PEERS STANDING FIRM.
Significance of Large Majority for
Lord Rosebery's Resolution.

LONDON, March 23.-The large ma jor-
ity by which the house of lords yesterday
carried Lord Roseberys third resolution,
which deals with the hereditary principle,
is rather the registration of public opin-
ion than the forerunner OF any effective
reform OF the second chamber. The reso-
luton was adopted by vote of IT'S to II.
The debate revealed strong feeling
against the resolution, and Lord Lans-
oowne had to assure the members tow
ard the close OF the debate that the reso-
iution would in no way sacrifice the
hereditary principle. He added
A peer may vote for the resolution, and
then vote that every member of this
house should have hereditary title.
Lord Rosebery followed and explained
that they were only revealing the man.
ner in which they believed the reforms
should go. No bill would be submitted /;
that was for some government of the
day to do. This evidently implies that
no reform OF the house Of lords will be
undertaken from the conservative side
until a conservative government is in
ONCE.

FUR SEALS
BILL TO TERMINATE LEASE ON
PRIBILOF ISLANDS.
Secretary Of Commerce and Labor
Authorized to Declare Closed
Season-Senate's Action.

The bill terminating the present lease of
the fur seal killing on the Pribilof islands
in the Pacific and authorizing the Secre-
tary of Commerce and Labor to declare a
closed season on the islands was passed
by the Senate today.
In presenting the bill from the commit
tee on conservation of national resources
Senator Dixon of Montana explained the
mandatory existing law requiring the
leasing of the sealing privilege and said
immediat6 action was necessary because
Of the fact that the lease expired next
month.
Diminution of the Herd.
He said that the herd had diminished d
from 4, 800 900 in 1857. when the United
States acquired the islands. to fewer than
100000 at the present time and stated that
it was the opinion of experts that unless
the seal were protected they would be en-
tirely exterminated within two or three
years.
On motion OF Senator Root, the bill was
so amended as to make the disposition OF
seaIskins subject to any treaty governing
the question which may be negotiated in
the future. While favoring it's passage,
Mr.. Root contended that the cessation OF
pelagic Sealing also was necessary to the
preservation of the seal herd.
A treaty is pending to this end and Mr..
Root expressed the opinion that its ac-
ceptance would prove to be necessary for
the adequate protection Of the seals.

DON'T PUT OFF
THE DAY OF CURE
BY A MISTAKEN TREATMENT FOR
STOMACH TROUBLE.
You May Further Weaken the Digestive
Organs When It Is Necessary
4. to Tone Them Up.

Are you making the mistake of so many
sufferers from stomach trouble by using
predigested foods, digestive ferments and
stimulating medicines in your efforts to
get relief from your trouble? If so this
explains why you are still sufferer
In the beginning the various forms of
stomach trouble are almost without ex-
ception caused directly by q general low
ering of the vitality OF the body, either
because of overwork, indiscretions in liv
ing or sickness. In any event i'm
poverished blood and weak nerves result
and the loss of appetite, gas on the
stomach, dizziness and other symptoms
which follow are only some of the warn
ing signs that the blood and nerves are
failing to give the stomach sufficient
strength for its work
To treat such a condition as this with,
stimulating medicines, which only force
the stomach to work beyond its strength,
or with predigested foods and medicines,
which require no work on the part of
the stomach, not merely puts off the day
for cure but further increases the weak
ness of the stomach.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are the most
direct cure for stomach trouble because
they are certain blood builder. Pure
blood makes healthy nerves and strength
ems the entire body. The weak stomach
gets plenty of healthy blood and nervous
energy, and perfect digestion follows.
Mrs. E. S. Reynolds, of Paris, Mo-,
says:
ga few years ago I began to have
trouble with my stomach. 1t followed
severe attack of the grip and lasted for
over two years. My stomach was so
weak that always had to be careful
what ate. Otherwise my stomach would
distress me greatly. l had palpitation of
the heart with shortness OF breath. 1
had dizzy spells and was a great sufferer
from chronic constipation.
81 tried many remedies but received
no benefit and began to doubt if ever
would get relief. l read about the case
of woman at St. Joseph who was cured
by DIR. Williams Pink Pills and started
using them. In a very short time [
noticed an improvement. l took the
pills for some time and was cured"
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt of price, so cents per box; six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams

ceived little benefit, and after a fort

specialist who told me the complaint
was psoriasis. The irritation was not

softened my hands, made them feel fresh

Cuticura Resolvent and Cutioura Oint-
msnt and was especially pleased with
the Ointment which immediately ailayed
the irritation and caused the sores to
heal steadily and surely. In three weeks

TORN BY A DOG.
Aubrey Keller, Three Years
Old, the Victim.
Doctors Think That Animal
Had HydrOphObia.

Despite the fact that he knew his
greyhound was acting strangely Eu-
gene Richardson, a negro living at 14l6
Van Buren, street, took the animal. out
with him Thursday morning.
AS a result of the negro's action Au-
brey Keller, the 3-year-old son of G. l..
Keller, milkman living at 1923 Kansas
avenue, is in danger of rabies.
Thursday noon the little fellow was
playing in front of his home when the
negro and his dog came along. The
negro went into a grocery store, leav-
ing the dog on the sidewalk. Aubrey
looked at the dog and called out

when the animal sprang upon him, bore
him to the pavement and bit him in the
left cheek. The screams of the terrified
boy attracted the attention of his
mother and others, who rushed to his
side Blood was streaming down his
face. A hurried examination of the
wound showed it to be deep one.
Tt dog was captured and bound. 1t
died this morning and physicians de-
clare that rabies caused it's death
In the meantime the little victim is
being given medical attention at his
home. The wound is washed every
hour but despite the efforts of his par
ents and DR.. A B. Jeffrey, attending
physician, the boys face is rapidly
swelling. He will be taken to the office
of DR.. Jeffrey this afternoon and an ex-
animation made. If the case has not
gone too far the boy may be treated
here instead of at a Pasteur institute.
Sister Also Bitten.
Aubrey is the second member of the
Keller family to be bitten by mad
dog. The first was his dve-year-old
sister, Gladys.
About a year ago the child was play
ing with a dog belonging to the fam
lily in front of her home. 1923 Kansas
avenue, when the animal turned upon
her and buried its teeth IN her face.

the dog showed evidence of rabies. The
child was rushed to the Pasteur in
stittue at Chicago for treatment. She
was cured.

This child is the victim of that
negro's carelessness,' declared DR.. JEFF

business is going to cost the city some
money if something is not done at

eff what 1 learned this morning is
true then the negro is responsible for
the accident to the child. 1 was told
that the negro had been warned about
the dog and told to tie him, but he
refused to do so. Something has got
to be done with regard to mad dogs

Family Very Poor.
Keller is a very poor man, with five
people depending on him for a living.
He has four children, the eldest of
whom is a boy of eight years and the
youngest a baby girl. His wife is a
frail, weak woman. Keller started a
milk route a short while ago and
everything he owns is mortgaged. The
family lives in one room.
