Many Change Faith.

Since the PRONUNCIATION of the En-
peror's ukase concerning liberty of wor-
ship and abolishing the religious dsa-
bilities of the Roman Catholic and other
Christian communities $4,000 persons
are reported TO have left the Russian
Church for the Roman Church in the
governments of Siedloe aud Lublin, Po-
land. In one village of $50 inhabitants
CTS have changed their faith. The au-
thorities of the Russian Church are TAX
ing stringent measures to prevent these
assertions. One order in the Russian
Church, called the Brotherhood of the
Holy Virgin, has issued violent mani
festO bitterly inveighing against Poles
and Roman Catholics.

Mountaineering In Poland.

London, May 24.-The correspondent
of the Central News, at st. Petersburg,
wires that a bomb throwing occurred at
Seidlac, a town about fifty miles from
Warsaw, at midnight, in which master
of police and a number of citizens were
injured. The bomb-thrower waited for
the police master on the yerauda OF a
house until the officer approached on his
return from public entertainment.
Twenty -four people were injured in the
explosion, including the police master.
Five of the victims are in serious con-
dition. The veranda from which the
bomb was thrown was wrecked and win
dows in all the buildings in the vicinity
we're shattered.

Ohio Republicans.

Columbus, o., May 24.-The Ohio
republican convention opened here to-
day. 1t is the largest gathering Of the
kind in the history OF the State. Secre-
tary of War Taft has been selected chair
man of the convention, with which goes
the sounding Of the keynote. Governor
Herrick, United States Senator Dick
and leader George B. Cox, long since
picked the ticket and practically made
the platform before the delegates got
mere. The platform and slate will be
adopted tomorrow. The platform will
praise the President and stand by his
Administrative acts; will adhere to pro-
lectiye tariff, and make no declaration
Tor revision; no specific utterance on
Panama, and will stand stout for the
State administration of Governor Her
rick. Governor Myron I, Herrick, will
be renOminated.
A significant thing about the conven-
ton is the absence of Senator Foraker
ard Congressman Grosvenor. Foraker
sent word that he was too busy 90 come
and for the first time in years Grosvenor
was left off his home delegation from
Athens county. GrOsvenor some time
ago said Foraker would be the logical
candidate of Ohio for the presidency.

ANOTHER blow has been dealt the
steel trusts monopoly in the manufact-
ture of armament for the navy by the
Midvale Steel Company, of Phlladel-
phia. When bids for guns for the battle
ship New Hampshire and armored
cruisers Montana and North Carolina
were opened, Monday, at the Navy De-
partment. it was found that the Midvale
Company had underbid the Bethlehem
Steel Company, the trust concern, by a
total of 1924, 696. 1t is now probable
that another bitter fight will ensue be
tween the trust and its Philadelphia
rival similar to that which followed the
Midyale's low bid for armor plate during
the last session of Congress. 1t is pre-
sumed, however tina. the Midvale peopl9
learned something of the trusts methods
by its previous experience, and that it
will profit thereby in its present fight,
perhaps to the discontinue of its power

representative TAwNEY told the
President yesterday he could not conceive
how the government could properly do
what was prohibited to its citizens-that
is. purchase articles in the cheapest
markets of the world without paying
tariff duties. 1t the government buy
abroad, what difference does it make
whether it pay itself duty or not? On
certain commodities the tariff law pro-
vides for free importation for the benefit
of the government. But in the case OF
the Panama canal supplies, it is not
necessary that the government should
buy foreign articles; it is only necessary
that it should insist on getting as low
prices as are offered to foreigners. The
Philadelphia Record asks: "Will Mr..
Tawney object to that?''

PhiIadeIphia's Municipal Troubles

Philadelphia, May "a. - Develop
mems in the big municipal shakeup fol-
lowing the gas lease dispute which had
its beginning yesterday in the summary
dismissal of David Smyth and Peter Cos
telo from the direciorships of public
safety aud public works after they had
declined to tender the mayor other than
qualified resignation followed fast on
the heels of one another this morning.
The deposed director ofpublic safety has
been granted an injunction against his
successor, while the city solicitor has
taken umbrage at the mayor in employ
ing additional counsel. A rumor is cur
rent to the effect that Thomas DOlan,
president of the United Gas Improve
ment Company, may issue a statement
declining to accept the gas lease as
amended and thus relieve the situation
of the principal cause of dispute.
The restraining writs were served
upon the Mayor and Directors at 1910,
and the two latter Immediately ceased
their efforts to conduct the business of
the offices. They admitted, as did the
Mayor, that not ouly had their hands
been effectively tied until Monday, and
that the entire business of the city was
halted for the same length of time.
Acting under advice of counsel the
deposed directors, Smyth and Costello,
will this afternoon return to the offices
which they vacated Yesterday and will
seek to resume duties, holding that under
the city charter they remain in Office
until their successors qualify by confir-
nation Of councils. This confirmation
will not be granted and another legal
test mimi will thus be raised.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char.
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature
but few realize its value when taken
into the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not q
drug at all, hat simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking. drinking or after eating on
lens or other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels: it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison Of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoa! III cue
form or another, but probaly the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
willow charcoal, and other harmless
antseptics in tablet form or rather in
the form of large. pleasant tasting
lozenges. the charcoal being mixed
with honey
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
ton Of the general health, better COM
Elexion. sweeter breath and pure
blood. and the beauty of it is, that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal says: q ad,
a wise Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stem,
ach and bowels and to clear the
complexion and purify the breath,
mouth and throat: I also believe the
| Yer is greatly benefited by the daily
use Of them; they cost but twenty-five
cents a box at drug stores. and III
though in some sense patent prepa-
ration. yet I believe I get more and
better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges than in any of the ordinary

Says Heavenly Homes are Apartments
Rev. Ezra r. Sanford, pastor of the
North Baptist church, has discovered
scriptural foundation for the belief
that the modern aprtment-houses are
the kind Of structures all good people
vii! find lining the golden streets OF
heaven. In the gospel OF ST. John
ccurs the sentence, I'm my f,thcr's
house there are many mansions
Now. according to Mr.. Sanford. the
word translated from the original
text as "nansions" should be real
apartments.
Among other things he said: "'The
janitor of an apartment house stands
at the entrance TO admit only those
,;ho have a right to enter. The cor
rect Judge Of the earth declares who
shall hear come ye. blessed of my
Father or depart Therefore jan,
itors should be Christian like. Let
them ask the question. What would
Jesus do?
The old brown stone houses of
the Ninth ward. long famous as
residential section, are fast giving way
10 apartment-houses. What can this
be but a conception of heaven? The
conception of heaven in Johns revel-
alton as a city becomes centralized
in one great house with many apart
ments."
