to tell anything; that she would get
 them all in trouble. She said at that
 time she was preparing to be a wit ness in the Boston case involving $1S0,O00, another insurance case. She requested the transcript of the testi- mony she gave in the city court and I pointed out the statements in cross examination which showed that her testimony was improbable. She said she could see on testimony that she
 lied, adding that if I had not been so rough she would have admitted it on the witness stand She said to me: tSlade, you know I have tried to save Katz. I don't care what becomes of me- I said to her: Dora, it appears yeu are tool, but you are not as bad as those who advised you ''

LEADER MURPHY
 TO BE CALLED IN
 ELECTION PROBE

New York, Aug. 6.-Contr4butfons to Gov. SulEer's campaign for election, last fall, were again under fire with the resumption here, today, of hear. dngs by the FrawIey legislative com 1n1ttee which has transferred it's sit- tinss from Albany. Interest was aroused in the session by the possi- to1dty tnat both Charles F. Murphy the leader of Tammany Hall and Governor SuIzer may appear as wit nesses while the committee is sitting here.
 Another prospective witness was the Rev. O. R. Miller, who has published statements alleging improper conduct on the part of certain senators in con nect1on with a legislative bill in which certain mercantile agencies were in terested. Miller challenged MT. Fraw- ley, chairman of the Investigating committee, with the statement that the committee would not dare to call him as a witness whereupon the chair man te1egraphed Miller inviting him to appear as a, witness either today or tomorrow. The committee members declare their belief that this attack upon certain senators was irspir ed by those who desired to discredit the work of the investigators of the Su1zer fund.
 Along the line of inquiry today, sev- eral officials of the Farmers Trust Company were subpoenaed as witness eS in connection with the investigation of the bank account of Louis A. Sar-. ecky, confidential clerk.

ICE A NECESSITY.

An elderly man, observing an ica cart distributing freely in a tenement district, was heard to remark that when he was young every one got along without buying any fee. He regarded it as an extravagauce foB poor people.
 Farmers, he said, almost never used to have 1t. They lowered perishables into wells Of course a descendins bucket might tip the milk can over. which made the water look sickly, bud did no harm. Of course farmers ver, commonly have tc1e now, but if 1t is in cool attitudes, they cut 1t from theib own little ponds
 Still it is very questionable if it psva even a poor man to go without a. lit4 tie ice if he can possibly buy it. WIth4 out, his milk and butter waste almost fast enough to pay for the refrigera4 tor.
 The poor mans poverty never faIId much more heavily than when he let4 the ice man go by. No one can eat a square meal on hot day from warm and partly tainted foods. There ara few more practical charities than fred ice stations.

A message Of hope to ali who are sick
 Have you been pronounced a chronic invalid? Do not let that discourage you. It does not mean that you can not regain what you have lost. Few, indeed, are the persons for whom health is for1orn hope if nature is given half a chance to assert her curative powers.
 - The primary cause of your trouble is located in the spine. Why not try Chiropractfc (spinaD adjustments and get well?
 A doctor who is taking Spinal Ad- il1stments of Alex N. Cook, DC, 65d State street. says he feels better than he has in five years.

CANNIBALISTIC SCORPIONS
Child Laboz. in This Country Voted fin
 Same Glass With Cann1baITsm.

(Ry Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner) Washington, Aug. 6.-Garrett F. SerV1ss, whose scientific discussions are always interesting has been telling about the scorpion a cannibaI fnsecf Scorpions fight and the victor devours the Vanquished. And the fema Ie scorpion will often eat her own broods of offspring.
 The scorpion is very low in the mental scale, even among insects There are other forms of animal life which are cannibalfstic. Most fishes are cannibals. But as rule, the higher one goes in the scale of anf- nal life, the less cannibalism is found.
 In practically all the higher anil mals the protection of offspring is one of the hercest of brute instincts The female animal with young is no tortously more savage and dangerous than the male. Even the tfnorous rabbit will fight desperately to pro tect her offspring, while any lover Of outdoors knows of the pathetic de- cefts employed by mother quail and pheasant to lure fntruders away from their nests.
 In fact, to find the refinement of cruel cannibaIism one must skip from the female scorpion devouring he., brood up to the very highest form, of animal life, the two-leggedd, upright animal which is the only animal en- dowed with a moral sense Man of modern civilization is the prototype of the scorpion.
 Many savage tribes are cannibalistic but these beings, little better than beasts. at least have the virtue. of pracueiug their horrible custom only upon enemies taken in battle. Mod ern Americans live upon their own children.
 As long as Americans permit child labor they are canniba.listic. Child 10H . it costs the lives of many of it's help less victims.
 Every yard of cloth that is. bought over the counter, every pound of coal consumed in stoves and furnaces nev- cry can of fruit or vegetables eaten into which child labor has gone,rnakes the purchaser morally 8 cannibaI just as surely as if this country sanction ed the slaughter of children at abba totrB as an industry.
 Some day the people of this ooun- try will awake. to this respors1bi1fty and then there will be no more child labor in our factories
 There were two interesting local events in Washington, D. C., recently A newspaper invited subscriptions to buy a $500 anniversary cup for Walter Johnson, the baseball pitcher And @ charitable person found a young girl in Washington whose eyesfght might be saved if $100 were contrfbut- ed to send her to a hospital for an op- eration.
 The pitcher gets a salary reported. to be around $9,0OO a year. The af- f1icted girl is wretchedfy poor and friendiess.
 The enthusiastic citizens of Wash ington, many of them in poor cfrcum- stances, clipped in their pennies and quarters and dollars in such quantity thatsthe $500 for the cup was not only I71% cash to put in the cup.
 But the attempt to raise $1oO to save the sight of the girl who is go- ing blind, was failure.

AN EMBARRASSING LAW.

There is law requiring stock to be
inspected before shipping into or out
of the state. w. A. Younie was max
ing a shipment of car of goods to
his new home in California this week
and planned to put in a pony and a
COW that were pets in the family.
When the car was ready to be billed
out it was held up for stock inspec-
ton, and they were informed that the
tubercular test would take three
days. The inspector happened to be
away from home and nobody knew
when he would be back.
At last accounts the car was stand
ing on the siding with demurrage
charges accumulating, and Mr.. Alex
Younie who had the matter in charge
says this is only one of the many
ways in which people are hampered
SO they can scarcely do business. The
government gives the public no no.
tice of existing laws by publication
and meets out swift punishment IL
they are violated.

Wilson tell him for me that If there

that I have can be used for the
country, they are wholly at his dis

were related today in an address by
Colonel Harvey before a gathering
of bankers and other representatives
of men at dinner of the trust COM
panies of America.
Mr.. Morgan was Republican, and
in the words of Colonel Harvey, not
only regarded the political views ad-
vanced by Mr.. Wilson with honest ap-
prehension, but never considered
the Democratic party fully capable Of
governing this nation" His message

cited as measuring the depths of the

more of them, and more of your
farmers must know how to take prop

condemned and the farmer feels he
