As a matter of fact, I do not know
the boy who Is alleged to have made a

mentioned until this thins came out in
the newspapers.

NSW YORK, Nov. 24. Guy Roche, a
sporting man. who killed "Sheeny George"
Levy, nine years ago, was shot and prob
ably fatally wounded late this afternoon
in Broadway, between Thirty-flfth and
Thirty-sixth streets, while the avenue was
thronged with promenaders.
Stewart Felton, known as "Big Frank."
also a sporting man, was arrested, charged
with having fired the shot. He denies the
charge. Although he was told be would
die, Roche refused to say that Felton shot
him, and declared that if he lived he
.would settle his account himself.
The shooting occurred in the midst of
a crowd that filled the sidewalk, and im
mediately there waa wild excitement.
Felton turned and dashed through the
crowd, followed by hundreds of men and
women, who shouted for the police. Run-J
ning to Seventh avenue, Felton entered a
saloon and was there arrested. He was
taken to where Roche lay and an effort
was made to have the wounded man iden
tify him.
"Leaae it to me; if I die. all right: if I
live, I will make good," was all Roche
would say.
Roche was hurried to a hospital, where
it was said his condition is critical. By
this time the crowd had grown to such
proportions that reserves had to be called
before Felton could be taken to a police
station. There two witnesses said they
saw Felton Are two shots the instant be

Felton is said to have come from Chi
cago several years ago. Koche is 35 years J

pardoned after erving four years. At the

St. Louis Exposition Commissioners
Have Rolled In Clover for Years.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Nov. 24. The St. Louis Exposition
is to close its gates within a very few
days and the assumption is that a short
time thereafter the "Louisiana Purchase
Exposition Commission" will cease to be.
This Commission has attracted some at
tention since the days of its creation
nearly four years ago, not by what it has
accomplished, not by the activity of its
members, but rather for what it nas not
accomplished and for the noted Inactivity
of its members.
This Commission holds the palm for use
less bodies authorized by act of Congress
or created by direction of the President.
It has been one of the little luxuries that
went with the great St. Louis Fair. -It
cost the Government Just $45,000 a year, or
In the neighborhood of $170,000, during the
entire period of its existence. ' It made
practically no return.
When this Commission was created It
was recognized as a mere provision for a
lot of political lame ducks, most of whom
were turned out of Congress on Marcn 4.
1901. Thomas H. Carter, chairman of the
Commission, had been Senator from Mon
tana. John M. Thurston had been Senator
from Nebraska: William Lindsay had been
Senator from Kentucky, and George w.
McBrlde Senator from Oregon. Two other
members had been members of the House
of Representatives, and the others were
picked up promiscuously, according to the
amount of pull they couia command.
About-all the members of -the Commis
sion have done since the day of their ap
pointment has been to draw their salaries
with studied regularity, ana to present,
themselves, well dressed and in good hu
mor, on state" occasions. They have spent
more or less time at St. Louis, but the
actual work they did to promote the Ex
position could have been performed by a
single man on moderate salary and he
would not have been very busy.
This Commission was about the limit in
Its line, yet it carried $5000 a year to nine
politicians, of both parties, wno naa met
wth reverses In their own states. What
most of these men will do without their
$5000 per is painful to speculate on. Proba
bly Tom Carter, chairman or ine wm-
mission, will be sent back to tne senate.
but there is no such outlook opening up
for the others. It looks very much as If
they would, have to turn in and work, or
lso dive, on; eomo of the funds they must
hav stored away during the past lour
years, when they sat back, drew $5000 a
year, and did nothing.
MEMORIAL TAKEN TO CZAR.
Document Drafted by Zemstvos Pre
sented by Interior Minister.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 24. Interior
Minister Svlatopolk-Mirsky went to the
Tsarsko-Selo palace today to present
the Zemstvo memorial to Emperor
Nicholas.
The situation is extremely delicate.
Two incidents have occurred, both of
which militate against the Liberals
and Increase the difficulty of Prince
Svlatooolk-Mlrsky's position. Prince
Mestlchersky. editor of the Grach Daln,
who is head of the reactionary press.
this morning unr-asked his batteries,
attacking the Interior minister in such
fashion for his liberal tendencies that
Prince Svlatopolk-Mirsky, for the first
tlmo since he assumed tne ministry.
ordered the confiscation of the issue.
On .he strength of the Influence
behind such an attack lies the real
significance of Prince Mestichersky's
act. At the same time, from the op
posite direction, the Nasha Zlesn. (Our
Life), a new Radical paper, author
ized by Minister Svlatopolk-Mirsky, In
dulged in a direct attack on the Em
peror, with the result that the minister
ordered the suspension of the publi
cation. Tho action of this paper Is
considered to bo very unfortunate, as
It places a powerful weapon in the
hands of Prince Sviatopolk-Mlrsky's
enemies. Many of the minister's
friends arc Inclined now to believe that
the Zemstvos went too far and have
jeopardized the position of their best
friend. Prince Ukhtomsky, editor of
the Vledomosti. said to the Associated
Press:
"The duty of all friends of a Liberal
regime is to uphold and sustain Prince
Sviatopolk-'Mirsky in every possible
way. His retirement would be a great
misfortune.
Thero was some talk this afternoon of
an offer on the part of the government to
compromise with the Zemstvos by giving
them a voice In the Council of the Em
plre. which is the lawmaking body. The
proposition is to elect two members of
each Zemstvo to sit in the Council and
participate in its deliberations, but not
to vote. Such a plan, it is pointed out.
while not giving the Zemstvos a share in
the lawmaking, would insure the presenta
tions of the views' of the provinces on all
laws enacted.
INTERESTING, IF TRUE

One grain of the active principle in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
3k0 grains of meat; eggs or other whole
some food, and this claim has been proven
by actual experiment which anyone can
perform for himself in the following man
ner: Cut hard boiled eggs into very
small pieces, as It would be if masticated,
place the egg and two or three of tablets
in a bottle or jar containing warm water
heated to 88 degrees (the temperature of
the body) and keep it at this temperature
lor three and one-half hours, at the end
of which time the egg will be as com
pletely digested as It would have been in
the healthy stomach of a hungry boy.
The point of this experiment is that
what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do
to the egg in the bottle it will do to the
egg or meat In the stomach and nothing
else will rest and invigorate the stomach
so safely and effectually. Even & little
child can take Stuart's Tablets with
safety and benefit if its -digestion Is weak
and the thousands' of cures accomplished
by their regular dally use are easily ex
plained when it is understood that they
are composed of vegetable essences,
aseptic pepsin, diastase and Golden Seal,
which mingle with the food and digest it
thoroughly, giving the overworked stom
ach a chance to recuperate.
Dieting never cures dyspepsia, neither
do pills and cathartic medicines, which
simply irritate and inflame the intestines.
When enough food Is eaten and prompt
ly digested there will be no constipation,
nor in fact will there be disease of any
kind, because, good digestion means good
health in every organ.
The merit and success of Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets are world wide and they
are sold at tho moderate price of SO cents
for full sized package in every drug store
in the United States and Canada, as well
as in Europe.

ferryman between this city and Sarnia,
Ont., .which Is directly across the St.

Ferryman Briggs left the Port Huron
dock with six passenger in his rowboat.
A heavy sea was running and the boat

her. Ferryman Briggs and two passen
gers saved themselves by clinging to the
overturned boat, while the other four pas
sengers were drowned.

Richards Favors Eliminating Farm
ing Tracts From Reserves.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Nov. 24. Land Commissioner
Richards urgently recommends the
passage of a bill now pending' before
Congress, throwing open to agricultu
ral entry all lands within forest re
serves that are of such character as
can be farmed: He thinks such a law
would tend to put to -good use lands
that now go to waste.
Another bill, now pending, author
izing forest officers to make arrests for
violation of the laws and regulations
relating to forest reserves, is also rec
ommended for passage. The absence of
such authority has had a tendency to
handicap the very men entrusted with
the care of great reserves.
The Commissioner also recommends
that Congress enact adequate legisla
tion which will tend to harmonize state
legislation upon tho subject of protec
tion of game, and fish within forest re
serves, without creating a divided Jur
isdiction over such reserves, and which
would not encroach upon the rights of
tne states to control the game and fish
within their respective boundaries.
A considerable number of permits
nave been Issued to persons of un
doubted character and responsibility
authorizing them to instill and operate
sawmius witnin forest reserves where
conditions seemed to warrant. The re
sults have Justified such action, the
ummiesioner conciuaes. so far as
known, not one case has resulted un
fortunately, but on the contrary the
practice of locating- such -mills -near
the cutting area In sale cases has tend.
ed to promote a more economical use of
the timber, better facilities for suddIv
ing the products to the consumer, and
a more satisfactory understanding with
an concerned. This Dractlce ha re
sulted in more careful methods in the
management and control of fires, and
has furnished a corps of trained as
sistants in .cases where fires have at
tained proportions beyond the control
or the forest officers.
The Government last year realized
$58,436 from the salo of timber within
forest reserves, and has applications on
hand for large adidtional quantities.
The timber sought and sold has been
largely deaa. or" Infected with insects
making its early destruction certain.
Both classes of timber are undesirable
in the reserves, and the Government
is glad to sell It. even at low nrieex.
People are rapidly coming: to under
siana mo iree-use permit system in
procuring, timber needed for individual
use or settlers, miners, prospectors and
resiaents. ior firewood, fenclnsr. build

some dissatisfaction expressed because
of delays In securlnc thARn Tv-n.if.
but In most cases the delay has been
