DIAZ STABBED BY MEXICAN.
IVohih s Probably Not Fatal?Assailant
Arrested?Attack Occurred
at Havana.
Havana, Nov. 6.? Gen. Felix Diaz
was stabbed by a Mexican at 10.30
o'clock tonisrht. He was wounded
twice, probably not fatally.
The attack on Diaz occurred while
lie was walking on the Malecon. a fashionable
promenade. He was wounded
ttehind the ear and in the neck, besides
receiving several blows, on the
head from a cane.
Diaz was removed to a hospital. His
assailant was arrested.
Gen. Felix Diaz escaped from Mexi
co October i\, taking reiuge on Doara
the United States gunboat. Wheeling
at Vera Cruz. He was transferred to
the Louisiana, then to the battleship
Michigan, later being put aboard the
steamer Esperanza, which reached
Havana last Monday.
Tracked by Conspirators.
As long ago as October 15 the Cuban
government was warned that a band
of Mexican conspirators was planning
to kill Diaz, who then was on his way
from Europe to Mexico, and Diaz was
O I
j^losely guarded when he landed at Havana
on his homeward voyage.
There were rumors cr otner piois
against his life, when it was learned
that he was to return to Havana. A
late Vera Cruz dispatch reported that
Diaz had left behind him there ^alleged
proof that an agent of the government ;
was on his way to Vera Cruz ' with 1
orders to take Diaz to Mexico city,,:
dead or alive.
Gen. Diaz was the candidate of the <
National democratic party for the

presidency, ne nau ueeu ij^iu uv ueu. .
Huerta as head of a special Mexican
' mission to .Japan, but returned to Mexico
to carry on his campaign. '(
Refused Huerta's Invitation.
When he arrived at Vera Cruz Oc-!
tober 22, he found the situation so
threatening that he did not dare continue
on to the capital. Gen. Huerta ]
sent him an invitation to come to Mex- '*
ico City, and even dispatched an envoy {
to endeavor to induce Diaz to accept *
the invitation. He declined and finally '
went to a hotel, from which he escap-1r
ed to the Wheeling. 1
Gen. Felix Diaz is a nephew of Gen.j *
Porfirio Diaz, former president of the ,r
republic. A year ago he headed a rev- j
olutionary movement at Vera Cruz, t

"Wnicn was promptly suppresseu. ne headed
the revolt against President 1
Madero in Mexico City last February, i t
which ended in the overthrow and ;t
death of Madero and the assumption < i
of the presidency by Gen. Huerta. j*
TOO MAM MIGRATORY TEACHERS (
Teachers Should Stick, Says Inspec
tor W. H. Hand. * t
Columbia, Nov. 6.?."The frequency ]
and regularity, with which some ^
school change teachers almost i
makes one dizzy. There are ]
two principal reasons for these
changes. In the nrst piace, 1
many teachers themselves have a rest- l
less and migratory disposition. They \
seem to be on the constant lookout for j
advancement or promotion before they ' ]
have given any marked evidence of
* "U J i
capacity or liuve acuieveu any lunncu
success; or, they soon tire of their .
;
present job and think they could Jo i:
better in some other field. Such teach ;
ers seem to forget 'that promotion j
naturally follows achieved success instead
of preceding it. They overlook ,
the fact that it takes time to establish
a reputation, and that every time a ,
teacher changes his field he has to beor4n

School, Boards to Blame. '
"In the second place school boards (
are largely to blame for this constant
migration of teachers. Naturally any
board wishes to see its school a success,
but unfortunately the board does '
i
v>/-kt oln-o-j-cj tnAW inct hniv tr? it
I1UI CI 1 ?? UJ o ivuv " JVAKJV il V ?' VV 4.** v/ *w
a success. Many boards, in the small- :
er towns especially, seem to think that |
when they offer $900 a year for a man 1
principal and $400 for women assistants
they ought to command the pick
of the teachers of the State. Instead
they usually get a young man just out 1
of college, absolutely innocent of any j
knowledge of how to run a school. :
Sometimes they get an older man who i
has been drifting from school to school
lor several years without any suspicion
of success. Of course, by the ,
end of the year the board finds itself ,
and the community disappointed. Then,
instead of holding the young man and
giving him time to grow, or of supporting
and encouraging the older one,
the board dismisses him to go in
quest of another new recruit.
"How can a school board expect or
hope that a beardless youth with a
last June's diploma in his trunk shall
be able to organize a school, build a
course of study and direct a body of
teachers, many or few?all in one or
two years? A banker would not
expect such a person to run a bank.
A manufacturer would :< -t intrust to
l " him a manufacturing plant. A farmer
would not think of employing hiin
! to manage r. farm. But-to run a
school is a different thing; anybody
can do that. Besides, it is hard 'to see
the common sense in giving this inexperienced
young man a hundred
dollars a month and calling him prin
cipal, or even superintendent. 10
supervise from two ;o four women
teachers at $40 or $4"> a month. The
situation is all the more absurd when
half these women know more about
teaching than this young man will
know when he leaves the school room
to study law or medicine, or to go into
business. Mark Twain once said,
The Lord made lunatics. That was
for practice; then He made school
boards.'"
"The Leopard's Spots.''
When it was first announced in the
dramatic papers that "The Leopard's
Spots" in dramatic form was soon :o
become an actual fact Mr. Dixon the
author of the book who is also responsible
for the dramatization was
beseiged by New York theatrical managers
who were very anxious co in- J
vest their capital in so profitable an
enterprise. Mr. Dixon, who knew from i
past experience that to kave absolute j
control of the play was essential to
its artistic success turned down all of- i
fers and became a producing manager.
Judging from the success of the play
the leading theatrical managers will j?
have to look to their laurels in the fu- I
ture as Mr. Dixon has spared no ex-?~

FELKER TlTR>S THAW
OYER TO SEW YORK j
Governor's Decision Automatically j
Throws it Into United States Tri- j
bunal.
I
Concord, N. H., Nov. 8.?Gov. Fel- j
cer today honored the requisition of j
:he State of New York for the extra- i
Jition of Harry K. Thaw, the fugitive ;
!rom the New York State hospital for
the criminal insane at Matteawan.
rhe case is now transferred autonatically
to the federal courts, where ?
--- v .1? t J? :
i writ of Habeas corpus on Denau oi |
rhaw is pending.
The governor based his decision on ;
he indictment returned against Thaw !
n New York county, which charged I
lim with conspiracy to escape from
he asylum, to which he was commited
after his second trial for the kill
ng of Stanford Wihite. Thaw made j
lis sensational flight od August 17, j
md a few days later was arrested near !
^oaticock, Canada.
To Amend Petition.
Thaw's attorneys announced that |
I
.bey would immediately file an amend- |
nent to their petition for a writ of '
labeas corpus, application for which
>vas made soon after Thaw was arrested
in this State following his deportation
from Canada.
The original petition was based on
:he allegation that Thaw was indicted
"or conspiracy by the Dutchess county
?rand jury and it was suspended pend
ing the governor's decision upon the
matter of extradition.
Because the extradition has now
been granted on the strength of the
N'ew York county indictment it will
be necessary to amend the petition
accordingly.
Thaw was not present when Gov.
Felker announced his decision to the .
attorneys representing the fugitive j
and the State of New York at the j
capitol. He will remain here in the

they don't stimulate the Liver and re- :

You take nasty salts, disagreeable ;
oils or mineral waters, or any of a I
hundred other laxatives and laxative j
preparatons, and with all your trouble,
yon get imperfect results.
These are simply mollycoddle laxatives,

from such troubles as bad breath,
headache, dizziness, loss of appetite,
j constipation, biliousness, etc., is to
1 release the dammed-up Bile. Merely
(washing out the intestines with salts,
! etc., will not release Bile.
Any physician or druggist will tell
I you that Calomel (Mercury) or Podoj
phyllin (May Apple Root) are the
i two great recognized Liver regulators
and Bowel Cleansers. Calomel
(so generally used, is a poisonous
mineral, exhausting and dangerous
to the system. Another laxative
must be given to wash it out.

I and Sheriff Drew pending the federal
j proceedings.
I'nder Indictment.
In granting the extradition Gov.
: Felker said in part: "By the petition
! of Gov. Glynn and the accompanying
papers k appears that the grand jury
nP flip cniiTitv nf Ww Vnrk rli'lv
returned into open court an indictment
against Mr. Thaw. That is
. sufficient to warrant the arresi, arraignment
and trial of the respondent,
if he may be found within the
state wnere in tne indictment :s penning.
It is furthermore sufficient to
establish that Mr. Thaw is?if found
in anv State or country which sucli
I
! indictment is pending?a fugitive
; from justice.
"The provisions of the federal con
stitution ana tne acts 01 congress enacted
to give force and effect thereto
as construed by the court of last resort
upon such matters, limit me to
(1) Whether the person demanded
the consideration of the question
has been substantially charged with
a crime and (2) whether he is a fugitive
from justice.
In Another Case.
"Such was the decision of the supreme
court of the United States In
the most recent case where in a sister ,
State demanded of New Hampshire j
the interstate rendition of a person
within her border (Muncy vs.
Clough, 196 U. SM 372, decided in
1903). In that case it was decided
by a unanimous court that the proceedings
in matters of this kind before
the governor are summary in
their nature.
"The person demanded has no con- J
stitutional right to be heard before
the governor on either question and
the statute provides for none. To :
hold otherwise would in many cases !
render the constitutional provision as 1
well as thg State passed to carry it i
out. wholly useless.
:
"I have nevertheless, owing to the
urgency of the- demands of his counsel?men
in whose integrity I have
confidence deep respect?given Mr. !
Thaw the fullest possible opportunity {
for the expression of their views. With '
I |
profound respect, therefore, I am un-1
aoie to view my auiy m me premises
as including an investigation of Mr.j
Thaw's mental condition or of the !
counsel for the State of New York or;
of the probable guilt or innocence \
of the accused."

makes no complaints in the papers, j
and I venture would utter no protest j

Vital Spot ? the LIVER
Podophyllin is the one perfect and
harmloe? cnhstitnfp fnr Calomel, and
will be remembered by older people
as the favorite remedy prescribed 20
or 30 years ago. It is harmless and
very efficacious, but its bitter taste
and griping, nauseating effects made
it unpopular.
For years chemists have experimented
in an endeavor to take the
bitterness, gripe and nausea out of
j Podophvllir , recognizing that it
! would then be the ideal Liver regu
j lator. At la?t this has been done
j and given the world under the name
PoDoLax.
PoDoLax is a Podophyllin formula
with all undesirable features takj
en out.
' PoDoLax is the perfect laxative
for every member of the family?
young or old. It should be in every
medicine cabinet. You will thank
us for explaining it after you have
tried it. Get a bottle today and use
it n'lionovor the fircf fivmnfons of
clogged Liver or Bowels appear.
You take 110 risk. If not satisfied,
you can have your money back. Suppose
you ask your druggist about our
