The latest cult might be called the "music cure. and the high priest who has been conducting his classes through the mysteries of the new "wrinkle" In Inayat Khan, who holds the title of Tansen, or a champion of music of East India.

With his two assistants, Maheboob Khan and Mohamad- All Khan, Irmyat professes to demonstrate the. influence of Hindu music oyer the mind. "Music is a branch of philosophy In India," he explained, "and Its theory, and practice and powers of creating emotions I am prepared to expound. I call it Inayat considers hia mode of healing a religious one. His chief instrument is the veena.Uhe sacred instrument of No one but a Tansen may play the veena.

"By means of A certain melody there is relief for one who is anxious or angry or lovesick, or for one who is ignorant of the higher Inayat. Just what tune it requires to smoothe the course of love, the Indian professor explains only to the initiated, and so far there is none among his disciples who has openly confessed to having had the divine passion properly con ducted through the medium of the veena. Inayat hue indorsements from the Maharaja of Mysore, the Nizam of Hyderabad, the fiaekwar of Barodu, the "Umptydum of Yipillyi" and a host of other dignitaries. He's getting away with it. too.

To Improve Fifth Avenue. Less than four-years -age-the Fifth Avenue association was organized with a dozen members, merchants along the great thoroughfare.

President R. O. Monroe says, is due the fact that Fifth avenue is the greatest retail merchandising street in the new world and the. greatest residence street in. its uppor end.

To the same activity, too, he predicts that before many years the avenue will be un-equaled in the world's avenues of trade. "The matter of artistic and effective show-window illumination has received especial said Monroe. ''It has been the ambition of the association to create an unbroken gallery of window pictures all the way from Twenty-seventh street to the far northern end of the new shopping1 district. If this can be brought to pass, there will be a nightly exposition along both sides of Fifth avenue of rare and beautiful wares, tapestries, art treasures, curios, such as can be duplicated nowhere in the world outside of some of the great museums." 8olves Deep Mystery.

BRYAN'S VIEWS Mr. Bryan in the next issue the A Word Reformers; Oon't compromise" in -Don't try to please opponents of reform. Draw the bills as the reformers want them; it is time enough to compro mise when you find you have to. If yon start out compromising- you will have to compromise still more before you get through. Take the initiative and referendum, for Instance.

Reformers like the Oregon form; the opponents of the initiative and referendum will attack it at various points. There are three things that opponents may be expected to do. They will not attack the principle -the time is past for that-but they will want to- make the per cent for the petition as large as possible; they will want to limit the number, of propositions to be submitted at one time, a-nil they will n-slst that a majority of all the votes cast at the election -be required for adoption. The first objection is the least important, for while the' percentage required in Oregon Is good, it is not a vital matter just what percentage is required. The second objection Is more serious, for if a limit' is fixed the special interests can rush in enough unimportant propositions to exclude those that they object-to.

The third is most serious of all. It gives the opponents of reform the benefit of nil the ignorant, the careless and the indifferent. Why should the opponents of reform be Riven this legal advantage? Why hamper the people when they try to legislate for themselves? A plurality elects when we select a governor and members of the legislature to act for us. Why should not a plurality pass a law by direct legislation? If those who vote for the proposition outnumber those who voie against it, that is enough. Let the submission of the- proposition be thoroughly advertised, then let the law assume that those who do not vote are willing for the matter to he determined by those who do vote.

That Is much more reasonable than to count those not voting as if they voted In the negative. This is the most Important point to be guarded. Insist that only a majority of those voting on the proposition shall be required, T. P. A.

Urgent Appeal of Antis Have Had Some Effect With President Taft As a Result Expenditures for Armament Have Been Cut Fifteen Percent (By United.

Press.) Washington, D. Jan. 21. One of the most subjects before congress Is the plan for fortifying the Panama canal submitted by the board of ordnance and fortifications of the army. arguments of the anti-fortification men have induced President Taft to reduce the expenditure to be made for defense of the canal.

In August the army board presented to the executive a plan which proposed an expenditure of $19,545,843. As a compromise the president ordered the members of the board to reconsider their recommendations. Subsequently the board reduced their estimates approximately 15 per cent. They also decided that it would be sufficient to erect a cheaper type of emplacements for the guns. The barracks for the troops to be stationed on the canal were, under the original plan, to have" been constructed of concrete.

The second plan contemplates wood. The third point was in the distribution of the troops. Instead of scattering them widely' over the isthmus the board has concentrated the force 'and "rearranged the land defense plans to permit of quick mobilization of the various parts of the force at the different vulnerable points when danger threatens. "Since the date of the submission of the original report," says the fortitla-catlon board, "further experience has been had as to the cost of emplacements of the type of those It Is proposed to construct for the defense of the canal and as to the cost of structures of a type suitable for the housing of troops in the canal zone. Based on this experience, modifications have been made In the estimates of cost.

"These modifications and the reduction of the seacoast armament have permitted a reduction In the total of the estimates of cost given in the -report of August 12 of approximately one-third." The board recommends that eight 14-inch rifles, twelve 6-inch rifles and twenty-four 12-inch mortars be provided for seacoast defense of the canal against naval attack. Recommend Permanent Field Works. The construction permanent field works for the defense of the canal and fortifications against field attack by raiding parties is also recommended. The board believes these should be completed by the time- the canal Is opened. A permanent garrison is recommended for the canal zone, to be composed in time of peace of companies of coast artillery, four regiments- of infantry, one battalion of field artillery, and one squadron of cavalry.

This force Is to be augmented in time of war by detachments from the United States -ftheneer necessary. It is also recommended that the problem of the- land operations in the canal zone be referred to the war college for study." The cost of the defenses recommended by the board is estimated at This includes $4,081,500 for the emplacement of the defenses; for guns and carriages: for ammunition; $204,000 for search lights; $2,814,000 for the permanent post of the land forces. The board is unable to make a close estimate of the total cost of construction of the naval stations, it stated, for the reason that the scope of the sta-. tions has not been definitely. Indicated to it by the navy department, a In any event the principal point to be settled on those questions is the location of the dry docks, and that cannot be determined without examination and borings.

The board records its opinion that naval establishments provided with such facilities as the navy department shall consider necessary are the essential part of the defense of the canal, and should be provided equally with the projected land defenses. "It is conservatively estimated that the canal will be completed and in use by January 1, 1915, and it is quite possible that it may be completed before that date," says the report. "As it will require several years to construct and emplace the proposed armaments, the initiation of the work should not be deferred beyond the close of the present fiscal year." i 8trong Positions for Regarding the actual location of the forts, the report says that comparatively strong positions exist at both the Atlantic and Pacific for defense against land operations of an enemy. It is asserted that these natural defense positions can be greatly strengthened by clearing the ground, by the construction of good military roads for the quick transfer of troops one of the most important considerations in military opera tions -and by the construction of obstacles to impede the progress of the enemy. There is not, however, any immediate need for the mapping out of the military pliins for this defense until the construction of the forts and the emplacement of the armament Is well under way.

The war department Is now at work upon a military map studying the tactical problems presented because of the peculiar topography of the country. With the report of the board which was sent, to congress with a message of the president, there was concluded a letter from Secretary of War Dick- DRIVES OUT COLDS.

Som etirne Jsm possi ble to They Are Not Real Article (By United Press.) New "fork, Jan. "JlSlowly but surely the auffraglat movement in New York in assuming the militant char-McterlHtios of 1he i Kngliwh MtifTraget campaign. The New York advocates of "votes fur women" 'are not suffrageta.

Oh, dear, no! For that Implies fighting; and rock-throwing and Jousts with the po lice and jail sentences and a lot of other things that are rude and unde sirable. They are merely suffragists; women who believe In winning their tight by argument rather than by lore. All this is the theoretical difference between the suffragists and suffragats. Practically there Isn such a wide till ference, and the chasm Is being bridged every day. Just how long it will be before the New York suffragists be come the rampant suflragets of Lon ilon, it would be difficult to say, but the trend is.

undoubtedly that way. "There was sharp suffraget sklr-mlHliing in front of the Lyceum theater In West Forty-fifth street yesterday This is the Introductory sentence in a recent New York dally In a story of a clash between several hundred cuffragists and, anti-suffragists. The change In the tactics of the New York suffragists traceable directly to two causes; the 'Influence of Eng Huh sufTragets who have been prose lyting anions; them and the opposition of the 'national league for the civic education of women and other anti-Biiffnige organizations. Such missionary work as Miss Sylvia Panlthnrst, daughter of Mrs. Kmme-llne leader of the English siiffragets, is now doing in this coun Is bearing rich fruit, and it is noticeable that after every such visit from an English sister, the New York suffragists grow a bit more embolu netl.

But what Invites the Ire of the suf fragists particularly is the attitude and the comments of those of their own sex who are opposing woman's suffrage. Whenever you want a nice little row, just let two of these opposing bunches meet. It Tvas such a meeting that the quot ed newspaper sentence refers to. It was after a lecture by Richard Barry, a magazine to the women of the national league for the civic education of women, in which he described the "complete failure" of women's voting in some of the western states. His several hundred high brow hear ers, in the most complacent mood, were emerging from the theater, when a lying column -of suffragists almost stiff ragetswnveloped them.

The suf fragists carried yellow banners and shouted, "Votes for women!" "Down with Harry into the ears of the antls. The latter were rudely Jostled as they sought their carriages and limousines; and Were In no utv- rertain language that they werev 'tiat. ever the feminine for "Muts" is. -Mrs. O.

It begins in an insignificant manner, usually the appearance of a tiny sore being the only outward evidence of its presence.

But down in the blood the treacherous infection is at work, and in a short time its chain of symptoms begin to crop out. The mouth and throat ulcerate, skin eruptions break out, sores and ulcers appear on the body, the glands in the groin swell, and sometimes the hair comes out. Mineral medicines cannot cure Constitutional Blood Poison; they only ehut the disease tip in the system to smoulder and await an opportunity of breaking out afresh. The only possible way to cure the disease is to REMOVE the genus from the blood. S.

S. S. goes into the blood, and while removing the infection makes the tlood pure, fresh and healthy. This causes a general upbuilding of the entire system, and when S. S.

TAX Attorney General Martin Gives Opinion on Ivtooted Legal Point Property Owners Have Privilege of Paying General Assessments It has been decided by Attorney General Martin that a property owner resisting- the collection of drainage tax assessed against his land may pay his other taxes to the county treasurer and demand a receipt therefor, while wlth-holding payment of the. drainage district tax at his own risk of being penalized lor delinquency.

The. question came up from rawnee county In a letter sent by 8. J. the county a ttorney. One paragraph in the attorney general's opinion contains language which reads like a polite slam at the county treasurer or the county attorney, or both of them.

This wording refers to the action of the treHsurer in not accepting payment of the general tux bo-cause the property owner declined to pay the drainage tax with it." The attorney general says after ((noting several judicial authorities: "These decisions clearly recognl.e the principle that there Is somo discretion lodged In tho treasurer -In the matter of accepting or rejecting a tender of taxes properly mmle him. If his refusal to accept a payment of a valid tax deprives the county of the interest thereon, it appears to me that the rule ought to be that in accepting or rejecting payment of taxes he utilize all the available means of information and then exercise his bist Judgment In arriving at a conclusion as to tho proper course to pursue. 1 am confirmed In this view when I recall the fact that the law has provided him with a legal adviser in the person of a county attorney, whose duty it is to counsel lilm as to the law and guide him In the performance of his official acts." The summing up of the attorney general on the main question is follows: "I hold that a county treasurer would be Justified In accepting the whole of the general tax. even though payment of a drainage tax levied at -a subxe-qnent lime is refused, provided he entertains serious doubts of the validity of the. latter.

In permitting the payment of the genernl taxes the lien of the drainage tax Is not affected 'If valid It remains a lien and may be enforced In the usual way."

GERHARD OUTLINES MAIN EVEN1S OF GERMAN HISTORY. The German Family society gave the second of this season's entertainments on Friday night to a large and appreciative audience. Mr. H. Aden En-yeart of the university rendered some vocal solos: "Wenn Ich in Delne" Aeuglein" and ''The Sweetest Flower," which brought him liberal and well deserved applause.

Dr. Gerhard of the Lincoln Frele Presse next spoke in commemoration of the fortieth anniversary of tho founding of the German empro. He gave a short resume of German history during the nineteenth century and showed how eventually the dream of the Germans for a united Germany was realized. The members of the German department of the state university gave a play "Kin Knopf" (A Button), by Gus-tav Moser. Dr.

Schrag portrayed Dr. Rudolph Bruning, the absent minded professor who, on tho day after his wedding, lest he should fail in attention to his charming bride, sewed a red button on his house-coat ii order that he might be constantly reminded of his new duties. Unluckily this button had been lost at the wedding by a lady with whom he once thought himself in love and when this became known to his wife, things looked decidedly blue for a while. The other members of the cast were Mis Pauline Kohn, who played the part of the professor's wife. Miss Alinlna Zumwinkel and Mr.

Hermann Wlebe. After the play, which was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone, the Germanla Mannechor sang several numbers among which were "Ewlg llebe Helmat" and "Im Pokale." This Is the second entertainment which the German Family society has given this season under the auspices of the literary committee. It is planned to give one entertainment each month. While these entertainments are primarily Intended for the benefit of the members of the society, they are open to any German of this city. PIONEER DIES Charles F.
