The Wastes Of the Body

Every seven days the blood, muscles
aud bones of a man of average size lose
two pounds Of wornout tissue. This
waste cannot be replenished and the
health and strength kept up without
perfect digestion. When the stomach
and digestive organs fail to perform their
functions, the strength lets down, health
gives way, and disease sets up. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure enables the stomach and
digestive organs to digest and assimilate
all of the wholesome food that may be
eaten into the kind of blood that rebuilds
the tissues and protects the health and
strength of the mind and body. Kodo
cures indigestion, dyspepsia and al
stomach troubles. 1t is an ideal spring

THANKSGIVING.

The President on Saturday issued his
annual proclamation fixing Thursday,
November 26, as the day of thanks
giving. He says:
The season is at hand when, according
to the custom of our people, it falls upon
the President to appoint a day OF praise
and thanksgiving to God. During the
last year the Lord has dealt bountifully
with us, giving us peace at home and
abroad, and the chance for our citizens
to work for their welfare unhindered by
war, famine or plague. 1t behooves us
not only to rejoice greatly because of
what has been given us, but to accept it
with a solemn sense of responsibility,
realizing that under heaven it rests with
us ourselves to show that we are worthy
to use Alright what has thus been en-
trusted TO our care. In no other place.
and at no other time, has the experiment
of government of the people been tried
on so vast a scale as here in our own
country in the opening years of the
twentieth century Failure would not
only be q dreadful thing for US, but a
dreadful thing for all mankind, because
it would mean loss of hope for all who
believe in the power and the righteous
ness of liberty. Therefore, in thanking
God for the mercies extended to us in
the past, we beseech him that he may
not withhold them in the future, and
that our hearts may be reused to war
steadfastly for good and against all the
forces of evil, public and private. We
pray for strength and light, so that in
the coming years we may with cleanli-
ness, fearlessness and wisdom do our
allotted work on the earth in such man
ner as to show that we are not altogether
unworthy OF the blessings we have re-
ceived.

SENSATIONAL CHARGES.

Sensational allegations of misstate-
ment, classifying, and fraud in the or
ganization and fotation of the United
States shipbuilding Company, of at
tempts to mislead and deceive the in
vesting public by erroneous prospectus
statements, and of a deliberate plan to
wreck the company by Withholding the
earnings of the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany, are contained in the report of Re
ceiver James Smith, jr., of the United
States Shipbuilding Company, just made
public.
The report concludes with the recon-
mendation that suit be brought against
all persons who received stock of the
company without paying full value
therefor, including the promoters of the
consolidation, the vendors of the con-
stituent plants, and Charles NJ. Schwab,
to recover from them such amount as
is necessary to pay the debts of the COM
pany in full.
Receiver Smith also recommends the
sale of the Crescent ship yard plant in
New Jersey, and the Harlan q Holdings
worth plant at Wilmington, Del, sub
sidiary plans not now in partial opera
ton, to avoid further loss by deprecia-
ton. and the enforcement of a receiver
ship for the Bethlehem Steel Company,
to ensure the payment of dividends in
the Bethlehem stock held by the United
States Shipbuilding Company.
In the words of the report, the organ
ization of the company is characterized
as can artistic swindle," Receiver Smith
stating that the value of the plants,
their earnings, and working capital,
given in alleged thorough reports of ex-
pert accountants, vary so much from
actual figures ''as to impel the belief
that the figures were willfully mis-
stated :" that it is extremely doubtful
if such accountants reports were sub
mitled at the organization of the COM
pany that the organization was effected
by dummy" stockholders, directors,
anu OHCcIs, lndb sIdtchlCulS III thS
prospectus issued on June IA, 1902,
were incorrect; that for property worth
sl2, AL, SIC the shipbuilding COM
pany paid in stock and bonds s67.997,-
900; that ''the accommodating directors
OF the United States Shipbuilding Com
pany in acquiring these companies de-
liberately gave away many million dol
lars in the stock and bonds of their COM
pany" ('wholesale plumber" the re-
ceiver terms i0, "to a few persons, and
that, so far as the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany is concerned, its earnings have
been withheld in deliberate attempt
to wreck the United States Shipbuilding
Company"
The report deals fully with the name
of Charles NJ. Schwab, and the nature
of the Bethlehem transaction, says Mr..
Smith, is such as "to justify him (Mr.
Schwab) in saying that he did not sell
the Bethlehem Steel Company, but took
over the Uuited States Shipbuilding Com
pany, the directors of that company Civ
ing him $50, 600, 900 in stock and bonds
for taking it off their hands"

The Fire nt The Vatican.


Rome, Nov. Now that the excite
ment over the fire at the Vatican yester-
day has died down, to some extent,
clerical and lay circles are commenting
on one great fact which the fire devel-
oped. This is, that Italian State officials
entered the Vatican for the first time
since the downfall Of the temporal power
Of the Catholic Church. When the
Pope arrived at the scene of the fire he
saw that the Vatican workers had a
hopeless task to conquer the blaze. He
ordered that the fremen of Rome be
summoned. This was done, and the
6remen did valiant work. Word had
been sent to the Italian government
authorities, and they hurried at once to
the scene The mayor of Rome the pre-
feet. police officials, and the Minister OF
Justice hurried to the Vatican. They
gave orders directing the work of fight
ing the blaze, and participated person
ally in the fight to subdue the flames.
Many of the firemen risked their live to
save the invaluable material which was
in danger of destruction. The Pope
today visited the scene of the fire and
ordered the debris cleared away immed-
lately. An exact estimate of losses is
not abtainable, because of the indeter-
inmate value of the books, manuscripts
and engravings which were destroyed.

dashed it upon the floor. Mayor Jones,

ner, an employee in the local copper
mine, was standing at the mouth OF the
shaft awaiting the signal to hoist the
men who were setting the slow match
for blast, when an explosion in the
depths below him told that an accident
had taken place. Instantly Warner
slipped down the cable to the pumping
station, $50 feet below. He shouted
down the shaft, but heard nothing, and
again he shot down the hosting rope.
He found the bottom of the shaft filled
with smoke and gas, and, cropping about,
came upon the two men in the firing
gang. both with their legs broken and
their bodies terribly torn and bleeding.
One told his rescuer that seven shots
remained to be discharged. With the
prospect of instant death at hand, War

gave the signal to hoist. When the
bucket came down Warner packed his
companion into it and gave the signal

ELECTIONS will be held in Virginia
and q number Of other States tomorrow.
While in the Old Dominion another
democratic Legislature is assured, there
will be sharp contests, Notwithstanding,
in few of the counties of the Common
wealth. The democratic candidates foI
the State Senate and House Of Delegates
will have q virtual walk-over in Alexan-
dria, but it is hoped this fact will cause
no apathy in the party, but that every
member will take the few minutes time
necessary to cast his vote. Suffrage Is
not only a privilege which we enjoy, but
it is the duty OF all good citizens to ex-
ercise it. Under present conditions
elections will be shorn of the disagree
able features which have heretofore been
sadly in evidence and which often de-
TERED some people from voting. Every
thing will now becOnducted decently and
in order. Ward heelers, ticketholder, and
money and whisky distributors have seen
their day; they will be conspicuous
by their absence tomorrow and the seren-
ity around the poles will doubtless al
ford a marked contrast with scenes of
other DAYS.
