The toy nieto1 heuon Ire daadIv

The toy pistol began Its deadly
work much earlier than usual this
year and several small boys In
different parts Of the country have
fallen as Its victims. The toy
pistol Is an instrument whose manu-
facture, sale and use should be pro-
hiblted. The law Is supposed to
keep ordinary levolvers, guns and
pistols out of the hands of children.
What criminal folly then to place
In a boys hands a weapon which
experience has proven to be quite
as deadly as other FIRE arms simply
because 1t Is miscalled a toy! Par
ents might as we'll give their chill
dren a real pistol to play with; then
If they shoot themselves they will
leave the world quicker and easier
route than the lad seized with lock
jaw can possibly find.

Catarrh Of the Stomach

When the stomach Is overloaded;
when food Is taken into 1t that fails
to digest, 1t decays and inhames the
mucous membrane, exposes the
nerves and causes the glands to
secrete mucin, instead of natural
juices of digestion. This Is called
catarrh of the stomach. For years

ach, caused by indigestion. Doc

St. Louis March 26.-Arguments in the Wabash injunction suit were concluded at 3 o'clock this afternoon and the case was taken under advisement by Judge Adams. He gave no intimation of how much time he might require to prepare his opinion, but the attorneys declared after the adjournment of court that they week or ten days.
 Attached to one of the affidavits made by President Ramsey of the Wabash end submitted to the court was stem oRraphio report of a meeting between President Ramsey and the grievance committee representing the two brother hoods. In his report, J. R. Courtnay Of the committee Is quoted as having said to President Ramsey that the men would be willing to arbitrate, but would not of the arbitrators.

Increased Anxiety for Safety of the
 Levees.
 vicksburg. Miss, March 2o.-showers, accompanied by a stiff northwest wind, have caused increased anxiety for the safety of the levees in this section
 A more rapid rise of the river Is also noted, the gauge here registering 6O.l tonight, a rise of 0.6 in twenty-four hours. Reports from Duvalls late this evening state that the main levee there Is in no immediate danger, but from the end of the loop to Chotard. a distance of four miles, the old protection levee is in bad shape with the water slopping over at several points. Back water from Steeles Bayou has attacked the levee in the rear. This. it is said. will have the effect of further weakening the base Inspector Dulaney has a large force of men sacking the top Of the line from Duvalls to Chotard, and strenuous efforts are being, made to withstand the rapidly rising flood.
 Several planters from Issaquena Coun- ty were in town today seeking boats and barges to carry their live stock out of the endangered territory.
 The private levee at Davis Island. south of here, was dynamited tonight in sew eral places. This was done with the ob- ject of easing the water through and preventing the great damage that would result from a sudden rush.
 At the crossing of the Big Black River and the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad, back water has spread all over the roadbed for several hundred yards north and south, and the tracks will be raised a foot or more, in the hope of keeping open communication to the South.
 Oficals of the Fifth Louisiana District Board report that there were no devel- opments on their side of the river today.

 ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI

into the houses that have not yet been made unfit for habitation.
 Developments today tend to show that the reports from Marion, Ark, last night were somewhat exaggerated. The levee was not dynamited today and no relieF boat has been sent to Marion.
 President Killough of the St. Francis Levee Board tonight stated to the As soc3ated Press that a train was sent to Marion yesterday by the Frisco with General Superintendent Davidson aboard and that the offer of the railroad com pany to carry passengers from Marion free of charge was accepted by only three persons. MT. Killough said furhther that the levee board was operating a feet of twelve slSiffs between Mound City and Marion and transporting persons without charge He most emphatfcally denied that any one at Marion was without food and said the only pressing need now was the rescue of the stock. Skif loads of hay and corn are daily being sent to Marion for the stock and tomorrow a barge will be put through the break at Trices Landing on which stock can be fioated out to Mound City.
