Work and Finds no Crookedness
BOISE, Feb. 1.-THE republicans OF
the senate yesterday, in caucus, con-
sidered the report that is to be made
by the special committee of Senators
Walker Hull and Taylor. named to ex-
anime the vouchers of the state super
intendent of public instruction, Miss
Scott, bearing on the expense of caring
for the states deaf and blind wards.
The committee had been furnished a
report by it's expert. Mr.. Voight. which
exonerated Miss Scott from the indi-
rect charge of wrongdoing. 1t is under
stood that the committee was divided
on the character of the report to be
presented Senator Walker insisting
that it show carelessness, if nothing
more in the manner of keeping the ac-
counts. To this, it is said, the other
members of the committee demurred.
so it was decided to take the question
into caucus. The caucus is understood
to have agreed that all that was nee
essary was for the committee to submit
the report of its expert. and this will
no doubt be done.

in Kentland. Ind. the boyhood home
of George AIDE, the humorist.
AIDE was peculiar character in his
younger years." says the Judge in Sue

loafing place during the little time he
spent in loafing. He was employed on
a farm owned by banker. One day
he walked into the Office and said to
me:
THAT man is the best ever

something funny was coming from AIDE.
We'll he replied. he doesn't ask a
man to do days work in ten hours

"As a boy we didn't suppose that AIDE
would amount to much" continued the
judge, though his drollery was always
amusing"

RETREAT BECOMES A RACE.
Russians and Japs Hurryine North on
Parallel Roads.

A dispatch from st. Petersburg
says anxiety regarding the fate of
General Linevitch's force continues,
the main danger to them being the
Japanese columns which are hhrrying
northward along the great trade route
twenty miles west and parallel with
the line of retreat. The heads of these
columns were officially reported to be
passing Fakoman, thirty miles north
west Of Tie Pass. on Friday Their
appearance doubtless FASTENED the
Russians retirement, which may now
have become literally race north
ward. as once the Russians are headed
It would be easy for the Japanese by
short cut to throw themselves across
the line of retreat After leaving
kaiyuan. General Linevitch is believed
to have divided his army. the main
portion keeping TO the railroad and the
other falling back along the Mandarin
road which runs to Kirin, 1t being inn
possible TO leave the latter open to the |
Japanese lest they then be able to
creep up TO the left flank. At the same /
time IL is recognized that separation
Of forces is always attended with the
danger OF giving the enemy an OPP
portunity to concentrate and fight the
army In detail. Some military men

The explosion was Immediately fol

number OF men and women who were
unable to extricate themselves from

the terrific upheayal in the boiler

in the building were manned, burned
or bruised by the time they reached
safe ground. Some had jumped from
the roof, some from windows and 9TH

to escape from the doomed factory,
which from all parts emitted the heat
OF an inferno, driving back the band
OF heroic rescuers who in few mo

The fire extended from the factory
TO seven other buildings in the vicin-

Stomach.

The majority of people never stop
to think that the stomach is anything
more than a receptacle for things that
have been chewed. They get hold OF
something that tastes good and swal-
low it into the stomach to get it out
of the way, so there will be room for
something more. That might be all
right if the stomach were a garbage
box that could be carried off and
emptied; but nature intends the stom-
ach for another purpose. We are
constructed of what we eat. We should
stop to think of that. We should be
careful what we swallow, for it be-
comes brain, heart. limbs, blood; and
If we are to have good blood, clear
brains, sound minds, sturdy legs and
strong arms, we must eat food that
is capable of making that sort of It's

tuberculosis is a low-level disease.
People are not subject to it until their
bodies have become weakened and
their whole constitution undermined.
1t used to be thought that one could
not have tuberculosis If only he ex-
ercised his lungs. A man who had
this disease went to a professor in
Vienna for advice. The professor
said, You had better get horn and
learn to play it, to exercise your
lungs" Alas. professor" answered
the man, Il am band master now"
To live a natural life is the only
safeguard against tuberculosis. One
climate may do as well as another il
only you live out of doors, get plenty
of cold. fresh air. battle the body with
cold water daily. eat simple, nutri-
tious food and take as much exercise
as possible without exhausting the
