Once a week the entire pot should

Sext morning take the pot out Of

water for three days. then let it have

BY carefully following this plan YOU

A little lime water will answer the
purpose just as well and will not In

cleaned daily with soft damp cloth
and the dust not allowed TO accumu-

Nowadays. when palms are much
sought after. word as to the best
treatment OF them may be needed.
Palms are very easy plants TO grow.
They should have soil OF heavy

age must be good.
Few plants are happier under deep
shade. and In a very humid atmos-
phere during at least eight months
out Of a year.
Palms should be kept entirely free
OF insects. Aphides will seldom trou-
BILE them. but scales and mealie bugs
will. They can be kept down by
washing once a week in a strong ar
soap suds bath.
Do not keep your palms away from
the light all the time. II Is good
plan TO have several plants. Some
can be used in decorating the rooms.
while others are recuperating at the
windows.
Palms and rubber plants demands
are very great In the growing period.
and fertilizers should be generously
used. AS the plants extract nutri-
ment very rapidly from the soil they
should frequently be repotted. The
secret of the successful growth of

The Russian Famine Relief com.

New York. Bishop Henry c. Potter
Is president Of the committee. Sam
uel j. Barrows Is the secretary. All
contributions. large or small, sent to

and receipted for by the Morton Trust
company, which Is acting as treasurer
Of the fund.
All contributions received by the
committee will be applied and expend-

President Roosevelt has endorsed
this movement and has personally
contributed to 1t. So have Governor

Just received by the committee ap-

part Of their letter is quoted below:
AT present the temperature in this
village is in the neighborhood of
twenty degrees F. below zero. Many
OF the peasants are living in holes
dug underground. They are almost
naked and they are without fuel
Their food is a sort of bread made of
ground acorns or other uneatables, to
which have been added a little rye
meal. Typhus, scurvy. and blindness.
resulting from starvation, are on all
sides striking down grown-up people
and children. This Is not a single
village: there are thousands like 1t,
and these thousands of villages have
no hope unless help can come to them
from the outside. Seventy-five cents
will keep an adult alive for a month.
It Is bitter to ask for aims, but It Is
still more bitter to look upon these
agonfes with empty hands"
Five dollars will be sufficient to
save human life if sent at once.

As long as these members perform their

italian Failed to Identify Prisoner
While on Witness Stand at Wilkes
barre, Pa, Because Friend Of Accused
Threatened His Life If He Did So.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, April ga con-
spiracy within conspiracy, was the
charge made by the commonwealth to-
day in the "Blackhand" trial. Salvatore
Scannoca, who was on the stand yes
terday, and testified to having paid
Charles Luchinni, one of the defend
ants, fifty dollars, but who failed to
identify the prisoner when called upon
to do so, was recalled to the witness
stand today. Before he testified Dist
rict Attorney Salisbury stated that the
reason why the witness did not identity
Luchinni yesterday, was because he
had been intimidated. An Italian
named orlandi, friend of defendants,
he said, had gone to the witness home
the night before and informed him that
if he told the name of the man he
paid money to, 1T would cost him his
life. After this explanation, Scannoca
pointed out Luchinni as the man to
whom he had paid the money.
The district attorney caused the ar
rest of Orlando Joseph Norcatzzi tes-
titled he had received threatening let
ters from "Blackhand." Thinking his
life in danger, he moved to Buffalo.

WOULD LESSEN TAX DoDeINe.
Vital Interest in Lawsuit Brought By
Dos Mojnes National Bank.

q
Des Moines National Bank.
Special tc Times Republican.
Des Moines, April 26.-The Des
Moines National bank has begun a law
suit in the outcome Of which every
national bank in the country is vitality
interested. The bank petitions that 1t
be made exempt from paying taxes on
the portion of it's capital stock which Is
invested in government bonds, assert
ing that the privilege is accorded the
state and savings banks and declaring
that there is a federal statute which
provides that the shares of national
bank stock shall not be assessed at a
greater figure than those of other mon
eyed capital.
Twenty five years ago the United
States supreme court decided that
government bonds from the stock on
which they pay taxes, but since that
time there has been a decision to the
effect that state and savings banks may
deduct from their assessable property
the amount they hold in government
bonds. In view of this later decision
the officials of the bank expect to have
their contention sustained, for the only
difference that exists between the way
the national and other banks pay their
taxes is in the fact that the stockhold-
ers in the national banks are assessed
for their Individual holdings and the
state and savings banks pay the taxes
ou. of the funds of the banks.
