Don't breathe through the mouth, but
through the nose. and inhale as deep
ly as possible.
Don't whine and don't become hyper
critical or you will probably have a
harsh, rasping voice.
Don't imagine that beauty. dress.

pensate for a poor voice.
Don't expect to speak clearly unless
you hold up your head and open your
throat as well as your mouth.
Don't take life too seriously If you
want melodious voice. Relax the
strained muscles Of the face and neck
and look and be happy and contented.
Think Of pleasant things.
Don't try always to speak in a
''sweet, low voice Cultivate variety.
Let the tones be gay. warm, vivacious.
Don't push the sound out with the

The water barrels placed near by the
company were filled, but no buckets
were at hand. Taking his new fall hat

hour, he put out the blaze just a short
time before an express train went by
at a speed Of mile a minute.

of frightening away a very consider

a resuscitatlon of the bus. Several of

Coal Controversy
Umpire Holds Employers MeY
Discharge for Any Cause

Scranton, Pa: Hon. Carroll D..
Wright, the umpire to whom was re-
ferred the FIVE disputes between the
operators and miners representatives
on the Board of Cancellation, appoint
ed under the provisions of the anthra-
cite mine strike commission, filed his
findings Tuesday with T. D. Nichols,
secretary of the board In dealing
with the question of the employers
right to discharge men for any cause
other than of connection with a labor
union, Umpire Wright agrees wholly
with the contention of the operators
representatives and declares that the
right of an employer to discharge
without giving the cause of the dis
charge is sustained by the award Of
the commission.
He says that the Jehigh Coal and
Navigation Company and Coke Bros.
& Co. should take back old men in
stead of putting on new men, in all
cases where the old men are compe-
tent and have not been convicted or
are not awaiting trial for crime COM
mitted during the strike. The UNI
pire's findings cover IS pages of type.
writing. Regarding the case as a
whole, he says:
THE opinion is rendered that all
the men employed by Coke Bros. &
Co, Incorporated, at the time of the
strike in 1902, except those who have
been convicted of crime committed
during the strike, or who are still un-
der arrest, or to whom employment
can not be given on account of new
machinery, or who are incompetent,
ought to be preferred to new men in
giving out work when they apply

Kansas City, Mo-: The heaviest
rain storm in the history Of western
Missouri fell in Kansas City Tuesday
night and Wednesday. At noon the
storm was severe and rain fell ia tor
rents. For time the street car lines
we're put out of commission and BUSH

hours, according to measurements taxi

Bureau, 4.20 inches of rain fell. In
the west bottoms some of the bust

the easements. In Rosedale. a SUI
burb, water covers the streets to a
depth of feet, and no cars are being
run to that place. Turkey and o. X.
creeks rose rapidly, and families liv-
ing along the banks were forced to
leave their homes. The rise brought
down a large amount of drift, and for
a time 1t was feared that the bridge
which carries the flow line across Tur-
key creek, and which supplies Kansas

Turkey Yields to
Leishman's Demands
United States Minister Followed Instructions of FIis
Home Government

Washington: Oficial advices re-
ceivcd Thursday at the state Depart.
ment confirm the press dispatches to
the effect that the American Minister
was most active in securing change
Of Governors at Beirut. Minister
Leishman demanded the dismissal of
the Vail Of Beirut and the demand
was acceded' to by Turkey. Omcials
Of the department make It clear that
the Minister was acting In line with
the instructions given him, and that
his course has been heartily approved.
They scout the idea that foreign pow
ers can take umbrage or that they
will object to the course Of the United
States. This Government is not ax.
pected to find it necessary to explain
it's action in this connection, but II 1t
should 1t will urge that nothing has
been done except to insure the safety
Of our citizens or residents in Turkey
both as to life and property. The
Governor Of the province had demon
strated his inability to control the sit
uatfon, or else his disinclinatiOn to do
so.
While this Government disclaims
any desire to interfere in the domestic
affairs of Turkey, 1t claims the right
to take any steps with a weak and APP
parently irresponsible power to make
suggestions whose adoption will OBJ
viate the necessity for any radical in
reference with domestic Government
The United States is shaping its ac-
lions irrespective of the attitude or
steps taken by other powers. 1t is
realized that foreign powers, while in
tensely alert to what the plans OF each
other may be, are not suspicious of
this country. 1t is realized abroad

Bogota: A proposal made by Senior
Perez y Sotos to ask the executive
to appoint an antisecessIonist. Govern
or in Panama has been approved by
the Senate.
Speakers in the Senate said that
Senior Obaldia, who was recently APP
pointed Governor OF Panama and who
is favorable to a canal treaty, was

ator Marroquin protested against the
action Of the Senate.
President Marroquin succeeded lat
er in calming the Congressman. It
appears that he was able to give them
satisfactory reasons for Governor
Obaldia's appointment.
The Bogota government appears to
realize the imminent peril of the 18th
mus Of Panama, declaring its indie
pendence.
Senior DerouN, Representative for a
Panama constituency, recently deliv-
cred a sensational speech in the
House. Among other things, he said:
I'm Panama. the Bishops. Govern
ors, magistrates, military chiefs and
their subordinates have been and are
foreign to the department. 1t seems
that the Government, with surprising
tenaclty, wishes to exclude the 18TH
mus from all participation in public

Lelshman's Demand Promptly Granted
Constantinople: Not content with
simply the sending of Nazlm Pasha,
Vail of Syria, to take charge of the
administration OF AFFAIRS at Beirut,
Minister Leishman demanded Of the
Porte the summary dismissal of Re
shid Pasha, the the Vail of Beirut, un-
der whose rule the recent disturb
ances occurred This demand was
placed on the ground that under his
incompetent administration the lives
and property of Americans in Beirut
were insecure. The Porte promptly
complied. Reshid Pasha was dismiss
ed and Nazim Pasha formally appoint
ed Vail of Beirut in his place.
The compliance of the Sultan with
the demand of the United States Min
lister has had a quieting effect at Bel
rut. Christians who had fed are re-
turning and representatives Of foreign
governments have decided not to ask
Admiral Cotton to. land marines. The
Admiral expressed himself, however,
as being able on short notice to land
500 men from the Brooklyn and San
Francisco If found necessary. Nazim
Pasha has promised to make a rigid
investigation of the recent disorders
and this has restored confidence to
foreign residents.

London: The oficiaI and press re-

emphasize the seriousness Of the sit
uatlOn there and confirm the belief of
the authorities here that the Sultan
may be swept by the uncontrollable
sentiments Of his Subjects into a war
with Bulgaria, despite the unwilling
ness Of the Porte to precipitate' such
a conflict.
There is no question IN official cir
cles here that the Porte will take en-
ergetic measures to suppress any
trouble at Beirut.
France may order warshlps to that
point to protect her interests. but
Germany has asserted that she will
not do so.
A high diplomatic authority assert
ed Wednesday that when Russia sub.
mits TO the Porte her proposals for
the pacihoation Of Macedonia she may
dispatch her Black Sea feet to Tur-
kish waters, and 1t may make
much longer stay there than did the
Russian squadron at Inisda Bay.
The st. James Gazette Wednesday
afternoon says an arrangement has
been arrived at between Great Brit

The Turkish Embassy issued anoth-
er statement Wednesday, declaring
that the reports OF massacres emanate
from the Bulgarian side, and are pur-
posely exaggerated in the hope Of Sc
curing European Intervention. It To-
iterates disbelief in the. seriousness of
the Beirut situation and adds:
"The Turkish Government there

depart as speedily as possible, as their
presence only tends to incite the peo-
pie. From Constantinople the Embas-
sy is informed that there is, no reason
for the assembling Of the American

Official press complaining against Doc

Of the Dutch West Indies, and the
other arbitrators, who are character
lied as robbers worthy of hanging.
The violence of the press is without
precedence, going so far as to say the
Government will not accept the judg-
ment.
The newspaper Pregonero, in a
strongly worded article, says:
I'VE are Venezuelans. We will not
accept these impositions. The decis-
lions of the arbitrators are joke. Do
these old gentlemen suppose that Ven
ezuela is a country Of saYages in
which they can slash right and left?
