neys had made great efforts to secure
his and Barrett's conviction.
The case was before the court nine
teen days, and the government produced
a great mass of testimony. Gen. Tyner,
as Assistant Attorney General for the
Postoffice Department, passed on bond
investment companies and other concerns
which might be barred from the mails.
Barrett, after serving in this branch Of
the department, resigned to act as coun-
sci for such concerns as might be IN
trouble and engage his services. In this
business he practiced before Gen. Tyner,
and the uncle was charged with having
favored his nephew and the latter's cli-
ents in, his decisions.
Gen. Tyner, who is IS years old, has
had long record Of public service. He
was a member of Congress from Indiana
from 1869 to 1875 and was made Post
master General under Grant after serv-
ing as Second and First Assistant Post
master General. He was Assistant At
torney General for the PostofI1ce De-
partment from 1889 to 1893 and was re-
appointed to the same position in 1897.
His service was continuous until the
charges against him forced his resigna-
ton year ago.

cHlNATHE DANGER SPOT.
"Firhting Bob Evans Talks of the
Crisis in the Far East.

Il
Rear Admiral Evans, who has been
on a cruise in the Far East, returned to
this country the other day on the battle
ship Kentucky after record breaking
trip around the world. Perhaps the fact
that he had been at sea and did not Know
OF the strict neutrality order of President
Roosevelt accounted for the frank talk
the admiral gave on the war between
Russia and Japan. He was asked:
as there any danger of the Chlrese
taking up arms in aid of the Japan
ese?"
1T is the most probable and at the
same time the most terrible Chlng | can
think Of he replied. Just that There
is feeling Of unrest among all classes
II would need but little to make those
people rise up against the Russians.
IF that should occur Russia at once
would march an army down into iekin'
which would probably mean the begin
ming of a great European war, 1t IS 10
the best interests of the world TO con-
fine the fighting to the two nations III
volyed. For the present, at least, II IS
y TOSS of a coin which is on top. But II
tbe Chinese made n move it would draw
ot least three other nations into the war;
Nobody then could predict the outcome.

II is hardly too much to say that
live Japanese are lnvincible. The only
way to stop them when they receive
definite orders to go ahead is to kill
them. And from present indications
tbp only way Russia will be able to
whip them in this war will be to kill
them all. As long rs there is a live
japanese army anywhere in Manchu-
ria 1t is apt to be victorious.

OPTHALMOLOGY

is not all there is to NEUROL-
OGY, and for the benefit of those
who are apt to confound me with
an optician, and are under the i'm
preston that my method of treat
ment consists only in the fitting
of glasses, l wish to state that I
do not prescribe glasses in every
instance-that when I do, I do not
give the proper and final correc-
ton the first time you receive
treatment. GLASSES of them
selves, cure nothing. When prop
erly fitted, however, they stop a
leak in the Nervous System that
nothing else can.
Neurology then applied-NA-
TURE does the curing.
I, myself, have no curative prop
critics, neither do l claim to cure.
l am simply Natures assistant. I
measure up the system, see that
directions are followed, in which
case guarantee Nature to restore
you to health, or refund your mon
ey.
