A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrofulous Humors How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods SarsapariIla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hopd's Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"

You can buy Hoods SarsapaTilIa of all
druggists. Be sure to get only Hoods.

He says French and a party of vague
roS had rounded up a band of cattle and
were about to drive them into a field on
his ranch. French went ahead on horse
back to open a gate, and having done so,
started back to the cattle. a man on
horseback intercepted him and they en-
gagged in a dispute lasting several min
uteS. French started to ride away, but
got only a few feet when the other drew
a pistol and shot him. French fell to the
ground with a bullet in his brain.
The murderer rode away and French S

MOBILE POSTOFFICE COMEDY
REPUBLICAN APPOINTEE AT
LAST INSTALLED.
Case In Which the Democrat Resisted
Because of Alleged Violation of
Law Covering Removals.

Mobile Ala, Dec. 2S.-Postmaster P. D.
Barker was installed in Office before day
light this morning after an all night vigil
in the postof1ce- The inspectors arrived
last night and overhauled the accounts of
the office and found that they We're cor
rect. This morning they took possession
and swore in Mr.. Parker and the en-
ployees on arrival Two of the employees
refused to take oath to the new post
master and were suspended.
Colonel Raoier, who claims to hold Of
fee by virtue of section $3.50 of the re-
vised statutes, which law requires that
removals before expiration OF term must
be by the advice and consent of the SEN
ate. sued out a writ of injunction in the
United States circuit court. The plea was
that Parker was not and is not post
master. because Rapier had not been le-
gally removed and Barker's name has not
been sent to the senate. Rapier asks that
Barker be enjoined from interfering with
him in the discharge OF his %ltY as post
master. Judge Toulmin refused to grant
the Injunction.

INCREASE IN EARNINGS.
In Better Condition Than
Last Year

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-The net income from
operation of the Atchison system for the
month OF November was 1922, 1856, an in
crease of $685., $50 over the same month of
last year. For the five months of the
fiscal year ending Nov. 30. the net income
of the system from operation was $4401,-
101, an increase of $500, al over the CORE
spending period of the preceding fiscal
year.
The net earnings of the Burlington sys-
tenn for the month of November We're
S5S0,SSS, an increase of $3l5,9
For the months from July to Nov. 80,
the net earnings of the system were 49,
4S9, 745 an increase of 81. 5SS,025 over the
same period of the proceeding year.
All of the passenger agents of the west
ern roads report that the business of the
holidays was anywhere from 60 to 70 per
cent over the similar traffic during last
year. Generally this class of business IS
for the most part confined to students, but
this year there was more miscellaneous
traffic than during any holiday season
during the last five years.
There is no sign OF Improvement in the
western freight rate situation, notwith-
standing the resolution OF the executive
of the roads have come to the conclusion
that they cannot hold their trade to Colo
RADIO points without making rates lower
than those now in effect, and all of them
be compelled to once more cut the rates
on all classes of freight to Colorado
points. The chances are that the rates
will be cut within one week after the
agreement to maintain them is supposed
to become binding on all of the roads.
Several general freight agents have ex-
pressed themselves to this effect and some
say that they do not intend to cut the
rates themselves, declaring they have
every expectation of seeing their COM
petitorS do it.

AS soon as the De Lamar mill is in good
working shape, and other properties at
Mercur become similarly situated, which
is expected in the near future, it is ex-
pected that the increased use of cyanide
of potassium will be increased to fig
ure far beyond that now required for all
purposes of extracting gold from the
ores.
The mining men who are interested are
best-rrlng themselves in the interests OF
a lower rate on this product, and it is
sGiG VIII in a Few days make an effort
to nave the railroads reduce the rate on
the same.
one prominent mining man said yester-
day that 1t would require some thing over
49, carloads per annum to supply the de-
mand for the mills which are already
working ana which VIII be completed
soon, and that with that amount of bust
ness for the camp of Aercur, he believed
something could be done in the way of
securing a reduction.
The salt Lake 81 Mercur folks have had
the.- attention called TO the matter, and
it is believed they viii take the initial
step in this direction. If the other roads
follow suit, as Is anticipated, there is
every reason for believing the stuff will
be laid down in Utah at reduced price,
commencing some ume in the coming
spring.

STILL sPECULATING.
Although AS Yet No Information Is
definite.


Traffic men from outside lines, who
were in the city yesterday, and local Of
ficials, discussing the possibility of Union
Pacific changes, incline 20 the beliet that
the relations which Traffic Manager Mum
roe sustained towards the Northwestern
during his incGmbency, VIII be the means
of retaining him with the Union Pacific
under the change of management. In
this connection 1t may be stated that not
ali railroad men believe that MT. Dicken-
son will be retained as general manager.
However, the talk which has been in
du!-ed in is all speculation as II is APP
parent that following so soon upon the
selection of the new directory nothing
definite in the way Of information can
be obtained.
The Herald was informed yesterday by
q well known railroad man that he had
ady.ceS to the effect that Mr. DichenSon
had been offered place with the b. q
O. 1t will be remembered that for some
time he was connected with that system
and left it to return to the Union Pacific.
This fact in Itself is sufficient to start a
runor of that kind going. There is alb
Solutely nothing definite in the situation
at this time, nor is there likely to be I'm
til later on.
Ordinarily there would be no use in de-
voting SO much space to the affairs of
the Union Pacific as has been done in the
recent past. but the fact that the Union
Pacific is regarded very favorably by the
people of Utah; the further fact that Mr..
Dickinson has many warm personal
friends in this city and elsewhere in the
state. makes discussion of changes per-
tinent and interesting
There are hundreds who would hail his
selection as the head of the operating
department with much pleasure, and it
appears to be the wish of all who are
cogniZant of the circumstances, that he

JOHN HEALY REFUSED TO NAME
HIS ASSASSIN.
The Man Who Slew Him Helped Him
In Distress, and His Gratitude
Overcame All Else.

New York, Dec 2S.-John Healy died
today in hospital from the effects of
a stab wound inflicted by George H.
Lincoln, a designer. Healy had been
out of work for some time. Lincoln,
who is married, befriended him, and the
two men were the best of friends. On
Christmas day Lincoln entered his
home intoxicated and threatened to
strike his wife. Healy pleaded for her
The wife ran into another room. When
she returned after hearing sounds of a
struggle she found Healy covered with
blood. Her husband had gone to hos
pital Lincoln, who was only slightly
wounded, was arrested and taken to
Healy's bedside. Healy positively de-
MED that he had ever seen Lincoln
before, and died today, refusing to i'm
plicate his old time friend in any way.
Lincoln is so distressed over the affair
that it is feared he will attempt to
commit suicide. He was committed to
await the action of the coroner.
