WAR SCARE STORY OF
SUN FELL FLAT
Believed Only Attempt to
Belittle President.
WASHINGTON, D. C„ October 21.
(Special)—The Japanese war scare
story that appeared in the New York
Sun last week under a Washington
date line fell absolutely flat In offi
cial circles here. Officials in the
War and Navy Departments said they
would not deny the article because
it was simply a misinterpretation of
facts and a wrong construction plac
ed upon acts in both departments. Its
alleged disclosures were laughed at.
There has never been any serious
thought of actual war with Japan
among army and navy men, although
there are officers in both services who
would rather welcome such an event
and who believe that some time it
will come, but the most sanguine
among them admit that the “some
time” is far in the future. The pur
pose of the war article printed to
nerally believed here to be
a part of a policy to belittle and dis
credit President Roosevelt, by repre
senting him as in search of conquest,
impetuous and irresponsible.
IMMIGRATION SOUTH
WILL BE THE THEME
NORFOLK, VA., October 21.
(Special)—A conference of business
men and railroad presidents of Vir
ginia and other States of the South
will assemble here Tuesday to discuss
the formation of a Southern immigra
tion association. The chief objects
of the proposed association will be
to secure the establishment of a
passenger steamship service between
Norfolk and Europe and to place the
advantage of Southern localities be
fore prospective immigrants.
A Bold Stoi).
A
To overcome the well-grounded and
reasonable objections of the more intel
ligent to the use of Sfccret, medicinal com
pounds, Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.
Y., some time ago, decided to make a bold
departure from the usual course pursued
by the makers of put-up medicines for do
mestic use, arioso has published broad
cast and openly to the whole world, a full
and compete list of all the ingredients
entering inWthe composition of his widely
celebrated tjoydiejues. Thus he has taken
his numerous putrons and patients into
his full imnMence. Thus too he has re*
movecMiis/medicines from among secret
nostrvunrfof doubtful merits, and made
IhexnLiicmcdics of Known Composition.
Hv this hold step Dr. Pierce has shown
that his formulas qre of such excellence
that lie i<) nor, afraid to subject them to
|KpL]lu>stS(;nitlnv.,
Not only does the wrapper of every bo'tic
of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, the
famous medicine for weak stomach. pid
liver or biliousness and all catarrhal diseases
wherever located, have printed upon it. in
plain Eiialiah, a full and complete list of all
the ingredients composing it, but a small
book lias been compiled from numerous
standard medical works, of all the different
schools of practice, containing very numer
ous extracts from the writings of leading
practitioners of medicine, endorsing in the
strongest posh it J* terms, each and every ingre
dient contained in Dr. Pierce’s medicines.
One of these little books will be mailed free
to anyone sending address on postal card oi
by letter, to Dr. It. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.,
and requesting the same. From this little
book it will be learned that Dr. Pierce’s med
icines contain no alcohol, narcotics, mineral
agents or other poisonous or injurious agents
and that they are made from native, medici
nal roots of great vai te: also that some of
the most valuable in,.—-dients contained in
Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription for weak,
nervous, over-worked, "tun-down,’’ nervous
and debilitated vu • n, wi to employed, long
years ago, by the Inmans k r ailments

most valuable medit inr.l plants entering into
the composition of Dr. I ien e\- Favorite Pro
scription was known to the Indians as
"Squaw-Weed.” Our knowledge of ilie uses
of not a few of our most valuable native, me
dicinal plants was ga'.ned-ficm the Indians.

FOR REMARKABLE
CASE OE HEROISM
Medal Given by Carnegie
Hero Fund Commission.
PITTSBURG, PA., October 21.
(Special)—The Carnegie Hero Fund
Commission has awarded medals and
money to twenty-four persons, nine
of whom are from New York and
several from New England. Among
the awards was that of a bronze med
al and SSOO to John Hill, a colored
man of Atlanta, Ga This is the first
time that a colored person has been
favorably considered by the commis
sion.
By far the most important award
made was that of gold medal and $3,-
600 in cash to Andrew J. Hedger,
Superintendent of the schools of Fin
ney County, Kansas. The commission
considers this case the most extra
ordinary example of heroism ever
brought to its notice.
November 27, 1906, Hedger ran
two miles and entered a well 72
feet deep, worked two hours with
a shovel to liberate and save the life
of Joseph H. King, and he also at
tempted ta save the life of William
H. Munn, both of whom had been
caught in a cave-in. The wife of
Hedger had been confined in a hospi
tal for eight years, and he had four
small children. On reaching the
mouth of the well he offered to draw
lots with any of 200 persons present
to enter the well.
Wrote Farewell Note
All refusing, he wrote his four
children and his wife a farewell note,
with instructions regarding his in
surance policies, gave it to one of
the bystanders, and was lowered to
what seemed certain death. In two
hours he uncovered King, whom he
sent to the surface. He also recover
ed the dead body of Munn, and had
just enough strength left to tie the
rope about his body and was drawn
to the surface.
Hard Times in Kansas.
The old days of grasshoppers and
drouth are almost forgotten in the
prosperous Kansas of today; although
a citizen of Codell, Earl Shamburg,
has not yet forgotten a hard time he
encountered. He says: “I was worn
out and discouraged by coughing night
and day, and could find no relief till
I tried Dr. King’s New Discovery.
It took less than one bottle to com
pletely cure me.” (The safest and
most reliable cough and cold cure and

HARD WINTER AHEAD
SAYS GOOSE BONE
READING, October 21.
(Special.)—According to the goose
bone, there is a hard winter ahead.
Notwithstanding the fact that Elias
Hartz, the veteran goosebone weather
prognosticator, is no more, there re
mains in Reading and vicinity sev
eral of his ardent followers who stand
ready to take up his work where he
left off. They are warm supporters
of the goosebone theory and say prog
nostications of Hartz always came
true.
The goosebone prophet said to
day:
“According to the breast bone we
will have quite cold weather in the
latter part of October and for two
weeks in November. Then there will
be a warm spell, lasting for a few
days. December will be a cold month,
with an occasional snowstorm. Janu
ary will be a month of snow, hail and
an occasional cold spell.
“The dark colors on the end of the
breast bone indicate that February
will be a very cold month, and
there will he several blizzards. At
one particular part of the bone it is
almost black, which means that we
will have lots of snow and sleet. The
cold weather will continue way into
March, and we will have a very late
spring.”
His Dear 0!<1 Mother.
“My dear old mother, who is now
eighty three years old, thrives on El
ectric Bitters,” writes W. B. Brun
son, of Dublin, Ga. “She has taken
them for about two years and enjoys
an excellent appetite, feels strong
and sleeps well.” That’s the way El
lectric Bitters aflect the aged, and the
same happy results follow in all cases
of female weakness and general de
bility. Weak, puny children too,
are greatly strengthened by them.
