Arguments of Railway Men.

The railroad men opposed the bill for
the reason that they maintain careful
boiler-inspection service, and it is to their
own interests not to use boilers which
are unsafe or which endanger life. The
employees representatives commended that
the federal inspection Of boilers and the
other requirements Of the bill were neces-
sary just as automatic couplers and air.
brakes were found to be necessary a few
years ago.

ment of stock never delivered to the
state printing department.

share, and Slater made a cleanup" Of

clusion that not a single item represent

| to the state.

planned to Brelsford that the testimony
he might give here could not be used
against him In criminal proceedings. and
| he said thar when the same statement
was made last week he did not under
stand it,
Padded 100 Per Cent.
The second bill shown him was Of
March 81 1905. on which he had drawn
s27s for 100 pieces Of cloth. He testified
that the bill was padded 100 per cent.
| that only fifty pieces had been sold,
making thereby. a large illegal profit.

BRIDCED BITTER QUARREL
WITH HIS LIES BLOOD

TACOMA. Wash, April l.
With young man lying on a hos
pital operating table. his rich blood
pouring into the depleted veins of
his wife, almost a girl, the angel
of death stayed his hand and de-
parted. In his place came Love,
and then barred from two young
hearts by bitter quarrel.
Two years of supreme happiness
were all that were allotted to
Harry Woods and the pretty, frail
girl whom he had married. When
they had but just started on the
third year, they quarreled. In bit
ter anger they parted. Woods

unless-they held out one slim

person would risk death in a gift of
blood, she might live.
Some one found Woods address.
A telegram reached him. His wife
was dying and needed him. The
quarrel, the bitterness-he forgot

But the greatest good this home
will do is to show to the lawmak-

strong measures dealing with the
social evil said Miss Hagen. The
state should help us to build a
home in the outskirts of the city,
where the air is pure and where
the children can work in a garden
as a pastime.'
The public health committee of
the Illinois Federated WOmans
Clubs, of which Miss Hagen is a
member. is demanding outdoor
schools for weak children. Miss
Hagen expects the committee to
ask that the facts of birth, life and
sex be taught in the public schools.

So Miss Hagen organized the

With an apparatus specially con-

son solar observatory, near Pasa-
dena, Cal, has left San Francisco
on the steamship Korea, to spend
two months in the Hawaiian ISL

emissary of the Carnegie institute.
The apparatus which he has con-
structed has been successfully

islands will prove of great value to
astronomers.
Professor Ellerman is celebrated
as an astronomical photographer.
His work has been little short of
marvellous. The apparatus with
which he will photograph Halley's
comet is a small six inch equatorial
telescope, driven by clockwork to
follow the motion Of the heavens

motion of the telescope exactly. will

New Orleans, Nov. 15.-Abe At

rounds to a draw at the West Side
Athletic club yesterday. Conley did
all the leading, and had a shade the

The largest crowd that has attend
ed a fight here in twenty years wit

thought Conley should have had the
decision. Attell conserved his forces
and not until the concluding rounds
did he extend himself. Conley went
at his man hammer and tongs and
forced the clever featherweight cham
pion to respond in kind only after
vicious onslaughts. While Conley
landed the most blows, few of them
were dangerous. Nine-tenths of the
blows landed by both fighters were

clinches. Conley's style was to cover
