he likes young men or middle aged

spend an evening with a lot of boys

the right swing, than chatting with
somebody from the Smithsonian in

toward a more perfect organization.
The program rendered at the School
of Music last night was thoroughly
appreciated by the music lovers who
were present. One of the best num-
bers was Beethoven's concerto. The
Emperor" with j. Momer Grunn as
soloist. 1t proved a popular selection
partly because Mr.. Grunn is a favor
lite and partly for the beauty of the
concrete itself Mr.. Grunn's playing
of the concerto is worthy of note, for
to the lay observer, it looked like very
difficult music. Perhaps it wasn't, but
it looked that way.
The symphony of the evening was
Haydn's "Militaire." After it came the
"Slavonic Dance. No. l." of Dvorak.
This was one of the best numbers and
was played as though the musicians
enjoyed every note of it. It has a

strike a responsive chord RedewilFs

composer as soloist; selections from

march made up the rest of the pro-
gram.
one versed in orchestral work might
suggest a little more vim here or a gen
tier touch there; or, perhaps, that
closer relationship between the con-
ductor and the units of the orchestra,
which is often termed magnetism,
might be found in a degree lacking;
but, on the whole. to the listener who
is intelligent in musical matters and
accustomed to the best there is, the
performance was creditable, and en-
iOyable; to the one who does not know
the difference between allegro and
adagio. it was the same, creditable and
ENJOYABLE.

SOME OF THE CAUSES
One Was the Decline of
Prices in Most Articles of
Export. A Great Slump
Occurred in out Going Iron
and Steel.

Washington, March 9.-The marked
fall in exports in the month of jan
uary and the seven months ending
with January and the encouraging
features Of the general record on the
import side of our trade account are
discussed in a statement just prepared
by the bureau of statistics Of the
department of commerce and labor.
The total value of the exports of
the country in the month of January.
1909. was but S156, $50, 210 against
$2O6,114,71S in January, 1905: a fall
ing off of practically $4,000. 900 for
the single month, while for the seven
months ending with January the total
was S1,031,719, 944 against S1.1S9.O9O.-

enter candidates for the team. When
the try-outs are held, a representative
of the National Rifle association will
be present to certify to the scores
made by the contestants, and the men
making the so highest scores will rep
resent the United States. In the
match the shooting will take place on
the local ranges. Targets have been
sent TO the y. r. A. from England,
properly countersigned. They will be
distributed to the contestants. and,
when returned. will be verified and
sent TO England. The try-out tar
gets must be in the hands of the sec
rotary of the \. R. A. not later than
noon on April 5.
In this match there will be 80 shots
per man. in strings Of five. The con-
ditions are very liberal, admitting OF
any position. any rifle of not over
.230 caliber, and any sights not con-
tanning glass. The Americans, who
shoot principally offhand at this dis
lance, would have preferred that at
least a portion of the shots should
have been fired from the shoulder, but,
of course, the conditions suggested are
agreeable. The Society of Miniature
Rifle clubs has obtained a handsome
trophy for the match. which will be
held for one year by the winning coun-
try. and then competed for again, as
this viii now be an annual event.
Sometime after April Is there will
take place the most extensive and
important test of ammunition ever
held in this country. For this purpose
the Winchester Repeating Arms COM
pany, the Union Metallic Cartridge
company and the United States Cart
ridge company, are engaged in manu-
featuring a million rounds of ammuni-
ton for the United States rifle. A
similar quantity is being manufactured
by the ordnance department of the
United States army, and when the
test is made. a certain quantity will
be taken from each lot and tested to
determine which is the best. The am
munitiOn which is given the palm viii
then be held subject to requisition
from the state authorities and from
the Army. Navy and Marine corps,
and will be used for practice for the
teams which will take part in the great
national matches at Camp Perry. Ohio,
in August next. The ordnance depart
ment viii hold out 100000 rounds of
the choicest ammunition for the
themselves, and no other am
munition will be permitted to be used
in them. This restriction applies only
to the matches under the supervision
of the national board for promotion Of
Rifle practice and will not affect the
rules for ammunition in the National
Rifle association matches or those of
the Ohio state Rifle association. which
will be held about the same time.
The manufacturers of ammunition
win strive their hardest TO carryoff the
prize. not so much for the amount in
volved in the original order as for the
prestige which will go 10 the winning
and the large orders which
will doubtless be received on the
strength of winning in the tests. The

Washington, D. c., December
31.-Carelton B. Hazard, a wealthy
Virginian who lives on a thirty
acre tract near Rock Creek park,
whore his young daughter takes
daily rides, has sent the following
letter to the president:
Theodore Roosevelt-Dear Sir ::
My little daughter, Martha, four
teen years old, came home about
two weeks ago from a horse
back ride crying, and stated that
she had been accosted by you
while riding in Rock Creek park.
She informs me thct she unexpect-
edly came upon your party and
guard, and not wishing to pass
you, she simply rode slowly back
of you until she should come to
the road that would lead her
towards home, whereupon you
turned on her and asked her if
she did not think she had followed
you long enough, and ordered her
to take a side road, which would
have led her away from home. She
refused to do this, and promptly
told you she void take the other
road, which led toward her home,
and did SO. Did you expect my
little daughter to ,dismount upon
meeting you? l can not compre-
hend how gentleman could &C.
cost young girls unprotected on a
public road with fits of anger. AS
for my little girl, she shall take
her rides as usual, and if she should
be SO unfortunate as to meet you
again | feel confident that this
communication from me will be
sufficient to assure her safety here
after.

course, have the sympathy of all

Nom Radical Treatment of
Rupture.

Is rupture durable? The usual
answer is that it cannot be cured
except by a radical surgical oper-
alton. What does osteopathy
say?
OF course much depends on the
type of the particular case and the
age of the patient. There are a
number of different kinds of
hernia. They are known techni-
cally as inguinal, femoral or UNI
bilical hernia. There are still 9TH
er kinds, and there are modifca-
tions of these types as we'll.
About six months ago a little
boy was brought to a we'll known
specialist for an examination
Investigation showed that the little
fellow was suffering with an in
guinal hernia and the father was
told that the only cure was an op-
Grafton to reduce the size of the
inguinal canal.
The father, while satisfied with
the diagnosis, was not convinced
that an operation was necessary
and went to an Osteopath. He
placed the little boy under treat
ment. In about six months they
returned to the specialist and
asked for another examination
After careful examination and re,
peated tests the specialist declared
that the boy was entirely cured
In other words osteopathy hat
restored the natural condition.
about the inguinal canal, and ther'
was no longer any weakness O
enlargement which would permi
the intestines to come down.
The Osteopath had assured tn,
father that the boy was cured bu
he was somewhat skeptical ant
wanted the opinion Of the special
ist. 1t is difficult to see wher
there is any room for mistak
here. The case was a we'll defneC
one and osteopathy cured the con
dition.
After all, isn't it reasonable t,
suppose that manipulative treat

ment will correct condition of
this sort? The trouble is nearly
always due to weakness of the
soft structures about the affected
part and what can be more sens
ible than to strengthen these parts
by manipulation which naturally
increases the circulation and nu-
triton of the defective muscles
and ligament?
Osteopathy does just the sens
ible natural thing, and there is
much reason to expect help in
cases which are not of too long
standing in young people and
children.
The only alternative, so far as
hope of cure is concerned, is a
radical operation-the knife of the
surgeon.
How many of these efforts fail is
only too we'll known by the many
who have tried it and after all are
compelled to wear truss.
The truss, while it may be of
temporary usefulness,is not a cure.
1t is q makeshift. 1t will retain
the intestines if properly fitted, but
it is something which has to be
used for life, and as q rule, the
longer it is used the moro neces-
sary it becomes. For an artifi-
cially supported part gradually
atrophies and becomes weaker
Therefore, in all cases of hernia,
or rupture, the editor would rec
ommend consultation with an Os-
teopath as desirable thing, be-
fore either submitting to the knife
or surrendering to a truss for the
balance Of life.-Osteopathic Health
