QUEBEC, Aug. 5.-Canada is threat

1t is the prevailing opinion that if
there can be found room for additional
members of orders existing in Canada.
they should be permitted to Join their
brothers and sisters here, but that no
new orders shall be admitted. In view
of the tax exemption of religious prop

a few fathers of the Holy Sacrament

GRAND JURY ENGAGED
ON POSTAL MATTERS
More Witnesses to Testify
Regarding Them.
SUMMONS ISSUED TO MANY
Probable That Beavers Case Will Soon
Be Taken Up-Minor Cases to Be
Considered.

From present Indications 1t appears
that there VIII be no let-up by District
Attorney Beach in the prosecution Of the
charges growing out OF the Investigation
carried on in the Postoffce Depart
ment. While no witnesses are expected
to appear before the grand Jury within
the new few days in connection with
the investigation, ii is known that since
the grand jury reported last week sew
eraI persons have been summoned to
come and testify relative to irregulari-
ties in the department. AS in the case
OF the indictments, recently reported by
the jury. the summonses sent out yester-
day from the District Attorneys office
called persons to testify against John
Doe who very frequently figures in
criminal proceedings.
Beavers Case Next.
The persons who have this week been
summoned to appear before the grand
Jury are not expected to testify before
the beginning OF next week or perbane
later. Regarding whom or what the
witnesses are called to testify is of
course. kept a profound secret. The
continued attendance Of Postofice In
speetor Mayer at the District Attor-
ney's office, however, makes II very ev-
ident that the witnesses are wanted IN
connection with the prosecution of
charges growing out Of the Postoflce
scandals.
Rumor has it that the next person
whose actions will be inquired into NV
the grand jury is George w. Beavers. nm
III recently superintendent OF the di-
vision Of salaries and allowances in the
Postofiice Department Nearly q month
ago he was indicted by the grand fury
In Brooklyn, N Y, but has not vet been
apprehended. The Posrofice authorities
however, it is believed. would much pre-.
fer that Beavers be also indicted in this
Jurisdiction The charges against him
could be much more easily handled in
the local courts than in Brooklyn. and
for this reason it is believed that an in
dietment will be reported against hir.
here.
Recess in Prospect.
For the past two days the grand Jury
has been engaged in looking into several
minor criminal cases. This work will
occupy the attention of the jury for the
remainder of the week In the early
part or next week it is probable that the
investigation in what is known as the
Tyner case will be resumed. II this mat
ter is not taken up next Monday IL Is
likely that the hearing in the Johnston
voucher case" VIII be concluded, and
the jury able to report on this matter by
the end of next week
After hearing the testimony of persons
summoned to testify in connection with
the Postof1ce Investigation. it is prob
able the jury will take a short recess,
before any new cases are taken up.

PREVALENCE OF CATARRH
Growing Use Of HyOmei Will Soon Show q
Decrease Of this Disease.

Statistics show that at least 81 out
of every 100 persons in this State are
suffering from catarrh in some form.
While the disease is one of the most
common with which the medical pro-
fession has to contend, 1t also is one
Of the most dangerous. This is owing
to its tendency to affect the bronchial
tubes, causing consumption and other
diseases of the respiratory organs.
The discovery Of Hyomei and its in
creased use has already reduced the
percentage of persons suffering from
catarrh. This wonderful remedy Is
the simplest and most pleasant of all
treatments. just put q little Hyomei
in the pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit, breathe through the in
haler for ten minutes four times a
day. Relief will be seen from the
first treatment; cure will soon follow.
1t is the true treatment for diseases
of the respiratory organs.
Scientific and medical men recon-
mend it. Leading druggists have 30
much faith in it that they guarantee
a cure OF they will refund the money.
In this city Feldmeyer Brothers are
selling it upon that plan, so that any
Of our readers can use Hyomei with
out its costing them a cent unless 1t
cures. Can there be a fairer way2
