New Chairs for College Auditorium.

Last Friday meeting OF a commit
tee of the Board of Regents of the
State Normal Schools held meeting
here to select seats for the Shepherd
College auditorium. Those present
were President Thos. G. Miller, Sec
rotary Vim. NJ. Straus and 81. L..
Snyder. A number Of agents for
various companies were on hand
with samples of their chairs, and the
competition was spirited. The COM
mittee finally purchased from Frank
NJ. Bemis, representing a Grand
Rapids firm, and selected very hand
some opera chair, bal-bearing and
entirely noiseless. q inches wide,
comfortable and easy, with hat racks
and umbrella holders, of rich ma
hogany color. The chair is up-to-
date in every respect and is a count
erpart of those used in some of the
handsomest halls and theatres in this
country. The entire auditorium will
be seated, 400 chairs having been
contracted for, and when the work is
finished there will be few rooms in
this section that will be as comforta-
bic and as wellappointed. 1t is hoped
that the chairs will be installed by
the first of June, in ample time for
the commencement exercises.
The committee also authorized the
purchase of other furniture and pro.
1vided for additional improvements to
the college buildings and grounds, In

NOT A PATENT MEDICINE
Hyomei, the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure,
Prescribed BY Physicians.

No one should confound Hyomel
with the patent medicines that are
advertised to cure catarrh. 1t is as
far superior to them all as the dia-
mond is more valuable than cheap
glass. Their composition is secret,
but Hyomei gives its formula to all
reputable physicians.
Its base i. the valuable eucalyptus
oil, famous for its antiseptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making
a pure liquid, which when used in
the Hyomei pocket inhaler, fills the
air you breathe with germ-killing'
disease destr Dying and healing pow
ers that kills all catarrhal 6 rms there
may be in the throat, nose and lungs
How foolish it is to try and cure
catarrh by swallowing tablets or hq-
uids. The only natural way to cure this
disease and all other diseases of the
respiratory organs is to breathe Hy-
omei.
This treatment has been so success
full, curing SO per cent. of all who
have used it, that Hyomei is now
sold by Reinhart's Pharmacy nnder
an absolute guarantee to refund the
money if it does not cure. You run
no risk whatever in buying Hyomei.
If it does not possess unusual powers
to cure, it could not be sold upon
this plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
$1.OO and comprises an inhaler, a
bottle of Hyomei and dropPer. The
inhaler will last a lifetime; and ad-
ditional bottles of Hyomei can be OBJ
tanned for so cents.

HOLDEN is IN A HOLE
Inspector Borrows Money of
Storey Company

PHILADELPHIA, April There
was a new development tonight in the
case of the Storey Cotton company
when George c. Holden, an inspector
attached to the Philadelphia division
of the postal inspection service. ad-
mitted having received cash favors
from the Storey Cotton company.
Holden's admission followed the dis
covery in the company's cash book un-
loan to George c. Holden of 81 100. The
discovery was made by Assistant
United States District Attorneys Stew
art and Swartly. Postal Inspector
Mayer in charge OF the New York divi-
sion has been detailed by Postmaster
General Cortelyou to assume personal
charge in Philadelphia of the investi-
-uSeAof the malls Local inspectors
have been detailed to obtain further
evidence concerning the loan to Inspec-
tor Holden.
Suit for the recovery of the property
attached by Receiver Mcneil on behalf
of the creditors of the Providence in
vestment bureau, brought by Receiver
Bradley Of the Storey Cotton company,
has. been dropped and the United
States court will be petitioned on Mon
-dayato make the Storey Cotton COM
pany joint creditors, testimony having
been offered at the hearing yesterday
of Stanley Francis tending TO establish
connection between the Storey Cotton
company and the provident investment
bureau. Receiver Bradley will ask the
courts to apportion the amount recov-
cred equally between the depositors In
both concerns.
Mr.. McNeal today attached several ad-
ditional properties of Stanley Francis
and Frank c. Marin. With the excep-
ton of an automobile all articles of value
belonging TO Francis have been i'm
pounded. 1t was learned today that Fran
els and Marin, the latter under the
name Of Stone. had accounts with four
banks. one Of them being the Nassau Ma
ttonai bank Of New York. All OF the in
situations were notified by the receiver
not to dispose OF any OF the money until
further notice. Considerable difficulty was
found In attaching the property of Fran
els, as almost everything in which he
was interested was Incorporated and the
only thing that the receiver was able
to attach was his interest In the business.

CHURCH REVOLTKEEPS
GROWING IN RUSSIA

ST. PETERSBURG, April 2.-The
movement for greater freedom for the
Russian church and the demand for
the convocation of general council
to consider reforms in the spiritual
and administrative life of the church.
voiced in the manifesto of a group of
st. Petersburg priests, finds support In
the influential clergy, not only in the
capital, but in the provinces, and Is
to be regarded as anothey manifesto
ton of a. general revolt in Russia
against the domination of the bu-
reaucracy, which is equally predomi-
nant in church as in political admins
tration. 1t is a mistake to suppose the
movement is directed against the en-
peror, with whose position as divine
representative and viceroy upon earth"
the whole belief OF the Russian church
is bound up, but against the subordi-
nation of church to civil authority
aims, which have been steadily grow
ing since the institution by Peter the
Great of the holy synod.
The manifesto was followed yester-
day by letter from Bishop Dmitri Of
Novo- Mirgorod, one of the influential
provincial bishops, in which he de-
mands freedom Of the church from the
power Of the Chinovniks and the bu-
reaucracy, and names the chief pro-
curator OF the molly SYNOD DOth as an
official whose power needs curtail-
ment and who himself stands in the
way of reform.
The whole movement in fact is aim
ed at Procuror General Of the Holy
Synod Pobedonostseff and the chancel-
lery under his direction, which, though
in essence a political organization, has
attained such powers that without it's
permission no pulpit can be occupied,
and not even repairs in a church in the
remotest government can be under
taken.
The reformers are not agreed as to
the extent to which the reforms should
go. Some are asking only for the abo-
lition of the bureaucratic annex TO the
holy synod, while others suggest the
return to the patriarchate which pre-
ceded the synod, with church councils
as the final authority in all matters of
doctrine
The influential journals are lending
support to the movement within the
church, the Novoe Vremya declaring
that the church is lying in paralysis,
its voice no longer needed because of
the -predominance of the bureaucrat
which has made the Office of metropol-
itan nothing and that of procuror Of
the holy synod everything

to the northwestern farmers speak
ing on the general subject of rust re-
sisting wheats, he says: -a.
Rust Resistance
BY far the most important thing to be
learned from the results of the general
rust attack of 1904 is the fact now well
demonstrated, that there are number of
kinds of wheat and other grains suffl-
ciently resistant to rust to give at least
a good average yield when the disease oc-
ours in the greatest abundance. 1t was
not until the past season that the oppor-
tunity of thoroughly demonstrating the
fact of this complete rust resistance of
certain varieties was presented, and this
demonstration alone may yet be found to
be of sufficient value to much more than
counterbalance all the losses sustained
during the season. 1t can now be seen
very plainly what varieties can be de-
pended upon 10 withstand rust, and II
such varieties are grown no considerable
loss by this fungus need ever again be
on by the department Of agriculture and
the state experiment stations for several
years have led to the belief that a num-
Der of varieties of wheat can offer con-
siderable resistance to rust, but In no
one locality. where these experiments
have been conducted, was the rust ever
sufficiently severe to test this question
thoroughly until 1904. On analyZing the
results of many experiments for the sea :
son Of 1904 it is found that these va
rieties have withstood the attacks of rust
as would have been expected, but the de-
gree of resistance has been very much
greater than would have been predicted.
In the opinion of Mr.. Carleton 1t will
pay the farmers in many cases to SOW
early varieties of wheat, in order that
the grain may mature before the rust
can attack the growing plants. Even
If the yield is not as good in some
cases, he thinks 1t would be well to
sow them in order that the damage
from rust ravages may be avoided.
Generally speaking, no winter wheat
is raised In the Dakotas or in Mime
sofa. Yet the agricultural department
insists that it is possible by the use of
the hardest varieties to grow winter
wheat in the greater part OF South
Dakota, and even in portions of Min
nesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin.
Winter wheat usually yields much bet
ter than spring wheat, and in all cases
the danger of rust is much less.

WASHINGTON, April LIN the
expert, good will ultimately result from
the havoc played by wheat rust in the
northwest last season. He believes
that the improvements in farming will
be SO great as to show that the rust of
last year, which caused a loss of many
thousands of dollars to the farmers of
the northwestern states, was really
blessing in disguise. The lesson, he
thinks, was needed
The results of rust last year were
most serious in Minnesota and the two
Dakotas, but there was also good
deal of damage in the adjoining por-
tons Of Canada and in Kansas, Wis
consin and Nebraska. Mr.. Carleton
declares it is not true that rust is more
abundant in the case of partially eX-
hauSted soils. Neither is it true, he
says, that weaker plants are afflicted
with rust more than the others. The
chief cause, he AYERS, is too much wa
ter and therefore softer tissues in the
growing plant.
Rust Not Increasing
Mr.. Carleton says he does not believe
that rust is increasing from year to
year. He admits the possibility that
this is true, although he thinks this
possibility is more than offset by our
growing knowledge of how to deal with
the evil of wheat rust. In regard to the
question, much discussed in the north
west, of whether rusted wheat is good
for seed, Mr.. Carleton says:
The seed from a crop injured by rust
is in practically the same condition as
seed that is shriyeled from any other
cause, such as drought or immaturity. at
the time of harvesting. 1t is generally
we'll known that seed that is merely
ShrlVeled from any of these Other. causes,
unless to an extreme degree, is all right
Tor planting. Seed that is much shriyeled
however, from any cause should not be
used as it will not have the vigorous
growth that 1T should develop after ger
mlnation, not having sufficient amount
OF stored up material in the seed to give
II a good start The only important fact
Tor the farmer to understand is that seed
from rusted grain will not carry the rust
INTO The next crop-at least so far as the
grain rusts of our own country are con-
ceTned.
Mr.. Carleton says that durum or
macaroni wheats resist rust much bet
ter than other wheats, and that this
fact Is of great economic Importance
