WHY ELASTIC TIRES LIFT DUST
Particles Are Prevented From Spring.
ing Until Raised From Ground
by Forward Movement

The following explanation is given
by motor experts why all elastic driv-
ing tires lift dust:
Cars are propelled by stress through
these tires. With cars at rest tires are
compressed vertically by the Vehicles S
weight. When stress is applied by
starting the tires are strained tangen-
TALLY, the rubber in front of the wheel
being compressed, and that behind
where 1t leaves the ground is stretched
in both directions parallel to the rim.
AS the car moves forward the partl-
cles of the tire in front as they come
under the wheel are brought into a
state of tangential compression.
The roughness of the road and the
driving power of the engine prevent
these PARTICLES from springing back
until the forward movement of the car
raises them from the ground.
Then they suddenly change their
state of tangential compression to one
of tangential tension; that is. they
move rapidly backward along the rim
to recover their original position.
In so doing the tire scrapes or sweeps
the road surface, and carries up the
lighter dust. The difference of the
speed of alternate compression and
stretching is the speed at which the tire
sweeps the dust to the rear. Small
stones are overturned, and all finer
particles are projected backward and
upward Therein the tires are worse
than a sweeping brush, which smothers
some Of the dust 1t raises. while the
tire retreats and leaves the dust free
to rise.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 1.-Pres-
ident Roosevelt confided great secret
to Representative J. Adam Bede of
Minnesota today. He called the repre-
sentative aside and whispered earnestly
a long time to him and then slapped
him on the back. The door of the
presidents room was open and other
members Of congress saw all this.
Representative Bede started out look
ing mysterious and as he reached the
door turned and said to the president:
"Can have one of them?'
81 think it can be arranged" the
president answered.
"Now, Bede, what is there on?''
pleaded one of his Jealous colleagues.
II don't know that I'm at liberty to
tell" Mr.. Bede said.
But I'm going to take a chance.
Come over here where no one will over
hear me-"
The two walked to secluded corner
of the building and after pledging his
colleague to secrecy Bede whispered.
You don't tell" the representative
said in amazement.
Eyes, sir, told me himself-six OF
them" said Mr.. Bede.
That let the secret out. for all who
overheard the remark knew instantly
that Slippers, the famous six-toed cat
of the White House, has had kittens.

Carmen" without music: Carmen"

the Orpheum this week gives
To reduce an opera three hours long
into thirty-minute sketch, is what
the writer of Miss Bergere's Carmen"
has done. yet the lines are the least
important part of II.
Miss Bergere could make pantomne

as instinct with the spirit of Carmen
as II It were presented by Conrled's
grand opera people.
Life, abundant, careless. pulsing with
animation Is the heart of Carmen"
passion and pride are its soul.
The support of Miss Bergere is not all
that could be desired, and the Don

Carmen" is more worth while than
anything produced at the Orpheum re-
Gently.
Eva Nudge, the Military Maid, has
another of the really good acts this
week. The pretty little performer sings
several catchy songs and makes some
wonderfully quick changes. Her clos
ing "Highwayman" act is most pleas
ing. Miss Mudge's slkit is well staged.
Edwin Stevens and Miss Marshal
have rather amusing sketch which is
called "a Night Out" Stevens gives
two good songs, his French drinking
song sounded especially well. The hold
overs are Charles r. Sweet, whose act
is amusing; "The Expressman" is bet
ter than last week, the dialogue having
been changed considerably, and the
ending much improved. The Victor

The majority of cases of kidney
trouble are caused. indirectly by the
careless drinking of water. Indigestion
is a promoter of kidney trouble and is
often caused by drinking large quanti-
ties of water with meals. which chills
the muscles of the stomach, weakens
the gastric juice and renders the di-
gestive organs unfit to perform their
work properly. At least five glasses
of water should be taken during a day,
one upon rising, one half an hour or
more before each meal and one upon
retiring. Water drunk with meals
sparingly.

SILBERT OPERA
COMPANY PRESENTS
"JEWISH KEAN''

"The Jewish Kean" was the offering
o ftht Silbert Yiddish Opera company
at the Mason last evening and the per-
formance was greeted even more en-
Enthusiastically than was the initial ap-
pearance of the company Sunday night.
"The Jewish Kean' would If 1t were
told in English doubtless be one Of the
strong tragedies.
The first scene is laid in Roumania
and the plot deals with theatrical peo-
pie, Sigmund Glass, a theatrical direc-
tor Sany Glass, his wife, the prima
donna of the company, and their child
Booky, the comedian of the company,
and Natalie Blum, a soubrette, furnish
the comedy part of the drama. Akslis
who is the william actor of the company,
is also the william in the piece.
In some respects the beginning and
the end of the tragedy are similar to
those of the opera "Pagaliacci." Akslis,
the william, entices Sany Glass from her
husband with the promise that he will
take her to America and make her a
great Drima donna at the head Of her
own company. She leaves her hus-
band, takes their child and goes to
America. Landing in New York the
william is forced through the rules of
the theatrical union to undergo an ex-
animation before entering the profess
sion. He cannot pass and does not
keep his promise to the woman he has
brought with him. The husband fol-
lows them and the sight of his child
drives him crazy. From one place to
another he follows them, earning what
he can by singing from door to door.
By means of a coin thrown from his
daughter, who is prisoner in house.
he learns of their whereabouts, shoots
his wife and the man who has taken
her from him, shoots himself and dies
in the arms of his child.
M. G. Silbert, as Sigmund Glass, is
strong and at the close of the third act
he does an especially fine piece Of work.
Mr.. Weissman, as the william, shows
much dramatic power.

UNPOPULAR LAW
IS PROMULGATED
ANOTHER AFFRONT FOR RUS
SIAN LIBERAL PARTY
Prevents Interference of Parliament
in Concluding Loans-Further Pro-
tects Crown Properties - One
Modification Meets Favor
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, May S.-An-
other of the kaleidoscope changes in
the political situation to which Russia
is becoming accustomed occurred late
last night, when with utter Unexpected
ness the draft of the fundamental law,
which was supposed to have perished
with the Witte regime, was officially
promulgated and made the permanent
basis of the Russian state unalterable
except on the initiative of Emperor
Nicholas or his successor.
Though the draft from the funda-
mental law has undergone considerable
editing and numerous changes have
been made to it, in essence 1t remains
identical with the project telegraphed
to the Associated Press on April "a.
which evoked a storm of anger and
condemnation by the dominant liberal
party
VIII Arouse Anger
Published at the present instant when
the people have been led to believe that
the unpopular draft had been dropped
and that the dismissal of the old
cabinet was accepted as an indication
of the desire on the part of the govern
ment to join hands with the national
parliament. the news will arouse still
greater Indignation and threatens to
undo all the work of Prof Milukoff and
other constitutional Democratic lead-
ers in the cause of moderation.
The only modification in the constitu-
tion, as published, which meets with
favor is the elimination of the provis-
ion empowering the emperor to fix
salaries and pensions of officials thereby
subjecting even the judiciary to the
possibility of undue financial influence.
All the other changes are in the direc-
tion of further buttressing the i'm
perial power, protecting the crown
lands and properties from interference
by the parliament and giving the em-
peror power to conclude loans inde-
pendently should the parliament refuse
to pass the budget.

MEN OUT OF CHURCHES.

why Men Stay Away From Church
as Told by Themselves" was the sub
ject Of an address delivered before g
meeting of ministers of the Presbyter
ian church in Cincinnati by the Rev
Charles E. Walker, of Hartwell.
The Rev. Walker made an extensive
canvass of church absentees by mai
asking why they staid away from ser
vices. Each of those who answered
he said, gave one or more Of the fol
lowing five excuses:
Work six days and reserve Sunday
for recreation.
Church members TOO cold to make
him feel welcome.
Church members 40 not show a
willingness to pay debts.
Preachers sermons are ancient and
uninteresting.
Too many hypocrItes in the church
The Dubuque Times suggests that
the authors of these five excuses
should have added sixth-lack OF
faith. The Times argues that the
man who believes that attendance al
church is essential to his salvation
will not absent himself for any of the
FIVE reasons cited.
