Feared Counter -Revolution in
His Favor.
It Has Beers ()unarmed That Nicholas
Roasanof Was Shot by Order of
Ural Regional Conwell - Russian
Government Promisee to Publish
DocaMenta Bearing on the Case.
LONDON. July 23. -Former Em-
peror Nicholas of Russia has been
shot, a Russian wireless statement
announces.
The former Emperor's correspon-
dence, including letters from the
Monk ltaaputin, who was killed
shortly before the revolution, writ-
ten to the then Emperor and his
faintly, will be published to the near
future, the wireless message de-
clares.
The former Empress and young
.Alexis Romanoff, the former heir ap-
parent, have been sent to a place of
security.
The central executive body of the
Bolshevik Government announces
that It has at Its disposal Important
material documents concerning the
former Emperor's affairs, Including
his own diaries.
The messages announces that a
counter-revolutionary conspiracy was
unearthd, with the object of wrest-
ing the former Emperor from the
Soviet Council. In view of this tact
the President of the Ural Regional
Council decided to execute the for-
med ruler, and the decision was car-
ried out on July 16.
Documents concerning the con-
spiracy which was discovered were
forwarded to Moscow by a special
messenger. It had been recently de-
cided, the message explains, to bring
the ex -Emperor before a tribunal "to
be tried for his crines against the
people." Later occurrences, how-
ever, led to delay In adopting this
plan.
The test of the Russian wireless
message reads:
"At the first session of the Central
Executive Committee elected by the
Fifth Congress of the Councils. a
message was made public that
should be received by direct wire
from the Ula( Regional Council con=
cerning the shooting of the ex -Czar
Nicholas Romanoff.
"Recently Yekaterinburg, the cap-
ital of tbe Red Urals, was seriously
threatened by the approach of
Caecho-Slovak lands. and a counter-
revolutionary conspiracy was discov-
ered which had as its object the
wresting of the ex -Czar from the
hands of the council's authority. 1a
view of this fact, the President of
the Ural Regional Council decided
to shoot the ea -Czar and the decision
was carried Out oa July 16.
"The wife and the son of Nicholas
Romanoff have been sent to a place
of security.
••Documents concerning the eon -
'piracy which was discovered have
been :orwarded to Moscow by a spe-
cial messenger. It had been recently
,decided ,10 brinll,'IA9)lessees J»fque
a tribunal to be tries for his crimes
against the people. and only later
occurrences led to delay in adopting
this- course.
"The Presidency of the Central
Executive Committee, having dis-
cussed the circumstances which com-
pelled the Ural Regional Council to
take its decision to shoot Nicholas
Romanoff, decided as follows:
" 'The Russian Central Executive
Committee, In the person of its
President. accepts the decision of the
Ural Regional Council as being reg-
ular.'
"The Central Executive Commit-
tee has now at its disposal extreme-
ly important material documents
concerning the affairs of Nicholas
Romanoff - his diaries, which he
kept almost' up to his last days, the
diaries of his wife and his children.
and his correspondence, amongst
which are the letters of Gregory
Raaputin to the Romanoff family,
These materials will be examined
and published in the near future,"
News of the death of the former
Russian Emperor is accepted as more
than probable in Paris. especially as
it appears to be believed in Germany.
The Temps says:
"The former Emperor's death
must produce unforeseen conse-
quenees In Russia. Hence, it is more
than ever necessary that the Allies
have a coherent, clear and tar -seeing
policy in Russia, the principles of
whish should certainly nye in con-
formity to those formulated in Wash-
ington."
Fifteen Killed In Ttralo Smooth.

HADN'T SHEN WELL DAY FOR

Taylor Says Wile Is in Better Health
Than He Ever Saw Her -Praises
Taniac.
"My wife has been a great sufferer
from disordered stomach ever since I first
knew her. but she is in better health aow
than I have ever seen her, and the reason
is she is now taking Tanlac." is what
Richard A. Taylor said to the Tarlac
representative the other day. Mr. Taylor
lives at 3 Oak Street Place, Toronto, and
is employed at the Consumers Gas Plant,
Toronto.
"She always had a poor appetite and 1
don't believe 1 have ever seen her enjoy a
good hearty meal like anybody eine.
What little she did eat seemed to stout 00
her stomach and the gas that lbrated
from her undigested fwd would bloat her
up till she felt perfectly miserable. and
after meals she would often complain of a
heavy feeling in her chest. Her food did
not seem to do her a bit 01 food, for she
fell off in weight and 1 dont believe she
had a well day till recently in twenty
years. Her nerves were shattered, she said
she felt tired and worn out all the time.
and she had so little strength and energy
that her housework would almoet break
her down.
•1 believe she has taken about every
medicine that is on the market trying to
get well. but nothing did her a bit of gewd
until she got hold of Tanlac, and that le
the only medicine she ever found that
helped her any. One of her friends, who
tad taken it. told her about it, so I got
her a bottle. She has taken only for
bottles so far and she is now;feeling and
looking so much better that her friends
are congratulating her on her improve-
ment. That stomach trouble has almost
entirely left 'krone! she is feeling stronger
than ever. Why, she can do all her
housework not without getting all tired
out like she did before. and it sure is a
pleasure to see how she enjoys her meal.
like she dors. Really. I was so taken up
with the way she began to pick up, after
starting on Tantac that I tried the medi-
cine myself and it sure did me a world of
good. too."

the Russian employer, "why yo'i

a reduction of working hours from

"That is easy," replies the' head
of the visiting committee. "We must
have more time in which to spend
our increased wages."

TORONTO, July 23. -In round fig-
ures, there were about 3200 head of
cattle on the Union Stock Yards mar-
ket yesterday, and to say that the
market was strong under the com-
paratively heavy run and scorching
weather conditions was not to be ex-
pected. The market 011 the whole,
however, for the real good to choice
steers, what few there were, was
steady with last week, and the ehoIce
butcher cows held steady, but all
other grades of cattle were slow of
sale and 25c lower.
There was absolutely nothing do-
ing in the stocker and feeder trade,
no demand, and practically no sales.
There was a fair run of sheep and
lambs -637, all told -for the most
part of fair quality. Choice lambs
sold at from 191/40 to 20%c; yearl-
ings, 16c to 17c; Licht sheep, 150 to
155c, and heavy, fat sheep at 101110

Suspicions Ship Held at Havana.
HAVANA, July 23. - The Cuban
Government, pending an investiga-
tion, Saturday seized the scl5ooner
Georgina Roop at Melones, laden
with 400,000 litres of rum.
The Government's action followed
the discovery that the schooner,
when ready to clear for Uruguay,
had suddenly changed its name to
the Pinchand, and, owing to reports
that large quantities of rum and
alcohol had been furnished to Ger-
man submarines at certain points in
the Atlantic, the Government deter-
mined to ascertain more facts con-
eerning the schooner before allowing
It to sail.

ADVERTISING A NECESSITY.
a
In conversation with a successful business man of a nearby town a few days
ago, the discussion turned on advertising, and we expressed surprise at the amount
which he explained he was spending on advertising in his local paper. suggesting
that many small-town merchants considered that they could not afford to spend
uch money on advertising. "I know that is the impression, but that is where they
out," he said. "I have tried both ways, and my experience has taught me that
i ca t afford not to advertise." He went on to explain that unadvertised goods
on his - elves waiting for a customer to come and ask for them kept his money tied
up too 1. and resulted in Toss from wastage as well. He had found that no well -
bought go'. - were ' stickers" if the people were informed about them. and the only
way to tell a•. t them is by newspaper advertising.
This is one of ' points that is often lost sight of in preparing advertising. If
a prospective Gustreads in an advertisement that a certain merchant has an
article for sale that will > richt the customer, either as a tool for use or as an article
for wear or consumption, will investigate and probably buy. If the merchant
buys goods, puts them on hi shelf and says nothing apout them to anyone he can-
not expect to be besieged with • r uests for that line of goods.
One of the commonest comp(- s is that the large department and mail order
stores in the cities cut the heart out . e local merchant's business. There is food
for thought in'.he fact that no business out of town to a department or mail
:.order Mire that is not itself an advertiser. Through newspapers. catalogues and
Circulars thele city firms place the story of t Wares right into the homes:of the
retry merchant's customers, arid order after r goes W these houses simply be-
• use the buyers do not know -they have not been .told -that the same goods can
be purchased to equal advantage at home. .
As a rule people prefer to deal at home if they can g what they want or any-
thing near what they want in the local stores, and the mere t who by advertising
tells the people what they want to know about his goods has need to fear mail
rder competition.-Ridgetown Dominion.
