Then, with trembling fingers she broke the seals and undid the string with which the box was tied. It contained nothing but bundle of papers.
 The box was provided with a false bot tom, which permitted the removal or it's contents without breaking the seals or untying any knots.

The box was placed at the foot of the altar, taper was lighted, and Giuseppina repeated the special prayers at the dictation of her kind instructress. Finally the latter held up the box for a few moments, and returned it to her in- genuous dupe. '"rhe box is now blessed.' she said; "carry it home, but do not open it for a week.

I wrote recently of the work which
 is being done by Uncle Sans air men
 and ventured the opinion that when the
 time came for the test of aerial warfare
 the United States would not be found
 lacking.
 Added proof of the soundness of my
 proposition is found in the announcement
 that the young government aviators at
 government school are now preparing to
 make night flights. They are looking for
 a satisfactory searchlight that will en-
 able them to guide their machines over
 the country surrounding the aviation field
 without danger.
 Moonlight flights have for sometime been discussed by the young officers who comprise the first generation of army birdmen, and the experience to be had from expeditions after imaginary
 enemies will, it Is thought be invalua- hle. Probably the most important part of the night flights is the selection of a
 searchlight and fuel that will be reli-
 able compact and easily operated. So far the search for light has been confined to acetylene gas, which can be carried in small tanks, but there has
 been talk of the invention of special fuel for the work that will enable the
 aviators to make flights of almost in definite length
 When the night flights are started it Is planned to keep bright bonfires ! at each corner of the aviation field, for even in the daytime 1t Is difficult to select smooth place to land In this way. 1t is argued, there would be no chance for an aviator, confused by the darkness surrounding him, to lose his bearings and be forced to descend either in ignorance of the ground or l to remain in flight till dawn. searchlight attached to an aeroplane could be operated by the aviator, or, perfectly by a passenger.

REFORMS ARE IN
 MANY DIRECTIONS
Even Congressional Record
 Feels Wave
UNCLE SAM'S AIR MEN
Now Experimenting With Light Which Will Enable Them to Take Long Flights at
 Night
By RALPH NJ. wHrTEsmE

Washington, August 26.-(SpecIal.) )-This is certainly a reform Congress. Not the least notable reform inaugurated is in connection with the Congressional Record. Heretofore, that able and enterprising publication has led off with speeches never delivered in Congress under the time honored "leave to print custom. But now this is to be changed. The actual pro- ceedings of Congress hereafter are to be given the best portion in the paper and the 'leave to print speeches are to go in the back of the book, where nobody need look at them If they don t want to.
 Naturally the Senate proceedings are to take precedence and will start with the front page.
 It is now within the limits of hope that in time further reform will be inaugu- rated and the Record will actually be verbative report of what happens in Congress.
 It would seem that the government does enough for statesman when it pays the postage on his campaign documents with out doing his printing as well. If the lean to point part should be cut off it would save many thousands of dollars in the expense of the govern ment printing office, for which the pub lie gets no returns whatever.

BETTER THAN MEDICINE

BETTER THAN MEDICINE
The Increase in the Deaths Result
ant from Grip ard Pneumonia is
Most Alarming, and Physicians
Everywhere are Recommending
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey as a
Reliable Cure and Sure Preventive.
Scientists and physicians have
been appalled, at the rapid increase i'll
the death rate from acute respiratory
diseases, especially in the large cities.
Statistics from cities, large and
crease in the prevalence and fatality
OF grip and pneumonia, have demand
cd an immediate and sure preventive.
Grip, and pneumonia attack the
system quickly and relentlessly.
They are especially dangerous at this
season of the year when exposure to
sudden and@severe changes of wealth
cr and atmospheric conditions is ire
quent. They are sure to attack the
system run down from worry, over
work or exposure.
For more than fifty years Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey has been recog-
niZed as a wonderful remedy in the
prevention of coughs, colds, grip,
pneumonia, and all diseases of the
respiratory organs. Physicians who
stolidly conform to the ethics of the
profession publicly recommend it
and are prescribing it for their pa
tents. 1t is i'll use in leading hospi-
tails Throughout the country.
The secret of the marvellous sue
cess OF Dutty's Pure Malt Whiskey
in curing and preventing throat and
lung troubles lies in the fact that it
is the greatest strengthened and
health builder known to medicine,
and it not only checks the ravages of
the disease itself, but replaces the
weakened, destroyed tissues, helps
the stomach to more perfectly digest
and assilmilate food in order that
more, richer and purer blood may
come from it, and regulates and
governs the hearts action, so that
circulation will be strong and pow
erful, carrying health and vigor to
every organ and part of the human
body.

NOT A PASSENGER KILLED

Figures compiled by the railroads
show that during 1910 not a single
passenger was killed on the Union
Pacific, Southern Pacific or Southern

During that. period there were car
ried on these lines an aggregate of
49,49l 900 passengers, or, in other
words. 3,0OO,OO0O00 passengers were
carried one mile.
This is the result of electric block

to do more than hand offending chauf-

Spies arrested Thomas Boyhan, a
chauffeur. who, he said. attempted TO
cross one Hundred and Twenty fifth
street ahead of the signal. When the
policeman ordered Boyhan back the
chauffeur swung into one Hundred and
Twenty-htth street instead OF obeying
orders.

slipped a moose around his neck. 1t was
quickly fastened to a mea hook in the
low ceiling and the thieves lifted him
off the floor.
Then they demanded his money.
When they loosened the moose to let
him speak Lacala tried to fight. They
hauled him up again and began to
carve his face with their knives.
Again they let him down and again
he refused to tell where his money was.
Up he was dragged again. m they
sliced his nose and gashed his Eye
brows as ne choked, while they searched
his clothing for his money. After this
torture they let HIN down a third time
and gave him a chance to give up his
.ash without further abuse. but he
would not give in. rnen they found
his money.

THE RHACH I011 GUIDE.

That one more ball season Is upon
us is convincingly demonstrated
through the appearance of Reach's
Official American League Guide for
1911; being, as usual. first in the
field and this Spriss earlier than
ever. The 1911 Reach Guide. which
has been edited for many years by
Editor Richter, of Sporting Life" is
always up to the high standard set
by the Reach Guide ever since the
incumbency Of the present editor, but
il can be justly stated that the 1911
Reach American League Guide is the
best 70 the long Reach series and SUI
perior to any similar publication in
the world. alike in the matter Of
text, illustrations, quality of paper,
binding and all the details that go
to make up a handsome as well as
readable boOk--in short the American
League Oficial Guide for 1911 is In all
respects a first-class hand book for
the National game and a decided
credit to the American League and to
the publishers. the Reach Company,
of Philadelphia. This Is the tenth
annual issue of the Reach Guide as
the official handbook OF the American
League and the twenty-ninth consecu-
tive year of its publication as a book
of record and reference for the en-
tire baseball world.
