SILKS FOR KIDSAPED GIRL 1S FOUND Obarlotte Stevens Retnrnd to Mother After Beven Yoars' Absence. ACTRESS WHO STOLE. HER DISAPPEARS Jeanette” Absadoned, DANVILLE, Ind.,. March 16s(harlotte May Stevens, who seven.yearsago was kid- naped from her bome in I Paso, Tex., was today taken from the Industrial Home for Girls at Hadley by Sheriff Boone of El Paso, Tex., and is now on her way back to her mother. Sheriff Boone has devoted five years at a personal expense of over $600 in search- ing for the child, The only reward he ex- pects is the satisfaction of knowing that he has been successful in restoring the child to her mother. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 16 Boone of El Paso, Tex., came here today after Charlotte May Stevens, an 11-year-old girl, who was kidnaped at her home in El Paso by an actress six years ago. The child is now In the Hadley Industrial school near { Danville, Ind., and the sheriff, accompanied by Detectives Dungan and Gerber, went there after her. The case is one of the most remarkable that has come to the attention of the po- lice In years. The child was discovered in the school by an Indianapolis woman who visited the place. By chance she asked the child concerning her past life and the lit- tle girl told a disconnected story about be- ing taken away from her home. The Tu- dianapolls woman took an intorest In the case and wrote to the authorities in Texas for purticulars The reason the child was kidnaped is not known. She was taken about the country by the actress. Four years ago the child was taken In charge by Mrs. Brazier of Lafayette, who was not cognizant of the fact that the little one bad u home, and & short time later she was flaced in the In- dustrial school The police were told that the father of the child had died since the kidnaping. The | mother and a sister, who Is a teacher in the El Paso schools, live in El Paso. The actress, who was kiown as “Jeanette,” disappearcd several years ago. GOOD COUNTRY FOR WHEAT Argent Sherif Republic Hax Climate Well CHICAGO, March 16.—B. F. Soow, crop expert of the Orange Judd Farmer, returned to Chicago today after a six months' trip through tke Argentine Republic, where he went to investigate the crop conditions prevailing in that country. According to Mr. Snow, conditiops of soil and climate in the South American republic make pos- sible the production of meat and raising of graln superior to any output the United Btates enjoys “In the raising of wheat,” said Mr. Snow today, “conditions gradually are becoming almost \dentical with those of this country. At preseht wheat is grown in Argentina over an extent of country covering as many kinds of soil and climate as exist here. The wheat district now extends fully 1,000 miles north and south and 200 miles east and west. This furnishes such a variety of soll and climate that there never is a complete crop fallure or a perfect crop in | all places, a condition which nsures more uniformity -in the production of the coun- try."” DOES NOT SATISFY REFINERS British teetio ar Makers Want More Pro- Than the Proposed Import Tax, LONDON, March 16—~While it Is now generally understood that the new budget will include & tax on sugar this by no means | satisfies the influential private committes of members of the House of Commons which Is workiug in the British refiners’ interests This committee s still exerting much pressure on the government to bring about the introduction of a countervallng Jduty in addition to the halfpenny per pouhd tax that, reports say, will be lmposed on sugar While the government has not yet agreed r | Grape-Nuts Food [ARCH 17 of the Associat membei of t the committe 1 Press was Informed by a ommittee referred to that has hopes of bringing the chancellor the uer, Sir Michael Hicke-Beach, to its way of thinking.

Again the sec- onds assembled (o open a sealed mahogany where pistols had been shut since they were loaded in the morning in the presence of the four men. Dion removed each weapon and then stepped backward to the center line, reinstructing In loud and distinet voice the combatants about the agreed conditions. The speech lasted but one minute, during which the fighters turped their coat collars up to prevent the whiteness of the shirt attracting aim. “Messleurs, are you ready? The duelists wheeled about, thelr heels to the right, so that each, presenting his flank, exposed the least surface. “Roady,” answered both.

Then there was an awful minute, which people who have not seen it cannot imagine. In this French dueling habit, perhaps too lightly sneered at, this poignant indecislon which wrings your heart, while the smoke slowly dissipates and attendants and principals gaspingly wonder who is going to collapse, redeems this whole businesf from reputed puerility. in this instance both black silhouettes, Boui's tall, slim and aristocratic, Roday's short, stocky and determined, remained perfectly motionless for one moment, each mentally questioning his avatomy, no doubt Then De Rodays changed his pistol to his left hand and brought the right over his thigh, “I am wounded here,” he said, tried to step forward and staggered. He was caught by his second rushing from the spot where the seconds fir helped him down. De Rodays, after Dion had left the group, was borne away some distance upon the cleaner surface of the asphalted race track, where, as he was stretched out, the doctor immediately began cutting his clothes away and probing the wound, which elicited two terrible yells from the patient. Blood flowed in such quantity that the sur- geon applied temporary bandages without further examination. Meanwhile his rela- tives were calling him from the outside. e Count Avoids Lionizing. Boni stepped to the board fence, shaking the hands of his father and brothers out- side, but cutting short the effusive con- gratulations of some twenty friends who had gradually assembled in various con- veyances. The count evidently deemed it unbecoming to lend himself to a lionizing just after the bloody episode. It had been noticeable, too, that Boni, whd affected a laughing unconcern and was joking with the doctor and waving his hand to the people outside, changed face when he took his posifion. His face paled, hardening into almost an uncanny determination when he heard the wounded man cry under the surgeon’s nrobe. with the authorization of his Iked over and waited until the bandage was affixed and extended his hand to the editor lying prone, who, after a hesitation so marked that everybody no- ticed it, took it. No words passed and no great cordlality was visible. Evidently it was a compulsory politeness on the par of both. De Rodays was taken into a cab, which had served as a racer's dressing room. Boni stepped into his carriage, re- maining enclosed perhaps fifteen minutes, awalting the news. When he learned thar the wound was mot dangerous he drove away and straight home. Anna Gould ix Relieved. As s00n as the shots were fired the World correspondent dispatched a cyclist to the Botanical station with a telephone message for Countess Anna, apprising her of the result. The anxiety of Boni's wife ant mother were thus allayed half an hour bes fore any other message could reach them, for which attention both the women and later the count himself dispatched warm thanks. Do Rodays reached home in a carriage at 4:30. Castellane got to his house at 4:20 and took tea. He heard his secretary read many letters and telegrams, a large num- ber being from America, the most wishing good luck, quite a few, on the contrary, expressing the hope that “Boni would at last get his reward and get killed, so that the earth would be rid of his blatant, use- less personality.”” These caused the count no end of amusement. Boni dined alone with his wife, declining all invitations. Later, both dressed and went to the Coms edie Francaise to see Sardou’s new drama, “Patrie.” The World correspondent by the count and counfess in their box, but Boni politely refused to discuss the affair, saying that etlfics forbade This his third duel.

COMMAND Department Now Plans to Retain Him There Until Establishment of Civil Government, Which is Expected Soon, WASHINGTON, March 16.—General Mac- Arthur will remain In command in the Philippines until the civil government is established. That the War department ex- pects such a government to be established within the next two months Is evident, ss it is determined that General Chaffee will bucceed General MacArthur as commander of the forces in the Philippines. General Chaffee and his forces in China will sail from Taku about the last of April He ranks General MacArthur, and would naturally be iu command, but If the civil government s not established in that time General MacArthur will continue to be the military goversor and commandant The War dopartment considers that the hard fighting for the army is practically at an end. The dlspatch from General Mac- Arthur received today is regarded as very encouraging. No informatioh has been ceived at the department through either military or unoffcial channels regarding Aguinaldo, but the impression prevalls that he is dead or has disappeared to come of the very remote islands, seeking a pl safety. el MUST CONTROL HIS INDIANS Otherwise Agent MeCheaney at Rowes ad ikely to Be Sup- pianted. WASHINGTON, March 16.—(Special Tele- gram.)—A letter has been received at the Indian office from Agent McChesney of Roscbud, S. D, stating that the Indians are complaining of the reduction of ra- tions ordered some time ago by the com- missioner. Commissioner Jones sald today that complaints of the present rations come only from Agent McChesney and he added that that officlal would be advised that it he canpot handle the Indians at the Rose- bud office he will secure someone who can cope with the situation. Commissioner Jones is of the opinion that if Agent McChesney uses his authority firmly no trouble need be antleipated. Of- clals express the belief that the Indians are incited to complain by the traders at Rosebud and it is intimated here that some of them may lose their licenses.

THEOKIES ABOUT FOOD.

A warm welcome was extended to any kind from bacon to acorns 2 Ashealthy appetite and common sense aro excellent guides to follow in matters of diet, and mixed diets of graius, fruits and meats Is undoubtedly the best As compared with grains and vegetables, meat furnishes the most nutriment in u highly concentrated form and is digested and assimilated more quickly than vegeta- bles and grains Dr. Julius Remmson on this subject says Nervous persons, people run down in health and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of it. If the digestion is too feeble at firat it may be easily coriccted by the regular uso of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablots tor each meal. Two of these excellent téblets taken after dinuer will digest sev cral thousand grains of meat, eggs or other animal food in three hours, and no matter how weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be experienced it a regular practice is made of using Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets because they supply the pepsin and diastase necessary to perfect digestion, and every form of indigestion will be overcome by their use. That large class of people who come under the head of nervous dyspeptics should eat plenty of meat and insure its proper diges- tion by the dally use of a safe, harmies digestive medicine like Stuart's Dyspe Tablets composed of the natural digestive principles, pepsin, diastase, fruit acids and salts, which actually perform the work of digestion, Cheap cathartlc medicines, mas querading under the uame of dyspepsia cures are uscless for indigestion as they have_absolutely no effect upon the actual digestion of food. Dyspepsia in all its many forms is simply a failure of the stomach to digest food and the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make daily use at meal time of a preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which is endorsed by the medical profession and known to cou- tain active digestive principles.
