Grand Jury Investigating the
Public Administrator
DR.. CAMPBELL AS A WITNESS
What an Examination of the Records
Has Disclosed
The O'Bryans in a Fair Way of Settling
Their Differences-An Alleged Burglar
Acquitted-0enerai Court Notes

The grand jury was in session most of
the day yesterday, and, although but one
witness was examined, considerable busi-
ness was transacted. The witness exam.
ined was Coroner George w. Campbell,
but as that officer was indicted without
ever having been examined before the jury,
it is surmised that his examination was in
connection with some other officer. The
only officer with whom the coroner has any
business relations is the public administra-
tor, and it is believed by those who keep an
eye on these matters that the affairs of
Frank M. Kelsey are being probed into
The coroner is supposed to keep a correct
record of all moneys, valuables. etc., taken
from the bodies of those on which iuquests
are held. This record is kept in book
especially arranged for the purpose, and
it is the only check on the public admins
TRAITOR, to whom he is supposed to turn over
all the effects when there are no relatives
to claim them, taking his receipt for the
same, which is pasted in the book. 1t is
only fair to say that the space allowed for
enumerating the money and valuables
found by the coroner on dead bodies is
blank until Coroner Campbell took the Of
flee, in January last, since which time this
blank has been filled up in every instance,
and the receipt of either Treasurer Flem-
ing or Public Administrator Kelsey is ap-
pended in due form. Since DR.. Campbell
has been coroner he has found on dead
bodies something like $1,000 in cash, the
largest amount being 500, and from that
down TO cents, besides jewelry, watches,
etc., all of which has been accounted for.
1t is not known just what special case is
being looked up or what information has
been laid before the grand jury. but it is
regarded as certain that Mr.. kelsey's Of
flee is the one now under scrutiny. Should
the case be prior to January 7, this year,
there is no record in The coroner's books,
though Mr.. Kelsey may have his books in
such shape as to account for every penny
received by him. At any rate, The investi-
CATION has developed that unless the coro-
ner's books are closely kept up there is no
check on the public administrator.

4 Big ''Big Tree"

The Puget sound country IS fam ous for it's "big trees" But it is not generally known how very large some of the biggest of those "big trees" really are.
 In the city of New Whatcom, a seaport town and the county seat of Whatcom county, the northwest county in Washington and in the United States, is erected Oil the outer edge of the sidewalk on one of the principal street corners an i'm mense slab or section of one of Washington's biggest red fir trees.
 The slab, being cut directly across the diameter of the tree, like q butchers cutting block, Is set on edge, the greatest diameter extend Ing upward, the bark all on about it's entire circumference.
 A stranger naturally feeis ir- clined to walk up to the sab and measure it by his height, and is eur prised to ind that It would take another man standing on his head to extend to the top ofit. Then he steps back pace and reads She following inscription neatly painted on board attached to the face of the slab:
 Tree from Loops Ranch Forks, Whatcom county, Washington.
 "The tree was 465 feet high, 220 feet to first limb, 33 feet II inches in circumference at the base.
 If sawed into lumber, would make 96,345 feet.
 "Would build eight cottages, tive stories high, seven rooms each.
 "The tree is about 480 years old according to the rings.
 eff sawed into inch square strips, would fill ten ordinary cars.
 "The strips would reach from Whatcom to China"
 "The section shows the tree sound to the core.

Decapitated His Wife.

Wori was received in Tu,son = gently that A. c. Hystrum, ma~Iered his wife last Monday in the City o Mexico. The murder was accomp lished in a most horrible manner, the woman being literally beheaded. The motive is said to have been jealousy The murderer made his escape.
 Hystrum was long a freight con- ductor of the Southern Pacific, run ming between this village and Tucson. His wife is well remembered in that city as a woman of pleasant disposi- tion and liked and respected by all her neighbors. Hystrum was the conductor of train which ran over and killed 9 tramp west of town and fearing that trouble might grow out of the affair he suddenly left town. He was next heard of in the city of Mexico, where he had obtained em- ployment on the Mexican Central His wife joined him about ten months ago.
 He was an employee on the train which killed Tomlinson at Casa Granda several years ago and out of which grew a protracted suit for damages against the railroad com pany; and also the nend who brutally pelted young boy this side of Gila City with rocks until he fell senseless from the running train the wheels of which passed over one leg and maimed him for life.
 Very little is known of the an tecedants of either Hystrum or his wife. He was Swede but whether he was born in this country or not is not known. He and his wife made their acquaintance in an Illinois town and some time after settled in Tucson.

stomach. Frequently he doesn't even know whether the thing he eats IS going to agree with him or not. The things that please his palate most are often the worst for him to eat Even the simplest food is likely to cause him misery and sleepless- ness. His first trouble was very slight very si1nple-Yery easy to cure. He ate something indigestible and 1t stuck some place ill his digestive system. He ate more things and they stuck. Part of his diges- tion stopped altogether-that IS constipa- ton.
 Constipation is so common that more than half the people ill America are troub- led with it. It is so serious that nine tenths of the sickness of the world is traceable directly to this common cause. A mans health and strength depend upon what he gets out of his food. This depends on his digestion. Constipation stops diges- ton. Anybody can see that. The com monest kind of common sense will tell you that. When digestion stops, nutrition stops, and the whole body is thrown out of order.
 The way to statt digestion is to remove the obstruction The way to do that is to take Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are a positive cure for constipation and its attendant ills s- headaches, sour stcpl- ach, flatulence, dizziness, biliousness and "heartburn." They are very gentle in their action. They simply assist nature. They give no violent wrench to the system. They cause no pain, nor gripping, nor dis comfort of any kind

Heard of at Last.

We are informed that Francis Ross who spent several months here an, who suddenly disappeared one day last week has written to friend iron San Francisco, stating he is enjoying good health and will return in the near future and locate permanently in Yuma.
 Mir. Rossi's disappearance caused much anxiety among the many friends he made during his visit among us and as he failed to inform any one of his contemplated depart ure for the above city, the rumor was soon current on our streets that he had drowned himself. His friends secured the country hereabouts for him for several days and his relatives in the above city were written but not a trace of him could be discovered.
 It is to be hoped that when he con- templates another trip he will make the same known to his friends and thereby save them and himself a great deal of annoyance.
 A correspondent here of the Er- ane1'aer after making diligent inquiry and everything indicating he had committed suicide, telegraphed the same to that journal. A reporter Of that paper on receipt of the dispatch hurried to the residence of his mother in that city for an interview and on his arrival at the house found the supposed dead man dining with his mother. Mir. Rossi had been at home only 8 short time on the entrance of the reporter into his mothers home. Had he been few hours later that sensational sheet, no doubt, would have published several columns with his photograph and that of the Colo rado river bridge.
 We wonder, if MT. Rossi, who is a prominent attorney of that city, is not just 'little sorry" he had not been late, for he could then have perused his own obituary.

Needs attention at this time. If you are tired, weak and nervous, it is clear that your blood is impure, and without doubt there has been too much over-work or strain on brain and body. The course of treatment for such a condition is plain and simple. The blood must first be puri- fled so that the nervous system, and in fact all the organs will be fed upon pure blood. Intelligent people with out number have testified that the best blood purifier, nerve tonic and strength imparting medicine is Hoods Sarsaparilla.

They are genuine ob- jects of compassion as well as censure. A failure of appetite, loss of sleep and flesh, impaired digestion, an uncer- tain state of bowels and symptoms of billousness are so many warnings of the approach of disease. To disregard them is abject folly, which offended nature in due time punishes severely, if not fatally That genial and thor oughly reliable. preventive of bodily mischief in the shape of chronic dis ease, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, will, if restored to in time, avert those disorders, to the removal of which it is also fully adequate.
