Unseen Perils on Sea and Land.


Unseen Perils on Sea and Land.
An axle breaks under car of the limited
express. Only one axle, yet it wrecks the
the train; a dozen persons, perhaps, killed
and injured. What made that axle break
and not some other? Was not the strain
the same for all? Yes, but that particular
axle had weak spot in it-may be from
the day it was cast. It is often SO with the
shafts Of steamships. The weak spots do
not show on the outside and are discovered
only when they have caused disaster. The
same with your body. What is the weak
spot? Where is it? You or your doctor
may know that possibly, for the body feels
and shows signs in ways that machines do
not. When you know it you should take
pains to protect it. When you do not know
it you should take the best possible care OF
your general health. Avoid excess of every
kind and preserve thefunctional balance and
regularity of your system by using Calcura
Solvent, meao medicine, discovered by DR..
David Kennedy of Kingston, N. Y, physi-
clan known to the people Of this country by
| his success as a surgeon and patholog1st
for the past thirty years. This remedy, his

MORE POSTAL CLERKS
LOCAL FORGE TO RECEIVE AD-

One of Them will Go in the Mailing Room and Two of Them Into the Distributing De-

Three new clerks will be installed in the Montgomery postoffice today. One ot these clerks will go in the mailing room and the other two viii be assigned to the distributing department.
 The business of the Montgomery post office has increased so materially with in tho past year that additional clerks were regarded as a necessity. Several week sago Postmaster (. w. Buckley se- cured authority for the appointment of two clerks from the civil service list on July 1. Recently E. M. Waters. superin- tendent of the salary and allowance di- vision. of the Postofice Department, was in Montgomery.
 After looking into the internal affairs of the local postofice Mir. Waters an nounced that three clerks were necessary instead of two The result of the visit to Montgomery of Mir. Waters Is that yes terdax morning authority was received for the appointment of a third clerk. This additional clerk will be put to work in the distributing department.
 It is also said that while in Montgom- cry Mr. Waters expressed himself in no uncertain way about the condition of the mail boxes at the postofice and about other .appurtenances. About the postof- Ice 1t is generally believed that Mir. Wa. ters as result of his inspection will di. rect that new boxes and other improve. ments be made at the postoffice.
 It was announced yesterday that Thom. as Miller, negro. had been appointed mailing clerk at the postoffice to All one of the new positions. The names of the other two additional clerks were not given out. The places pay $500 annually.
 By the increase Tn clerical force the postofiice will be enabled to distribute all mails arriving on delayed trains al night, thereby greatly improving the postoffice service.

TAFT MAY FAIL.
Mission to Rome May Not Prove
 Successful

Successful.
 New York. June so-A special to The World from Washington says: Governor Taft has been met most cordially by the Vatican authorities His first proposition, Involving the sale and purchase of the friars lands, Is accepted The only question pending under this head are some unimportant details of the method of vaiua. tion.
 The subsequent proposition of the United States that the friare shall leave the islands and that the moneys paid for their estates shall not be used for the propagation of then s sS iss in tsa sand IS shapy Vatican.
 Private and semi-officiai advices received here from Rome indicate that the committee is very strenuous on this point. Suggestions have been made that Secretary Root Issue ar clerical mind as reflected in Washington.
 The only ultimatum would be threat tt rnthlessly exile the friara regardless of th. the display of spectacular authority in sust easily pronounced tyrannous. and which would infame the numerous Roman Catholic voters
 An ecciesiastic here, who Is in a position to know the developments said today:
 Governor Taft approached the astute diplo' mats of the Vatican with lame-legged prop osition While he argues the dissociation oi church and State he advocates interference with the usual methods of Roman Catholic education. The Vatican now asks him what is to become of the numerous schools after the friars leave. and his answers always leave the inference that they will be turned over
 ''In other words, in a Roman Catholic com munity the schools are to be turned over to any politician who has influence enough tc secure an appointment ss teacher The irnme' diate exile of the friars makes this result in evitable.
 Governor Taft must devise some plan which looks to the continuance of the observatory and of the University of Manila with theii subsidiary schools, along the lines laid down by their founders. It Is plain this will pre- vent the exile of the frisrs. as there is nc body of teachers to take their places
 well if Governor Taft cannot surmount this difficulty and at the same time remove the friars from the field of politics. the Roman mission will fail"

CAPITAL CITY GUARDS.
Negro Company Gives Parade on
 Dexter Avenue.

The Capital City National Guards. g Eaegre military company, held drill ant dress parade on Dexter Avenue last night.
 Saul Hightower's brass band furnished the music for the occasion.
 The company was divided into two platoons, Robinson. the captain, taking charge of one. and R. B. Conner. first lieutenant. taking charge of the other.
 All of the commands were skilfully executed. and the dress parade was quite a military display.
 This drill was had as a rehearsal for the encampment of the company. which is to take place some time in August. It will probably last four days, and the camp grounds will be somewhere within the vicinity of Montgomery.
 The company is composed of about seventy-five men and the captain says he hopes to carry the total number into camp with him.
 After the drill delightful refreshments were served.
