SPRING TIME,

| greet the Spring! Thou vernal Quee,
That bring to US the flo ~ers,
Thou blithsome sprite; all cad in greer
And purged by April's showers,
King frost must yield to thee full sway,
That you may show your graces
Through leaf and flower; and the gray
Soul laughter on our faces.
The lambs leap forth in gleefulness
Upon a Springtime morning;
The robins chirp in cheerfulnees
The following iodrops scorning;
The violets in beauteous grace
Burst from their Winters hiding;
Their birds hold converse, face to face
Their secret love confiding.
The blood flows forth in raptured glee,

BLOW FOR THE INSPECTOR.
chinannan Was Different from Any He
Had Had Dealings With.

When former Minister WI Ting
Fang left this country he was accc.:.s-
panied by an extensive retinue and at
tended to the steamer by a delegatioE
~ incal Chinese merchants.
The customs officials, who then were
also immigration inspectors. carefully
.,ok the names and count of the local
Chinese as they went on board. This
precaution was to prevent some de-
ported or otherwise not welcome celes-
tial from effecting landing by Joining
the merchants as they came ashore
after taking a ceremonious farewell
of their distinguished countryman.
Half an hour or so after WI and his
friends had gone on board one OF WHs
secretaries arrived on the dock and
vas hurrying up the gangplank when
a customs inspector seized him by
the arm and pulled him back on the
wharf.
"Washamalla you, John, ! no takee
name, you no can come back. Who.
you belong?" said the inspector, smil-
ing at some girls with whom he had
been talking.
The Chinese shook loose the inspec-
tors hold on the loose sleeve Of his silk
-">hs and with quiet dignity remarked:
This violence is unnecessary, sir,
and my name is matter Of no inter
est to YOU | am a member of his ex-
cellency's suite. 60 on board this
steamer to leave this country, never
again, hope, to return"
That customs inspector is still on
the force, but never since has he tried
to be funny with Chinese gentleman.

.FANAT|CA MOORS MURDER
JEWS AND ASSAULT WOMEN
Warfare at CasabIanca Gives Arabs
and Moors Chance to Wreak
Vengeance Upon inhabitants.

Tangier-H Horrible details of the
slaughter of Jews, the maltreatment
Of women and the pillage and burning
Of shops at Casablanca are told by
passengers who have arrived here by
steamer from that port. They say
that after the bombardment of the
place began the Moorish soldiers and
the Arabs reyenged themselves upon
the inhabitants, plundering, killing and
burning on all sides. They sacked
the custom house and burned large
part of the city, whose streets are
filled with decomposed bodies.
Among the Jews killed was man
under the protection OF the British
consulate. His sisters were assaulted
and carried off by Moors.
Many feats of heroism both by
French and Spanish soldiers are re-
counted
Arab tribesmen who had gathered
from the surrounding country to the
number Of 5000 or 5000. swept down
upon General Drudes' camp, outside
Cosablanca, Friday afternoon. They
were drixen off with considerable loss.
Later they renewed the attack and
again were repulsed. The French
troops are In splendid condition and
spirits. The warships supported them
during the attack by keeping up a
steady shell fire on the horsemen.
When the French consul from Casa
blanca arrived here on Friday he re
ceived letter from Muley Amin, the
military governor Of Casablanca, Off
cially approving the action of the
French forces and asking the aid OF
France in inflicting punishment upon
agitators.

USED BY THE DOCTORS.
Ninety Per Cent of the Drugs Pre-
scribed Are Patent Medicines.

Despite the opposition Of physicians,
especially of those whose experience
has been neither far reaching nor
profitable, to patent" medicines, nine
ty per cent OF all Drugs that physi-
clans use are put up and compounded
by manufacturing concerns,-are, in
fact, patent" medicines just as truly
as If they were advertised in the
newspapers.
The average doctor knows little or
nothing of pharmacy and is. there
fore, glad to depend on the very medi-
cines, which in public he condemns,
just as he is obliged in many cases
to depend on the diagnosis of the pa
tient himself, even while publicly de-
crying what he calls "self-diagnosis. ;"
How rapid has been the growth Of the
p. y nal use of patent" or pro
priesary" medicines is shown in an
article written for the Journal Of the
American Medical Association for
September 20, 1906, by A. jacob, M.
D., LII. d. He relates that $4,000 pre-
scriptions, compounded in several
drug stores were carefully examined.
From 1850 to 1870 no prescription was
found for patent" or proprietary"
medicines. In 1874 but one prescrip-
ton in 1900 called for ready-to-use
remedies. Between 1875 and 1880 the
number calling for patent" or pro
prietary" medicines equalled two per
cent of the total This increased to
S per cent in the period between 1880
and 1890. In 1896 it was IL per cent,
in 1898 it was Is per cent, and in 1902
1903 was from 20 to rs per cent.
DR.. jacob says that in a large
store he was assured that 70 per cent
of the prescriptions were for patent"
or proprietary" medicines, and this
probably is approximately the correct
proportion at the present time. From
this 1t would seem that II the patent"
and proprietary" medicines are good
enough for physicians to prescribe in
seven cases out of ten they are good
enough for family use in cases of
necessity and where the symptoms
are well known and as easily under
stood by the people as by the doc
tors.

faker," he said, "but admit that many

These mems idea of lie seems too
closely to resemble that of little boy

"The boys teacher said from her
desk one afternoon:
i want every pupil who has never
told lie to hold up his hand
There was a doubtful pause. Two
or three hands were raised. Then my
little friend piped out:
Teacher, is it a lie If nobody finds
1t out?"

Depends on the DOGS.

Asa Goddard, of the American Auto
mobile association, was recounting in
Worcester some Of his touring adyen-
lures.
"One summer morning he said,
"the approach of great flock of sheep
obliged me to pull off the narrow coun-
try-road. halted my car, and watch
ed with interest the passage Of the
sheep, the intelligent dogs and the
shepherd
Il had short talk with the shep-
herd about his odd and difficult trade.
Look here, said, what do you do,
driving sheep like this on narrow
road, when you meet another flock
coming in the opposite direction
Well, said the shepherd, we just
drive straight on, both of We, and the
one that has the best dogs gets the
most sheep"

inventor Of the Boomerang.

The boomerang is rather puzzle.
One might think that the highest laws
of mathematics had been laid under
contribution in the perfecting of 1t,
The convexity on one side, the fat
ness on the other, and the sharp, knife
like edge on the inside of the con
vexity have the air of having been
carefully thought out.
Yet the people who invented this
singular weapon cannot count higher
than five and are destitute Of all the
arts and amenities of life. Theirs Is
perhaps the lowest plane of human
life.
Some people have assumed that the
boomerang was the creation of an old
err and higher civilization, but for this
there is no evidence. 1t must be the
product of one age long empirical use
OF throwing weapons.

TRYING TO EvADE PAYMENT.
Standard Oil Company Opens Up Fight
AGAINST Verdict.

Chicago.-The attorneys for the
Standard Oil company on Friday filed
the company's assignment of errors in
the United States district court. They
then went before Judge Grosscup in
the United States circuit court of ap-
peals, and made application for an
appeal, a writ of error, and super
sedeas.
The Standard Oil attorneys contend
ed that the supeIsedeas should be
granted upon bond no larger than
sufficient to cover the costs. 1t was
claimed by the government, however,
that the bond should be fixed at $780,
$1,000, the amount of the fine imposed
by Judge Lands, in order to secure
the government, pending stay OF ex-
ecution in the Judgment. The assign
ment of error contained 116 citations,
which Judge Lands is said to have
erred in his decision during the trial.
