ers, and we are drea ming of the time when
this. the most beautiful city of the world,
will be free from the saloon evil. There are
$50 saloons In Washington" he continued,
land allowing twenty feet to each saloon
they would extend a distance of four miles.
They would cover both SIDES of Pennsyl-
yania avenue from the Capitol to the White
House, and there would still be one hun
dred to exert their baleful influence in an
other part of the city,"
The pictures that were shown were all
actual photographs of PAGES in the city

loon League The closing pictures were of
George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, The

can organization came out yesterday in
support of Gov Hughes and his public utili-
ties bill. There has hitherto been some

powers given to the governor in the meas
ure. But at a special meeting held yester-

Tramp Riders End Came as He
Showed Skill on Horseback

NEW YORK, May 1O.-An old man step
ped up to John D'Alma, proprietor OF
D'Alma's pony circus, which is now ex-
hibiting in the Bronx, on Wednesday night
and asked for something to eat
Let me work to earn it," the old man
begged. II can ride for you II you'll
let me. It's been my trade. My name
Is John Morrisey. Never mind my ad-
dress, the sawdust rings been my home for
years. and it's good enough now"
D'Alma sent Morrisey to the cook tent
and later to a bunk for the night. Yes
terday morning just before the daily
parade. they gave the old man a pony and
asked him to show what he could do. His
eyes glistened, and with unexpected grace
he sprang to the horses back.
To the surprise of the scores Of neigh
borhood small boys who gathered about
the ring, and even of the performers them
feat The shabby old man became trans
figured on the horse. Several times he
laughed aloud as the other performers APP
plauded his riding.
But suddenly Morrisey flung hand into
the air. He struggled an instant as IL
trying to retain his balance on the back
Of the running horse, and then he pitched
headlong into the ring. Twice he tried to
speak and then fell back. The physician
who was summoned to the ring declared
that the man had died almost instantly.

CASTRO RETURNS TO OLD HOME.
President Battling
AGAINST Consumption and Tumor.

Against Consumption ana AuuoA'
CARACAS, May 1O.-Battling against
consumption and suffering from tumor
over the kidneys, President Castro, driven
out of villa Ignacia by real or fancieo
dampness and cold which even many
stoves could not ameliorate. was still able
to sit up in his coach wnen he was once
more moved across the city week ago to
his old home Villa Zoila, In the PARADISE
road He appeared to be rather Frustrated
and did not sit forward and saiute ms
friends as he did when he came from Ma
cuto A group of frienos, including Gen;
Alexandra Ybarra met him on his arrival
at Villa Zoila where slowly and with dill
Guilty he walked to his room.
Now that President Castro is back at
Villa Zoila, where his illness began nine
months ago, he is only stones throw
away from the recently completed mouse
of Vice President Gomez which stands d.
rectly above and one might truly say that
these two men, VINO nave recenty peen
more firmly united, and the passing away
of the one and the coming OF the other
will be an unbroken process whlcn may
save Venezuela from pohticai CONFUSION.
What was thought impossible month
ago has come to pass, and President Castro
will live to see the assembling OF congress,
now only three weeks distant. This COM
ing congress bids fair 10 De OF great IN
terest because of the decisive action which
must be taken on the now urgent American
claims, the ever-interesting question as TO
President Castro'S successor to the presl-
dency. and the fate of many of the monop-
olies established during the last two years
\ Owing to the uselessness of revolution In
Venezuela and to opposition to Gen
Gomez when President Castro dies. and
although hitherto an unknown thing for
the head of the church in Venezuela to
preach political allegiance, the archbishop
of Caracas and Venezuela, Dr. Juan Bau-
tista Castro has addressed a pastoral to
the clergy exhorting them to sustain the
present government and avert civil war. In
explaining why he has never hitherbefore
mentioned this delicate subject the arch
bishop says: I'VE have always been de-
tanned hitherto by the terrible efervescence
of political passions. which would always
! have interpreted our ideas and intentions
as partial to one party.

some other method than that of immersion.
HIS efforts at suicide at Atlantic basin

of the Porto Rico line pier, and, with a last
look around, jumped into the water. Its

But 1t was not the end. Coming up from
the dive, the fat man floated face upward.
Again and again he tried to dive under the
surface, but his body merely rolled over,
and the end of each attempt found him
floating with his face upward.
He was trying for the fifth time to sink,
when Waterman William Walsh jumped in,
tied rope around him. and hauled him
ashore He was taken into boiler room
near by, where he was dried outs While

rHAws SINK DIFFERENCES.
Will Unite All Efforts to Save Harry's
Life

PITTSBURG, May 1O-The relatives of
Harry K Thaw. for the first time thor
oughly convinced that he Is in dire jeopardy,
have decided to sink their personal quar-
rels and make a united effort to save the
Hfe of the Tombs prisoner.
Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, wife of Thaw,
arrived in Pittsburg Wednesday morning,
and is a guest at Lyndhurst, the home Of
Mrs. William Thaw. During her visit to
Pittsburg young Mrs. ThaW will call upon
her mother Mrs. Charles j. Holman of
Brookline and try-to effect reconciliation.
It Is expected that the aid of Mrs. Hol-
man will be actively enlisted in behalf Of
Harry X. Thaw at his second trial
Mrs William Thaw returned to Pittsburg
from New York last Saturday She had
gone to visit the Countess of Yarmouth.
who Yesterday sailed for England
1t was the desire of Harry Thaw that
his wife should come to Pittsburg at this
time and enjoy a few weeks of rest. The
excitement attending the trial greatly over
taxed the young woman's nerves, and she
desires to secude herself for a time.
Mrs Evelyn Thaw has not made her pres
ence known in Pittsburg to her older ac-
quaintances, and none of them appeared to
know of her arrival in this city.
Mrs Holman denied knowledge of her
daughters presence in the city, although
she admitted she had expected her later.
Her recent statement made great impress
sion on the daughter, who has never made
any reply. Mrs. Holman hes said that she
was willing to forgive and forget the past
and willing at any time to receive her
daughter in her home, and this statement
has led to plans for a reconciliation. Up
until a few weeks ago young Mrs. rhaw
had not been in communication with her
mother since her marriage. 1t is learned
from a friend of the family that before the
end of the week Mrs. William Thaw and
Evelyn will call together upon Mrs. Hol-
man.

FOR SOUR STOMACH.

This Is one of the numerous re-
suits of faulty digestion and often
is accompanied by belching, bloat-
ing, headaches and dizziness. To
relieve this condition and restore
the digestive organs to their normal
condition the following formula is
said to work wonders:
Two ounces Essence of Pepsin;
three ounces Syrup of Ginger; one
ounce Catandir Compound; mix these
well and use in doses of from one to
two teaspoonfuls after each meal,
also at bed time for the first few
days
This can be prepared by any pre-
scription druggist or the ingredi-
ents can be secured and easily mixed
at home.
This is what is known IS the Pasteur
formula. and most druggists are
familiar with its wonderful curative
powers on the digestive organs and
bowel tract, as II will In a short
time correct their action and restore
them to normal healthy con-
dition. which means an Improvement
in the health Of the whole system.
