THE CAR NOW WISHES
TO PROMOTE PEACE
Russian Ruler Issues an Invitation TO-
Foreign Powers to Attend Confer
ence at The Hague.

81 Petersburg Emperor Nicholas
today again appears before the world
as promoter of universal peace. No
sooner Ia the Russo-Japanese war
over, and even before the peace treaty
has been ratified than his majesty is
sues invitations TO second peace
conference at The Hague.
That the emperor has done so was
learned Monday from a source which
leaves no shade on which doubt as to
its authenticity may be based 1t is
announced that the Russian govern
ment purposes to address the foreign
lowers with view to the holding OF
second peace conference at The
Hague, but II is known that negotia-
tons preceding this announcement
that the government purposed to ad-
dress the powers were entered into
especially with the United States and
were conducted with the greatest Sc
crecy. there being not the slightest
inkling that Russia contemplated
anything OF the kind.
The news created the greatest sur
prise here and that Russia should plan
second conference despite the steps
already taken by President Roosevelt
was also heard with Amusement. 1t is
clear that the step could not be taken
by Russia without first reaching a
complete understanding with Presi
dent Roosevelt. The fact that the
president is reported as being entirely
In sympathy with the proposal and
that he Is said to believe that TO the
lnitiator to the first Hague conference
should belong the honor of conyoking |
the second. and readily and gladly ac-
ceded TO the Russian proposition is |
clear proof that the conference has |
been called and that President Roose
'elt relinquished his part in 1t to the
Emperor.

REMEDIES USED BY MILLIONS
Truth About the Popular proprietary
Medicines"

The recent campaign against the
use of proprietary medicines, conduct
ed in the columns of The Ladies'
Home Journal and Golfers Weekly.
has evoked an answer from the Com
mittee on Legislation of the Proprie-
tary Association. The committee says:
In considering the question raised
by recent attacks upon proprietary
medicines, every reasonable man will
admit that there is wide and Iegiti-
mate field for the manufacture and
sale Of medicines already prepared
Tor general use and easily obtainable
at all times and everywhere. 4.
AS matter of fact these medicines
are not patented at all, and the popu-
lar use of the word patent in connec-
ton with them is misnomer Any
pharmacist will tell you that practi-
caIy the only patent medicines in
use to-day are those which are manu-
factured either by foreign or domestic
pharmaceutical houses, and which are
now almost exclusively dispensed by
physicians or designated By them IN
their prescriptions.
The medicines which are now the
subject Of wholesale attack by Mr.
BOX and Editor Hapgood are the old
fashioned family remedies properly
described as proprietary medicines
Ihey are the favorite remedies among
millions Of people all over the coun-
try; and, Notwithstanding the con-
slant effort of some physicians to Gre
ate prejudice against them, no one
ever yet heard of any of the millions
ol users of such remedies asking for
legislation or other action adverse to
thems

Gas at Harms-Not Revived
For Several Hours.

F. J. Berg, a guest at the Hotel
Harms, was nearly asphyxiated by es-
Gaping gas from an opened burner in his
room yesterday afternoon. He was
found in an unconscious condition, and
IL was only prompt action that saved
his life. 1t was about 4 O'Clock when
a bell boy discovered Mr.. Berg's con-

once. He worked with him for several
hours, and it was not until O'Clock in

whether the asphyxiation had been the
result of an accident or whether the
gas had been turned on with suicidal
intent.
The impression gained at the hotel is
that Mr.. Berg has not been like himself
for several days. The hotel manage
