speech to the association, said:
"Our hearts go out in loving sym
pathy to' the wife and children of
the murdered Mureum and we de
mand the speedy punishment of his
assassins. In fact, we slioum de
mand the punishment of all assassins,
resident and non-resident. Breathitt
county needs for the next 30 days an
iron-handed czar who would clear it
of vile assassins and lawbreakers.
The government at Washington is
talking of remonstrating with Servia
for the assassination of its king and
queen. In Breathitt county they
Wiled a man who was worth all the
lungs and queens in Christendom and
it would be in poor taste for our
government to say anything to a for
eign power about assassination so
long as it is so prevalent in our own
country."

THE CZAR OPENS THE WAY.
TAX REFORMS IN PERSIA.
It In SnlU the Ancient SyMem of Col
lection It Ahout to He W licil
Out by the Sliuli.
It is reported hat the shah is
about to abandon the time-honored
oriental custom of farming out tho
taxe.u to contractors and have them
collected directly by the government.
This will put an end to an evil, the
greatest of maiiy, perhaps, under
which Persian traders and eiti.ens
have for many years groaned. Mis
government and maladministration
in oriental lands is almost invariably
connected with fiscal abuses and mis
management of the revenues, stiya
the London Times.
Particularly has this been the case
in Persia, owing to the peculiar way
in which the high olllcinls, and pro
vincial rulers were selected by tho
shah. On the Persian New Year day
all the great functionaries of state
and the governors paid their re
spects to the sovereign, and each laid
at the monarch's feet Ins compli
mentary offering of what is known
as "pish-kash" in current coin. Tho
governor who brought the biggest
bag received the fattest post for tho
entiling 12 months. The governor
whoso bag was considered too light
got nothing.
The whole arrangement was a proc
ess of "squeezing." The shah squeezed
the governors, the governors the tax"
farmers, the tax farmers the people.
"Pish-kash" was also offered by every
prominent and wealthy man whom
the sovereign honored with a visit,
and, as the loyalty of the individual
was gauged by tho weight of the bag
presented, it was not a good thing
for u Persian if the gift fell short of
the ruler's expectations. This cus
tom was abolished a little time back,
to tho great satisfaction of tho
wealthy and upper classes of Persia.
The change in the mode of collecting
the revenue, by which the tax farmer
is eliminated, is another step in the
right direction.
MUSIC IN HIS WORK.

"I Feel Like a New Man."
Nicholas Uttqtinllllotl In Ills Indorsement
of thu Nuw King of
Survla.
St. Petersburg, Juno IS. The czar's
congratulation to King Peter was
considered a public- expression of tho
unqualified favor with which the
proclamation of King Peter was re
ceived in oflieial circles here. It is re
garded as extremely unlikely, in view
of tho attitude of the Servian people,
that Bussia will support the sugges
tion that the powers should demand
tho punishment of the assassins of
King Alexander and Queen Draga.
Croat Jubilation at llnlcriiile.
Belgrade, Juno IS. Tho cabinet
ministers and other Servian ollicials
hero are jubliant over tho czar's tele
gram to King Peter, demonstrating
sympathy on the part of Bussia. King
Peter has telegraphed to tho czar
thanking him warmly for his mes
sage. A tinidiiato Whoso I'nruntn Worn Slaves.

nounced that Gen. Francis M. Drake
had pldged the university $3!i,000,
n nd stated that $100,000 would be
raised during the coming year. Me
morial university was founded as a
memorial to federal soldiers of the
civil war.

A Call to Ku form urn.
Denver, Col., June 18. J. A. Kdger
ton, secretary of the national com
mittee of the people's party, has
written a letter calling for a confer
ence of political reformers to be held
in Denver .m Monday, July 27. Mr.
Kdgerton explains that the call ia
not. an official one, but is issued by
.himself as an individual in the hope
that an amalgamation of tho reform
movements of the country may bo
found possible.
Ureal MuNlcal Festival.
St. "i.ouis, Juno 18. One of the
greatest lestivals of music in tho
history of the country was inaugu
rated last night in the liberal artu
building at the world's fair grounds
when 15,000 spectators listened to thu
opening concert of the thirty-first
national saengerfest, given under tin
auspices of the North American
Saeiurerbund.

"The negro splitting rails in the
woods mingles his voice in a well
blended manner to the noise made by
the maul." said a citizen watching
some street improvements, relates tho
.New Orleans 'limes-Democrat. "The
swing' of his voice matches the swing
of the maul and falls with greatest
force just when the wedge is struck.
The steamboat rouster hauls in a line
with a sort f rhythm that suggests
music, chanting the while. So it in
with these fellows. Watch them tamp
ing the asphalt with those heavyirons.
Observe the precision of their movements-.
Catch the sounds as the heavy
weights fall. If the enr is properly at
tuned you will eateh the music of the
bound and also the rhythm of the
movements. Out of this simple, manunl
labor those negroes get as much mu
sic as an ordinary drum corps would
produce.
"A few days ago I had my shoes pol
ished on St. Charles street. I was sur
prised to eateh the strains of "There'll
lie a Hot Time in the Old Town To
night' from the swish of the cloth
the negro was using and I diseoercd
that ho could faintly produce several
other such simple airs. In a barber
shop a negro boy used a whisk broom
on my clothes, and the first thing I
knew he was fairly sweeping music
off of my shoulders."

Mr. John W. Meng, 51 Jefferson Ave, Indianapolis, Intl., State Representative-
of Indianapolis Business College, writes:
" firmly believe that 1 owe my fine health to Pcruna. Constant travel and
change of food and water wrought havoc with my stomach, and for months I
suffered with Indigestion and catarrh of the stomach. I felt that tho only
thing to do was to give up my occupation which I felt very reluctant to do.
Seeing an nd. of Pcruna as a specific for catarrh I decided to give it a trial,
and used it faithfully for six weeks, when I found that my troubles had all
disappeared and I seemed like a new man. 1 have a bottle of Pcruna in my
grip all tho time, and occasionally take a tew doses which keeps me In excel'
lent health." John V. Meng.
TJJE most common phases of summer
