WILL SHORES BE DIsBARREDP
Attorney Talks Of Conspiracy Confession
for Senator Elark's1 Benefit.

BUTTE, Mont, July len the Shores
disbarment case today, four motions, the
last being to dismiss the proceedings, were
made by counsel for the defense. Attor-
ney Vale, for Shores, argued TO show
that the only real and permissible evil
dence introduced was that which showed
that if conspiracy existed concerning
Judge Harvey it was between Attorney
Root and Clark, the latter trying to get
by Augustus Heinze's agent in order to
make political material of the confession
in the campaign of his father, Senator
w. A. Clark, against HeinZe. So far,
the defense maintained, there was no evil
dence to show Shores was concerned in
the alleged conspiracy at all.

A new use has been found for telegraph
wires. Dr. Laska, Polish meteorologist,
has studied the humming sound they, emit
occasionally and has found that 1t Is not
caused by the wind, as commonly suppos
ed Eydams observations, extending over
several years, show that these sounds al
ways indicate the approach of rain, snow

lief that they are in some way caused by

route that the fruit was spoiled when it

The railroad companies claim that the
car is not subject to attachment because
it is engaged in interstate commerce law,
and therefore exempt.

Cecil Rhodes, May.

From the New York Mail and Express.
 The late Cecil Rhodes with his extra ordinary wealth, was able to do things in a way that many another would envy. On the other hand, he was extraordinary fly democratic in his mode of living and seemed to have no idea of such a thing as home comfort or of collecting around him little knick-knacks of his own choos- ing or procuring This always apart from his South African home, Groot Schuur. which was unfortunately burned down not long ago, where he had a mag nihcent collection of old oak furniture, being especially fond of old oak dover chests
 On the occasion of his last visit to England be purchased an estate at New market, which he declared was the one spot in all the world that suited his health best. Finding himself in possess sion of an immense unfurnished mansion, he telephoned at 9 o'clock. one morning to the largest furniture establishment in London. asking that a representative be sent to his hotel to see him at once. The request was immediately complied with. and on the arrival of the manager he said:
 MT. Williams. I have 2 house at New market containing twenty-seven bed rooms. drawing-rooms, d.ningroom, study etc. Have it furnished for me in three days with everything complete. Good day"

 SOLICITS COOPERATION

sity. In the preparation of this important book Professor Dabney asks for the CO., operation of the people, and he is entitled to it. In a public appeal MT. Dabney says:
 Having determined to attempt writing the history of reconstruction in the south, I desire to appeal most earnestly for the aid and cooperation of all persons hav- ing accurate knowledge of any facts that would shed light upon that period, or who can tell me where or how such knowledge may be obtained.
 Many persons possess books, pamph- lets, newspapers or letters giving con- temporary accounts of events from the time of Lincoln's reconstructive experi- ments down to the withdrawal of federal troops from the south by Hayes. Such historical material, though comparatively useless in many cases to it's owners, and lying upon dusty shelves or garret floors, would be of inestimable value to the his- torical investigator
 MT. Dabney asks that books, pamph- lets, newspapers or old letters bearing up- on the reconstruction era be either given to the library of the University of Vir- ginia or lent for a time to him personally. It is to be hoped that this appeal will meet with a generous response.

REMEDY FOR COTTON WEEvlL.

Austin, Tex, February 17.-A dispatch from the City of Mexico says that a series of experiments, covering a period of several years has been made by ex- pert entomologists of the Mexican gov ernment, with view of devising some method for eradcating the cotton boil weevil.
 It is officially announced that success finally has rewarded the efforts of those scientists and that it has been discover ed that peculiar species of spider which exists in certain localities or the tropics of Mexico will feed on the eggs of the cotton boil weevil and the weevll itself Preparations are being made to place col onies of these spiders in,the cotton-grow- ing regions of Mexico.

MEDICAL PROGRESS IN 1903.
Important Discoveries of Remedies
 and Preventives.

From the Baltimore American.
 At the close of the year the American, in speaking of the work accomplished by the various branches of human en- deavor, ventured the opinion that 1903 would be year of realization in medi- characterization from the researches and discoveries and the faithful labors of the preceding and other years. The world has not advanced far into the present year. yet there are good reasons for be- lieving that the prediction will be justi- fled. The remarkable cures wrought by the use of formalin have startled even the medical profession. There can be no doubt of the cures, though much is still unknown concerning the effects of for malin, what are it's limitations and how far it can be safely applied It has cured some people, however and the discovery of the class of cases to which 1t can be applied Is only a matter of time.
 This is not the only discovery of the new year. An Italian physician has found the bacillus of pneumonia, and has made use of it to arrest the progress of the disease Many physicians-per- haps all-have conceded that pneumonia was a germ disease, but the opinion on the subject has been vague, and the fact that pneumonia appeared to spring from sudden changes of temperature or reck- less exposure rather than from germs has led the layman to accept the bacillus the- ory with more or less of incredulity. The discovery of the Italian physician goes far to establish that every disease is the result of germs. This being ascertained, it ought not to be difficult reasoning by analogy, to find a remedy for every dis ease.
 These are not the only discoveries in 1903. only a month of which has passed Professor Baginsky of the Emperor and Empress Frederick Chidrens hospital in Berlin, announces that a discovery of serum against scarlet fever has been made by Dr. Aronson. He believes that the serum will be specific for this dis ease. There can be few more important medical discoveries. There is no great CT scourge of infancy than scarlet fever In recent years it seems to have been more benign than formerly but 1t is a treacherous and exasperating disorder, and physicians will joyfully welcome a substance that will control it. Discovery appears to be making rapid strides in 1903 but it is to a large extent the harvest from the laborious studies and researches in the past

Text Books in Other States.

Dr. Phillips, the efficient superin- tendent of Birmingham's public schools, stated on Monday before the board of education that state uniform ity had not proven satisfactory i'll Tennessee and other states where it had been tried. This raises a distinct issue between Dr. Phillips and Gov ernor McMillin of Tennessee. Governor McMillin says the text book law of Tennessee is so popular it was made the subject of plank in the last state '' democratic platform and was ratified by 10000 majority. There are a few oyerwise teachers in Tennessee who do not like the law, but the people like it, and there is no danger what ever of it's repeal.
 Nor is this all. No text book law drawn on state lines has been re- pealed in the south from Texas and Missouri to North Carolina, and so far as The Age Herald is aware no state textbook law has been altogether re- pealed in any northern state. Indiana is particularly a state that secures books for use in her public schools at very low rates. She has no thought of repeating her law. Governor Me Millin puts the annual saving to the barefoot boys and girls of Tennessee through the operation of the present textbook law at $25O,OOO. This is the sum that can readily be saved to the children of Alabama each year by a state textbook law.
 It may as well be understood first as last that there are teachers in every state so individual anG peculiar that they cannot brook interference with their privileges which are of long standing. This is the story in ali states, and one state after another is disregarding such teachers and is considering the claims and interests of those who have to pay the freight. One state after another is putting the interests of the barefoot boys and girls ahead of the notions of their teachers.
