Wilfred F. Root Offers Popular Medi

Wilfred F. Root, the popular drug
gist is making an offer that is just like
finding money for he is selling regu-
lar 50-cent bottle of DR.. Howard s eele-
brated specific for the cure of constipa-
ton and dyspepsia at half-price. In adj
dition to this large discount he agrees
to return the money to any purchaser
whom the specific does not cure.
1t is quite unusual to be able to buy
50-cent pieces for a quarter, but that
is what this offer really means, for it
is only recently, through the solieita-
ton of Druggist Wilfred +. Root that
this medicine could be bought for less
than so cents, he urging the proprietors
to allow him to sell it at this reduced
price for little while, agreeing to sell
a certain amount. The result has JUS
tilted his good judgment for the sale
has been something remarkable.

ROOSEVELT TRIP SCENES
 ID BE SHOWN AT LAMARA

The lamara theater is today show ing set of the reels of pictures that were taken by a member of the Theodore Roosevelt party in the Jungles of Africa, the trip he took immediately upon retiring from the presidential office. These pictures are educational and interesting to the last degree. It will be remem- bered that Col Roosevelt's contract with the Smithsonian Institute car ried with it the right to kill but one of each species of unusual wild ami mals encountered This contract was steadily lived up to, in fact in many cases where it was not necessary to kill the animal pictures only were taken of it in its native lair.
 These pictures are among the best ever taken of natural wild life in the jungles of Africa. It is true that many other sorts of pictures of Gen. tral Africa have been taken at diff ferent times but it is conceded that none of them are as good as those taken on the coloners great expedi- tion. It will be remembered also that Kermit Roosevelt, the son of the president was along and distinguish ed himself almost as much as his noted sire in his ability to bag big gume with his trusty rifle.
 The trip took the entire party nearly two years and on returning Col. Roosevelt visited all the capitals ot Europe and interviewed reigning He also delivered some dicta to the powers that be in Europe in his usual style and attend ed also the funeral of the late King Edward VII
 Much interest attaches to the pie lures because of their historical con- nection as well as on account of the wonders of the dark continent that they portray.

CROWDS HEADED
 F0R RIVERSIDE
Return of Summer Herald ed by Joyous Throng Nightly Engaged in Dane ing on Big Floor at Pop ular Amusement Park

l. Dancing at Riverside Sounds well, don't it?
 The big floor at the popular park, \enlarged and polished to an extent that it calls forth ejaculations from the most critical of dancers, is night ly accommodating larger crowds. Saturday night as usual is the big night of the week. The management is making extraordinary preparations for tonight, and the lovers of good music and an exceptional floor will be more than satisfied by trip to Riverside.
 Music? considerable of it yes. Jack Abbott than whom there is no bet ter orchestra leader to be found in the state is yielding the baton. All the latest catchy airs are being waited across the park. and are an incentive to make the most chronic abstainer want to get out on that floor and dance until he, or she is tired out.
 The problem of reaching the park has been solved by the new honest to goodness jitney bus line that operates from the corner of First street and Washington. Big and roomy. they are capable of carrying large crowds, and so far have done rushing business.
 Prof. King is giving private dane ing lessons at the dancing hall every afternoon and evening prior to the crowds reaching there.

SYRACUSE. May 7-Justice Will liam Andrews presiding at the trial of the William Barnes suit for libel against Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, ruled that unless it be shown that MT. Barnes actually knew of and profited by the alleged extravaganza and waste in orders for public print ing, evidence on that subject was in competent.
 The morning session of the court was taken up solely with testimony on the printing situation in Albany.
 The greater part of the afternoon session was given over to arguments regarding the admissibility of the testimony on printing. During the arguments. Justice Andrews remark ed that if MT. Barnes held stock in the J. B. Lyon Printing company, one of the firms that had done work for the state, that did not justify the in ference that he knew whether dis honest bills" were rendered. or dis honest contracts" were being made.
