A SAD MIsTAKE.

An elderly man arrived at a foot
ball ground, on the occasion of a
county cup-tie, carrying two large
wicker baskets. These ere pigeons
are to tell the people at. LONE 'ow
things are goin'," he explained. Every
goal we score I'm goin' to let a blue
bird loose, and if the other side gifts a
goal a white 'un's goin' up" Unfor-
tunately, youth with an eye to fun
took advantage of the fancier's atten-
ton being centered on an exciting
piece of play to liberate the whole of
the birds. Now you've done it, young
feller," said the old man, as he glared
at the culprit; it'll cost ME sixpence
for a TELEGRAPH 'ome to stop 'em from
'aving the band out. All them pigeons
goin' off together was to be a sign
as 'ow our chaps 'ad killed the ref
eree!''

A WONDERFUL DISCOV-
cry.

This is the age of research and experiment,
when all nature. so to speak, is ransacked by
the scientific for tie comfort and happiness of
man. Science has indeed made giant strides
during the past century, and among the-by
means least ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS in medi-
cine that of THERAPI0N
This preparation is unquestionably one of
the genuine and reliable Patent Medi-
cines ever introduced, and has. we understand,
been used in the Continental Hospitals by

who are regarded authorities in such mat
tiers, including the celebrated LaIlemand. and
RoTx. by whom II some time since uni
formly adopted, and that il is worthy the at
tentIon Of those who require such a remedy we
think there is doubt. From the time of
Aristotle dcwnwaTds a potent agent in the re-
moval of these diseases has (like the famed
philosopher stonel been the object of search
of some hopeful, generous minds and far be-
yond the mere power-if such could ever have
been disc0yeTed--of transmitting the baser
metals into gold IS surely the discovery Of a
remedy potent as to Tepenish the failing
energies in the one case. and fn the other SO
effectually. speedily and safely to expei from
the 81 stem the poisons of acquired or inherited
disease IN ali their prOteaa forms as TO leave
ne faint trace behind. Such is the New
French Remedy THERAPION, which NAV GER
talnly rank with. if not take precedence of
which no little pstentation and noise have been
made. and the extensive and ever-inereasine
demand that has been created for this medi-
cine wherever introduced appears TO prove
that II IS destined to east into oblivion all
those questionable remedies that were formerly
the sole reliance of medical men.-Diamond

MIR MARSHALL GONE
Said to Have Worked in Harmony
 With C. NY Mahie

Bridgeport, Dec 15.-Since the ap- pearance of W. o. Marshall in this city and vehement attack upon the prohibition candidate for gov ernor, there have been developments which are believed to connect the movement against the prohibition nominee with attack upon the anti saloon league by c. w. Mabie of. De- trot.n .. r.-- @~,Efforts have for some time past been made to locate Mir Marshall, but his present whereabouts are as mysterious as his entrance to Con necticut and his pyrotechnical cam paign ill an automobile throughout the state.
 In special despatch to The Tele- gram from Detroit t. is stated that gram from Detroit it is stated that in that city, but had given them up and disappeared. From other sources the information comes that these officers were in close proxi- mity to those of MT Mabie, who has conducted such vigorous warfare against the anti-saloon league. In fact, it has been stated that the two were working in harmony, if not in actual relationship

HARRIMAN VICTORY,
Interstate Commerce Commission Is
 Not Baff1ed.

Washington, Dec 1J.-Members of .he interstate commerce commission said today that the decision of the United States supreme court in the ,ase of E. H. Hartman and Otto Kahn would prove an empty victory to MT. Hartman
 It is not felt by the commission that the decision will affect seriously its powers of railroad regulation, inas- much as the questions propounded to Mir. Hartman and to Mir. Kahn did not affect materially the determination of the so called Hartman cases"
 Chairman Knapp of the commission said that the decision could not de- tract in any material way from the powers of the commission in the mak- ing of future Investigations regarding railway transactions. This opinion was concurred in by other members of the commission.
 The opinion justified the refusal of Messrs. Hartman and Kahn to make sion ill the course of an inquiry con- rerning the dealings of MT. Hartman as president of the Union Pacific in the stocks of other railroad companies, many of which are competing lines.
 In dissenting opinion. concurred in by Justices Harlan and McKenna. Jus tice Day declared that the effect of the opinion of the majority of the ,ourt would be to materially narrow the scope of the interstate commerce law

ARE KILLING AGAIN
'ArmeDIsn Villages Being Pil. la0ed and Men Women and
 Children WutiIaled.

St Petersburg, Dec 15.-A dls- patch from Urumiah says that a Turkish detachment arrived at Dil- man to-day to protect the inhabi- tants against the excesses of the Per- sian irregulars commanded by Satar Khan. The latter, who had been au- thoE1Zed by the shah to restore order, has raised force of Kurds and pil- laged and burned number of Ar menian villages, killing and mutilat- ing men, women and children. The Armenians appealed first to the local Turkish authorities and then to Con- stantinople, whence authority for the intervention was received. The Shah's special envoy, Ali LII Mulk, arrived at St Petersburg to-day. os- tensibly to present condolences upon the death of the Grand Duke Alexis, but it is reported that his real ob- ject is to seek support for the Shan against the revolutiOnists. Ali LII Mulk was formerly minister at St Petersburg.

WAS NON-SUITED.
Sudden Termination of Cottlc Suit
 This Afternoon.

The sui of Cottle against the rail- road company came to sudden ter imitation this afternoon. A motion for non-suit was allowed on the grounds that negligence on the part of the defendant was not shown and that the plaintiff did not prove due care was taken by MT Cottle when he was approaching the crossing Three men who were sitting on wal near by shouted to him and put up their hands to warn him back, but he drove ahead to his death.
 The next case is that of Catherine Allen against the Connecticut Co. Mrs Allen claims she was thrown from a car while alighting from if. The defense is that she did not wait till the car stopped to alisht.
 The case of Mrs Rosanna Lyrehan against the republican party was taken off the trial list fer the term. It was to have been heard after the Cottle case, but Attorney Russell, counsel for one of the defendants, Andrew J. Kenaeally, is Ill, and Col onel Burpee, counsel for the officers of the republican town committee, is very busy on the charges of corrupt practices brought by George l.. Fox against Governor-elect I.illey.

BOSTON PROHIBITION FIGHT.
Big Battle On Again In Bay State
 To-Day.

Boston, Dec 15.-The last but one of the municipal elections in Massa- chusetts' 33 cities were held to-day. when Boston ,Newburyport and North Adams chose city officials for 1909 and decided upon the question of legalizing the sale of intoxicating liquors. Cambridge is the only city which has not yet voted.
 The license issue was well to the front in the popular interest over the outcome of to-day's elections in New buryport and North Adams. Both these cities elected mayors in addi- tion to members of the city govern ment. while in Boston there was no voting for mayor
 Newburyport was expected to maintain its majority of votes in fa- vor of no license but the outlook in North Adams was less certain on either side. Last years vote in the latter city was expected to return a large majority in favor of license.

STATE OF WAR
Upiied Sisles May Be Secretly Backing Holland 10 Der Al.
 tack on Venezuela
NO BLOCKADE YET

Washington, Dec 15.-The exist ence of what amounts practically to a state of war between Holland and Venezuela, the absence for the first time in many years in an acute crisis of this kind of American warshipS from the proper sphere of influence, and the profession by the state de- partment officials of their ignorance of the intention of Holland, consti- tues most curious and interesting international situation. The facc that America has a quarrel of her own with Venezuela and has termi- hated diplomatic relations with that accuracy of the statement that this government is not interested in what is going on off the coast of Venezue- la. Indeed there is reason to believe that while the official records may fail to show the existence of any for nal agreement between America and the Netherlands, the government of the latter country is proceeding with the tacit consent of America to bring to an end the chaotic conditions that have prevailed in an information al sense in Venezuela for the past two years. So long as the Dutch ships act strictly within the lines of the Monroe doctrine, as construed in the annual message to congress of President. Roosevelt last year; so long as no attempt is made to seize Venezuelan territory for permanent ocupation, there probably will be no interference on the part of ;he United States government. Logical ly the next step will be the decltra- tion of a blockade and of this due notice must be given by Holland to all maritime nations in order to pre- vent the Judgement of claims for ,ln- warrantable injury inflicted upon neutral commerce.
