Department of Charities in New York
recently remarked this trait

slum, l heard two little girls talking

Exodus of sultan,s Harem.

Constantinople. May 4.-Since the
deposition of Abdul Hamid there has
been an exodus daily of the women of
the imperial harem from the Yildiz
Kiosk. Forty-five carriages, each con-
tanning two or three women, left the
city yesterday and Is more were seen
proceeding to STEAMBOAT today. 1t is
evident that the total number Of fan
prisoners in the palace must have beer
prodigious. Palaces have been sci
apart for their accommodation, but in
the present condition of the country
their fate is pathetic.

WORK OF NATURE.
Scenic Beauty of A.-Y.-P. Grounds
Not Work of Man.

The amphitheater Of the Alaska
Yukon-Pacifc exposition has been ac-
complished partly by human efforts,
but for the most part the work has
been done by nature. On the high pre-
cipitous shores of Lake Washington,
looking across a succession. of bays,
and snow topped peaks of the Cascades
are brought clearly into view and this
forms the back ground of the amphi-
theater stage. Three sides rise from
the floor and these have a stately up
ward slope; only in the development of
these natural seating places has il
been necessary for work to be ex-
pended.
About the TERED sides of the amphi-
theater chairs rise one above the other
and in the vast forest theater 10000
people can have comfortable anc
slightly positions. Surrounded at the
back and sides to towering trees Of
Douglas fir and massive cedar, the
place seems to have been created by
giants of old for spectacular events
it is so fashioned and designed thai
open sir acoustics produce results
which could be generally looked fol-
only within the walls of structures
built with this property always il

1t was in this spot that the frs
shovel of earth was removed in tn,

exposition. Without any work of pre-
paration, $4,000 people were easily &C

Insurance Companies Liable for Loss
in San Francisco Fire.
San Francisco, May An an opin-
ion handed down by the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals today, the
effort of certain insurance companies
to bring losses sustained by fires dur
ing the confagration of 1906 under the
earthquake clauses of the policies, be-
cause the shock broke water mains
and thus prevented the extinguishing
of the fires, was rejected and charac-
terized as being as trivial as it would
have been to seek the same action on
appeal because the men and horses of
the fire department had been injured
by the earthquake. The companies in
volved were the Commercial Union
Assurance company, the Alliance In
surance company and the Norwich
Union Fire Insurance company and
the Pacific Union club was the policy
holder in each case.

THE TRUE MAPLE FLAVOR.
Housewives Welcome a Maple Flavo
That Has the Real Maple Taste


Vermonters have a reputation for
the quality of the maple syrup pro-
duced in their state. 1t is but a few
years since the discovery was made of
a method of imparting this delicious
flavor to dishes without the use of
maple syrup. The new fiavoring ex-
r tract was appropriately named Ma
pleine.
Strange as it may seem, Vermonters
themselves cannot tell the difference
between syrup made with Mapleine
and that which comes from their own
Green Mountain state. This is due to
the purity of the ingredients and the
care used in the manufacture.
Mapleine is perfectly healthful, is
purely vegetable and makes a syrup
that is equal to any and superior tC
many brands of maple syrup that are
placed on the market.
Flavoring for cakes, icings, blanc
mango, sauce, ETC., that is deliciou:
and has all the piquancy and delicacy
of maple syrup can be readily made
by the addition of a few drops Of
Mapleine to a little water in which
graduated sugar has been dissolved
Mapleine syrup makes such dishes a!
rice, tapioca, stale bread, etc., simply
irresistible to children.

Dynamite in Postoffice.

Butte, Mont, May 4.-Twice within
the last two weeks package contain
ing dynamite, wrapped, stamped and
addressed to a town in Nova Scotia,
Canada, has been dropped into the

to capture the guilty parties, have
kept the matter a secret. No clew has

OLD TIMEPIECE.
Clock on Exhibition at Losey
Jewelry Store is 101 Years
Old.

An interesting relic, is an
antique clock, on exhibition in
the display window OF the J. R.
Losey Jewelry store. The time
piece is the property of Joseph
Sapp OF this city, and was
brought from Kentucky by his
parents many years ago. The
clock is made from the pattern OF
the Eli Terry clock, the first
timepiece made, which worked
successfully. All of the wheels
and frame of the clock are made
of wood, excepting the escape
ment. The wood is hard as bone,
probably due to ageing, and
when an attempt was made to en-
grave it, was found to be hard
as rock. The face of the clock
has been removed to show the
wooden works.

Mind Fully Recovered.

AS the result of an operation
which removed a portion of the
skull from the brain Eugene
Dilley, who is now recovering
his strength and trying to catch
up with the world again" as he
terms it, at his home in Trafal-
gar, Ind, has been restored to
life. He gropes for the lost days
but is unable to account for
them. A half year is perfectly
blank in the memory of the once
well-to-do Indiana school teach
er.
He is however, certain of one
thing-a new mind. He feels as
he never felt before, animated
and bright, and his mind is as
clear as in the old days when he
taught school. His face shows
expression, which it lacked when
he was first discovered after his
living burial"
"If YOU want to find how fast
the world moves just drop out
of it for a tine," he said as he
sat contentedly in lis little home
with Mrs. Dilley beside him and
the children playing about them.
And those six months-Dilley
shudders yet when he tries to re-
call them. All that he remem-
bers is a constant, dull pain in
the head, which never allowed
him more than few hours sleep
each night.

Although only 1000 names are

option election in St. Joseph
county, the Anti-Saloon League
will not stop circulating its pc

least 1000 signatures, and as a
means of bringing this about a
meeting of all the women oi
South Bend has been called for
next Friday at the Y. M. c. A.
for the purpose of effecting a per
manent organization to be known
as the Woman's Local Option
League OF South Bend. The
women will be called upon to
carry petitions into their own
homes and induce all voters un-
der their roof to sign.
If St. Joseph county goes over
to the drys, three breweries, with
an invested capital of 100000
will practically be forced out ot
business, as nine-tenths OF their
business is local.

The question of the incorpora-

funds to maintain such a home
and already a substantial sum
has been realized. There is a de-

to incorporate and proceed with
the work of raising the money
and it is likely that the question
will be settled definitely at this
session.
There are 2S2 chartered chap
