You can soon make him under

how soon your faithful Tray will
become very civil and polite ex-

and then he will perform his
part thoroughly. Teach him
that barking dogs never bite but
that they do annoy their neigh
bors and jar the sensitive nerves
of children and invalids.

Troops and Strikers Fight.

A conflict between troops and strikers
occurred near Lens, France, yesterday.
The strikers, marching from LEVIN,
sacked the residence of a mine official,
and tearing down the shutters used them
as shields against the weapons OF the
soldiers, a number of whom were injured
by missiles.
The troops were compelled TO call for
reinforcements and cavalry charges fol-
lowed. The strikers sought refuge be-
hind the railroad embankment and
erected a barricade, from which position
they were dislOdged by gendarmes. A
number of miners were wounded. After
this collision the crowds marched through
the town singing revolutionary songs.
The market at LEVIN was partially pill
LACED and the dealers fed.
Strikers during the day attacked a
train conveying sslvsgers and stoned the
escort of cavalry, %wOunding several oil
the troopers.
Fighting between troops and strikers
continued throughout the afternoon. The
strikers finally retired behind a barri-
cade. from the shelter of which they
showered stones upon the soldiers. After
n time a magistrate read the riot act and
the soldiers loaded their rifles with bail
cartridges. whereupon the strikers dis
persed. o.u,
injured. The situation is very grave.

No Action Taken.

With considerable i'll feeling and no
agreement on ony phase of the contro-
yersy on the railroad-rate bill a confer
ence of democratic Senators, which con-
tinued practically AL day Yesterday, was
adiournsd at 4:45 o'clock without any
date having been liked for another gath
er.ng.
Speeches were made couHseling an
agreement on some amendment or TO sup
port the House bill without amendment,
party harmony being urgei as judiciou-
politics. THIS programme, tentatively.
was adopted. Senator Bailey then called
from the room some of the supporters
of his amendments for Il limited court
review and for uO%nsuspension OF orders
of the Interstate Commerce Commission.
During their consult ,tion a motion TO adj
ionrn was made by Senator Rfyner and
carried.
When Senator Bailey and his col
lesgues returned they found the confer
enc broken up. The Texas Senator
protested holly sgainst the course taken,
and said, finally, that he W Is tempted 10
take a vow not to participate in another
democratic conference.
The general expression OF opinion,
however, was hat the differences would
be smoothed over, and that with n a fe"
days another effort would be made to get
the minority together.

OPEN PUBLICITY THE BEST

his patients fully into his confidence by
frankly and fearlessly publishing broad

best possible evidence that he Is not

tigation turned full upon his formula
and that it will bear the fullest scrutiny
and the most thorough investigation.

harmless, and serves a valuable purpose
by possessing intrinsic value all its own,
and besides it enhances the curative
