It will be noticed that the health of a supreme justice is seldom im- paired until he becomes old enough to retire on full salarly. President Taft, in appointing his private secretary, Fred Carpenter of Minnesota, minister to Morocco, thought that a change of color would give him luck, There is cer- tainly a difference between a snow landscape dotted with fair-haired Scandinavians, and an African desert, peopled by the sons and daughters of Othello, the Moor. Congressman Steenerson of lQis state must be given credit for pelling Congress to stand pat against ship subsidy legislation. Recent dispatches from Washington say that the resolution introduced by him, under which the ship sub- sidy scandal is being probe bya House Commitee, makes it com- impos- sible to secure any legislation of this character at the current session. Friends of the measure fear that his activity in this connection may de- fer action on a ship subsidy bill for a good many years to come. Min- nesota generally is anti-subsidy, and if he can stave off this legislation, its people will have special reason to feel kindly toward him.— Litchfield Review. | BY THE WAY I It is a singular fact that ministers should know enough about prize. fighting to manifest such serious disaproval.

FIRE IS FATAL - T0 THIRTY-FIVE Newspaper Building at Montreal Destroyed. RESCUERS ARE HELPLESS Attempt to Enter Burning Structure, but Are Driven Back by a Tremen- dous Wall of Flames—Composing Room Employes and Bindery Girls Make Up the Majority of Those Who Perished. Montreal, June 14.—The Herald building was destroyed by fire. It is reported thirty-five persons are dead in the ruins. The loss on the building is $200.000. Many are said to have been carried to death by a water tank which crashed through the building when the fire started. Bindery girls and linotype men fell through the huge gap in the floors of the building and were quickly buried under machinery and timbers. Crowds assembled outside the burn- ing building could hear the shouts of the dying inside, while the flames were slowly traveling toward them, but practically nothing could be done to save them. Members of the editorial department escaped uninjured, the dead and dy- ing being confined mostly to employes of the bindery and composing room. The flames first were confined to the upper floors of the building, but although all the available fire ap- paratus turned out it was impossible to control the fire, which was fanned by a strong wind. Inspector McMahon of the police force called upon those around him to organize a rescue party, but a tre- mendous wall of flames suddenly ris- ing from the basement made it im- possible to enter the building. «It cured me,” or ‘It saved the life ot my child”, are the express- ions you hear every day about Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. This is true the world-over where this valuable remedy has been introduced. No other medicine in use for diarrhoea or bowel complaints has received such general approval. The se- cret of the success of Chamber- lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is that it cures. Sold by Barker Drug Co. MAY BE DOUBLE MURDER Charlton’s Coat Discovered Near Place Where Wife’s Body Was Found. Como, Italy, June 14.—A part of a man's coat, declared by some of his fishermen neighbors to have belonged to Porter Charlton, was found in Lake Como, from the water of which the body of his murdered bride, Mary Scott Castle Charlton, was recovered last Friday. The torn garment was fished up from the bottom of the lake near the spot where the trunk containing the body of the woman was found. This discover: strengthens the theory of many that a double murder was committed. This is the view of Charles M. Caughy, the American con- sul at Milan, who believes that Charl- ton met the same fate as did his wife. Mr. Caughy is actively engaged in fur- thering the investigation. Earlier evi- dence that both of the Americans were killed, presumably for their val- uables, was found in the blood spat- tered bed at the villa which they occu- pied. It is understood that the seven wounds found on the woman’s head did not release any such quantity of blood as left its stains in their lake shore home.

NEW Rtuurb IS PROMISED, Heavy Increase.in Imports of Manufac- turers’ Materials. Washington, June 14.—The high rec- ord of imports of manufacturers’ ma- terials will be reached during the cur- rent fiscal year, which will displace 1907 as the “banner year” in the im- portation of such articles. This is the opinion of the bureau of statistics, based vpon the figures for the ten months ending April 30, 1910. In the cases of all the important articles, with the exception of fibers and cotton, which show a slight de- crease as compared with 1907, the im- portations materially exceeded those of 1907 in quantity, the increases rang- ing from 10 to more than 100 per cent.
