Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive SO and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
sEmulsionisthem
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
Scott's Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way. which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott's Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
Of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in Scott's Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

Berlin, Dec. American Jews are
no longer permitted to cross the Rus
sian frontier without special permit
in each case from NJ Won Plehwe, the
Russian interior minister.
Most American travel TO Russia by
way of Germany. The practice, until
the last two weeks, was for the Rus
sian consul general here to wise the
Jews passports upon receiving a state
ment of their purpose to visit Russia,
and that their stay there was to be
temporary.
A reputable Jew of San Francisco,
bearing a letter from the state depart
ment at Washington was assured at
the Russian acknowledgement here,
that he could not be admitted to Rus
STA now without a special order from
Minister Won Plehwe The Russian en-
bassy made the same statement. An
order was obtained ultimately from NJ
Won Plehwe, through the American

Denver. Col, Dec. 2.-Adjt-Gen.
Sherman NJ. Bell Tuesday received from
Telluride the following letter wrapped
around human finger:
Gen. Believe send you the finger
Of man who disappeared from Tellu-
ride some time ago. His ears will fol-
low and then his head. If his friends
want TO see him again in any other
way but the way we send him you
have got to do one thing. We only

will receive his ears in few days.
Don't try to find us, for it is not in the
power of tin soldier to do it.

A physician who examined the finger
pronounced it the ring finger from the
right hand. and said it was evidently
cut off shortly before the letter was
mailed, as the blood stains on the let
ter bore evidences of being fresh, and
the blood on the finger was hardly dry
yet
After comforting with Gov. Peabody,
Gen. Bell turned the letter over to the
post office inspectors, who will en-
deavor to trace its author 1t is gem

matter was intended as hoax.
The executive board of the Western
Federation of Miners, in session in
this city, Tuesday sent the following
telegram to Guy f. Miller president
of the Telluride Miners union:
advise all men who were ordered
to leave town as result of alleged yag-
rancy trials to remain in Telluride. The
justices of the peace nor any other
official of the county or state can not
compel persons to leave any place
where they choose to live. The con-
stitution Of the United States concern

officers. to deny these rights. Howe,

ishment in United States courts; the
law will be duly invoked. You are as
