- on EieId Of waterIoo.

There was recently living in a town
IN Germany a woman who was born
actually on the field of Waterloo while
the battle was raging. Her mother,
an IrishwOman Of noble family, had
married a German officer and followed
him to the wars. She was present at
every battle in the Peninsula in which
he fought. Then she went into Bel
GUM, and on the night before Water
loo she, with another woman, lay out
for hours in the wet under trees and
hedges While the battle was still
raging she was taken Ill. and was car
ried into a shed. where her babe was
born. It was q terrible cradle for the
little one; it had been used as a field
hospital, and all around lay the shat
tered limbs which the surgeons had
amputated. But child and mother
throve. The baby was christened
Waterloo" and lived to marry and
settle down in Hanover.

Tent lie cures censumptIon.


A doctor in Denver some time ago
made some experiments with cOnsump-
tiYes. A tent colony was established
a little way out of Denver, and the
patients progressed fairly well during
the first part of the winter. But by
and by there was blizzard, and the
thermometer went down to 20 degrees
below zero, and then they began to
improve very fast. One woman cid
not seem to improve at all until the
temperature reached this mark, and
then she improved rapidly. She had
had no appetite, but that 20 degrees
below zero weather gave her an Ape
tite, which was an indication that the
body was beginning to work naturally,
that the assimilative processes were
being resumed, and from that time she
kept on improving.

those who do not comply will be de-

Governor General Trepoff and Min
lister of Finance KokOvseff issued a
proclamation which reveals the gov
ernment's plan for breaking the strike
throughout Russia.
The proclamation is conceived in a
paternal tone and points out that hon

knowledge of the existence Of the
proclamation was not general among
the workmen until they read it on the
bulletin boards, where many of them
angrily turned away, muttering re-
fusals to listen to the government S
promises. Others appeared to hesitate
regarding what course to pursue. The
workmen appear to lack leadership.
If, as the authorities believe, the ma
jority of the worllmen resume work
the strike movement will be broken
and then the only thing feared is
recrudescence of mb-throwing. The
government is also encoura ged by the
comparative quiet at Moscow, and they
hope no serious trouble will occur
there.
At Saratoff the men in the railway
shops and other establishments have
gone out, but no disorder is reported.
Dispatches from London to the AS
sociated Press say that the British
foreign office and the press take
gloomy view of the situation and that
in the exaggerated dispatches printed
there is revealed the poorly disguised
hostility of England to Russia.
The Russian government is striving
to convince the world that the up
heaval in st. Petersburg is Nihilistic.
It is also striving to convince the Rus
sian moderates that the industrial re-
volt is being encouraged by Russia's
arch enemies, England and Japan.
The situation, industrial and politi-
cal, is beset with unusual difficulties
for the Russian government. 1t is
authoritatively reported that so per
cent of the capital invested in the
great manufacturing and kindred ven
lures of Russia is eign-eoming

England
The foreign capitalists have their

hand, that the Russian government has

and on the other that the foreign en-
ployers have been mercilesS in their
treatment of Russian employees.

vides for Court.
The bill to regulate railroad rates
which was prepared by Chairman
Hepburn of the Committee on Inter
state and Foreign Commerce, after
consultation with the President and
Attorney General Moody, was lntro-
duced in Congress.
The bill provides for the abolition OF
the present Interstate Commerce Com
mission and itsre-creation with mem
bership of seven. The members are to
be appointed by the President. 1t also
provides for a Court of Commerce. to
which all appeals from the decisions
of the Interstate Commission are to
be made. This court will be made up
of five Circuit Court judges, who snail
be assigned to the Court Of Commerce
by the Chief Justice Of the United
States Supreme Court. The new Court
of Commerce will have all the powers
of Circuit Court, and any appeal
which may be taken from its decision
must be to the Supreme Court Of the
United States. The Interstate Com
merce Commission is given power to
fix a reasonable rate on complaint OF
either shipper or railroad. The de-
cision may be appealed, if at all, to
the Court of Commerce within thirty
days, and if the Court Of Commerce
makes no decision the rate fixed by the
Interstate Commission becomes opera
tive of it's own force within sixty days
from the time it is given. The penalty
fixed for violation is $4,000 day fine.
The President is authorized to ap-
point additional Circuit Court judges
to fill vacancies caused by assigning
judges to the Court of Commerce. The
Interstate Commerce Commission Is
given authority to modify or suspend
any rate it has made, OF reopen any
case at any time.
1t is said that the measure is salts

advisers and the President will favor
it's enactment, provided no weak spots
be found in it, no snag or fatal defect
which would render the entire act in
effective or to lead to it's condemna-

Again, the workingmen and the
