DIDN’T KNOW
’TWAS SO GOOD
Texas Lady Storekeeper.
Who Carries Black-Draught
in Stock, Has Found It
“Best Liver Medicine”
Obtainable
Barker, Texas—Relating her experi
ence with Thedford’s Black-Draught,
Mrs. A. L. Fromme. of this place,
says: “I had for some time used
. . . and other liver medicines,
which would nauseate and make me
feel bad. We have a store, and our
customers called for Black-Draught
so often I decided it must be good,
so thought I would try it myself.
“I began its use and found it just
fitted my case. It neither griped nor
nauseated me, was an easy laxative
and not hard to take.
"I had had headaches a great deal,
no doubt from torpid liver. The
Black-Draught would cure them. The
best way I find to take Black-
Draught is to take one or two good
sized doses until the liver begins to
act, then taper the doses to just a
pinch after meals.
“It will insure good digestion, do
away with the gas or bad taste in the
mouth, and is without doubt the best
liver medicine in the market. I have
found it so. I can recommend it to
my friends, for I believe fit will do
them good."

WILSON OFFERS
TO HELP MEXICO
FIGHT PLAGUE
VERA CRUZ, June 1.—((By the
Associated Press.) —President Wilson
has offered to send hospital ships,
nurses, doctors and medical ships,
to Vera Cruz immediately to assist
in combating the bubonic plague,
which has made its appearance here,
eleven authentic cases having devel
oped to date and five deaths result
ing.
The history of the outbreak ap
pears to date back to May 15, when
the first case is believed.now to have
developed. The victim in this case
died on May and the second victim
on May 24.
Up to that time it had not been
suspected that. the disease from
which the deaths occurred was of
the bubonic type. although the
symptoms now described indicate
this to have been the case. On May
27, another case of the same nature
appeared and upon thorough exami
nation it was found to be bubonic.
Since that date there have been
found the eleven proved cases noted,
live of the eleven victims dying.
Judging from the individuals at
tacked and the location of their
hbmes, it seems to be established
that the local point of the outbreak
is the warehouses of one of the dock
ing companies. It is considered cer
tain that rats transmitted the
plague, as recently a number of dead
rodents have been found near these
warehouses.
Vera Cruz already is completely
cut off from the rest of the repub
lic. Relief already has begun to ar
rive from the outside, however, a
train from Mexico City coming in
tonight with representatives of the
sanitary corps and material with
wltich to fight the plague.
In the opinion of the medical au
thorities the plague has not yet at
tained the character of an epidemic,
and they believe it can easily be
controlled by taking the proper
measures to combat it. Fumigation
of the freight warehouses already
has been begun, as has the cleaning
up of dwellings and the burning of
wooden houses near the central point
of the outbreak.
GENERAL DIAZ READY
TO GIVE UP FIGHTING
MEXICO CITY. June 1. —General
Felix Diazz, who has been carrying on
a revolutionary movement in the
state of Vera Cruz for some time, is
willing to return to private life, now
that the overthrow of the Caranza
regime has been accomplished, ac
cording to General Luis Medina Bar
ron, who arrived here yesterday as
envoy of General Diaz to confer
with General Obregon and Adolfo de
la Huerta, provisional president.
Men who have been expatriated
from Mexico will be invited to re
turn and help build up the coun
try, said Adolfo de la Huerta, pro
visional president, today, but he added
that those who had charges against
them would have to face trial. An
extraordinary session of congress
will be called shortly, the provisional
president declared. A thorough diag
nosis of De la Huerta’s illness, which
was declared this morning to be ap
pendicitis, has shown his disease to
be of a rather slight character.
In his statement to the Associated
Press, the provisional president de
clared he would give guarantees to
all political candidates and would
make efforts to improve the condi
tion of workers and to develop na
tional resources.
ADMINISTRATION OPPOSED
TO POLICING OF MEXICO
WASHINGTON, June 1. —Recom-
mendations by the Fall senate com
mittee that this country police Mex
ico unless a stable government is
established and Americans protected,
will be tabled by administration of
ficials, it was indicated today.
Such a policy, officials believe,
would be nothing* less than interven
tion, a move which the Wilson admin
istration has opposed.
Some officials point out that the
Fall report coming on the eve of
political conventions would be re
garded as a political move and pre
dicted that the Republican Mexican
plank would be written with the re
port as a basis.
One phase of the report—that the
present de la Huerta government
should not be recognized until it is
evident that it had the support of
the Mexican people—was agreed to
by administration officials.

POST IN SYMPATHY
WITH MISTS.
PAIMER DECLARES
WASHINGTON. June I.—(By the
Associated Press.) —Charging that
Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of
labor, had a “perverted sympathy”
for the criminal anarchist, Attorney
General Palmer told a house com
mittee today that in dealing with at
tempts of the government to rid the
country of dangerous aliens Mr. Post
had employed a “self-willed and au
tocratic substitution of his own mis
taken personal viewpoint for the ob
ligations of the public law.”
Mr. Palmer was testifying before
the rules committee, which is inves
tigating the official conduct of Mr.
Post in deportation proceedings.
"It has become perfectly apparent,”
the attorney general said, “that Mr.
Post’s course in all the deportation
proceedings has been dictated by his
own personal view that the depor
tation law is wrong, rather than by
any desire or intention to carry out
the law as enacted by the congress
By his self-willed and autocratic sub
stitution of his mistaken personal
viewpoint for the obligation of pub
lic law; by his habitually tender so
licitude for social revolutionists and
perverted sympathy for the criminal
anarchists of the country, he has
consistently deprived the people of
their day in court in the enforce
ment of a law of vital Importance to
their peace and safety. By his whole
sale jail deliveries and his release
of even self-confessed anarchists of
the worst type, he has utterly nulli
fied the purpose of the congress in
passing the deportation statute and
has set at large amongst the peo
ple the very public enemies whom it
was the desire and intention of the
congress to be rid of.
Defies Rules of Evidence
“He has defied the rules of evi
dence as laid down by our most re
sponsible courts, has cancelled hun
dreds of legal warrants issued by
his department, entirely -without jus
tification and in face of the facts,
has flouted the judgment of •• •om
mittee of the senate which has in
vestigated one of the cases before
him. has shown constant favors to
violators of the law and their at
torneys, refusing even common cour
tesy to the department of justice,
wihch is charged with the duty of
enforcing the laws, and in order to
distract public attention from his ob
vious failure to perform his own du
ties, has showered upon the depart
ment of justice a mass of charges
of misconduct in the hope that he
could put this law-enforcing depart
ment of the government on the de
fensive in the place of those crimi
nal enemies of the country from
whose activities our department has
sought to protect the government
and the people.”
Answers Charges in Detail
The specific charges made before
the committee by Mr. Post were an
swered by the attorney general in
detail.
Mr. Palmer said he had hoped “it
might never be necessary to indulge
in any criticism of another govern
ment official,” but that “outrageous
and unconscionable falsehoods” laid
before the committee by Mr. Post re
quired definite answers.
“It is not surprising,” he added,
“that Mr. Post, when the opportunity
has presented itself in an official
way, to render a service to those
who advocated force and violence,
should employ it to the limit. He
has always been sympathetic with
that sort of thing.”
Jjed Unconsciously
In answering Mr. Post’s statements
that he had cancelled deportation
warrants “only where facts war
ranted such action.” Mr. Palmer cited
numerous individual cases which he
claimed placed the assistant secre
tary in a position of "passive tol
erance and encouragement” of bol
shevik literature and propaganda. He
also submitted records of the depart
ment showing the particular persons
actively Identified with the spread
of the doctrine of the dictatorship
of the proletariat. Mr. Post continued
to cancel the warrants, Mr. Palmer
said, “even after we had produced
evidence showing the individual to
have been a member of the Com
munist party which the secretary of
labor had held to be unlawful.”
Mr. Palmer declared that Mr. Post
had “become a factor in the revolu
tionary plan.” but he credited the
assistant secretary with having been
led into it. “unconsciously.” He said,
however, that the attitude in which
he had pictured the labor department
official was one -which antedated Mr.
Post’s service in the government.
Here he quoted from editorials writ
ten by Mr. Post when he was editor
of “The Public,” a magazine which
the attorney general called “very
radical.”
Regarding Mr. Post’s assertion
that “with all of these sweeping
/raids, '-only three pistols have been
' found,” Mr. Palmer declared that
while the number of gunds found in
no way indicated the potential dan
ger of the aliens, department agents
not only found “scores of them, but
bombs and other implements of de
struction as well.”
Charges by Jackson H. Ralston,
counsel for Mr. Post, that the de
partment of justice had provocateur
agents in service who were engaged
in forming new communist local or
ganizations against whic.i raids could
be directed were characterized by
the attorney general as “deliberate
and unwarranted falsehoods.” He
said that some of the department
agents, in order to gain confidential
information, had joined outlawed or
ganizations, but he challenged “any
body to show that any one of the
department employes has ever or
gah’zed or has been instrumental in
carrying out the poll ■■ es or program
of «ny radical organization.”

Says Socialism and

SAVANNAH. Ga., June I.—Dr. G.
W. Dyer, professor of political econ

ing before the sixteenth annual con
vention of the Cottonseed Crushers’
Association of Georgia at its initial
session Monday, roundly scored
strikes, closed shop movements and
all laws that seek to fix wages for
laboring men as being tainted with
Socialism. .
The American principle of democ
racy in industry, he said, allowed a
man to work at whatever avo.-ition
he desired and at whatever pay he
considered just for his services. Un
der this plan, he went on, wages
are controlled by two great economic
laws, the law of supply and demand,
and the law of competition. Supply
and demand, he stated, would play
no part under the Socialistic plan,
the wages being set and imriiovable.

Daring Act of 18-Year-
Old Girl Thrills Crowd
Who Field Their Breath
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—Miss Ethel
Dare, an 18-year-old carnival per
former who has been rehearsing an
aerial act in Kansas City, climbed a
rope ladder from one airplane to an
other 1,500 feet over Swope Park.
The accomplishment of the feat was
possible after a week of trials un
der adverse weather conditions.
Standing on the upper wings of a
Canadian Curtiss plane, piloted by
G. 'V p armley, a partner in the
act, she caught the lower rungs of
a rope ladder dropped from the fuse
lage of a second plane fifteen feet
above, driven by E. L. Partridge, a
third member of the team.
Then she climbed safely to her
seat behind the pilot of the upper
plane.
Walks Upper Wing in Stocking Feet
lhe upper wing of Miss Dare’s
machine was equipped with a small
hand railing by the aid of which she
drew herself up from the wing be
low. A small rubber mat was fas
tened on the plane to give her a bet
ter foothold while she walked back
and forth across the wing. She Per
formed in her stocking feet.
Before the actual climb up the
ladder began Miss Dare seemed to
have trouble in getting out of the
front seat and past the terrific pro
peller blast, which swept across
the lower plane for several feet on
either side of the fuselage. But she
finally got past safely.
Pilots in Practice for Weeks
The two- pilots, Partridge and
Parmely have practiced the necessary
maneuvers for the change for sev
eral weeks. To “jockey” the two ma
chines into the necessary position
for the change has required much
practice.
The upper machine must not ap
proach the plane below, with the
wajting girl standing upon its upper
t°o fast. The ladder must be
within her reach and yet the ma
chines must . be kept far enough
apart to avoid a collision.
When Miss Dare left the machine
upon which she had been standing
and dangled on the end of the lad
der, an audible sigh came from
those who stood down below, wait
ing for the change to take place,
several women were among the spec
tators.

PITTSBURG, Pa.—After being fined
$a m police court, Miss Minnie Kay

WILSON TO DIRECT
CONVENTION FROM
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON, June I.—While
President Wilson will be unable to
go to San Francisco, the extent to
which he will make his influence felt
tn the Democratic convention is daily
becoming more apparent.
Events of the last few days show
clearly, the president’s friends say.
that he will direct administration
forces so far as any man can who
is not actually* on the convention
floor.
Some of the convention prepara
tions the president has made and in
tends to make are:
A direct wire will run from the
convention hall to the White House.
Arrangements will also be made for
Mr. Wilson to jet stories of conven
tion doings as reported by news
paper men.
Representing the president at the;
convention will be Senator Carter ]
Glass, who wrote the Virginia Demo- I
cratic platform which Mr. Wilson
has indorsed and indicated he be
lieves shoufld be the basis for the
national platform. Homer Cummings,
chairman of the Democratic national
committtee, is also one of the Wil
son force.
His keynote address was approved
by Mr. Wilson yesterday at a con
ference during which Mr. Wilson is
understood to have outlined at length
his view on the stand tfie convention
should take on various matters.
A number of cabinet officers, the
only persons outside of Mr. Cum
mings and the White House staff who
have seen and talked with the presi
dent lately, will also be at the con
vention. Senator Hitchcock is also
a delegate.
All these men are familiar with
Mr. Wilson’s views, and will be ready
to present them to convention dele
gates.
French Officer to
Investigate Slaying
Os American Subject
BERLIN, June I.—General Leon
ard, chief of the French commission
to upper Silesia, has been asked by
the American mission to investigate
the shooting of Arnold Heide, Ameri
can lecturer who was killed by a
French guard in Beuthen yesterday.
The only information which the
American mission has been able to
obtain thus far concerning Heide and
his presence in Beuthen was contain
ed in a report from the French mis
sion stating that they had vised an
American passport jn Heide’s posses
sion. The passport, they said, de
scribed Heide as an American citizen,
and was issued for a journey into up
per Silesia. The mission said they
had learned Heide left the United
States only recently, and planned to
conduct a campaign of propaganda
through lecturers in upper Silesia.
The American mission had no record
of his presence in the country.
The German foreign office claimed
Heide was a citizen of France, but
both American and French represen
tatives agreed he was undoubtedly
an American. The German foreign
office had joined in the investigation.
Only vague reports of the actual
shooting have been obtainable. They
said the French authorities stopped
a tram car on which Heide was rid
ing; that he was arrested, and while
disputing with the soldiers was shot
by one of the French guards. He
died instantly.
German Communists
And Nationals Fight
With Beer Glasses
LONDON. June I.—Riotous disor
ders are taking place in Germany as
a result of the political campaign in
that country, according to a Berlin
dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph
company. A meeting of the Demo
cratic party in Berlin Sunday ended
in a serious fight, it is said, commun
ists attacking Nationals with sticks,
beer glasses and chairs, and storming
the speaker’s nlatform. At a meet
ing held in Mecklenburg, Deputy von
Graefe, conservative, received a bro
ken arm and rib during a melee,
while the secretary of another con
servative meeting was badly mauled
and was found unconscious after
the gathering had adjourned.
Everywhere in Germany there is
great tension, the dispatch declares,
and several landowners are said to
have fled to Berlin to escape com
munist violence.
Man Carries Jug of Money
MOONVILLE, N. Y.—One after
noon this week Ira Shippey of the
“Buckwheat” district, entered the
Exchange Bank here carrying a two
gallon jug. He removed the cork,
turned the jug bottom-side up over
the counter and a stream of pennies
nickles, dimes and quarters ran out,
Mr. Shippey piled up the coins in the
different denominations and asked to
open an account.
It developed that Shippey, who is
a farmer, had 1,100 pennies, 900
nickles, 1,700 dimes and 400 quar
ters.
He stated that the jug was gget
ting heavy and that Mrs. Shippey
suggested that they deposit the
money in the bank. He said that
he and his wife had been dropping
the coins in the jug for nearly
twenty years and that he had no
idea that it contained $326,
Mouse Saves Miner’s Life
ST. LOUIS, Mo.—Frank Lucas of
East St. Louis is feeding the mice
in a mine. One of them saved his
life and he is the friend of all mice
from now on.
Lucas was drowsing on a bench
in the mine after eating his lunch.
A mouse ran up his trouser leg to
knee. He sprang up and for
ward. clutching his trouser leg to
keep the mouse from going higher.
At the instant a “clod” fell from the
roof, crushing the bench where Lu
cas had sat.
Later in the day another miner
was about to kill a mouse. Lucas
interceded. “Don’t kill it.” he said,
“one of them saved my life.” Then
he told what had happened.
Cry of “Mad Dog” Routs
Bogus Beggar; He Beats It
MINNESOTA, Minn. Everybody
knows that necessity is the mother of
invention.
But it remained for two police
men to prove that necessity is also
the mother of locomotion —and that
they themselves were “miracle men.”
Patrolmen Forman and Leighton
came upon Roy Patterson, transient,
pursuing a mendicant trade, his face
tense with a show of suffering, and
reaping a harvest of coins.
“Mad dog!” they cried together.
“Mad dog!”
Patterson jumped to his feet and
fled —fled with long and healthy
strides. The policemen fled in pur
suit.
“Ninety days in the workhouse for
begging on the streets.” was the de
cision of Judge Montgomery in mu
nicipal court.

“Beautiful Eyelashes and Eye
brows, Beautiful Figure
Merely a Question of Will
ingness to Try.”
Superfluous Hair, Pimples and Blackheads
Disappear “Like Magic,” Say Letters
: a
This clever woman has perfected a method sim
ple and yet “marvelous” in the opinion of hundieds
of sister womcji, and the result has brought a won
derful change m her facial charm. “In a single
night,” says Helen Clare, "I have sensed the work
ing of my method, and for removing wrinkles and
developing the form, reports from nearly every state
in the Union are even more pronounciid than my
own—and rapid.”
In an interview Helen Clare said: “I macle my
self the woman that lam today. I brought about
the wonderful change in my own appearance, and
there are hundreds of my friends who know how I
did it (in a secret, pleasant, quiet, yet harmless man
ner). My complexion today is as clear and fair as
that of a child. My figure, formerly almost scrawny,
I have developed into a beautiful bust and well de
veloped form. Thin, scrawny eyelashes and eyebrows,
so poor they could scarcely be seen, have become
long, thick and luxuriant: and by my oven method."
Referring to pimples, blackheads and superfluous
hair, Helen Clare continued: “I banished mine in my
own way and by my own method, using nothing but
my own simple home treatment, which any other
woman can now have the personal benefit of and do
as well as I have done “if”—“if”—“if”—they will
only make the effort and have even a little, teeny
bit of faith in themselves as well as in me.”
Hundreds of women are so delighted with the re
sults from Helen Clare’s methods that they write
her personally the most enthusiastic letters. Here
are extracts from just two:
“Thank you for what your Beauty Treatment has
done for me. It has cleared my face of blackheads
and pimples. My complexion is as smooth as a child’s
now. It will do all you claim.”
“And your treatment for removing wrinkles fa
wonderful—removed every wrinkle from my face.”
