THE GCV:RNMENT 1 SERIOUS DANGER Everything Now Depends on the Leyalty of the Army Whole Authorities Profess Confidence im the Outcome of the Struggle— May Proclaim Rep: Moscow, Dec. 25.—The situation Sun- day morning was hourly growing worse. The insurgents held several quarters of the city and fighting con- Unued desperately. Two large arms stores had been pil- laged and the weapons distributed among the men who erected barricades along the Sadovia, which encircles the city. The searchlights on the Soukaroff end other towers illuminate the streets where the fighting was proceeding. Machine guns were employed to clear the Sadovia. It is impossible to esti- mate the number of dead and wound- ed, but it probably will run into the thousands. In a squere in the heart of the city the insurgents made a desperate fight from a house, chine gun from the windows against a battery which was cannonading them, Artillery, rifle and revolver firing continued throughout Sunday, but the noise of the battle has now somewhat abated. The guns have been bom- barding one barricade after another, the cannonade being followed by charges by the dragoons, who set fire to the debris, The revolutionaries apparently have not in the least lost heart, notwith- standing Saturday's heavy casualties. It is now known that 500 is a moder- ate estimate of the losses and many more persons fell Sunday. Late Sunday afternoon it was re. ported that fighting was proceeding in the outskirts of the city and that there were heavy losses on both ‘sides. St. Petersburg, Dee, 25.—With Mos+ cow's baptism of blood, the revolue tionaires made good their threat to transform the strike into armed rebel- lion and the next 48 hours should de- termine whether they can marshal suf- ficient strength to plunge the country into an actual state of civil war and seriously threaten the immediate down- fall of the government. The government profesess confidence that the whole attempt will fail ow- ing to the woeful insufficiency of arms in possession of the proletariat and by reason of the loyalty Of the} army as a whole; but its calculations | might again be rudely upset, A few; arsenals might be seized to furnish | arms or the open suppdért of a few regiments might start a landslide in the army. Certainly the shrewdest of the revolutionary leaders fully ap- preciae that th issue must be decided by the attitnde of the army which id yet to cast the die. 25.—The railroads were sti the situation was se the news irom Moscow all socialist parties have issued p tions sun ung the armed rebellion. the the clama- people for an Odesse ical strike bakers and waier works em however, are still at work.

BEEF CLUBS OF FARMERS, A Co-Operative Plan by Which Fresh Meat Is Furnished Weekly at Little Cost. Abilene, Kan., Dec, 25.—¥armers of portheastern Kansas have devised a plan which makes them independent of the beef trust and gives them an advantage tnat is appreciated in the economics of their households. At the beginning of winter they organized “beef clubs” of 15 farmers each. No Officers were elected, but at the pre- Mminary meeting they drew lots for the places of supremacy, each receiving a number from one to 15. These num- bers are to be retained during the winter, ‘When the organization is complete the first assessment is made to pay for er for a small sum. It is divided into 15 parts—all except the hide, refuse, ete., which are sold and credited to- ward the next purchase. The 15 por- tions of the desirable meat are num- bered from 1 to 15, beginning with the choicest portion and ending with that least prized.

The price of the shoe doesn’t determine this question. It’s more often the make. If you find the name Selz on the sole of a shoe, no matter what the price, you will know that the shoe is as good as can be made for the price asked. Good material, well put together and made to fit feet and to be comfortable; that describes Selz Royal Blue and Perfecto shoes. We sell them. Ask for Selz Royal Blue or Perfecto the first time; you'll demand them the second time. The name is always on the sole; an unfailing sign of shoe quality. .
