WASH1XGTOX, Feb. To prevr-nt the loss of life by catastrophes at sfa mich as so nearly occurred when the linor Republic went down recently, the ITesi (lnt wi:t to Congress today a message uruiiiR thrt passage of a Mil similar to that Introduced by Representative Burke, of Pennsylvania, requirinc; the equipment of ocean-goicj? veistla with wireless tele srrapli apparatus. Befora sodding the message the Presi dent conferred with Mr. Burke on the subject. The President had been advised by the Commissioner of Navigation that jn his opinion ui-h legislation was urgent ly demanded and lie ureed in - strong language the passage of this or a similar bill. The message follows: , AVIreless as Life-Saving Device. "To the Senate and House of Represen tatives Your attention is invited to re cent events which have conclusively dem onstrated the great value of radio-telegraphy, popularly known as 'wireless teleg raphy,' as an instrumentality for the preservation of life at sea. "While the honor of the first practical application of the scientific principles in volved may belong to another country, it is gratifying to know that our inven tors have been quick to seize upon and develop the idea and that several ,ys terns of approved scientific merit and practicability have been put Into opera lion in the United States. 'Furthermore, through the liberality of Congress and the Intelligence and in dustry of the Navy Department, our Atlantic, Gulf and Pacilic Coasts are eouinped with a chain of shore, stations. designed primarily tor the National de fense, but capable of receiving and trans mitting messages by any of the systems of wireless telegraphy now In general use. Kven our distant insular territories and Alaska are so equipped. So far as our own country is concerned, steps have thus been taken effectually to prevent the establishment of a monopoly in the practical use of the new applied art. Require "Wireless on Steamers. I deem It highly desirable that the Congress before adjournment snoum en act a law requiring that with certain limitations, such as determined by what the Government of the United States has already done and by what prudent and progressive shipowners have already found practicable, that all ocean-going steamships, carrying a considerable num ber of passengers on routes where wire less installations would be useful, should be required to carry sufficient radio-tele graph installations and competent opera tors. "The subject is now under considera tion by the Congress and I am advised legislation to effect the same general purpose is under consideration abroad. Our Interest in its enactment is keen on account of the great number of steer age as well as cabin passengers w ho an nually arrive at and depart from our ports. What we have already done along practical business lines warrants '. the United States in being first among na tions to enact a statute requiring the use of this safeguard of human life."

Army Kifles Fired With Device and Heport Is No Louder Than Hand-Clap. NEW YORK, Feb. 8. The first public demonstration of the new Maxim gun silencer was given here today by its inventor, Hiram Percy Maxim. The device is a little cylindrical affair, barely six inches long and about an Inch in diameter which fits snugly in the muzzle of any' gun. United States Army rifles and other powerful guns were fired with the anti-noise attachment and the resultant report was scarcely louder than a mild handclap. Mr. Maxim declared the device could be applied to heavy artillery and just as effectively pilenco cannon. The inventor exploded the theory that the new silencer could be useful to as sassins and murderers. The sharp click which the bullet made in cleaving the air would give warning enough, he said. Its advantage in ganio hunting would be considerable, he declared, as the game would be unable to locate the hunter. BEEFSTEAK CHOKES POET Hard of Maine Disaster Meets Death in Prosaic Way. SHERIDAN.

IT FOR DYSPEPTICS Proper Diet, Plenty of Time for Eating and Rest Will Ours Most Cases Unless the Blood-Supply Is Deficient. Drugs play very little part in the modern treatment of dyspepsia. From a list of articles easily digested the patient selects those that most appeal to the appetite, avoids hasty eating and rests after each meal by lying down for a time if circumstances permit. Then, unless the supply of blood to the stomach is deficient, nature works the cure. The cure of Mrs. Jennie Temple, of No. 106 North Main street, Fond du Lac. Wis., of stomach trouble by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills was due to their power to build up and purify the blood. She says: "I take great pleasure in letting others know of the great benefit I have received from Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I was a sufferer of stomach trouble, caused by overwork, for about ' two years. My appetite was very poor and I could not eat much of anything. No matter what I ate. my stomach became sour and gau would form on it, causing shortness of breath and affecting my heart. I had to diet and eat only the lightest food. For montlis I did not know what a good night's rest meant. I had frequent dizzy spells and would faint- at the least excite ment. My head ached almost continu ally and my heart action was slow and irregular. I was weak and thin and in every way was extremely wretched. At one time I was confined to bed for three weeks. "I had begun to despair of getting well as I had been treated by many doc tors and srjent a great deal of money in medicines and liad received little or no ibelp. Finally my sister became alarmed at my failure to get well and begged me to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial. Just to humor her I bought four boxes of the pills. Before I had taken the pills a month I felt much better, both men tally and physically. My nerves became Btrouger, my heart action was more steady and the distressing symptoms were lessened. My appetite increased and I soon became well and strong. Since using the pills I have regained my weight. I 6till take a few doses of the pills occasionally to' tone me up. I can truthfully say that I think Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the very best medicine any person, suffering as I did, can take."

Some Interesting Information for Young Mothers How to Guard Against the Disease. The great danger from croup is fully re-' alized by most mothers of young children. There are many, however, who do not know that an attack of croup may be prevented by proper treatment as soon as the first symp toms appear. The first indication of an attack of croup is hoarseness. The child becomes quite hoarse; this is followed by a rough cough thnt has something of a metal lic sound and has been compared to the crowing of a cock. Give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy according to the printed directions with each bottle as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough appears, and it will prevent the attack. Jt is, in fact, a certain cure for croup, and has never been known to fail, but it is better and safer to give the remedy be fore the attack of croup is fully developed. It then saves suffering for thechild and anx iety for its parents. There is no danger in giving this remedy freely, as it contains no opium or other narcotic It is the standby and sole reliance in many thousands of homes and never disappoints those who de pend upon it. There are women who took this remedy in childhood, now giving it to their grandchildren, and with the same uni form success. It always cures and is pleas ant to take. i!He!
