Frequent Changes of Name.

The political rechrlstehing of streets in Paris is outdone by the case of the Island of Reunion. which changed its name four times In just over half a century. In 17s3 1t was Bourbon. as 1t had been for a century and half, but the convention then changed 1t to Reunion Under the empire ii be came He Bonaparte, at the restorn- tion :, reverted to Bourbon, and final ly, in 1S4S. 1t became Reunion once more. So the septuagenarian island CTS of this last year could recall an unparalleled series of compulsory changes. They must have thought themselves lucky a few years later when the second empire refrained from Bonapartizing this island again.

OKLAHOMA NEGROES NO VOTE
the "Grandfather" Cases-May Bring Suit for Damages.

Guthrie, Ok, Nov. 3.-There will be no interference by federal courts to prevent the disfranchisement of negro voters in Oklahoma under the grand father" act at the general election in November. The United States circuit court for the Western district denied the application Of David Sims, an illiterate negro ex-slave, for an injunc- ton to prevent election officers from denying him opportunity to vote. The opinion was given hy Judge Walter H. Sanborn of St. Paul, Judge John II. Cotteral of Guthrie and Judge Ralph Campbell of Muskogee.
 The Oklahoma state supreme court has passed upon the law and held that 1t was valid and not In conflict with the federal constitution. The two de- cisions will result in the disfranchise ment of negro voters at the election next week.
 The decision of the federal court was not on the ground that the Ok lahoma law is not violatiye of the con. stitution of the United States. It was on the sole ground that the complain ant may have remedy at law in the federal court for the deprivation of his right to vote upon presenting himself at the polls. Should Sims not be al lowed to vote, then he may bring suit for damages. In that way it is possi- ble for the question to be brought sqmarely before a federal court.

WANTS 20 AEROEs
CHIEF SIGNAL OFFICER CALLS AT TENTloN TO SHORTAGE
 OF MACHINES.
WE ARE BEHIND THE WORLD NOW
Wants Two at Each Camp of lnstruc. tlon-sugsests 20 Specially Trained Officers to Act as Pilots-Was First Nation to Recognize Need.

Washington, Nov. 3.-Twenty aero planes at least are needed for the United States government service, says Gen. James Allen, chief signal officer of the army, in his annual re port.
 These aeroplanes should be oH regular practice at different points in the country throughout the year, he says. They should be present on camps of instruction for regular troops and organized militia. Twenty aeroplanes would provide but two for each camp of instruction. To operate this number would require at least 20 specially trained officers as pilots. In addition to this each machine must carry at least one observer, which, ex- perience has shown, will require much training and actual practice before the usefulness of the heavier-than-s:f ma chine is attained"
 General Allen deprecates the fact that although the United States was the first nation officially to recognize the aeroplane for military purposes. it has not kept pace with the world in the development of military aero nautics.
 The aero equipment of the United States army consists of one small practice dirigible balloon, one Wright aeroplane and three small captive bal looms, says the general The signal corps has only one lieutenant and nine enlisted men on duty in connection with aeronautics and the chief signal officer says, until the corps is in- creased by congressional legislation it will be impossible to furnish more officers and men for the absolutely necessary training demanded in air manship.

Ine MaImanau GeYaer.

The famous extinct geyser of Wal mangu, New Zealand, near which a volcanic eruption was reported re- gently as having comVenced, was for a few years the most powerful geyset on record. The activity of this geyser In 1903 and 1904 created such anxiety h the orth island of New Zealand that an Auckland paper, attributing It's activity to the great increase in the size of the adjacent Lake Rotoma, hama, proposed that the lake should be drained in order to allow the freer outbst from the hot springs of the lo- cality. No action was taken and the danger was removed by the bursting of the lake dam. The water of Lake Rotomahana was discharged to Lake Rotorua. and Waimangu ceased it's eruptions. It will be interesting to learn from the New Zealand geoIo. gfsts whether the renewal of the vol. canic activity along the Tarawera rift is connected with the cessation of Waimangu.--N

Catarrh of the Stomach
 a Prevalent Disease
 Difficult to Relieve.
\ PROMPT AND EFFICIENT REMEDY.

| If the truth were known, the probs- bilities are that Peruna has relieved as many cases of catarrh of the stomach as any other popular remedy in exis- tence. We have a great many unsoiic- tied testimonials from all parts of the United States, declaring in strong and enthusiastic terms that Peruna has en- tirely relieved them of catarrh of the stomach, that they were wretched and miserable beyond words, but Peruna has restored them to health, vigor and happiness.
 Those are the facts. Now, if you have stomach difficulty, 1t is up to you to act upon them or ignore them, as you please.
 Symptoms of Stomach Catarrh.
 "The affection may result from errors in diet, or the use of alcohol. The ex- cessive use of tobacco, especially when the juice or the leaves are swallowed, is likely to cause it.
 Highly seasoned or coarse, irritating foods, sometimes induce the disease.
 "As chronic gastritis (catarrh of the stomach) is essentially a secondary affection, one of the primary causes is an unhealthy state of the mouth, nose or throat, such as bad teeth or catarrh of the nose (ozena).
 ''The patients are usually poorly nourished, pale, sallow, thin, fatigue easily induced, muscles fiabby. Loss of appetite or capricious appetite.
 "The tongue is usually coated brown ish gray. Cankered mouth is com mon occurrence.
 "Pain is not common. When present It is usually dull, and is aggravated by food, especially when this is of an irri- tating character.
 "vomiting may occur in the morning. Also after meals. Sickness to the stom- ach frequent and persistent.
 Food produces dull headache, and a feeling of general nervous distress. Constipation usually quite marked"
 These symptoms, given by Gould and Pyle, coincide exactly with the frequent descriptions pr. Hartman is receiving from patients all over tho United States
 If you have any of these symptoms get bottle of Peruna. Take dose be- fore each meal. See ii your stomach does not immediately feel better, your appetite improve, your digestion at once resume business.
 People who object to liqnid medicines eau now secure Peruna 'ablets.

Mir. S. W. Jackson, 8l5 Weaver Block, Greenville, Ohio, says; "while I was superintendent of construction of ]. F Bender and Bros.' Co.,, of Hamilton, Ohio, became entirely unfit for busi- ness with catarrh of the stomach.
 "A friend called my attention to Q remedy for this condition. l began to improve at once. was soon able to re- turn to my former profession.
 'It would require many pages to de- scribe the condition was in and the re- lief have obtained.n
 Here is another case. Officer George Y. Stout, 724 North Broadway, Balti- more, Md, says: 'I suffered very much with catarrh of the stomach and ner- vous indigestion. I lost fifty pounds in four months.
 "A friend called my attention to . remedy, which I used, and gradually got well. have gained half my lost weight back again."
 Chronic Stomach Trouble.
 Ar. Robert J. Gillespie, 6s6 South Main St., Los Angeles, Cal, secretary of Lather's International Union, was also suffering from catarrh of the stom- sch long time. He grew thinner and paler, lost all ambition and appetite. Sick at she stomach, indigestion con tinually.
 A friend also called his attention to . remedy, which brought about a de- cided improvement. After continuing the use of the remedy for . month, he considers himself permanently relieved.
 Now, once more. Mir. Christian Hof- man, slatington, Pa, says he suffered for many years with catarrh of the stomach. It produced a miserable cough, day snd night. He tried doctors and many remedies. At last his atten- ton was called to . remedy, the same remedy that relieved the others which have been referred to above. He claims that he was entirely rid of his stomach difflculty.
 Pe-ru-na Brought Back Health.
 What was the remedy that has wrough ht this remarkable relief Solar, the remedy has not been mentioned.
 If any one doubts the correctness of these statements it is very easy to yer fly them by writing to the people whose names have been given, enclosing stamp for reply.
 The remedy .s within the reach of every one. It is simply the good, old standard reliable remedy known as Peruna.

A REVOLUTION IS 0N
HONDURAS AGAIN IS MALTREAT ING AMERICAN CITIZENS AND
 OTHER FOREIGNER Rs.
A GUNBOAl GOES TO AMAPALA
General Valladeres Has Deposed the Governor of An Island and Assumes the Powers of Government-Ths Princeton to Restore Order.

Washington, Nov. 4.-The United States gunboat Princeton was ordered to Amapala, Honduras, where Gen. Jose Maria Valladeres Is reported to be maltreating Americans and other foreigners.
 Another revolution is on in Hon duras. The Princeton is rushing up the coast of Central America for the Pacific seaport of Honduras. where Gen. valladeres has deposed the gov ernor of the port and Is in control.
 Several weeks ago Gen. Valladeres surrendered the office of governor of Amapala which is an island of the Honduran coast. His cruel treatment of foreigners prompted the United States to send the gunboat Princeton to the port. When it arrived the gov ernor surrendered his post and jour neyed to the capital of Honduas to consult with the president, Dayilla. Quiet was seemingly restored and the gunboat Princeton left for Panama City.
 The state department has received an urgent dispatch from United States Minister McCreery stating that Gen. Valladeres had deposed the new governor, Gen. Calixto Carias, sending him to the mainland in an open boat. Gen. Valladeres also issued a mani festo announcing the Honduran gov ernment as weak and unworthy" And declaring that as it was controlled by foreigners he would establish himself as the legal and military authority in Amapala. Upon receipt of the dis patch the state department requested the navy department to order the princoAnr, Ia,

It may be taken for granted that there is no family of any size that goes very long without needing a lax alive.

1T IS A MOST VALUABLE CROP

Cherokee, Ok. Nov. 3.--Over 600 bushels of alfalfa seed, worth about s5,000, were shipped to Chicago from here few days ago, constituting probably the most valuable carload of alfalfa products ever shipped. The same quantity of wheat would be worth only ahont s500.

Kansas City, Nov. 4.-When the im- provements now being made on the city holdoyer are completed, a real spotlight will be one of the aids in the investigation of criminals, or sup posed criminals.
 To stand In the brilliant glare of an electric light and hear voice from the darkness behind a screen read all your past misdeeds--and then to hear the murmur of a score of other voices speculating on whether or not you are the man wanted for murder or burg lary may not be pleasant, but, never theless, that will be one of the ordeals every suspected person arrested in Kansas City will go through.
 The First of It's Kind.
 And the Kansas City police depart ment will be the first in the country to adopt system of showing up suspected criminals to the entire de- tective force without allowing the sus- pect to get a glimpse of any of the officers.
 Formerly 1t had been the custom for the entire detective force to go to the holdover each morning. There the officers formed double line and the prisoners were required to walk between the rows, while the chief of police or inspector read their records.
 By the new plan the detectives will be in darkness behind a screen. A spot light will be arranged so that it will shine of each prisoner as he is led out. None of the officers can be seen from the place the prisoner stands. It will be possible. however, for the suspect to hear his record given and the comment that passes among the detectives.
 VIII Be Trying Ordeal.
 The police believe the mysterious voices from the darkness may become terror to criminals. At any rate professional criminals will not learn to know the faces of the detectives.
