Now that there has been a demand
FOR the enforcement OF certain city or

lapse, is It not time to do something
about the one forbidding persons
riding bicycles on the sidewalks?
This rule was formerly well en-
forced and offenders were frequently
caught and fined but it has almost be-
come dead letter because the police
are negligent, even on well paved
streets, where there is not the slight
est excuse for riding on the sidewalks

A Vindication for DR.. Pierce.
Decision by the Supreme Court of the
State, Against the Ladies' Home
journal.

A verdict has been rendered in
favor of the plaintiff in the libel suit
brought against the Ladies Home
Journal published by the Curtis Pub
fishing Coz by the Worlds Dis
pensary Medical Association, of which
DR.. R. v. Pierce is president. The
suit was brought by Doctor Pierce
against the Curtis Publishing Co..
for making false statements about one
Of his standard family medicines
known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription. In the May number of the
Ladies' Home Journal $500, Mr.. Ed
ward Box. the editor, stated that DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription con-
tanned alcohol and some other harm
full ingredients, and DR.. Pierce had
in the action alleged that the defend
ant maliciously published this article
containing such false and defamatory
matter. DR.. Pierce further claimed
that no alcohol is or ever was con-
tanned in his "Favorite Prescription"
that said medicine was a vegetable
preparation and contained no dele
terious ingredients whatever; that Mr..
Bol's statement, pretending to give
some of the ingredients of said medi-
cine, was wholly and absolutely
false. During the trial, the Vice.
President of the Worlds Dispensary
Medical Association stated, that the
ingredients of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription were extracted from the
following native roots: Golden Seal,
Blue Cohosh, Lady's Slipper, Black
Cohosh and Unicorn, by means OF
pure glycerine. He was asked how
he knew, az a physician and ex-
perienced medical man, that the "Fa-
vorite Prescription" was cure for
the diseases peculiar to women, such
as amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, ante
version retro-version, and he stated
that he knew such was the fact be-
cause of his professional experience
and the many thousands of women
whose ills had been cured by this
Prescription" The Vice-President,
being asked to give his authorities.
read from the standard works, such
as the United States Dispensatory,
The American Dispensatory and many
other standard medical books.
The retraction printed by the Cur
tbs Publishing Company two months
after the libelOus statement appeared
and nearly two months after the suit
had been begun stated definitely that
analyses had been made at their re-
quest and that the ''Favorite Prescrip-
ton" did not contain either alcohol,
opium or digitalis.

numbers of Jewish and Russian emil
grants to the United States and South
America are expected to leave Ger
many after Easter, and an influential
committee has been formed here with
the object of directing the emigration
to the best places. So far as the Uni

throughout Russia advising emigrants
to avoid New York and all eastern
states and committees will be formed
at Galveston, New Orleans, Baltimore
and other southern seaports which,
cooperating with committees in the
interior; will direct emigrants to
places where they can work at their
trades. The committee here has been
informed that many Jews who are
well-to-do are preparing to go to the
United States.

SUED FOR s3,37O,3A.66.
PRESIDENT MccuRoY CALLER
ON TO REIMBURSE.

New York, March &C. = The first
complaint in series of eight actions
already begun by the Mutual Life In
surance Company against former
President Richard A. McCurdy, his
son, Robert H.. and the firm of Char
les NJ. Raymond & Co., the company's
former metropolitan agents, were
made public
The particular complaint is against
former President McCurdy, and con-
tains nine separate causes of action.
In each Mr. McCurdy is charged with
the waste of large sums of money be-
longing to the company through alleg-
ed unfaithfulness and neglect in the
discharge of his duties. Damages
amounting to s3.250,OO0 are demand
ed. 20
The first five causes seek recovery
in the aggregate of $685., 500, as alleg-
ed contributions to political parties
since January l. 1885. These contri-
| buttons are stated to have been
| $4,000 in 1896, $4,000 in 1900 and
| $4,000 in 1904, to the national Re-
| publican campaign committee; $4,000
in 1904 to the Republican con-
gressional committee, and 100000
| embracing the various contributions
testified to by Senator Plat as hav-
| ing been made to the New York Re-
publican state committee since Janu-
airy l, 1888.
The sixth cause seeks to recover
the sum of s225,000, embracing the
| $4,000 alleged increase of annual sal
airy drawn by the former president
since June 1, 1901, without authority
as is claimed. ttiilt1tt,+f.
The seventh cause seeks to recover
| 100000 as the aggregate of the re-
spective sums of $4,000 drawn quar-
terly from the company for the last
six years of Mr. McCurdy's presi-
dency, on the voucher of the commit
tee on expenditures and under circum-
stances detailed in the testimony be-
fore the Armstrong committee.
The eighth cause deals with the re-
| lations of Louis A. Thebaud, son-in-
law of ex-President McCurdy, with
| Raymond & Co., and the ''gratuities
and rates of commission" received By
| the firm.
The final cause of action deals with
the sum of s1,2S2,S4t received by
| Robert H. McCurdy as commissions
from 1886 to November. 1905. as SUI
| perintendent of the foreign depart
ment and charges that by reason of
unfaithfu1uaSS and neglect by the
former president these commissions
i had been allowed at rates which the
enormous increase in the foreign bust
ness had rendered exorbitant and I'M
| necessary. 50
Finally the company demands judg.
ment against ex-President McCurdy
for the sum of s3,37O,341.GG with in
terest, as damages for alleged unfaith-
fulness and neglect.

GERMANY IS GAMER

CONFERENCE FAiLo.

AnsIo-Freneh Convention is Frustrat-
edit No Agreement Is Reached
American and Austrian Proposals
May Be introduced.

Algeciras, Spain, March &c. = The
commission on revision has drawn up
a project for police. without mention
will form the basis for discussion in
the plenary conference The Ameri-
can and Austrian proposals will be in
troduced only if a settlement is not
otherwise attainable. The necessity
of their introduction now seems i'm
probable.
The present situation resulting
from the pour parlers may be sum-
med up as follows:
Germany will abandon Cascablanca
and also the allotment of the ports on
condition that the powers of the in
spectors are extended and compensa-
ton is given her in the shape of an
extra share in the bank on the effort
to obtain which France must pre-
viously assure her, Germany not wish
on her own initiative. France con-
siders these terms advantageous and
is prepared to accede to them, pro-
vided Germany will agree before hand
to support the Introduction in the con-
ference of an acceptable solution of
the remaining controversial points.
In case a definite arrangement in
this direction is concluded before
Monday it will only remain for the
conference to ratify it. Opposition to
it is not expected. A delegate of a
neutral power may, however. object
to granting an extra bank share to
Germany, in which case the opportun-
ity will occur to consider the alterna-
tive Austrian and American schemes.
Berlin.-The German government is
evidently veXed at some of the latest
claims put forth by the French gov
eminent. The Cologne Gazette, in an
inspired Berlin dispatch, refers to NJ.
Regnault's attempt to secure for
France control over the Moroccan Gus
toms administration, and says:
These are petty annoyances which
must be regarded as a challenge to
Germany's patience"
The dispatch concludes with the
declaration that if France persists in
making trouble and in insincerity,
Germany could not advise further con-
ciliatory steps, for the proof would be
clear that argument was prevented by
the other side.

WILHELMINA WHEN A CHILD.

An amusing story is told of Queen
Wilhelmina when she was quite lit
tie child. Her majesty was not allow
ed to share dinner with the elder
members of the royal household, but
was permitted to make her appear
ance at dessert and place herself be-
side some particular favorite. One
day she sat by a courtly old general,
and after eating some fruit the little'
girl turned and gazed at him. Pres
emily she exclaimed:
Il wonder you're not afraid to sit
next to me-"
Everybody in the room turned at
the sound of her childish treble.
''On the contrary, l am but too
pleased and honored to sit next to
my little queen" replied the old gen.
eral. But why should be afraid?"
Assuming woebegone expression,
the little queen replied:
Because all my dolls have the
measles; they're all of them down
with it,"
