CRUELT|ES ARE HEAPEO
UPON JEWS OF RUSSIA
By Cars Soldiers, Is Charge
OfMembers OF Race In
America.

New York, April 23.--Five Amer
lean Jewish workingmens organiza-
tions issued joint statement here
to-day branding as false the recent
denial by the Russian official press
bureau, in behalf of the Russian
Government, of charges that Jews
in Russia had been prosecuted dur
ing the war.
The statement asserts that the
facts prove that Russian Jews have
been the victims of cruelty by the
Russian soldiery. and calls upon the
civilized world Ito protest against
the policy of the Russian Govern
ment, which has only one aim in
view--to exterminate the Jewish
race" OF this the Russian people
themselves, it is explained, are not
accused.
The five organizations are the
United Hebrew Trades, Jewish Ma
tional Workers Alliance of Ameri-
ca, Jewish Socialist Labor Party,
Jewish Socialist Federation of
America and the Workmen's Circle,
who represent, they say, 100000
workingmen in the United States.
Thousands of Jewish citizens in
New York have received private let
tiers in which detailed description
of the most cruel deeds of the Rus
sian soldiery were reported" says
the statement, which adds that
facts that have been published in
the newspapers, especially in Rus
sian, Polish and Russian-Jewish
newspapers under the severest
Russian censorship" are alone suf-
flcient to refute the denials of the
Russian Government. AS instances
the statement cites the following:
"Jews who fed from their homes
near the war zone and sought ref
uge in towns outside the pale of set
Element, were expelled by the police
and compelled to return to their
war-stricken places.
'Jewish wounded soldiers who
were brought from the battlefields
to hospitals outside the pale of set
Element had to return to the pale
of settlement as soon as they could
crouch along on crutches. In many
cases they were transported to the
pale of settlement on the third day
after the amputation of one of their
limbs"

Anoidental Inventions.

The ancients believed that there was a certain kind of mineral substance in existence by means of which all the common metals could be turned into gold. This supposed substance was called the philosophers stone, and the alChemiSts of classic times and during tho middle ages spent much time and labor in search of this wonderful sub stance.
 Of course, since nothing of the kind ever existed, 1t was never found, but 1t is worth remembering that some of the most notable inventions were discover ed In this wide search. It was in look ing for the philosophers stone that the German chemist BottiCher, stumbled upon the secret of making the beauti- ful Dresden porcelain. Roger Bacon, in the same way, discovered the com position of gunpowder. Geber found the properties of acids; Van Belmont discovered the nature of gas, and Dr. Glauber found the secret of making the salts which now bear his name.-Co- lumbus Dispatch.

4 New Back for an oId One. How

The back aches at times with a dull, indescribable feeling, making you weary and restless; piercing pains shoot across the region of the kidneys, and again the Joins are so lame that to stoop is agony. No use to rub or apply a plaster to the back if the kidneys are weak. AL askan residents would do well to profit by the following example.
 John l. Conger, prop, printing shop, S45 N. Seventeenth St, sal em, Oregon, says: My back got weak and sore and my kidneys did not act as they should. At times I could hardly 'straighten. Doan's Kidney Pills gave me relief and it took them only a short time to rid me of kidney trouble. I pub licly endorsed them several years ago and am glad to do so again."
