CHICAGO, Nov l6.-EdHa Clark, a
beautiful seventeen-year-old girl whose
mysterious disappearance from san
F---ac-sc0 e. October = was followed
by tie disclosure that she had figured
in romantic Incidents with the Rev.
PaysOn Young, rector Of the Episcopal

CHARGE FOUL PLAY

Grave Complications
ArOuSeS Suspicious.

LONDON, Nov 16.-The belief OF
many members of the British foreign
office that Tseu Hsi, China's Dowager
Empress, died as the result of foul play,
IS strengthened by the fact that her
death came at the psychological mo-
ment TO prevent serious disorders aris-
ing over the suCcessOrship.
The death OF the DOwageT. which il
is announced occurred at o'clock yes
terday afternoon. removes the graVest
danger, the foreign office declared to-
day, as she was the only persQ1 likely
10 resist the new regime in an effort to
retain her hold on the throne
II Is this ''tlneliness" that makes her
death suspicious. The charge that both
the. Emperor and Dowager were victims
Of slow poison will never be really III
vestigated. A probe has been ordered,
but the true facts, whatever they are,
Will undoubtedly be suppressed.

Mistaken for Those of
Human Being.

WILMINGTON. Del. Nov. l6.-Fire Of
an unknown origin destroyed the home
of Richard J.. Walker. at HH Crest. a
suburb of this city, this morning ans a
parrot ia the burning dwelling gave
neighbOrs a bad scare. for they thought
members Of the family were perishing IN
the flames.
The family left at $50 o'clock 10 spend
the day in Philadelphia, but their neigh
bors did not know Of this. so when
shrill cries for help came from the
blazing building they thought some one
was being burned TO death.
Risking his life. a man dashed into
the building. Instead Of returning with
a man, woman, OF child as the crowd
or excited persons expected, he carried
a parrot in cage POllys feathers
were badly singed and the bird was
pretty well overcome, but when il re-
covered IL began 10 ''cuss."
The loss on the house will amount 10

II IS the most abused, neglect ed. and
scorned member OF man also. Most men
abuse their stomach with under-cOOked
food. high living, alcohol. tobacco, pas
tries and scores of other unhealthy prac-
tees.
When the stomach at last sickens OF
all this sbuse and cannot do its fun
cuty, most men are not warned but
keep up their assaults on the stomach
strike back and cry for help. Man by
his own abuse has taken away from
the stomach the tools to work with
These tools are the gastric juices
which go to make up the digestive
agents From Z TO So lbs. Of gastric
juice are turned into the stomach every
day.
When poor. poisonous food consumes
this juice, dilutes it, rObs it of its
strength and throws it, d feTmented
mass from the system, Of course there
IS just that much of the gastric fluid
which cannot be readily supplied by the
blood
When food comes into a stomach filed

ach is using poor tools and of course,
cannot succeed in its work.
