WILL SWALLOW POISON.
Fraternity Homeopathic to Take
Drug Unknown to Them.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Jan. 29.-The 16
members of the Alpha Sigma fraterni-
ty, which is the secret society in the
homeopathic department of the Uni
Versity of Michigan, will offer them
selves as living test tubes for expert
ments to find an antidote for a certain
poison, the nature of which will be
kept secret from the subjects. In
month the young men will begin the
experiments, which will last three
months. At first very small quantities
of the poison will be administered and
gradually the amount will be increased
and symptoms noted DR.. c. E. Iber-
shoff will conduct the experiments.
The students who are ready to make
the sacrifice for the sake of materia
medica are: Harold H. Baker, RocheS-
ter, N. Y; Hugh M. Beebe, Sidney
Mich. Leon ]. Gibson, Vassar, Mich;
Peter Gotfredsen, Manistee, Mich;

Not all will be accepted. but only
it's of life will be unchanged, except
that no alcoholic liquors will be allowed.
Smokers may continue to smoke. The
tests will be carried on under directions
issued by the New York Society of
Drug Provers, which sends out the
drug. The boys do not know what rem
edy they are to prove. At present the
men of the Alpha chapter in New York,
who instituted the proving which is
now being participated in by all the
chapters, are proving the most virulent
snake poison known to science. The
drug that the local chapter will prove
probably will be from some poisonous
plant.
Every hour or two during the day the
patient will take his poison and watch
the results carefully. After the expira-
ton of three months each proven will
be given physical examination to note
results. Proving a poisonous remedy
was tried in Ann Arbor by few stu
dents once before. many years ago
Most students are not willing to give
themselves up to this kind of investiga-
ton, even for the advancement of sci
ence, for risk attends the treatment.

REND LIVE ROOSTER.
College Students Tear Fowl to Pieces
in Color Rush.

Sioux City, Ia, Jan. 29-Sixty stu
dents of Morningside college, the educa-
tional institution fostered and controlled
by the Northwest Iowa Methodist con-
ference, may be prosecuted by the To-
cal humane society on the charge of
tearing a live rooster to pieces in a
class scrap.
The rending of the rooster took the
place of an ordinary color rush. The
freshmen insisted on wearing their coll
ors in chapel The sophomores could
not stand this but as there are only
twenty sophomores they had little
chance of success in an ordinary color
rush. and besides it had been forbidden
by the faculty. The sophomores there
fore secured live rooster, decorated it
with the freshman colors, and liberated
it in the chapel during the prayers. The
rooster promptly flew over to the fresh
man side of the chapel
Then the battle followed, and in the
melee the rooster was torn to pieces in
the scramble for its possession between
the excited classmen. The account of
the mutilation of the rooster by the
warning classmen has aroused the in
dignation of the humane society, and
Officer Vreeland of the police depart
nnent, who is also an official of the hui
name society, will so to Morningside to
investigate.

Otto Kuehne Plant in a Big
Merger.
Headquarters Will Be in Kan
sas City.

The recurrent rumors that the Otto
Kuehne Picking and Preserving works
are to be moved away from Topeka
have at last assumed definite form.
While the plant is not going to be taken
away from Topeka entirely. neVerthe-
less the HEADQUARTERS are to be moved
to Kansas City and the business is to
be conducted chiefly from that point.
The Topeka plant is to be operated
somewhat as a feeder for the Kansas
City institution.
The details of the plan are told in the
following article in Kansas City paper
this morning:
Frank J. Horn has just completed
the merger of three picking and pre-
serving plants, the Kuehne Picking
and Preserving company Of Topeka,
Kas., the Crauel Picking and Preserv-
ing company of Denver, Colo, and the
Block Syrup and Preserve company of
Kansas City. The new concern will be
known as the Otto Kuehne Preserving
company of Kansas City, Mo, Denver,
Colo, and Topeka, KaS Its capital
stock will be Il million dollars.
The Kansas City factory will be the
main manufacturing and distributing
persons and will require the services
of fifteen statesmen on the road 1t
will be the largest concern of this char
acter west of Chicago.
The Denver and Topeka plants will
be used principally for supplies. salt
ing, picking and vinegar manufacture
ing.
1.-THE Kansas City plant will be To-
Gated for the present in the four-story
building now occupied by the Block
Syrup and Preserve Company at Third
and Delaware. This, however, will be
only temporary, as a six-story factory
building will be erected on switch prop
erty to accommodate their large and
growing business. The officers of the
company are;
lotto Kuehne, president and manager
of the Topeka plant.
Thomas E. Creuel, vice president
and manager of the Denver plant.
Frank ]. Horn, secretary and man
ager of the Kansas City plant
ME. Horn, who organized the new
company, came here from Ohio in 1888
and has been identified with Kansas

trust and has had several flattering Of
fers to leave here, but refused them all
He is a charter member of the Man

GIVE YOUR STOMACH
A NICE VACATION
Don't Do 1t By Starving 1t Either
Let Substitute Do the Work.

The old adage, ''AlI work and no
play makes Jack dull boy" applies
just as well to the stomach, one of the
most important organs of the human
system, as it does to the man, him
self
If your stomach is worn out and re-
bells against being further taxed be-
yond it's limit, the only sensible thing
you can do is to give it a rest. En-
ploy a substitute for short time and
see if it will not more than repay you
in results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a will
ing and most efficient substitute. They
themselves digest every bit of food in
the stomach in just the same way that
the stomach itself would, were it well.
They contain all the essential elements
that the gastric juice and other di-
geStive fluids of the stomach contain
and actually act just the same and do
just the same work as the natural
fluids would do, were the stomach well
and sound. They, therefore, relieve the
stomach, just as one workman relieves
another. and permit it to rest and re-
cuperate and regain its normal health
and strength.
This vacation" idea was suggested
by the letter of a prominent lawyer in
Chicago. Read what he says: "I was
engaged in the most momentous under
taking of my life in bringing about
the coalition of certain great interests
that meant much to me as well as my
L
but of months, I was working night
and day almost, when at a very crit
ical time my stomach went clear back
on me. The undue mental strain
brought it about and hurried up what
would have happened later on.
What 1 ate I had to literally force
down and that was a source of misery
as I had a sour stomach much of the
time. My head ached, I was sluggish
and began to lose my ambition to carry
out my undertaking. It looked pretty
gloomy for me and confided my plight
to one of my clients. He had been cured
by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and at
once went down to a drug store and
brought a box UP to the Office.
4 had not taken a quarter of that
box before L found that they would do
! all the work my stomach ever did; and
as a rest or vacation was out of the
| question for me, I determined to give
my stomach a vacation. I kept right
on taking the tablets and braced up
and went ahead with my work with
renewed vigor, ate Just as much as
ever did and carried out that .uTdertal-
| ing to successful issue. feel that
| have Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to
| thank for saving me the handsomest
| fee ever received as well as my repu-
tation and last but not least my stom-
ach.''
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
! sale by all druggists at so cents a box.

and various other forms Of manufac-
turing can be carried on. The ground
space will be provided in the event the
association decides TO erect building.
The manufacturers win utilize the

INCREASE OF WARsHlPs.
Building Program Recommended to
Secretary OF Navy.

Three battleships. five scout cruisers,
six torpedo boat destroyers, six torpedo
boats and two squadron colliers, at an
aggregate maximum cost of $4l,3OO,OO0,
Is the building program which the gem
eral board OF the navy has recon-
mended the secretary of the navy to
urge congress to authorize at its next
session. Secretary Morton will refer
the recommendation to the board on
construction for report and will base
his recommendation to congress on
the reports of the two boards.
Homogeneity is earnestly urged by
the board as the great need of the navy
and the board suggests that the new
battleships be of the general type OF
the Connecticut class. That would
give the navy nine flrst-class battle
ships OF 10000 tons displacement each
Great speed is urged as the feature
of the five scout cruisers recon-
mended. Two millions is the estima-
ted limit of cost OF each Of these two
ships. In character they will follow
the general lines of the Chester Bir-
mIngham and Salem, authorized by the
last congress, which have displace-
ment OF 1000 tons.
The board thinks the six torpedo
boat destroyers and six torpedo boats
recommended should have greater
size and seaworthiness than previously
built vessels OF the class.
The new colliers asked for probably
will have a displacement of 1880
tons and speed Of about sixteen
knots, which would enable them to
keep up with the battleship squadron
at cruising speed.
