Little love is lost between Paderew-
ski, the famous pianist, and Foritz
Rosenthal, his professional rival, who
continues to amaze German audiences
by his wonderful command of the in
strument. Rosenthal is called "the de-
mon pianist" because of the astonishing
speed with which he plays. Paderewski
once heard of particularly brilliant
performance given by Rosenthal. He
smiled serenely and said: ooh, yes, but
any conservative pupil with a good
technique can do that" Of course this
remark was repeated to Rosenthal, who
some time later heard that a talented
amateur was playing in London. ooh,
that must be Paderewski," he said,
calmly.

The highland deer have become very
tame during the recent severe weather
in Scotland and have left the noun
tains in herds numbering hundreds.
Passengers by the railroad at Carrour,
in particular, have been surprised by
the unusual sight of hundreds of deer
crowded close to the railroad fences,
begging food with piteous eyes. In the
high-lying forests hand-feeding has
been resorted to, but in some districts,
particularly Lochcarron, the deer are
being shot in considerable numbers
where their depredations to the crops
have not been made good by the propri-
etors of the deer forests.

You have chronic catarrh, have you?
You have had it some time? And could
not find cure?
Well. there are thousands more like
you in this country. If you are liable to
catarrh it will begin to make itself felt
now. If you really want to get cured
this is the way to do it,
Get a bottle Of Perupa and take
tablespoonful between each meal and at
bed time. When you have continued this
for thirty days sit down and write a let
ter to Dr. Hartman. Columbus, o. Tell
him exactly your symptoms; how long
you have had catarrh; what effect the
medicine has had on you. He will answer
your letter promptly. telling you what
to do further. He will make no charge.
And if you will continue to write to the
doctor you are sure to get cured Some
cases take longer than others. Perhaps
the average length of time it takes to
cure a genuine case of catarrh is three
months. Some get cured much quicker

to the narrow strip of the right of way
across the isthmus, it has been decided
that sound military policy requires the
extension of. the protected zone to in
clude the entire territory of the re-
public of Panama. Consequently, no
Colombian troops will be allowed to
cross the frontier to Panama, or, if
they cross, they will be elected in due
time.
The point on the Gulf of Darien.
where the Colombian troops are re-
ported to have landed is believed to
be just about on the dividing line be-
tween the territory of Panama and
Colombia and it is probable the troops
will not cross the border without in
structions from Bogota, which, in
turn, will depend on the reports made
to the Colombian Government by Gen
eral Reyes and by the two Commits
sioners, Jiminez and Blanco who left
Washington two days ago on their re-
turn to Cartagena.
A current report is to the effect that
Colombian naval vessels are partici-
pating in the movement toward the
isthmus, but it is said at the Navy De-
partment that they are so insignificant
in power and size that the smallest
of the warships on the east side of the
isthmus could speedily terminate their
activity.

BUTLER, FREE AT LEAST
FOR A LITTLE WHILE
Missouri Supreme Court Releases St.
Louis Politician on Technically,
hl,t Other Charges Pending.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Dec. a.
The Supreme Court to-day reversed
the decision in the case of Colonel Ed
Butler of st. Louis, convicted in No
vember 1902, of bribery and sentenced
to three years in the penitentiary, and
the prisoner was discharged. Butler
was found guilty of having offered Dr.
Chapman, O member of the Board of
Health of the city of ST. Louis, S2500
to award a contract for the destruction
of the city's garbage to the st. Louis
Reduction Company, of which Butler
was a part owner.
Indictments charging bribery in the
St. Louis lighting bill case are still
pending against Butler.
The court holds that the Board Of
Health had no authority to let the gar
bage contract, but that this power be-
lcnged to the Board of Public Improve
ments. The Board of Health, having
no authority to award this contract,
the defendant could not bribe members
to Go something which they had no au-
thority to do.

TAKING EVIDENCE ON

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 9.@The
first trial of persons alleged to be in
volved in the massacre of Jews at
Kishinev will be concluded this week.
The court has already taken evidence
of 566 witnesses. One of the leading
counsel, III. Smakoff. handed his brief
to colleague because he was COM
PEELED to go to Moscow on official
business. This gave rise to a report
that the counsel for the defense had
thrown up their briefs and that the
prosecuting counsel were expected to
do likewise because of the alleged re-
fusal of the court to interrupt the
trial and undertake a fresh prelim-
mary investigation in order to dis
cover the real culprits.
Reports from Kishinev say that the
investigation is very thorough one.

any case. a section Of the Japanese
Diet is expected to attempt to impeach
