powder was cure for rheumatism
The woman drank two hot whiskeys
at the Silver Bow brewery saloon and
shortly after this Mrs. Proulx became
unconscious when Mrs. Grady took
her earrings and rings and then left

ing in the roadway. Mrs. Grady says

PRESIDENT WANTS MEN OF Ac.
TIoN TO RUN THINGS.
WILL STAND BY cROzIER
May Cause a Row With the Senate
But the Nomination Will Not
Be Withdrawn.

Chicago April 8.-A special from
Washington to the Record Herald
says: President Roosevelt may soon
find himself in serious row with the
senate over the Crozier nomination.
Ihe president shows a disposition to
fight, and is likely to have heap of
trouble on his hands before he secures
the confirmation OF Captain Crozier to
be brigadier-general and chief Of
ordnance.
Many senators regret the presidents
determination to stand by his nomi-
nee, and think it would be wiser for
him not to seek contest with the
senate. If Captain Crozier is defeated
senators will still feel angry because
the president tried to crowd through
the nomination. If by any chance the
nomination is confirmed those sena-
tors who voted in committee to reject
the nomination and who will vote the
same way in the senate will feel still
more angry If the nomination were
withdrawn the irritation would quick
ly cool. But the president does not
intend to do so He will stick by his
choice.
The reason why the president de-
s.res to place young and progressive
officer at the head of the ordnance bu-
rean is because of the experience he
o6 nhor1 % ryoc of he
Riders. Colonel Roosevelt found that
his men were equipped with Springfield
carbines, burning black powder an
equipment as archaic, as he expressed
1t, as the man-at-arms with blunder-
buss. There were Krag- -Jorgensen car
lines in government armOries, but
they were so enmeshed with red tape
that it would have required nothing
less than modern Alexander to unite
the Gordian knot, and Colonel Roose-
velt, with all OF his energy and vitality,
was unable to get those prscious car
bines out of store. That experience
Colonel Roosevelt with hav-
ing old men at the head of important
bureaus, where initiative was more
than red tape and tradition.
1t has been the plan heretofore,
when the head of a staff corps retires,
to make the senior colonel the new
chief, with the result that one elder
ly man saturated in routine has sue
ceeded another elderly man STEPPED
in departmental details. The presi-
dent wanted change in the system,
and for that reason he ignored the
men who claimed the place by right of
seniority and made his selection from
the younger officers who appeared to
possess the qualifications that he
deemed requisite. He had under con-
sideration the names of several Of
these younger men and finally select
ed Captain Crozier as being in all re-
sEects the bsst man Some of the old
er senators are opposed to the young
man" regime. They think proper re-
spect is not paid to their gray hairs,
and they are quite willing to remind
The president of the necessity of re-
specting them.
In other words, the csmpaign for
the introduction of the merit system
N the army in the place of seniority
system is being fought all along the
,ne.

Stone Cutters Strike.

The stone cutters at work on the new Baptist Church building, went out on a strike this morning This building. which is being constructed of stone .is one of the handsomest in the State and the walls are nearly up. It seems. from the best information that can be gathered. that the bylaws of the Stone Cutters Union authorized them to organize union when as many as seven men are at work on a lob. There are more than seven men at work on the building and day or so ago they got together and organized a Stone Cutters Union Tire foreman of the stone cutters is R. L. Lawrence He was invited to become member of the union and the suppostion is that he declined, hence the strike The contrac- tor for the building is busy today trying to get matters adjusted and 1t is thought that the matter will be amicably settled.
 In the meantime all work on the hand some structure is suspended until the matter between the foreman and the stone cutters can be adjusted.
