Jew High I'm Catholic Church.

Cardinal Kohn certainly sounds
odd. Still, 1t may be reserved to the
twentieth century to bring US such a
novelty" say the American Israelite.
"Dr. Theodore Kohn, son OF a full
blooded Jew, was in 1893 elected arch
bishop Of the Austrian diocese OF Oh
muetz, one OF the most prominent epis-
copal sees OF Christendom, which had
occasionally been occupied by men,
bers of the imperial family, and which
for three hundred years had been re-
served to members of the highest aris-
tocracy. In 1904 charges were filed
against him in Rome, and. while the
material was not sufficient to try him
for malfeasance, Plus x induced him
to resign. The stipulations OF this
compromise were never made public.
but II was understood that he would
be given a cardinalate. There seems,
however, to be a hitch somewhere. but
the archbishop insists on the fulfil
ment Of the promises made to him"

INDIAN TRIBE NOT EXTINCT
California Expedition Discovers REM
nants Of kombos Near Head
Waters of Sacramento.

San Francisco.-An anthropological
expedition from the University of Cal
i~fornia, under Professor Kroeber, has
reported the discovery of remnants OF
a supposedly extinct tribe of Califor-
MIA Indians near the head waters of
the Sacramento river. The main body
Of the tribe. the Kombos, was exter-
minated In a raid in 1870 by settlers.
According to the members OF the ex-
petition, which has returned from the
north, there are about 20 in the tribe
at present. They were identified by
arrow heads and other implements
found In their camps, although the
aborigines themselves are too wild to
be approached.
The university will try to have them
rounded up by a troop OF United
States cavalry In order that their Ian
guage and ancient customs may be
studied in the interest of ethnology.
Reports from sheepmen in Tehama
county that sheep had been found
killed by arrows led to the search for
the Indians.

An object the size Of a battleship can
actually be hit at that distance.
The riied mortars supplement
these. The mortar is a gun that never
appears. above the breastworks. 1t re-
mains out of sight and drops it's mis-
sile owe the intervening embankment.
The missile takes a curve high into
the air, but its course is so calculated
that 1t will drop upon the enemy.
Powerful bombs are dropped into the
midst OF the hostile camp at a dis
lance Of nine miles. The armor Of the
attacking vessel is avoided in this
case and the shell is dropped in her
vitals.
The fertilization board plans the
building of breastwork Notifications
about the locks where they might be
attacked by land. These works would
be erected at either end of the canal.
In connection with them would be laid
the foundation Of a camp. Sewers
would be laid, water put in. These
are the vital things in an army camp.
With this preparation It would be pos
sible at any time, having the soldiers
available, to meet any land invasion.
Then 1t is planned to establish an
army post at Culebra, the highest and
healthiest point on the isthmus. This
camp will be pitched on the edge of
the big cut opposite the town Of
Culebra. A bridge will be thrown
across the cut to facilitate communi-
cation. Here quarters will be pre-
pared for 5000 soldiers. 1t will be a
model army post for the tropics. Ce-
ment will be the central idea in con-
structious, and hollow walls will lend
themselves to GOODNESS. The moisture
will have no effect Upon them and
ants may not devour them.
Tho garrison would consist of four
regiments of infantry, one squadron of
cavalry and three batteries of field ar
tillery. There would be some twelve
companies of the coast artillery-1,30 300
men. These 1t is contemplated quar-
tering near the Pacific end of the
canal, but they could be quickly trans
ssrred from n station to another.
So It seems reasonable to surmise
that In the end the Notifications at
Panama will be such as the world has
never before known.
If the strongest Of naval forces of
tn, Pacific should attempt to attack a
fragment of our navy at Balboa, the
Pacific terminus Of the canal, the guns
Of the coast defense could hold that
navy at bay until other ba~ttleships
were brought through the canal. The
same thing would be true If the at
tack were made on the Atlantic side
with the process reversed.

COFFEE CONGESTION
Causes a Variety of Ails.


A happy old lady in Wisconsin
says:
During the time I was a coffee
drinker l was subject to sick head
aches, sometimes lasting 2 or 3 days,
totally uniting me for anything.
To this affection was added, some
years ago, q trouble with my heart
that was very painful. accompanied
by a s~mothering sensation and faint
ness.
Dyspepsia, also, came to make life
harder to bear. / took all sorts of pat
ent medicines but none of them helped
me for any length of time.
The doctors frequently told mo
that coffee was not good for me; but
without coffee / felt as If l had no
breakfast. l finally decided about 2
years ago TO abandon the use of cof-
fee entirely, and as l had read a great
deal about Postum / concluded to try
that for a breakfast beverage.
II liked the taste Of 1t and was par
tcularly pleased to notice that 1t did
not come up as coffee used to. The
bad spells with my heart grew less
and less frequent, and finally ceased
altogether. and / have not had an at

them, they neigh and snort. Most
naturalists have, until now, believed
hat the true wild horses with an

1t is the general opinion that the

derived from three wild species, which
have been named the steppe. forest

steppe variety. This horse in its
wild state lives in the level districts
and goes at night to the pasture lands

it returns to the desert, where it rests

Panama canal zone. Maj. Gen.
Leonard Wood has outlined
the needs Of the strip from
the war standpoint. The pre-
liminary sum appropriated and those
amounts that are to follow are to be
placed at the disposition of Col.
George w. Cocktails, chief engineer of
the Panama canal, and the forts and
quarters are to be built IN conjunc-
ton with the other work in this, the
greatest engineering undertaking In
all history.
The Panama canal in its simplest
terms is an inland lake accessible at
either end through locks. The few
milea of channel between the locks
and navigable water on either end are
mere accessories to the canal. The
great Culebra cut is important only be-
cause of the work in making 1t. The
locks are the vital thing when the
work Is done.
For these reasons the board Of for
LITIGATION decided that 1t was between
these locks and the sea that the great
defenses should be built. The high
lands near the sea should be the loca-
ton of the coast defense stations. The
chief of these on the Atlantic side
would be on Toro point, commanding
Limon Bay and the entrance of the
canal. Another battery would be To-
Gated across the bay with the same
command. On the Pacific side the
greatest point of vantage would be
Battle point, with a twin battery on
the opposite side of the canals mouth,
or possibly on the island of Culebra
in the harbor. All of these points
are on high ground and command the
waters within ten miles of the mouth
of the canal.
Military authorities today declare
that the coast defense is the most i'm
pregnable of all Notifications. Hours
of heavy bombarding from a powerful
navy should have little effect upon 1t,
while In return the probabilities are
that It would send many battleships
to the bottom.
The mainstay of the coast defense
Is the disappearing gun. Those to be
used at Panama are to be of 14-inch
caliber. They will be placed back Of
Notifications which are nothing less
than mountain ridges, for the coast
defense station is sunken underground
at the brow of some eminence. The
ammunition, the stores, the men who
operate the guns. are all underground
with many feet OF castiron between
them and any intruding object.
Two styles of guns are the main
dependence of the coast defense, the
l4-inch guns and the rified mortars.
The 14-inch guns adapted to coast de-
lenses Is the most powerful imple-
ment of war known. The missile that
It discharges weighs 1,64O pounds. 1t
would be a good load for two horses
10 drag. 1t is a steel Jacket with
most powerful explosives inside. The
gun IL of such strength as to throw
this missile u distance of ten miles.

AN INCREASE IN TWO MONTHS
From January 7 to March 7 a Gain OF
About a Million and a Half Has Been

Pierre.-With a population Of less
than 600, 900. the people OF South Da-
kota are carrying in the 525 state
banks and 101 national banks, located
within it's borders over $50, 000, 900. OF
this more than s37, 900, 900 is in the
shape of deposits subject to check,
and is used in the daily business trans
actions Of the people. The rest is in
savings deposits, time certificates and
demand certificates. The state banks
were, on the 7th of March, the date
of the last call, carrying $49,S63, 10S.54
in the various accounts listed above,
and the checking and savings accounts
showed increases of about $4,000, 900
in the two months since the previous
call Of January 7, and the time GER
tiicates showed a decrease OF about
$500, 900, or a net gain of a million and
a half In hat time. The national
banks on March 7 carried $685.
of about 81, 500, 900 from the date OF
the call in January. The savings ac-
counts in the banks of both classes for
the two months had increased mate

the time certificates, all the others
showing substantial gains. The people
of South Dakota show their belief in
the stability of the banks Of the state
by the continually decreasing accounts
carried, and the showing of the banks
stands out as one of the strongest pos
sible arguments to the man seeking
a location in the west to come to this
state, as Trey are positive evidence
