The Blood 10 the Life.

The blood is the life because 1t is the
nutritive fluid. If the blood becomes
very impure, the bones, the muscles and
other parts of the body are impaired
and finally become diseased. Slighter
variations in the quality of the blood,
such as are often brought about by
breathing the bad air Of unventilated
rooms, have equally sure though less
plain Ill effects on the nervous system.
Persons that have any reason to be-
lieve that their blood 10 not pure should
begin to take Hoods Sarsaparilla at
once. This medicine has done more
than any other in cleansing. enrichine
and reyitalizing the blood and giving
strength and tone to all the organs and
functions.
II you want to be entirely satisfied.
Insist on having Hoods. Accept no
substitute.

REFUGEES DIE ~ HUNDREDS.
Great Mortality Among 10000 Whe
EIocked to Urumiah.

New York April 10.-"A fearful rate
Of mortality" among the 10000 refu-
gees crowded into the yards of the
American mission at Uruniah, where
it is said 5000 persons could scarcely
find accommodations is reported here
thru the state department at Washing
ton board Of foreign missions.
So great was the menace. it Is said.
in the communication, that for while
1t is unsafe for anyone to leave the
premises and consequently the bodies
of the dead could not be buried. At
times on an average Of forty refugees
died every day.
The communication which Is copy
of one sent to F. w. Smith, American
consul at Tifis. Persia, in which Robert
NJ Barre, of Urumiah describes in de-
tail the fight, of christians not only
from Urumiah but from all Azerbaijan
provinces after the withdrawal of the
Russian troops. The communication
says:
"Of the thousands who were forced
to remain behind. their villages being
so situated that fight was impossible,
only the future can give US correct
roll of those murdered in cold blood
and with cruel tortures by the Kurds;
and the women and girls carried, OFF
and Of the children lost and the families
separated in the time of this terrible
catastrophe. All who could fed to the
city and found the one shelter that gave
them the best hope Of safety. That was
our American mission property. guard
ed by the American flag"
1T is estimated" the communica-
ton continues, that in all 10000 took
refuge in our mission compounds at
Urumiah, while 5000 more were given
shelter at the French mission. Those
who took refuge with us were un-
harmed while villages were being plum
dered and burned, and while hundreds
of lives were being lost"
The communication then described
how DR.. Packard, missionary physician
at the risk of his life conferred with
the Kurdish chiefs and begged that the
lives of the persons in nearby yfl-
lage, which was being beseiged, might
be given to him.
"He prevailed the communication
says land in the middle Of the night
brought in to the city with him more
than 1000 men, women and children"
The communication points out that
all these refugees have to be fed /;
three tons OF bread daily being needed
to keep them from starvation.
I'VE cannot turn these people out
to starve later, Is we could not turn
them out to be slaughtered" the COM
munication continues.
"Mr La Baree asks that the Red
Cross society be informed Of the plight
OF the christians in Urumiah. He has
asked the board Of foreign missions to
furnish the nilsson with $4,000 for its
immediate needs"

. Livestock Notes.

Kansas has rescinded IT'S decision not
to pay for nonresident owned cattle
destroyed on account Of foot and
mouth disease. This will insure a sup
ply of sappy grass cattle = go on corn
in Illinois next fall. 1t will also re-
lieve the Texas storehouse. Oklahoma
however, refuses to reimburse non
residents and Usage pastures in thai
state may not be filled.
New York is again buying beef
About 1900 were needed for that point
Wednesday. creating a lively market
at 10@15 cents advance In the free
division. Heavy cattle denied that out
let by quarantine could not get it and
this concerned practically, the entire
Illinois delegation. New York took a
lot Of sS.00@S.5O cattle. Signs Of i'm
provement are detected in the beef
market.
Owing to a short crop and heavy in
crease in Pacific coast consumption,
no California lambs will be sent east
this season. Information from San
Francisco is that the entire crop is
being contracted for local consumption
at S5.00@5.5O per head. Harry Levy
have secured over 10000 on that basis,
which is $1.50@2oO per head higher
than a year ago. A 50 trade at Chi
cago in western fat lambs is predicted
A $40 basis for breeding ewes IS not
improbable.
Porcine population in Europe is be-
ing annihilated by war. In Denmark.
Germany, Holland Belgium and even
France breeding stock is disappearing.
Russia, unable to get foreign beef. is
killing hogs to feed its army. When
the war ends. the whole world will
have an opportunity to realize how its
hog droves have been decimated.
All the hog market forecasters are
reveling in discredit. One March rise
of which most Of them were confident
has failed to materialze and prices
have sagged back to close Of the Feb
ruary low point. AT present no inquiry
concerning future course of the mar
ket ELECTS response. Only Packing
town knows. and the oracles Of that
burg are a set of clans.
