The way Pabst secures absolutely pure yeast for fermenting beer proves the care that surrounds every step in making Pabst Blue Pwibbon Beer. To secure an absolutely uniform fermentation, Pabst takes a single cell from its millions of fellows in the drop of pure yeast, and from this one cell grows or cultivates the yeast required for each brew. Pabst BlueRibbon I The Beer of Qualityis fermented in hermetically sealed vats. From the time it is brewed until it is bottled it never cornea in contact with the atmosphere or human hands. It is then properly matured or aged in air-tight, coldstorage tanks. When ordering brr. &k fur Pbst Blue iiibboa. Made by Pabst at Milwaukee And Bottle only at tbe Brewery. Pabst Erewlr.fr Co..

FALUERES HIS TARGET
Naval Reservist Takes Two Shots at the President of the French Republic. HIS BULLETS BOTH GO WILD Attempted Assassination on the Anniversary oi the Sastile's Fall Done ty a Man Who Says He. Has a Serious Grievance, and Who Is Promptly Arrested. Paris, July 1.". The national fete of the destruction of the Bastile -was marred by a dastardly attempt cn the life of President Fallieres by Leou Mnille, a naval reservist of Havre, who, it is believed, is suffering from the mania of persecution. Maille fired CLEMENT A KM AND FAILIBRES. two sliots at the president, but did not hit him. He was at once placed under arrest. On account of the activity of the anti-militarists, who tried o organize a demonstration against the army throughout France, excep tional precautions were taken to safe guard President Falieres. Two Shots in Quick Succession. The attempt on his life occurred on Avenue des Champs Elysees while the president was returning to the palace from Longchamps, where he had re viewed the garrison of Paris in the presence of 1230.000 enthusiastic peo ple. Premier Clemenceau and M. Lanes, the president's secretary, were with the president in his landau. which was escorted by a squadron of cuirassiers. The carriage had safely emerged from the Bois do Bologne. where the anti-mllltarists had sta tloned themselves with' the intention of hooting the soldiers, and was de scending the broad Champs Elysees amid the acclamations of the crowds thronging the sidewalks, who were shouting "Vive Fallieres." "Vive 1'armee," when at the corner of Lesueur street Maille, from the curb. fired two shots point blank at the pres ldent in quick succession. HAS SOME "REVELATIONS" Dut Says He Will Tell Them Only to the Magistrate. President Fallieres was cool and col lected when the cortege stopped. The diplomats who were following the president's landau alighted from their carriages and hurried to the side of M. Fallieres. Finding that nobody had been injured, by the president's orders the cortege moved on. In the meantime two policemen seized Maille, who made no resistance, but the police with difficulty prevented the -irate crowds from lynching the prisoner until a cordon of reserves came up and conducted him to' the station. ' There 'Maille refused to give any reasons for his act, saying: "The reve lations I have are so grave and serious that I will only make them before a magistrate for transmission to the chief of state. It is a matter between the government and me. I am the victim of many villainies." Some of the witnesses of the shooting sa!d that Maille fired in the air. It Is believed that the man participated in the recent seamen's strike and that his mind had been unhinged by fancied grievances. It is believed also taht he aided in the revolutionary agitation of the General Federation of Labor and the anti-militarists. There is no reason to suspert a plt. The attempt on the life of President Fallieres probably will strengthen the government's intention to put a stop to the anti-militarists propaganda, which already is demoralizing the armv and becoming a menace to the republic. Maille appeared before an examining magistrate later and the authori ties onlv succeeded in extracting from him a rambling statement about fain ily persecution directed against him. It was in order to draw public atten tion to his grievances, he said, that he fired the shots. The prisoner ter minated the examination by anucun ing bis Intention to give no further explanations, ns be believed the mag istrate would do nothing to remedy his wrongs. Thirty-nine ringleaders were arrest ed for hissing soldiers who were re turning from the review. Other ar rests were made at the Place de la Concorde, where the League of Patrl ots held their annual ceremony. More Deviltry at Odessa. London. July 13. A dispatch from Odessa says that seven persons were killed Sn an explosion in a secret bomb factory in that place.

WAS 4 FALSE REPORT
Story That Commander Winslow Attempted to Shirk Duties on Dutiable Goods. TELLS THE FACTS IN THE CASE Says the Assertions Made in the Pres3 Had No Basis. jNo Hare Wines. Cigars or Curios in the Belongings He Took Oil the Charleston, and No Concealment. Washington, July 13. As a matter of justice to himself as well as to other naval officers similarly situated Commander Cameron McR. Winslow has written to the secretary of the navy a letter protesting against "the sensational articles which have been published in some of the newspapers of the country concerning alleged smuggling by myself at the time of CAMEIION ll'ltAE WINSIiOW. my detachment from the U. S. S. Charleston at San Diego. Cal., June 11 last." Captain Wiuslow's experience was similar to that of many other naval officers returning to theiir own country after a long cruise in foreign waters, in that he was charged by the press with having sought to evade the payment of duties on large quantities of dutiable goods, mostly luxuries like wiue, cigars and curios. What He Really Had. The facts are very different, accord ing to the statement made made to the department by Commander Winslow. He said his personal property packed in boxes consisted of his household ef fects, such as blankets, bed and table linen, towels, pictures, photographs. books and rugs (in all a considerable quantity and purchased in the United States), and part of the remaining stores which he had on the Charleston as necessary for the cabiu mess. As to Wines, Cigars and Curios. Says the officer: "I possessed no rar wines and no large quantity of cigars, nor did l have a single curio. Such wines and cigars as I had were bought in Xew York, and during the cruise the greater pa.t had been on board the ship approximately a year, and wero purchased at my expense for use on board tne ship as occasion required for private and official entertaining. principally official, and not for impor tation, or even for my own use on shore." NO CONCEALMENT ATTEMPTED Another "Special" Story Given the . .- Lie. by the Commander. Commander Winslow shows that so far froro making" any effort to conceal the landing of these goods, as was alleged in the press, they were as a mat ter of fact landed at the custom house under the eye of a customs representa tive and sent directly to the railroad station without any tnought that this remnant'' of cabin supplies would be considered dutiable. When he learned. later in the day and indirectly, to the contrary Commander Winslow in formed the collector of the nature of the contents of the boxes, adding that he diil not believe that they wero dutible. but that if there was the slightest question he preferred to pay the duty in full. He says he supplied a complete list to the collector, and paid dtity in any case where there was a doubt in his own mind as to whether te articles were purchased in Xew York or a foreign country, the total amount pall being small. Says Commander Winslow in conclusion: "So far as I am aware my bjxes were not opened: and furthermore there was no friction or misunderstanding whatever between the customs officials and myself; nor was there any e.ort made to conceal or to avoid payment of duty. I was treaed with courtesy by the collector of the port and his subordinates. "A commanding officer of a vessel of war must be prepared to do whatever official entertaining may be required, and unless the extent of such entertaining can be foretold, as well as the date of the officer's detachment from the ship, he is liable to have stores for which he may have no use on shore left on his hands. If the law exacts duty on such things !t would seem to entail an unnecessary f.nancitl hardship on the officer, particularly ns our commanding officers are not allowed table money for official entertaining as in the caso of foreign navies.'

HA1IIIIIHIGIIED
Interstate Board Makes Public It3 Long-Expected Report on Harriman Lines. WILL BRING HIM INTO COURT Charges Are That He Haa Violated the Anti-Trust Laws. His Sin Has Been the Elimination of Competition by Organizing Railway Union Under pne Head. Himself. Washington, July 13. A stinging ar raignment of P. II. Harriman and hia "community of interest" and "harmony of management" indiey, with an indictment of the Union Pacific for flagrant violations of the law appear In the long expected report of the In terstate commerce commission just made public. The Chicago. Bock Is land and Pacific also Is arraigned, and it will be difficult for that railroad. along with the Unlou Pacific, to escape severe punishment for what the com mission finds to have been utter dis regard for the laws of the land. 4 Violation of Law Alleged. The charge is made directly that th4 Union Pacific's acquisition of tha Southern Pacific and the San Pedra railroads was In violation of the law. and it Is expected that the department of Justice will proceed under the antitrust laws to compel the first named to restore the competition which tho law contemplated by disposing of Sti control over parallel lines which Khould be competing. Kqually as reprehensible, but on a somewhat smaller scale, has leen the policy of the Rock Island, which the commission finds to have eliminated the competition cf a parallel line by Its joint ownership of the Chicago and Alton railroad. Harriman Was Supreme. 'The Investigation showed that ia practically all the great transactions of this company," the report reads. "Mr. Harriman. ns chairman of tho executive committee, acted upon hia own intiatlve," and it adds, "it may fairly be said, therefore, that the policies and purposes of the Union Pacific have been those of Mr. Ilarriraau. The effect of the control of the Southern Facific by the Union Pa cific has been to unify and amal gamate the management of these two railway companies and their steam ship lines and to eliminate competition between then In transcontinental buslness and In business to and from ori ental ports." Pith of the Recommendations. The recommendations of the com mission are along the line set foith by the president in bis Decoration, day speech at Indianapolis. The ownership by one railroad of stock in another, the report says, should Dot ba permitted, and the commission urges that it be empowered to regulate tho Issuance of securities of interstate railroads. Prosecution of the Unioa Pacific nnd Hock Island Is proposed as a vindication of the law prohibiting railways from controlling parallel and competing lines. ARE YOU OVER NINETY?
