Down beside the brook I saw some beautiful scarlet salvias. Then there were quan- titles of blue and purple daisies and goldenrod. which completed my col- lection of wild flowers for the day. ard I thought I had nice bouquet

Commander Rice and Lieut.. Thos.
S. Creswell were drowned to-day
when a sea plane in which they
were flying plunged into the sea.
The sea plane was engaged with
other air craft in manoeuvres.
A torpedo boat recovered Cres-
wells body, which was strapped to
the f1ying machine, but the body Of
Commander Rice was not found.
1t is believed that the accident
was due to an explosion caused by
the ignition of escaping gases by

PLEADS BEFORE ENGLAND KING
In Unaccountable Manner Woman
Gains Access to Royal Court.

London, June 4.-The King and
Queen held court at Buckingham
Palace tonight, and despite all pre-
cautions a militant suffraSette gain
ed access to their presence and in
terruDted the presentations. AS she
was passing The King the ~suffrageLte
dropped on her knees and cried
"Your Majesty. for Gods sake dent
use force"
The woman was attired in court
dress and her action caused conster-
nation. She continued to admonish
the King, but the conductor Of the
band in the galleries signalled to the
band TO play louder, and the wo-
mans voice was drowned.
The woman Immediately was re-
moved from the room and handed
owe to the police. Her name was
not learned and close inquiries are
a card of admission.
Among those presented to tho
King and Queen were Miss Esther
Cleveland, of Princeton, \. j..
daughter of the late Grover Cleve-
land; Ralph Page, son of the Ameri-
can ambassadors; Mrs. Ralph rage
and Mrs. Edward Bell. wife Of the
second secretary Of the American
embassy.
The was brief and the as
scmblagc had little knowledge Of
what was transporting. Whether the
woman was an invited guest who
sympathized with the s]uffragette
movement or an intruder who gained
admission by forged card is not
known.
The police had knowledge Of a
conspiracy to approach the royal
presence, and every guest and every
carriage arriving at buckingham
Palace tonight had been subjected
to close inspection by detectives, "a
unique p~recaution.' and one that
caused considerable delay and not a
little Indignation or irritation in
court circles.
To-night's incident is calculated to
produce a feeling of still greater eX-
ASPIRATION in the public mind and
renewed demands for strong meas
ures to suppress the suffragette
agitation.

YOU CAN'T A

M~ultitudes of people lose their
appetite. Simply don care for any,

interest to them. They loathe their
breakfast. They may nibble a little
Of this n n little Of that, but they
do not care for it.
Lunch has lost all OF it's charms,
although they try to eat something.
Dinner about the same.
There Is something positively
wrong. of course, but no disease that
a be named. Just out of sorts.
That is all.
1t Is in this kin of n condition
that Feruna acts very beneficially.
After using Peruna, interest in food
is revived. Beginning with a tea
spoonful Of Peruna before each meal
will generally quickly improve the
appetite and help the digestion.
Thousands Of people can testify to
this. Liberated from q slavery that Is
almost unbearable. The slavery Of
having no interest in life. All used

why. Take Peruna before each meal.
Skies will get blue again. Fields will
look green once more and life will
be pleasant. You will feel that you
are good for something n the world
Is a good place to live in. Peruna
will do it. Not rs an artificial slim

appetite in q natural way.
Those who object to liquid medi-
nines cain now obtain Peruna Tablets.

THE MEDIATORS MARK TIME.
Silence of CarTanza Regarded as II
Favorable Omen.

diation waited another day FOR word
from Gen. CarranHa on Constitutions
alist participation at the conferences
here. but no word came. The silence
was regarded as a favorable omen,
Tor 1t was interpreted as meaning
that the COnstitutionalists we're
weighing carefully the advantages Of
mediation.
There were no conferences again
to-day. The American commission
crs stayed at their hotels studying
data which was furnished them by
the Washington government on per-
sons mentioned for the new provis-
i0nal government. The Mexican del
cgates talked among themselves. It
was a rainy, dreary day.
As Viewed by Rebels.
Eel Paso, Texas. June 4.-Gen.
Carranza announced to-day through
his AGENTS here that he would not
make answer to the communication
Of the mediators, nor issue his O
lamation dealing with the formation
Of a new provisional government in
Northern Mexico until he had
reached Saltillo.
At the same time it was
ed that the COnstitutionaliSt COM
mander-in-chief had departed from
way Of Torreon. The delay in the
issuance OF the proclamation is be-
lieved to have been occasioncd by
some phase Of the Niagara Falls con
fcrcnces and by the reported desire
of Carranza formally to establish
himself as Provisional President at
Saltill0.
'Ilamlct with Hamlet left out is
the way many Constituencies
leaders here expressed themselves
regarding the conference at Niagara
Falls. That a plan can be found to
settle interior affairs in Mexico with
out the participation Of the Consti-
.t]uti0nalist government is regarded
by them a impossible.
They point out that the only part
directly interested in Mexico which
has been represented in the forma-
ton Of the Niagara Falls plans has
been that Of Hucrta. This part, de-
fcated by the Constituencies at
every point. is in the thrOes Of dis
solution. and is in no condition to
fulfill any pledges that might be
made. The rebels have declared re-
pca;edly that the sole solution OF the
internal differences of the country
vas the elimination of Huerta and
his party from politics.
The Constituencies emphasize
the fact that they will recognize only
a government established under the
plan of Guadalupe at the triumph of
the revolution. BY this time the
commander-in-chief of the Constitu-
tiOnaliSt party will be Provisional
President Of Mexico, while elections
are being verified and constitutional
order restored.
In a word, the Constituencies
think it would be well for the COM
misSioners to acQuaint themselves
with the facts before committing
themselves to a program which there
is no possibility OF their carrying
out.
