the cost of the paint and the cost of put

1t would save this country hundreds
of Mullins eff dollars year; il would
save you alone Gf you happen to be a

See how it works. 1t costs as much to
put-on one paint al another, don't it
Yes, if you use the same number OF
gallons.
Well, don't 1 7
No, you III use twice as many gallons
OF adulterated paint as OF Devoe; aud
you've GO TO pay twice as much for
putting it on.

ASSAULT ON AT PORT ARTHUR.
Advices from Che Foo Says There is
Evidence Ii Is

Che Foo, Sept. 19.-Local students
of the military situation at Port Ar
thur, basing their deductions upon re-
cent developments there, are of the
opinion that another grand assault
is either occurring at the present time
or is imminent This opinion is
based on the very heavy lombard
ment of the Russian stronghold that
occurred on Setember 16, for such a
Commandment forms the usual prelude
to an assault; on the arrival here of
important messengers from Port Ar
thur, at time when the running of
the blockade is extremely perilous on
recent authoritative statement that
the Japanese siege works are COM
pleted, and on reports from Japanese
sources that at Dalny an assault was
expected to take place in a few days.
These reports were received last
week.
In addition to the foregoing, there
is the common knowledge that the
Japanese realize that their continued
inactivity increases the resisting
power of the Russian garrison, and
their consequent desire to make such
period of inactivity as brief as pos
sible.
London, Sept. 19.-The Daily Tele-
graphs Che Foo correspondent says:
1.-TWO Germans and a Cossack, who
have arrived from Port Arthur, assert
that General Kuropatkin told Lieuten-
| ant General Stoessel that he must
hold out until January, and they say
| that the garrison has ammunition and
| food for six months. This probably
| is greatly exaggerated.
"Other refugees say that no fresh
| meat is left at Port Arthur and that
the garrison there is reduced to 5000.
Boys as young as 10 years have
been Impressed for hospital work.

tense vessel Grtmiashchi by striking

LARGE sum TAKEN.
Rock island Depot at Atlantic Robbed
Of $f,545.

VI Vit0TO. + u
Atlantic, Sept. 1S.--While Cashier
C. III. Miller of the Rock Island freight
depot here stepped outside about five
or ten minutes yesterday afternoon,
someone stepped inside and took
about $1,545 from the cash drawer.
When Miller returned, money and
man were gone and there is absolute
ly no clew.
Mr. Miller had just balanced his
cash for that day and with checks and
currency was preparing to make a
remittance to the company. He had
sealed the currency and checks in an
envelope and placed the package in
the money drawer while he complet-
ed his work at the station.
Then something called his attention
outside the Office and the robbery oc-
Cured .. =.
The officials of the company are up
in the air. They refuse to make any
statements, but they evidently sus-
pect someone around the place. 1t is
possible some one may have seen Mr..
Miller placing the money in the draw
er and the temptation was too great
for him.
Cashier G. H. Miller is we'll known
here and highly respected, and is all
broken up over the affair. Agent D.
J. Vance has sent a detailed state
ment of the affair to the head office.

STRIKE LEADER INDICTED
Sequel to Packing House Strike In
Sioux City.

Sioux City, Sept. 16.-Charles Nc
CURE, the strike leader of the pack.
ing house employees, and Frank Game,
a saloon keeper in the packing house
district, were indicted by the grand
Jury yesterday on a charge of con-
spiracy. The two men were arrested
and admitted to bonds of $1,000.
The claim against the two men is
that during the progress Of the recent
strike they conspired against the To-
cal Cudahy packing company's plant
by influencing men from going to
work by posting pickets and by gen.
eral disorder in connection with the
strike melees.
The return, Of the grand jury was
no great surprise, as a secret charge
had been hanging over Mcclure
charging him with conspiracy He
Is said to have been aware of its ex-
istence.
Game was charged in justice court
with assault with intent to kill Dep
atty Sheriff Huntley few months ago,
and was out on $4,000 bonds, until, a
few weeks ago, when he was dis.
charged.
Mcclure is said to have been an
inmate of the Illinois state peniten.
tiary three years ago, when he served
| a two year sentence for manslaughter.

LAWS UNSATISFACTORY
Improvement Being Made-Sentment
Being Formed.

Des Moines, Sept 15.-Chairman
troll, in a valuable and exhaustive pa
per read before the quarterly confer
ence yesterday, pointed out how the
state laws of Iowa in regard to penal
and reformatory questions are unsat-
isfactory, but public sentiment is be-
ing awakened. He gave an exhaus-
tive resume of legislation in all states
on the subject of reformation of per-
sons and a plain statement of the in
determinate sentence plan in vogue in
some states with its notifications.
THE current of modern penal leg
isla1ion flows strongly in preventive
and reformatory channels" he stated.
'The Elmira reformatory was estab-
lished in 1876. The practical results of
the system have fully justified it. A
careful study Of the statistics shows
that of more than 1000 prisoners
! who were committed to the institu-
ton and have been discharged there
from, about eighty in every hundred
have been lawabiding since their re-
lease and most of them have become
useful citizens.
In Iowa the lndetermlnate sentence
is not only in force to a limited extent,
but the success with which it has
been applied is a strong argument in
| favor of it's extension. Thus far it is
authorized only for boys and girls
committed to the industrial schools.
A committee was appointed at the
last session of the legislature to con-
| slider the ACCESSIBILITY of extending
the principle. On the whole the in
stitution in Iowa is not discouraging.
Earnest men and women are already
enlisted in the work of reforming our
penal system, others are becoming iu-
terested and with earnest and contin-
uous effort we shall soon have a penal
system planned on scientific basis
designed to protect the young from
bad associations and lead them in
| WAYS Of right living"
