A I <ittie More From the Coyotes.
Belton, April 26.—It will be re-
membered that a short tlmtf ago the
Telegram ran a Story of the finding
of seven baby wolves by Lon Shat-
tuck Jr."with a later story from Hon.
H. B. Savage telling of what a"how-
Ilng success"' the one purchased in
his homo had been and extending
sympathy to the other six purchas-
ers of these pets.
The circle of seven coyotes seems
to have made a circle of common
interest among the purchasers and
each one has kept in touch with the
success of the othe.r with his or her
pets, and have taken the Telegram
reporter into their confidence.
Hon. Savage states that the one
purchased by his youngest son, Eurle,
csased to be a howler so soon as Mrs.
Savage discovered that the trouble |
came from cold. A large Jar of hot
water was wrapped up each night
with the young coyote and not a
sound was heard from it all night
long.
Clarence Hale reports that on wak-
ing up one morning and finding his
pet stiff from cold he secured per-
mission to place ft with a family of
puppies at the Robt. Naismlth home.
The coyote thrived in its new. quart-
ers and at last report from Hale had
NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 26.—At-
torney Charles Q. Trabue shot and
killed Attorney Harry S. Stokes here
today. They have been opposing
counsel in the so-called "tax payers
suit" Involving the probe into the
city's affairs. Stokes was chief coun-
sel for the tax payers in the litigation
and had been connected with it since
the probe began last summer. Trabue
was recently employed as special coun-
sel to represent the city. The tragedy
occurred in Stokes' office. Three
shots were fired, according to reports.
Death is said to have been instanta-
neous. ,
Much feeling has been aroused in
the prosecution of the tax payers case.
Recently before the commission hear-
ing the evidence there has been fre-
quent clashes between the two young
attorneys. The immediate cause of
the tragedy,* however, has not been
learned. Both young men represented
prominent local families. Stokes was
a native of Como, Miss., but was rear-
ed in Nashville. Trabue is a native of
this city and one of its most promi-
nent young lawyers. Both men have
families and both are Vanderbllt
alumni.
Harry Stoks was a brothr to James
S. Stokes, a prominent farmer of the
Midway community. The latter re-
ceived messages yesterday advising
him of the tragedy though no more
information than is contained In the
above Associated Press dispatch was
given. Mr. Stokes had not decided
late last night whether he would go to
Nashville, for funeral arrangements
had not been planned.

Iron Ore In China.
Tslnanfu. April 26.—Rich beds of
iron ore have recently been discov-
ered at Lalwu-hslen in Shantung
1 province, and government experts are
now investigating the deposits. I,aiwu
is about thirty miles east of the rail-
way connecting Tientsin and Nan-
king. and about twenty miles from
the important town of Taianfu.
A hasty survey of the iron deposits
resulted in an estimate that two
hundred million tons of iron ore of r
high grade are available. The gov-
ernment hopes to utilize this ore at
the Tehchow arsenal in Shantung
province.

I«dles Aid Ui Direct Movl®.
Belton, April 27.—One day of each
Week the Ladies Aid society will have
charge of the Electric Palace No. X
on Main street.
The ladies have their first "show"
Monday afternoon and evening.
The pictures are pledged to be pure
and of high class.
The special feature of Monday's
program will be the singing of Harry
Young of this city.
Local talent will be used for special
features each time the ladies have
charge.
This is a plan that has been before
several of the ladies' clubs of the city
and has been much talked of.
The ladies of these clubs are about
as familiar with the high class edu-
cational and Interesting films as the
manager of any theatre.
This knowledge will be at the dis-
posal of the Ladies aid and will be
used.
It Is not the intention to make the
theatre a dry, prosy place but on the
other hand to put on the very best
and most attractive program of the
week.
This step on the part of the ladies
has been made possible through the
courtesy of Manager Ellis crow.

War Retards Silk Industry.
Tokio, April 26,—Enemy subma-
rine activity in the Mediterranean has
practically caused a suspension of
silk shipments to Italy. About $25,-
000,000 worth of Japanese silk is
sent to Italy every year and the
cessation of shipments is causing
loss to Japanese as well as incon-
venience to the United States. After
being subject to finishing processes
In Italy a great deal of Japanese
silk Is forwarded to the United States
from that country. Prices on certain
grades have risen 200 per cent.

.ndigestible material, which is not
eliminated, form toxins and poisons
tvhich are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are in-
tended to suck in only nourishment
to sustain the body.
If you want to see the -glow of
healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising, a glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in
it, which is a harmless means of wash-
ing the waste material and toxins
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening
and purifying the entire alimentary
tract, before putting more food into
the stomach.
Men and women with sallow skins,
liver spots, pimples or pallid com-
plexions, also those who wake up with
a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, others who are bothered with
headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach
or constipation should begin this phos-
phated hot water drinking and are
assured of very pronounced results in
one or two weeks.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs very little at the drug
store but Is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, purifies and freshens the
skin on the outside, so hot water and
limestone phosphate act on the inside
organs. We most always consider that
internal sanitation is vastly more im-
portant than outside cleanliness, be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, while the
bowel pores do.
