MORNING TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, APRIL 19, 19m "What are the chances of the TAIL END OF BLIZZARD Deaths of a Day funeral arrangements. Death of a Child.

Oil is cheaper than coal; it is lighter and easier to nandle, and gives an intense heat. Provided you have the right stove, oil is more economical, cleaner and less trouble. Have you seen the "BcrSciion MINER KILLED IN HIS CABIN Posse Searched All Night for Perpetrator of Brutal Murder. Oil Cook-stove The accompanying illustration gives you only a rough idea ol its appearance.

You really can't appreciate it until you either use it yourself, or talk to someone who has used it. It does everything that a coal range will do except heat the room. The New Perfection Oil Cook-Stove will do anything, from heating a kettle of water to cooking a course dinner, but it won't beat a room. It doesn't "smell," it doesn't smoke. It can't get out of order.

Light it and it is ready. Turn it down and it is out. Only a woman who knows the trouble Of carrying coal and cooking in a hot kitchen can appreciate what it means to have a clean, perfect stove that will cook anything, boil, bake or roast, and yet won't heat the kitchen. How is it done? The flame is controlled in turquoise-blue enamel chimneys, and directed against the bottom of pot, pan, kettle or oven, and only there. The flame operates exactly where it is needed and nowhere else.

With this stovs your kitchen is cool. The nickel flnish with the bright bluo of the chimneys makes the stove ornamental and attractive. Made with 2 and 3 burners; the 2 and 3-bumer stoves can be had with or without Cabinet. Every ilfalfreTeiywhm; If not roars, writ tot Swept Through Western States, Doing Much Damage. Chicago, April 18.

The tail end of the blizzard, which did thousands of dollars' worth of damage to crops and fruits in the west and northwest, is sweeping through Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and other western states, doing much damage and causing much suffering. Snow fell hare last pight, following a day of rain, but it was melted by the wet spots left by the rain and w-as only visible this morning on the dry places. The temperature is not considered low enough to do much damage. Reports from far western points which first reported the storm indicate that it has not spent itself. Many farmers in western and central Missouri have despaired of harvesting more than one-third of their fruit crop.

A steady, drizzling rain fell at first, but changed to snow, and then to sleet. When this subsided the temperature fell, indicating that the young buds would be killed. In the extensive orchards of Wardill and McCully, north of Macon, in northwestern Missouri, fruit men have lighted fire pots beneath the trees. Galesburg, 111., has suffered a loss in having its fruit trees nipped by the frost. A cold rain feu through out southern Illinois and hard rains fell in southern Indiana and western Kentucky, washing away many bridges.

Reports were received at Des Moines, which proved discourag-; ing to those who expected a large fruit crop. Sioux City, Council Bluffs, Webster City, Davenport and Clinton, in Iowa, reported freezing temperatures. Heavy snow fell in southeastern Iowa cao for twenty-four MONGOOSE TERRIFIES CREW Largest Specimen Ever Seen Keeps Vessel in Turmo'1 Ends Its Life in the Sea. Boston, April 18 A gigantic mongoose, whose equal in size has never been recorded in natural history, held at bay the officers and terrified the CMnese crew of the steamship Kennebec, which arrived Boston this afternoon from China, for three days. Again and again members of the crew would creep up behind the in furiated beast, hciping to seize him unawares, and in these encounters Second Officer Goodwin and several the men were savagely lacerated.

Crazed, as the officers think, by making his lair in a pile of Indian hemp, the ferocious animal resisted aitterarpts to capture him, and finally dasned headlong to its death over the side of the ship. IFor hours at a time it would re-matin in hiding. Then suddenly it would appear again and rush screaming thresh the dark passageways. Finally the Chinese sailors, filled with terror at the vicious "ibrown demon," refused to enter the hold of the ship. If you want quick results advertlso the Morning Tribune.

Huntingdon and Fulton county pa pers please copy. Mrs. Rosa C. Dunmire. The sad intelligence was received by H.

C. Dunmire yesterday, of the sudden death of his mother, Mrs Rosa C. Dunmire, which occurred at her home in Washington, D. yesterday morning. The message did not gjve any details as to cause or manner of death.

Mrs. Rosa Caldwell Dunmire was a daughter of Rev. Stephen M. Vail, D. a prominent member of the Xew York, East, conference of the Methodist Episcopal church.

He was a man of fine intellect, the author of several books and a pioneer in the movement for an educated ministry in the church of his choice. Into this home of culture the deceased was born CO years ago. She, in turn, was finely educated. At the age of 20 years she was married to Rev. W.

V. nnnmire then a minister in, thp Pen- tral PpnnevlvnniA rnnfprpnpp Intpr local preacher of the Methodist Episcopal church resident in Altoona. Four years ago they removed to Washington, where Mr. Dunmire died. She was well known and greatly beloved by the congregations whose parsonages were her home, as well as by her Altoona friends, and many who knew her years ago will now grieve to learn ot tier aeatn.

She was a devoted mother. In the true sense of the word, and the four sons and three daughters who survive her have precious memories, indeed. From her early youth she was a consistent Christian, using her religion in her daily life, and dying in the faith that had sustained her through her earthly pilgrimage.

George Azar, the confectioner who for years was located on Eleventh street near Green avenue, was murdered two years ago while on a visit to his native home, at Kisbin, Syria, and now comes the news to his wife, who continues to conduct the confectionery store on Eleventh street, that his murder has been avenged by a cousin, Elias Azar. Thomas Jabour shot and killed Azar in July, 1908, was arrested, convicted and sent to prison for a term of fourteen months. The deed that resulted in the death of Azar culminat-el in a feud springing up between the two families. The feeling became bitter and when Elias Azar and Thomas Jabour came together on the street recently they engaged in a pistol fight, with the result that the former shot and killed Jabour, avenging the death of his cousin. Azar was arrested for the killing and imprisoned to await trial.

The news of the shooting and the death of Jabour was conveyed to Mrs. George Azar in a letter from her father at Kisbin, received on Saturday. She and the many Syrian friends of the late George Azar believe that young Azar will be given his freedom when his case comes to trial. HIGH PRICE OF LIVING. It is the Worst Thing Republican Par-ty Has to Fear, Says Seth Low.

New York, April 18. eth Low, former mayor of New York, defended President Taft for his attitude on the tariff bill, praised Mayor Gaynor, a democrat and predicted that the high price of commodities, more than anything else, threatened the success of the republican party, in a speech tonight before the Republican club of which he was recently named president. He accepted the office tonight. Mr. Low sails to Europe on April 22 and he regretted that he could not be here to take part in the Roosevelt reception.

Concerning President lart ana tne tariff he said: "What we of the Republican club should do, I think, is to give to the president all the aid in our power to secure for him the appropriation from congress that he needs to give life and vitality to the tariff board appointed under the authority of the same act. If those who are criticising the president in connection with the tariff will help him do what he wants to do, it seems to lie upon the surface that more progress will be made under President Taft in the direction of permanent tariff reform than could be made in any other way."

He went on to say that he had been out of the coun try for so long that be had not been able to keep up on political condi tions and could say little about the present situation. He thought, how ever, that the; chances of the demo cratic party in the coming congres sional elections were unusually bright He was asked if he would consider any candidacy for the presidency. "I have said all I am going to say on that subject," be replied emphatically. "I think my position is understood perfectly." Mr. Bryan paid a brief visit to Mayor Gaynor late this afternoon at the mayor's office.

When questioned as he left city hall he said: "I have met Mayor Gaynor before; In fact he is an odd friend. I was very glad to hear that he had been elected and I have been pleased to note the favorable things said about his administration, but I am not surprised at them from what I know of the man." Asked if he thought Mayor Gaynor might be a candidate for the presidency in 1912, Mr. Bryan said he did not care to go so deep into the future. YOUTHFUL MURDERER KILLED Earl B.

Recolt was sitting at a table with his back to the door and had not time to turn around before the stranger began discharging a re volver.

The man was evidently bent on Killing Recolt. The first bullet miss ed, but with its discharge Recolt's four companions sought refuge behind the scanty furniture of the shanty. The stranger fired again and Recole fell. The other man then fired four more shots into the pros trate form on the floor and escaped. Word was sent to the police.

Her "influence" seems to be working splendidly, and she has a large clientele, but refuses to say whether "Little Bright Eyes," her pet spook prodigy, is receiving any more presents.
