MILLS o DOWN..
Minneapolis MilIers Refuse to Pay
Prevailing Price for Wheat.

Minneapolis, Aug. 20.-Six of the
Minneapolis -four mills were closed
down yesterday. This is the millers'
answer to the recent advance in the
price of cash wheat. They decline to
pay 81 a bushel or even 94h cents,
the highest quotation for the best of
the old wheat CT the market yester-
day. In preference to doing SO they
decided to shut down.
So far the Washburn-Crosby com
pany has rot reduced the number of
mills in operation at this time, al
though nothing like the full capacity
has been operated recently. This
company is said to W practically all

the Institutions Affairs.

the Institutions Affairs.
Beaumont, Tex, Aug. 2O.-The Citi-
e National and Savings bank was
closed Wednesday by Bank Examiner
Logan who has been here for several
days looking over the affairs of the
institution. Examiner Logan refused
to say anything concerning the status
Of the banks affairs, except that he
had prepared a statement for the comp
troller of the currency.
It is rumored on the street that the
bank has a large sum in paper which
is alleged to be almost worthless. 1t
is also said that there is 5000. 900 in
overdrafts. The bank was opened for
business on May 81. 1901. The capital
stock was 100000 and the deposits
have been in the neighborhood of
$5OO.0 until recently. The other
banks in Beaumont were prepared for
the collapse. Their officers say they
have provided for any emergency that
may arise today when the fact of tho
suspension becomes generally known.
They say no other bank will be af-
fected by the failure.

BREAKS THE WORLDS RECORD.
Dan Patch Sets a New Mark for
PAGERS.

New York, Aug. 20.-Dan Patch
Wednesday broke the worlds record
for PAGERS by going-a mile in 1859,
driven by McHenry, at Brighton
Beach. The previous record of 1:59A
was paced by Star Pointer in 1897
and by Dan Patch in 1902.
There was a stiff breeze blowing,
which struck the horse fairly in the
face. The track was a little slow, but
the effect of the wind was discounted
by sending a runner in front, while a
second runner galloped alongside. In
view of the adverse conditions, the an
nouncement was made that Dan Patch
would go against the track record of
2:00A, but would also try to beat the
worlds record of 1:59A.
When the unbeaten PAGER, for Dan
Patch never lost a race, appeared on
the track, he was loudly cheered and
after a few preliminary warm-ups he
received the word. With a swift,
frictionless stride he shot from the
wire and seemed to be determined to
push his nose into the flying sulky,
which a runner was steadily pulling
ahead. On swept the PAGER to the
quarter in 29A. and when the half
mile pole was flashed past in 58A, a
great volume of cheers went up from
the vast crowd. Then came the DIFF
ficult top turn, and the slowest quar-
ter Of the mile. the three-quarters be-
ing lone in 1924. But down the
stretch as swift and steady as a loco
motive he came and as he shot under
the wire, the watches stopped at 1859.

Monongahela, Pa, Aug. 2O.-The
b1oodstainh body of a f%1ve-year-old
boy vas discovered last evening by
Baggagemaster NJ. B. Mcdonald on a
Pittsburg, Virginia and Charleston
railroad train en- route to Dravosburg.
The little body was packed tightly in
a coffee can and was wrapped in the
blood-soaked folds of a woman's
dress. The only mark on the body
vas a bullet hole in the breast. The
can was deposited in the baggage car
at W%altersburg by a man and woman
who said they would take it off at
Dravosburg, their destination. Their
suspicious actions aroused the curios-
ity of Mcdonald and when the train
started he opened the can. When
Dravosburg was reached the man and
woman were arrested and taken to
Jail in McKeesport. They said their
names we're Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac Jubi-
lier of Tucker. and that the boy vas
their son, who had accidentally shor
himself with his fathers revolver.
When they found he was dead they
decided to keep the matter quiet and
bury him privately at D%ravosburg.

THE SILVER SPRAY INCIDENT.
Canadian Government Investigating
the Firing Upon American Vessel.

the Firing Upon American Vessel.
Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 20.-The action
of the captain of the cutter Petrol in
firing on an American fishing boat, the
Silver Spray, in Lake Erie, is under
going thorough investigation by the
Canadian government. The Canadian
commanders log, mentioning the Incl
dent, has been received at the depart
ment of fisheries. It vas returned to
him with a request for a more de-
tailed report.
In the log, the captain of the Petrol
says he signalled the Silver Spray to
stop. No attention was paid to his
signal. He then fired across her bow.
but the Silver Spray would not alter
her course.
In the log. the captain of the Pet
rel says he signalled the Silver Spray
to stop. No attention was paid to his
signal. He then fired across her bow,
but the Silver Spray would not alter
her course.
II then fired directly at her with
several rifles" the log continues. "The
American boat kept on her course and
as she was as fast as the Petrol there
was nothing to do but lay to until she
was out Of sight"
The feeling is that commanders of
patrol boats have a right to fire on
poachers any time they refuse to stop
when ~signalled in Canadian waters
and that the Silver Sprays commander
| gave evidence of guilt when he re-
fused to heave to under the Canadian
boats fire.

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive MEASURE The
best thought of the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier and
better to prevent than TO cure. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia, one Of the mosL dangerous dis
eases that medical men have to con-
tend with, can be prevented by these
Of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from a cold
or from an attack of influenza (grip),
and it has been observed that this
remedy c~ounteracts any tendency of
these diseases toward pneumonia.
This has been fully proven in many
thousands Of cases in which this rem
edy has been used during the great
prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with i'm
|plicit confidence. Pneumonia often
results from a slight cold when no
danger is apprehended until 1t IL sud-
denly discovered that there is fever
and difficulty in breathing and pains In
the chest, then it is pronounced that
the patient has pneumonia. Be on the
safe side and take C~hamberlain's

contracted. 1t always cures. For
