Feed pale girls on SCOTS

We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
SCOTS Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,

CRISIS IN VENEZUELA
The Castro Government Said
to Be in Danger of
Overthrow.
Revolutionists Growing Stronger
and Castr0's Power Weaker
Every Day.
Advices at Washington Indicate
a Serious Situation at
Caracas.

Washington, June 25.-The belief
that crisis exists in Venezuela was
given fresh impetus yesterday by the
receipt of a cablegram from United
States Minister Bowen. The text of
the disatch was not made public, but
the message is said to show that the
climax has come in the revolutionary
movement against President Castro.
Preparations to meet any emergency
have been made by the navy depart
ment, and the warships Cincinnati and
Topeka are now at La Guayra, while
the gunboat Cincinnati is on the way
to San Juan, Porto Rico. The DEPART
ments intention is to have the Mariet-
ia proceed thence to Colon and relieve
the Machias, but she will lie at San
Juan until it is apparent that her serv-
ices will not be needed to re-enforce
the Cincinnati and Topeka in protect
ing American loves and property in
Venezuela.
No report, it is stated, has yet come
from the commanders Of the two war
ships at La Guayra. The officers are to
use their own discretion in their course
of action in Venezuelan waters, and it
is thought that the absence of report
means only the absence of any impor-
tant change in the situation as far as
they can view it.
A report of an important develop
ment in Venezuela, which, If borne out,
- n Oh, 1e~n
in the status of affairs there, has been
received here from an unofficial source
in the republic. 1t is stated that Ven
ezuela has adjusted her relations with
Colombia so as to allow Of the complete
Withdrawal of the governments force
of about 5000 men from the Colombian
border, and that this army now can be
rushed to the relief of President Castro
at Caracas, who is represented in the
advices reaching Washington as being
sorely beset by the revolutionists under
Gen. Matos Late mail advices received
here say that Gen. Matos has divided
his forces and is now approaching Car
acas from the rear and from both es5.
and west.
Senior Pulido, the Venezuelan charge
daffaires, received in his official mail
Monday a letter from the secretary OF
state of Venezuela denying the repor.s
of a Colombian invasion and stating
the conditions along the border We're
peaceful. Color is given to the report
of an amicable settlement of relations
with Colombia by the press reports OF
the opening of Venezuelan port away
up the Orinoco near the Colomb an
border lines, which will enable the Col
ombans to utilize the great river to
ship their produce out into the Atlantic
"a condition which has not prevailed
for many months.

RATHHoNE WANTS INQUIRY.
Repeats Statement That He Was Not
Given a Fair Trial.

Washington, June 25.-Major Estes
G. Rathbone, the former director gem
eral of posts of Cuba, arrived in Wash
ington yesterday from New York for
the purpose of consulting his friends
as to what course to pursue in his
effort to have a thorough inveSiga-
ton of the charges which resulted IN
his conviction by the Havana court
of wrongdoing in connection with the
administration of postal affairs in the
island. He Teiterates his former state
ments that he did not have a fair trial
by the Cuban courts and that he is
determined to have all his acts thor
oughly inquired into, If this be possible.
He declares that he will make an earn
est effort to have this done by con-
gressional committee and hopes that
there may yet be time during the pres
ent session to have such an inquiry in
itiated. He spent several hours today
discussing the case with Senator Han
ma, thru whose fundamentally he was
released on bond

Ministers Are Provoked.

Sioux City, June 24.-The Sioux City
ministers are at outs with the Sioux
City Commercial Club, and as a result
the International Sunday School Asso
citation convention will not be held in
Sioux City. The trouble Is due to the
alleged refusal of the Commercial Club
to give the desired support to the
project, which had already gone con-
siderable way with every prospect OF
success. The club members say the
trouble is due to a misunderstanding,
but nevertheless relations are strained.
The ministers are also after the city
in connection with the
gambling question. They make the
claim that, notwithstanding the admin
istration promised that gambling would
not be allowed, that games are now in
progress in several parts of the city. a
secret meeting at which this matter
was discussed was held yesterday and
nav result in sensational move on the
part Of the ministers.

GUN BEATS ARMOR.
NAV, York SIM


Recent tests of guns and armor plate
in England and in Germany have pro-
duced results highly disturbing to the
naval authorities there, and of very
great interest to our ordnance experts,
for they show that under certain cir
cumstances guns and projectiles have
beaten armor, more completely than
ever before So far we have details of
experiments in England only, thru the
London Engineer.
The tests We're made at Eskmeals,
the rifles used being 6-inch and 7.5
inch Vickers naval guns, and the arrno1
being Krupp 6-inch and 12-inch plates
made by Vickers. The Vickers armor-
piercing shell and shot were used,
with the cap recently devised by Mr.
e. NJ. Johnson, civilian student of
ordance and ballistics.
The result was the complete victory
of the projectiles over both plates.
Heretofore it has been held roughly
chat a shot Of about the same calibre
as the thickness of the arnor was
needed to pierce it; but the Eskmeals
tests showed that a 6-inch proiectile
could be shot thru 12-inch plate.
Five shots We're fired against that
plate, four of them from the 6-inch
gun, and one from the 7.5-inch gun.
The latter was an explosive shell. with
the cap. 1t was buried deep into the
plate, the core being left in the hole
where in actual warfare its explosion
would have little further resistance
from the armor Two 6-inch proiec-
tiles, capped, penetrated the armor
completely, the base of one shot being
six inches beyond the back of the
plate; the other did not penetrate so
deeply into the backing. The plate
beat the uncapped proiectile.
In three rounds against the 6-inch
plate the uncapped 6-inch projectile
failed to crack the armor, but the
capped shot of that calibre went com
pletely thru, pieces of the proiectile
being found in the rear of the target.
The capped explosive shell, of 7.5-inch
calbre, passed completely thru, and its
point, weighing ninety two pounds,
was found twenty feet back of the
plate, buried in the sand.
The British critics display anxiety
as to the value of the armor on British
ships particularly, but these gun trials
would seem properly a cause for anxi-
ETY. in every existing navy.

NEW EXECUTIVE OFFICE
President Will No Longer Have
His Office in the White
House.
A Private Residence Nearby Will
Be Used for Executive
Headquarters.
Plan Will Give More Room for
the Presidents Domestic
Requirements.

Washington, June 25.-Tuesday will
last on which the white house will be
used by the president as his official
headquarters. 1t was cabinet day, and
there was the usual routine about the
stately edifice until the president left
for the station in the afternoon In
order to go to Cambridge to attend
the commencement at Harvard. When
he departed from the white house work
was actively pressed in removing the
Office files and furniture to private
residence, % Lafayette Square, just
opposite the white house.
The president has changed his plans,
and instead of visiting his family at
oyster Bay after the exercises at Har-
ward, he will return to Washington,
arriving here probably on Friday. He
will go to the new executive mansion.
and occupy it as a residence, as well
as an office, until after the adjourn
ment of congress. Then the presiden!
will enter upon a brief vacation. He
goes to Pittsburg on Thursday, July 3,
to deliver an grafton on the next day.
If congress has not adjourned he Will
return, and remain here until it does.
He will then go to Oyster Bay, ana
remain with his family until the middle
of August, when he will go into New
England to make speeches in Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont. The
president Will make two extensive tours
during the fall, the first ending at De-
troit and the second at San Antonio.
Texas. Thus the president will be alb
sent from Washington while extensive
repairs are being made TO the white
house.
The suggestion to enlarge or remodel
the white house to provide sufficient
space fer the presidents official and
domestic requirements excited so much
opposition that the old plans have been
abandoned and congress at this session
temporarily compromised by author
iZing the necessary remodeling of the
interior of the ancient structure by
the removal of the offices, etc., to make
it habitable as the residence of the
president. and providing for the cree
ton upon adjacent ground of an office
building, where the president will dis
charge his official duties except those
of entertaining at state dinners and
formal receptions. These functions
will probably continue at the white
house. The new structure will be ready
for occupancy next fall.
No. % Lafayette square, "the Little
White House" as it will now be called,

welt officially changed to white house"

claturc. 1t stands on the west side of

Members of Indiana Committee Con.
cIude Work at Michigan City.

Michigan City, June 25.-The special
committee of labor representatives and
manufacturers from over the state APP

tigation at the penitentiary in this city,
and left this evening for Jetfersonville
to investigate the situation at the re-
formatory. None of the members has
expressed himself on the subject so far,
so that whatever recommendations may
be made have not yet been considered.
The problem is one which will require
solution by the next legislature. The
committee will visit prisons of other
states and will ultimately make recon-
mendations to the governor.
