iean School Teachers.
[By Associated Press.l

Manila, p. l., Aug. 13.--An investi-
cation made by the constabulary to
clear up the facts in the killing of a
Cebu coaching party Of four school
shows that the party was
ambushed twelve miles from Cebu.
Two teachers were shot and killed at
the first volley; a third. who ran, was
shot in the back, and the fourth, who
was captured, was shot in the chest
while he was praying for mercy.
1t is suspected that the fourth man
was buried alive, as his wound was
slight and probably would not have
caused death. Dogs dug up two Of
the bodies and devoured the flesh
It Is believed sufficient evidence has
been secured to convict ali the par
ticipants in the crime

ANCIENT
TORTURE
How it has Been Revived
in Modern Times.

An ancient method of poisoning
criminals was TO force them TO swal-
low quantities Of bulls blood. Bulls
blood is really no poison at all. Yet
the prisoner usually died In agony
caused by the coagulatlon or harden
ing OF the bulls blood In the stom-
ach. The pressure Of this solid mass
on the vital organs almost always re.
suited fatally.
That's like Indigestion. IL your
food doesn't digest 1t remains In q
hard lump in the stomach. Gases
form which crowd other organs. Many
cases OF supposed heart disease are
due TO Indigestion.
This trouble is removed by the use
Of such q preparation as Kodol Dys-
pepsia Cure, wdich gives the stomach
perfect rest by digesting what you cas-
without the stomach's aid. The food
builds up the body. The rest restores
the stomach to health. You don't
have to diet.
"Durlng the last few years my stom-
ach was In such condition that
couldn't retain the food ! ate, " writes
Henry Williams of Boonville, Mo.
1.-Two months ago commenced taking
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. A few bottles
have cured me entirely can now eat

Chronicle says it was used at the cor
onations OF English sovereigns 300
years before the "stOne OF destiny"
was brought from Scone to Westmln-
ster by Edward |.
If this be true. the use of this Bible
for the li,r,.OSe dates back to the year
1000 1t is Il uuarto of pit leaves. con-
tanning the four gospels. and seems
from the style of the writing and illu-
limitations. which are very beautiful.
to have been made about the end of
the ninth century.

the fire ut Ashburnham House in 1871.
of which it bears evidence in its
crumpled leaves and singed margins.
There is some evidence that the son OF

and gave it to the church of Dover.
