People are learning that con-

1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul'

Fred Webster was present and had
little heart-to- heart talk with the commit

blocks should be presented. There is con-

seems to be to take advantage of the law
which gives the council the right to pave
by resolution between blocks where pave

no action on Mr.. WebSter's proposition,

be reopeIied for the construction of pave

MURAD v IS DEAD
Rightful Sultan of Turkey Sue
cumbS to Cruel Treatment.

| Constantinople, Aug. 3O.-Former Sui
tan Murad V. died yesterday of dia-
betes from which he had long suffered.
1t was reported in May last in Vienna
the Murad V.,the thirty-third sovereign
of the house of OSman, was dying and
at the same time it was reported from
the same source that his adherents all
over Turkey known as the young Turks
were secretly arning and only awaited
the signal to rise in instruction.
Murad V. was born in 1910 and
assembled the throne after the murder of
the sultan Abdul Aziz, May, 1876. In
July of that year Murad was placed I'M
der the regency of his brother, the pres
ent sultan, Abdul Hamid IL, and on
August 81, he was dethroned. Outward
ly this act was performed legally by
the council of ministers on the grounds
that he was insane The real facts in
the case. however, probably will never
be known, but it has been asserted that
Murad was a good deal more sane than
his brother and one of the greatest ter
rors of Abdul Hands existence was
the fear that this Turkish man with
the iron mask" as he has been termed,
might escape from his place of confine-
ment in the Cheragan palace, and some
six years ago he was removed to the
Malta Kiosk, in the grounds of Yildiz
palace. occupied by Abdul Hamid, which
is surrounded by lofty walls. In spite
of the secrecy of Murad's removal he
was seen as he passed by several for
eiSners. who declared that though he
had aged and was haggard in appear
ance. the former sultan had not lost his
majestic bearing and that he preserved
the appearance of man in the full pos
session of mental faculties. The con-
hnement of Murad has been of the
cruelest character. Only his jaiIers
We're allowed to see him and every pre-
caution was taken to prevent any, in
telligence of what was going on in the
outside world from reaching him.
Although Murad is announced tohave
died from diabetes it mad generally been
understood, according to the palace re-
ports. that he was suffering from tuber-
culOSiS.

AT THE PLAY LAST NIGHT.

The Morey Stock company opened a

night to a packed house. The advertise

two-thirds of the seats on the lower
floor went at the half dollar rate. But
then that is the Crawford system.
The label on the play was THE

make it any better. From the way sew
