TIZ acts at once and makes tired, aching, swollen feet remarkably fresh and sore proof.
 It's the sure remedy, you know, for everything that gets the matter with your feet. It's for sore feet and for sweaty, bad-smelling feet, and for corns, callouses and bunions, too
 "F'Or years I have been troubled win sore and tender feet: suffered in- tense pains. Have had the assistance of physicians without relief. I bought a box of TIE, which worked a perfect cure, as it has with a great many of my friends. I would not be without it. All it requires is to be known to be universally used.' A. F. Dreutzer Chicago.
 TIZ is not a powder. Powders and other foot remedies clog up the pores. TIz draws out all poisonous exudations which bring on soreness of the feet, and is the only remedy that does. TIZ cleans out every pore and glorifies the feet-your feet.
 You'll never limp again or draw up your face in pain, and you'll forget about your corns, bunions and call louses. You'l feel like a new person.
 TIE is for sale at all druggists, 25 cents per box, or 1t will be sent you direct, if you wish, from Walter Lu- ther Dodge 6 Co., Chicago

FRATERNAL INSURANCE MUST BE PAID TO WIFE
 OF MISSING HUSBAND

New Haven. July 13.-Judge Wolfe mas rendered an important decision which will establish a precedent in the treatment of insurances cases in the common Pleas court, in the case of Catherine l.. Taborine against the Su- preme Conclave. A. O. H. The plain tiff in this case sued for $1 ,O0O on a policy on the life of her husband. who disappeared eight years ago and who has been declared dead by the Pro- bate court. Judge Wolfe's decision overrules a demurrer filed by the de- fendant
 The husband of the plaintiff in this action was insured in the Heptasophs for number of years. After his dis appearance, Mrs. Taborine went right on paying the dues. After the legal time had elapsed she then had him de- clared dead in the Probate court and applied for payment on the policy.
 At the time Taborine went into the order the rules and bylaws directed that the insurance be paid to the heirs or beneficiary when the policyho older was declared dead by a court of com petent Jurisdiction. Prior to his dis appearance, however. this bylaw was changed so that a policy could not be collected in case the holder disappear ed.
 The defendant demurred on the ground that the second bylaw was in force at the time of the disappearance and that consequently the policy should not be paid. Judge Wolfe overruled the demurrer. holding that 1nasmuch as the new bylaw was not in effect at the time Taborine took out his policy. it could not prevent the payment in any way. It is believed that, in view of this decision, the case will not be put to trial.

CIRCUS HAS NEW ! RIDING FEATURES Some Big Novelties Have Been ;. Devised by European
 EQuestrians

At last novelty has been injected /1nto the riding features of big CIT tcus. Oldtime equestrian speclaltles tthat for a quarter of a century nave year. have been wiped off the slate iby the Adam Forepaugh and Sells Brothers Big United Shows. When sthis great circus comes to Bridgeport Ion Wednesday July 27, it will bring with it a specially selected company fof horsemen and horsewomen rom tthe various countries of Europe, re- ltaining only those American riders .whof are opponents of some peculiar Estyle of horsemanship that has dis Etinguished them from the equestrlans fof other nations.
 England, France, Germany. Italy. lSpain, Austria, Belgium, Russia and INorway are represented. The charac- steristtc riding of the various people fof the earth gives diversity to the sriding' features that adds greatly to 1.-the attractiveness of the show. Marie Erider In the world; the famous Rooney fend Lowende families, Richard Wal ftou, Alice Johnson, Nellie Welch, Irony Mariposa, Frank Morris, John S9peeE. Florence Reed, the PaJara family, Edna Weeks, Julia La Rouche the names that have for many sea- sons stood out boldly on the bill- boards of all the capitols of the old l world.
 , Even to veteran show patrons the ! coming of this big circus to Bridgeport l Wednesday, July 2. means a great deal more than the coming of any i other show could possibly mean. It 7 is an all new show from start to fin fish, built upon absolutely novel lines : and retaining nothing to identify. it with it's old self but matchIess fhof management spent over $3,000,000 in : the purchase of it's new equipment. , The menagerie alone cost one third of this sum.
 The size of the presen organization may best be explained by few fig ures Over 1000 people are employ ed, there are 600 horses, 780 wild anil maIs, a train one mile long and ten acres of tents. The show carries it's own doctors, postmaster, lawyers, de- tectives, electricians and various skilled mechanics, and maintains a hotel. library. hospital and all the : various shops found in any city.
 Show day will begin with the most elaborate and longest parade ever pre-
 sented All of it is fresh from the factories of Europe. The most skilled :. of foreign artists built 1t. Their in
 structions were to reproduce nothing
 that had ever been seen in circus pa -geantry before. Naturally the sight presented is a complete change from what the people of America have been used to seeing from their windows and porches on circus day. And no expense having been spared, the spec tacle is much more elaborate.
 A novel holiday is near at hand. It will be like seeing a circus for the first time There will be nothing dis
 played on the streets or under the ], tents ever seen in this city before.

CAN COUNT ON 43.
Administration Is Still Short Four
Votes in the Senate.

Washington, May Administration
senators declared today there would lie
no weakening in their fight with the in
Surgent Republicans. They claimed they
would win and save a large part of the
administration legislative program.
This announcement was made at the
conclusion of a long conference in which
represented. They met in Senator AID
richs room to consider whether the dis
mantling of the railroad bill meant that
the whole administration program had
gone to pot or whether there was a
chance tc save something out of the
wreckage.
When President Taft returns to
Washington he will be told that AZ Re
publicans of the senate will pledge
themselves to carry out his program
and he will be asked to use the club if
necessary to bring four more Republi-
cans lnCo line. The administration lead -.
ers believe, however, they can get some
Democratic support for most of the
Taft bills.
At the conference today the politi-
cal situation was fully considered All
of the senators present agreed if the
party measures failed they would
have nothing except a long, empty
session of congress- on which to go
before the country next fall. The
party leaders say this picture sober
ed some Republicans, who have wav-
cred on many of the party measures.
The present plans call for the strik-
ing out of the sections of the railroad
bill under which provision would have
been made for the financial operations
of railroads and to pass the measure
with the commerce court feature and
other sections against which no Sc
rious objections had been raised.

CHINESE LENIENCY.
Rioters Arc Imprisoned for Life In
stead of Being Executed.

Chang Sha, China. May 1.-THE re-
cent rioting in this province has placed
the Chinese government IN an en-
barrassing position regarding the pro-
posed Hankow-Canton railway loan.
Evidence accumulated that the dis
turbances were deliberately planned
by influential persons as a warning to
the central authorities not to NEEDLE
in the affairs of Human province and
to make plain the determined oppo-
sition of the Hunanites to foreign par
ticipation in the railway construction.
Millions of Chinese are imbued with
the idea that the government is yield
ing weakly to foreign influence which
is seeking political control in China
Pekin realizes the situation and. while
desiring to proceed with the railway
agreement, understands that hasty ac-
ton by the government might be fol-
lowed by the most serious conse-
quences. A protracted delay appears
inevitable.
Meantime the central authorities are
making efforts to placate the Human
ties and have ordered the new COVER
nor to deal Ieniently with the rice riot
ers and also with the revolutionists
who recently attempted the bomb out
rage against the regent. The would
be assassins have not been put to
death, but have been sentenced to life

TO ARREST SOAP WOMAN
Assistant County Attorney Has Mary
Doe Warrant Issued.

Assistant County Attorney Atchison
last night swore to a complaint against
Mary Doe, charging her with COM
plicity in the incubator baby kidnapping
and Judge E. R. Simon of the city
court issued a warrant for her arrest.
She is being sought at Holton and her
was taken ct the request of County
Attorney Schcnck, who learned that
the woman was in Holton, where the
case is being tried. The woman is
known as the "soap woman" and laid
the plans and gave the signal, it is al
legged, for the kidnapping. Beyond the
fact that the woman was seen in Hol-
ton last night little is known of the
case here.
The "soap woman" is the woman
who visited the Bleakley home daily
for several days before the kidnapping
selling and delivering a new kind of
soap. On the day of the kidnapping it
is alleged that she entered the house
to talk with he people inside about
the soap, it vas supposed, but later
developments are alleged to have
shown that she was a party to the
kidnapping. She saw the baby in the
house and gave a shrill whistle which
brought Gentry through the screen
door. The seizing of the baby and as
sault upon Bellknap followed. In this
excitement the woman made her way
out of the house and left the neighbor-
hood. Topeka officers have made
dozens of trips after this woman since
the kidnapping but failed each time to
get her

HALF THE SEATS BOUGHT
Former Senator MasOn's Opinion of
the U. S. Senate.

Chicago, May Al believe so per
cent of the seats in the United States
senate can be said practically to have
been purchased"
This statement was made here to-
day by former United States Senator
William E. Mason, in the course of
an interview in which he urged the
election OF United States senators by
direct vote of the people. A morning
paper quotes Senator Mason as saying
that he had heard at Springfield be-
fore the election of Mr.. Lorimer that
the honor was for sale and that the
senatorial toga would go to the high
est bidder. Mr.. Mason, however, to-
day denied that he had made any such
allegation.
Mr.. Mason was candidate. but
withdrew his name before the last
vote when Mr.. Lorimer was chosen.
At his office today States Attorney
Wayman said he expected 10 state
representatives and senators would
appear before the grand jury.
The first witnesses today were Rep
resentative Charles A. White, who al
leges that he accepted $1,000 to cast his
vote for Lorimer; Senator Albert E.
Isley. of Newton, who made the first
speech in the legislature denouncing
Lorimer as a candidate, and Repre-
sentative Henry A. Sheppard, of Jer-
SEVILLE. Representative Thomas TIP
pet of OIney was present in the states
attorneys office. Tippet was a candi-
date for the minority leadership against
Lee O'Neil Browne. who is alleged by
Representative White to have dis
bursed the so-called 'Lorimer slush
fund" The three legislators, all of
whom are Democrats. said they we're
present in answer to kilograms from the
states attorney. Tippet and Sheppard
voted for Lorimer. but Isley held out
for the Democratic candidate. Shep-
hard is one of those alleged by White
to have been at the Southern hotel, st.
Louis, when the Jack pot" composed
of miscellaneous brides was distributed.
Mr.. Isley said he would testify as to
common gossip at Springfield that
Democratic votes were being sought
with money in behalf of the Lorimer
candidacy.

DELAY IN HElkE TRIAL.
One of the Governments Witnesses Is
Ill.

New York, May 4.-The illness of
one of its chief witnesses may serious
ly hamper the government on it's pros
ecution of Charles r. Heike, secretary
of the American Sugar Refining COM
pany, whose trial on sugar under
weighing conspiracy charges is set
for May 10. The supreme court in
Washington on Monday threw out
Heike's immunity plea and the long
delayed trial was expected to be be-
gun next week.
Today, however there was mani
fest anxiety on the part of the prose-
cutting officials over reports of the
condition of Richard Parr, the GUS
toms official who discovered the
fraudulent device by which the gov
eminent was deprived of duties on
sugar imports and whose testimony
was expected to play an important
part in the trial of Heike and other
men indicted with him in this con-
nection. Parr is threatened with APP
pendicitis and an operation may be
necessary.
The prosecution, at the least. will
be considera bly, hampered, if Parr is
unable to appear. although it is said
that since the trial of the last sugar
underweighing cases new evidence of
an important nature has been discoV-
cred. Parr has played a prominent
part in the trials previously held.
