Curious Laws That Prevailed In tho
Florcntine Republic.
The Florentine republic had unique
metAod Of dealing with Its too ardent
democrats. In 1903 the state passed
the famous Magma Charta of Flor
ence." to curb the cruelty and rapaclty
Of the lawless mobiles, who, In defiance
of the law courts, were accustomed to
Cog and torture their dependents at
will The act practically dlsfranchlsed
these titled harpies by clause which
excluded them from the signory-a
body in the state corresponding to the
British cabinet-unless they renounced
their nobility.
This curious provision prepared the
way for still more extraordinary
clause, which enacted that any member
of the democratic party who made
himself obnoxious to the government
and was by them declared to be guilty
of treason to the commonwealth" should
be given patent Of nobility and thus

Glass windows are known to have
existed at Pompeli as early as A. d.
TO- In the third century the windows
OF royal houses throughout Europe
were glazed. Windows Of co!ored glass
were placed In many French and Ital-
ian churches in GA, and the use of
glass became general in private houses
during the twelfth century The panes,
however, We're only three or four inches
square, and the material was so infe-
rior that while room was lighted, 1t
was often matter of some difficulty to
discern objects ON the outside through
the glass. For a long time windows In
England were subject CT taxation.

You Must
Sleep.

If you cannot, it is due to an
irritated or congested state of
the brain, which will soon de-
velope into nervous prostration.
Nature demands sleep, and
it is as important as food; it
is a part OF her building and
sustaining process. This period
Of unconsciousness relaxes the
mental and physical strain, and
allows nature to restore ex-
hausted vitality.
DR.. Miles Nervine brings
refreshing sleep, because it
soothes the irritation and re-
moves the congestion.
1t is also a nerve builder; it
nourishes and strengthens ev-
cry nerve in your body, and
creates energy in all the organs.
Nothing will give strength
and vitality as surely and
quickly as DR.. Miles Nervine.
During the past winter I had two
attacks OF LaGrippe which left mo
very weak. and in bad condition. I
was so nervous could not sleep. My
wife, after trying different remedies.
went for a doctor. The doctor was
out, and a neighbor recommended DIR.

WORK ON THE CUMBERLAND.
Operations Suspended on Orders From
Secretary Morton.

In accordance with Secretary Morton's
purpose to enforce compliance with the
new statute providing severe penalties
for expenditures in excess of appropria-
tions, orders have been issued suspending
work on the training ship Cumberland
under construction at the Boston navy
yard. 1t is probable that work on the
training ship Intrepid at the Mare Island
navy yard will be suspended in a few
days. The appropriations for naval con-
struct1on are running low, and it is inti-
mated that it may be necessary to sus-
pend work on the battle ship Connecti-
cut now building at the New York navy
yard in competition with the battle ship
Louisiana, which is being built by the
Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry
Dock Company.
Under the law any person expending
money in excess of an appropriation is
subject to summary removal from office
and may also be punished by fine of not
less than 500 or by Imprisonment for not
less than one month.

ITALIAN AMBASSADORS TRIP.
Will Examine Conditions for COLOMBIA
ton in Texas.

Baron Mayor des Planches, the Italian
ambassador, expects to leave Washington
early in April for Texas to make a thor
ough investigation of the conditions there
under which Italians from New York and
other crowded cities may settle and engage
in agriculture and truck farming. The am
bassador for long time has been studying
the conditions of his countrymen, especially
in New York, and he believes that the con-
gestion can be greatly relieved if they can
be coloniZed in the south, where the cli-
matte conditions correspond to those of
their native country, enabling them to con-
tinue their farming in their adopted home
After visiting many places in Texas and
comforting with the railroad officials about
the terms upon which small farms can be
sold to colonists the ambassador will come
back by way of Arkansas to visit Tonti
town. an italian settlement named in honor
of the pioneer Tonti, who was a companion
of La Sale.

THE ACTING CHAIRMAN
MR.. CORTELYOU NOT YET READY
TO MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT.

The political gossips now mentioning
Mr.. Charles F. BrooEer of Connecticut as the
probable acting chairman of the republican
now have the offer of the place under con-
sideration He is national committeeman
from Connecticut, and was a hard worker
at republican headquarters in New York
during the last campaign. Mr.. Brooker is
New England manufacturer and stockholder
in many business enterprises, as we'll as the
personal friend of the leading politicians of
his section.
Well-nformed politicians say that Mr..
Harry S. New of Indiana will not be made
acting chairman. For one reason he is said
to be inimical to Vice President Fairbanks,
and, although it is not the business of the
national committee to consult prospective
candidates for the presidency in such mat
ters, still it would be obviously appropriate,
it is said, to take cogniZance of the personal
and political relations existing between the
Vice President and a proposed acting chair
man.
These politicians go on to say that there's
a lot of fuss and feathers any way over
this acting craftsmanship, for it will be
only nominal office and should have no
bearing on the presidential prospects of
any one. The permanent chairman will
have to be selected by the national COM
rnittee when the next campaign is to be
fought, and it is not contended that an
acting chairman could do great deal for
Postmaster General Cortelyou today said
he was not ready to make announcement
concerning the selection of the acting
chairman.

to President Roosevelt for his prompt sig
nature. General Lee said:
II would be derelict in my duty not to
give expression to the satisfaction that fills
the heart of every confederate veteran for
the unanimity with which the national leg
islature passed the bill restoring the con-
federate battle flags to the several states
and the readiness with which the measure
was approved by the President. This action
is fresh evidence that there are now in our
grand country no sectional lines-no south,
no north, east or west, but that we are all
Americans devoted to one common cOun-
try. And l urge upon all parties north and
south who have colors in their possession
to return them at once to the state capi-
tolls
This action is unprecedented in the his
tory of southern confederate organizations.

their Tie Pass positions, hotly
pressed by the Japanese, and St.
Petersburg admits that even the
remnants of the army are in dan
