The Beileville fire alarm system was

and the result was that the firemen
were kept on the jump by the ringing
of the alarm bell at the Eastwood hose
house. Crossed wires in Stephens street
caused the trouble, and William
Hanna. caretaker of the system, made
repairs Monday night. The swaying of
trees caused the wires to cross again
yesterday and the system was again
out of commission until repairs were
made last night. The indicators in the
hosehouses are all out of working order
because of the accident and they will
have to be sent away for repairs. In

ROCK ISLAND. Ill. Sept. SO.-Will-
am ]. Bryan has mailed from here his
reply to the letter forwarded to him
by the President last Sunday. The
reply in part follows:
"A brief reply to your last letter is
all that is necessary to call attention
to your attempt to shift the issues
raised. In your letter attacking Mr..
Foraker you inserted an attack upon
Governor Haskell and attempted to use
the charges against him to connect
the Democratic party and me as its
candidate with the trusts. I asked you
to name a tribunal before which the
charges could be Investigated or If you
would not do that I offered to leave 1t
to o to say whether in your judg-
ment the charges justified Mr.. Has
kelrs withdrawal from the organiza-
ton. sc ,ss tse Frra57
You did not deign to suggest a
tribunal, but proceeded to pass judg-
ment upon him. He Immediately re-
signed has position that he might be
more free to prosecute those who
brought accusations against him. Thus
his connection with the organization
ends. E8fk.
Says Taft DedEed Haskell.
Il had no authority to submit and
did not submit to you the question OF
his guilt or innocence for final deci-
sion. Even the President cannot deny
to the humblest citizen of the land the
right to protect his reputation and vim
dictate his name in courts established
for the purpose. where witnesses can
be examined and evidence submitted
according to the rules of law.
I'm my first letter to you I resented
the imputation that any charges made
against Governor Haskell could be
justly construed as connecting the
Democratic party or me as its candi-
date with any trust or law-defying
corporation. You replied that the
charges were a matter of general no.
toriety, and 1 asked you why Mr..
Taft did not mention them when he
made speeches against Mr., Haskell, Of
Oklahoma.
You at one endeavored to connect
me with new matters which arose after
the Denver convention, and, conscious
that those charges were insufficient,

Toriuring Animals
To Assist Science
Is a Cruel Method to Follow, But 1t
Has saved Many Human Lives.

Professor Pawlow, of Russia, was en-
gagged for man years in experimental
work, trying to learn the workings
of digestion, especially the digestive
glands.
He, with able assistants. operated
upon dogs, cats, guinea pigs and other
animals.
His methods were seemingly painful.
but he gave to science a work which
won the Nobel prize and made for him
an undying fame.
Science penetrated the secrets of ma
ture. Professor Pawlow saw animals
digest food. He analysed juices from
every part of the digestive canal and
stomach under all conditions of diges-
ton. He spent years of ceaseless study
amid the bowling n dying beasts.
but he o n science today looks
upon him as a great man.
