Citizen Counts Nearly Half a Hun
bred Children on One Block
Besides Babies.

A citizen passing along the walk on
Twelfth street between Commercial
and Washington avenue, a>few even
ings ago, noted large humber OF
small children at play upon the wa'Ss
and street. He started an inyestiga'
ton and learned by actual count
that the one square contained Just AZ
children under the age OF IA years
This square l. not all built up either;
there are number of vacant lots
He says he don't think there Is an
other square In Cairo that can show
UP that large number Of children
under IA years OF age and feels safe
in betting that the babies in the block
cannot be outnumbered.

That viii o. the wisp as some people

was visible until about 3 o'clock IL

on. Mr.. Barron's observation proved
it to be when first seen about 20 de-
grees above the horizon, a little south
of the apparent path Of the sun ana
the tail was about 10 degrees IN
length. The fact that the moon was
so bright made it much less discern

Mr.. William F. Stccse, T0l Coburn Sta
Akron, Ohio, writes:
II have been troubled for several
years with cafarrh of the stomach.
Have used different patent medicines
to no effect whatever, and have doc
tored considerable with family doctor.
"Sometimes his treatment would re-
love me for few weeks, but would
eventually have TO 60 back to him, and
that had kept UP for several years.
81 was advised to use Peruna, and
have taken three bottles. Never felt
so good in my life. Am going to con.
tinue using 1T. Wouldn't be with
out 1t in the house. twill gladly rec
0mmend 1t to any one afflicted with
catarrh Of stomach, or stomach trouble
of any kind"
The above is an oft-repeatcd story.
Troubled for years with chronic ca
tarrh. Tried different remedies and
doctors to no avail. Peruna was adj
vised by friends. Instant relief expe-
rienccd. Great gratitude to Paruna
expressed. This, in brief, is a story
that Is repeated to us a great many
times every year.
No one could be in touch with our
vast correspondence for one month
without being impressed with the sim
certify and truthfulness of these kind Of
testimonials.
Peruna promptly produces an appc-
tite, corrects digestion and relieves
stomach difficulties that have resisted
other treatment.

weakened body is the inevitable, unless per chance, Mr. Rohrabacher is able to produce re- suits far beyond the expectations of his most sanguine supporters.
 The Silver Belt recognizes the present secre- tary to be man well qualified for the place, an untiring booster, matchless worker and a per son who would inspire enthusiasm. In fact the Silver Belt is willing to admit that no better man could be found for the position, and regrets very much the circumstances prompting this comment. One hundred and fifty dollars is above the average salary paid in Globe to men holding positions where ability equal to that of the sec retary of the chamber of commerce is exacted. There are a number of men in the city drawing up to $200 per month, but the number is very limited receiving salary greater than $2OO. For the work expected of the secretary $150 per month would seem fair compensation, and there is little doubt that good men can be se- cured for that sum. The time was just little bit nopportune for Mr. Rohrabacher's touch He has been in Globe scarcely long enough to be- come familiar with the people and the needs of the city; business conditions, if he will study the industrial and commercial world carefully, do not warrant any advances at this time and the city of Globe is not able at the present time to take on any additional expense Ill the conduct of its chamber of commerce.
 There have been times in the past history of the city and there will undoubtedly be in the future when the matter of $100 this way or that cuts will cut but little figure. but unfortunate ly, that time is not now.
 The Silver Belt would like to see the secre- taryship of the chamber in hands equally as competent as Mir. Rohrabacher,, but just at this time it cannot figure where the most competent energetic man in the universe can benefit Globe in the office named to the extent of $250 per month A good booster is all right, but in addi- tion to his salary, Globe business men discover ed long ago, there are other bills to pay. For example, in round numbers, Globe paid $1 ,0OO to entertain the Los Angeles visitors. A mon- ster Fourth of July celebration is proposed what will it cost?

Special Washington Correspondence.
RY TAU-

WASHINGTON, D. C., April 2.-''The re- moval of the speaker from the committee on rules will not materially change conditions in the present congress, except as to its moral ef- feet on the reactionares, They will be little more cautious''
 Representative Charles A. Lndberg, of Min nesota, one of the nine insurgents who voted for the resolution unseating Speaker Cannon, and who, because of his entire record in congress is entitled to classification as one of the 'genu- Tn" progressives, replied as above when asked if in his opinion Canonism had been downed, In order that he be not misquoted Mr. Lind berg was asked to put his views on paper which he did, and from which the above lines were copied.
 Representative Lindberg added that he ap- proved, Ill the main, the editorial in LaFol-
 ette's Magazine which declared that the special interests would dominate the new committee on rules as effectively as though Cannon were it's chairman, and that ESQ long as the republican majority in the house serves the system, it will make little difference whether or not Cannon IS member of the committee on rules"
 With each passing day, it becomes more eyi dent to observers on the ground here in Wash lngton that the people will reap no benefit dur Ing the life of the present session because of the enlargement of the committee on rules from five to ten members, and the elimination of the speaker from the committee.
 There is only one way to keep the rules com mttee from being dominated by Cannonism, and that is to transfer the majority to the demo-
