"SIBERIAN WOLVES" FIRST IN BIG RACE Make Record Over Snow and Ice In All-Alaska Dog Race; Allan Second Nome, Alaska, April 17.—John Johnson, holder of the record for the 412 mile all-Alaska oweep stake dos team race, became the winner in 191-4 classic when he drove his 18 "Siberian wolves" into Nome at three minutes after six o'clock last night, having covered the 412 miles over the snow trail from Nome to Cadle and return in eighty-one hours and three min utes. A A. (Scotty' Allan, driver of the Allan-Darling team of 18 malaniutes, is still on the trail, but will finish sec ond. Fred. Ayer with his team of fourteen foxhounds will finish third. The "Siberian wolves" are a cross between the Alaska working dog and the Siberian wolf. They have the agility and endurance of the wolf and the faithful intelligence of the Alaskan dog. They are light in color, either white or gray, with a Bhaggy coat. Johnson's dogs are carefully se lected, the driver himself making an nual trips to the east coast of Sibem to obtain material for his team. Hs trains his team by constant work on the trail, making long trips to camps in the country surrounding Nome and watches the work or the animals even more closely than a jockey watches his mount. Although this is the first time John son has won a sweepstakes ra<Je since his team set the record four years ago, he has always been considered a dan gerous competitor. Three years ago he was beaten by Scotty Allan after jhe was stricken with snow blindness. Two years ago he was unable to drive, being icebound on the Siberian shore, where he had gone In the early Fell to obtain fresh dogs, and last year he finished second.

W. ' Moyer, former chairman of the Demo cratic committee of Schuylkill county and one of the leading lawyers in Pottsville, has formally renounced his party because of the record of the Wilson administration and has en rolled himself with the Pennsylvania Protective Union to work for the re -1 turn of United States Senator Boles Penrose. In a scathing arraignment of the party with which he has been affiliated since early manhood Mr. Moyer de clares that "it is about time to join hands with forces having the national i welfare more at heart." "I have been an ardent Democrat for many years past." Mr. Moyer writes to James Dobson, president of the Pennsylvania Protective Union, •believing that in the success of that party the welfare of the masses would be enhanced far more than they would be under a continuous administration of our opponents. "But for some time past I have been watching the doings of the present ad ministration with serious misgivings and fear, until finally when Mr. Wil son repudiated the platform and pro fessions of his party upon which he was elected and his personal endorse i meat thereof, and proposes to turn over the sovereign rights of our coun try and its Internal affairs with respect to the Panama Canal. I have decided it i:! about time to Join hands with foices having the national welfare more at heart. "I fully agree with you that this is one of the most critical periods in American history, no less so than the epoch which marked the birth of the Republican party. The senseless, per nicious and reprehensible efforts of the present Democratic administration to undo what has been so well done in the Philippine Islands; its failure to protect the rights, lives and property of American citizens, lawfully and peacefully domiciled in Mexico; its cowardly and well-nigh successful effort to surrender our sovereignty and give away our treaty rights in the Panama canal zone and canal; its arbitrary and autocratic dictation to Congress, no less than the servile obedience of its majority, all serve to disgust and drive away from its sup port every right-thinking man and red-blooded American citizen and lover of his country." THE AMERICAN GIRL'S MOST POPULAR IDOL On James Whitcomb Riley's several visits to our home we came to know how the people, especially the children, loved him. Long before he was awake in the morning the little folks had al ready gathered in the waiting room to greet him. One little miss of Ave was in tears when she told us how hard her father had tried to get her into the opera house to see Riley the night be fore and had failed. That was why she was first of the children at our house the following morning, and when we assured her that she should see Riley, her eyes fairly beamed with Joy. A little later her cup was full. She had her dimpled arms about her Idol's neck and was covering his face with kisses and telling him how she loved him. Then Riley explained to her how lucky she was, after all, not to see him on the stage, for, said he, "Don't you see how much better looking I am when you are close to me?" Of course he was, and his delighted little lover clapped her hands In childish glee. Another doting lassie, black-eyed and beautiful, declared her undying love for the children's poet Oh, the sweet candor of the unpolluted child heart! She wore a necklace with a clasped heart for a charm, and when he told her how pretty It was and added, "That's the kind I used to wear when I was a little girl," she regarded him with wonder .or a moment and then hurst into joyous laughter.—"Riley, Nye and Field—Personal Notes and 'Recollections," Eugene V.

Petitions for the nomination of Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh for Governor are being received by personal friends who have enlisted themselves as solicitors and in the last few days names have been coming In so fast that It has been lm Great Excitement at Erie, Pa. CAUSED BY THE QUAKER HEALTH TEACHER The following from a recent Issue of the Erie (Pa.) Times will give an Idea of what may be expected: "Two more cases of marvelous results were reported yesterday which prove all the ' more strongly the wonderful powers [of Quaker Extract and Oil of Balm. Both are reports of well-known local people and their addresses are given so that all who wish may Investigate further. Mrs. Krouse, wife of Frank Krouse, the well-known property man of the Park Theater( they live at 707 East Seventh street), suffered for years from various stomach com plaihts and constipation. When she got up in the morning she felt worse than the night before and always felt tired. Her tongue was heavily coated and her breath bad. After eating she would be subject to bloating and belching, causing heart palpitation and dizziness. Her hands and feet were al | ways cold and her color grew more possible to tabulate them. Their ag gregate has probably not fallen below 2,000 and has run as high as 5,000 every day for the last week. It Is believed that when the peti tions are all in for filing at Harrls burg on Tuesday, they will contain 75,000 or even more names, and will represent every county in the State. Already petitions have been received from three-quarters of the counties. The signing of the petitions has been accomplished without resorting to the facilities of political machinery and represents solely the efforts of friends of Dr. Brumbaugh. While an over whelming majority of the signers are on the Republican petition, the Wash ington party is represented by a large number also and it is not improbable that Dr. Brumbaugh will win the Washington party nomination. His name will be on that ballot at the pri mary unless he should decide to re strict his name to the Republican ballot. sallow from day to day. She was dis couraged with medicine because she had tried so much without relief. Her husband Insisted that she try 'Quaker.' She did so. Then she began to notice Improvement, this Improvement con tinued and now she is entirely wel!. When she learned that the Health Teacher was about to leave Erie she called to express her thanks and this testimonial Is published with her free permission. "The remarkable case report ed Is that of the little 6-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Martin, who live In Seventeenth street, near the boiler works. This little girl had been sick for over two years and it could not be learned what really ailed her. At times she was ravenously hungry and at other times the very sight of food would nauseate her. She had several spasms, often complained of pains In her stomach and seemed to SUFFRAGISTS BURN THEATER Great Yarmouth, England, .April 17. —The theater on the great recreation pier here was destroyed to-day by a fire caused by the explosion of a bomb left under a seat by a militant suf fragette.

Her father obtained a bottle of Quaker Extract. It was given to the child only a few days when, marvelous to relate, this little girl expelled a monster tapeworm over thirty feet long. This, then, had been the cause of all her suffering, and Quaker Extract, by removing tho cause, cured her sufferings and saved her life. She is now a hearty, healthy, happy child.
