£HAH AGAIN MASTER. Persian Nationalists Driven From Par- liampnt Buildings. Teheran, June 24.—After a bloody fight, whieh was waged around the Parliament building, the city was comparatively quiet last night, al- though the Cossacks were camped in the streets and squares. .> Coasacka and soldiers early in the morning surrounded the Parliament building and demanded that a num ber of persons whose arrest the shah had ordered be forthwith handed over to them. The parliament refused to. comply with this demand, and shots were fined at the troops, several sol diers being killed. j Orders were issued from military! headquarters that the parliament, building be bombarded, and the bom bardment commenced soon after 10 o'clock. While this was in progress bombs were thrown hum the Parlia-j ment building and the mosque build ing, disabling one o f the guns and wounding the gunners. Eventually the halls o f parliament were cleared,! but not before many persons had been killed and wounded. The bombard-i ment continued until 3 o’clock in the afternoon, when it suddenly ceased, j In the meantime the troops attacked the political clubs in that neighbor hood and numerous residences qf of members o f parliament, in which work they* were aided by the popu lace. The number o f casualties is un known, but it will be very large. The parliament buildings are practically in ruins. The firing was confined to Parliament Square, the other parts of the city being comparatively quiet. ■ Large numbers o f leading national ists, including priests and members of parliament, have been placed under arrest. ! WANTS P 0 8 T A L SAVINGS BANKS Oregon Man Put* # 2 6 ,0 0 0 in Postal Money Orders. Washington, June 27.—The largest bunch o f money orders ever presented to the postoffice denartmetot for re demption was received today from Mr. Reilly, o f Pendleton, Or. Tw o hundred and fifty orders for $100 each were sent in*by Reilly, with the state ment that he had purchased the or ders in May, 1007, fearing to place his money in banks. The orders, be ing more than a year old, cannot be cashed, and the department is re quested to replace them with a treas ury warrant for $35,000. This will be done. The postmaster-general will cite this case as a splendid argument in favor o f the establishment of postal savings banks. Such banks would not only have paid the interest on this large deposit, but would have saved Mr. Reilly $75 io fees which he paid for money orders. TARGET ORDERS SEALED. Atlantic Fleflt to Practice Under Un usual Conditions. Washington, June 27.—This vear’s .target practice of the ships of the Atlantic fleet at Magdalena bay, be ginning about November 1, will be attended with unusual conditions. Each ship is to have sealed instruc tions, to be opened after the estab lishment of the ranges. This will add to the severity of the firing, and will impart an amount of anxiety which will be appreciated as having its advantages. Before the regular target practice begins each ship will steam past the target and fire a limited number of shots in order that the pointers may get practice in shooting, but not until then will the ship’s crew know at what angle the vessel will pass the target or at what speed. As each ship frequently has a certain amount o f ammunition left over Which is not fired on the regular run for various reasons, the decision has been reached that this ammunition will be utilized to carry out special target practice with two or three battleships tiring against a moving target towed by another battleship.

SAVING THE WA8TE. Paper Makars Looking forfCheaper Materials. Washington, June 23.—The Ameriean nation has the reputation for wasting almost as mueh of its resources as it uses. Facts are often advanced to show that there is much truth in sueh a statement. A praetieal papermaker re cently sailed attention to a few o f the sources of enormous waste when speaking of the number of materials in America’s refuse heap whieh are worth while considering as promising substi tutes for wood pulp. The Northwest annually produce« a million and a half tens of flax stalks whieh are not now used for snytbing. The amount of waste remains after the twinemakers take all they want. It makes excellent paper. The farmers in the South burn or plow under 13,000.000 tons of cotton stalks every year That which is plowed under is not wholly lost, for it enriches the soil to some ex tent, but not so with that which goes up in smoke. Five hundred thousand tons ot fiber have leep adhering to eotton seed every year. It has been fed to farm stock along with th6 seed, and hits done the stock no good. Cattle and sheep do not like the fiber, and the seed cake is I etter without it. A machine bus been invented, which, it is claimed, will sep arate the lint from the seed.
