PAST FIFTY? YOU
 NEED "CASCARETS
WHAT GLASSES ARE TO WEAK EYES, CAScARETS' ARE TO WEAK 6OWELS-lA 10-CENT CENT BOX WILL TRULY
 AMAZE YOU.

Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation. The condi- tion is perfectly natural. It is just as natural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic And the bowels are muscles.
 So all old people need Casea@ets. One might as well refuse to aid weak eyes with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels must ne kep, active. This is important at all ages, but never so much as at fifty.
 Age is not a time for harsh physics. Youth may occasionally whip the bowels into activity. But lash can t be used every day. What the bowels of the old need is a gentle and natural tonic. One that can be constantly used without harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets and they cost only 10 cents per box at any drug store. They work while you asleep.

Vigo, Spain, Jan 16.-The British steamer Neronese, with 139 passen- gers on board, was wrecked at all early hour this morning off Leixos, the outport of Oporto. Eighty-four of the passengers were saved by life lines from shore, but it is reported that sixteen were thrown out of the basket and perished
 The steamer Hollandia stood by the Veronese all the morning, but the tremendous seas made 1t impossible to rnder assistance. The stranded vessel could not be reached by boats put finally the life savers managed to get their lines aboard.
 When the HIollandia left, the work Of rescue was still going on, but it was feared the ship would break mp rapidly

your trouble if you would testify in the case?'
 As far as my recollection, it was"
 Did that occur in the presence of Mir. Witt, who was with me at that time-thes other gentleman?"
 Yes, sir; l don't know who he were
 On further eFoss-examinaticn Bulas admitted that in the county jaii dur ing the night he had admitted that he had sworn lies, that he believed in doing so he could make things lighter for himself, and that he had told the jail mates of having sworn falsely.
 Bulas was held yn a charge of trespass, and to be certain that he would not get away, Deputy Prose cutting Attorney Wilmington, yester- day filed an information charging him with perjury This information was placed with Deputy Constable Sam Tate for service, and Bulas will be held to answer this charge
 Alter Bulas as a witness for the state, was disposed of, the evidence Johnston had given in the perlimi- nary examination was read into the record of this case by Deputy Whit tington, after which the state rested it's case.
 Following the conclusion of the di- rect evidence by the state there was motion made by Jnuge Farmer to give a peremptory instruction to the jury to bring in a verdict of acuuit- tai, based on the insufficieney of the evidence the state had submitted Judge Farmer argued that the state had failed wholly to make a case, and. that the court should give the in- struction.
 This argument was answered by Prosecuting Attorney Witt and Deputy Wilmington in effect that the case should go to the jury, and that the jury should be the judges of the sui ficlency or insufficiency of the evi- dence as furnished by the state.
 Circuit Judge Gotham answered that at that time he would not give the peremptory instruction. but that he would consider a renewal Of the motion at another period of the prog ress of the trial
 Judge Farmer then began the tes- timony of the defense by the in troduction of a number of witnesses who testified they would not believe Buias on oath, and that he bore bad reputation in his community After this, the introduction of members of the coroner's jury was in order the defense proving by these that the coroner's jury had made an investigation about the site where the body was found, and had found nothing to indicate a struggle, or that a shot had been fired at that scene.

ARMY OFFICERS ARE
 SEVERELY CRITICISED
X ENT UckY REPRESENTATIVE SAYS THEY ARE INCOMPETENT
 TO COMMAND IN BATTLE.

Washington, Jan. 16.-Criticism of the army officers of this country and the army in general by Representative Helm of Kentucky marked consider dtion of the army appropriation bill in the house today. Mir Helm charg- ed that the officers of the army were inefficient and incapable of perform ing the duties expeL,ed of them.
 s"l doubt very much if there is an officer in the army today who. in the line of battle, could direct the lire that line" he declared.
 The measure had progressed so far as the provision for the pay of the officers when Representative Helm opened fire. He said that the off. ceTs were jealous, touchy, and had to be handled with care, and charged that they had entered into contest to see which one could get the most out of the army appropriation bill.
 Representative Hay of Virginia. chairman of the committee having the bill in charge, resented these statements and declared never had the test come, but that the officers of the army were able to withstand it.
 An amendment offered by Repre-. sentative Hay creating the office of personal aid" to the president, went ont on a point of order The meas ure still was under consideration when the house adjourned.
 The bill carries $93,S3O,177, an in- crease of nearly $S,OOO,O00 over the last appropriation.

For example we could confer discretion

to confer such discretion on the insur-

santa Fe Opposes Bill to Pay
EmnIoyees Twice q Month.


Employees Twice a Month.
( L Copeland. treasurer Of the Santa
Fe has presented an argument in the
Kansas legislature against the twice
a month pay day" bill and has offered
documentary evidence to the effect that
it would cost the Santa Fe $4,000 and
all the railroads in the state OF Kansas
S45.0 900 per month to meet the reQuir-
ments Of the bill.
The intricate but effective methods
by which the railroads pay their en-
plOyeeS, from track labOrers to high
officials, was exposed to the view Of
the senate committee. 1t was shown
that the railroads we're now expend-
ing their earnings in improved equip
ment and other advantages to the rail-
road patron, and that an increase in
expense of operation, such as the
twice month bill demanded, would
naturally react as a reduction OF eX-
penditures in improvement.
The contention Of those favoring the
bill is that the general tendency is
toward cash transactions in all com
mOdities and that the man who gets
his money at semi-monthly intervals,
would have cash in hand for numer-
Gus purchases, and get better results
for his money.
The full crew" bill was also as
saulted at the cOmmitte meeting. 1t
was shown from the report Of wages
paid to brakemen that an extra brake
man on each train would cost the rail-
roads Of Kansas as much as $500, 900
per year and that the extra brakeman
was uncalled for Reports from the
Pennsylvania dailroad was submitted
to show that the third brakeman was
a mistake. The Pennsylvania road
complies with the state law requiring
an extra" on through freights, but as
a safety precaution, the extra man is
ordered to ride in the caboOse and re-
frain from interfering in the transmits
sion of signals between the regular
men on top Of the cars.

BoweLs Get Weak
As Age Advances
The First Necessity Is to Keep the
BODels Gently Open With
Mid Laxatipe Tonic.

Healthy old age is so absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition OF the
bowels that great care should be taken
to see that they act regularly. The fact
is that as age advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive and
the liver does not store up the juices
that are necessary to prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eating
easily digested foods and Dy plenty of
exercise, but this latter is irksOme to
most elderly people. One thing is GER
tain, that a state Of constipation should
always be avoided as it is dangerous to
life and health. The best plan is to take
a mild laxative as often as is deemed
IS suggested that cathartics purgatives,
physics, salts and pills be avoided, as
they do but temporary good and are so
harsh as TO be a shock 70 a delicate
system.
A much better plan. and one that
thousands o. elderly people are follow
ing, is TO take a gentle laXative-tOnic
acts as nearly like nature as is possible.
In fact, the tendency Of this remedy is
to strengthen the stomach and bowel
muscles and so train them to act natur-
ally again, when medicines Of all kinds
can usually be dispensed with. This IS
the opinion Of many people Of different
ages. among them Mr. O. P Miller,
Baroda, Mich. who writes: Il am so
years old and have been cGnstipated for
many years Since receiving yOur
sample bottle have procured two soc
bottles and FIND that ii is the best rem
edy ever used and does just what you

$4,000 for Stock Exchange Seat.
A seat in the stock exchange has Just
been sold for $4,000. This was regard
ed as a wonderful bargain, as it is the
lowest price paid for a seat since 1901.
But IT Is causing comment in the city,
altogether aside from the congratulations
which its purchaser may be receiving
upon his initiation into the charmed
body. just as the prices of stocks on
the exchange are regarded as a sort of
barometer, indicating the prosperity of
the country, and whether times are i'm

as an index Of the condition of the stock

Wall street has been so severely scored

no hints of dependency among its hab-
itues. With the growing likelihood of

regulate the workings of the exchange.
the volume of business. and the value of
