A bill Of exceptions will be quashed
where 1t is not certified and identified
in such manner that this court may
know that 1t is the identical bill al

When the revolution" occurred on
the Isle Of Pines President Palma
made the direct charge that Squiers
was in sympathy with the revolutions

Edward V. Morgan Of New York,

Gives Up Position for Love.

Herman Won Wetter, a young Ger
nan whose title is baron in his own
country, was married a few days ago
in Stamford, Conn, to Miss Louise
Hurlbutt. The groom, a strapping
fellow 26 years old and feet inches
in his shoes, gave up his title on COM
ing here to wed the girl of his choice
and will start out for himself as an
electrical engineer. He met Miss
Hurlbutt in Dresden, where she was
studying art. He takes much pride in
the fact that his great-grandfather
Baron Won Wetter-Rosenthal was an
aid to Washington in the war of the
revolution.

Value of open-Air Exercise.

Occasional reference to a thermome-
ter might not be amiss in the house
holds, the public buildings and the
business establishments in which the
temperature is permitted to soar up
to summer heat while the doors and
windows that admit the outside air,
that will keep the indoor atmosphere
fresh and pure, are almost hermeti-
cally sealed. Coddling in the form
OF too much bundling up of the throat
and chest is as prolific a source of
colds as insufficiency of clothing. Lack
of exercise in the open air has much
to do with reducing the power of re-
sistance against the whole category
OF diseases that are summed up I'M
der the name of colds. A brisk walk
every day in the open air, without
regard to the weather, is one of the
best preventives against coids.-Balti-
moro American.

BOOM FOR LIVE STOCK SHOW
Business Men Indicate Desire to Take
Hold of the Project.

OMAHA-Fifty business men of
Omaha and South Omaha, including
the board of governors of the knights
Of Ak-Sar.Ben, the executive commit
tee Of the Commercial club and live
stock commission men, met at the
Commercial club rooms and discussed
live stock show for Omaha next
winter.
The concensus of opinion was that
Omaha can and ought to have a sue
cessful live stock show next fall or
winter. 1t was determined to hold an
other meeting soon to which the pub
Tic will be invited, and at which the
question WI be finally decided. A
committee was appointed to make a
study of conditions necessary to a
successful live stock show and to re-
port at this meeting. 1t is probable
that members of the committee will
visit the live stock show which is to
be gwen in Chicago, December 16 to
30.

What can't be cured is cheerfully
endured-by the undertaken.

Every housekeeper should know that
If they will buy Defiance Cold Water
Starch for laundry use they will save
not only time, because it never sticks
to the iron, but because each package
contains 16 Ozone full pound-while
oil other Cold Water Starches are put
up in u -pound packages, and the price
is the same, 10 cents. Then again
because Defiance Starch is free from
all injurious chemicals. If your grocer
tries to sell you a f2-oz. package it
is because he has stock on hand
which he wishes to dispose of before
he puts in Defiance. He knows that
Defiance Starch has printed on every

Exchange Of Words In Languages.

Curious exchanges OF words some
times take place between two Ian
guages. Thus English has borrowed
the French "poseur" and has given
to France "snob" in trade. French
men have a way of taking a polysyl-
Liable word and using half of it. Thus
of "steeplechase" they have appropri-
ated the "steeple" and now the French
sportsman" speaks of mounting a

SLOW TO PROCLAIM HOLY WAR.
Sultan Will Hesitate Long Before
Arousinq Mcslem Fsnatcisn,

When Turkey gets into serious trou-
BILE sensation mongers always have an
opportunity to revive the time-worn
story that the sultan is about to pro-
claim holy war and rouse the Mos
lem world. Now the cry is being rails
ed again. 1t was never less impress
sive to those who take sober survey
OF conditions. Abdul Hamid has been
in many tighter places than the one
in which he finds himself now. His
capital was at the mercy of Russian
armies before he had reigned two
years. He was obliged to stop his
victorious troops when they had
crushed the Greeks in brief and easy
campaign. The island of Crete has
been virtually wrenched from Turkey.
A liberal slice of territory south of
the Balkans was handed over to Bull
garia early in the sultans reign. All
these losses and crises he suffered to
pass without an appeal to Moslem
fanaticim.-Cleveland Leader.

what Governor Carter has striven to
bring about. Every cent of the money

itself.

saction.

Mr.. Atkinson did not say that there
had been any bids for the bonds in
New York, but it is very probable that
there We're. The bid of Mr.. Irwin, how
ever, was the best, and was therefore
accepted. Indeed, it is likely enough
that the New York men had entered
into combination. in a quiet way, and

However, they will know more next

as Hawaiian bonds are an excellent in

that they are on the anxious seat, and
not the territory, when it comes to

way, more Or less. The reason for this,
in case OF the Hawaii Seagirt team al
least. is said to be in the fact that the
officers Of the regiment had time 10
practice and keep up their shooting,
while the men had to stick TO their
daily work.
One of these, however, stuck to his
daily work, and made the team, too.
This is Private Gouveia, and his daily
work is of distinctly laborious kind.
The man is employed to drill holes for
blasting out rock in the government
quarries, and not only has he had to
rock supply for work on the roads. but
he has had to do this at odd hours
between trips to the targets for prac-
tice, and at the same time he has had
to accumulate a surplus of holes suffi-
cient to make it certain that blasting
would go right along during the six
weeks of his absence at Sea girt. So, if
Gouveia has not holes enough on hand,
he cannot go. But he is still drilling,
and thinks he will make it.
Lieutenant Cummins, road time
keeper, has difficulties of his own to
meet. He works for both the territory
his territorial work up to date, but the
delay in getting county finances in
shape is worrying him.
Major Pratt will go away if he can
get somebody to run the land office for
him, or if he thinks he can trust it to
run itself for six weeks.
