c. Cannon, speaker of the house of representatives, had no opposition for nomination.
 For the first time in the history of Illinois all the primaries of all the parties were held on the same day, and voters were given an opportunity to express their preferences through the ballots for candidates for United States senator and to nominate by instruction other candidates from congressman down to sheriff.
 The new primary law passed by . special session of the legislature last spring gave general satisfaction.
 Congressman William Lorimer of the Sixth backing house. district and Congressman James R. Mann of the Second district both secured large ma. jorities in their districts. In both these districts the feeling was intense. Lori mer was bitterly assailed because of his defense of the packers during the debate on the meat bill' last spring. Mann was one of the chief opponents of the pure food bill and was strongly opposed by the packing interests.

New Use for Electricity.

A simple electrical means of puri lying water for home use has been devised by a French engineer. The apparatus takes up very little space. It consists of small closed box, which contains an ozone developer, an interrupter. and a tin tube. Con. nection is made with an ordinary lighting circuit by fitting a plug into an incandescent socket, and when cur. rent Is turned on ozone Is generated. This passes through the tube into a cotton stopper. to free it from the dust and germs contained in the air. and Is then conducted into tbe water and mixed with it. The mixer is q most important feature of the appar. atus. Sixty gallons of water can thus be purified in an hour. at the cost of ordinary lighting

OLD OVERLAND STAGE
COACH WHICH CARRIED PEOPLE
 ACROSS ARIZONA PLAINS.
Eloquent Reminder of Pioneer Days in the WestLWas Held Up by Rob- bers and Indians Nearly
 200 Times.

New York.-The accompanying H. lustration shows an old-time stage coach of the Buffalo Bill variety. It formerly belonged to the Wells Fargo Overland Stage company, which made wonderful trips across the plans. drawing up in front of the principal hotel of each town stuck full of arrows and bullets from redskins and stage robbers lying in wait along the route. ,, Talk of heroes and those immortals of Balaklava days! They are not in it with the gents" of the plains. who never showed fear. While being scalped. skinned alive or filled full of holes for their money they, would "pass in their chips" with smiles on their faces.
 The particular stage in the illustra- tion is one of the old Wells.Fargo ve- hicles which ran between Phoenix. Maricopa county. and Prescott. Yav- apai county. Ariz.
 Of all the stages on the southern line. this particular vehicle became distinguished because 1t had been held up by Arizona stage robbers and In- dians 184 times in the course of its 20 years service. It is a well made, honest stage. that can withstand near ly ten "hold ups' year for 20 years. It is said that so much Arizona "pizen" was spilled by travellers in the vehi- cle that the coaches became thorough ly seasoned and nothing short of giant powder could Jar them.
 Drivers and guards were always armed-armed to the teeth. they called 1t. with an extra gun or two in each boot and bowie knife in the belt. Having round ups" with train robbers was part of the weekly business. and the first thing the helpers" did while the horses were changing at relay sta tions was to pull out arrows and dig for bullets and make note of 1t to tell the next stage load of tourists and prosepectirs that came that way.
 Wells. Fargo { Co. did just as much Tor the country and civilization in those days ss any armed regiment of soldiers. They employed brave men at Cheyenne in the early days. Once in that town. called the wickedest city

THE OLD STAGE COACH.

on earth-and 1t had 5000 desperadoes and a thousand ~or two red-headed women from Australia who could dance IS hours without faintiug-word went around that the worst gang in Wyoming was going to attack the treasure to arrive that night. It was Q rich cargo of gold dust and coin that the express company was hurryins across the plains.
 The manager wasn't frightened a bit. He put the treasure in a round- house made of timbers. almost air tight. and pierced with holes on every side. just large enough for man to sight his gun through. Twenty men, each with sawed-off gun and several kegs of slugs and powder were piled in on top of the treasure and the men told to shoot everything in sight.
 The plaza in front of the hotel was cleared, and about two o'clock next morning the attack opened and the defenders began pumping lead into the invaders. It was a great fight and for few minutes there was . continuous roar of rifles and shotguns. The air was mixed with fire, slugs and old nails. The boys won a great victory for the express company and 1t was nearly week before they be- gan hanging thieves again to the tele- graph poles along the principal streets of the town. All the residential thieves had been killed. The Method ist preacher who presided there said he never had so fourishing a congre- gallons and so easy time as when he saw new man swinging from . rope every day he went downtown to get his mail.
 The old stage coach shown in the picture is an eloquent reminder of those wonderful days of the pony ex- press and stage coach when half the world was ''hoofng'' 1t across the plains.

Negro Dempster,s Fourth victim,

WASHINGTON, Pa. Aug. 8.-Rob- ert Edward Pearce, three years old, who was shot by the negro Elmer Dempster, died of hemorrhages caus- ed by the bullet wound. The child was wounded at the time Dempster killed Mrs. Pearce and two other chill dren. Although Robert was in crit ical condition, he was thought to be recovering from the wound until he became worse and died suddenly. Dempster. who is in Jail here, when told of the death of his fourth victim, manifested no interest in the case. The death of the child has rekindled the bitter feeling against the negro in the neighborhood.

tempt to Stop All Tramc. ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 6.-The fate of the general strike, which, al- though 1t has affected close to 1000 men in St Petersburg. has met with only slight response in other sections of Russia, probably will be decided soon with an adverse expression of public opinion The lack of union among the leaders of the proletariat organizations is playing against the success of the movement.
 The railroad men, upon whom the success of the entire movement de- bends, are still working full time. The leaders of the railroad organizations are hesitating about issuing a call for "a tieup. They fear being deserted and discreted by their materialistic follow CTS, who are no more responsive to the avowed pretext of this strike namely, sympathy with the mutineers of Sveaborg, Cronstadt and Revelythan they were to the similar reasons given for the abortive strike of last Novem- Der. The railroad men have been in- timidated by the recent making of strikes affecting communications and penal offenses and providing very se- were punishment.
 The Council of Workmen's Deputies, which met secretly at Terioki, Fin land, continued its session till late hour. The deputies were so incensed at the timidity displayed by the rail- road men that they decided to resort, if necessary, to the blowing up of bridges and the destruction of the roadbeds, etc, to bring the transporta- tion service to a standstill. Representa- tives of all the revolutionary parties and emlssaries from Moscow, Kiev. Riga. Odessa and other cities were present at the meeting. The teleg- raphers thus far have been appealed to in vain.
 The revolutionists claim to have pos itive information that conference of the chiefs of the military and secret police was held here, at which the question of whether or not the troops will obey orders to fire on the people was considered. The officers express ed grave doubt as to whether the sol. diers, especially those of the guard regiments, would obey without provo cation.
 At Donets. the center of the mining and smelting industry, procession of more than 5000 strikers marched, sing ing ''The Marseillaise." to the residence of Governor General Hartung and de- manded the release of the orators ar rested at strikers meeting. Many in the procession carried clubs. The gov ernor general refused to release the prisoners, and when the processionists would not disperse dragons swept down on them with sabers and whips, wounding about a hundred. some seri- ously. Wholesale arrests were made, including the strike leaders.
 At Samara the fighting organization of the revolutlonists has issued . proc. lamation avowing responsibility for the assassination of Governor Block of this city. Many arrests have been made. The governors body was torn into fragments by the bomb.

DOUMA FOR IRELAND

 Rule Measure.
CABINET FRAMING PROVISIONS.
King Edward Ready to Give Ills Assent to Act For Erin's Self Gov.
 eTnment-House of Lords
 Opposes It,

LONDON, Aug. 6.-The new Liberal parliament has adjourned.
 Besides the principal measure before the house of commons, the education bill, almost all the measures promised in the kings opening speech either were passed or forced to an advanced stage in committee, which will permit their being finished at the autumn ses- sion, when the government will propose to appropriate all the time of the house to government business.
 It is not to be doubted that the Lib eral leaders propose to carry out every pledge made to their Irish and Labor allies in parliament. It is announced by T. P. O'Connor that the next great measure by Sir Henry Campbell Ban. herman will be a home rule bill for Ireland. The government now has a select committee framing the provi. sions of this proposed act. A native parliament will not be included in the new bill, but county boards will re- ceiye broad local powers now invested
 
 in the house of commons. The Nation. alists are wholly satisfied with Ban. nernian's proposal They regard 1t as the final step toward absolute home rule and recognize that the Liberal leaders have gone to the farthest point of legislation acceptable to the English people.
 It is recognized that the house of lords will reject the Irish bill. King Edward is known to favor its provi. sions in general way, and therefore his influence may be counted with Ban. herman, Churchill and the other cabi. net members. The house of lords will not surrender on this Irish legislation, and constitutional crisis is looked for that may settle the future powers of the upper house. Discussing this fea. ture. one of the Liberal leaders said:
 The new Irish bill will be sent to the lords early next spring. It will have the united support of Liberals, Labor men, Nationalists and Irish Conserva- lives
