BILE AND ,BIlIOuSNESS

Bile is manufactured in the cells of the liver. It assists digestion and prevents putrefaction in the intestines. Bile is necessary to life but excess of bile is poisonous.
 The effects of excessive secretion of bile and failure to eliminate it from the blood, which is also function of the liver, are white-coated or brown-furred tongue, bit- ter taste in the mouth, indigestion, head ache, lack of appetite, constipation and weariness.
 This is condition popularly called biliousness and points directly to the need of something to regulate the liver. For this purpose the claim is made that Pinklets, the new laxative, are greatly superior to old-fashioned liver medicines which over-stimulate the liver and, when their use is stopped, leave the liver more torpid than before. That over-stimula- tion facilitates the liver is as certain as anything known in the science of medi- cine. Pinklets are tiny, sugar-coated pills, dainty to take, easy in action and they do not upset the stomach nor cause gripping. Given a thorough trial they really correct chronic constipation.
 Your druggist sells Pinklets or they will be sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, 25 cents per bottle, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y. Send today for booklet and free sample.

ity that the letter is likely to find it's way into print within the next forty-eight hours. It is said that MT. Whitman's name is not signed to the copy of the letter which is said to be in possession of progressive lead CTS.
 Dictated, Duell Told Colonel.
 MT. Duell informed Colonel Roose- welt, it is said, that the original of the copy he brought to Oyster Bay was dictated by the district attorney about two weeks ago. It is said to have been addressed to Charles H. Ruell, IT,, and the six other incor- porators of the whitman Non-Parti- san league.
 The best information obtainable here, since Roosevelt refuses to dis cuss the matter, is that the colonel has only the word of Duell that the letter was. written by the district at- torney.
 Roosevelt Is Aroused.
 Roosevelt refused to listen to the suggestions, said to have been made by Duell, that he refrain from at tacking. the district attorney for mak- ing public his anti-Barnes pronounce ncent at the eleventh hour. The colonel, it is said, sent word through MT. Duell, who, so the story goes, represented himself as MT. Whitman's envoy, that ne would refuse to renter into any deal or understanding of any kind'

Duell, who was received as a representative of MT. Whitman.
 Conference With Robinson.
 Following the publication in New York of the report of the existence of the letter the authorship of which has been disclaimed by the district at torney, the coloneps cousin, Theodore Douglas Robinson, progressive state chairman, came to Sagamore Hill tonight for a conference with Roose- velt He was accompanied by his hrother-in-law, Joseph w. Alsop, Con- necticut state chairman.
 Refuses to Comment.
 Colonel Roosevelt refused to com ment on the report from Washington that he would appear before the sen- ate committee on foreign affairs in connection with the pending Colom- bian treaty It is known, however, that the colonel is willing to go be- fore the senate committee at any time that his presence may be desired.
 It is the belief of the coloners friends that he will not be given an opportunity to get his story of the acquisition of the canal zone before the senate committee until after con- gress reconvenes in December.

 PLEASfS COLONEL
Roosevelt and Robinson Discuss
 Formers Visit to Conncc.icut.

Oyster Bay, N. r., July 14.-Charles s. Whitman was not officially desig- mated yesterday as a member of the exclusive organization known as the Ananias club. In fact Colonel Roose- welt refused to discuss the letter the district attorney is alleged to have written repudiating William Barnes, Jr., the republican state chairman, or give any information concerning the contents of the copy of the communi- cation said to have been submitted to him by Charles H. Duell, Jr., the young progressive leader, who has been endeavoring to gain the colonels indorsement of Whitman's candidacy for governor.
 Far From Disappointed.
 When the subject was called to the Colonel's attention he seemed far from displeased that the secret had leaked out. He added that he had no knowledge of how the story of the mysterious letter, which Mr. Whitman insisted he did not write, reached the newspapers. The Colonel did not deny however, that a copy of the letter had been submitted to him by MT. Duell.
 It was learned from a high author

tory assertions which has set him up in the golden glow of romance. Frank Stockton, the novelist dissents violently from these charming DOT trayals. He admits Lafitte with reluc- tance into his Buccaneers and Pirates of Our Coasts saying he was "so little of pirate that it may be doubted whether or not he deserves a place in these stories of American pirates"
 Having got in against the authors wishes and Judgment Lafitte is treated with scant consideration. Any self respecting pirate would be mortified to be accused of knowing no more about ship than about making a sonnet. Lafitte, says MT. Stockton, never committed an actual act of piracy in his life. The reported claim of Lafitte that he was a commander of privateers commissioned to hurt the British trade is presented. Mir. Stock ton is so strongly opposed to the terror of the gulf as a bona f1de pirate that he appears to go as far beyond the mark of strict accuracy as do the ad- n:irers of Laf1tte
 Last of Lafitte.
 Lafitte seems to have been a re- sourceful man, and not lacking in humor. When the governor of Louisiana offered a reward of $500 for his head the pirate chief re- sponded by offering $5,oo0 for Clai- borne's head. This upon authority of E. G. Littlejohn, who had an article f, of Co ooI,x the Elite Magazine in 1907. The Red- house is said to have been the scene of many princely entertainments.
 Prizes were brought in while, these events were in progress ana doubloons were "as plentiful as bis- cults" The capture of an American boat in Matagorda Bay in 1920 proved the undoing of the leader. The government sent a naval officer to Lafitte with message to get out for good. The envoy was lavishly enter tained, but would not be dissuaded from his purpose. So Lafitte. after showering gold upon his followers. sailed away, and is said to have died in Yucatan in 1926.
 A history of Louisiana relates that the Lafittes, Jean and Pierre, were tried at New Orleans in connection with their depredations, and that the United States district attorney re- signed to defend them. He was afraid to go after his fee when he had won the case, so sent his associate in the defense. The latter returned with $4O,000 and glowing accounts of the 3aratarians hospitality. 1t was shame, he asserted, to "call honest and polished gentlemen. pirates"
 Reference in this sketch is made to Gen. Jackson's nasty denunciation of the men he afterward praised as hrave soldiers Jackson wrote in his "hellish banditti' proclamation: Confident that any attempt to in- wade our soil will be repelled, the un- lersigned calls not upon pirates and robbers to join him in the glorious cause"

and who for many years has been one of the ex-president's most intimate friends, was caller yesterday at Sagamore Hill. The colonel discussed 'lhe monkey diet, jungle fever and the River of Doubt" with Father Cur ran.
 Discuss Connecticut Visit.
 Robinson on leaving Sagamore Hill at 10:3O o'clock, said that he and MT. Hlsop had discussed the coloners visit to Connecticut on August IS, when he will speak in Hartford.
 ''we went over the New York situa- ton briefly" Robinson added, but there is no change in the situation"
 Robinson said that he knew nothing of the alleged Whitman letter other than what he had read in the news papers. He said he did not discuss the matter with the colonel.

AvIATORs MORE CONFIDENT.
Boehm's Record Foundation for Belief
 Porte Will Fly Over Ocean.

New York, July 14.-The record made on Saturday last by Reinhold Roehm at Johannisthal when he re- mained in the air for twenty-four hours and twelve minutes and flew a distance of 1850 miles, has caused members of the Aero club to feel more confident than ever that Lieu tenant Porte will accomplish his pro- posed Atlantic flight in the airboat America. Boehm used an ordinary. biplane in his flight and the fact that it was not equipped for an endurance test is an indication, according to Henry Woodhouse, of the Aero club, that the America, with her special equipment, will be able to carry Lieutenant Porte to the Azores with out mishap.
 The route to be followed by Lieu tenant Porte to the Azores. is LAO miles, or some 210 miles less than the distance covered by Boehm.

GENERAL DAM BILL
 TO BE CONSIDERED

Conscrvationists in Congress Await Results of Conference to Be Held
 at White House This Evening.
 Washington. July 14.-Conserva- tionists in congress looked with inter- est today to the conference which had been arranged to be held at the White House tonight, when efforts are to be made to smooth out difficulties over pending conservation legislation. President Wilson, members of the cabinet and members of the house planned to consider the pending Adamson general dam bill.
 The bill is designed to promote nav igation on what are now. in the ae- gregate, thousands of miles of shoal streams with possibilities of power development attractive to private cap itai but practically prohibitive to the government if undertaken to promote navigation only.
 The plan is to grant permits for fifty year periods, for private con- struction of dams and locks so as to provide heads of water for genera tion of power and hydro-electricity for power purposes for communities needing light, fuel and power for manufacturing and other purposes.
 Representative-Fer and other op- ponents of the bill in its present shape, with whom Secretary Lane is understood to be aligned, say the bill might leave loophole for grants of perpetual rights to private capi- tai.

Inflated Theatrical vn-es.

1.-THE show business proper-namely,
the business of securing and producing
plays for the entertainment of the
theater going public-is a business of
false and inflated values" writes a
prominent theatrical manager in the
American Magazine. Regulations,
receipts. salaries. expenditures. costs
Of production, losses on failure and so
on through the list-everything is in
fated.
1.-THE 100000 production probably
cost 100000. out of which. in case Of
failure. there was a salvage Of $4,000.
The $4,000 production can easily be
duplicated for $4,000. and many a
dramatic production has been made for
from $4,000 to $4,000 that in the pub
lished figures represented an outlay Of
$4,000 before the curtain rose"

The Maryland Legislature starts or its
long grind this week. with the hope
rather stronger than is!usnally the case
that some good legislation under consid-
Grafton will be accomplished, as the po-
litieal spirit of the times is decidedly of a
progressive nature, and should have its
impress upon our State law makers, who
in times gone have too often been OBJ
structed, as far as the accomplishment OF
anything of real moment was concerned,
by the so.called conservativeness of those
in control. who chung tenaciously to the
old order of things.
But this has gradually given way in
the face of a public sentiment that has
revolutionized the political aspect, and
demands legislation in keeping with the
changed conditions that the march OF
progress has brought about in the bus
mess and political world.

It seems to be a pretty general impress
sion that an attempt is to be made during
the present Legislature TO unload the old
Pennsylvania railroad bridge at Perry
vile on the State, aud let few polite
ians profit by the deal, which if put
through, will be about the biggest piece
of political jobbery ever pulled off on
the people of the State.
The resolutions passed at the citizens
meeting in Elkton have placed the Cecil
delegation under obligation to oppose
this scheme if il is attempted.
In place of the bridge being saddled
upon the State and the taxpayers made
to finance the scheme, why not compel
the railroad 10 maintain it as free
bridge. The old charter called for free
transportation across the railroad bridge
between Perryville and Havre de Grace,
but since the new bridge has been built
the travelling public is held MP and made
to pay for crossing either of them.
The public takes its choice as to which
bridge it uses, but it pays just the same.
whether it walks or rides. and the rail-
road gets ont from under the stopping Of
all trains as well as the providing of free
transportation.

LARGEST KNOWN ICE CAVE.
Wonders of the Frozen Grotto In the
pachstein Mountains.

Wonders of the Frozen Grotto In the
Dachstein Mountains.
A few years ago some members of
the Austrian Sociological society dis
covered in the Dachstein mountains
some caverns which are among the
largest in Europe. One Of these grot-
toes, the longitudinal axis Of which is
fully $500 feet long, moreover turned
out to offer additional interest by its
truly enormous ice masses and was
found to be the largest known ice cave
in the world
Though scorching sun may be
burning outside on the bare mountain
rock, there is always an icy wind
blowing through this underworld,
freezing everything within its reach.
Only sometimes, when the outside
temperature ranges between 80 and
Al degrees O. ard a comparatively
warm rain penetrates through the fis-
sures of the rock, entering right into
the cavern. will there be a temporary
calm and distinct melting Of the ice.
The Dachstein ice cave comprises
several domes filed with Ice, which
communicate with one another through
number of frozen galleries. An ice
crevice SO feet deep and 116 feet in
width traverses the floor Of the cavern
1856 feet from the entrance. Gigantic
ice pillars were found to tower on
both edges of this chasm, in the depth
Of which there unfolds fairy-like ice
scenery. Beyond the abyss the cavern
widens out into mighty dome Urls
tan dome. as it is called, where a
plain ice sheet reaches from one wall
to the other. carrying ice stalagmites
