ASKED TO BE cRUclFlED.

Mexico City, April 19.-The au-
thorities here have been notified OF
the death of Tuburcio Zambrano, q
mxpan Indian. under most pecu-
liar circumstances. Zambrano I'M
personated Christ in the Passion
Play by the Indians during Holy
Week at the town Of Tuxpan, in the
southern part Of this state.

Zambrano's demands. pinning him
to the cross with calls, hastily Sc
cured. When Zambrano was re-
moved from the cross it was dis

Speaking about handwriting which
Is hard to read, an old time conductor
on the Louisville and Nashville rail-
road told story about James Guthrie.
Mr.. Guthrie, besides being secretary
Of the treasury under James Buchanan,
was also president Of the Louisville
and Nashville railroad and a resident
OF Louisville.
In the early days of railroading there
were no printed passes, and Mr.. Guth-
rie would frequently write = pass
for 4 friend on scrap Of paper. The
conductors on the road would honor
these, Of course. but one farmer car
ried piece OF paper purporting to be
q pass for friend on a scrap of pa
per. The conductor honored 1t. but
later grew suspicious and one day took
it up. He carried It to the Office Of
President Guthrie and said:
"A farmer has been riding on this
pass for about q year. Do yon want
him to continue to use it!'
President Guthrie put on his glasses.
looked the paper over carefully and
said:
Why, this Il not pass. 1t is \ Ne

"A Broken Idol"

Illuminated by the halo OF success
achieved through the phenomenal run
OF over three hundred consecutive per-
formances at the Whitney opera house
in Chicago. the laughing song play, "A
Broken Idol" by Hal Stephens, Will
liams and Van Alstyne with Otis Har-
Ian as the chief generator OF laughter
win come to Gennett theater on Tues
day, April 20.
The production comes here in its en-
tirety as produced at Manager Whit
ney's Van Buren, street playhouse. It
is billed as a musical farce and is,
contrary to what the title would seem
to imply. an American play with mu-
steal setting. 1t derives its title from
an idol which three of the leading
characters break in a row In a Chi
nese restaurant at Los Angeles, Cali
fornia, during the Celestial New
Years celebration when they mistake
the household god OF the slant-eyed
heather for human being. They
spend most OF the two acts fleeing
from the punishment they think will
be meted out to them for the misdeed.

Captain Baldwin to Attempt a
Flight From Seattle to
Boston.
WILL MAP AIR CURRENTS
THIS WILL BE THE LONGEST AER.
IAL TRIP ON RECORD, IF Sue
cESsFUL, AND WILL eENEFIT
AERoNAUTIcS.

Seattle, Wash, April 19.-The bal
loon and airship, have suggested, in
keeping with aeronautical progress,
that there is possibility of mapping
the air currents, and an attempt to do
SO is about to be made by Capt. Thorn
as S. Baldwin, famous balloon expert.
Since the very latest types of the
airship and the big modern gas bags
are to be exhibited at the Alaska-Yu.
kon-Pacific Exposition at Seattle, this
summer, and numerous flights and
tests will be made, Capt. Baldwin, to
further demonstrate that to manage
balloon in long flights, is one of the
great scientific problems OF the day,
proposed to make balloon fight from
Seattle to Boston.
This is the longest balloon trip ever
talked about and If attempted will be
the greatest in history. While the date
for the start has not as yet been set,
it is expected that Capt. Baldwin will
leave the exposition grounds during
the coming summer, at time when
atmospheric conditions are right.
Don't Seek Adventure.
Capt. Baldwin will take this hap
hazard voyage through space not be-
cause he Is In search of adventure, but
because there is scientific purpose
back OF it all. H. Helm Clayton, OF
the Blue Hill observatory, one of the
most noted students Of atmospheric
conditions in the world, is behind the
proposed Baldwin ballooning expedi-
tion from Seattle to Boston.
Clayton, by the use of kites and the
modern meteorological instruments,
has fetched just enough knowledge
concerning that mysterious space ov
erhead to the earth below to venture
the opinion that at an elevation OF
about $4,000 feet there is always a
steady wind from the westward. Now
Clayton further believes that should q
balloon be kept constantly at this. or
even higher elevation. the great bag
would enjoy the full power Of this
steady wind, and should. II all theor.
les pertaining to ballooning prove cor
rect. traverse the continent rapidly.
h60AA, 1 IuCSC adulO uNuO0puCIlC COu.
ditions were exactly right at the time.
Capt. Baldwin will land his balloon on
Boston common within four days after
departing from the Seattle Exposition.
VIII Make Map.
Flying through the air at a rate of
speed yet to be attained by the fast ex-
press trains would no doubt be
nerve racking experience, but Capt.
Baldwin believes that the men who
will write the scientific progress made
in the study OF the airship and bal
loon will have several pages to add il
the balloon trip across the continent
should prove success. En- route,
Capt. Baldwin proposes to make me-
neurological observations and to map
the currents of the air. This would
prove guide to future voyagers along
the same lines.

II now Seems very probable the
Earlham Cemetery association will
meet opposition In its attempt to &C
Quire the Smith farm, just west OF the

procee4ingS which have been institute
ed in The circuit court are to be con-
tested BY the owners Of the ground.
The state law permits cemetery to
bring such proceedings, the same as

question only in technical manner
with the intention Of seeing that fair
value is paid. II protest be entered

ers the court Is called upon to deter

Indianapolis, April 19.-When Gov.
ernor Marshall gets back from the east
this week he will find lot of things
on hand to be looked after. In the
first place, he must appoint a mem
Der of the Railroad Commission in
time for the new man to take his place
on May 1. 1t is certain that w. J..
Wood, the present member from Ev-
ansville, will have to go. Wood is the
Democratic member. but just how
staunch a Democrat he is has been
called into question, and he Is slated
for the ak. He was appointed by Gov
ernor Hanly, and it is pointed out that
Hanly did not appoint stiff Democrats
to any position.
A Job for Cullen.
It is expected that Jack" Cullen. Of
Lafayette. the Monon engineer, who
has the support Of the Democratic or
ganization in the Tenth district, will
get the place, and that the announce
ment will be made soon.
Another matter that the Governor
will have. to decide is whether Harry
B. Darling, Of Laporte. is really a men,
Der of the State Board OF Pardons.
Governor Marshall appointed him to
succeed Thomas Daily, of this city,
who was appointed by Governor Han
~ on the last day of his term to sue
coed q man who had resigned. Hanly
issued commission to Daily for four
years. Governor Marshall appointed
Darling on the theory that Daily was
appointed only for the unexpired term
Of his predecessor. Now Daily refus-
es to give up, and Governor Marshall
has got to decide whether Daily or
Darling Is entitled to the place.
Other Appointments.
Then there are the Public Account
ing Inspectors, to appoint. one chief
inspector, who shall be the head OF
the bureau. at $4,000 a year, and two
deputies at 5000 a year. The chief
and one deputy will be Democrats and
the other deputy will be Republican.
Then there will be several field depu-
ties to appoint who will receive SO q
day and their railroad fares. Govern
or Marshall win stop at Columbus, O.,
on his way home from the east and
make a study Of the Ohio public &C
counting system for day or two to
ascertain just how 1t works. The new
Indiana law was patterned largely aft
er the Ohio law. and the Governor ex-
poets to gather up some valuable
pointers

Observation-Disclosures Shows.

The new and wonderful European
arenic features that have been added
to the Hagenbeck- Wallace Shows, APP
pearing here April 30. are many and
varied, but none stand out so promi-
nently in the brilliant galaxy of star
feature acts as the five Bedinis. i'm
ported from Europe by Mr.. Wallace,
now seen for the first time in Ameri-
ca. These clever people are acknowl-
edged the champion riding experts Of
Europe. and appear in what is classed
known to the circus for the past half
century. Their simplest feats are not
within the range Of accomplishment of
the average equestrian, and their more
heroic efforts are the bane of envious
rivals. The Bedinis are noted for
their dexterous individual and con-
junctive performances, which embrace
a series Of riding and athletic stunts
entirely new to the American arena,
concluding with simultaneous bound
ing leaps from the ground to the backs
of horses. The introduction of CON-
edy element by dog-a big Dane
adds zest and novelty to their perform
ance, and the certainty of execution
with which all their feats are accom-
plishe gives a finished touch that Is
SO frequently lacking in ordinary
riders. The Bedini quintette are not
alone, however. In the Hagenbeck-
Wallace equestrian contingent. There
are many other riders Of both sexes
whose names are synonymous with
the best and greatest In equestrian
achievement and the majority of whom
are progeny of illustrious riding fami-
lies, thus combining acquired skill
with hereditary genius. They repre-
sent every school and style of riding
bounding, jockey, somersaulting, hur-
die, menage. and race riders and he
roic horsemanship Of the frontier.
In the list are Mile. Jeanette, Win
ME Sweeney. Dolly Junian. Olga Reed.
Maud Haywood, Mary Turgineff, Flora
Bedini. Louise Stickney, Anita Con-
ner, Sadie Lichtel, Robert Stickney.
Jr., Fred Ledgett, Joe Lichtel and Ev-
erett Hart, all of whom are artists in
their respective lines. and complete
the marvellous equestrian features of
the Hasenbeck-Wallace Shows, which
alone excel in this respect.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasing Work Keeps U'
 Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood They work nigt and day. When healthy they remove about 500 grains of impure matter daily, when un- healthy some part of this impure mat ter is left in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptoms pain in the back, headache, nervous ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hearing, dizziness irregular heart, debility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But if you keep the filters right you will have no trouble with your kidneys.
 w. A. Hawkins, 669 YeSler Way, Seattle, Wash, says: Tt gives me pleasure to confirm the statement ] gave for publication some years ago in favor of Doan's Kidney Pills as the relief l obtained from ther use has proven permanent. suffered from an acute attack of kidney Tou- tle and though l used remedy after remedy, l was unable to find relief had the most severe pains across the small of my back and was also annoyed by irregular passages of the kidney secretions. Doan'S Kidney Fills helped me at once and continue use entirely relieved me. l am a great advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills and have recommended them on many occasions"
