The state is doing what it can to
make up the loss suffered by reason
of cold winters that have killed
practically all of the Ohio quail
Game Warden Porterfeld has just
liberated 135 Alabama quail in various
sections of the State and they will be
protected and allowed to breed in the
hope of stocking the State in a
measure with this hardy little game
bird. The Alabama bird Is not quite
as large as the Ohio bird and is a
little lighter in color. The little
strangers have generally located
where let go and they will be watched
with interest. This has been a sue
cessful experiment, much more so
than former attempts to plant quail.

Originality is the salient feature of
"We're All So Much Alike" by Will
Payne, in the May McClure's. The
story opens 10 Chicago police court,
where the heroine is discovered on the
witness stand, testifying to many
things calculated to bring grievous
modification to her ultra respectable
parents, and the newness never abates
even while this strong-minded young
person proves finally the truth of the
story's title by surrender at last to
masculine persuasion. 1t is pretty
story, told with finished art.

These Russian names are queer
enough, especially in those cases where
they are really not Russian at all, or
maybe a mixture of Russian and Ger
man. Such is the name Kleinmichael,
born of the noble family whose palace
in St. Petersburg Mr. Meyer of Boston,
the new ambassador to the czlr's
government, has just hired. Klein
means small; and SO we have the
family name of Smallmichael, or per-
haps "Litle-Mike" for short. Then
there is the general with the purely
German name-Rennenkampf. Trans
late into our tongue he is General
Running-fght or Racing-battle-per-

General Hot-foot, in which case, in
view of recent events of the name
would be far from misfit

The discussion of tainted money"
brings out the fact that the prince of
Monaco, owner of the greatest gam.
bling ablishment in the world, con.
tributes regularly $4,000 a year
towards the payment of the salary
of the bishop of Monaco and other
large sums for support of the cathe-
dral. In fact the cathedral was re.
built by the greatest of gamblers and
he has always been strong supporter
of the churches. The subject of
"tainted money" has not been raised
in this case.

Denver Republican: This era of
agricultural expansion has just
started. Then, too, there is still
plenty of new land being occupied.
There are no less than three Indian
reservations in Montana, Wyoming
and Utah slated for opening before
the fall of 1906. A young man who
gets claim on either of these reser-
vations is independent for life. There
are no such opportunities for land
getting in the East, where every foot
of ground has been under private
ownership for years, and where land
is held at a high valuation. The young
man in the East finds his opportunities
confined to those of business, and even
in this there Is much more competi.
ton to meet than in the West, where
the thrush of new population makes
new opportunities in all lines. From
the present outlook the next ten years
will be the most prosperous and pro.
gressive decade the West has ever
known. Fortunate will be the Eastern
young men who are wise enough to
take Horace Greeley's advice at this
day, and to grow up with a growing
country.

 Autos, Wagons, Floats, Etc, for
 Which Prizes are Offered-Prizes on
 Exhibition at J. Johnson & Sons
 Store.
 Joseph Johnson, the popular Church street clothier, who is also one of the most popular residents of the Savin Rock cottage colony, was among the promoters of the illumination plan last Tuesday night, which proved so suc- cessful, and yesterday it was an nounced that the cottagers had taken up another suggestion of his with much enthusiasm, This is a general shore il- lumination.

 All the cottagers along Beach street and the nearby streets, it is expected, will participate in the event with en- thusiasm. They will decorate their cottages and lawns with Chinese and Japanese lanterns. and all who have boats will illuminate them also. Seve- ral boatlI; parties will be entertaine l near shore, and the number of harto and guitar artists who will participate will challenge a college glee club. The affair will transform the shore at Savin Rock into a Venetian scene, which will be entrancing, to say the least. Music will be one ofthe prominent features of the entertainment
 It will be gala night at the west shore, and the visions of old time sum- mer fetes at Savin Rock, which have since been neglecte dalmost entirely and left to cottagers at other shore places to initiate, will be easily recalled to those among the present residents who asw the resort years ago.
 There will be a large parada of autos and wagons, floats etc., all decorated with Chinese and Japanese lanterns flags, etc., so that the whole shore will 1 produce the effect of a night in Venice The Consolidated Railway company of. fer three beautiful prizes for the best 1 decorated auto wagon and float: first silver tea set five piecss): second, sil. yer ice pitcher with cup: third silver 1 loving cup. The prizes are on exhibi' tion at J. Johnson & Sons clothing store window. The judges will be rep resentativtes from all the newspapers.

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a kind of dyspepsia that is caused by 8 derangement of the female organism, and which, while it causes disturb ance similar to ordinary indigestion, cannot be relieved without medicine which not only acts as a stomach tonic, but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects also.
 As proof of this theory we call at- tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y., who was completely cured by Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound after every- thing else had failed. She writes:
 "For two years I suffered with dyspepsia which so degenerated my entire system that I was unable to attend to my daily duties. I felt weak and nervous, and nothing that late tasted good and it caused disturbance in my stomach. I tried different dyspepsia cures, but nothing seemed to help me. was ad- vised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound trial, and was happily surprised to find that it acted like fine tonic, and in few days began, to enjoy and properly digest my food. My recovery was rapid, and in five weeks I was well woman. have rec commended it to many suffering women."
