 fore 1t Is Shot.
 White Pigeon, Mich.-Jacob StickeFs pct" wildcat is dead, much to the sorrow of Stickel. but to the joy of his neighbors. Before the cat died or, rather, was killed. considerable excite ment prevailed, and not few of the residents locked themselves in their homes to escape the fury of the anil nal.
 The trouble started when Stickers pet" escaped from its cage. The first thing the animal did on getting free was to quickly put to death two cats in the neighborhood. The shrieks of the tame cats as they were attacked by the wildcat struck terror in the hearts of the many women and ch1l- dren and brought out the men of the neighborhood with guns and other weapons, and the hunt for the animal began.
 After some hours it was located un- der the barn. Efforts were made to drive it back to its cage without suc- cess. Finally the animal was shot by Horace Reynolds.

SAYS HE CAN CURE
 LOVE BY NEW SERUM
London Doctor Says Ii Is Worse
 Than Most of the Vices.

London. = Love. passionate consum- ing love. which tortures and disables its victims, is curable by segregation and new serum. This is the discov- cry of Dr. Maurice de Fleury. the fa- nous "brainstorm" specialist.
 Dr. de Fleury declares that to be ill love. whether passionately or platon- ically, is d form of mental poisoning comparable to physical intoxicaion. By means of delicate electrical tnstru' ments. which record every infinitesi- mal movement of the nervous system" " Dr. de Fleury said. he has obtained charts of the condition of sufferers from this "passional intoxication" and found how to treat 1t.
 He puts love in the fifth category of enslaving poisons. which he arranges according to severity as follows:
 First, alcohol; second. opium and hasheesh; third, morphine, cocaine and ether; fourth, tobacco; fifth. love.
 In the course of his experiments Dr. de Fleury traced the curve of love fe- yer as clearly as that of typhoid may be traced and charted in its phases. He prescribes graduated isolation and a wonderful serum. which he does not describe.
 He tells of one typical case of bad man who wished to be cured. but re- sisted treatment, just as the typical morphinomaniac does. He wept and implored and reproached the physician. who was convinced that the man would commit suicide if the treatment were abandoned. He dosed his patient with intermittent separations from his lady love. increasing the intervals Of segregation as the man grew stronger. After five weeks the man became calm. and at the end of two months he was completely cured.

 Washington.-The office of markets of the department of agriculture has made an investigation of the irregu- larities iD prices paid for cotton from the time 1t is harvested until it reach es New York. The investigators re- ported that in some sections of the cotton belt the farmers are cheated out of from $1 to $12.5O bale by the middlemen and the carriers. by sys- tem of averages.
 "The cotton crop of Oklahoma for 1912" says the report. contained about 19,0OO bales of strict good mid ding cotton on which the New York differences would entitle somebody to a total of over $2O.O00 in premiums above the prices of good middling. No one in that state who was interviewed admitted having received cent of this premium.
 "The investigation showed that in the case of strict middling cotton in the same local market, the difference in price for bales of this grade would vary from $2 to $7.25. In the case of low middling cotton in seven markets. the price variation on the same day was from $2.20 to $125O bale. In the case of low middling cotton the variation ran from $2.50 to s per hale"

SENATOR TANNER GIVES
 GEOGRAPHY LESSON

Another Eastern wholesale house --J. w. Pepper & Son, of Philadel- phia, manufacturers, importers and wholesale dealers in musical instru-. ments and music--has received a first lesson in the geography and his tory of Alaska at the hands of Sen ator J. M. Tanner, of Skagway. Sen ator Tanner recently sent an order to this Philadelphia house for some band instruments. He received a re- ply in which occurred this state ment:
 We have your order of the 18th, and, while thanking you for the same, we regret to state that we do not make c. o. D. shipments into Canada owing to customs regula- tions. In fact, cash in advance is our only method of doing business with Canadian orders"
 Replying to the letter Senator Tan ner said:
 q note that your house was es- tablished in 1876 within the sound of Liberty Bell. When will the peo- ple of the East learn that Alaska was purchased by the United States from Russia and taken possession of Oc- tober IS, 1867, and that it has been a part of the United States ever since, though scarcely recognized as American territory until the incom- ing of the present administration?
 T refer you to the fact that the United States has just appropriated $35,O0O,OO0 to build railroads in Alas ka, and Uncle Sam is not appro- priating money to build railroads in Canada. I am sending you map of Alaska also to verify my statement that Alaska is in the United States and not in Canada. I suggest that you endeavor to have the school chil- dren of your city instructed-and sug- gest that school geographies should be introduced in your public schools containing a map of Alaska on the fly leaf, so that it will be the first thing to attract their attention.
 For further information, we have more than thirty steamships month arriving from Seattle, Portland and San Francisco throughout the year and those cities, too, are in the Unit ed States.
 We raise the finest vegetables and children in the world here in Alaska, and we teach the children that the Declaration of Independence was signed in your city of Philadelphia.
 Further, nearly every city in Alas ka has band, and if you will attend the San Francisco fair next year you will have a chance to hear the J. H. S. (Juneau High SchooD band, of Juneau, Alaska, play the national air and it will be the Star Spangled Banner!'"

 CHIHUAHUA CITY, Mexico, April 21.-General Carranza and General Villa met here today for the first time in four years and both leaders of the constitutional forces announ- ced that the war against General Huerta would be continued in spite of the present difficulty between Provisional President Huerta and the American government and that the rebel army would proceed south at once and hoped to capture the cap ital city in few weeks.
 Have Army of 25,000 Men.
 The rebel army now consists of 25,OO0 men, who have been fully armed during the period that arms were allowed to be imported from the United States and the army have the best guns available, besides more than fifty machine guns and light artillery purchased in the United States and the large number of guns captured during the past years fighting with the federals.
 Short of Ammunition.
 The greatest fear of the rebels is that with the closing of imports in to Mexico from the United States that the supply of ammunition will soon be exhausted, but as Huerta must suffer in the same manner they ex- pect it will even matters, besides the rebel leaders hope to make deal with the American troops for aid against Huerta and for recognition.

 NOTRE DAME, Ind, April 21.-A dozen Mexican students at the local college here were taken from the college building yesterday and thrown into the river by the college students, who wished to show their disapproV- al of the Mexicans and the meth ods of the present provisional gov ernment in dealing with the United States. Several of the Mexican lads were taken from the river almost drowned, and the students refused 10 allow them to land until almost exhausted. when cooler heads and the arrival of several members of the faculty forced the release of the Mex jeans, who are now quartered in the administration building under strong guard of the faculty and several po- lice from the town. They will be escorted to the Canadian border when hostilities break out, as the college authorities realize that they will be unable to protect the Mexican stu dents from the assaults of the Schol- ars.
