Niaaara Water Power.

The commissioners of Queen Victo-
ria park, on the Canadian side of Nj
agara falls. show proper sense of the
condition now affecting that majestic
cataract. They have just issued their
nineteenth annual report and laid 1t
before the Ontario Legislature, set;
ting forth that halt must be called
in the granting of franchises at the
falls and that too many have been
given away already. Three OF them
are now in the possession Of private
companies and fourth, permitting the
creation of 100000 more horsepower
from the Chippewa river, is under con-
sideration. This will make an aggre'
gate on the Canadian side of 475,OO0
horsepower which the commissioners
think should not, at the present time,
be exceeded. If more are to be given
hereafter they should cost the grantees
more. and in particular care should be
taken that the shores above and be-
low the falls be not marred by un,
slightly buildings.

Transvaal Constitution.

London, April 26.-The draft OF the
new Transvaal constitution was issued
yesterday. 1t provides for legisla-
tive assembly consisting of the lieu
tenant governor, six to nine official
members and thirty to thirty-five
elected members. Every burgher OF
the late South African republic is en-
titled to vote for members of the first
volksraad, as well as all white males
of British birth occupying premises at
annual rental of not less than $50, or
having capital to the value of $500, un-
less convicted of treason since May 81,
1902, or of murder unless they have OBJ
tanned free pardon.
commission will divide the Trans
vaal into electoral districts. The de-
bates in the assembly will be carried
on in English, but the president of the
volksraad may permit member to use
the Dutch language. Financial meas
ures must be recommended to the as

Radlum Solution for Cancer.

Experiments now under way at the
Flower hospital in New York City are
reported by the World to indicate the
discovery Of an almost certain cure for
cancer. 1t consists of new method
for the application of radium. Won
derful things were expected of radium,
and its discovery by Professor Curie
and his wife had barely been an
nounced when leading scientists be-
gan striving to find way in which the
new force could be used to destroy dis
ease germs. All these practically
failed. Now, however. a chemist of
New York claims to have succeeded in
dissolving radium and that the result
ing solution exerted all the activity of
the pure radium.
Surgeons and physicians Of the
Flower hospital staff decided to give
the solution trial and selected a wo-
man eighty-two years old. who was
dying from cancer on the instep Of
her left foot.
Six days after the treatment began,
the doctors say. the cancer dropped off
and showed healthy nesh beneath.
Nothing remained but to heal the It's
sue, which was finally accomplished,
although the treatment is still being
continued.

FIVE BEARS ARE KILLED
BY PRESIDENT AND HIS PARTY
Big Record for Two Days Shooting
Party Camped in Best Bear
Country in Colorado.


Denver, April ga Republican spe-
cial from Glenwood Springs last night
says: President Roosevelt's hunting
trip has been crowned with success far
beyond his expectations, or those of
the most sanguine of his guides. Three
bears were killed by the party to-day,
and two yesterday, one by the Presi-
dent, and one by DR.. Alexander Lam
bert.
P. B. Stewart of Colorado Springs,
one of the Presidents hunting compan-
ions, arrived here tonight, accompan-
led by Courier Chapman. They
brought the story of the hunt. The
killing of the three bears was tele-
phoned to them and they understood
that Mr.. Roosevelt brought down two
of them, but the details are lacking.
The party is almost snowbound in
its present location and no attempt
will be made to cross the divide. Fif-
teen feet of snow is on the ground on
the other side and any effort to reach
,Redstone would be futile. The hunt
ers are satisfied, however, for they
have reached the center of what the
guides say is the best bear country in
Colorado.
Bobcats are thick in the country now
being hunted, so plentiful, in fact, that
many are allowed to escape without a
shot being fired in their direction. Sew
eral fine skins have been taken, how
ever.
The bear killed by the President yes
terday was of the brown variety, not
so heavy, but furnishing a much finer
pelt than the first animal killed. One
of the bears killed to-day is said to
have been a grizzly, but this cannot be
verified.
Mr.. Stewart reached the Hotel Colo
RADIO at o'clock tonight. He was still
dressed in his hunting clothes. He
looked brown and rugged and reported
that every man in the party Is in the
best of health.
1t was within an area of seven miles
| that all five of the bears were killed.
This spot is about sixteen or eighteen
miles from camp and every animal
gave the dogs and hunters a long
| chase. All of them freed, which en-
abled the hunters to kill them without
further accident to the dogs. Thus far
only one has been killed. 1t was killed
by the FIRST bear shot.
President Roosevelt is living in "a
cabin on the abandoned Bum home
stead on the West Divide creek, quar-
ters that are remarkably comfortable
considering the character of the coun-
try. 1t is likely that the party will
stay there for the entire hunt.
News of the outside world is scarce
in the Presidents camp. Once in ev-
cry four or five days papers are sent
in, but these are twelve hours or more
old when they reach New Castle.
1.-THE absence of information of cur
rent events is greatly felt by all, par
ticularly by the President" said Mr..
Stewart tonight. "But then he went
into the wilds to hunt and he has to
make the best of it. We have been
living we'll. Supplies are holding out
we'll and now bear steaks will be on
the bill of fare regularly. No ice box
is needed up there to keep the meat
fresh. The camp is situated at an al
titude of about 5000 feet and there is
deep snow on every side"

The Rird-Eatins Spider.

The arri yal in London of specimen
of the bird-eating spider calls renewed
attention to little known insect that is
more powerful than the famous taran-
tula. 1t is the largest spider known,
and in its tropical South American
home it spins very formidable webs for
catching humming birds and finches in
stead of flies. When the enormously
strong threads are spun across little
frequented roads they often strike the
faces of travellers with great violence.
The body of the spider is often three
inches long and as large as hens egg
and it's horrible aspect is increased by
the long, hairy legs.

Every housekeeper should know
that If they will buy Defiance Cold

will save not only time, because It

each package contains 16 Ozone full

cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
12-oz. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts In Defiance.

FULTON CENTENNIAL.
Ono Hundred Years Since First Steam.
boat Trip.

1t seems hardly possible that It is
less than hundred years since Rob
ert Fnlton sent his pioneer steamboat
up the waters OF the Hudson. But the
announcement of a proposed Fulton
centennial has sent the newspaper
men TO their cyclopedias, and there is
no doubt about the facts.
That was not the first steamboat, to
be sure. for four years before the Cler-
mont was launched Fulton himself
had experimental with small steam
boat In the Seine in France, and other
experiments dated back to 1876. But
the trip Of the Clermont is justly re-
garded as the beginning of successful
steam navigation, and the name of
Fulton justly heads the list of invent
ors in this department of human prog
ress.
1t was Fulton, too, in 1915, who con-
structed the first steam war vessel, a
majestic craft of thirty-eight tons
displacement. yet hardly capable of
meeting on equal terms such a pres
ent-day battleship as the Connecticut
or Louisiana of 10000 tons each.
And 1t was not until 1919 that the
first steamer crossed the Atlantic, sail
ihS iioh odVdnudu, 6eOrBld, 10 IiN-
erpool in twenty-six days, during eigh-
teen of which the paddlewheels were
in use.
The proposed centennial OF the Cler-
mont's trip is proper observance of
an important historical occasion, and
the honor paid to Robert Fulton is
worthily bestowed upon an American
whose ingenuity and energy wrought
most powerfully and beneficially for
the benefit of mankind and the prog
ress of the American continent that
gave him birth.-Pueblo Chieftain.

One Who Broke Down from Six Years Of

"I had been teaching in the city
schools steadily for six years, " said Miss
James, whose recent return to the work
from which she was driven by nervous
collapse has attracted attention. "They
were greatly overcrowded, especially in
the primary department of which had

of two teachers. The strain was too
much for my nerves and two years ago
the crisis came.

seemed to me then that I was the most
miserable woman ON earth. was tor
tured by nervous headaches, worn out by
inability to sleep, and had 80 little
blood that was as white as chalk.
"After my active life, it was hard to
bear idleness, and terribly discouraging
to keep paying out the savings of years
for medicines which did me no good.'
"How did you get back your health ?"
"a bare chance and lot of faith led
me to cure. After had suffered for
many months, and when was on the
very verge of despair, 1 happened to read
an account of some cures effected by
DIR. Williams Pink Pills. The state

how felt assured that these pills would
help me. Most people, think. buy only
one box for trial, but purchased six
boxes at once, and when 1 had used
them up, was indeed well and had no
need of more medicine.

stored my appetite, gave me strength to

enthusiastic about their merits. Sound

A Heavy Fine.

Under the Elkins law, any railroad
company which pays rebates in any
form. or any shipper who accepts
them, is liable to fine of from $1,000
to $4,000, upon conviction. 1t also
prohibits the carrying of freight at
less than the published tariffs. The
Interstate Commerce Commission is
empowered to detect and prosecute
violators of this statute. President
Knapp of the Commission states that
since this law was passed, rebate pay
ing has been as rare as forgery.
