IN CHICAGO GAMBLERS’ WAR Considerable Damage in Continuation of Bomb Throwing. Chicago, Sept. 21.—Bombs Numbers 40 and 41 in the war between two fac- tions of gamblers were exploded in two places five miles apart within for- ty-five minutes of each other. In nei- ther case was any person seriously in- jured, though the damage to build-" ings was considerable. The first projectile ripped a wide opening directly above the entrance to Frieberg’s dance hall in Twenty-sec- ond street and the second explosive tore a great opening in the roof of the Woodlawn cafe, Sixty-third street and Cottage Grove avenue, driving fright- ened men and women to the streets in a panic. It is believed the second bomb was intended for an alleged poolroom ad- joining the Woodlawn cafe. For three years the police have been in a turmoil over mysterious explo- sions which have caused serious in- jury to a number of persons and thou- sands of dollars’ damage to property. The police believe that the bombs have all been thrown by the same man, but so far they have not been able to apprehend him.

Griscom of the Republican county committee said that the Taft- Roosevelt conference would not have the effect of changing in the least the plans of the progressives in their cam- paign against the “old guard,” and for control of the Republican state con- vention. Reports from progressives up state, Mr. Griscom said, indicate that at least 570 of the 1,015 delegates will support Colonel Roosevelt for the tem- porary chairmanship, while old guard leaders claim about 560. Epidemic of Scarlet Fever. ‘Winnipeg, Sept. 21.—An epidemic of scarlet fever has been discovered in the foreign section of North Winni- peg. There have been a half dozen deaths and the lack of accommoda- tions to provide for isolation is a se- rious handicap in coping with the spread of the disease. Child Drowns in Jar of Water. Denison, Ta,, Sept. 21—The baby daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Reimer, living six miles west of here, was drowned when she fell into a sixteen- gallon jar filied with rain water. The mother missed the child and found her dead. head downward, in the jar. His Nationality. The little girl had come home from school and was telling the family about a certain stout man that had lectured to them in the morning. When through ber father said: “What npationality was the man, daughter?” “Broken English," she replied.—Ex- change. Hair Monstrosities. French theater managers in the eighteenth century had worse evils than picture bats to contend against. Marie Antoinette, who was short, even according to French standards, set the fashion of high coiffures and ultra- fashionable women prided themselves on measuring four feet from their chins to the tops of their heads. These structures took about six hours to erect, the hairdresser mounting a lad- der in the process. Some coiffures were almost as broad as they were long, with wings sticking out about eight Inches on each side of the head. For the *‘frigate” coiffure the hair was rippled in a huge pile to represent the waves of an angry sea and sur- mounted by a fully rigged ship. As a consequence of these monstrosities, disturbances in theaters occurred al- most daily until an ordinance was is- sued against the admission of women with high coiffures to the floor of the house. Three Curious Bells. There is a curious legend connected with the bells of Messingham church. Tt is said that a long, long time ago a traveler was passing through Messing- ham when he noticed three men sitting on a stile in the churchyard and say- ing. #Come to church, Thompson; come to church, Brown,” and so on. Being very much surprised, he asked what it meant and was told that, having no bells, they called folks to church in this way. The traveler remarked that it was a pity so fine a church should be without bells and at the same time asked the men if they could make three for the church, promising to pay. for them himself.- They undertook to do this. They were respectively a tinker, a carpenter and a shoemaker. When next the traveler passed that way he found the three men ringing three bells which -said. “Ting, tong, pluff,” belng made respectively of tin, wood and leathér!—London Tit-Bits. EDITOR'S LIFE 1S ENDANGERED Devils Lake Scribe Shot by Unknown Man, WOUND IS NOT SERIOUS Publisher Had Taken Leading Part in Citizens’ Movement for Clean City and Some Member of Opposition Is Suspected of Doing the Shooting. Raid on Alleged Blindpiggers Results in Many Arrests. Devils Laks, N. D, Sept. 21—A tragic climax topped off a series of raids in Devils Lake, when Dan Bren- nan, publisher of the Devils Lake In- ter-Ocean and a leader in the citizens’ movement for a clean city, was mur- derously assaulted while leaving his offices. A man, supposedly of the “blind-pig faction,” met Brennan just eutside of his office door, putting @ revolver to the editor’s left side. Brennan acted quickly, jerked away slightly and the bullet went through the fleshy part of his arm. Whipping out his own revolver Brennan returned the fire, but missed his man. The would-be assassin es- caped by slashing a screen window and jumping a distance of about fif- teen feet. In the raids made on alleged “blind- pigging,” disorderly and - gambling houses A. D. Tuttle, John Wallace, H. Merry, Thomas Flutz, William Foote, William Reid, Sam Goldberg and Nel- 1ie Rogers were arrested and numerous inmates of the Rogers place also were taken up. The raids were participated in by Acting State’s Attorney Traynor and Dan Brennan, who was deputized by Sheriff Belford. The sheriff, Dep- uty Flumerfelt and about twenty citi« zens made up the rest of the raiding party. This attack was the third attempt within the last two months to assas- sinate Brennan. PENSIONS FOR ALASKA DOGS General Maus Will Recommend Actlon to War Department. Cosgrove, Wash.,, Sept. 21.—Pen- sions for Alaskan dogs are to be rec- ommended to the war department by Brigadier General Marion P. Maus, commanding general department of the Columbia. General Maus, who is directing the American Lake field maneuvers here, said that during his inspection tour of Alaska, from which place he came direct to Cosgrove, he was distressed by the present practice of turning old and disabled dogs adrift. “These dogs do worthy service on the various trails for years,” said the general. “They afford the only lines of communication between many of the army posts and are used for tak- ing through supplies. There are 300 of the dogs constantly in the service. As soon as a dog is disabled or super- annuated it is turned adrift. There should be some provision for the dogs, and I shall earnestly recommend the creation of a fund for properly caring for them when their service is ended.” VIOLENT STORMS IN SPAIN Immense Damage to Vineyards and Orchards. Madrid, Sept. 21.—Violent storms, accompanied by deluges of rain, have done inestimable damage to the vine- yards and olive orchards in Southern Spain. Bight villages, including Lor- ca and Cieza, are under water from three to six feet deep. The lower sec- tion of Barcelona is flooded and the tramway service in that part of the city is interrupted. The waters have reached the altars of St. Auls’ church, At Terre de Esteban, in the province of Toledo, an unprecedented hail storm is reported. MAY CAUSE GENERAL STRIKE Proposed Lockout of English Cotton Mill Employes. Manchester, Eng., Sept. 21.—Cotton mill employes have accepted the defl of the cotton employers’ federation, and declared that if the threatened lockout of Oct. 1 becomes operative they will effect a general strike throughout England by forcing the shutting down of 700 cotton mills which, with the allied industries af- fected, would throw out 550,000 work- men. Octogenarians Are Married. Cortland, N. Y., Sept. 21.—An- nouncement was received here of the marriage of Henry C. St. Johns of Leonardsville, aged eighty-four years, and Miss Myra W. Cushing of Little York, aged eighty years. The wed- ding is a culmination of a romance that began sixty years ago. Minnesota Centenarian Dead. 8t. Charles, Minn., Sept. 21,—Mrs. Margaret Teahen is dead at her home in Quincy township, seven miles north of St. Charles. She had attained the age of 102 years. Death was due to'a general decline. Until two years ago Mrs. Teahen scarcely knew a'sick day, having been strong and robust all her life.

Allentown, Pa., Sept. 21.—Mrs. Min- nié Shive, aged forty-one, who was un- der ball for trial at this month’s term of criminal court on a charge of keep- ing a disorderly house, died very sud- denly et her home. ~ According to her attorney, former Mayor Fred E. Lew: is, she was worrled to_death by the charge against her and she had: pre | ficted it would kill ber, e ‘Drugs and Sickness. - It is not too much to say that the medical profession today no longer be- lieves that any drug (with a few excep- tions. lke quinine in malaria, mer- cury and the antitoxins) will cure a disease as such, All that it will do is 8o to modify counditions as to help the body in its fight agalnst disease. We are no longer content, in the biting phrase of Voltaire, to *“pour drugs of which we know little into bodies of which we know less.” What will belp one patient will harm another, and what may be beneficial in the early stage of a disease will be useless or even injurious in a later stage. In the language of Captain Cuttle, the effect of a drug, like “the bearin’ of an observation,” “depends on the ap- plication on it.” It is neither rational nor safe blindly to swallow down a drug which is highly recommended in a certaln disease and expect it to “do the rest.” There is no such thing as a universal cure for a disease nor even a remedy which can be relled upon as “a good thing to take” at any and all’ stages of it.—Dr. Woods Hutchinson in Delineator. Gagadig Gigadab. There was a quaint old man in Man- chester, England, who for many years went by the unique name of Gagadig Gigadab. His original name was John Smith, and for-many years he brooded over the possibllities of mistaken iden- tity Involved in it. The name figured frequently in criminal records, and he became abnormally apprehensive lest he might be confused with some of the bad John Smiths. At last what he feared so much actually happened. One morning the papers reported the arrest of an accountant in a bank for embezzlement, and through some blun- der of the reporter the identity of the embezzler was confused with the sub- Ject of this article, who was also a bank accountant. Then and there he determined to assume a name like unto oo other-ever borne by mortal man. And in Gagadig Gigadab-most people will agree that he succeeded in 80 doing.—New York Tribune. Legally Better Off. The creditors of the anclent king had become so unpleasantly. insistent that he resolved to put them where they could trouble him no more. So he invited them to a great banquet, and when they had feasted and drunk of his prepared wine he instructed his servants to convey them to his deepest dungeons. And the next morning when he went down to learn whether his servants had done his bidding his creditors raised their voices and en- treated to be set free. But he remon- strated with them, saying: “My friends, you have no just cause for complaint. Are you not better off in the eye of the law than ever be- fore? Any lawyer will tell you that a secured creditor has an exceptional cinch.” Then he left them and went on his gladsome way, happy in the knowledge that he could at last go through his dominions without being dunned.—Chicago News. Masculine Musio. The musical doctor stepped into the shop. His hair stuck out ljke stiff straws, and his joy of life was under his arm; also two buttons-on his waistcoat were undone. So tbere was no doubt about his being a genius. “Aha, ahem, ahum!” purred the musical doctor. “‘B string for a violin, please.” ~ The man behind the counter looked flustered. He went to the shelf, took off a small packet, examined it care- fully, examined it again and then hes- itatingly returned to the customer. “l beg your pardon, sir,” he began diffidently, “but this 'appens to be my first day in the shop, and yer.might give me a little ’elp. The fact is these ‘ere strings look all alike to me, an’ 1 can’t tell the ’es from the shes!”—Lon- don Globe. Firearms In Russia.

When some celebrated pictares of Adam and Eve were seen on exhibi- tion Mr. McNab was taken to see them. “I think no great things of the painter,” said the gardemer. *“Why, man, tempting: Adam wf a pippin of a variety that wasna known until about twenty years ago!”’ Hindering the Process.

STANDPATTERS ARE IN CONTROL Dictate Republican Platform in New Jersey. LEWIS OBJECTS TO DRAFT Candidate for Governor Says Docu- ment Is Not Sufficiently Progressive to Meet His Approval and Har- monize With His Speech of Accept- ance—United States Senator Kean Heads Resolutions Committee. Trenton, N. J., Sept. 21.—The Re- publican state committee labored for more than two hours on a platform prepared by a sub-committee com- posed of standpatters of that body for submission to the state convention which will select the party’s candidate for governor. A large number of amendments were offered, most of them coming from the progressives, and in nearly all instances the amendments were de- feated. At the conclusion of the meet- ing the platform was referred back to the sub-committee to be put in proper phraseology. - The platform does not declare for direct primaries and a plank favoring the physical valuation of railroads was defeated. Attorney General Edward Wilson was present at the state committee’s choice for temporary chairman. Mr Wilson aroused the enthusiasm of the convention by particularizing Repub- lican leaders in which he mentioned “the flaming Roosevelt” and “the wise and tactful Taft.” Both names were received with prolonged cheers. Two Kinds of Insurgents. Mr. Wilson referred to insurgency and said there were two kinds of in- surgents, "the kind that fights within the party and the kind that fights without. He said there were two main things responsible for insur- gency—Cannonism and the tariff. Of Cannonism he said that no man was bigger than his party and if the rules of congress were too drastic they should be changed. He defended the present tariff law and said if it need- ed any changing the changes should not be permitted to be made by the: enemies of protection. The sub-committee appointed by the state committee to draft a platform was composed of United States Sen- ator Kean, Congressman Gardner and State Senator Wakelee, all three de- cided standpatters. The rough draft of a platform prepared by them when submitted to Mr. Lewis did not meet with his approval. It was not suf- ficiently progressive and did not har- monize Wwith the speech of acceptan-e he was prepared to deliver to the con- vention aflter his nomination.
