EDUCATION BILL.
British House of Lords Tearing II
Into Pieces.

London,-The House of Lords con-
tiIues to make far-reaching changes
in the education bill and in liberal
circles the opinion is expressed that
If the opposition continues in its pres
ent spirit the bill hardly viii be recog-
nized when it returns to the House of
Commons. Clause two, of the bill, was
completed Wednesday,, after radical
alterations, mostly by the large oppo-
sition majorities.
There is a distinct atmosphere of
tension in the upper house.
The sittings now present a brilliant
and imposing spectacle, and the House
of Lords is so crowded that members
of the opposition occupy consider
able portion of the government seats
and the peeresses throng their special
galleries. A number of peers who
have not been seen in the house for
many years are now regular attend
ants.
IL apparently has been determinec
that the ministry will not tamely sIo-
nit to the lords. This metamorphosis
was indicated by the president of the
Board of Trade, Lloyd-George, who.
speaking at Spalding Wednesday. de-
clared that the word of "re-editing''
the bill would terminate in a way prob
ably far from agreeable to the House
of Commons. A majority of the peers
were endeavoring to establish the
principle of compulsory religion, to
which the country would not submit.
1t was absolutely intolerabe, said
Mr. Lloyd-George, that the House of
LorGs should override the decisions of
the people at the last election. and the
government was determined 10 perse-
we're with the bill. The people had
ouJgrown the old system of cate
chisms and the old teachings that they
were to be humble and lowly before
their betters. They would no longer
be content, the president of the Board
OF Trade said. in conclusion with les
sons in class humility

Remarkable Fossils Near Ell Paso.

Ell Paso, Texas.-That this great
desert region was once jungle coun-
try is borne out by scientific discov-
cries just made here. Walter f.
Koch, fellow of the Geological So
ciery of London, and G. B. Richardson,
United States geological survey corps,
in excavations here, have unearthed
jaMbones of two tapirs. supposed to
have existed $4,000 years ago, and eie-
pnants' teeth, from animals living
about $1,000 years ago. The discovery
of tapirs' bones proves, they say, that
this section was once a Jungle. for
tapirs live on roots along river banks

PHILIPPINE ASSEMBLY.
President VIII Grant the Islands ReP.
resentative Government.

Washington.-The President is pre-
pairing to redeem his promise made
to the Philippine people, through Sec
rotary Taft, that they shall have par
lament Of their own, conditioned
upor their good behavior for a term
of two years, and it is understood that
Secretary Taft himself will proceed to
the Philippines next spring to witness
the installation of the new form of
representative government. On March
81, 1905. the Philippine census was
published and consequently two years
frcm that date, March 81, 1907, under
the terms of the act of Congress-. the
President will direct the Philippine
commission to call a general election
for the choice of delegates to what
will be known as the Philippine az
sembly
This body is to take over all legis-
lative powers heretofore exercised by
the Philippine commission in all parts
of the archipelago not inhabited by
Mcros and non-Christian tribes,
AS this date draws near the Phil
ippine people are showing signs of
agitation, and to the officials here 1t
is evident that they are expecting
some benefits that cannot at once be
realized. For instance, the assembly
of provisional governors recently in
session in Manila with the view to ar
ranging the preliminaries for the meet
ing of the Philippine assembly is re.
ported to have recommended that the
Suffrage be widely extended.
1t is pointed out here that this is
not possible. for the reason that the
act of Congress under which the as
sembly will be convened expressly
states the qualifications of voters,
These, in brief, are that the voter
must be at least twenty-three years OF
age (Which was the Spanish require
nenO; must be able to read and write
either Spanish or English; or must
own certain small amount of prop
erty or must have been in the past an
officeholder under the Spanish gov
eminent. These qualifications were
framed upon-the old Spanish practice
auds no Philippine assembly can
change them. The new assembly OF
Legislature will consist of two houses
to be known as the Philippine com
mission and the Philippine assembly,
the latter to consist of not less than
fifty nor more than 100 members. II
is probable that the present commits
s:on will be merged in the upper house

CHASING INDIANS.
Soldiers Have Lively Time With Utes
In Wyoming.

Sheridan, Wyo.-Soldiers of the
Tenth cavalry and band of Utes en-
gagged in struggle Wednesday over
the possession of a band of Indian
ponies. A troop of cavalry attempted
to capture fifty Indian ponies which
We're in care of five herders. AS the
soldiers approached, the herders fed,
but while the soldiers were driving off
the ponies, band of 100 Utes ap-
peared and circled the troops and
ponies. The yells of the savages STAN
peded the ponies and the entire bunch
was taken from the soldiers.
AS the Indians drove them away the
troopers fired voiley at the ponies,
killing five. 1t is said to he the inten-
tion of the military to attempt to un-
horse the Utes by capturing or killing
their ponies.
Another troop of the Tenth encoun-
tered ten Crows. under Chief Sweet
Mouth, accompanied by small num-
ber of Cheyennes. These were turned
toward the Grow agency, as they prom
listed a peaceful hunting trip.
Trainmen entering Sheridan tell of
seeing band of 100 Sioux marching
this way along the railroad, but this is
not believed.
A squad of the Tenth cavalry to-day
fell in with band of Cheyenne In
dians who. on representation that
they were hunting. were allowed to go
in peace.
Settlers charge that Indian guides
employed by the federal troops are act
ing treacherously and leading the
troops on false trails to keep the SOL

Every one of the 5000 school chill

noon donated l cent toward the pur-
chase OF a number of beautiful floral
offerings, which were sent to General
Paimer's residence at Glen Eyrie this
evening. No movement of the kind
was ever known in the history Of the
city wherein each pupil in all the pub
lie schools participated.
The suggestion came from Superin-
tendent John Dietrich. and met with
a spontaneous response on the part of
the pupils. The flowers consisted of
chrysarthemums, roses and carna-
tions The gift is especially appropri-
ate in view of the fact that General
Palmer's wife, now deceased, was the
first school teacher in this city. She
established a school in 1871, shortly
after the townsite of Colorado Springs
was laid out by General Palmer, and
long before the organization of a city
school system.
The following note accompanied the
flowers:
please accept this floral offering
from the boys and girls of the schools
of Colorado Springs. Permit them all
to convey to you, in some degree, the
esteem in which you are held in the
hearts and minds of the children of
our public schools. 1t is with deep re-
gret that we have learned of the sad

He looked like a new man, and the doc tor told him so. "Yes, doctor, your advice certainly did the business. l went to bed early and did all the oth- CT things you told me. But, say, doc tor. that one cigar a day almost killed me at first. It's no joke starting in to smoke at my time of life"

AT THE SUMMER HOTEL.
Experience of Winston Churchill Fa-
 miliar to Many.

Winston Churchill in an address that he made in Concord recently praised the New Hampshire farmer.
 Ours" he said. 'is a state fitted above all others for summer resort. New Hampshire, with its superb eli mate, it's mountains, its lakes and forests, will in a generation or two be one great pleasure ground-a vast park, dotted with beautiful villas, to which will come each summer fam flies from all parts of America.
 Tn anticipation of this many farm CTS are learning to conduct hotels. They are building cottages for sum- mer visitors Some of them, too, are taking 5oarders.
 And I am glad to say that the New Hampshire farmer is in a position to take boarders, because, unlike the farmers in other states that I could name, he does not send all his good things to the city. I once boarded at fine big farm, but the fare was wretched-canned vegetables, con- densed milk and so on
 By love- said one morning at breakfast, as I pushed my egg cup from me. these eggs are really not as fresh as those get in New York

LOOSE TEETH
Made Sound by Eating Grape-Nuts.

Proper food nourishes every part of the body, because Nature selects the different materials from the food we eat, to build bone, nerve, brain, mus cle, teeth, etc.
 All we need is to eat the right kind of food slowly, chewing it velour digestive organs take 1t up into the through the body, to every little nook and corner.
 If some one would ask you, Is Grape-Nuts good for loose teeth?" you'd probably say, NO, l don't see how it could be-" But a woman in Ontario writes:
 For the past two years have used Grape-Nuts Food with most excellent results It seems to take the place of medicine in many ways, builds up the nerves and restores the health generally.
 "A little Grape-Nuts taken before re- tiring soothes my nerves and gives sound sleep" Because it relieve ir- ritability of the stomach nerves, being a predigested food.) Before I used Grape-Nuts my teeth were loose in the gums. They were so bad I was afraid they would some day all fall out Since l have used Grape Nuts I have not been bothered any more with loose teeth.
 All desire for pastry has disappear ed and I have gained in health, weight and happiness since I began to use Grape Nuts" Name given by Postum O., Battle Creek, Mich. Get the fa- nous little book, "The Road to We'll yille,' in pkgs. There's reason
