Health a Factor in Success.

The largest factor contributing to a
mans success Is undoubtedly health.
It has been observed that a mar Is
seldom sick when his bowels are reg
ular-he Is never well when they are
c~onstipated. For constipation you will
find nothing quite so good as Cham
berlain's Tablets. They not only move
the bowels but improve the appetite
and strengthen the digestion. They
are sold by all dealers.-Advt.

D|Az IS ARRESTED
AFTER BEING STABBED
Slightly Wounded In A|terca-
tiOn in Havana.

General Felix Diaz, who was stabbed
by Mexican assassins in Havana, was
arrested upon the charge of shooting
Pedro Guerrero, one Of his assailants.
The police allege that Diaz, after
shooting Guerrero and seriously
wounding him, handed the revolver to
one of his companions. Guerrero IS
said to be the man who stabbed Diaz
in the neck.
Emeterio De La Cara, formerly In
the diplomatic service of Mexico and
the charge daffaires of the Mexican
legation, protested to the Cuban gov
ernment because Diaz and his friend
was arrested.
Diaz was seated in a park seat in
the Malecon with fellow refugee, Ce-
clio Ocon, and Luis Nadia, manager
of the street car lines of Mexico City,
when five Mexicans, among them
Guerrero, passed the Diaz party.
Diaz is said to have made some un.
pleasant remarks about the followers
of Carranza, whereupon Guerrero went
to the sea wall, where other Mexicans
were seated, and informed them OF
Diaz's alleged insult. The entire group
came back to where D!az and his
friends were conycrs:ng and hot words
were exchsns ed.
Guerrero sprang to Dlaz with a knife
and wounded him. The two struggled
for a moment together, when a police
man seized Guerrero by the shoulders.
Some cne drew a revolver and fired,
the bullet striking Guerrero.
The police succeeded in arrestins
three Mexicans. All were placed IN
coaches and taken to the Emergency
hospital, where the wounds of Diaz
and Guerrero were dressed. Besides
two stab wounds in the neck D1az re-
ceiyed various bruises from canes.

Drunken Prisoners Terrorize Jail.
Two drunken prisoners with riot
gun and 1000 rounds Of ammunition
held high carnival in the Morris coun-
ty Jail ct Morristown, N. J.
They terrorized the other prisoners,
riddled the keepers Office with bullets
and failed in their plot for wholesale
jail delivery only because they drank
too much liquor after tescaping from
their cells.
The two prisoners, Eugene Sampson
and John Burns, were placed in the
hospital ward with several other pris-
oners, charged, like themselves, with
minor offenses. Sampson and Burns
picked the lock to a door which leads
into the keepers office. Entering the
Office they broke open a desk and go;
bottle of liquor that had been taken
from a prisoner few hours before.
This they drank.
Then they broke into store room
and got the riot gun and ammunition.
On a shelf nearby lay other riot
guns, but these the prisoners did not
touch.
Returning to the hospital ward, they
closed the iron door and began firing
through it. AS each shell contained n
number of bullets the keepers office
was riddlod.
At daylight police and detectives
entered the Jail. They found the in.
mates in a state of terror. Burns and
Sampson were asleep in corner.
