$50 Associates Arrested.
One hundred and fifty arrests Of
lawyers and other acquaintances; OF
Dmitrf B0gr0f, the man who shot Stol-
ypin, have been made in Kiev.
Bogrot talked freely Of his past life
and furnished the authorities with VAL
liable, clues. The original confident
behavior Of the prisoner has given
place to dependency and he is now re-.
ceiving medical treatment. Among,
the versions Of the circumstances lead
ing up to. the crime and which must
be Investigated is the assertion that
Bogrof belonged to new autonomous
revolutionary group, the aim of which
lis to assassinate individual statesmen.

Son OF Sevastopoi Defender.
Peter Stolyptn was the son of one Of
che defenders Of Sevastopol, Major
General Arcadia Stolypin. He was
born in 1860. studied law at st. Peters,
burg university and began his bureau
cratic career in the department of
crown lands from which he was trans
ferred to, the department of home af-
fairs. Retiring to his estates in the
province of Kovno, he was elected mar
shall of the nobility in the province,
serving with such distinction that in
1902 the. government appointed him
governor. AS such he won the respect
and liking Of all classes, including the
Jews, by his fairness, his frankness
and his ruthless suppression of abuses
by minor officials.
In 1903 he was made governor Of
Saratoff and remained in that posi-
ton until called to become minister of
the interior last March.

Admits Friction in Department.


Admits Friction in Department.
In the opinion the president admits
what has been we'll known to many
persons close to the administration
that there is trouble in the department
of agriculture. Speaking of the con-
gressional inquiry into that depart
ment, unfinished at the last session
but to be taken up again next winter,
Mr.. Taft says:
THE broader issues raised by the
investigation which have a much
weighter relation than this one to the
general efficiency of the department,
may require much more radical action
than the question I have considered
and decided"
That this statement indicates seri-
Gus shake-up in the department next
winter was freely predicted here to-
day. There have never been any init
nations that Secretary Wilson was dis
posed to retire and it is not believed
here that the president would request
him to do so. A general cleanup of
affairs in the department, however,
could easily he required by the presi-
dent and carried through when he re-
turns to Washington in November.
The Wiley case arose over the en-
ployment Ivy the bureau Of chemistry
of DR.. II. II. Rusby of New York,
pharmacognosist of the bureau. In
effect DR.. Wiley, DR.. l.. F. Kebler, chief
OF the drug laboratory, and DR.. w. D..
Bigelow. assistant chief of the bureau,
were charged with having conspired to
pay DR.. Rusby salary of 81 600 year
was to do only enough work to secure
this amount at the rate of $50 a day.
This was held to violate the acts of
congress approved March is, 1898,
which declared that no classified scien.
tific Investigator should receive more
than SO day. In addition to the rec
ommendation that DR.. Wiley be al
lowed to resign, the personnel board
held that DR.. Rusby should be dis
missed, that Kcblcr be reduced and
that Dr.. Digelow be allowed to quit
the service. None of these recon-
mendations is upheld in the president S
opinion.
DR.. Kebler is reprimanded for dis.
ingenious conduct" in his letter writ.

says that the letters suggest "a will
ingness to resort to evasion" that
calls for official reproof Dr. Bigelow

TROUBLE in DEPARTMENT

Beverly, Mass. - The resignation
of DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, chief Of the
bureau of chemistry in the department

ment service. will not be asked for by
President Taft, despite recommends.
tons that it be requested made by

Wiley which Mr.. Wickersham held to
be necessary, will not be meted out
by the chief executive. The presi-
dents opinion, carrying no word Of
criticism for DR.. Wiley but many q
word of praise. was made public here.
There is no Indication in it that the
president feels that he turned down
MIR. Wickersham by not accepting his
recommendations. He explains that
the attorney generals finding in the
case were made with less complete
data than was before him when he
took it up.

HE GETS AWAY WITH IT
Variety Actor Tackles Second Grave
digger in Hamlet and Steals
All the Laughs.

A company playing Hamlet" was
forced to find. an actor to play the
Second Gravedigger On account of the
illness of the second comedian of the
company. The only actor available
was a variety performer, who had no
reverence for Shakespeare and no re-
spect for the traditions of the classic
drama. The Second Gravedigger was
a comedy part, and he knew that he
could get away with it"
When the First ~Gravedigger threw
off the first waistcoat, revealing an
other underneath, the audience tit
tered. The removal of the second
waistcoat brought a loud laugh, and
the third producer a roar. The First
Gravedigger was delighted. He had
never played to such an appreciative
audience, and visions of good notices
in the papers and a possible increase
in salary began to loom up before his
eyes,. AS he threw off the fourth
waistcoat he turned partly around,
and the cause of the unusual hit was
disclosed to him.
The Second ~Gravedigger, being ac-
customed to build laughs on lines and
business of other actors, saw his op-
p~ortunity and seized it. AS fast as
the First Gr~avedigger would throw
the waistcoats on the ground, the
variety comedian would pick them up
and put them on. The new business
was much funnier to the audience
than the old, with which it was thor
oughly familiar.
Not content with having stolen the
laughs from the regular comedian in
this scene, the new man went fur

said to him, go, get thee to Yaugh-

Be Good at Home.

Ones influence is likely to be
strongest at home. Away from home
one is ION parade" the real character
always more or less concealed, the in
iuence of that character more or less
diverted by the effort to make ones
better self prominent. In the home
we are our true. unaffected selves.
and our real influence upon others has
fullest play. And it is in the house
that we are with those who are dear
est to US, and upon whom we would
like our influence always to be for
the best. Yet how often do we let our
unworthiest selves crop out there, be-
cause at home we are loved and 'un-
derstood," and we know our faults
will be overlooked and forgiven!
Which is true enough; but that fact
does not undo the harm, and the in
iuence these failures are sure to
work. The place where we can least
afford to let down from our highest
endeavor is in the midst of those clos
est and dearest t o US. Our home de-
serves our best. Our home life ought
to be our highest life.-Reformed

Things to Remember.

David says. speaking directly to
himself in the spirit of gratitude,
"Bless the Lord. o my soul, and for
get not all his benefits" He does ex-
meet himself to recall each individual
favor that God has bestowed. the mil
lion of Instances in which the divine
benefits had fallen into his heart and
life. but he begs his soul not to for
get them all. Some persons seem to
have forgotten everything that God
eve did for them. Indeed. the good
ness of God and the kindness of men
seem to be alike forgotten by many,
even in cases where it was hard to
forget" because of the abundant and
almost miraculous care and kindness
of both.
These manifold mercies of God, in
Guiding a countless throng OF kind
words and tender ministries on the
part oil our earthly friends, should
never, never be forgotten.-Religious

If Your Food Fails to Sustain You,

One sort of diet may make a person
Respondent, depressed and blue and a
change to the kind of food the body
demands will change the whole thing.
A young woman from Phila. says:
For several years I kept in a run
down, miserable sort of condition, was
depressed and apprehensive of trouble
l lost flesh in a distressing way and
seemed in a perpetual sort of dreamy
nightmare. No one serious disease
showed, but the 'all-oyer' sickness was
enough.
Finally, between the doctor and ia
Their, l was put on Grape-Nuts and
cream, as it was decided l must have a
nourishing food that the body could
make use of.
"The wonderful change that came
over me was not, like Jonah's gourd,
the growth of a single night, yet it
came with a rapidity that astonished
ne.
During the first week I gained In
weight, my spirits improved, and the
world began to look brighter and more
worth while.
"And this has continued steadily, till
