FIGHTING FOR INDEPENDENCE.

i
The disturbances in the Astrabad prov
inces of Persia continue. The troops are
wholly unable to cope with the Iurcoman
rising. The rebellion arose OUT OF inc
establishment of Persian customhouse
nm the Russo Persian frontier, sang uin-
ary conflict ensuing between the fersiau
customs officials and the Turcomans.
The governor of Astrabad appeared on
the scene with large body OF troops,
and the Turooman khans offered compen-
sation. This was refused by the COVER
nor. khaus swore that they would not
Law down their arms until the governor
was dismissed. Further fighting took place
and the Persian troops had TO withdraw.
A price was placed on the head OF Had
!; Mabmud, who is considered to have
led the revolt. The governor has now be-
come alarmed at the situation, and has
made overtures to Hadji Mahmud, prom
Using in future that taxation will be re-
duced, but his offers have been rejected.
The Turcomans are said to be well equip
ped and to have plenty of ammunition.
1t is no longer, they say, question of
taxation with them, but one of indepen-
dence, for which they will fight or become
Russian subjects. 1t is quite probable
that Russia instigated the revolt. Already
Russia has practically absorbed northern
Persia. The railways and customs are in
her hands. A Russian loan practically
makes the Shah a vassal. Some day north
ern Persia will be annexed by Russia.

EyADRs ToRMENToRs.- Resolved to
escape the usual rice and old shoes, Mr..
and Mrs. Stephen Powell, after they had
been made man and wife at the home Ct
the BRIDES parents in Brooklyn, climbed
down a ladder from a third-story win
dow, slid down a pile of lumber and
were speeding away on tram before
friends who had planned to make the
going a memorable occasion knew what
had happened. They are on their way
south today with little luggage, but the
knowledge that they outwitted the plot
tiers. In the presence of about 80
guests the young couple were married.
Dnring the wedding supper both bride
groom and bride arose from the table
and left their guests laughing, for had
not the front door been securely locked,
and were not guards on watch at the
rear doors?
Friends, however, had placed ladder
for them at a window, and, after max
ing a hasty change to street clothing,
the young people climbed out and
down, and then lumber pile helped
them out.
The ladder led to the roof of an ex-
tension, and some of the bridegroom's
assistants had made a sloping platform
out of the lumber. Down this incline
Mr.. and Mrs. Powell went, and a
carriage was waiting to take them away.
1t was Is minutes before the plotters at
the supper table found that they had
been Outwitted.

WHEN IS A BABY NORMAL ?
Medical Expert Tells How Mother
Can Answer the Question
Beyond a Doubt.

When a person first becomes parent
he or she watches the little new
born creature with the most intense
anxiety. The fear sometimes haunts
the parent that perhaps the babe is not
mentally perfect. The father tries 10
solve the problem, but his mind has
nothing to hold to, nothing to guide it
to a conclusion. A few glances may tell
that the baby's body has all the outward
evidences of being normal, but the par
ents' endeavors to understand the SLOW
ly-awakening mind prove futile. How
much greater would be my joy" a
mother often says to herself "if knew
that ny baby's brain is as it should be"
According to some experts. however,
this suspense is needless. They declare
that the mind of baby is normal if the
child is able to do certain things at GER
tain ages. 1t is only when the baby acts
differently that fear may we'll seize the
mothers heart, fear that her babe may
be fooliskt.. that cnlv its animal nature

will have to be deducted from this
total and that the total crop available
for milling purposes will be 555. 1000,
900 bushels
''The winter wheat crop is a short
one, and besides there is an enormous
quantity Of low grade wheat, the re-
suit of Lard wet winter and rust, -
he says. ''There is scarcely section
of the winter wheat belt where the
crop has not suffered. The spring
whaet estimate may be changed, de-
pending on the weather until it is en-
tirely seavd The estimate on winter
wheat is based on extensive investiga-
tion and reports from about $4,000
farmers.
The possibility of wheat at 81. 20 is
considered highly improbable by mem
bers of the chamber of commerce who
are familiar with the wheat situation,
but the probable bullisn effect of cir
culars received by $4,000 farmers is
not disputed Minneapolis Journal.
