SEES MISSOURI DRY STATE
The Prediction Of Senator Peck Of
AtchisOn County.

St. Louis, Sept. 10. Missouri saloons
are doomed according to Senator Jo-
siah Peck Of Atchison county, who is
in st. Louis. In the recent session OF
the legislature Senator Peck intro
duced resolution providing for the
submission Of the liquor question to
the voters. 1t was defeated. He pre-
diets the entire state will be dry in
three years.
"a majority Of the members Of the
next legislature will be committed to
prohibition, said Senator Peck.
"Outside Of the large cities the prohi-
bition sentiment is growing. The lid
lifters in st. Louis helped the cause
wonderfully this summer by calling
attention to the violations Of the
law.
Four of the five counties in Senator
Peck's district are ''dry."

A STEADY DRAIN
Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole
Body Make You Ill, Languid
and Depressed.

Sick kidneys weaken the body
through the continual drainage Of
life-giving albumen from the blood
into the urine, and the substitution
Of poisonous uric acid that goes broad
cast through the system, sowing the
seeds Of disease. Loss Of albumen
causes weakness, languor, depression.
Uric poisoning causes rheumatic pain,
nervousness, nausea, crick in the back,
gravel and kidney stones. The prop
er treatment is a kidney treatment,
and the best remedy is doan's Kidney
Pills. Great Vinita cures prove it.
j.. H. Fly, farmer, living seven miles
northwest Of Vinita, Indian Territory
says: For several years I had been
troubled off and on with my kidneys
and back. The secretions were ir-
regular in action and there were burn
ing sensations in passing them. Of
ten / had to get up five or six times
during the night breaking my rest
so that awoke in the morning feeling
tired and unrefreshed. I had great
deal Of pain in the small Of my back
which was aggravaten considerable if
l stopped or lifted anything. | heard
about Doan's Kidney Pills and pro-
cured box at theIPeoples' 6rug store.
/ commenced their use taking four
pills day and l noticed an improve
ment from the first. A continuation
of their use relieved me Of their diff
ficulty from the kidneys and cured
me of backache. I heartily recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills to all suf-
ferers.

BARON ALVERsTONE
Recently Elevated to the English
Peerage.

If you should talk about Baron Al
verstone in this country it is quite
likely that few would know the man
that was meant Formerly and bet
Ter known than Baron Alverstone, he
was Sir Richard Webster, Lord Chief
Justice OF England. When this emf
nent iurist was counsel for Mrs. May
brick in 1889, he made hard fight to
get this woman out of an English
laws clutch. Persistent in his be-
lief that she was innocent OF the
charge of poisoning her husband, he
has many thousands of friends in
America. The same thing can be
said for HThe Irish Senator" which
had a run or 23S nights at the Strand
Theatre, London, before being pro-
duced in this country, that it has
made thousands of firm friends IN
America during its tour here. 1t will
be seen in this city before many days
and "Wise is the man who knows
what is best worth knowing and does
what is best worth doing"

There are many sacred trees Of
India which enter largely into the re-
ligious life Of the Hindoos. Chief
among these is the sami tree and the
trembling peepul. Nearly all the
higher hills and rocks in the plains
are crowned each by 4 temple, shrine
or sacred tree. The peepul is known
as the king of trees. 1t is the most
holy. and the three great spirits Of
the Hindoos dwell therein. The wor-
ship Of the tree is the worship of the
triad Brahma, silva and vishnu. Al
most every Indian village has its pee
pul tree, with a raised platform or al
tar around it. The devout remove
their shoes before it and make obei-
sance before proceeding on their way.

Some curious facts appear from an
international table of divorce statistics
that has been published in Paris
From this it appears that the little
cosmapolis known as Switzerland is
pro rata most prolific in divorce, the
numbers being 40 per thousand mar
riages. France follows with Il, and
Germany comes next with II per
thousand. In France divorces have
grown from 1879 in 1884 to 1862 in
1904 1t also appears that nearly twice
as many women are divorced as men
on the ground Of misconduct, not that
men are more virtuous but that they
have more opportunities Of conceal
ment, and women are reader to for
give.

OPERATIONS ON ISTHNUS
Detailed Report for June, Giving the
Number of Cubic Yards of
Eartl Removed.

Washington, July 24.-The detailed re-
port of the operations of the isthmian ca
nal commission on the isthmus for June
last, was received today.
The excavation in the Culebra division
was 624,5S6 cubic yards, against 669 800 Gu
bic yards during May. and is more than
three times the amount taken out in June,
1906. The report says that with Is 90
yards per shovel as the maximum out
put during the dry season, 1900 yards
per shovel cannot be considered a serious
falling off when the excessive rainfall
Q3.34 inches for June, is taken into &C
, count
The excavation at Gatun amounted to
IS 0l3 cubic yards and in the canal prison
81 $50 cubic yards was dredged.
The report of the department of labor
headquarters shows the total working
force on June % at 23327. This is eXclu-
sive of the force employed by the Pan
anna railroad.
The chief sanitary officer reports that
ont of 1900 white American employees there
were only four deaths during the month,
and that out of about 5000 whites other
than Americans there were but fifteen
deaths. Out of about 5000 cOlOred en-
plOyes there were 2 deaths, making a to-
tai of 81 deaths in June against So in
May. Taking all deaths of employees to-
gether, only u deaths In June were due
TO what are considered climatic diseases
malaria and dysentery-and none of these
occurred among the white American en-
ployes.

by Society of Murderers-
Alarming Conditions.

New York, July 24.-The district attor-
ney's office obtained today a number of
letters in connection with the murder of
the rug merchant, H. S. Tavashanjian.
who showed that for several months there
have been communications sent to rich
merchants in this city demanding that
amounts of money be sent to the Hun
chakist society on pain of death. The
letters confirm the reports of a wide
spread conspiracy to get money and which
the district attorney thinks is alarming.
One of the Armenians who had been
greatly frightened by the letters of the
Hunchakists is Armen P. Aleon, rug
importer He received a letter last
March demanding that $4,000 be paid to
the Hunchakists at once if he wished to
escape the fate of his father.
Aleon's father about three years before
had gone on a trip to Persia. On the
journey he was held up. The son does
not know whether the brigands got any
money from the father, for when he re-
turned to America he was a raving ma

CURZON FREES HIS MIND.
Criticism of Great Britain's Govern
ment of India.

London. July 24-Lord Curzon, chan
cellor of oxford university, speaking ar
banquet given in his honor tonight by
the Grocers company, after expressing
the opinion that the trouble in India is
only skin deep, strongly criticised what
he described as Great Britain's ''unscien-
tific method of administering the empire. a"
He said that no country in the world
had such a reserve Of experience and au-
thority in the art of civil government and
made such little use of il. The colonial
office, he said. was made up of permanent
officials, many of whom had never set
eyes on the colonies they administered
and he asked why there should not be an
imperial council of some kind to assist in
their administration. He apOiogiZed for
speaking in behalf of the great unem-
ployed class TO which he belonged, but
expressed his thanks for the opportunity.
saving that although he was unemployed
he was not altogether extinguished.
Among the guests at the banquet were
the American ambassador, Whitelaw Reid,
and the secretary of the American embas-
SV J. Ridge Carter.

CASE GOES TO
SUPREME COURT
Controversy Over Rate Law of
North Carolina to Be Set
tied for All Time.

Asheville, n. c., July PA special from
Raleigh received here this afternoon
states that an important conference was
held there between Governor Glenn and
the counsel for the state Governor Glenn
stated he had nothing to give out. but
admitted that another conference would
be held tomorrow morning at which he
expected Attorney General Sanford to be
present.
The peace propositions submitted by
Mr.. Sanford to Governor Glenn are as
follows:
First. that the Injunction suit should
be speeded and gotten ready for final
Second, that habeas corpus cases de-
cided here should be at once carried to
the United States supreme court by APP
peal
Third, that the Green case at Raleigh.
in which the Southern railway was fined
$4,000, should be carried by the railway
company TO the supreme court of the
state at once, and if that court should
affirm the judgment of the superior court
the railway company should sue out
writ of error from the supreme court of
the United States and carry the case
to the latter court; that these three cases
present every feature of the controversy
which has arisen and is now agitating
the public mind with regard to the recent
rate law of the legislature
Fourth, that all future proceedings I'M
der the rate law in the state court should
be suspended until the supreme court of
the United States can render final judg-
ment, settling the controversy.
The state advocates stated tonight that
the federal court cannot escape a viola
ton of the federal statute which prohib-
its a federal court from granting an in
junction against a state court. They say
that II is too clear now to admit of cues
ton that Judge Pritchard has already
done what amounts to violation of the
federal statute.
