PHILIPPINE NATIVES
ALARM TILE TRAINMEN
Savages Throw Their Clothing Away
and Then Develop Symptoms
of Pneumonia

dred members Of the savage tribes Of
the Philippine Islands have arrived and
have been placed in that section Of the
Worlds Fair known as the Quartet de
Filipino.
On the trip from Tacoma they gave
the railway crews considerable con-
Germ by the manner in which they di-
vested themselves of clothing. The
semi-civilized natives persisted in
throwing their articles of clothing
from the car windows and when they
arrived in st. Louis many of them
wore blankets, hurriedly furnished by
the railroad company. The sudden
rigorous change in the weather de-
veloped symptoms of pneumonia in a
large majority. One member of the
tribe was taken to the hospital in a
serious condition

ANTI GAINS
SEAT IN REICHSTAG
Dissatisfaction of Socialists Results in
Failure to Vote to Fill a
Vacancy.


Failure to Vote to Fill a
Vacancy.
BERLIN, March 26.-The Socialists
lost a Reichstag seat, that of Chop
pau, Saxony, yesterday to an anti
Semitic. The vacancy was due to the
death of Herr Rosenow, who won the
seat in 1898 and was reelected in 1903
by 3740 majority. The Socialist can
didate, Herr Pinkau, has now been
defeated by 1000 votes, owing to the
disaffection of Socialist voters because
the National Committee interfered
with the local management of the
campaign.
The district leaders unanimously
nominated former Pastor Goehre, who
had resigned another seat in Septem-
ber, owing to Herr BebePs attacks on
him at the Dresden convention. But
the national leaders, after Herr Goehre
had begun a vigorous campaign, pro-
nounced against his candidacy and
forced his retirement. The Socialist
voters as a result became disgusted
and did not vote.

STOLEN MONEY IN THE ASH PAN

Lillian Russell to the county Jail
for petit larceny" so read the COM
mitment in the case of the state against
Lillian Oliver. In the first part of
the commitment the sheriff was in
structed to keep Lillian Oliver in dur
ance vile on account of her inability
to pay a fine of $25. Later, on the
same sheet appeared the name of Lii
liam Russell.
The deputy sheriff came in a hurry
to find his other prisoner. "Ye gods,
hath she escaped he cried as he rush
ed into Justice Suckers Office
"Where is this other one? She is not
unstairs." That's what comes of hav-
ing million people talking to you
when You are trying to do something"
said the clerk. "There were a bunch
of people in here asking about some
Russell case and l got it mixed"
SO it appears that Lillian Oliver will
have to serve her sentence alone. She
pleaded guilty to stealing purse with
S2S in it from the Crescent store. But
the money did her no good. After her
arrest she confessed to Mr.. Kimball
and Sheriff Doust. The money was
in an ash pile back of her room. Alas
an. alackl The ever vigilant ash man
had carried the ashes away. Lillian
promised to repay the money and
she has finally succeeded. Owing to her
repentance she was given a very light
sentence.

NO MAN Or WOMAN
CAN HAVE DYsPEP1IA
And Still BE Agreeable, Attractive
and Popular-A Certain Cure In
Reach of ALL


There is nothing that will put you
to the front so rapidly in the business
or social world as a cheerful DISPOSE
ton and a pleasant appearance. Other
things being equal people will go out
of their way to give the fellow a
lift who always wears a cheerful
countenance. The man or woman
with cranky disposition and sour
face will always meet with an indif-
ferent If not a chilly reception. The
commercial traveller, who Is the rec
ogniKed business barometer, appreci-
ates better than any one the value
of this rule and governs his actions
accordingly.
Dyspepsia destroys all the agree
able qualities that enter into a man
or woman's makeup. 1t Is almost
a human impossibility for anyone
with severe case of dyspepsia to
look pleasant. The continuous, mis-
cradle, cast-down feeling is bound to
make itself shown in the appearance
and conversation.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
sufferers certain cure. They are so
recognized all over the world The
cures they have brought about and
the happiness they have caused and
the suffering they have relieved has
made their name household word in
all the English-speaking world.
The reason that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are a certain cure Is that
they are natural cure. There is
nothing to prevent them curing They
contain the essential ingredients Of
the digestive fluids of the stomach
and simply do the identical work of
the stomach, relieving that weakened
organ and permitting 1t to rest and
recuperate. Could anything be more
simple or natural? They are bound
to cure They can not help them
selves. 1t is just like putting a new
stomach into a man-if that were
possible-and letting the old one go
off on vacation. Rest is what 1t
needs. Nature will do her own work
of restoration. never fear.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at SO cents a
box. All druggists means all drug
gists. They have become so necessary
to the people that the druggist simply
has to keep them anyway. There are
| other remedies that he can make
much more money on If he could sell
them. but he can't. He will not take
chances on losing his customers by
not always having on hand a supply
Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

BALL
WILLIAMS SAYS NEW BASEBALL
PARK WILL BE CHOSEN IN A
FEW DAYS-REILLY HAS PEN
NANT WINNERS.
(By Jimmy Cullins.)

I'VE will give out the location of
the new baseball park to the public
some time next week." announced
President Williams Of the Spokane
team this morning. Then he became
gay and went on to tell where it
would be located.
Just say that the park will be
on the roof of the Empire State block
and let it go at that"
Williams is inclined to become
humorous, but park or no park, he
and Manager Reilly are gathering
around them bunch of baseball
artists that on paper look to be pen
nant winners by several lengths.
Spokane only missed the pennant by
n few games last season, and as the
lineup this coming year has been con-
siderably strengthened the purple rag
looks like Spokane's.
While williams is making the talk
about the new park being located on
the roof of the Empire State building
it might be suggested that he take a
tumble and have it on Cannon hill,
somewhere he would not need to
build bleachers or grand stand and
just have the fans sit around on the
hilltops and watch the game through
burned glass.
One of the sites offered the team
is located just this side of the car
barns of the Washington Water Pow
err company, but it is understood this
site is not as desirable as the other

club by the Graves people.

Much of the political gossip of the
hour centers about the candidacy of
d. T. Ham for the nomination for
governor The chairman OF the
county republican central committee.
who is credited with being one of the
most popular republicans of the
county, refuses to say, at least for
publication, whether he will enter the
race as an opposition candidate to
Governor Mcbride. In the past few
days special pressure has been
brought to bear on Mr.. Ham to induce
him to be candidate. When asked
this morning he said he had not made
up his mind definitely and had moth
ing to say at the present time. Some
of the leading politicians of the city
say, however. that Mr.. Ham has told
them that he would not enter the
race. This statement comes so
straight that it would seem to indi-
cate that he has determined to stick
TO his first statements made some
weeks ago and to remain out of it.
Others say. however that he will yet
enter the race A decision may come
today or tomorrow.
Mcbride States.
Politicians are almost as anxious
TO know who from Spokane county
will be favored with the endorsement
of the Mcbride forces for positions
on the state ticket as they are to
learn Mr.. Hams intentions. Some
claim the Mcbride ticket is made up,
but others deny it. If it is determin
ed upon those who know are keep
ing the information to themselves.
That it may not be settled is indicat-
ed by the fact that so many different
states are ascribed to the Mcbride
people.
All these states have had the name
of Councilman Joseph B. Lindsey for
the position of lieutenant governor.
1t is strongly denied recently, how
ever that Mr.. Lindsey will attempt
to secure the position. He himself
will merely say he is a candidate for
reelection to the lower house of the
legislature.
Post on Railroad Commission.
That Frank Post of the law firm of
Post, Avery & Higgins will be given
a position on the railroad commission,
If one is created, is asserted general
ly. One slate credited to the Nc
Bride people is, Lindsey for lieuten-
ant governor, Frank T. Post for
position on the railroad commission.
Herman d. Crow for the supreme
court and Charles P. Lund for con-
gress.
Lund for Congress.
Mr.. Lund as candidate for con-
gress is not a probability. He might
permit the use of his name to
strengthen the Mcbride forces or to
