A PICNIC BARBECUE
A Big Time Will be Had in The
Pine Hills on The
4th of July.

The people of Ekalaka have
decided not to celebrate July 4th
in town this year but instead will
hold a big Free Picnic and Grand
Barbecue in the pine hills south
east of town. A comnitte has
been at work for several days ar
ranging a program and they in
tend to stir up an event that will
long be remembered by those
who attend. The R. C. Charters
Co. has donated to the COM
mite the steer for the barbecue
and the rest of the business men
have come across in the way of
eatables and funds. The pro-
gram besides the big barbecue
will consist of a ball game, a
boWery dance, wrestling, foot
races and other events. Every
thing will be free and everyone
is cordially invited to come and
have a good time. The grounds
for the picnic has been selected
and is on the J. E. Wilson prop
erty, just to the east of the road
leading from Ekalaka to Box
Elder. 1t is about five miles from
town and accessible from nearly
every road. Signs will be posted
along the road to the picnic
grounds for those who are not
acquainted with the location.
Anyone in town will be glad to
show you the way out so don't
let the location keep you away.
The barbecue will be under the
supervision of men who UNDER
stand this work and promises to
be done up right. Every effort
is being put forth by the bust
ness men of Ekalaka to make
this the biggest event Of the
year and hope to find you all
there to enjoy their hospitality.
1t will be to your interest to at
tend this picnic, not only to have
a good time but to express your
views on a new proposition that
is to be talked over. The CON-
mercial cluh has taken steps for
the location Of a cream station
in Ekalaka and have written to
several creamery men through
out the country, inviting them
to come and meet with you.
The proposition is to establish
a station here for the shipment
of the the cream product Of this
country to the railroad to some
we'll known creamery, and it
should receive the support of
every dairyman throughout this
territory.
Remember of all things that
this picnic and barbecue is all
free and that no one is barred.
Bring along some trimmings for
the big feed such as cake, ice
cream and plenty of bread and
let US celebrate the glorious 4th
as it has never been celebrated
before. More particulars of this
big event will appear next week.
Watch for them.

Surgeons Discovery Does Away with

Burns.

Philadelphia, Dec. 27--Dr, Max Staller
at Mount Sinai hospital has made the
discovery that the white lining Of Egg
shells can be used as substitute for
human skin in grating operations after
burns and scalds.
Experiments at the hospital for three
months have been successful in every
case. In one case a woman was so fear
fully burned that it was doubted she
would live through the operation. She
will soon be able to leave the hospital

When placed on a burned surface, the
membrane becomes larger and nrger, un-
til it joins other pieces placed on the
flesh at distances of an eighth to a quar-
ter of an inch apart. In the course of
weeks, the surface is covered with new
skin.
1t has long been the custom in eases
OF serious burns to graft skin from
healthy person to the affected part. In
many cases it has been impossible to
find persons willing to give their skin,
and the patients have died

at a meeting Of the Southeast branch Of
the County Medical society. He would
not discuss the discovery yesterday on
ground of professional ethics. Other
doctors at the hosp;t told of the origin

all the credit for making the discovery.

New York, Dec. 27.-An improved

death risk Of anaesthesia to nothing and

The method has been used in about
5000 cases without single death caused
by the anaesthetic.

A Dainty Toilet Article.

Every lady who desires to keep up her
attractive appearance while at theatre,
attending receptions, when shopping,
while travelling and on all occasions,
should carry in her purse a booklet Of
Gouraud's Oriental Beauty Leaves. This
is dainty little booklet Of exquisitely
pcrfumed powdered leaves which are
easily removed and applied to the skin.
1t is invaluable when the face becomes
moist and flushed and is far superior to
a powder puff, as it does not spill and
soil the clothes.
It removes dirt, SCOT and grease from
the face, imparting a cool delicate bloom
to the complexion. Put up in white

kai has submitted to the more promi-
nent Manehus here the proposal emanat
ing from Shanghai for the meeting Of
special national convention, in order to
decide on the future form OF government
which shall be adopted for China. This

its own fate because the members of such
a national assembly would decide in ia

to do so will be promulgated as an edict

HARRY THAW WILL Be

Hospital Authorities Said to Have Ad-
mitted That Release Is

Matteawan, N. r., Dec. 81 From a
source of reliability which cannot be
questioned came an announcement Mon
day night that Harry X. Thaw, the
slayer Of Stanford White. who has been
a patient in the state hospital for the
criminal insane here for several years
will be free man within two months.
The information came from one close
t. the Thaws and to the hospital au-
thorities, though permission to make
public the name Of the informant was
emphatically denied
For many months the Thaws have
heen preparing for another attempt to
effect the liberty Of the slayer. Detec-
tives have been in their constant em-
ploy and prominent New York lawyers
among them Clarence J. Shears have
been in constant touch with Thaw Rep
resentatives Of the lawyers have visit
ed the hospital and have had many con-
ferences with Thaw
The plan decided upon is to obtain an.
other writ Of haheas corpus and de-
mand trial by Jury as to the sanity
Of the patient II was Said BY the in
formaut that DR. James V May, medical
superintendent OF Matteawan, would be
called to testify as to Thaw's sanity,
and that Or. May would state that since
he has been watching Thaw he has not
noticed any evidences Of dangerous in
sanity.
DR.. May was asked some time ago to
make a statement as to Thaws condi.
ton, and refused. He said he would
do 50 if Thaw ever demanded another
hearing, but as state official he did
not think IL would be Just for him to
do so before testifying in court.

Riot Reports From Persia Alarm
London
THE RUSSIAN ATROCITIES
Tabriz Also Storm Center--Dispatche'
Say That Persia Is Stupefed
by the Russian Out
RACES.

London, Dec. 27--The proclamation
of martial law at Teheran, following
the dismissal of w. Morgan Shuster by
the Persian cabinet, and the fragmentary
reports received of q bloody massacre by
Russian soldiers at Resht, are causing
serious apprehension here.
Little additional information regard
ing the reported massacre has been re-
ceived
According to the latest advices, the
main trouble occurred last Sunday, when
the killed at Resht are said TO have
numbered 500, including some women
and children.
Direct dispatches from Teheran make
no reference to these serious casualties
and report from the Russian consul
at that point states that order is now
restored, although he is preparing for
further outbreaks.
The strategic point of Tabriz, $50
miles to the northwest OF Teheran, is
another center of constant and serious
collisions between the Russian and Per-
sian elements.
A small force OF Russians has been
stationed there for some time and has
been recently reinforced The Russian
troops have come into contact on sew
eral occasions with the populaee and one
dispatch received here says the Russian
artillery swept the streets, while anoth-
err through Russian sources, says that q
condition of anarchy exists even the
banks being without adequate military
guards to protect their funds.
The latter is evidently suggestion on
the part of the Russians that a strong
military force is essential to safeguard
vested property interests in Persia and
as giving an explanation for the decisive
exercise OF force by the Cossacks at
various points.
