IA MOUSE REQUIEM.

The effects of musical vibra- tion upon animals at close range was seriously illustrated in Port land the other day.
 E. c. Webb, better known as Harry Webb, the we'll known musician and member of Chand- ler's band, was rehearsing in the band rooms in Monument square.
 He was engaged at the time in tuning the brass horn which he plays to a bass drum. As he sounded the notes on the horn and beat on the drum he spied a mouse run across the room tow ard him. MT. Webb kept on playing, apparently for the ben eft of the mouse.
 When the mouse came to with in a few feet of where MT. Webb was seated, the little animal crouched on his launches and looked directly into the mouth of the horn which MT. Webb was tuning. The vibration of the horn and drum were to much for him, and in less than a min- ute the little fellow had rolled over onto the floor dead. Lew iston (Me. Journal.

times before what is commonly known as news, for advertise ments are sometimes the latest and most vital news, vital to every day life. The headlines of an ad can be made as attractive as the headlines of a wedding and the bargains offered as al- turing as the wedding feast. The business man who talks to the readers of a newspaper as he talks to a customer in his store IS the one who wins. Use hand bills and posters if you wish, but place your great hope for returns in the columns of your favorite newspaper. -Ex.

REVIEW BOOK CLUB.

The first meeting of the Re- view Book Club was held with the president, Mrs. M. A. Dor sey, Saturday afternoon and the attendance upon the part of the members was very gratifying as all were present except two.
 Miss Sallie Foster was leader for the afternoon and proved herself equal to the occasion, the subject of the lesson being the foremost soldiers and sail ors in ancient history.
 By a vote of the members it was decided to make the club strictly a club for young ladies and the number limited to twen- ty-fve.
 The next meeting will be with Miss Della Bernstein which will be Saturday, April 29, and a very interesting program has been arranged by the committee.
 At the conclusion of the pro- gram Mrs. Jeannette Herbert, the organizer of the club, made a talk on physical culture which was a rare treat to the large number present, who were loud in their praise of the talk given by this gifted woman, who was for several years state president of this work in Tennessee hav- ing her office in the Randolph building in Memphis.

vUEER ACCIDENTS TO GUNS, dishaps nn . British Battleship That Caused Fear Among
 the Crew.

While the British battleship Thur derer was off Milford Haven, Wales. not long ago a curious accident to one of her guns caused much alarm among her crew. A target had been put out for practice with the ten-inch breechloading guns. When one was fired by electricity only portion of the projectile was discharged, the base plate of the shot and a portion of the frame being left in the gun. When the plate was removed the pres sure of gas forced portion of the proiectile from the breech of the gun. On the second gun being fired hole about three inches in diameter was blown through the projectile, the other part of the base plate being left behind. The base plate was in this case separated from the rest of the projectile.
 Such accidents are believed never previously to have occurred on board any ship. There was much alarm among those in the turret, as the bursting of tbe guns was for . time feared. It is suggested that either the powder in the projectiles was damp or there was water in the guns So far as can be seen both guns arV sound

FINDS BOOK OF MORMON.
uiinOts Farmer Makes the Claim Thaa He Dwg Up the Ori2inal
 Manuscript.

Interest has been created at Carbon. dale, H., over a discovery made by Marshal Fenrod, who lives on farm near Dougola. Recently Penrod gruhbed black oak stump out of 8 po- .Ato field close to his residence and found stone about 8 foot long and eight inches ill diameter. The peculiar shape of the stone, which resembled . pocketbook, attracted his attention, and, upon close examination, he found carved on it's face In the English Ian. guage the following words: "This stone contains the original manuscript of Moroni (Mormon) Joseph Smith" " The ravages of time had apparently made but little headway on the stone and upon closer examination he found the stone was hollow and a hole drilled entirely through it and at both ends red cedar plugs had been driven in Upon removing one of the plugs several sheets of parchment were found con- taining writing in hieroglyphics that
 .ouid not be deciphered.

NEWSPAPERS
 VS. HANDBILLS.

Some business men have an idea that handbills and dodgers are superior to newspapers as advertising mediums. Handbills are good in their way as auxili- aries, but they are no more to be compared to the advertising col .omns of a newspaper than a pnshcart peddler on Broadway is to be compared with John Wana- makers great emporium. The peddler attracts attention for a moment if he be an expert, but the great store rivets the eye and loosens the purse strings ot those whose trade is worth hav- ing. The handbill is crumpled in the hand and soon thrown aside. The newspaper is carried home, read and reread and filed away. There is something be- sides the advertising there en- tertainment, information which adds value to the advertising beside which it is placed.
 Advertisements are read now more than ever before, some

Many women were pierced through
the back as they were trying to es-
cape. Mangled corpses OF all ages
and both sexes strewed the ground
One boys skull was pierced and rent
by bullets.
Great splashes and streams Of
blood stained the snow. Only few
of the victims remained alive. for
the. fatal volley was fired at a dis
lance of not more than twenty PAGES
and so the ambulances had little
work to do. The police recruited a
large number of sleighs to carry of
the dead.
Heartrending scenes were witness
ed as wives, husbands and mothers
came up to claim their dead and were
carried of with them in the sleighs.
Meantime the crowd had drifted
up the Nevsky prospect. yelling
"murderers, murderers." and the
square resumed its calm aspect, the
troops returning to their stations.
II was now the turn for the crowd
stationed at the Morskaia entrance
to the square, where the horse guard
repeated the exploit with which they
had cleared the molka, and drove the
people down the street. Minor fra
cases occurred in many streets after
wards, but the palace square ceased
to be the center of interest. Many
lone officers were deprived of swords.
Half dozen policemen were sur
rounded by a crowd in neighboring
side street. The policemen drew re-
volvers and fired, and one Of them
was killed by his comrades misdi-
rected fire.

The mayor In his annual message
recommends that there be passed an
ordinance compelling connection
with the sanitary sewerage" Yet he
has for many years claimed II could
not be done because the city does not
own the water plant. A most ride
ulous contention this is, II is true, as
will be shown II the question ever
gets into a court. but the mayor when
he makes his recommendations
might also furnish diagram of how
he expects them carried out. II the
mayor we're inclined to demagogery
one would be impelled to think that
he made the recommendation simply
because he has found out that most
of the best, most progressive citizens
are convinced that the houses in the
sewerage district ought to all be con-
nected with the sewerage.

In Hands OF Rioters.

At Putiloff works the scenes re-
sembled a sham battle. The work
men, facing the troops when the or
der was given to fire, threw them
selves face on the ground. The
troops fired on them as they lay pros
trate.
Vassili Ostrov quarter was last
night in darkness, neither gas nor
electricity being available. Shops
were pillaged and the strikers burn
ed telegraph poles. Some firing was
heard.
II is reported that a body of strik-
ers tried TO reach the Tsarsko Selo,
where the. car is. but were driven
back by the troops after a sanguin-
AIRY conflict.
During the evening there were
more foot passengers in the streets
than might have been expected, but
nothing like the gaiety and hustle of
an ordinary Sunday evening
Comment on the action of the
troops and authorities is bitter, and
sarcastic remarks are made that the
officers are Drawer and that "ammu-
milton may be scarce in the far east,
but is too plentiful here"

square facing the garden.

"disperse. dispense, dispense" Many
in the crowd turned to fee. but II was
too late. A bugle sounded and the
men in the front ranks sank to their
knees and both companies fired three
volleys, the first two with blank car
tridges and the last with ball. A
hundred corpses strewed the side
walk.

Many Slaughtered.

There was a dramatic scene at the
narya gate when Father Gopon, in
golden vestments, bearing aloft the
ikon and fianked by two clergymen
carrying religious banners, approach
ed at the head of a procession of eight
thousand workmen. Troops were
drawn up across the entrance. Sew
eral times the officer called on the
procession to stop, but Father -Gopon
did not falter. Then the order was
given to fire first with blank cart
ridges. Two volleys rang out, but
the line still did not waver. Then,
with seeming reluctance, the officer
gave the command load with ball,
and the next volley followed by the
shrieks and cries of the wounded, AS
the Cossacks followed up the volley
with a charge, the workmen fled be-
fore them, leaving about 100 dead or
wounded. II is evident that the sol
diers spared Father Gopon. The
clergyman by his side were wounded,
but he escaped untouched and hid
behind a wall until the Cossacks
passed, and he was then spirited
away by the workmen.

yoU CAN INTEREST HIM.


my VIM VNtF
You can interest any man over so
years Of age in anything that will
make him feel better. because while
he may not as yet have any positive
organic disease he no longer feels
the buoyancy and vigor OF 25 nor
the freedom from aches and pains
he enjoyed in earlier years. and he
very naturally examines with inter-
est any proposition looking to the
Improvement and preservation OF his
health.
lie will notice among other things
that the stomach of so Is a very dis
f. rent one from the stomach he pos
sessed at %. That greatest care must
be exercised as to what is eaten and
how much of It, and even with the
best of care, there will be increas-
irg digestive weakness with advanc.
Ing years.
A proposition to perfect or i'm
prove the digestion and assimilation
of food is one which interests not
only every man of any age. because
the whole secret of good health,
good blood, strong nerves, is to have
a stomach which will promptly and
thoroughly digest wholesome food
because blood, nerves, brain tissue
and every other constituent Of the
body are entirely the product of d.
gestion. and no medicine or Health"
food can possibly create pure blood
or restore shaky nerves, when
weak stomach is replenishing tine
daily wear and tear of the body from
a mass of fermentlng half-dlgestel
food.
No, the stomach itself wants help
and In no roundabout way, either;
It wants direct, unmistakable assist
ance, such as is given by one or two
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal.
These tablets cure stomach trou-
bile because their use gives the stom-
ach a chance to rest and recuperate;
one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
contain digestive elements sufficient
to digest 5000 grains of ordinary
fC cd such as bread, meat, eggs, etc
The plan of dieting is simply an
other name for starvation, and the
use of prepared foods and new fan
gled breakfast foods simply make
matters worse, as any dyspeptic who
las tried them knows.
As DR.. Bennett says, the only rea-
son | can imagine why Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are not universally
used by everybody who is troubled
in any way with poor digestion is
because many people seem TO think
that because medicine is advertis-
ed or is sold in drug stores or Is
protected b" trade mark must be

truth any druggist who is observant

ent medicines and doctors prescrip-
tons for stomach trouble combined.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.

The difference between municipal
ownership and private ownership, as
applied to public utilities. was clear
ly and concisely defined by August
Belmont, of New York, in an address
a few nights ago at Chicago. He be-
lieves there are some things a city
should own, and many which she
should not; that the real thing, how
ever, Is for a city to retain control of
such utilities whenever possible. in
order to guard against imposition, but
not to undertake to own or run them.
But Mr.. Belmont himself expresses
1t this way:
"In my opinion, under right condi-
tions, not only are there no funda-
mental objections, but on the con-
trary, there are distinct advantages
to a city in going beyond what are
considered to be strictly its govern
mental functions, and acquiring and
continuing to hold the title to a
transportation system, whether by
land or water; perhaps even to other
quasi-public enterprises.
"Yet If associated with municipal
ownership there is municipal opera
ton of these properties. then | think
the iustihable lines of municipal ac-
tiyity has been overstepped.
Municipalities. asa rule, are UNI
willing to submit to the expenses nee
essary to secure the employment OF
the highest kind Of ability, essential
for the operation and development of
such properties. Yet, without this
ability, the property cannot be
brought or kept up TO the highest
state of efficiency. The whole coun-
try is secured for such ability by pri-
waite capital; compensation is sec
ondary consideration In that search.
ITO. subject a dominant political
party to the temptations which the
employment of a vast number of EN-
ployes affords, is to be avoided al
most at all hazards.
80 far as is possible, legitimate
governmental functions of city
should be adhered to by IL, and only
departed from in practice when, at
ter an exhaustive trial, il is demon
strated beyond question that other
wise satisfactory results are not to
be secured. The trial. however, must
be made under right conditions and
under right auspices.
"The results which foreign cities
have accomplished in the matter of
operation of so-ealled public utility
corporations are not of such a char
acter as TO stimulate their dupliea-
