PITTSBURG CONTRACTOR SERIOUSLY
WOUNDED BY MIDNIGHT ASSASSIN

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. Sc. B. ALI
son. a well-known electrical contractor
of this city, was called to the front
door of his home in Sheraden, a sub
urb, at 1:45 o'clock this morning and
shot down by an unknown person The
bullet entered Mr.. AllisOn's left side
near the heart, but he will probably re-
cover.
Mr.. Allison was awakened by loud
ringing and knocking. Securing ms
revolver he descended the stairs and
opened the door. No one was there
and ne stepped onto the porch and
was peering into the darkness when
a shot was fired from the side of the
house Mr.. Allison fired three shots
after the assassin. Mrs. Allison on
hearing the shots rushed downstairs
and found her husband half kneeling
and half hanging on the porch.
No reason was known for the at
tempt on Mr.. Allison's life, and the
Identity of the man who fired the shot
is a mystery.
1t is said that an Internal machine
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1903-02-01

was sent to Mr.. Allison last Thurs
day, but it failed to work when the
box was opened.
This morning it was said that the
shooting is the result of political trou-
BILE which Mr.. Allison has had in the
borough. Another reason given for the
shooting is that by some it is thought
Mr.. Allison is connected with the anti
saloon league, as the box containing
the revolver was directed to &c. B. Al
lison, secretary of the anti-saloOn
league. Sheraden, Pa" 1t was denied
that Mr.. Allison is in any way con-
nected with the league.
After an examination of the wound
this morning the physicians stated
that Mr.. Allison was not fatally hurt.
The bullet entered the left breast and,
without piercing the lung, lodged in
the right shoulder.
The police are at work on the case,
but there is not the slightest clue. Mr.
Allison is As years old and is manager
OF the Sheraden Electric company, with
offices in this city.

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.

Also a Few Facts on the Same Subject
We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living, about
vegetarianism and many other fads
along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
larger cities where no meat, pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank is
in his glory, and arguments and theo-
ries galore advanced to prove that meat
was never intended for human stom-
achs, and almost make us believe that
our sturdy ancestors who lived four
score years in robust health on roast
beef, pork and mutton must have been
grossly ignorant of the laws of health
Our fOTefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome was
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides to follow in mat
ters of diet, and mixed diet of grains
fruits and meats is undoubtedly the
best
AS compared with grains and vegeta-
bles. meat furnishes the most nutri-
ment in a highly concentrated form
and is digested and is assimilated more
quickly than vegetables and grains.
DR.. Julius RemmSOn on this subject
says: Nervous persons. people run
down in health and of low vitality
should eat meat and plenty of it, If
the digestion is too feeble at first ii
may be easily corrected by the regular
use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal. Two of these excellent tab
let's taken after dinner will digest sew
eral thousand grains of meat, eggs or
other animal food in three hours and
no matter how weak the stomach NAV
be. no trouble will be experienced if a
regular practice is made of using Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets because they
supply the pepsin and diastase neces-
sary to perfect digestion, and every
form of indigestion will be- overcome bv
their use.
THAT large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspenfics
should eat plenty of meat and insure its
proper digestion by the daily use OF a
safe. harmless digestive medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, composed
of the natural digestive PRINCIPLES
pepsin, diastase, .vuit acids and salt
which actually perform the work of di-
gestion. Cheap cathartic medicines
masquerading under the name of dys-
pepsia ceres, are useless for Indigestion
as they have absolutely no effect upon
the actual digestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms Is
simply a failure of the stomach to d.
gest food and the sensible way to solve
the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to
make daily use at mealtime of a prep-
aration like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, which is endorsed by the medical
profession and known to contain active
digestive principles"

THE NATIONAL GUARD.

The meeting of the officers last Sun
day, pursuant to circular No. 1, bril-
Sade headquarters, was very well at
tended, nearly every local organization
being represented. Matters of impOr-
lance to the guard We're discussed in
a general way, when a committee,
with instructions TO go more into de-
tail, was appointed by General Can
non. This committee held two long
sessions during the past week, and
while much of Importance was given
consideration, it is understood that
very few recommendations viii be pro-
posed. The officers will meet again
at the armory today al 1890 p. m.
Things were doing" at the armoFy
last Wednesday evening. This night is
set aside for the troop, and according
ly about thirty members of the or
ganization reported for the customary
drill which usually commences at s
o clOck. However, after a long wait
no officers materialized and the ire of
the naughty troopers commenced to
rise. The organization went into a
hasty caucus, and after some delibera-
ton men were chosen who the troop
ers wished We're their officers" Ser
geant +. V. Smith did the Mark An

experienced men used the grapplers on
the lesser positions of lieutenants. Ser

captain, is undoubtedly a good man,
the only argument against him being
his youth.
Indoor baseball continues to be the
reigning sport of the armory, every
organization putting in a few minutes
practice after each drill.

CANAL TREATY
is NOT POPULAR
Senator Morgan Has Donned His
War Paint and Feathers.
ADMINISTRATION UP STUMP
LONG CONFERENCE At THE
WHITE HOUSE YESTERDAY.

Washington, Jan. 31.-An important
conference was held at the White
House today, the participants being the
president. Secretary Hay and Senator
Culom, chairman of the foreign rela-
tons committee of the senate. The
subject under discussion was the stat
US of the Panama canal treaty. The
situation with regard to the treaty as
it has developed in the senate is giving
the administration and its supporters
grave concern. The president is eX-
ceedingly anxious that the treaty
should be ratified at the earliest posi-
bic moment, yet the indications now
are that serious Instructions may be
placed in the way of ratification.
The conference held today was with
view of ascertaining. if possible, what
could be done to hasten consideration
of the treaty by the senate. An effort
is to be made TO get the treaty out of
a committee with a favorable report.
That the effort will be successful is
reasonably certain, but then its trOu-
bic in the present view of the matter
will only have begun. Senator Nor
gan, chairman of the committee on
interoceanic canals, takes the ground
that the negotiations conducted by the
state department with Mr.. Herran, rep
reSenting Colombia, are not valid, as
sess the necessary authority to make
treaty binding upon his country, and
ii is understood that he will use his
utmost efforts to defeat the treaty in it's
present form.
Indeed, the intimation has reached
the president that when the treaty is
called for consideration in the senate,
amendments will be offered to almost
every section of it. Such action. it is
well understood will seriously delay
final action upon it, even if it should
ton. 1t is, stated definitely that any
amendment to the treaty would spoil
the entire canal project, as the govern
ment of Colombia might hesitate to
accept amendments made to it, partic-
uiarly if they involved essential details
or principles.
During the conference today the sit
uation was considered carefully, but
what decision, if any, was reached,
could not be ascertained. It is known
only that an earnest effort is to be
made in the senate to secure ratifica-
I ton of the treaty at the present ses-
| sion. but the method of procedure is
not disclosed. While the treaty will not
fail, even if it should not be ratified
at this session, the officials fear that
the delay which would result from
failure of the senate to take final action
might involve serious consequences.
Washington, Jan. S1.-The senate
committee on foreign relations again
discussed the Panama canal treaty,
| but did not reach conclusion. The
discussion was based entirely upon the
amendments to the treaty which were
offered yesterday by Senator Morgan,
