TO INDUCE REsTFUL SLEEP.


 In the ability to obtain restful sleep there is much yariableness in the same person at different times and under different influences. Profound sleep is generally more refreshing than light slumber, but the fact that one can be reused without difficulty does not all ways signify that his rest is deficient. Quiet slumber is always more restful than sleep that is broken by dreams, even though the dreams be so light as not to be impressed upon the memory. The character of sleep is affected by many influences, both mental and physical. The person who, upon retir- ing for the night, fails to put away the cares of the day that is past or Dor rows the thoughts of the morrow, is slow to reach the depths of sleep and wakes but little refreshed.
 An overtilled stomach prevents sound sleep, but hunger should be relieved before retiring, and for this purpose there is nothing better than a glass of warm milk.
 The bed should be smooth, but neith- CT LOO nara nor too sort; the position of the body preferably lying on the right side, with the head not too high, and the disposition of the limbs such as not to impede the circulation of the blood, It is generally better not to in- terfere with the fantastic attitudes of little children until they have slept a while; but the head must never be per- mitted to remain covered.
 For a waReful child warm bath at bedtime is better than drugs, and usu- ally more effective; and 1t is a safe rule for older persons also to refrain from taking medicines to induce sleep until after they have tested the efica- cy of the warm bath.-Youth's Com panion.

HAIR CUT ON A BRIDGE.
Evidence That. Saved Man Accused of
 Murder.

Evidence That. Saved a Man Accused of Murder.
 Literally speaking, the life of Hugh Criggan of Inniscreenery charged yes terday at BelfastAssizes with the mur- der of farmer named John Gardiner tlutsg upon 5 thread. The police based their case upon a human hair, thread and whiskey bottle.
 The two menphad attended a sports meeting at Lisnaskea and were SUD- posed to have started together for home. Gardiner was never again seen alive, but there was evidence of a struggle having taken place at Bally- lnadarragh Bridge, over which they
 would have passed.
 At this spot Gardiner's broken um-
 brena was picked up the following day and his dead body, with a number of
 wounds, was recovered from the river 1,129- yards below the bridge.
 The police Investigations succeeded in
 discovering a hair on the parapet of
 the bridge, which. from its appear ance, was stated to have been from the mustache of the victim. They also found thread near the hair, and this, it was alleged by the
 Crown, was from the tab of the coat
 which the prisoner was wearing.
 All important link In the chain of circumstantial evidence was black whiskey bottle
 This, 1t was stated, was sold tc Gardiner at Lisnaska during the day preceding the nigy on which he met
 his death, and 1t was not seen again
 until produced and opened by the ae- cused at time subsequent to that at which the murder was stated to have taken place.
 The medical evidence showed that | Gardiner was not dead when he was thrown into the river.
 Only one of the injuries on his body | was proved to be a wound made be- fore death, which might have been in ficted by blow from a full bottle | but could not have been caused by ar empty one.
 | Prof. Barkie, analsist, stated that or the trousers, shirt front and the tie oi | the prisoner he discovered blood
 stains, which, however, he could not l determine to be human.
 For the defence, evidence was pro-
 duced to prove that rowdy scenes had occurred at Ballynadarragh Bridge al time after the appearance of Crig- gan at the house of a friend, where he brought out the whiskey bottle. About this time cries of distress
 were heard by those there, coming from the direction of the bridge. Sc
 far as the thread was concerned il was from coat similar to those worr
 in this part of the country by numer-
 ous people
 In reference to the hair found-foul days after the murder-a number oi
 witnesses declared that the inhabi- tants, instead of going to barber shop, obliged each other by cutting
 one another's hair at the bridge.

REPETITION OF REVOLT
 IN MOSCOW IMPOSSIBLE
(Continued from First Page.)


 Railroad traffic In all directions would be resumed to-day. The people, anxious to relieve the apprehension of their relatives and friends, crowded in front of the telegraph offices to-day, waiting for hours to file dispatches.
 Reports are coming in that a counter revolution in the outlying districts is growing rapidly, and that the peasants are being summoned to protect the throne and the fatherland, A process sion of 2,000 persons bearing portraits of the emperor and the national flags was formed on the Tverskaia this aft ernoon, and marched to the shrine of the Iberian Virgin at the entrance of the Kremlin, where the people knelt and sang God save the emperor. Later they surrounded the carriage of Baron Neden, the prefect of police, and wanted to go to the palace with him, but he persuaded them to dlsperse.

MIDSHIPMEN MISTAKEN
 OR TELLING UNTRUTHS
Continued from First Page.)

- r.
 On oss-examination in regard to McCrary's case Decatur was asked by the judge-advocate if he remembered anything about his actions on the diff ferent days in November, naming them. He remembered that one was Sunday and another Thanksgiving day, but to all the others said:
 T don't know, sir"
 The most interesting testimony next to that of Decatur, was given by Mid sEipman F. B. Marzoni of Florida, who is also under charges for hazing ana will be tried shortly. Marzoni was the first witness, other than the fourth fourth classmen, to state that any fcuth classmen were in the room with Decatur and in that particular his tes- timony corroborated that of Midship- man Church. He said that while he was in Decaturs room, church had come in and had told him to do NO. IS" in the closet and afterward had been told to stop. 4 He could not re member who had given the order, but was positive 1t was not Decatur. Ills evidence was in strong contradiction to other evidence produced by the defence, as he said that a person could easily De in the closet undergoing hazing and not be seen, while all the others said that if a person had been hazed in the closed while they were in the room they would certainly have seen him. Marzoni men tioned Midshipmen Graves and Lowe, of the first class, and Cox, Nagle and Keller, of the second, as being In the room during the hazing of church. The first two named will also be tried for hazing shortly, it is understood,
 The other witnesses introduced were Midshipmen George A. Trevoor and Robert E. Thornton, both fourth class men who testified that on Sunday last Church had said that the more he thought of 1t the more unwilling he was to swear that Decatur was the one who had hazed him. This Is a violation of orders, as all the witnesses are warned not to converse about their testimony.
 It is understood that the Hungarian band reference to which was made by Judge Advocate Harrison, is one of the creations of the hazing system which the court In inquiry has discovered and that quite number of the upper class men may be compelled to face charges based on the bands compulsory con- certs. The un6er classmen, who com pose it, sing and play on the banjo for | the entertainment of any upperclass- men who order it and McCrary is said to be one of the bands s men.
 The defense in Decatur's case closed to-day and there will be several wit nesses in rebuttal brought by the prose cution It is probable that the case will be finished tomorrow and given to the | court.
 Decatur's case is attracting great at | tention, and desperate effort is, liiak- ing to save him. He is a grandson ot the famous naval hero of the same name, and stands No. 6 in studies ir the class which will graduate next month. He has some very powerful friends, who are willing to help hin in every way Admiral Dewey Is q rel. ative, but little help can be expected from this source if Decatur is convict. | ed,

THE LOG OF THE CONSTITUTION.

HE LOG Of THE CON6IIIOIlONs
 Interesting relics from the frigate Constitution; the proposal by Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte to destroy which was defeated by vigorous protest. are in the possession of J. A. Murphy of this city, They are the logbook and ledger kept during the command of Commodore Charles Stewart.
 It was the intercession of the Misses Stewart of this city, descendants of the commodore, that was most instrument tai in creating sentiment for the preservation of the old hulk.
 The logbook embraces the period from December, 1913, to May, 1915, in- cluding some of the most important naval battles of the war of 1872. It is in one handwriting, presumably that of Commodore Stewart himself.
 It tells in concise and most matter offact style the thrilling incidents of that historic time. Among the more interesting stories is the recital of the capture of the Levant.
 The ledger contains the roster of of ficers and men, and is an account of the advances to them of pay, etc. It's earliest entry is August 19, 1903. The officers of the Constitution at that time were: Commodore, Charles Stewart; lieutenants, James R. Caldwell, Mi chael B. Carroll and Joshua I. Max we'll; midshipman, Clement Riddle, and sailing master Alexander c. Harrison. The name of Dr. Samuel R. Marshall also appears.
 The book is an example of old-fash- toned thoroughness. It is hand-ruled in red ink with the precision of a lith- ograph, The entries are in bold, clear script, as legible as if they had been written yesterday.
 In contrast with the luxurious cir cumstances of an officer of a modern man-o'war is the entry against Lieu- tenant Caldwell. He evidently had re- course to the slopchest, from which at the present day the ordinary seaman only is fitted out with clothing and oth- CT necessities. Under the heading of Advance of slops," Lieutenant Cald- well is charged on the dates January 31 and July S1, 1894, with 80 cents and | $1.13.
 Mr. Murphy is a superintendent of Adams Express company with offices in the Arcade building. The interest ing historical relies were presented to him by H. B. Ford, an agent of the company in Bordentown, N. J. Ford purchased building there several years ago for store purposes. It had evidently at one time been an imposing Colonial residence. The books were found in an attic. Both are in an ex- cellent state of preservation.

 The proprietor, who happened to be in the store, waited on the milliner While they were discussing the jewels a man came in to make purchase After fifteen minutes careful inspection of the stock of scarf pins he bought one from the clerk and started out of the store.
 The proprietor noticed that the man was without his overcoat and ahout two minutes after he had gone the jeweler seemed to have something inn portant suddenly revealed to him.
