Van- derbilt Jr. to-day finished a mile in thirty-five seconds in an automobile practice run. 1 might have done the mile in thirty- seven seconds officially on this beach,” sald Vanderbilt as he left in his special car for Palm Beach. “I did thirty-five seconds in practice.” The actual speed at which Vanderbilt might have traveled yesterday is; of course, a matter of conjecturg. He did travel in thirty-nine seconds, which is sufficient unto the day, for it is the world’'s record. Vanderbilt also aver- aged forty-one seconds for ten miles, which is looked upon as quite as re- markable automobiling as the one-mile trial in thirty-nine seconds, for ten miles in forty-one seconds in competi- tion means that he must have gone un- der that time—perhaps one second, per- haps two and perhaps more toward the close. —_————————— SOCIETY MEN SUSPECTED OF MURDER YOUNG Police Find Clews Which May Con- nect Bedford Youths With Mur- der of Miss Schaefer.

Additional evidence, the police assert, has been discovered in the barn where the death struggle took place and they promise a decided step toward ferreting out the murderer within another day or two.

Steel is in many respects the best substitute and in some it is superior | to whalebone. Its fatal defects are its tendency (o rust and its sharp edges, which cut the fabric of the corset. While it has almost exclusively re- placed whalebone in the cheaper grade of corsets, these two defects have shut it out entirely from use by the high- grade commercial and custom corset | makers. Horn strips and 6ther sub- stitutes lack the resiliency and light- ness of whalebone. There is a substitute now on the market which seems to fill about all the requirements. thin strips of steel of the highest grade, covered with a composition which absolutely protects it from rust, and which at the same time, having | rounded edges. protects the fabric of the corsel or dress from being cut by the sharp edges of the steel. Unlike whalebone, it is practically indestruc- tible, possessing greater resiliency, and | is much thinner than whalebone of equal strength, which is a strong point in its favor. The chief drawback to its use is that it cannot be cut to the lengths required, but the manufacturer declares that it is made in so many lengths that it is unnecessary to cut itt—New York Press, Rails Send Two Cars| Down a Steep Embankment | twenty miles an hour was de- | IE It is pomposed of ' NEY FIGHT FROM DAV - NTIL DUSK Desperate Battle for Life Oc- eurs in an Arizona Mining Camp and One of the Three Combatants Is Dead QUARREL FOLLOWS ‘ DRINKING OF LIQUOR Battered Victorin the Struggle With Two Companions Trav- els to Kingman and Surren- ders to the Authorities e e KINGMAN, A.

NEW HAVEN, Jan. 31.—Professor Henry Andrews Bumstead of the phy- sical department of Sheffield Scientific School, who, with an assistant, Pro- fessor L. P. Wheeler, has been experi menting for several months with ra. dium found in surface water and earth around this city, has just completed | his work and the American Journal of | Science to-morrow will give a detailed | account of the results obtained. Pro- | fessor Bumstead has had such great success in his investigations that a | leave of absence for the coming vear ! has been granted him by the Yale cor- poration in order th&t he may con- tinue his investigations abroad. Professor Bumstead draws three conclusions of the greatest interest to investigators. In regard to the pres. ence of radio-active gas in the eart and in surface water near this city. Professor Bumstead says: “First—Radio-active gas found in the ground and in surface water near New Haven is apparently identical with the | emanation from radium. | “Second—The density of the radium | emanation, as determined by its rate of diffusion, is about four times that of ! carbon dioxide, which gives it a molec- ular weight of 180. “Third—We are unable to obtain | radlo-active gas from mercury, recent- |1y described by Strutt, and are there- | fore inclined to attribute his results| | to an impurity in the mercury used.” | —_— e | FINAL REST FOR BODY orced Removal From Genoa Ceme- | tery Brings It Back to Land of | Adoption. In charge of Professor Alexander | Graham Bell, the body of James Smithson founder of the Smithsonian Institution in Wasbington, D. C., on its way to New York from Gibral: tar. James Smithson was the natural berland, and Elizabeth, niece of the Duke of Somerset, a lineal descendant of Henry VII. He became a wander- er, visited this country, and when he died at Genoa, Italy, in 1829, he lefr his entire fortune, amounting to | 500,000, to the Government of the United States “to found at Washing- ton, under ‘he name of the Smith- sonian Instituidony an establishment | for the knowledge among men.” §TH had been Smithson’s boast that berland and Percys, who were his an- cestors, were extinct and forgotten. Smithson’s legacy to the United States { was brought to this country by Rich- ard Rush sixty-five years ago. The money was brought in 105 Bags, each 4+-containing 1000 gold sovereigns. As {a result of the investment of that fund there has grown up in Washing- | ton an institution which, in addition ' to the income of $50,000 from Smith- son's legacy, expends each year $450,~ 000. 2 It came to the attention of Profes- sor Alexander Graham Bell about a vear ago that Smithson's body was about to be disturbed. : The cemetery | give way to a marble quarry and the was set forth.

FROM OTHER' LANDS Are Imported Into This County to Destroy Others Killing Our Fruit Trees. The American public naturally looks with suspicion upon the importation of foreign living products. The English sparrow, first brought here about thirty | years ago, has driven away nearly all our native song birds, while the Ger- man caro has driven from our streams most of the fine food fishes with which they once abounded. It is now proposed to import a cer- tain breed of insect which, it is claimed, will rid the orchards of diseases that are imperiling the bearing capacity of the trees. This insect, though called the Chinese lady<bird, is mothing but an insect. It is said to be the natural enemy of the dreaded San Jose scale. | Its discovery in its native habitat near the great wall of China was one of the [adhered to. with perhaps a touch of ' clerks, most valuablé finds credited to the Agricultural Department. It is mul- tiplying at a very satisfactory rate. Colonies were sent out to six States during the last year with encouraging success. A colony liberated in a Geor- i gia peach orchard of 17,000 trees now numbers 30,000 or 40,000 insects, and awith the additional broods expected be- fore the emd of = the season wHIl be numerically strong enough to pragtical- ly exterminate the scale. As this’ or- ! chard adjoins another of 250,000 trees similarly infested, - the spread of the beetle will be anxiously awaited. Equally promising are the reports of the results of the ‘importation from Italy and Africa of an insect enemy of the black scale which threatened the destruction of California’s famous or- chards. The insect is now established in every country south of Point Con- ception, and yet the Commissioner of Horticulture at San Francisco, who has been distributing the colonies, cannot Angeles Commissioners distributed over 400 strong colonies at Escondido. At Pasadena the insects, according to the Commissioner of Agriculture, have | spread naturally, and, what is vitally important, have destroyed “over 90 per cent of the black scale.” The other important insect importa- | tion made by the division, namely, the inseot that is essential for the fertiliza- tion of figs and the production of the numerous seeds so characteristic of the Mediterranean fruit, has become thor- oughly acclimatized at Fresno and at Niles, Cal. The fig crop raised at the former place last year was large and of very superior quality. Now that the secret of fig growing has been traced to the agency of an insect and the lat- ter has become thoroughly established new fig orchards are springing up in many parts of California.—Chicago Chronicle, An Unfortunate Remark.

The festive season is kept in royal fashicn at Sandringham, and all the old English traditions are scrupulously | | the German sentimental feeling, which | makes the Christmas tree as much a part of the festival ‘as plum pudding {and roast beef are here. The ceremony of receiving the Christ- mas presents at Sandringham is a most elaborate one. All the gifts, with la- bels and inscriptions,” are laid out on | tables in one of the sitting rooms, and | the gifts of each person generally oc- | cupy a whole table. The King is a great present giver and really enjoys choosing gifts for his friends, nor does he shirk the personal trouble of making each one appropriate to its recipient. Jewelry is his most freque<nt choice, but he also gives snuff boxes, cigar boxes and walking sticks. His Majesty sends few Christmas cards, as he prefers writing little notes of | greeting, which are naturally most highly valued. i The Queen has a certain. num- ber of “‘private’” Christmas cards print- ed for her friends, but her Majesty, like the King, sends notes and little gifts to her personal friends in preference to the more hackneyed and less compli- mentary form of greeting. Last Christ- mas she ‘sent a great many jeweled brooches and trinkets, while some spe- cially favored indlviduals - received photographs taken by the Queen, most daintily mounted and with the ropal monogram (“A” surmounted by a crown) on the frame. | Neither the Queen nor the Princess of ‘Wales often go to the shops, but order selections of all the novelties to be sent them. Princess Louise (Duchess of Ar-' ! gyll), the Duchess of Connaught and the daughters of the King go to the shops themselves and make their unob- trusive purchases with other people. The late Queen gave much more “use- ful” presents than is the fashion with the royal family to-day, often sending dress lengths of tartan, velvet, plaids and sometimes Cairngorms and other Scotch jewelry. Queen Victoria herself | probably received more gifts during her | life than any other living person, and | the actual value must have amounted to quite a million pounds sterling. Apropos of royal presents it is inter- esting to know that whatever other gifts the King and Queen give their daughters each year as their birthday anniversaries come round the Prin- cesses receive an exquisite pearl, as perfect in shape and coior as can be time they were grown up they were each the fortunate possessors of a love- ly chain of fine pearls.—London Mail. e 5 Are Women Really Stingy? or in giving, are monly making use of money, thai ers have earned.

We over- tax the digestive apparatus to such an | | extent that it refuses to perform its duty and a conglomerate mass of half- | chewed, undigested material lies in the stomach until it rots, causing the forma- | tion of acids, gases and ptomaines which :toduce the painful condition which we { know as dyspepsia. For business men, office men and and in fact every one engaged in sedentary or indoor occupations, grains, milk and vegetables, with a mod- erate meat allowance, are much more healthful than a heavy meat diet. Only men engaged in severe outdoor i manual labor can live on a heavy meat diet and continue in health. It is a well-established truth that nine- tenths of all diseases originate with a king down of the digestion. A weak e i i Uncle Sam Has Dyspepsia. 'Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets Are a Positive and Permanent Cure for the National Disease. Home and May Have Perished ™ as a people we eat too much apd the stomach weakens and impoverishes the system, making it easy for disease to gain a foothold. Nobody need fear consumption, kidney disease, liver trouble or a weak heart and nervous system so long as the diges- tion is good and the stomach able to as- similate plenty of wholesome food. Thousands have séme form of stoméch trouble and do not know it. They as- cribe the headache, the langor, nervous- ness, insomnia, papitation, constipation and similar mptoms to some other cause than the true ome. Get your di- gestion on the right track and the heart trouble. lung trouble, liver disease or nervous debility will rapidly disappear. Nothing is more certain than that the use of so-called tonics, stimulants and medicin®s, whick depend upon aleohol for their effect, is injurious to health in the long run. Many liquid patent medicines derive their effect entirely . from the alcohol they contain. j Alechol and medicines containing it are temporary stimulants and net in any sense a true tonic. In fact, it is dotibt- ful if any medicine or drug Is & real tonic. A true tonic is something which will renew, replenish, build up the exhausted nervous system and wasted ‘tissues of the body; something that will enrich the blood and endow it with the proper pro- portions of red and white corpuscles, which prevent or destroy disease Tms. This is what a real tonic should do and no_drug or alcoholic stimulant will do it. The only true tonic in nature is witole- some food thoroughly digested. Every partiele of nervous energy, every minute muscle, fiber and drop of blood is cre- ated daily from the food we digest. The mere eating of food has little to 40 with the repair of waste tisstie, but the perfect digestion of the féod eaten has everything to do with it. The reason so few people have perfect digestion is because from wrong habits of living the stomach has gradual.y lost the power to secrete the gastrie juice, peptones and acids in sufficient quantity. To cure indigestion and stomach trou- bles it is necessary to take after meals some harmless preparation which will supply the natural peptone and diastase which every weak stomach lacks, and probably the best preparation of this character is Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found in every drug store and which contain in pleasant, palatable form the wholesome peptone and dias- tase which nature requires for prompt digestion. One or two of these excellent tablets taken after meals will prevent souring. fermentation and acidity and insure com- plete digestion and assimilation. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are as equally valuable for little children as for adults, as they contain nothing harmful or stimulating, but only the natural di- gestives. One of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 1800 grains of meat, eggs or other wholesome food, and they are in every sense a genuine tonic because they bring about in the only natural way a restora- tive of nerve power, a building up of lost tissue and appetite, in the only way it can be done by the digestion and as- similation of wholesome food. The root of the matter is this, the digestive elements contained in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food. give the overworked stomach a chance to recuperate, and the nerves and whole system receive the nourishment which can only come from food; stimulants and nerve tenics never give real strength, they give a fictitious strength, invaria- bly followed by reaction. Every drop of blood, every nerve and tissve is manu- factured from our daily food, s=nd if you cun Insure its prompt action and com- plete digestion by the regular uae of so good and_ wholesome a reéemedy as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, you will have nqg need of nerve tonics and sani- tariums. Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been in the market only a few ¥ s, yet probably every druggist in the United States, Canada and Great Britain now sells them and considers them the most pdpular and successful of any-prep- aration for stomach trouble.
