Catching Cold.

Colds are due to a neglected skin
and lack of ventilation in the sleeping
room. People who take a cool sponge
bath every morning before breakfast
seldom take cold. When you do take
cold get rid Of it as quickly as possible.
This is best accomplished by taking

EMPEROR
 LAUDS DEAD RULER
 OF DUAL MONARCHY

LONDON, Nov. 2S. - The German emperor has sent a message of sym pathy to Emperor Charles of Austria on the death of Emperor Francis Jo- seph, whose government, says Elm peror William, Twill live in the his tory of the monarchy as a period of blessing"
 The message is further quoted in a Reuter- dispatch from Berlin, by way of Amsterdam, as follows:
 "We of the younger generation were accustomed to see in his venerable figure examples of the finest virtue of rulers and truly kingly devotion to duty. The German empire loses in him a loyal ally. I personally lose a paternal and highly honored friend
 Gods inscrutable will has called him away in the middle of the greatest world war and has not permitted him to see the result of the struggle and the return of peace. May God give him eternal rest and to you strength to bear the burden which falls upon you at this grave time"
 Emperor Charles replied:
 q thank you for the sympathy which you, dear friend, have shown and for the genuine friendship which you man ifested toward the dead emperor, who held you in such high esteem. As your and his loyalty to the alliance stood firm as a rock in this world war, SO shall it remain for us."

NEW EMPRESS IS AN
 INTERESTING WOMAN

VIENNA, Nov. 22, via London, Nov 23.-With the advent of the new Elm. press Zita, curiosity naturally will bt aroused as to her personality and ac- complishments. From her early days she has been studious and is an ac- complished musician and well versed in literature, history and philosophy She also is fond of society and is a graceful dancer.
 Empress Zita was born in the villa Reale at Pianore, in the Italian prov ince of Lucca, May g, 1892, the daugh- ter of Duke Robert and Duchess Marie Antoinette of Parma. She is of Bour- bon descent, but rapidly became Vi- ennese, owing to the fact that life in the capital on the Danube interested her exceedingly. Her early training was in the hands of the Marquise Della Rosa. Later she entered a convent at Zangbert, where she advanced rapidly in music.
 After her fathers death the then Princess Zita in 1908 spent some time in the Ryde Abbey, Isle of Wight, where her sister, Princess Adelaide, is a nun. Here among the French sisters who had been compelled to leave France owing to the church re- form law, she studied music, ltera- ture, Latin, history and philosophy.
 Princess Zita made the acquaint- ance of Archduke Charles Francis at Frazenbad, Bohemia, in the spring of 1909.
 On June IA, 1911, the engagement of the princess and the archduke was announced and on October 21, of the same year they were married, neither expecting that ultimately they would ascend the Austro-Hungarian throne. Their first child was born November 20, 1912, and was named Francis Jo- seph Otto. He is now heir apparent to the Austrian throne. The Emperor Francis Joseph was very fond of this boy.
 The other children of the couple are the Archduchess Adelaide, born Janu- ary 8, 1914; Archduke Robert Charles Louis, born February 8, 1915, and Archduke Felix Frederick August, born May S1, 1916, the date on which his father was a victor in the battles at Asiero and Asiago in Italy.

ARMY MANEUVERS
 WILL END TODAY

BROWNSVILLE, Texas, Nov. 23.- Half of the defending white" army was theoretically captured today by the invading "browns" near Olmito, eight miles northwest of Brownsville, according to reports of the army ma neuvers received at Fort Brown. Gen eral E. H. Lewis, commanding the whites" it was stated, split his army in half, for some unknown reason, sending one part of it to Olmito, which was evacuated yesterday by the browns" The invaders, closing in on this force from two directions, cut it off and captured" it.
 The maneuvers will end late tomor- row, with an expected attack on the browns" now entrenched four or five miles west of Brownsville. Saturday the troops will be reviewed by com manding officers here, and Sunday they will be given a holiday in Brownsville.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
 GRIEF-STRICKEN OVER
 DEATH OF AGED RULER

VIENNA, Nov. 22., Via London, Nov. 29-(DELAYEDl-A Ieaden sky, wet streets, mourning flags, with the black beating against damp walls, the mournful tolling of bells made Vienna today veritable city of grief. Faces everywhere show that the death of the nations emperor is a personal bereavement to most of the people.
 "Our emperor" does not yet refer to the young man who ascended the throne last night. It is still meant for the old man who for nearly 70 years presided over the dual mon archy, the ten races of which gave him their love and devotion.
 Emperor Francis Joseph was the foundation upon which the dual monarchy rested. This gives to the death of the old emperor and the ac- cession of new a peculiar significance. It is not case in which a racial unit accepts automatically a new ruler be- cause natures course made that i'm perative, but an event in which 10 different races are to agree among themselves to continue under a sovereign who is theirs in common.
 Thus today it was not so much that one emperor had died, but that a new monarch had taken the throne.
 While in Budapest last night there were shouts of "Long Live the King, the Viennese still occupy themselves with the passing of the old man, who was their co-citizen for so many years and to whom they owed allegiance. The emperor had come to be regarded as an institution predestined to live forever and when the hour came to prove that there is nothing on earth eternal, it found the minds of the people wholly unprepared.
 Sehoenbrunn palace lies in a wide park expanse, with a black flag standing out in the wind and back ground of leafless trees adding to the sombre appearance. From it's many doors issue men in black clothing and high hats; others come necessarily in automobiles, palace employees in livery and government messengers hurry in and out; the sentinels look graver than ever.
 The Associated Press correspondent spent the mid-hour in the foreign office building last night.
 The long, half lighted corridors re- sounded sOftened footballs. Officials went about with grief written on their faces, speaking in whispers, through which broke, nevertheless, the sub dued excitement. Not since 1885 had an Austro-Hungarian monarch died.

.CONFESSES VOTING
 EARLY AND OFTEN

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Nov. 23.-Af- fidavits from four men swearing that they voted fraudulently in the election of November 2, and that to their knowledge others of their acquaint- ance did likewise, were in the hands of Francis M. Wilson, United States district attorney, here tonight.
 The affidavits were based on al- legged confessions of men who declared themselves members of a gang who fraudulently registered and voted in different precincts in the north end of the city. One man, in his alleged confession, swore that he voted 37 times and that "he knew of 40 more men who voted as many times and in as many places as I did"

DEMAND FOR COPPER GROWS

L. L. Winkelman and company of New York-The demand for copper is now the largest in the history of the trade. Sales for immediate delivery have been made at SO1s cents pound. The situation has become so crude that producers have made it known that prices are subject to change without notice. The buying of the metal by domestic consumers has reached un- precedented proportions. Contracts taken on Monday of this week by cop per interests in this city reached the largest total in years. In all it is es- timated that about 75,000,O0O pounds were purchased by consumers in this country, and in addition there were foreign sales, bringing the total close to 100,OO0,00O pounds for the day. Equally as large orders are pending and with more settled conditions, higher price levels are inevitable. Sev- eral of the larger dealers are out of the market for the first quarter of 1917 and are holding back on offered business for the second three months.
 In the heavy buying of mining stocks now in evidence the coppers are the outstanding feature. This is readi- ly explained by the principal produc- ing copper companies having accumu- lated financial assets sufficient to en- able them to pay dividends at high rates of interest for from two to three years ahead without producing another pound of copper during this period; and that the outlook for increased bus mess in the future was never better than today, there being no immediate peace in sight among the European belligerents; and the further fact that Europe's demand for copper will have only fairly started when the war ends, the reconstruction period covering a far greater extent than the destruc- tion period.-Denver Mining Record.

MASKED BANDITS ROB EXPRESS GAR
 OF MOVING TRAIN

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-Two masked men held up the messenger on an ex- press car of the Chicago and North western railroad train No. sos after it left Harrington, H., tonight, and in the 3O-minutes run to Chicago, rif1ed the safe of cash estimated at 5000, selected what valuables they wanted from the packages and drop ped of the train when it reached Clybourne Junction, a switching stop in the heart of this city.
 The train crew found the messenger W. E. Cater, strapped to his chair, gagged and half-conscious. The hold ups had strewn the floor of the car with checks and securities and after getting all negotiable securities es- capped without leaving any apparent trail.
 Cater was half the length of the car from his sawed-of shotgun and put up his hands. He was bound to the chair and the search for the valuables began. The robbers, secure for 30 minutes, worked leisurely but thoroughly. A number of gold watches were stuffed into the pockets of one.
 There were between 75 and 100 packages of valuables in the safe and all were examined carefully. Officials of the express company said it was to determine how much had been taken until all had been checked up.

 ID USE OF AEROPLANES

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Not one of the 45 field artillery batteries and the 73 forts in the six coast artillery dis tricts of the United States army has an aeroplane, observation balloon or dirigible, according to a report of All man R. Hawley, president of the Aero Club of America, made at the annual meeting of the club here.
 The report suggests that the field and coast artillery needs F aero squadrons, ITO kite balloons and six drigibles. Others who presented re- ports included Rear Admiral Robert E. Peary, Henry A. Wise Wood, How ard E. Coffin and Augustus Post.
 President Hawley and all the other officers were reelected for the ensuing year.
 It was resolved at the meeting to urge upon President Wilson and con- gress the need for supplying the field and coast artillery with air machines; for making aeronautics part of the curriculum at West Point and An napolis; the appropriation of S1,5OO,- O00 for the establishment of aerial coast patrol and the providing of the coast guard service with airplanes.
