WILKINS' VOLUME OF STORIES The beer that made Milwaukee famous GOODWILL OF BRADLEY-MARTINS FUT.Le B,DS 0N BENNETT'S BASE MENT You drink some beers that cause bilious headache. Perhaps you think that all beers do. The cause of biliousness Is the lack of age too much haste to put the beer on the market. To ferment beer thoroughly requires a process of months. Without it the fermentation takes place in your stomach. That is the cause of biliousness. Hurried beer is unhcalthful. Schlitz beer is kept for months in refrigerating rooms with a capacity of 205,000 barrels kept almost at freezing point until it is well fermented. Schlitz beer is never marketed until thoroughly aged. 'Phone CIS. Eehllti, 719 South 5th St . Omh.

Ono of the most disastrous explosions on record occurred this Hftrrnoon hi lie electro-chemical works near Orlcshcini. where smokeless powder Is manufactured. Most of tho bollurs exploded. Tho nolsu was so tremendous tlint It was heard at far dlatanco polntu, Including Frankfort nnd Mayence.

Eighteen cylinders, each containing nbout 100 hundredweight of smokeless powder, were In tlio room where tho explosion oc curred. Troops were Immediately ordered to firlc shelm to prevent tho fire from spreading o tho largo benzine reservoirs nearby. Klre brigades from every place In the neighbor hood hurried, to the scene, but, owing to the dangerous natitro of the dlnantcr and tho fear of n renewal of tho explosions, the greatest difficulty was experienced 'n stopping the progress of the Humes. Only after five hours of strenuous effort whs ihe conflagration to somo extent controlled and the danger passed, so as to mako It possible to begin the work of extricating tho bodies.

Pepper of tho Wash- Ington Star. During tho Cuban rebellion ho spent many months on tho troubled islands, In city and country, In Spanish and insurgent camps, and since American ou- cupntion has mndo an extended tour of '.he Islands, reporting conditions as he saw them. Mr. Pepper Is acquainted with the Cubans prominent In tho construction of the Island tlon, he did not want to see the Idea of of the black chief remained on tho hill government nnd gives the following Independence modified by specific recognl- until Maceo, discovering their exposed sit sketches of the delegates now In Washing- tlon of this condition. Originally ho thought uatlon, sent them emphatic orders to :ut ton to consult with President McKlnley respecting tho Piatt amendments to the Cuban constitution: All the members of tho commission nro professional men, as it happened, lawyers, They may be taken as fairly represcnta- tlvo of their associates, for they represent all shades of opinion from extreme radl- callsm to timid conservatism. Domingo Capoto Is tho presiding ofnser of tho constitutional convention and Is one of the younger members. He was a law clerk In Havana when tho Insurrection broke out and Is now a partner In a lead- lng firm. He saw no military service, but was secretary of tho so-called revolution- ary government. He has Influential Amarl- ran connections who cared for members ot his family whllo he was In tho woods. He la a man of considerable force of character and Is what In tho United States would be called an extreme partisan. CaDoto Is Identified with the radical eio- ment. vet his radicalism has Its llralta- tlons. He never has advocated absolute soveranco of relations with the United Slater. Immediately after the American control ho was criticised by some of the Insurgents because he was alleged to have stated that after the experiment of lnde- nendence long enough to satisfy their as- plratlons the destiny ot the Cuban people was to become a part of the United Statjs. As a member of General Brooke's cabinet h drew unon hlmselt a good deal oi un- popularity on tho part of the Cubans, for one reason because of his tendency to ap- point his own relatives to of!Uo.

(I'opyrlght, M, by Frees Publishing Co.) LONDON, April 25. (New York World Cablegram Special Telegram.) Neither the social backing of the Astors of New York, nor tho goodwill of the Ilrndiey- Martlns and Mrs. Adolph l.adcnburg, can make a count. The chancery court decided today that the American claimant to the Dloorafleld Moore fortune, who called him self Count Itclnhold Edward Moore von ltofccu, is not a real nobleman after nil. The genuine count resides at Stockholm, Sweden, nnd Justice Joyce finds that be Is the eldest son of Count Carl von Rosen, formerly chamberlain to the king of Nor way and Sweden and the Nioomfleld Moore heir. This gives the Swedish count a tharc In, the t5,000,000 estate of the late Mrs, nioom field Moore of Philadelphia, who died of a broken heart In London, In January, 1S39. She bad financed the Kcclcy motor and its exposure killed her. She left something like ?3,000.000. Her daughter, Miss Ella Moore, married the Count von Hoscn of Stockholm, and the American claimant declared ho was the son and heir, the pretent count having been substituted for him. He backed up his claim by asserting he had been entertained by the smart set of New York and named Mrs. John Jacob Astor, tho Dradlcy-Martlns and Mrs. Adolph Ladenburg, as his friends. They confirmed in letters his social status. Cut the court flndu bis claims unfounded and calls them "fraudulent." Jim. Antor Soelnl iinniir. NEW YORK, April 25. (Special Tele gram.) This claimant for the nioomfleld Moore millions was a remarkable joung man. He appeared In New York in 1SS3 nnd Mrs. John Jacob Aster became his rocial sponsor. Once he had the honor of taking her to dinner, and of course this happy event made his soclnl standing un questioned. He wnh Invited everywhere. Mrs. Ladcnburg bid him to her social func tions and the Dradlcy-Martlns had him as a welcome gueit at a dinner In honor of tho earl of Craven, when the latter was their daughter's fiance. Ho had the entree at all the tmart clubs he was the Count von Rosen of Sweden, his father a favorite of the king, rear admiral In the navy and court chamberlain. Ilrlitn Land Him In .full. Suddenly he disappeared. He wns next heard of In 1S9S, when he appeared as a peddler In Mnrtlnsburg, W. Vu., whero money dealers landed him In Jail. Then he confessed that he was a real Count von Rosen of Sweden and he had been trying to make an honest living In order not to dis grace his family because of former esca pades. His grandmother, he declared, was Mrs nioomfleld Moore, the rich old woman of Philadelphia, who had $3,000,000 and helped Inventor Heeley with his motor. Her daughter, ho said, was his mother. Rep utable lawyers in West Virginia took up bis case. They wroto to Sweden. Imagine their surprlso when consuls and correspon dents wrote that the genuine Count Itclnhold Edward Moore von Rosen was living there with his wife, who was Miss Moore of Phil adelphia. , "Imposter, scamp, vulgar cad( wrote back the countess. "Then write to Mrs. John Jacob Astor and ask her of my convcriatlon with her at dinner about the Kcclcy motor," cried the claimant. Kverjliotly Jl jullllrd. Mrs. Astor confirmed this conversation in a letter, adding that she had known the countess when she was Miss Willing in Philadelphia. Everybody was mystified When asked if there wasn't something about his birth that had not been told the young "count" got excited and wanted to know who had Insinuated that. "Only Clarence n, Moore of Philadelphia knows all the facts," he declared. Mr. Moore Is Mrs. Bloomfleld Moore's son and her executor. Tho "count" afterward said that the present count was only a younger brother. Ho himself, he said, had noted for his scholarship and Is a profecsnr In tho university at Havana. Sentimentally, Dr. Uerrlel Is a radical, though In practice ho has little leaning to the revolutlona'y elements. He stands strongly on Interna- tlonal law nnd that was one of the grounls on which he objected to the convention de- fining specifically tho relations with the United States. Whllo recognizing that .n practice the interests of thlH country m ist be paramount over thoso of any other ua- It would bo enough for the constitutional convention to pass a vote of thanks to tho united States, but since then ho has been reported as modifying his position materially. Dr. Uerrlel Is also known tor his advocacy of an educational system and the elegies In tho Cuban constitution re- latlng Yi education are largely his vork. The oldest member of the commission and of the convention Itself Is Judgo Llorente. He Is In his 77th year and Is a delegate from the province of Santa Clara. He Is now an associate Justlco of the supreme court aud ranks very high among the Latin Jurists. Ho Is also n scientist of some note nnd Is devoted to chemistry and s- tronomy. It is possible that while In Wmh- ington he will Ilnd as much to interest ttlm in the Smithsonian Institution as in Jitt official mission. In tho beginning Judgo Llorento took a leading part In tho debates of the conven- tlon and Ho was a member or tne committee which made the original draft of the con- stltutlon. Ho was qulto prominent In he dlscursion over the preamblo when It wai proposed to strike out the clause Invoking the blessing of the Almighty. Ono ot the dramatic episodes was when he declared that he did not represent an atneistic pco- pie and that the convention had no rlgat to Ignore tho exlstenco of the deity. Thto was the view taken by a majority of tho members and his position was sustained. Judge Llorentc wns noi aoie io aucna many sessions of the convention because of III- ness.

But In "The Portion of Labor." now appearing ln Harper's Magazine, she has not only re covered hcrtclf, but lias climbed to a higher level of artistic attainment. Her new volume of "Understudies" also thows that n the short story her hand has not lost Its cunning.

The first volume of "Tho World's Beat Essays," edited by Judge Brewer of the United States supremo court, Illustrates the scope and suggests the purposes of a work whose projectors have not hesitated to make an attempt ambitious In its design and diffi cult In its execution nothing less in fact than to collect Into ten volumes of over 4,000 pages the great prose masterpieces of thought and style from the best literature of all ages of the world. That such mas terpieces of prose aro to be looked for In the essay hcarcely needs to ge nrgued. Except well known collections of English essayists which have not been brought later than tho first half of tho nineteenth century, no collection of this kind has been attempted. Tho field was nur, but the first volume of the Brewer collection promises that It will be adequately occupied when tho ten vol umes are completed. The Illustrations of tho work arc photogravures after the best artists, many of them being portraits by ueynoias, teiy, itoiuein and other cm uent artists. Tho book is manufactured in tho best style. Publliher and editors have done their best to meet adequately the demands of a great opportunity, and they do not feel tnat tne reader will havo a right to com plain of what they are ready to admit Is their best.
