AMERICANS WOUNDED
AND GOODS DAMAGED
IN MEXICAN RIOTS

Mexico City, July 3d. A message re-
ceived from Guadalajara says that all
is fluiet at that place following the
rioting of Sunday night. A severe hail
storm did what soldiers and b~ayonets
failed to do-dispersed the rioters.
The American consul had lodged a
protest with the Mexican authorities
because of the injury sustained by III.
Murphy. Claims will also be filed by
those Americans who suffered property
loss. The authorities have the situa-
ton in hand and further rioting Is not
looked for.
The riots started in the afternoon
when a mob broke up a meeting at
Del Calico theater called in the in
terest Of Porfirio Diaz, the president,
and Roman Corral, vice president, for
reelection. The orators were stoned
in the street cars. carriages and auto
mobiles in which they rode, and these
were partially wrecked. The rioters
shouted: Down with Diaz; we want
Reyes!"
During the night they stormed the
Hotel Garcia, where the Dia orators
had stopped. Every window in the
structure was smashed and the bar,
office and barber shop looted.
The police charged the crowd again
and again, but were repulsed. State
troops were called put and a number
of volleys were fired in the air, with
out effect. Some Of the members Of
the mob erected a barricade on one Of
the side streets and shots were ex-
changed between them and the SOL
diers.
Six mounted gendarmes and two
foot policemen were wounded. A
4-year-old boy. a member of the lower
class, is said to have been killed.
Considerable American property was
destroyed and two Americans were in
.jured. The Americans nave asked
the American consulate for protection.
The names of the Americans injured
are thought to be w. Kerton and II.
Murphy, though the dispatches were so
garbled as to make identity uncertain

CHOLERA CAUSES PANIC
IN RUSSIAN CITY AND
MANY CITIZENS FLEE

st. Petersburg. July 30.-Dispatches
received here today from Polotsk, in
the government OF Vitebsk, the only
city In Russia aside from st. Peters
burg where the cholera has made such
Roadway, says the former city Is in
full panic, owing to the inefficiency OF
the sanitary administration and the
shortage OF physicians.
Forty cases of cholera are reported
daily, and to cop with this situation
there are only five doctors, who are so
overwhelmed with work that they are
Obliged TO refuse their services at
night.
Heartbreaking e are witnessed
at the physicians Offices, where rela-
tives of the stricken fairly fight to Sc
cure attention. Many stores have been
closed and all well TO do persons are
fleeing from the CITY.

AS ONLY A WOMAN CAN.

She gave him smile from her marvel
Gus eyes,
As only woman can,
Like glorious star she illumined his
skies,
As only woman can.
From the moment his path by her pres
ence was crossed,
In dreams of Elysium his being was
lost.
Till, all of a sudden, she gave him a
"frost,'
As only woman can.
She filled him with wrath OF terrible
kind,
As only Il woman can.
With a cynical bate she embittered his
mind,
As only woman can.
" Her name on my lips shall forever be
dumb"
So he vowed, b1t she smiled and she
bade him to come.
And she got him right back under her
thumb,
AS only woman can.

MANS BEST FRIEND.

Ed. STANDARD:
The best friend man has in this
world may turn against him and be-
come his enemy.
lis son or daughter who he has
reared with loving kindness may
prove ungrateful.
Those who are nearest and dearest
to us; those whom we trust with
happiness and our good name, may
become traitors to their faith. The
money that man has he may lose,
rs it often flies away from him when
he needs it most; mans reputation
may be sacrificed in Il moment OF i'll
considered action; the people who
are prone to fall on their knees to dc
US honor when success is with US,
may be the first to throw the stone
of malice when failure settles its
cloud upon our heads.
The one absolutely unseltiSh friend
in this greedy world; the one who
never deserts him; the one that
never proves ungrateful or treach-
erous. is his dog.
A mans dog stands by him in
prosperity and poverty, in health
and sickness. He will sleep on the
cold ground where the wintery winds
blow and the snow drives tiercely. il
only he may be near his master
side. He will kiss the hand that has
no food to Offer; he will lick the
wound that came through encounter
with the world. He guards the
sleep of his pauper master as if he
were prince. When all other
friends desert, he remains. When
riches take wings. and reputation
falls to pieces. he is as constant in his
love rs tho sun in its journey through
the heavens.
If misfortune drives the master
forth an outcast in the world, friend
less and homeless. the faithful dog
asks no higher privilege than that OF
accompanying him, to guard him
against danger. to fight against his
enemies. and when the last scene of
all comes, and death takes the mas
ter in its embrace, and the body is
laid away, no matter if all other
friends go on their way, there by
the graveside will the noble dog be
found, his head between his paws,
his eyes sad but open. in alert
watchfulnesS, faithful and true even
to death. FRANK YoUNG.

Handy Hints from Exchanges.

Ifyour bed has double mattress sew
the end of four strips of denim about
six inches long. two on each side to
serve as handles. This puts the mat
ter of turning the mattress within the
strength Of a woman.
a strip of burlap, ticking, or any
stout goods tackled across the closet
wall-nailing it at each ends con
venient to pin skirts to. A strip Il
yard and Il half long will hold half a
dozen skirts
If you are an adept at making but
tenholes and enjoy it rs much as you
do embroidering. then make them
about half an inch apart around the
neck of your corset covers and run
ribbons through. These make a mos t
substantial and satisfactory beading.
To remove spots from polished wood
make soft paste of salad oil and salt.
Apply with a soft cloth and rub
briskly. White spots of years stand
ing. it is said, can be So removed, and
if the finish is not injured no trace OF
the spot is left-the white stain is out
in any case.
Have your husband bring home
from his Office all the empty library
paste Jars. | mean the round ones
which have a water well for the brush
in the middle. They make splendid
jelly molds. When the Jelly is turned
out, fill the hole with whipped cream.
The jars can be used as molds for
cornstarch or blanc mange--in fact,
for any cold nodded desert.

The Spinning Machine of Spider.
The spinning machine is situated IN
der the hinder part of the spiders
body. 1t takes the form of slight de-
preston. which close inspection
shows to consist of six small bodies re-
sembling tubes Four of these contain
an immense number Of minute open
ings. as many as Il thousand can be
counted in each. and from every one
Of these openings a yiSc0us fluid is
sues, which hardens on exposure to
the atmosphere. The whole 1000
threads are united into one line. which
is sometimes SO fine that 4.0O0.OOO
twisted together would not have a
combined diameter greater than that
of an ordinary hair from the human
head. 1t is impossible to conceive the
excessive slenderness of one of the
1900 threads which compose such a
line The bare statement that each
one has thickness only one sixteen
thousand millionth of that of a human
hair does not in any way convey the
impression of it's wonderful tineness.
The mind can no more grasp the
meaning of such figures than it can
understand the immense distance of
which astronomers talk so glibly.
