Carelessness is responsible for
many a railroad wreck and the same
causes are making human wrecks of
sufferers from throat and lung trou-

worst cases can be cured, and hope
less resignation is no longer neces-

Steel trusts may find it rough sledg-

go to pieces, but the Standard Oil,
the daddy of them all, continues to
give a correct and striking imitation
OF T%ennyson's brook. just to show
the other fellows how easy the thing
is, it has added another ten millions
to it's yearly income by arbitrarily
advancing the price of refined kero-
sene a cent a gallon. AS though this
were not enough, it has added another
ten millions by a like advance in the
price of parafin candles. Within
three years the wholesale price OF
such candles has been more than
doubled, while coal oil has been raised
five cents.

CONSIDERATION.
AMERICAN REPLY UNKNOWN

4N
Washington, Nov. st has been
learned in official circles that the
United States of Colombia has lodged
q protest with the state department
against the action of the United States
in connection with the events which
have occurred on the Isthmus Of
Panama. The terms Of the protest
could not be ascertained. but it is
known that a strong objection is made
to the attitude of the United States in
general and against interpretations
made by this government of the treaty
of 1916 between the United States of
America and the United States of
Colombia. The state department has
the protest under serious considera-
ton, but the nature of it's reply, If any,
or the time it will be made is not
known. Other than admitting that
such a document had beeen filed in the
state department the officials there
will say nothing about the matter.
Word has reached the navy depart
ment of the arrival of the United
States cruiser Boston at Panama.
