FOUR KILLED BY FALLING WALLS Four Others Missing and as Many More Badly Hurt. BUFFALO WATERWORKS DOWN Cause of Giving Away of Structure Being Constructed of Steel, Concrete and Brick Is Not Understood. Buffalo. N. Y., July 1.--Four men are dead; four are missing, and undoubtedly are dead, and four others were seriously injured in the collapse of one of the main buildings of the new water works at the foot of Porter avenue on the lake and river front. The building was of steel, concrete and brick, about 200 feet in length and seventy-five feet In width. The gable of the roof was eighty feet above the floor of the basement and there were no intervening floors. Fully 100 feet of the roof and side walls went down. The building was nearly completed and only the tin workers, tile layers and glaziers were at work, not more than sixteen men. Four of the tile layers escaped by running to the north end of the building, which did not fall. Investigations have teen started by the mayor and the district attorney. No positive theory has teen advanced by any of the officials. The tile for the roof was being hoisted by a block and tackle to a scaffolding which rested upon the iron girders that supported the truss work upon which the roof was laid. Whether this platform was overloaded with material is one of the questions which the investigation is exptected to show. The contractor says that it was not. The four missing were burled under ten feet of debris and their bodies could not be recovered for several hours, NO THIRD DEGREE METHODS Ortie McManigal Says Nothing of Kind Was Used on His Wife.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE Killing the Birds. It has been noticed by a number of people that many small boys seem to find great pleasure in shooting whins, pigeons and other small birds which make the summer so much more pleasant and enjoyable. We are sure they do not realize what dreadful crimes they are thoughtlessly committing by their actions. But still it is high time that this sort of thing were stopped. It must not last for if it does, in a few years we should be blessed with no birds at all except possibly those who now are loved by some and hated by many, such as sparrows and crows. If you see some lad so thoughtlessly and really cheerfully taking the life of one of God's own creatures tell him what he is doing and ask him to refrain from such sport as that. We have merely mentioned this here and while much more might he said on the subject, we prefer that each one should consider the matter himself and do all he can to prevent the slaughter of the birds.

WHAT INCOMES WILL BE TAXED Salary of $800 a Year for Unmarried and $1,200 for Married Persons to be Exempt--Other Exemptions. Madison, Wis., June 30.--Wiscon sin will undoubtedly soon have an income tax. The senate refused to reconsider the vote by which it concurred in the income tax bill. The vote was 14 to 11 against reconsideration. This eliminates the possibility of the measure being sent to the people for final action and finally puts the income tax question up to the governor. Prior to taking the vote there was a short discussion in which the chief feature was the reading of a protest from Kenosha manufacturers against the bill and the statement of Senator Bishop that the workers were against the proposed law. The assembly bill was concurred in by the senate Wednesday night after a long and acrimonious discussion by a vote of 15 to 14 and this later vote finally ends the fight which began Jan. 1. Here are the chief provisions of the bill. If an income is over $500 the recipient must make a return to the assessor. If one is unmarried the income will be taxed when it passed the $800 mark. The tax is graduated on incomes starting at 1 per cent on incomes of $1,000 or any part of it and increasing ene-quarter percent on each added $1,000 until $12,000 is reached, when the tax is 5 1/2 per cent. Over the $12,000 the tax is 6 per cent. Corporations will be allowed exemptions on sums paid for salaries and wages if such corporations return to the assessor the amounts of such salaries and the names of those receiving them. In computing the tax and exemptions the income of husband, wife and each child under eighteen years is added, when all live together. United States officials are exempt so far as their salaries are concerned, as are pensions from the United States, salaries of members of the legislature, and taxes paid upon the business from which the income is derived.

SENATE GETS PAPERS IN CASE Matter Is Referred to Committee on Privileges and Elections, Which Is Now Investigating Lorimer of Illinois. Washington, July 1.--The receipt of the resolution of the Wisconsin legislature, requesting the United States serate to Investigate the election of Senator Isaac Stephenson indicates that the senate committee on privileges and elections has its work cut out for several months. The records in the case, containing a report of the investigation by a joint committee of the Wisconain legislature was received from the secretary of f state of Wisconsin and laid before the senate by the vice president. On motion of Senator Heyburn, the documents were referred to the committee on privileges and elections. Chairman Dillingham and seven members of the committee were engaged on the Lorimer case, so no meeting was held to consider the Stephenson resolution. It is probable that the case will be discussed early next week. Since eight members of the committee are now engaged on an investigation of the Lorimer case there are but seven members left, five Republicans and two Democrats, to make up a committee on the case of Mr. Stephenson. Should the precedent be followed by the senate in the creation of a special Lorimer investigating committee with the powers of a full committee be followed in the present instance, a committee of seven members, with .Mr. Heyburn as chairman, will be appointed to probe the Stephenson case.

Patriotism The stomach is a larger factor in "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" than most people are aware. Patriotism can withstand hunger but not dyspepsia. The confirmed dyspeptic "is fit for treason, stratagems and spoils." The man who goes to the front for his country with a weak stomach, will be a weak soldier and a fault finder. A sound stomach makes for good citizenship as well as for health and happiness. Diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition are promptly and permanently cured by the use of Dr. PIERCE'S GOLDEN MEDICAL DISCOVERY. It builds up the body with sound flesh and solid muscle. The dealer who offers a substitute for the "Discovery" is only seeking to make the little more profit realized on the sale of less meritorious preparations. Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only. Send 21 one-cent stamps for the paper covered book, or 31 stamps for the cloth bound.
