lie SchahW was the
greeting with which,
- on the 9Th of jan
uary last, the courtiers and officials
of Persia announced to one an
other the accession of their new
sovereign to the historic throne of
Iran. And il was indeed an epoch
making event, for, with the new
reign, modern Persia had entered,
upon an entirely new phase of her
political life.
His father, Mozat1ereddin Shah,
had always been an invalid, so
that, when he suddenly inherited
the imperial crown from his as
NsaSsinated father, Nasreddin Shah,
no one expected him to live more
than a couple of years at most. But
he reigned fully decade and thrice
visited the various courts of Eu-
rope. He was more of mild, good
natured, and patenal sovereign,
rather than the strong, energetic,
and determined despot which an
absolutely autocratic empire like
Persia seemed to need. He GER
tainly deserved the title of Mozaf-
fereddin, "the kind hearted"

BLOOD GETS SOUR.
Every Family Should Make Up This

At this time of year, says a we'll

sour the blood. causing not only facial
and bodily eruptions. but the worst
forms OF Rheumatism. Nervous and
Stomach troubles, Backache and pain

1t Is worth anyone's time now to
get from some good prescription phar-

Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparllla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking well In bot
tie and take In teaspoonful doses after
your meals and at bedtime.
Tbis simple homemade mixture will
force the Kidneys to normal, healthy
action. SO they will filter and strain all
uric acid and poisonous waste matter
from the blood, and expel this in the
urine. at the same time restoring the

FATHER WILL NOT PAY.
School Girl Who Assaulted Boy 10
Technically "Servjnu Time"

Technically Serving Time
Because her father refused to pay
the fine and costs imposed upon her
for assault on a small boy whom she
alleges insulted her, Belle Hare, a
young girl now is serving time by
living at the home OF City Marshal
Morris, being technically IN his custo-
dy. and attending school. The case
created sensation in Centerville, and
the people of that place still are diyid-
ed into two hostile camps.
The plaintiff was Mrs. Hickcox. who
charged that the girl had slapped and
otherwise assaulted her little son,
Rufus. 1t was alleged that the boy was
using insulting language to the girl.
The formal charge upon which the girl
was arrested was assault and battery.
Her attorney, when the case was
called, demanded jury trial, and six
of the leading citizens of Centerville
were summoned.
So far as the simple complaint OF as
sault and battery was concerned, the
defendant practically convicted her
self. but the apparent causes leading
up to the punishment of the boy led
the Jurors to hesitate in rendering a.
verdict. After celebrating over the
case for many hours, the jury returned
verdict of guilty, recommending
mercy" Judge Dwyer imposed a fine
of SIS and costs, amounting in all to
$50. or twenty days in jail

STATE LANDS IN DEMAND.
Settlers West of River Lease Tracts
for GRAZING.

The leasing of state lands this
spring show heavy demand for that
class of lands generally over the state.
In some of the counties hay lands have
been taken on three-year term leases
at 81 an acre, while 81 leases are nu-
merous. West Of the river the leasing
has been heavy, the newer settlers de-
string to secure the wider grazing priv
ileges than they can secure on their
homesteads by the leasing of sections
OF state lands. A year ago a large num-
Der Of term leases were made in that
part Of the state, and as the land was
not on the lease list this year 1t was
thought that the leasing might not be
so heavy as for last year. but the do

Furnace.
] The Homestake mine Is on fire, ano
for twenty-four hours desperate fight
has been waged against the steadily
increasing flames. The worst OF the
situation is that the battle has been
| fought practically in the dark, as at nc
time, owing to the gas and the smoke
have men been able to approach SUM
GENTLY near to determine the exact 10.
cation Of the flames.
When the night shift went on flames
were discovered near the 50O-foot lever
and the alarm was given. The mine
is well equipped with fire apparatus
and plenty of water, and Tor time no
serious damage was expected.
All night long men fought the flames
until, overcome by gas and smoke,
they were carried out unconscious. AT
an early hour in the morning the dry
house was turned into an emergency
hospital, as the company hospital was
full to OVERLOOKING. Between 8 and 10
o'clock in the morning nearly 100 men
were cared for by the physicians and
fully 200 in all were overcome.
An effort was made to drive back
the gas by compressed air and water,
but it failed, and little before noon
Engineer Blackstone ordered every
man out of the mine. Since then at
tempts to deal with the flames have
been confined to turning several
streams of water into the open cut,
which connects directly with the 300
foot level From there the water will
soon find it's way to the fire.
1t is thought that the fire originated
rom blasting out some old timber, as
the blaze is located near the 5OO-foot
level, where such work was being
how great an area it has extended is
not known. On the 500-foot level there
is an immense bulkhead. and the dang
er now is that the flames may reach it,
from whence the fire would spread
rapidly to the other levels, as the tim
Der is old and of pine.
So far there have been no fatalities.
Even the company's horses and mules,
kept in a stable on the 500-foot level,
were brought out in safety. Not a man
is in the mines and efforts are being
made to keep the mills running by ore
from the open cuts.
1t is impossible to estimate now the
amount of damage which may be
caused.
