some
member of the diplomatic corps or caDi-
ret minister, except Thursday, when lie

From midnight Monday night until
3 o'clock yesterday morning a reign of
terror existed among the officers of the
police department and among the citi-
zens who were out at that time of night.
Hold-ups were reported at regular in
tervaIs of thirty minutes from in the
evening till midnight, and from that
time on the police refused to tell what
occurred.
Early in the evening reports of hold
ups and burglaries began to pour into
police headquarters, and for a time the
details of the highwaymen's reign were
given out for publication. but after
they became so numerous, officers were
instructed by the chief of police to
withhold any information that might
lead to the public's knowing of the
crimes that were committed Seven
hOld-ups and several burglaries were
known to have been reported TO head
quarters Monday night, and many were
withheld from publicity.
Among the robberies which were not
reported Monday night was that OF
Wesley Derr, a brother-in-law of
sergeant of police, who was held up
and robbed of his pocket money while

on his way home from the city. He
left the city shortly after IL o'clock
Monday night and started to his home
at Seventh South and Seventh East
streets. In going to the place. he was
compelled to pass a vacant lot at the
corner, and while in the act of doing
so, two men accosted him and de-
manded his money. He declared that
he had no money, and tried to prove
his statement, but an Investigation by
the robbers revealed the fact that he
had 81 or IS. which they at once pro-
ceeded to take unto themselves.
Last night a robbery was also re-
ported to the officers which was not
noticed in the strenuous course of
events One man, whose name the
police refused to divulge. was held up
and robbed at First and Brigham
streets and relieved of between $40 and
$50. Officers admit that there is no
hope Of the recovery of the money.
The chief of police admits that ne has
not heard of the numerous robberies,
and declares that he is capable of per-
forming the duties of his office. but
others admit that as long as he is re-
tanned the reign of terror will con-
tinue.

PUTTING 1T STRONG
But Doesn't Ii Look Reasonable

But Doesn't Tt Look Reasonable?
This may read as though we were
putting it a little strong, because it is
generally thought by the majority of
people that Dyspepsia in its chronic
form is incurable or practically so. But
We have long since shown that Dys-
pepsia is DURABLE. nor is it such a
difficult matter as at first appears
The trouble with Dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting, starving
themselves. or going TO opposite ex-
IRENE or else deluging the already
over burdened stomach with "bitters,"
after dinner pills." etc, which invar-
iably increase the difficulty, even if in
some cases they do give a slight tenn
porary relief Such treatment of the
stomach simply makes matters worse.
What the stomach wants is a rest
Now, how can the stomach become
rested. reeuperated and at the same
time the body nourished and sus-
tanned?
This is a great secret and this is
also the secret of the uniform success
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets This
is q comparatively new remedy, but
its success and popularity leave no
doubt as to its merit.
The Tablets will digest the food any
way, regardless of condition of stom-
ach.
The sufferer from Dyspepsia, ac-
cording to directions, is TO eat an
abundance of good wholesome food and
use the tablets before and after each
meal, and the result viii be that the
food win be digested no matter how
bad your Dyspepsia may be, because.
as before stated, the tablets will digest
the food even if the stomach is wholly
inactive. To illustrate our meaning
plainly, if you take 1900 grains of
meat, eggs or ordinary food and place
il in a temperature of 80 degrees. and
put with it one of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs
almost as perfectly as if the meat was
enclosed within the stomach.
The stomach may be ever so weak,
yet these tablets viii perform the
work Of digestion and the body and
brain will be properly nOurished and
at the same time a radical, lasting
cure of Dyspepsia will be made, be-
cause the much abused stomach will
be given, to some extent, d much need
ed rest. Your druggist viii tell you
that of all the many remedies adver-
tised TO cure Dyspepsia none of them
have given so complete and general
satisfaction as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, and not least in Importance in
these hard times is the fact that they
are also. the cheapest and give the
most good for the least money.

Nellie Gore.

Cleveland, o., Nov. ga letter writ
ten by Mrs. Nellie Gore from Paris
under date of Nov. z, has just been
received here by Mrs J. D. Slater, the
aunt OF Mrs Gore. The communica-
ton contained no mention of De

ing, practiced her music for two
hours, and then took a long walk and
returned to her work. She was seldom

had spent but one evening away from
home during the past month. Then
she had gone to the opera in company
with a New York piano man.
Mrs. Slater said that De Rydzewski
was infatuated with her niece, but she
was certain that he had never pro
posed marriage. She said Mrs. Gore
had written that she feared him. Mrs
Slater further said that Mrs. Gore was
the. possessor OF about $4,000 in Mex
lean money and that Mr.. and Mrs.
Gore were the founders of the Amer
lean colony in Mexico City.

DISPATCH FROM osGooD.
Chairman Seems to Be Able to Con-
troll the Situation.

Denver, Colo. Nov 25.-The following
dispatch was received by the Times to-
day from John c. Osgood, chairman of
the board of directors of the Colorado
Fuel & Iron company:
New York, Nov. 81 appreciate the
interest my Colorado friends take in
the coming election. The split in the
-Hawley-Harr party does
not change my position. 1 think the
best interests of the stockholders re-
quire that while the management
should be fair and friendly to all rail-
road interests, the control OF the prop
erty should not be dominated by any
one road or group of roads. Responses
received 10 my request for proxies in
dictate that a great many independent
stockholders agree with me. The fact
that the opposition is divided is I'M
dOubtedly favorable to the interests of
the stockholders whom represent.

PREFACE.

PREFACE.
This little novelette, is entitled DUTY

convey an obvious moral 10 all young
men who are members of the national
guard.
Chapter I.
The speaker was Sidney Reeves.
sometimes known as "AdOlph." Sid
ney was pacing UP and down the floor
of his room on the east side. He was
alone. That was the trouble. He had
been pacing for some time. He was
eligible to the 2.20 class. The time was
evening of Tuesday. A short distance
away he could hear the rattle of the
dinner dishes. as they were being
I washed. while from outside came the
clang. clang of an electric car-the first
that had passed for forty-five minutes.

Then he continued to pace
Suddenly he stopped before a mirror.
Gazing pensively upon the reflection he
began a solilOquy.

DUTY BEFORE PLEASURE.
A Tragedy of the National Guard.


In quick succession came the vary
ing orders, and soon the tones of the
first sergeant could be heard rapidly
calling the roll.
'.Herei HereI" came the quick, short
replies one after the other. until the
sergeant reached one name, the name
! of our hero;
Sidney Reevesi''
There was no reply.
Reeves" repeated the officer.
| A CHASTITY silence.
A council was held and a plan of ac-
/, ton decided upon.
Chapter ".
Hist"
It was the voice of Corporal Reiser.
| That was the first sound which had
| broken in upon the steady tread, tread
of marching feet as a squad of men
marched steadily under the trees. Their
! faces bore a look of determination. The
lannon's mouth had no terrors for
them. They were ready to follow their
| corporal unto death.
Hist" said Corporal Reiser.
And they histed.
/ The wind blew chilly through the
/ barren limbs of the massive trees and
whistled about their upturned coat col
| lars
But the valiant band turned not back.
| Not they,
D
! They stopped in front of a domicile.
| From within peeped a narrow ray of
light But the curtain was Opaque.
/ Yes, thank heaven, the curtain was
opaque, and they saw nothing.
Ting-a-ling- a-hngi
What was that?" asked two startled
voices within the house of each other.
1t was an unfamiliar ring.
Ting-a-ling-
Il will go to the door, said our he
rome.
'And viii guard you against posi-
| bic harm" quoth our hero valiantly.
He is a bold man, but little did ne
1 know what he was about to encounter.
Why dwell upon the narrowing &c
tails of what followed? Our heroine
pleaded to have our hero remain with
/ her. but in vain. The strong arm of
military authority was too much for
either of them-or both.
II go, but I will return later" he
finally announced.
And he went.
Chapter '.
This chapter must be short The rea-
son is that the drill was long-longer
] than usueal. Our hero received what IS
generally called an ovation" when he
entered the armory. A strictly accurate
| account like this must not omit the
| fact that he seemed slightly embar-
assed
AS we We're saying, the drill was
| long. 1t seemed twenty times as long
for our hero. He knew that our he
| roine was waiting.
Had he not said, Il go, but I will re-
| turn later?''
! He had. and she trusted him. Could
| he prove faithless?
/ But the drill kept on.
/ When it was all over a stalwart form
was seen to hasten out of the armory.
/ At the first street light which happened
! to be in working order he pulled out his
watch and eagerly scanned the dial.
Then he clutched at his heart and
/ reeled.
"Too latei Too Iate!" he muttered
! hoarsely.

lures of the contemplation would lie in the
fact that no great expenditure of money
would be needed to give the appearance of
the city an expression of taste and refine
ment
The societies for improving the standard
of taste in municipal improvements work in
conjunction with the city authorities. Their
most important function is to advise with
those officers upon the methods of adorn-
ment upon the one hand and the means for
the repression of ugliness upon the other.
They mold public opinion and give their
time to those things to which the money
maker is too busy to give heed.
In 1894, when the Cincinnati Art Society
was formed that city was very little larger
than Kansas City is now. There the cham
Der of commerce was the nuclues for the
formation of the organization whose pur-
pose was to develop the esthetic side of
Cincinnati. The Commercial Club of KAN
sas City might perform a like service. 1t
has already manifested its interest in such
movement in it's advocacy Of the ordi-
nance to prevent the smoke nuisance. The
women's auxiliary of the Manufacturers
Association has displayed a similarly COM
school children for the cultivation of back
yard gardens and lawns. Such enterprises
could be more effectively prosecuted by a
central organization whose only activity
would lie in those directions. The scope Of
the society would embrace, of course, the
decoration of the public buildings, the or
namentation of parks the cleanliness of
streets. the removal of unsight1y bIlboards,
the regulation of advertising and street
signs and the designing of what are termed
street fixtures-public fountains, lamp posts

and the Ike. Z could cooperate Nth the
park board in the selection of monuments
and sculptural adornments.
A specific instance of a worthy object of
such a society's endeavor in Kansas City
Is the city hall. An organization that val
ued the appearance of things would urge
the city council to clean the dingy walls
of building that might be imposing. 1t
might not be able to secure mural and cell
/ ing decoration, but 1t could certainly get
rid of dust and smoke demonstrations and the
stains of tobacco juice.
AS Mr.. Albert Kelsey pointed out in his
lecture on 1.-The City of the Future" deliv-
cred at the instance of the trustees of the
Boston public library, the education Of
public opinion needed is not that of the So
called uncultured classes, whose poverty of
home environment makes them all the more
interested in having public streets and
squares made and kept beautiful"
