CONSUMPTION SURE TO COME
English Refuse to Enlist in Their Own
Army.

London, August PA serious slump in
recruiting has resurrected the CONSUMPTION
bogy. which persistently refuses TO down
for any length of time. 1t is understood
that the years recruiting about to be
issued shows the greatest decline of any
year during the past five years. which
showing promises to have serious infiu-
ence in preventing the release of reserv-
lists. The Saturday Review frankly says
that while the army proved effective in
South Africa, in respect to rank and file,
the fact remains that it is too small for
the requirements of the empire. adding:
we have ultimately to face this ques-
ton. Whether we like it or not. cOnscrip-
ton is certain to come, and the country
might as well get used to the idea as
quickly as il can"
Considering their experiences during
and since the war. perhaps it is hardly
strange that while the authorities are
lamenting the decline in recruiting. whole
regiments of time-expired men are walk
ing the streets rather than re-enlist in
their own army, Yet scores of former
British soldiers continue to besiege the
United States embassy and consulate,
owing TO the reports. denied by the Amer
lean officials that the United States en-
listed men who had served in the South
African army.for service in the Philip
nines

/ SUSIA|NS THEORY
Bullet Taken From Robert
Remington's Head
DIDN'T FIT IN REVOLVER
Autopsy Held by Brother and
Three Surgeons.

Willamsport. Pa. August 23.-The muir
der theory concerning the death OF Rob
ert Remington. who was supposed to
have committed suicide. being discarded
by Miss May Van Allen, is gaining more
credence than was first attached 10 it.
From an apparently reliaDie source it
was learned that bullet taken out Of
the brain of the dead man during the au-
topsy today did not mt the chambers of
the revolver which was found Dy the side
Of the supposed suicide in the apartment
in which he killed himself in the Newport
clubhouse Edward Remington. Lawyer
Mccormick and the three surgeons who
! performed the autopsy were in consulta-
ton in Mr.. McCormick's office again
this evening.
When Lawyer Mccormick was asked re
garding the late developments in the case
ne made the following statement, after
saying that he had been so instructed
/ by Edward Remington:
a post norton was held today on the
body of Robert Remington by Drs. Mutt,
Mccormick and Weddigen for the pur-
pose of determining the cause of death.
The result showed that death was caused
by a gunshot wound or pistol shot, and
the bullet penetrated the brain. There
were two other gunshot wounds. one at
the side and one in front, neither of which
We're sufficient to cause death
Did the surgeons remove the three
bullets from Robert Remington's head
during the autopsy"
IN he rapIv oua hull ar
was found. One of the others glanced
from his forehead and the second was
removed from the side of his head by a
physician before the body was shipped
from Newport"
DO you know if the revolver found
alongside Mr.. Remington has been brought
to Willamsport?"
Yes I do said Mr.. Mccormick. with
smile.
Has it?''
4 won't tell was the reply, but after
ward Mr.. Mccormick acknowledged that
the weapon was in Williamsport
Does the bullet taken from Mr. Rem
ington's head fit the chamber of the re-
volver?''
Il refuse to answer that" said Mr. Nc
Cormick decidedly.
The lawyer was then informed of the
rumor that was afioat about the city,
and he expressed his surprise that he had
not before heard of it.
1T is not strange, however" he said.
for have been all evening receiving the
report of the surgeons who performed
the autopsy. 1 do not want you to con-
srute my refusal to answer any question
into the belief that 1 believe that Mr..
Remington was murdered.
After some deliberation Mr.. Mccormick
continued: LAS far as the stories pub
lished in the New York papers to the
effect that Edward Remington contem-
plated proceeding legally against James
J. Van Allen for libel or anything else
know nothing about the matter, but
don't think it is so. l don't think there
is the slightest ground for such pro-
ceedure."

Rcas Cure for Nervousness.

Roses as a cure for many Of the lit
tie aches and pains of life, says The
Chicago American, are advocated by
those who believe our mental condi-
ton has much to do with our physi
cal pains. It has been discovered that
a rose will cure the headache. It's
perfume soothes the nerves and the
brain is rested by its color ReclinG
on a pillow Of roses if you can. II
you cannot do this, lie and look at a
few of the flowers. Tie up your head
with a rose perfume if you have it,
and, like the famous London beauty,
pull the flowers to piecs, sniff deeply
the rose, let your eyes look long at
the peculiar tint in it's depths, and
cure yourself. If you will give half an
hour to this cure, you will find your.
Eelf much refreshed in every way.
