THE MARVELLOUS CURES made
 by these specialists have attracted the
 attention of thousands of people in all
 walks of life. and given to the sick
 and suffering new life and hope. That
 the deaf are made to hear, the blind
 to see, the lame to walk; that the un-
 slightly tumor is made to waste away,
 and the foul cancer cleansed and dried
 up simply by the application of these
 treatm ents, without drugs or operations
 seems beyond belief; but such are the
 claims made by those who have been
 treated by them, and you are given the
 chance to test for yourself whether
 such things are true.
 THEY WILL PERFORM CURES
 that will astonish the skeptical. set the
 serious to thinking,S and aconvince the doubtful that their power Is unques- toned. No matter what the disease, how bad, how long standing or how hopeless the case. 1t may be amenable to cure; and if curable at all this won I derfully endowed man will cure and
 THE AFFLICTED ONES WILL ARISE AND WALK.
 Don't say 1t cant be done, but go l and see it done. Remember you are living in a world of wonders and in an age of amazing advancement He who first condemns without careful l and comprehensive consideration and inquiry is certainly giving expression to preconceived prejudice. In the l light of facts such nasty opinions are without weight. wisdom or common l sense.
 Marvellous as their work may ap- | pear, they are simply doing that which 1 history and the teachings of science | show has and can be done, and that l which well informed men know can | be done, and is being done in this age. l Their work has been successful, most ! magnificently successful.

 No Trouble at Union Works.
 A report was prevalent about the streets this morning that some of the molders in the employ of the Union Manufacturing company had struck for an increase in wages. President A. F. Corbin was interviewed at tho office and he f1a*ly denied the rumor
 One story concerning the strike at the New Britain Machine company is to the effect that the men who went out yesterday are angry because the members went on a strike today. It is said that the first strikers thought their demands were going to be met, until the plumbers walked out and broke up the arrangements.
 It is said in some quarters that of the 600 men employed at his con- cern fully half of them are out.
 The company officials are credited with making the statement that they do not think the men are underpaid as the average pay of the entire work ing force averages thirty-one cents an hour.
 This morning ten police officers in plain clothes were sent to the factory prepared for eventualities but there was no disturbance and this noon there were but two bluecoats on duty

R. WATCH0RN
TELLS Of WAR
INFLUENCE
ENGLAND BELIEVES PEACE WILL
HAVE COME BY JULY. THE CON-
PLANTS OF LABOR ARE JUST.
SCHOOLS FOR HOSPITALS.

Robert Watchorn, United States
commissioner of immigration under
president Roosevelt's administration
and who is now president of the Samo-
set Oil Company, has recently return
ed from a visit to England. The Samo-
set is half-million dollar company
which has recently been organized,
and entered the Oklahoma oil fields.
In speaking of the outlook for the oil
business, Mr.. WatchOrn said When
the government releases the tankers
which it has commandeered and when
over production ceases, the market
will become normal again. In my
opinion the Cushing flood has been an
advantage to the situation. That ad-
vantage comes in the extension that
the flood of oil has given to the mar
ket People are now using oil that
will be loath to go back to coal, and
the market will have permanent eX-
tension that will be of great value
to the industry. California extended
its market by periodical floods of oil
and the same results will be worked
in Oklahoma learned while abroad
that the estimate placed upon the
number of horses that will be slain
during the European war is one and
one-half millions 1t will require five
or six years to replace these animals,
much larger percentage of motor
vehicles use"

BOMBARDMENT
Of MATAMOROS
BEGAN TODAY
SHELLS FROM A THREE INCH
FIELD PIECE AND ANOTHER
GUN EXPLODING NEAR THE
CARRANZA TRENCHES.

Brownsville, Tex, April 13.-Villa's S
bombardment of Matamoros began
before noon today. Shells from a
three-inch field piece and later from
another gun exploded near the Car
rama trenches and several over Mat
amoros. One of the shells exploded
near the American consulate.
A sortie of about 1900 Carranzis-
tas started the bombardment. They
had started toward Las Rucias, the
Villa headquarters.
Rifle bullets fell thickly in Browns
vile suburb west of the city during
the sharp fighting caused by the sor.
tie, which appeared to be an effort
to capture the Villa cannon. The
Villa gunners were accurate and,
from the direction from which the
shells came, it appeared that none
would cross the border.

Talks of Peace

Mr.. Watshorn is of Scottish descent
of the allies in the European war. He
believes that in the end the United
that it would require all the power
that these nations can bring to bear,
to conquer Germany. England he says
is of the opinion that the war will
be ended by July of this year. When
asked concerning the labor situation in
the United Kingdom, Mr. Watchorn
said, "In America we are inclined to
criticise the British laborers who are
complaining of the wages they receive.
From our point of view it seems like
the English workman should be con.
tented with the privilege of staying
with his work even at a small wage
rather than to be idle or to enter the
army. But, learned that the unrest
is with the highest class of labor. The
English manufacturer has doubled the
price of his products. The cost of
manufacturing has not been advanced
and now he refuses to divide his
enormous profits with the English Ia
borers, and as natural consequence
there is dissatisfaction among the
class who has intelligence enough to
see that the employer of labor is reap
ing a harvest while he is raking hay
at the same old price. Public senti-
ment with laborers is against resort
ing to strike methods. At this time
when it is necessary that the armies
in the field be supplied from the out
put of the factories, striker would be
looked upon with contempt somewhat
akin to that which attaches to the
deserter from the army. 1t is not fair
to labor either in America or England
to criticise these workmen without
first understanding the conditions that
prompt them to become restive."
From Mr. Watchorn it was learned
that nearly all of the high school
buildings in England are being equip
hped for hospital service and it is ex-
pected that these buildings will be
filed with wounded soldiers from the
spring campaign.

ture by the Russians of almost all
the main chain of mountains, the
battle of the Carpathians, which has
lasted upward of eighty days, is ap-
parently reaching a termination over
one extensive front, and the Russians
are said to be moving at various
points by railways and roads and
along the rivers and streams down
the southern slopes toward the plains
of Hungary.
This movement, if it continues sue
cessfully, will, in the view of the Rus
sian military authorities, compel the
retirement with little or no fighting
of the Austrians and Germans, who
are still north of the Carpathians,
to the east of Uzsok pass and in
eastern Galicia and Bukowina
The battle which has been thus sue
cessfully conducted by the Russians
was, from all accounts, one of the
fiercest of the war, and the manner
in which the Russians overcame the
difficulties of mountain fighting in
midwinter has been the subject of
praise by those who witnessed the
operations or are acquainted with the
country traversed.
The first phase of the battle of
the Woevre also apparently has come
to an end, and interest now centers
on the next move of General Joffro,
fort to compel the Germans to re-
lease their hold on St Mihiel and
that part of the plain of the Woeyre
included in their wedge. The capture
of Les Eparges was. in the opinion
of British military critics, a long
step in the direction desired by the
allies, but they place even more I'M
portance on the advance from Reg
melville toward Thiaucourt in the
southwest, as the latter town is "a
railway center from which the force
at st. Mihiel draws its supplies.
This battle has not as yet proved
the prelude to general offensive
in the west as was expected This
is probably due to the fact that n
stead of moving troops from other
points along the line to assist the
army of the Woevre, the Germans
have brought their reinforcements
from the interior of Germany or
perhaps right from the eastern front,
and consequently the situation re-
mains comparatively quiet on the
western front.
