younger ones given preference. The
treatment of the teeth includes extrac-
ton, filling, browning, etc. There Is
no actual instruction in dental hygiene,

workings to the children. The tooth

side instructions as to the care Of the
teeth.
Against intercollegiate Athletics.
President Eliot Of Harvard, address
ing the Association Of New York State
Colleges and Universities at Cornell,
came out squarely in favor Of with
drawing Harvard students from all in
tercollegiate athletics, the dfshonorable
practices in which he deprecated, and
he especially urged the adjustment of
professional coaching. He believes
that no game is fit for playing where
one has to wear padding, masks and
other defensive articles to prevent Sc
rious injury.
Wants Roosevelt Apology.
The Rev. W. J. Long Of Connecticut,
student Of animal life, whose writings

ticle by President Roosevelt, has now

Mexican border. A court martial at
Guatemala City found guilty nineteen
persons charged with completely in the
recent attempt on the life Of Cabrera.
and sentences Of death were imposed
upon all. This created intense excite
ment among the people, who are di-
vided as to the policy of the govern
ment, and charges were made formally
that the trial had been irregular. Mer-
chants were fleeing from the country
after the departure Of the Mexican
minister, Gamboa, and all business
was in chaotic condition.
Rebellion In China Grows.
The unrest which was evident in
many parts of China has now broken
into open rebellion in the province of
Kwangtung, where several large towns
have been attacked by the rebels, the
residents being plundered and the pub
lie buildings destroyed. The move
ment differs from the Boxer outbreak
Of 1900 in that it is directed against
the ruling dynasty and not against the
foreigners, Riots were especially Sc
we're in the Swallow district, and 10000
rebels known as triads took the field,
headed by General Sun, former taotai
Of Marking. At Wongkong every Off
cial was killed, while the German mis-
sion at Lienchow was destroyed.

LEGAL-CRIMINAL
Anti Japanese Riots.

AhIl-JaPansSe niotSs
By direction of the government at
Washington United States Attorney
Devlin has made a thorough investiga
ton of the attack upon Japanese res
taurant and bathhouse in San Fran
cisco on May q by mob Of hoodlums.
Apparently the trouble was due to the
lack Of police in a certain section o.
the city, the officers having been large
ly withdrawn to other parts on &C
count Of the street car strike. Thus it
happened that when two men were
thrown out Of a Japanese restaurant
the crowd, being without restraint,
stormed the place and afterward
wrecked a bathhouse across the street
AS the disturbance was confined to
small section of the city, 1t Is not re-
garded as indicating reawakening Of
the anti-Japanese feeling which was
aroused by the public school incident
last fall. Secretary Root has also tele-
graphed Governor Gillette Of Califor-
MIA to perform the duties imposed upon
the state by the terms Of the treaty
with Japan, giving full protection to
the Japanese residents and their prop
erty.
Missouri Bars Oil Trust
The report Of Judge Anthony, who
was appointed by the Missouri SUI
preme court to take testimony in the
suit AGAINST the Standard Oil. Waters
Pierce and Republic Oil companies
doing business in that state, on the
charge Of conspiracy to restrain trade,
afirnS such combination and recon-
mends that the charters of the COM
panies be revoked and that they be
debarred from doing business in the
state. This is the end Of the suit be-
gun by Attorney General Hadley two
years ago. Judge Anthony in review
ing the testimony says there was am
pie evidence found to show that these
companies entered into an agreement
to fix and control prices to be paid by
retail dealers and others for the prod
ucts Of petroleum in the state Of Mis-
souri,. He also says that these compa-
MES sought to control and limit the
trade In this commodity. The report
says that the companies misled the
public into the belief that they were
separate when in fact they were one
corporation.

Lawson Rampant Third Termer.
In an interview at Paris Thomas w.
Lawson said it was absolutely certain
that Roosevelt would be the next presi-
dent, for even assuming that the Re-
publican convention failed to name
him Lawson thinks the Democrats
would not let slip the chance. But If
neither party convention should nom
mate Roosevelt, Lawson says that he
would finance a popular movement
which could not fail to reflect ''the
greatest man that America has pro
duced since Lincoln" He thinks
Roosevelt's following is composed Of
the great, intelligent, money saving
middle class.
A Pessimistie Ex-Judge.
Ex-Judge W. J. Wallace, who recent
ly retired voluntarily from the circuit
bench, speaking at a dinner in his
honor at New York on May 20, took a
gloomy view Of the political future
In none Of our parties does. he see hope

He says that the Republican party un-
der it's present leadership has entered

the prejudfced, the unthinking and the
fanatfcal believers in socialistfc theo-
RES" The greater part Of this minor
fly in prosperity, he added, were not
millionaires, but people Of moderate
means "who find their modest incomes
vanishing"
Vice In the Canal Zone.
The Rev. P. F. Ferguson, editor of
the Defender, upon his return from a
personal inspection Of conditions on
the isthmus Of Panama makes the
charge that there is regular traffic
in white girl slaves and that American
officials are directly interested In this
trade and in the open liquor traffic.
He says he has proof which he will
submit to congress and to the presi-
dent. He says there are not less than
300 saloons in Colon, with population
OF 10000; twice that number in Pan
ANA and one for every mile along the
canal zone. He says he holds the pres
fdent responsible for these conditions.
Socialist Editor Arrested.

Teachers Salary Bill Vetoed.

Governor Hughes Of New York has
vetoed the bill readjusting salaries of
New York city teachers on the princi-
pie Of equal pay for equal work, which
had been repassed over Mayor McClel-
lan's veto. In his message the govern
or says that the measure If good
should apply to all the cities of the
state alike and should be extended log
ically to all departments of the public
service, but he does not think this bill
was considered In the light of these
implications.
Teachers Optional Pensions.
Governor Stuart Of Pennsylvania has
signed the bill authorizing school
boards Of cities to set aside moneys

Dental Clinic In School.
United States Consul E. T. Liefeld
reports that on April % a municipal
school dental clinic was opened in the
German city Of Frieburg, the opera
tons of which he thus describes: "The
dentist at the head of this school clinic
examines all the children in the city,
both in their homes and in the public
schools. A report on such examina-
tons is sent to the parents, who are
asked to send their children to the
school dental clinic for free trea tment
Those children having ten or more
poor teeth are first treated, an excep-
ton being made in the higher classes,
where those with only slight defects
are to be treated, so that they will
leave the public schools with sound
teeth After these worst cases have
been attended to all other children with

COMMERCIAL
Record Price For Bull.

NCSOTN FElSC Dull
The highest price ever paid for a
horned animal at any auction in the
world so far as known was paid for
Stockwell king Of the herd Of Jersey
cattle sold at the Linden Grove farm,
near Allentown, Pa. The price was
81, 800, and it was understood that the
bidder was Thomas F. Ryan and that
the bull was intended for his Virginia
estate. At the same sale five young
cows sired by Stockwell brought prices
between $4,000 and $1,000 each, and a
seven months-ol calf brought $1O,5OO,
while the total for ninety-seven head
was $93,95O, the average being the
highest recorded at any cattle sale in
this country.
Price of Breadstuffs Up.
The threatened shortage in the wheat
crop and the high price Of that COM
modify are now reflected in the boost
in the price of flour, which has risen
from $3.50 to Sc in the last month. If
continued, this would necessitate
smaller loaf of bread or a cent ad
vance in price.

sode. 1t appears that Boeck had be-
come personally acquainted with the
emperor Of China during his stay in
Picking and had obtained from him the
promise of concessions which would
be worth at least S1OO,OOO,OOO. They
included the operation of a steamship
line to Shanghai and other mercantile
connections. The only thing that stood
in the way Of realization was the I'M
friendliness of the dowager empress.
Nevertheless wealthy New Workers
backed the scheme in the belief that
she could not live long and that after
her death things would come their way
Rate Law Is Constitutional.
The United States supreme court
rendered a decision in the case of a
Georgia lumber firm against the South
ern railroad unfmportant in itself, but
which indirectly sustains the power
Of the interstate commerce commission
under the federal rate law to fix rail
road rates. The commission had de-
cfded that an increase of 2 cents
hundred on lumber from Georgia to
the Ohio river was unreasonable and
unjust, whereupon the railroad carried
the matter up to the highest court,
which now sustains the action of the
commission.

Tears Kill Disease Germs.


DR.. G. Lindahl Of Copenhagen tells
in the London Lancet of his discovery
that tears have the power to kill yari-
GUS bacteria which produce disease In
the human body. This bacteriacidal
capacity Of the lachrymal fluid is not
due to its inorganic components, but
largely to the organisms which it con-
tains, known as leucocytes. The fluid
when heated and cooled fails to pre-
vent the growth Of bacteria to the
same degree as when in it's normal
state.
Vegetables Prevent Cancer.
Dr. Robert Bell, prominent physf-
clan of London, England, holds that
cancer is not caused by any micro
organism, but is the result of faulty
diet and consequent improper santa
ton of the body. In recent lecture
he announced that bad eating and
drinking was one of the chief factors
in the production Of cancer One OF
the special causes was the eating of
zoo much red meat, but in general the
person who ate freely of vegetables
and milk was better able to resist the
approach of cancer. In his whole life
he had met only one cancer patient
who was vegetarian. Smoking he
believed to be an excitant Of cancer,
but not a direct cause. 1t was his be-
lief that within ten years the world
could rid itself of this disease.
Bones of Prehistoric Bear.
Director w. J. Holland Of the Carne- :.
gle museum at Pittsburg after thor
ough examination Of prehistoric ami
mails found in a cave near Holidays
burg, Pa, announces that the bones
were those Of an immense bear unlike
any now in existence and which must
have lived 10000 years ago. The
smaller bones found In the cave, and
which were supposed to be the off
spring of the bear, DR.. Holland says
are those Of the mammoth's young 4,
which the great bear must have cap
tured in a raid upon the mammoth
herds. Heretofore it has been as
sumed that no animal was powerful
enough to prey upon the mammoth.
Besides these bones there were in the
cave the bones of numerous gigantic
squirrels and other animals which are
now extinct. Another similar cave has
been found near Greensburg, Pa, and
1t is to be dynamited.

Mayor sehmitz's Trial Begun.
Great difficulty was experienced In
finding an accepta BILE jury to try Mayor
Schmitz of San Francisco on the
charge Of extortion. inasmuch as the
prosecuting attorney charged the supe-
rior court judges with manipu-
lating the jury lists so as to
bring saloon and tobacco men
into the jury box, or others sup
posed to be friendly to the accused
mayor. The police chief was also ac-
cused Of approaching witnesses, and
some Of the accepted jurors COM
planned Of being approached by de-
tectives. The accused mayor now

ing him with accepting a bribe Of $50
