"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.

QUITSIN DISGUST
Joe Moyer Says Wilson Adminis-
I tration Is Out of Joint With
Americanism
j Pottsvllle, Pa., April 17. —J. 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,

tional Aiugazine for January. 1814.

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.

seemed to have lost all life and am

not be Interested In study. She was
surely the cause of much worry to her
devoted parents. 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. The tapeworm ia on dis
