Women Would unseat smoo..

Philadelphia. - More than 100000
women representing the leading
women's organizations of the United
States have adopted n memorial call
ing for the unseating of United States
Senator Reed Smoot. This was an
nounced by the executive committee of
the National Congress of Mothers who
met here to-day. This memorial will
be presented when Congress con-
venes.

meeting of the executive committee of
the National League of Women's Or
sanizations which was held in New

Smoot, who is an apostle and in direct
line for the Mormon presidency, has
pledged first allegiance to the Mormon
hierarchy. which has broken faith
with the government.
Smoot, the women declare. controls
the vote of eight other senators and,
fearing that his power will increase.
they ask that action be taken at the
convening of Congress.
1t was decided TO hold the next ma
tional congress of mothers at Los
Angeles. May I, s. . and 10, 1906.

How Freight Rebate is Paid.

st. Paul.-At the Roosevelt birth
day celebration President A. b. Stick
ney of the Great Western railway
told about rebates. He said:
"The ingenuity which is now eXer-
cised by both railways and their Gus
toners to maintain the secrecy of re-
bates can be illustrated better than de-
scribed. Since the injunctions were
issued-and the terrors of the law are
considered imminent-I have been
told do not vouch for its truth, al
though l have seen what purports to
be copy of the contract between
shippers and the routing agency-of
cases where young men from so-called
routing agencies in New York make
periodical trips through the Western
cities, leaving not bank checks, but
packages of actual money, without
note or comment, upon certain mer'
chants desks, taking no voucher nor
receipt. Curiously when these pack
ages are counted they are found to be
exactly a certain percentage. supposed
to be TWENTY-FIVE per cent. of the
amount of freight which such mer-
chants have paid certain railway
company since the last previous visit
of the young man who thus distributes
hundreds of thousands of dollars an
nually.

HEALTHY CHILDREN.

without good health life is not
worth living. Sickly, peevish chill
dren are source of endless trouble
and anxiety TO their parents, yet the
children's condition is frequently due
to their parents ignorance or thought
lessness, or both.
To make children healthy and to
keep them in that condition 1t is nee
essary to feed them proper food and
to see that they get plenty of exer
else and fresh air. Meat is very bad
for children. 1t should be avoided
and food rich in phosphates, such ss
Pillsbury's Vitos, should be given I'M
its place.
This food is truly the meat Of the
wheat" 1t is made by the worlds
greatest millers and 1t is free from
artificial coloring or adulteration. 1t
is not especially a child's food. Your
whole family will enjoy this common
sense cereal. 1t makes n wholesome.
substantial breakfast or an appetite
ing dessert and can be prepared in
one hundred different ways.
Every good grocer will supply you
with Pillsburys Vitos. Large pack
age-enough to make twelve pounds
of strength-building food. Ask your
grocer about it today.

Colfax, and the front wheel was splin-
tered to bits.

seat and Mrs. Mcdonald. in trying to
leap from the vehicle, was struck by
the door. The blow threw her with
great force to the ground. The. driver
hung TO the lines and the horses were
stopped. Mrs. Schofeld did not try to
escape from the vehicle and was not

aid into the Bostwick residence and
DIR. c. w. Enos was called in. He

PARALYSIS CURED

A Miser's Savings.

The accumulation of $500.O00 from a
grammar school principals salary.
ranging from $500 to $1,000 a year,
for fifty years, is the remarkable
achievement of Professor Alpheus Du
Bois of New York. 1t is an achieve
ment as mysterious to the ordinary
mind as is the rapid accumulation of
millions by some public officials whose
salaries are less than their cost of liv-
ing Three thousand dollars year for
fifty years aggregates $3.50, 0,000-$35O.-
900 less than 100000. Yet reference
to the interest table will show that the
feat which seems so extraordinary. II
not impossible, may be accomplished
very easily. Nothing accumulates
faster than money at compound inter
est. Ten dollars saved every year and
invested at five per cent. will amount.
to $1,000 in thirty-fve years, and
$4,000 laid aside from a salary OF
$4,000 and allowed to accumulate for
forty years will grow to about $3.50. 0.00G.
Another ten years will put 1t very near
the 100000 mark. Du Bois had the
advantage for many years Of seven per
cent. legal interest.
So the wonder is, not that his
modest salary proved the seed OF
big fortune. but that anyone well paid

.ANINSURRECTION
REARS ITS HIDEoUS HEAD IN
RUSSIA's CAPITAL.
CAR SHUT UP IN PETERH0F
Government May Be overthrown.-
Witte and Trepoff Disagree
Municipal Council Demands Polit-
ical Reforms,


St. Petersburg.-While the day
passed quietly without bloodshed in
the Russian capital, and while the city
is outwardly calm. developments all in
dicate that crisis is imminent. Al
though the streets are filled with
troops and reinforcements are now
pouring in from Finland, the govern
ment seems utterly powerless to cope
with the situation and many calm OBJ
servers seem to believe that the pres
ent regime is tottering to its fall.
Differences have developed between
Count Witte and General Trepoff, and
while the precious moments pass, the
emperor, surrounded by the imperial
family, remains shut up at Peterhof,
seemingly still hesitating as to what
course to pursue. Grave doubts are
expressed as to whether even the i'm
perial guard can now be relied upon.
Discomfort is rife. EARLY this morn
ing the Fourteenth and Eighteenth
equipages of sailors of the guard who
have been shut up like prisoners in
barracks on the Moska canal de-
molished the windows and furniture
and in the afternoon detachment
consisting of four officials of the guard,
went to the lawyers assembly and told
the barristers that many of the officers
and large part of the troops were
disgusted with the government and
were ready to enlist in the movement
for freedom.
A meeting of the municipal council
was held this evening at which depu-
tation of thirty members of the strik-
ers' committee appeared. In an i'm
passioned speech the leader OF the
deputation presented the following
demands of the workmen and affiliated
organizations:
"First-A constitution and political
liberty.
"Second-That the city furnish food
to the workmen.
"Third-That the city refuse fur
ther supplies to the troops and the
police.
.'Fifth-That the troops be removed
from the water works or otherwise the
strikers would cut off the water sup
ply.
"Fifth-The immunity OF the depu-
tation from arrest"
The council granted this last de-
mand and promised an early reply to
the other demands.
The foreign embassies have dis
cussed the situation, but have rs yet
taken no steps regarding the safety OF
foreign residents. AS precaution the
State Department at Washington mas

CONVENTION SPLITS.

Chicago to stand for
President Roosevelt's policy for the
regulation of railroad rates, a large
number of delegates to the Interstate
Commerce Law Convention were
barred from the convention of that Or

preston to their ideas on the subject.
Aware of alleged attempts to thwart
the purpose of the convention, the

admit delegates, although properly ac-
credited, unless they would agree to
support the Presidents rate plan
These delegates objected to the pro-
cedure. demanding they be given the
right of free speech, while the oppo-
sition charged they were sent by the
railroads and other alleged interests
to pack the convention.
number of exciting scenes fol-
lowed before the meetings were called
to order in the conventions of both
sides. The number of delegates at
each convention was about equal,
ranging between 400 and 500.
Speeches, organization and resolu-
tions including one which was pre-,
sented in the Studebaker hall conven-
ton asking the President to settle the
dispute as to which was the regular
convention, but upon which no action
was taken. occupied the time of the
first meetings.
The conventions will continue in
session tomorrow, when resolutions
will be adopted by the Steinway hall
