RUSS|A'S EYES
FIXED ON PERSIA

st. Petersburg, April 22,-The situa-
ton in Persia engrosses the attention
of the Russian foreign officers, the
Turkish crisis assuming a position OF
secondary importance. In spite OF the
prompt compliance by the shah with
Russia's ultimatum that six day
armistice must be declared at Tabriz
for the purpose of providing food for
foreigners and non-combatants in that
city. it is felt that Intervention in
Persia cannot long be postponed
The armistice will be utilized by
Russia in adequate preparation for the
military occupation of northern Persia
for a considerable period.
All steps taken are in full accord
with Great Britain, which has given
Russia a helping hand.

Just think, boys, what Mr.. Aldrich

of Santa Claus. If it were rot for
those politicians and the tariff laws
little girls could have two dolnes

Use thing that dolly wears, even her

Maybe the papas and mammas
might talk this over with the boys
and girls because the treasury stats
tics show that in 1907 the duty on doll
heads aud other sundries in decorated
chinaware and bisque amounted to 81
425,44S, and on toy china tea sets
alone the little girls mammas and
papas paid Uncle sam $577,To7. That
doesn't count the millions more paid
to the American manufacturers of the
toy tea sets, whose prices are fixed
by the tariff laws which Mr.. Payne
and Mr.. Aldrich write.

SHOOTS SPOUSE FIRST AFTER
QUARREL LASTING SEW
ERAL DAYS.

Milwaukee, April 22.-Folowing a
bitter quarrel. StanislaUs Lelantal a
cobbler, at 9O5 Grove street, shot his
wife at las o'clock yesterday after
noon. He then turned the weapon on
himself and died almost instantly.
The woman was wounded, but did
not succumb and she was hurried to
the Emergency ohspital It is be-
lieved she will die.
Quarrel over Money.
For the last two days they had
been quarreling at intervals over a
sum of $500 which he had mad
at the time they were married. They
had saved. this sum intact until re-
Gently. when his illness with con-
sumption necessitated the expenditure
of large part of it. His wife was
dissatisfied with the spending of a
large amount of their nest egg by
her husband. and quarreled with him
on account of it,
He Wanted to Go Home.
Another cause of trouble was the
refusal of Mrs. Lelental to accompany
her husband back to Germany. He
was tired of this country and wished
to return to his native land, but his
wife wished to remain. For the last
few days he had been acting queerly,
neighbors say. He had not been
drinking. however.
The shooting was done with a So
callber revolver. Four shots were
fired, three at Mrs. Lelental and the
last into the brain Of the assailant.
He was 40 years of age and his wife
was 35. -
The couple rented two rooms, one
of them to a boarder. Leleutal &C
cused his wife in their quarIels OF
caring more for the boarder than for
him, and ascribed her refusal to ac-
company him back to Germany to
this. =
Woman Still Alive.
Mrs. Leleutm was still alive at a
late hour yesterday afternoon. and
hopes for her recovery are enter
tanned. She has one wound in her
temple, The bullet is still in her
head and efforts to find it have so far
been futile. Only an X-ray examina-
ton will disclose 1t, 1t is believed.
The woman is still unconscious. <

The cause of the crime Is mystery
to neighbors. Joseph Konkel, who
conducts saloon underneath the
rooms where the couple lived, knew
nothing Of the shooting until told by
persons who had heard the shots.

of the shooting said Mr.. Konkel.

The Uncle Sam Oil company is a
well-known corporation which gained
a great deal of advertising in the early
part Of its career through its announc-
ed competition with the Standard Oil
company in supplying oil and by-prOd-
ucts to the consumer. the former by
an extensive system of pipe lines and
distributing stations. II is now recog-
niZed, says Mr. Fleming. as one Of the
strongest independent companies in
the country.
Previous TO Mr.. F1eming's connection
with the company it got into debt to
the extent Of 1000. and through the
activities of certain persons, the COM
pany was thrown into litigation, and
a receiver was appointed. The stock
holders. however. came to the front and
paid off the indebtedness and the court
expenses, which amounted to almost
as much, after which the litigation was
dismissed. Mr. Fleming then took the
presidency Of the company from the
trustee in bankruptcy. and ever since
that time it has been operated TO a
profit.
The company has 241 miles of pipe
lines, three large refineries. sixty tank
cars, forty distributing stations in the
Missouri valley, sixty tank cars. and
several thousand acres of oil lands and
wells. 1t has recently completed a
plant in Atchison for the manufacture
Of oil by-products, the plant costing
$4,000. The company is out of debt,
says Mr. Fleming; It's popularity is
increasing among the sections inhabit-
ed by its patrons. and the distributing
stations will be rapidly increased in
number. The company merely plans
a larger business, wants more money
for equipment, believes the business
will be profitable. prefers to let the
old stockholders have the benefit of
the investment in stock, and believes
they stand ready to make such invest
ments.
Mr. Fleming, as all Phoenix people
except the very recent arrivals, know,
is really an Arizonian, even though he
has spent most of his time in the east
during recent years. He built the block
in this city that now bears his name.
though he no longer owns it; was one
Of the organizers of the Phoenix Ma
tional bank, and has been identified
with large mining operations in the
territory. Coming to Phoenix. there
fore, is for him like coming back home
again.

A WIDOWS LUCK.
Quit the Thing That Was Slowly Kill
ing Her.

A woman tells how coffee kept her
from insuring her life:
Il suffered for many years. chiefly
from trouble with my heart, with Sc
we're nervous headaches and neuralgia;
but although incapacitated at times for
my homework, / did not realize the
gravity of my condition till l was re-
jected for life insurance. because, the
examining physician said, my heart
was so bad he could not pass me. This
distressed me very much, as / was a
widow and had child dependent upon
me. II was to protect her future that
/ wanted to insure my life.
Fortunately for me, | happened to
read an advertisement containing a
testimonial from a man who had been
affected in the same way that l was
with heart trouble. and who was cured
tum. | grasped at the hope this held
out. and made the change at once.
My health began to improve i'm
mediately. The headaches and neu-
ralgia disappeared, l gained in flesh.
and my appetite came to me at once.
Greatest of all. my heart was strength
ened from the beginning. and soon all
the distressing SYMPTOMS passed away.
Then I again made application for life
insurance. and had no trouble in pass
ing the medical examination.
1T was seven years ago that I be-
gan to use Postum, and l am using it
still. and shall continue to do so. as

within which to complete their contract
to construct the Roosevelt dam of the

still further, extension should be
granted.
