DR.. Schaefer, OF Berlin, speaking
before the German Surgical Society on
bis experience during the Russo-Japa-
nese war, said that after the battle of
Mukden he examined more than 1000
wounded Russians. The percentage
Of those dying from rifle bullet
wounds was the smallest and sur
prisingIy large portion Of the wound
ed were fit in short time for active
service.
Three months after the battle OF
Mukden half the wounded of the army
corps to which DIR: Schaefer was at.
tached were cured. The percentage
rose in some regiments to 20 per cent
The results were so surprising that
Russian general Of division tried te
forbid further investigations, saying
that the world would laugh at thu
fact that the Japanese had beaten thu
Russians while the former were usini

Fifteen minutes later, when the su

fourteen meek masculine Infants
seated sedately In a tightly squeezes
row before the teacher, every eye fixet
inquiringly on the lady's bright coun

To Walk Well.

Walk slowly.
Don't comfort.
Hold your chin up.
Wear thin stockings.
Don't swing your arms.
Hold your shoulders back.
Then study your figure.
Don't swing your shoulders.
Don't wear tight, short shoes.
Let your feet down at right angles.
Don't try to wiggle when you walk.
Don't twist yourself In sinuous mo-
lions.
Have your shoes a little too narrow
and a little too long.
Once in a while have fresh kid
lining pasted In your shoes.

ed little person may be "cute." but she
isn't graceful.

Hiding Her Love.

1t may not be unmaidenly of a girl
to love before she is asked, but it is
certainly unmaidenly of her to let the
fact be suspected. And did she real
lie how quickly she drops In the APP
probation of all who know her, she
would certainly be more circumspect in
her behavior. Unfortunately, some
girls do not scruple to do all they
can to attract the man upon whom
their choice has fallen. Instead of al
lowing him his prerogative of wooing
and winning, an infatuated girl will
show him only too plainly how very
welcome are his attentions.
1t is not surprising that onlookers
pour scathing criticism upon the girl
who by her own conduct robs herself
OF the joy OF being ardently wooed
A diffident lover may keep from pro-
posing long after he has reused q kin.

KELLY THE ROBBER"
TOOK HIS OWN LIFE

Colorado Springs. Colo, Nov. 24.-The
identity of Mike Kelly. who committed
suicide in the county Jail yesterday, has
been discovered and the discovery prac-
ticaIly proves the theory that he was one
of the three divide bandits.
Kelly was known for many years at
Colorado City and in the Ute pass region
as Kelly the RObber." He was a bad
man, and is known to have been working
in the vicinity of Divide for the past few
weeks. Kelly evidently knew that posse
was out after him. and the fear of cap
ture, combined with the hardship of his
night and day of wandering in the snow
vide doubtless affected his mind and
caused him to become insane. He was
found wandering in this city Wednesday
night raving about a hundred men chas-

building materials. Bricks, window
glass, structural iron, lime and cement,
mineral paints and all the things need
ed in the construction world are listed
under the commodity rate cuts. This
means much for the industrial growth
Of Utah. To convert the varied re-
sources of Utah into wealth. mills and
factories are needed. Under the less
cred cost of bringing the materials
needed to erect these mills and facto-
ries from eastern centers, independent
enterprises can be made realities. These
are a few general results which the
freight reduction means for Utah. The
list of freights and commodities includ-
ed in the cuts holds many other prom
Uses
Important Cuts Made.
AS an example, the agricultural de-
velopments of Utah receives encourag e-
ment by the new rates as the cost of
bringing implements from Peoria and
common points is now IL cents lower
than heretofore. Another reduction
worthy of special notice is that made
upon mining supplies, especially blast
ing powder. In consignments of 10000
pounds or more. the new rate from all
points, known as shipping centers,
is 20 cents per hundred pounds
less than the old rate A minimum cut
OF 90 cents per hundred POUNDS mas
been made on household goods This
reduction is doubly important as the
cuts made upon all freight with the eX-
ception of green hides, applies both to
eastbOund and westbound movement
With the colonist movement toward the
west growing yearly, this reduction
means much to the thousands of fami-
lies who come west to make their homes
here, and naturally bring their worldly
possessions with them. The rates, both
old and new, between Utah common
points and the eastern centers (Chicago
common points, Peoria common points,
Mississippi common points, st. Paul
common points and Missouri common
points,, follow in order: Old $3.50, new
$40; old $2.25, new $1.65; old 81 20, new
$3.50; old $3.50, new S1.70; old 81, new
$1.10. The last reduction made on
freight carried between Utah common
points and Missouri common points is
90 cents. (Freight rates apply to 100
pOunds.)
The cuts in the ten classified rates
differ widely. Freight under class A
has been reduced cents from former

LOWERED RATES
NOW EFFECTIVE
Freight Reductions Offered by

Points and East.
CUTS ARE SUBSTANTIAL
DEALERS LOSE ONE EXCUSE FOR
ABNORMALLY HIGH PRICES.

Sweeping freight reductions. adopted
several months ago by the Hartman
lines, became effective yesterday morn
ing and are now in full force. While
there is a saving offered to shippers
of from 10 cents TO 81 per hundred
pounds in this wide cut. the real ben
eft defies figures. Shippers can now
import almost any class Of freight from
the big eastern supply centers at lower
freight cost than ever offered before.
In the past dealers in all sorts of wares
have met any question regarding high
prices by referring to high freight
rates. There has been wide differences
Between the market prices Of nnerchan-
disc in Utah and states to the east, and

Building Material Included.
The reductions made apply, as has
been explained before, TO nearly every
thing from wearing apparel to building
material. Edibles can be brought into
Salt Lake or other Utah markets at
freight costs ranging from 8 TO so cents
less than old rates per hundred pounds.
Wearing apparel can be brought here
