CHANGED WORLDS HISTORY
Story of the Beard of a Mos1em Chief Which Figured in Ancient
 Warfare.

The most striking case in history of the importance of trifles is fur nished by the story of Musa, the lead CT of the Moslem host which won from Christendom in three and a half years dominions which it took the soldiers of the cross 20 genera 'tions to win back. He had a red beard. This was trifle.
 Musa, though very great general was very vain man, and he dyed his beard black, This was another trife. One of his captains chaffed him on the subject, and Musa forth. with had him stripped and scourged For this, at the very height of hls conqnering career, Musa was recalled by the caliph and disgraced. This made it impossible for him to com mand the Moslem army at the battle of Tours, on the issue of which, as all historians agree, the destinies of Flu. rope and perhaps of the whole human race depended.
 It is almost certain that if the gen ius of Musa had feplaced the incom. petence of the half dozen tribal lead CTS whose dissensions made victory impossible, the forces of Islam would lave joiued hands from the west tc the east and inclosed Europe in theil grasp.

STARVING TO DEATH.
Dyspepsia Causes l Kind of Slow Starvation thai Can be Promptly Relieved by Dr. Richards
 Dyspepsia Tablets.

There are thousands of people to-day who are in the grip of slow. but none the less sure starvation. They are suf- fering, not from a lack of food. but for the want of nourishment that an over worked, dyspeptic stomach cannot ex- tract from the food put into it.
 With the stomach that is affected by chronic indigestion-in other words, dyspepsia --the matter of diet is q mere incident. The gradually increas- ing paleness and thinness of the dys- peptic sufferer is as surely the result of starvation as starvation is the re suit of insufficient nourishment.
 The practical, sensible remedy for such condition is to give the stomach digestive assistance rather than to dose it with drugs. For this purpose there is nothing superior to Dr Rich ards Dyspepsia Tablets. These tab let's are prepared with view to their digestive and mildly tonic properties, and nothing else. They help the stom- ach digest the food by taking the place and inducing the flow of the gastric juice. They stop fermentation and belching and conduct the process of digestion precisely as healthy storn- ach would.
 When digestion is thus improved you begin to receive nourishment from your food. The supply will be abun- dant when the digestion is perfected with the use of Dr Richards Dyspep- sia Tablets.
 Price 50 cents per bottle. For snle by druggists, and made by Dr Richards Dyspepsia Tablet Association, J3 Worth street, New York.

MUSIC IN SOUTH AMERICA.
Indians Dwell There Who Are Adopts
 on Reed Flutes and Pan- ! dean Pipes.

In the remains of the vast Indian nation shattered by Pizarro, the em- pire of the Incas, every man and boy, almost from the age where he can walk, is an adept on the simple reed flutes and Pandean pipes, says liar per's Magazine. They are musical race; there are songs and airs for each season, for the planting, for the har- vest, for the yalorous deeds of the vanished .caciques, for their gods of old to whom a new significance has been imposed by pious church. and the long drawn chants by means of which, at their yearly gathsrings, they pass down the history of their race. As there is no written language, there is no written music; it is handed down from generation to generation by the ear alone.
 Their national instruments are but three in number. the fute--a reed about IS inches in length, with six holes, and square slit at the end for a mouthpiece, played after the man. ner of clarionet; the Pandean pipes
 "a series of seven reed tubes that, in the large ones, are four feet in length, and in the smaller ones scarcely as many inches; and the drum. The last is the universal instrument of all peo- ples; there are few races so low in the scale of human society as not, to pos sess it. The Pandean pipes are in a double row. and at the time of prep aration for the Indiads. or the inter- tribal wars. the outer series is filled with canassa, the native liquor, and the player receives the benefit of the intoxicating fumes without the delay incidental to drinking from the bottle

LAKEWOOD, N. J., Feb. 19.-John Mccall, until recently president of he New York Life Insurance compa- |y, dled at 5:35 o'clock yesterday after Oon at the Laurel House, where he ad been brought three weeks ago in he hope that the change might benefit Is health, which had suffered break town two months ago.
 The news of his death was not given (ut by the family until some time liter the end. Then MT. McCal's son, ohm c. Mccall, briefly announced:
 ''The end has come. My father has passed away"
 MT. Mccall had been unconscious |ince about 1 o'clock in the morning, Fxcept possibly for one brief moment n the afternoon, when his eyes open. Id and loolNI into the face of his vife, who was bending over him. He |miled, and as he did 50 his eyes closed lgain, and he remained in the coma hntil the end.
 It was announced that MT. McCalIs ieath was due to enlargement of the liver, and the end had been peaceful ind without pain.
 The funeral will be held on Wednes- lay.
 MT. McCall's physical breakdown oc- eurred about the close of the investiga- jon of life insurance affairs in this state by the legislative committee in December last. The report of the com nittee is expected to be submitted to he legislature at Albany early this week. MT. McCall's examination be- lore the committee was severe one. and the ordeal he underwent in re- hearsing in detail the affairs of the company and in divulging transactions about which the general public was ig- 'horant worried him greatly.
 MT. Mccall was i'll in bed at his home |in New York when'he affixed his sigma
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-02-19

ture to his letter of resignation from the presidency of the New York Life.
 About three weeks ago his condition became such that his physicians and family deemed 1t advisable to remove him to Lakewood, where 1t was hoped the rest and quiet would mend the pa. tient's shattered nerves and speed the beneficial effects of the treatment of his physical disorders. During all of this time MT. Mccall worried constant .ly about his business affairs. He was compelled first to mortgage and then to sell his handsome country place ut Long Branch, N. J.. In order, 1t was stated, to repay to the New York Life Insurance company $235, ,00O on the An drew Hamilton account, MT. Hamilton, the legislative agent of the compdny having made no nccopnting for this sum. NIT. Mccall had promised when the Hamilton disclosures first were made to repay the amount named if by certain date a satisfactory statement was not forthcoming from Hamilton, whofi is now sojourning in Paris. The directors of the New York Life at the expiration of the time set called upon Mr.. Mccall for the payment of the money. He acceded to the de mands, paying $85,000 in cash and giving his notes for $150, 0,O00, the latter being secured by mortgage on his country place, which later he sold, sub ject to the mortgage. Mir. Mccall re. alized ih all something over $3O0, ,O0O for the property, which was said to have cost him just double that amount.
 John A. Mccall was born in Albany, N. Y., March 2, 1849. Hesentered the insurance business early in life and in 1885 was appointed state insurance commissioner by Grover Cleveland, who was then governor. He relinquish- ed that position to become comptroller of the Equitable Life Assurance soci- ety, which post he held until he be- came president of the New York Life Insurance company in 1892.

EGYPTIAN ROMANCE.
FATAL DOOR THROUGH WHOSE
 PORTALS NONE RETURNED.
Scene Laid in Karnak, Upper Egypt Egyptian Digging for Buried Treasure Comes Upon Door
 way in Rock-Five Enter,

Karnak, in Upper Egypt, is the scene of this grim and extraordinary romance.
 Picture long, low, fiat-roofed dwelling, and the owner thereof dig ging, as if for dear life, in the plot of ground belonging to it.
 Thus has he toiled for many weary days, scarcely giving himself time to eat or sleep, and this morning, at last, his labor is likely to be crowned with success.
 He has strong conviction that treasure is buried on his property; gold, perhaps jewels, or even red and black earthen jar containing the ashes of some great and long-forgot- ten Egyptian, for which the stupid Englishman will offer untold sums. ] He came yesterday, upon a doorway in the rock; to-day, it is cleared of rubbish. It stands free. He has but to pass it's rotting portal, and his dis. covery will be made.
 He steps back to admire for a brief space his handiWork, to rest awhile from his exertions, and to revel in the joy of anticipation. Then he passes through the doorway.
 Evening draws nigh, but the bus. band does not return. His non-appear- ance, so far, has caused no apprehen sion. Of late he has been too busy l to come in for food. s His wife, therefore, gets ready the evening meal, more substantial one than usual.
 The toiler will be hungry, for he : can have eaten but few figs since breaking his fast at an early hour Then she goes to the door to listen fol the sound of his pickax. <. All is still.
 She steps forth to fetch him, but she comes not again.
 Meanwhile the son and daughter oi ! this couple are awaiting with patience the coming of their parents. They have returned, one from his trade, and the other from her marketing, to find the house deserted, and the food un touched.
 The boy, having stabbed his mules rejoins his sister.
 Where are my father and mother?' he inquiries. = How should I know more than

Four Killed In Mine Explosion.

WILKESBARRE, Pa. Feb. 19.-A terrific explosion occurred in the But tonwood mine. about two miles from this city, which caused the death of four men. The explosion occurred ill a small structure known as timber mans shanty located along the gang way short distance from the foot of the shaft. In this shanty was stored a lot of giant powder, and this explod- ed. A number of company hands were at work in the mine, and it is thought they went to the shanty to get warm and eat their lunch. The supposition is that the heat from the steam pipes ignited the powder and exploded it.

Dry Dock Dewey Overdue.

WASHINGTON, Feb. '19.-The naval authorities are disposed to extend for few days longer the period when the department may still expect to hear from the dry dock Dewey, now on its way to Gibraltar, and no special ap- prehension will be felt for two or three days. This is largely for the reason that if anything serious had happened to the foating dock and its accompany ing colliers the navy department would have learned of it from the tender tug with the expedition.
