The Troubles i'm FRANCE

Paris, April l9.-Ansrchists are pre-
pairing to inaugurate campaign OF
active warfare, by means OF attacks on
army and police officers who may be
found in isolated places, in retaliation
for the firing on the mobs at Limoges
during the strike OF the porcelain work
ers. A number OF anarchists met last
night at the labor exchange. They de
cided to advise their fellows in all the
leading cities to refrain from any de-
monstrations in large bodies, but TO kill
army officers and policemen when they
are caught alone on the streets. The
purpose was openly avOwed to be in
revenge for the killing of rioters at
Limoges.

Act OfJeaIOuS Man.

Three persons are seriously wounded,
one of them, it is believed, fatally, as
the result of a shooting and an attempt
at selfdestruction which occurred late
Yesterday afternoon at the house No. 16
f street southwest, Washington. The in
iured are Rutledge Robinson, aged 81,
an inmate of the Soldiers Home T.; Kate
Norbeck, single, aged %, and Frank
Jones, white, aged 80 years. Miss Nor
beck lived at the house with her mother,
and Jones boarded at the same place
Robinson, the old soldier, visited there
frequently. Yesterday it is believed while
in fit OF jealousy Jones shot and fatally
injured Robinson and the Norbeck girl,
and then attempted to commit suicide
by stabbing himself with knife in the
breast and cutting his throat with a
razor. Robinson will probably get well,
but the girl was shot through the liver
and intestines and probably will die
JOnes's wounds were dressed and the
physicians at Providence Hospital, where
all three victims were removed, express
the opinion that he may recover Jones
is under arrest.

The Moroccan Question.

Paris, April l9.-The Moroccan
question was brought up in the Chamber
of Deputies by Count Boni Castellane,
husband of Anna Gould, who interpret
lated the Government in regard to the
situation there. He declared that, in
his opinion, the Government, in choos-
ing from several possible policies, had
selected the one which presented the
smallest issue. NJ. Delcasse, the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs, in response
stated that he had confirmed the reports
that the regulations at Fee in regard to
the settlement of the Moroccan question
were proceeding satisfactorily. He de-
clared that he had held an interview
with the German Ambassador, who had
promised to dispel the trouble between
France and Germany. Premier Rou'
vier, who followed NJ. Delcasse, said
that France is awaiting Germany's re-
ply in the matter and that France has
the deepest wish to respect the peace OF
the world. NJ. Rouvier held that the
weakening OF Russia's military power
had been responsible for Germany's move

REV. ROBERT CAMERON, editor OF
Watchword and Truth, comes to the de-
tense of Mr.. Rockefeller by saying that
the securing of special rates was usually
the custom until forbidden by law, and
asks # the ministers are consistent. He
adds that, as a rule, they are not the men
to object TO special rates from railroads,
colleges, Libraries, book stores or other
sources of modern comfort. He wants
to know why they should have half rates
any more than the common herd of men.
He insists that Mr.. Rockefeller should
not be condemned without being heard
in his own defense.

of California, H. Rider Haggard, the
English novelist, who has come TO Amer

told of the utter wretchedness of life in

diction:
"Unless the evils brought about by

are stopped, western civilization is in
danger of being swept away by a con
quering eastern people, who have the
virtues of their country and are not al
flicted with western evils"

CONFIDENCE

said Lord Chatham, is plant
of slow growth" People believe
in things that they see, and in a
broad sense they are right. What
is sometimes called blind faith is
not faith at all. There must be
reason and fact to form a foun-
dation for trust. In regard to a
medicine or remedy, for example,
people ask, "Has it cured 9th
ers? Have cases like mine been
relieved by it? Is it in harmony
with the truths of modern science,
and has it a record above suspic-
ion? II SO, it is worthy of conf
dence; and if [ am ever attacked
by any of the maladies for which
it is commended | shall resort
to it in full belief in it's pow
er to help me-" On these lines
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
has won it's high reputation a.
mong medical men, and the
people of all civilized countries.
They trust it for the same reason
that they trust in the familiar
laws of nature or in the action
of common things. This effective
remedy is palatable as honey and
contains the nutritive and cura-
tive properties of Pure Cod Liver

cod livers, combined with the

radicates the poisonous, disease
breeding acids and other toxic
matters from the system; regu-
lates and promotes the normal
action of the organs, gives vigor-
GUS appetite and digestion, and is
infallible in Observation-Disclosures
