the laws against them. will find a diff
ficult and rocky road to travel here

Washington is making preparations for
concerns engaged in such interdicted

severest blow recently administered
Investigation made for the purpose of

traffic IN these Illegal enterprise
amounts to hundreds CT thousands of
dollars yearly. 1t is the purpose of the
department. of justice officials to stamp

they have the authority OF the highest
court in the land that shipment OF lot
terry tickets from one state to another
by express companies is unlawful. The
tickets have been barred from the mails
O number Of years.
It is expected that much difficulty
will surround the work Of running to
earth the persons who are conducting
lotteries in this country. owing to the
close secrecy which is always observed
in regard to their operations. State
and federal laws prohibit the business,
and heavy penalties are provided for
thosa who manage and act as agents
for the various companies. But the
margin of profit is SO large that there
are always plenty of velturesome men
who are willing to run the risk OF cap
ture and punishment for the generous
salaries that are paid for going about |

The enforcement of the law which |
suppressed the Louisiana lottery and |
other like concerns had good effect,
as it largely killed the desire of the
people TO invest in tickets when pub
licity ceased to be feature to attract
their attention and allure them into

LOcOmOtOr Ataxia Yields

Mr.. j. T. Elliott, of No. 5S1S Parker
street, Pittsburg, Pa, was cured of To-
comotor ataxia by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. He says: The trouble began
with severe pain in the legs and the
physician at that time said it was
muscular rheumatism. He gave me
medicine which / took for some time
without seeing any improvement. The
pain continued and my strength kept
ebbing away. Finally | was COM

IMPORTANT ARMY IMPROVEMENTS.

Among the important achievements
OF the Fifty-seventh congress were
those for the improvement of the army
which may almost be considered as rev.
olutionized. 1t is stated that Secretary
of War Root has the distinction OF hay-
ing accomplished mora for various
branches of the military service in the
way of suggesting and achieving legis-
lation than any OF his predecessors. 1t
has been accomplished, too in the face
Of considerable opposition.
The most important legislation to the
credit OF these efforts is the army re-
organization law of 1901. This was the
law which organized the artillery regi-
ments into a separate corps with a
colonel, who has since become briga-
der general. as chief Of artillery. That
law. too, brought into practice an in
tricate system Of detailing line officers
to the supply staff departments, which
will ultimately have the effect Of abol-
oshing permanent commissions in these
corps and make line officers eligible to
alternate duty in command of troops
and as quartermasters, commissaries,
ais. This law made some radical
changes in the military system in addi-
ton to creating many commissioned
places, the filling of which in the jun
Tor grades in the last few months has
created bitter controversy.
Another measure adopted was the
system of general staff. 1t was not as
far-reaching as was urged by the army,
but it affords very effective means of
collecting information OF military util-
ity and of performing the functions OF
thority. When an emergency arises this
staff will be possessed OF the necessary
knowledge to look after details.
The new militia law is he third piece
CT legislation for which Mr.. Roo.
worked hard. 1t requirel some tactful
efforts TO do this and accomplish the
OF the national guardsmen.
The fourth achievement has been the
establishment Of the system OF military
education. not only for officers, but for
enlisted men. This includes the Army
War College at the top and the post
schools at the bottom, with service
schools at Fort Leavenwnrth, Fort Riley
end Fort Monroe, and the military
academy at West Point between A
great part of this work could have been
accomplished by executive order, but
congress had to give its sanction to the
oially for the construction and mainte-
l. nee OF the War College, the corner
enc of which was laid at Washington
] tracks on Feb. 81.
still another important law enacted
j been the act which gives an 'elas-
tie limit" to the military force. by !
which, without the aid of further Leg |
ida ion, the army may have an enlisted |
strength Of from $4,000 to 100000, so
that in the event of war the maximum
force may be put into the field without |
the delays incident to obtaining special
legislative authority.
