asmuch as a large part OF the busi-
ness of the court comes from the east
ern end OF the peninsula. In fact. il il
claimed that the majority OF the Grim

view of this districts proximity 20 the
Canadian border and the United states
army post being there. the 500 attor-
neys contend that many cases To be
settled I'm United States court always

ment would be saved much expense
and the 500 people much inconven-
ience n an such cases were tried at
Sault Ste. Marie instead of at Mar

In stating yesterday TO the members
Of the upper peninsula bar his belief
that more terms OF court should be
held in this district. Judge Sessions
said that from September until May
was too long between terms and that
ar injustice was being done upper pen
insula people. He further declared that
he would be GLAD TO endorse a request
of upper peninsula attorneys for one
or two more terms, provided the latter
showed sufficient interst in the matter
20 take the initiative. He made no
suggestion Of the extra terms being
held al Sault ste. Marie, and il is not
known bow ne stands on that propo-
siuon. The 500 attorneys put forth

CHILDREN INJURED
Ordinary Cathartics and Pills and
Harsh Physic Cause Distress
ina COMPLAINTS.

You cannot be over-careful i'm TN,
selection of medicine for children. ON.
ly the very gentlest bowel medicin,
should ever be given, except in emer-
gency cases. Ordinary pills, cathartics
and purgatives are apt to do more
harm than good. They may cause
gripping, nausea and other distressing
after-effects that are freouontt,
ealth-destroying.
We personally recommend and guar.
antee Rexall Orderlies as the safest
and most dependable remedy. which
we know. for constipation and asso.
clate bowel disorders. We have such
absolute faith in the virtues Of this
remedy that we sell 1t on our guaran-
tee OF money back i'm every instance
where 1t fails To give entire satisfac-
tion' and we urge all i'm need of such
medicine to try IL at our risk.
Rexall Orderlles are eaten lust Ike
candy are particularly prompt and
agreeable in action, may be taken at
any time. day or night; do not cause
diarrhoea, nausea. gripping, excessive
looseness or other undesirable effects
They have very mild but positive
action upon the organs with which tbev
come In contact, apparently acting as
regulative tonic upon the relaxed
muscular coat Of the bowel, thus over
coming weakness, and aiding to restore
the bowels to more vigorous and
healthy activity.
Rexall orderlies commonly COM
pletely relieve constipation. except of
course when of a surgical character.
They also tend to overcome the neces-
sity OF constantly taking laxatives 10

RAILWAY DETECTIVES.
They Trace Those Who Steal or De-
stroy Property Of the Road.


The secret service is a hard game
to tackle. but. like all kinds OF work.
II has its easy jobs. One OF them is
that of special agent for n railroad.
The agent is supposed TO trace those
who steal or destroy railroad property.
When he is notified that trunk or
other article Of baggage is missing he
finds out by its number from where It
was sent and follows IL on the books
10 the last station where IL has been
checked. Then he notifies the police
in the vicinity between the station
where the baggage was last checked
and the station where IT should have
been checked. The police get busy.
and probably the property is soon re-
covered and the thieves put In jail.
The baggage is then turned over 10
the special agent. who notifies the rail-
road official that he has recovered the
stolen goods.
If n freight car is robbed the spe-
cial agent pursues the same tactics.
He finds out where the car was last
sealed and the place whore the car was
reported as having its seal broken
The police or constables in the coun-
try between the two points are noti-
fed. and If they fail TO capture the
robbers the railroad may never hear
again Of the stolen goods Wherever
destruction has occurred TO railroad
property it is usually police officers
who trace and arrest those guilty.
However. the special agent must
be keen Judge Of human nature and
with sufficient tact to make himself
popular with the police officers in his
territory. Usually he is an old time
detective and is well enough acquaint-
ed with detectives and police through
out the country TO obtain results where
an amateur would fail.

MYSTERY CHAMBERS.
Famous Locked Rooms In Some Of the
Old British Castles.

O'N SdohiCss
Perhaps the most famous locked
room in the world is at Glamis castle,
the old home of the earls OF Strath-
more. In this rambling pile there is
supposed to be q secret chamber, ac-
cess TO which is known only to the
Earl of Strathmore, the heir apparent
and the factor. The mysterious cham
Der is supposed to have been. centuries
ago, the repository OF a grim family
scandal, the nature of which could
only whispered even In those wild
days.
There is in Poulton Old Hall a mys-
terious locked room which has never
been opened except by a representa-.
tive OF the Green family. The hall and
its lands have sometimes been let, but
the Green family have always retain
ed possession of this mysterious room.
which is supposed to contain several
relics and other family treasures. 1t Is
said that the last tenant. prominent
Mersey shlpowner. would have given
them an increased rent for IL If he
could have had access 10 II or could
have cleared away the mysterious con.
tents. but the owners refused to give
up possession. and so the tenant left.
There is very similar tradition Mt
Neither Hall. the Cumberland seat OF
the Senhouse family. Here. as at
Glamis castle, the position of the Sc
cret chamber is known only to the
heir-at-law and the family solicitor.
The room. 1t is understood. mas no
window and up till now has not been
located by any one not in possession OF
the key 10 the mystery.
A tragic interest attaches to the
ruins of Minister Lovel house. in Ok
fordshire. While it was tenanted by
n farmer concealed vault was dis
covered, and in 1t was the perfect
skeleton of Lord Lovel. seated at a
table on which was lying an open
prayer book. There were some Jars
and barrels which had contained food,
sufficient, no doubt, TO last some
weeks; but. the mansion having fallen
into the hands of King Henry VII,
the prisoner was unable TO regain his
liberty. The discovery cleared up
mystery which had surrounded his
fate for nearly two centuries.-Pear-
