STANDARD OIL ON LIST
Law Breakers to Be Prosecuted, so
Decides the President and the
Attorney General

Washington, ID. C.-Although the
department of justice has announced
that II proposes to bring proceedings
against officials of the Standard Oil,
the intimation is given that it is doubt
full il indictments may be found
against such men in the Standard
Oil company as John ID. Rockefeller,
II. II. Rogers and John D. Archbold.
An official of the department of JUS
tice indicated that while the govern
ment would press the prosecutions
vigorously, he did not have an idea
that the officials of the Standard Oil
company would be reached in crimi-
nal proceedings any more than the

ings.

Attorney Genera Moody had con-

conclusion of the interview he de-
clined TO indicate when or where the
proceedings of the government against

UNREsT--cAUsE OF EVILS
President Butler Of Columbia Univer-
sity Decries Moral Decadence.
Sounds Note of Warning.

New York-Serious consideration
of the present-day spirit of unrest in
politics and business marked the adj
dress of President Nicholas Murray
Butler at the one hundred and fifty
second annual commencement of Co
1umbia University. Degrees were
granted to 1,136 candidates and seven
honorary degrees were conferred in
the presence of an audience that filed
the big gymnasium On the Heights.
President Buffers address was
brief. He began by saying that Abb
raham Lincoln furnishes a good ex-
ample for persons today, owing to
the fact that Lincoln remained tran
quiz amid angry seas He then said
that there is much dissatisfaction with
modern social and political formulas.
Continuing, he said:
THAT this unrest has been and is
being used by ambitious men for their
own selfish ends and for gain by jour,
nalistic builders Of emotional bonfires
Is certainly true, but 1t will not do to
dismiss this spirit of unrest with a
sfeer ON that account.
1T has passed far beyond the
bounds of the dreamers and vision
aries, the violent-minded and the nat
urally destructive. Men accustomed
to honest reflection and themselves
possessed Of property always the
sheet-anchor of conservatism, have
come under it's influence Policies that
not long ago were dismissed as too ex-
IRENE for serious discussion are now
soberly examined with reference to
their Immediate pTacticabiiity What
has brought about this change?
An answer is not far to seek. An
Increasing number of men have come
to distrust the capacity Of society as
now organized to protect itself against
the free-booters who exist in it.
IAN increasing number Of men be-
lieve and assert that law and Justice
are powerless before greed and cum
ming, and they are the more ready to
listen to advocacy of any measure or
policy, however novel or revolution

affected by the appalling sight, SO Of

ethical acts precede Illegal ones, and
speedily lead to them. Given an acute
perception of the difference between
right and wrong, clear conception
Of duty, and an appreciation of the
solemn obligations of trust, our So
cial and political system would, per-
haps, be found to work equitably and
well. Without these traits no system
is workable. Moral regeneration, not

ton, is what we chiefly need"

posed the shriveled souls and ruined
regulations of those who have lost in
the never-ending struggle between sell
fishness and service that goes On in
the human breast"
President Butler said that "greed
for gain holds an appalling number
of men In It's grasp" and that great
wealth and opportunities have caused
loosening Of the old ideals Of con-
duct and business. In conclusion, he
said:
1T is our own individual characters
that are at fault, and not the institu-
tions whose upbuilding is the work Of
the ages. Sound and upright individual
human characters will uplift society

Turbine Steamships.

The use of steam turbines has been
common for some time in stationary
plants and in small vessels.
Instead of the pistor-and-valve ar
rangement which is the foundation
orincip,e of the cld-style steam en-
gines the turbine takes the steam
directly from the boiler into a cylin-
der filed with flanged wings, and
the expansive force Of the steam acts
against these fanges on much the
same principle as a turbine water
wheel. There is no alternating or
reciprocal motion, but a constant rev.
olution at even pressure which can
be transmitted directly to the reVolv-
ing screw.
The turbine principle saves fuel,
but its greater. advantages are in it's
simplicity of operation, the reduction
Of the machine parts required, the
direct transmission Of power and the
freedom from vibration.
t., The transmission Of power from
fuel to effective energy is still in It's
infancy. No commercial device has
vet succeeded in utilizing even half
the theoretic power of coal. - Ns3

Persia's Turquoises.

PerSla'S lurQuoISSSs
The famous turquois mines OF MS
hapur in Persia, are farmed by the
Muavin-u-Tujjar OF. Meshed, in part
nershp with the Reisi-Tujjar, for an
annual payment Of 5000 pounds, or
nearly double the sum paid twelve
years ago. He in his turn sublets all
but a few wells.
The mining is utterly primitive and
unscientific, and owing to that and to
the fact that every Persian desires to
possess a turquoise, good stones are
dearer than at London jewelers.
but inferior qualities and matrix rule
lower.
There is a considerable export OF
large, light stones Of a milky hue or
containing white veins to India.
These sell at most for 6 shtllings per
stone, and are, generally speaking,
very much cheaper, being in some
cases valued Is low as Id. Stones
known in England as matr1x,
which are termed arah at Meshed,
are exported dn considerable quaint
ties to that country.
The export OF precious stones, as
given in the statistics, Is evidently
much smaller than the output, and
probably there is a good deal Of smug-
Cling. In spite of this the registered
exports amount to over 1896 pounds,
which sum may, perhaps, be quad
rupled to arrive approximately at the
total output Of the mines.

"ln the year 1896 the side of my right
foot was cut off from the little toe down
to the heel, and the physician who had
charge of me was trying to sew up the
side Of my foot, but with no success. At
last my whole foot and way up above my
calf was nothing but proud flesh. l SUIT
fered untold agonies for four years, and
tried different physicians and all kinds OF
ointments. I could walk only with
crutches. In two weeks afterwards l saw
a change in my limb. Then began using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment often during
the day, and kept it up for seven months,
when my limb was healed up just the
same as if I never had trouble. 1t IS
