M|CH|CAN CONWCTs RIOT
STATE MILITIA MAY BE CALLED
 TO QUELL TERRIFIC DIN.
Many Inmates of Penitentiary, Yell Ing Since Friday, Too Hoarse
 to Continue.

Jackson, Mich, Sept. 3.-For fifty hours rioting has been in progress in the Michigan state penitentiary at Jackson. because the convicts demand better food and have been on a wildly demonstrative strike"
 Two companies of state militia have been ordered to be in readines to move on the penitentiary and quell the rioting. Unless the fifty guards sworn in by the sheriff of Jackson county are able to quell the disturb ance, the national guardsmen will de- scend upon the prison.
 It was admitted. while the rioting was at it's height that the guards were practically powerless to stop the demonstrations of the 1000 convicts, who demand that the rations fur nished them be of a better grade. One deputy warden has resigned, and the prison steward, who was assaulted by the convicts, refused to return to the prison.
 Many of the prisoners, who had been shrieking and yelling since Fri day when the disturbances started over the food supply. were too hoarse to use their voices, but added to the uproar by beating on the bars of their cells with whatsoever movables they could find.
 Several convicts are in the hospital made i'll by the terrific din. Prison guards. exhausted by the long strain, have been replaced by special depu- ties.
 A heavy cordon of special police surrounds the prison and all Jackson fears that the outbreak will lead to a general delivery. Prison officials ad- nit the fear that the prison building may be fired or that the boilers will be exploded.
 The "bull pen" Is crowded with the unruly inmates, but the clamor did not diminish. Every window in the prison has been broken and several guards have suffered minor injuries.

BUILD PALACE FOR RADIUM
Lead Walls of the Safe Necessary to Shut in the Potent Rays of
 the Element.

Paris, Sept. 3.-The radium palace" which is to be built in Paris for the use of Mme. Curie and the Pasteur Institute. will. 1t is said, cost $S0,O00 Probably all the radium it will con- tain when finished could be accommo- dated in a thimble, though necessitat ing an expenditure greater than the cost of the palace" The elaborate precautions against burglary which are to be taken scarcely seem neces. sary; no burglar would waste his time stealing few grains of dirty-looking salt, which could be disposed of in no channel he could use. But the leaden walls of the safe in which the radium is to be kept are all essential, for lead offers the most effective resistance to the passage of the potent rays which night and day radium shoots out in every direction. And, curiously enough, lead appears to be the final product resulting from the successive transformations the wonder element undergoes.

 Skyscraper Safety.

Washington, Sept. 3.-Seventeen steamships bearing the flower of the engineering profession of the world from twenty-six countries as delegates to the sixth international congress for testing materials, will reach this coun- try within the next few days.

Miss Rosa Omega
Booker Passed away
Sunday Morning

After a long illness of between
six and seven years Miss Rosa
Omega Booker passed out of this
world of suffering to her heavenly
home at $50 O'Clock a. m. on last
Sunday morning at the home of
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. p. R.
Booker, on North Longstreet. She
had suffered for a number of years
with what seemed to be epilepsy
and although her death was not
unexpected, yet it came SO sudden
that it was a great shock to her
family and many friends.
Miss Rosa would have been
tweIty-seven years of age on the
22nd of the present month and has
been resident of this city for a
number of years. She was a
young woman of usual PERSONAL
ty and was loved by all who knew
her. Before her affection came on
her she was a faithful church
worker and Sunday School helper,
and was never happier than when
surrounded by the little children
and teaching and talking to them
of the life hereafter. She loved
nothing better than the Junior

ALE. SAYS ROOSEVELT.

WLKESBARRE, Pa, Aug. 21.-An attack on Senator Penrose was made by Roosevelt tonight after he read the senator's statement in the senate oday. The eNpresident quoted from letters and telegrams which he sent to George B. CorteYOu, chairman of the repub- lican national committee in 1904, to prove that no contribution had been accepted from the Standard Oil com pany
 "PenrOse, his allies and the entire crowd of crooked politicians, and crooked financiers have attempted to make these attacks upon me-" said Roosevelt. "They have made them, and are making them. not only know false. because they know that the forces behind me, which I at this time represent. are the only forces the crooked politicians and crooked finan- ciers of the country have really to fear"
 The only part of Penrose's stateme ent that needs comment by me is that DOT tion in which it is asserted I had been advised of the heavy campaign contri- buttons of Archbold in behalf of the Standard oil company to the republi- can national committee. That l directly or indirectly requested a contribution from Archbold and his associates in terested in the Standard Oil company is false"

county MT Hughes has met many pleasant gentlemen who wish that they had not met him. He was not known by the victims to be allied with the authorities until yesterday.
 Though his name was attached to
 the warrants of arrest, most of those
 upon whom the warrants were served
 did not identify the complainant as
 . liberal patron who had been visit
 ing their places, They supposed that
 the complainant was pr. Hughes who
 is known to entertain a strong and chronic feeling on the subject of the Gispensation of ardent liquors but they wondered how the doctor had come into possession of the informa- ton on which the warrants were based
 The arrest of several of the sellers was learned with surprise by thelr neighbors for they were supposed to ] be law abiding citizens.
