later brought out by the defendants
counsel. when he called the attention
of the jury to the fact that had Evans

KING EDWARDS TRAIN.
Pa1atia1 Quarters of the English
Monarch When He Goes on
Railway Trip.

The new royal train lately built by
the London and Northwestern Railway
company consists of two saloons one
for the king and the other for the
queen and Princess Nictoria-three sa-
looms for the suite, and two brake vans.
says the London Globe. The saloons,
which are on 12-wheel bogies, are each
60 feet six inches in length over the
buffers, and there is straight run
of nearly 400 feet from end to end of
the train, which weighs 210 tons. The
interiors of the royal saloons are lux
uriously furnished. The kings smok-
ing room is paneled in mahogany, with
inlays of rosewood and satinwood. The
chairs are upholstered in green leath-
er, and the curtains, carpet, ETC., are
in similar tones of color, while the
gliding of the metal work has been sub
dued in effect to keep the whole rest
full to the eye. The kings day compart-
ment in the same saloon is decorated in
the colonial style, and is in white
enamel. The furniture is of satinwood
inlaid with ivory. This room also is
in green, though of a lighter tone. The
windows are unusually large The spe-
cial features in this and the other
rooms are the methods of heating or
cooling. Electric heaters have been
introduced, and each room can be
heated up to any temperature desired.
For the hot weather electric waving
fans will help to keep the temperature
down, and these fans can be regulated
so as to be driven at any of three rates
of speed. If desired, the windows can
be lowered, and fine dust-proof ventila
tors inserted. His majesty's bed and
dressing rooms are also in white
enamel, with silver-plated fittings, the
upholstery generally being of a soft
green shade.

A New Diamond.

The following is contributed to the
sporting pags of the Evening News,
being written by member of the
team.
Captain Edward Peterson wishes
the members of the Union Stars Base
ball Club to meet at the new proposed
diamond of the above named club.
The captain and catcher have selected
a beautiful place for diamond. Last
years diamond was not level and
when heavy batter" got hit out
of the ball it would land into the
other street. There is little ditch
crossing the diamond about a foot
deep and yard wide. This the U. S.
boys will try to fix Saturday morning.

SOME SIMPLE REMEDIES.
Home Treatment for Spring Ailments
That Are Easy to Adj
minister.

A most efficient remedy for diphthe-
ria is the juice of the pineapple. The
corrosive nature of the fluid cuts away
the mucus and gives speedy relief,
says American Queen.
The Importance of lavender as a
restorative cannot be overestimated.
For tired-out nerves. irritability and
irregular flushings, it is not to be
excelled. Two or three teaspoonfuls
of the tincture in a'cupful of hotwater
with slice of lemon, is almost magical
in it's effects, and restores a woman
to her normal self in a very few min
utes.
1t has been said that apples were
the food of the gods. They are in
deed an excellent tonic, if eaten reg
'qlarly. Many people attribute their
good health to eating one or two a
day.
Too much exercise is exhausting to
the system, and wastes vitality and if
persisted in shortens lHfe. OF course.
the other extreme is equally bad. A
failure to exercise the muscles regu-
larly has degenerating effect on the
system, by preventing proper nutri-
tion and circulation, and also by caus-
ing accumulations of fat.
Burns and scalds should be treated
with glycerine and -four. Tie up the
affected part with a linen bandage to
exclude the air. Cotton wool is bet
ter than linen for this purpose and
should be kept in the house for emerg-
cncies.

Dreadful Attack of whooping Cough

Mrs. Ellen Harrison, of 300 Park
Avenue, Kansas City, Mo-, writes as
follows: "Our two children had a
severe attack of whooping cough, one
of them in the paroxysm of coughing
would often faint and bleed at the
nose. We tried everything we heard
of without getting relief. We then
called in our family doctor who pre-
scribed Foley's Honey and Tar. With
the very first dose they began to i'm
prove and we feel that it has saved
their lives. Refuse substitutes.

grave was dug, and In II the warrior
was buried, seated upright on his
horse. For centuries reflections were
cast upon the accuracy of this tradi-

vations were being made close by the
reputed burial place Of Lord Dacre the
pick OF a digger struck into a great
bone and upon further search being
made the skull Of a big horse was
brought 10 the surface. AS this was
found almost at the very spot under

cally IN the soil The skull was re-
placed carefully In It's original position
