The newspaper man is blamed for
whole lot of things he can't help,
such as using Partially in mentioning

and leaving others out. He simply

not be expected to know the names

aunts and cousins, even if he should
see them get off the train. Tell us

1t is unfortunately true that some

Tommy Tiger,
Noted Indian
Is Dead

Miami Dec. 1.-The death of Tom
my Tiger, the we'll known Seminole
Indian, which occurred at the City
Hospital early Wednesday morning,
has removed one of the most inter
esting characters from the Seminole
group.
Tommy was taken to the hospital
several days ago, suffering from an
internal trouble and his condition was
not considered serious until late Mon
day night when the Indian took a de-
cided turn for the worse. DR.. ]. G..
DuPuis, the attending physician, had
every hope for the recovery Of the pa
tient until it developed that he was
suffering from liver trouble and
brights disease. This ailment devel-
oped from the effects of alcoholism, the
physician believes.
| The story Of Tommie Tigers inter
esting life would be an interesting
one if it could be correctly narrated.
He was not regarded so very highly
by his fellow Indians who have for
many years looked upon him with sus-
picion ever since his punishment at
the hands of the Indians several de.
cades ago when he was charged with
some offense against the members OF
the tribe. He was tried and SEN
fenced to have his ears clipped and
banished away on Big Cyprus
Tiger was regarded as surly and
on a number of occasions became in
volved with the white people. These
loccurances became very near getting

lily shown that they never approved OF
his acts.
That Tommy was more than seventy
years of age is indicated by his con
versation with old settlers here fol
he told frequently stories of General
Harvey and Jeff Higginbotham, who
fought the Indians way back in '57
The Indian said that he was a boy
then but remembered the Indian
fighters WELL
The Indian, it is said, was one oil
the prime movers in the trouble thai
occurred a decade or so ago when the
remains Of Tom Toger Tail, were dug
up from their final resting place, west
of Fort Pierce and taken to Washing

Carranza Reply Stirs Hope in
Hearts of Border Pacifsts
Assembled Here.

A general discussion OF the note from
Carranza was the principal business at the
opening session of the peace conference
under auspices of the American Union
Against Militarism at the New Willard,
yesterday afternoon. DR.. David Starr
Jordan, who with Moorfield Storey and
Amos Pinchot form the American dele
CATION. explained that the conference was
strictly of an unofficial nature and that
no attempt would be made to interfere
with the diplomatic negotiations between
this country and Mexico,
The Mexican delegates are DR. All an
editor and artist of Mexico City. Luis
Manuel Rojas, and Modesto C. ROLAND.
Mr.. Storey was chosen chairman. At
yesterdays discussion Lincoln Steffens
was an invited participant,
While none of the delegates would give
a statement as to what conclusions were
reached. it was learned that those pres
ent were well satisfied with the tone of
the latest note from Mexico and were
of the opinion that as a result the ten.
sion between the two governments Is less
strained.
,, Prof. Leo. S. Rowe, of the University of
Pennsylvania, and DR.. J. w. Slaughter,
OF Philadelphia, have been invited to ap-
pear before the commission. Should they
accept. a public hearing will be held the
latter part of this week. All other meet
ings are private.
At the close of the conference Mr..
Jordan said:
I'VE are all agreed that the conference
should remain distinctly q civilian affair
We are in existence primarily from the
conviction that good will between the
people of Mexico and the people of the
United States is something which can't
be left to official action alone. This
consciousness is growing all over the
world both Mexico and the Uniteo
States have it, or at any rate, certain
| groups have 1t. So get 1t clear: this is
not a pretentious effort to butt in where
the diplomats alone may tread; It is an
attempt to find out what responsibilities
we've got In this situation as private
citizens and to meet those responsible

SENATE CONTROL
sought TBY e. O.P.
Republicans Need Nine More
Seats to Rule-HaVe Twelve
Fighting Chances.

Lines are being drawn for a violent
struggle for control Of the Senate at the
fall election. Republican campaign lead
ers are preparing a vigorous drive against
the Democratic majority in the Senate.
but careful canvass by Democratic poll
ticians in each State led to statements
yesterday that nothing short OF a politi-
cal miracle could unseat the Democratic
domination of the Upper House.
These are thirty-four Senators to be
elected or reelected this fall In two
States. Indiana and Maine, due to va
cancies caused by deaths, there will be
double contests. Close survey of the
Senatorial situation in the different States
reveals that the Republicans have fight-
ing chances to win twelve seats now oC-
cupied by Democrats
The Democratic aJority in the Senate
now is sixteen. so that in order to OBJ
tain control OF the body. the Republicans
must win nine OF the twelve fighting
changes. To offset further the possibility
of change of control, ths Democrats
have fighting chances-though very slim
to win four seats now held by Republic
ans.
The twelve States where the Republic
ans have a chance to gain are Indiana,
West Virginia. Maine, Nebraska, Mary
land. Tennessee, New Jersey. Montana.
Nevada, Ohio, and Missouri. The four
States where the Democrats have bare
chance to gain are North Dakota, Cali

Acid Stomachs
Are Dangerosu
Nine-tenths of All Stomach Trouble
Due TO Acidity, Says New York
Physician.

A well-known New York physician
who has made special study of stom-
aCh and intestinal diseases recently
made the startling tatement that
many diseases of the vital organs are
directly traceabIe to excessive stomach
acidity, commonly termed sour stomach
or heartburn. which not only irritates
and inflames the delicate lining of the
stomach. but may often cause gastritis
and dangerous stomach ulcers
Neglect, he says, easily leads to
chronic super acidity, commonly mis-
taken for indigestion, and is the prin-
Cipal cause for the indiscriminate swal-
digestive aids which bring only tenn
porsry and false relief.
In an acid condition of the stomach
no artificial digestants whatever should
be employed, as these are likely to
merely pass the sour, burning acid on
trouble there. Instead, he recommends
tire use of some simple, harmless and
inexpensive antacid such as a teaspoon-
full of bisurated magnesia, taken with
a little hot or cold water right after
meals or whenever distress is felt
This simple remedy in just a few
seconds from it's entering the stomach
neutralizes or sweetens all its sour acid
contents, Dissolve the dangerous acid
ity and there will be no need for medi-
cine. as all symptoms OF indigestion
will promptly cease. Sufferers from
acidity, sour stomach or indigestion
should get few ounces of the pure
bisurated magnesia from their druggist
and give this treatment trial In
view, however, of the many varieties
of magnesia used for various purposes,
stomach sufferers should be careful to
get 1t only in the bisurated form (either
powder or tablets) and in a sealed
package to insure Its purity-Adv.

NO CHANGE IN POLICY
AT GIRLS SEMINARY

There will be no change in the mana ge-
ment of the National Park Seminary,
ma ajority Of the stock Of which has been
purchased by a wealthy resident of Penn
sylvania for 1900 600. This announcement
was made last night by John Irving Cas-
sedy, founder OF the institution, who
said:
Il gave a gentleman from Pennsyl-
vana an option on my stock In National
Park Seminary. He has notified me that
he intends to exercise the option. He is
not school man and the present admin
istration will remain in executive con-
troll OF he school. This change in the
ownership of stock will in no wise change
the school except that the purchaser,
who is a wealthy man interested in edu-
cation, will eXpend a large amount Of
money In providing better equipment"
Since its establishment by Mr.. Cassidy
twenty years ago, National Park Sem
mary has grown into one OF the most e1-
