track, so he decided to enter the en-
ploy of the company, and the duties
of switchlight tender at Bowman re-
quired so little time and developed so
small responsibility that he applied

DIR. Lorenz a Benefactor.

New York World: Professional
censors of DR.. Lorenz. recently in
noisy evidence, will receive their quiz
etus in the public mind through the
calmly dispassionate review of the
Vienna surgeons American visit and
results published by DR.. Newton NJ.
Shaffer in the current Charities.
DIR. Shaffer is professor of ortho-
paedic surgery at Cornell university.
He stood next to DR.. Lorenz during
the visit of the foreign practitioner.
His conclusion from all the facts is
that by the Lorenz visitation 1.-The
poor child suffering from disease and
deformity has been lastingly bene-
fited-and the cause of humanity has
been advanced"
The method used by the Austrian
surgeon for cases of congenital dis
location is not new. But having OPP
Grated in over 1000 cases, DIR. Lorenz
has acquired an admirable technique.
Il regard him as a master" says DIR.
Shaffer. The foreigners operations
in America proved in the main sue
cessful. The Armour case is particu-
lariZed.

administration and wall Street.

There is n chance that now the Wall
street pirates are disagreeing and GO
ing to law about the disposal OF the
swag the public may have their eyes
opened about the way they have been
swindled. The history of the Organi
zation of the shipbuilding trust as told
under oath by one of the participants
is a picture doubtless of the peculiar
transactions that have attended the or
ganiZatiOn of numerous other trusts.
The attempt of the administrator
through Secretary Shaw to bolster up
Wall street in its depredations on the
honest investor by pouring millions of
the public money into the favored
banks. which are VIGOROUSLY allied
with Wall street pirates. is beyond he
lief. If President Roosevelt and his
cabinet did not understand the condi-
lions in the stock market. with all their
sources of knowledge, they are totally
unfit to manage the affairs of the
greatest government on earth. If they
or Secretary Shaw were appraised of
the pitilessly beset plight of the trust
makers and responded to their cry for
help they must answer for the unpar-
donable crime to the victims and to the
nation

Maintaining the waterway.

The most interesting and far-reach
ing result of the state election in New
York is shown in the majority vote
cast in favor of expanding $101,000
600 for the purpose of charging and
deepening the Erie canal. That be-
speaks the generous and undaunted
spirit of the people of the Empire
state. The building of the Erie canal
was a great undertaking at the out
start; the proposition to so. deepen it
as TO make it practically a ship canal
and perpetual bid for the vast traffic
of the great lakes is an uneXampled
state enterprise. That it has been au-
thOrized by popular vote, notwith-
standing the staggering weight of eX-
penditure involved. furnishes undenia-
bic proof of intelligent and pushing
citizenship.
If one state can eXpend $100,O00,000
on a single canal, there should be no
begrudging an appropriation of $15.-
100000 to preserve so mighty a water
way as the Mississippi river.

Golfers Weekly of a recent date
discusses Joseph w. Folks method of
prosecuting crimes against the state.
1t says the method is very simple,
very natural''-''Circuit Attorney Folk
defends the state" The example of
Mr.. Folk is worthy of study and adop-
ton by other prosecuting attorneys.
Golfers Weekly says: 1t is we'll
known principal of our penal code
that the purpose of punishment by
the state is not vengeance, but the
restraint of others from like crimes.
Few prosecutors take this view. They
attack the defense, 'denOunce' the
jurors. fight his lawyers. and there
is where they weaken their cases.
For the defense also has the personal
appeal, and theirs is stronger; it is
for the under dog the poor fellow
at the bar Unimpassioned and i'm
personal. Mr.. Folk moves slowly
through a trial. speaking softly, lis
tening attentively to the other side.

dearest market. Cause. tariff on goods,
but none on labor.
The Dingley tariff has been Il boon
to the trusts. How has it treated you?
The cost of living is 81 per cent high
er than in 1897, when the Dingley bill
was passed. Are your wages 81 per
cent higher?

WE EXCHANGE
RECORDS

Bring us your old disc records that
you have grown tired of (either CO.
lumbia or Victor), and we will eX-
change them for the new Improved
Columbia Disc Records. We will al
low you 30 cents for your 10-inch
record and other sizes in proportion.
The new Improved Columbia Records
are of elegant workmanship and are
a decided advancement in the art of
record making. They have a full,
sweet tone, and owing to the manner
in which they are made they have
less scratching tone; the needle seems
to run smoother on the record. We
also wish to introduce to your notice
the new Grand Opera Sound Box,
which is designed to obviate the
scratch ofsthe needle and at'the same
time retain the full volume of tone.
We will exchange the new Grand
Opera Sound Box for any of the old
style Columbia sound boxes now on
the market. Call at our warerooms
and get our plan of exchange. We
carry the largest line of records in
the city.

LIVE STOCK AT WORLDS FAIR.
A Quarter of Million Dollars tO Be Given In Premiums In a COm-
 prehensive List.

St. Louis, July 15.--Director of Ex- hibts Skiff has authorized the publi- cation and distribution of the prize list for live stock. The list provides for the distribution of S25O,000 in premiums for select speciments of live stock exhibited at the exposi- tion. The details of the list, which were carefully prepared by Mir. F. D. Coburn, chief of the department of live stock, have been approved by President Francis and Mr. Skiff. Tho premiums offered, as well as the clas- sification of the premiums, separat- ing the fund appropriately according to the various divisions of live stock, will constitute the greatest induce ment for representative exhibit ever offered to the live stock interests of the world. Not only is this case, but the total amount of the premiums offered at St. Louis is greater than the combined offerings heretofore made by all previous expositions.
 At Chicago, $142 ,500 was distribut- ed in premiums for live stock. Much i9'"'iSia aS'oH ieSuiteu III tHt dWdIu- ing of premiums there, as result of what was considered an imperfect classification of the prize list. Besides having almost double the amount awarded at Chicago, the classification of the St. Louis prize list has been perfected by Chief Coburn. with the aid of the principal live stock spe- cialists of the world. The list as pre- parod for publication and approved by Mir. Skiff forms a voluminous body of manuscript. including IF legal cap pages of typewriter matter.

Two Illicit Stills Destroyed.

Deputy United States marshals captured two illicit dstillories and a 1G0-sallon copper outfit near Stewart postoffice in Sevier county last week These stills were located near the Ar kansas and Indian Territory line, and when officers from Arkansas became too active the moonshiners have here tofore evaded arrest by crossing into the Territory. The owners, Julius Bobo and Green Brennan, were sur prised while asleep in their cabin few miles from their stills. The off cers took the two prisoners to Texar- kama. where Commissioner Summer vile bound them over to await the action of the federal grand jury The prisoners were then taken to Fort Smith. where they are now being held for safe-keeping.

Counterfeiters Captured.

J. c. Adams, coal miner of Bo nanze. his wife and son. were arrest ed last week on the charge of mak- ing counterfeit $5. s10 and s20 gold pieces. Officers found in the Adams barn outfits for making coins of the above denominations, and a can con taining $500 in counterfeit money. The coins are manufactured of lead with heavy gold plating. and are calculated to deceive almost anyone during the ordinary couse of busi ness The officers took the coin and succeeded in passing number in sa- looms and stores, in order to test their value as circulators. When they in formed those who had accepted them that they were counterfeit a close examination of them had to be made before the declaration would be ac- cepted as true. The son was ar rested while engaged in distributing the money. The mother was taken into custody at the home and the father was found at work digging coal.

Haynes sue ceeded in securing acquisitions for ev- erything necessary to fit out the guard In it's entirety-infantry, cavalry and artillery. The acquisitions also in cluded tents and camp equipage, so there can be little doubt as to the success of the coming encampment Over and above these allotments Gen Haynes succeeded in having allowed to the state by the war department credits for $32 ,000 These supplies are furnished by the national government under the new militia law and serve to put the state guard on the same footing as the regular army so far as the nature of equipment and supplies is concerned. It is thought that two thousand troops of the state guard will be present at the August en. campment.

BATTLESHIP KEARSARGE.
Capt. HempbiH Ordered tO Take Hls Ship at Highest Speed to
 Frenchmnn's Bay, Me.

Portsmouth, England. July 15.- Capt. Hemphill, of the United States flagship Kearsarge. received instruc- tions, Tuesday, to clean the warship's propellers, fill her bunkers with the best coal and go with the highest speed, with natural draft, to French mans Bay, Me This is the first oc- casion in time of peace that an Amer ican battleship has been subjected to such a severe test. It recalls a simi- lar voyage of the battleship Oregon during the war with Spain. Divers commenced work at once on clean ing the propellers and 1,500 tons of coal will be delivered. Capt. Hemphill will follow the great circle route, leaving Portsmouth at nine o'clock Friday morning.
 By the route that Capt. Hemphill has selected for the speed trial, the Kearsarge must steam 2,S52 miles. On her way to Southampton she made o,- 245 miles. She is thus expected to take less time on her impending voy- age. Capt. Hemphill commanded the Buffalo, which established the record of 39 days on the run from New York to Manila, and the ohlcers of the kearsarge are satisfied that with the excellent coal supply, and the vessels moderately clean bottom. the record for a battleship will be broken.

It is diff ficult to appreciate the sweeping ef- feet of the courts holding. Judge Raymond has held that the parent of sn Indian has no right to lease the ;and of his miner children unless he has by due course of legal procedure been made the legal guardian.
