In speaking of Peruna, Robert Down- ing, the famous tragedian, says: “You may notice that persons in poor health always find the heat most intol- erable; this I avoid by using Peruna. I know by the thermometer that the weather is hot, yet I have felt the heat less this summer than ever. ‘1 find Perunaa preventative against all sudden summer ills that swoop upon one in changing climates and water. It is the finest traveling companion and safeguard against malarial influences, “The cooling action of Peruna on the mucous membrane makes it invaluable to actors and singers, as it does away with that tendency to suciden hoarsen€ss #0 apt to overtake one on emerging from SYSTEMIC GATARRH Claims Many Thousands.

From the Washington Post, Judge Ogden Hiles, of Salt Lake City, whois at the New Willard, was for a long while assistant United States district attorney of Utah, and in his official capacity prosecuted scores of violators of the statute against polygamy. “It is not with the people in our state,” said he, “so much a question of politics as of social and business differences. The Ines between the whites and the negroes in the south are not more. sharply defined than between the Mormons and the Gen- tiles of Utah. The Mormon heir- archy has complete domination of contrary todhe advices or wishes of thechurch authorities is pursued vin- dictively. If the church cancompass his downfall, he will be a ruined man.” “But isn’t polygamy itself ap- proaching a period of decay that bodes its early extinction?” “I should say that no such fate seems imminent. It is true that the manifesto of President Woodruff for- bade plural marriage, but all the same the practice has been kept up. Infact, those who live in polygamous relations are the aristocrats of the “piver ia atretchel to @ max width of ten miles and the boundary - Hines have been so changed as to place La Mesa nearly a half mile on the Mexican side. The crop losses in the Rio Grande valley are estimated at nearly $100,- 000 and are growing at the rate of $15.000 aday. Whole farmsin that section have been destroyed. Hundreds of head of live stock and many lives have been lost among the Mexicans. An army of men are fighting to-night in a hopeless at- tempt to divert the flood water into the canal, with property owners along the canal resisting the en- croachment. For a distance of eighty miles the Rio Grande has cut ita course from the original channel from one to ten miles. Baptist Minister Says Rockefeller Gift Proper.

Dr. Robert Stuayt MacArthur, pastor of the calvary Baptist church of this city, to be published to-morrow in the Examiner, 6 Baptist publication, to be coarse, cruel, and perhaps, criminal, and to have maligned the entire Baptist denomination.

Montrose, Colo., June 5.—At least five men were killed and two serious- ly injured by the cave-in Gunnison reclamation tunnel. C. Taylor and Fred Groff were pin- foned under heavy timbers and ter- ribly injured. They would have been drowned but for the efforts of their entombed companions, who impro- vised a dam to hold back the water, which poured into the tunnel fora time. Twenty-one men were rescued uninjured, butexhausted by their ter- rible experience They were hoisted with ropes through a shaft which had been sunk 60 feet in less than twen- ty four hours. The rescuers worked in three-min- ute relays until the tunnel wasreach- ed. When the heavy timbers of the roof of the tunnel were broken the entombed men were found standing in water above the knees and still working with a will to prevent fur- ther disast-r, as the soft dirt was constantly sliding. As the uninjured men, one after another, were brought to the surface they were greeted with shouts of joy by hundreds of men, women and children who were look- ing for relatives and friends.

All of the officers were sent to Shimonose ki. “In the engagement fought off Liancourt rocks the Russian battle ships were surrounded by Japanese ships, which circled about them, pouringin a terrible fire, and they al- most immediately fell into hopeless contusion. Seeing their plight Vice- Admiral Togo signaled trom the bat- tleship Kikasa a demand to know whether the Russians were ready to surrender, Our ships complied with the demand.” Other accounts of the battle de- scribe the roar of the cannonade as so terrible that houses were shaken at Yamaguchi, twenty-eight miles distant, and the people supposed it was an earthquake. The Japanese flzet suff-red little. The battleship Asahi was often hit and suffered the heaviest losses, but did not quit the firing line. Ad- miral Kamamura was sent south- ward.
