Presidents santo Domingo ues.ase

Washington, March 9.-The Senate
In executive session yesterday made
public the second message Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt on the Santo Domingo
treaty. The President urges imme-
diate action on the treaty. The mes
sage says:
MANY OF the debts alleged to be
due from Santo Domingo to outside
creditors unquestionably on their face
represent far more money than eqer
was actually given to Santo Domingo.
The proposed treaty provides for a
process by which impartial experts
will determine what debts are valid
and what are in whole or in part in
valid and will apportion accordingly
the surplus revenue available for the
payment of the debts.
"Santo Domingo grievously needs
the aid of a powerful and friendly ma
tion. This aid we are able and l trust
that we are willing to bestow. She
has asked for this aid, and the ex-
pressions of friendship repeatedly
sanctioned by the people and the gov
ernment of the United States warrant
her in believing that it will not be
withheld in the hour of her need"

SEVERELY PUNISHED.
Two Denver Election Thieves Get Pen.
itentiary Sentences.

Denver, March 12.-In the District
Court yesterday Judge Booth NJ. Ma
lone sentenced Michael Dowd and Pc
ter Miller each of them, to from three
to five years in the penitenuary for
crimes against the ballot. These men
were convicted of election crimes in
Ward 7. Precinct 2, at the polling place
at 1880 Josephine street. Theirs was
the celebrated case where the light
was put out and 31S fraudulent ballots
substituted.
The two men who appeared before
the Supreme Court In the first con-
tempt case arrogant and smiling, were
yesterday hailed before Judge Malone,
pale and trembling. Their bravado had
been broken by confinement in the
crowded jail and knowledge OF what
was to follow.
Judge Malone addressed the men for
twenty minutes. Among other things
he said: You may have thought that
you VIC re not only safe and secure, but
that you would also be rewarded. You
may have even been promised both
rewards and security. You may have
thought that what you did was not
bad, but smart. But assure you that
1t was not smart and that 1t was bad
very bad indeed.
You were not content to simply
stuff the ballot box, but you stole and
destroyed all of the 31S ballots cast
in your precinct. Your conduct was
bold, braZen and raw. If you had
stolen $31S of money or other common
chattels, you would be a felon and IL
able to punishment in the Penitentiary
for long series of years.
when you stole those 31S ballots,
you committed, in my opinion, a far
worse crime than the stealing of $31S
would or could be.
When you stole those 31S ballots,
you deprived 31S American citizens of
the most sacred right given them un-
der the law, and you endangered the
liberty of every man, woman and child
in this community.
Young men, there Is no politics in
this thing. A man who steals ballots
Is not Republican or Democrat. He
is a criminal and thief and a bad and
dangerous one. This is not politics.
No party which practices or knowingly
profits by election frauds can long sue
ceed or long endure.
THE man who puts up such a job
and furnishes the money therefor, is
as bad or worse than the man who
takes the money and does the job. 1t
is time that election thievery and cleo
ton frauds were stopped in this COM
munity. Violators of election laws
will find that there are some courts
which are not in sympathy with crimes
against the elective franchise or with
those guilty OF Them
The sentence in each case is as fol.
lows: That you be confined in the
State Penitentiary of the state of Col
orado, at hard labor, for a period OF
not less than three nor more than five
years. 1t is further ordered. adjudged
and decreed, that you pay one-half OF
all the costs expended or incurred by
the people in this prosecution, to be
taxed, and that execution issue there

CHASING KUR0PATKIN
JAPANESE PUSH THE PURSUIT
Most Of Russian Army Thought to Be
saved-But Retreat May Con-
tinue to Aarbin.

March 13.-While General Kuropat-
kin has apparently succeeded in saw
Ing more of his artillery than seemed
possible, his losses in men, ammuni-
ton and commissariat supplies In the
battle of Mukden are far greater than
earlier reports indicated. and even that
portion of his army which he succeeded
in extricating from the positions
around Mukden Is still in serious
danger.
The Japanese generals, realizing that
with little more speed they could
have inflicted crushing defeat on the
Russian army after the battle OF Lao
Yang, determined not to allow such an
opportunity to pass again, are follow
ing after the defeated and sorely tried
Russian forces.
While a small portion of Kuropat-
kin's army has reached Tie pass, the
greater part of those who escaped from
the battle of Mukden are still strug-

between twelve and sixteen miles from
their goal. with the Japanese, flushed
with victory and reinforced by fresh
men. harassing them from all sides.
Even should the remnant of the
army reach Tie pass, 1t is hardly pos
sible for it to make stand against the
overwhelming force opposing It, and
especially as the Russians must be
worn out and weakened by the loss OF
men, guns and ammunition.
ii is more likely that Kuropatkin will
fall back to Hardin with what he can
save and wait there for the reinforce
ments that St. Petersburg has already
promised him. A possible obstacle to
the plan is General kawamura's army.

Noxious coIorina in Butter.

Professor Wiley of the Bureau OF
Chemistry at Washington, who is con
Quoting the adulterated food expert
ments, complains that he is utterly un-
able to procure for his purpose any un
colored butter. He also denounced the
use of the coal tar dyes with which
butter is colored, saying that they
"overburden the kidneys" This is an
instructive comment on the United
States laws which prohibit the color
ing of artificial butter, even with palm
oil, which is perfectly wholesome, but
permit the coloring of genuine butter
with coal tar dyes or anything else.

Shissler's Victims.

Denver, March 13.-At a late hour
last night it was reported at the Emer-
gency hospital that Captain of Police
Bohanna and Police Surgeon Dulin
were improving. DR.. Dulin was struck
by three bullets from the rife OF Shiss-
Ter and the bone of his right leg was
shattered below the knee. Another
passed through the calf Of his right
leg. The third bullet ploughed through
the fleshy part Of his hip. The bullet
which splintered the bone of the right
leg probably will cause DR.. Dnlin to
be cripple for life, as 1t Is now
thought that amputation will be neces-
sary. The injuries of Captain Bohanna
are painful but not serious.
At the hospital last night 1t was
stated that there was little doubt but
that both the injured men would re

OUR NATIONAL PASTRY.
PIE, the Great American Dessert, Espe-
cialiy In New England.

pie is consumed chiefly by the ma

of Chicago, to the Milwaukee Sentinel.
Foreigners eat very little Of 1t. A
German. for example, might eat three
pies a year. while good Yankee
would consume as many In week.
The English, the Italians and the
French are small pie eaters. The Eng
lish eat plum pudding and the Italians
like fruit. New England and the Mid
ole states constitutes the area OF
greatest consumption. but the pie belt
extends far beyond that, as pie is ex-
tensiyely eaten all through the West
Pie is eaten much more generally in
the North than in the South. Chicago
is a great pie center. st. Louis is not
so good. Milwaukee also ranks low.
One would not think that there are
means for ascertaining the facts in re-
gard to pie consumption. but have
gathered statistics on the subject dur
Ing the past two years which enables
me to compute with reasonable cor
rectness the consumption of pies in
every state in the Union. Pies are
made In greater varieties than for
merly. and the supplies are brought
from greater distances-in fact from
all parts of the world. The season of
pies made from green fruit have been
prolonged and pies are made of
canned fruit the year round. The
time-honored mince pie has become
Christmas dessert whose place is sure
and beyond dispute. There is no ex-
port trade in pies. because in crossing
the ocean the crust would become
soggy, which. of course. is the reverse
of the desired condition. 1t is a fact
which would surprise many persons.
however. that pies are often shipped

Interfered with Her Social Duties and
Threatened to Cause Her Retire.
ment-How She Was Cured.
Every sufferer from nervous headache
knows how completely it units one for
the duties and pleasures Of life. Any
little excitement. or oyer:.exertion. or ir-
regularity brings 1t on. Sometimes the
pain is over the whole head. Again it
is like nail driven into the brain, or g.
wedge splitting it open, or band tight
eniIlg about it. At one time it is all in
the top Of the head, at another it is all
at the base of the skull.
Most headaches can be traced to somt
faulty state Of the blood. When ths
blood is scanty or charged with poison,
and the nerves are imperfectly nourished
and the digestion weak, one of the COM
monest results is frequent and severe
headaches.
The important thing is to get rid of tho
diseased condition of the blood that
causes the attack by the use of a remedy
that will do the work quickly and
thoroughly. What is that remedy? The
experience of Miss Ellen Mckenna fur
nishes the answer. She says:
"For more than seven years was n
great sufferer from nervous headache and
dizziness. My stomach was disordered.
and became SO restless that could not
sit still any length of time. Dizziness
interrupted my work greatly. At first
the attacks were not so severe, but they
gradually grew more violent, and finally
became SO acute that was OH the point
of relinquishing my membership III the
different organizations to which be.
longed."
"What saved you from that necessity"
"a very simple thing; the call of
member of one of the clubs, who strongly
advised me to try DIR. Williams Pink Pills
before givingup. acted on her sugges-
tion at once, and after steadily using this
great blood and nerve remedy for two
months. my headaches and my dizzi-
ness entirely disappeared.
Miss Mckenna is secretary of the
Associated Ladies' Guild, and resides at
No. 4S Wait street, Roxbury, Mass. DIR.
Williams Pink Pills have cured many
hundreds of similar cases, and can be
confidently recommended to drive all
poisons from the blood and to give needed
strength to the nerves. Every druggist
keeps them.
