CatarTh Means Danger.

Because if unchecked it may lead
directly to consumption. Catarrh
is caused by impure blood. This
fact is fully blished. There
fore, 1t IS useless TO try to cure
catarrb by outward applications

cure catarrh IS TO purify the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparilia, the

HUBBARD & M'DUFF
A Large Hardware House OF This City
Managed by Competent and
Popular Men.

A Star reporter, IN his rounds
today, looked in on Mana ger
Harry Ciarkson, of the big hard
ware house of Hubbard and Nc
Duff, and was shown through the
eSt2 blishment and was very
much pleased at the size and
completeness of the stock. Not
only is the store filled but the
spacious double warehouse in the
rear and fronting on Magnolia
street IS also stored full Of goods.
In there was slowed about 20o,-
900 pounds Of bar iron and steel
nicely arranged in frames, with a
large supply OF piping. The
rod iron ranges in size from Cne-
fourth Of an inch to a car axle
and the piping from a tiny gas
pipe to a huge water main.
Stacked along one side of the
house is three car loads Of nails,
several car loads of sash, doors
and blinds, and in fact all kinds
of builders material, of which
the firm carry a big stock.
Cooking and heating stoves were
well represented in all sizes and
prices, and of paints, oils and
varnish no house is better pre-.
pared to fill an order. They
\ have a big supply of glass that
, will be cut in any size the pur-
chaser may desire. The firm
draws big trade in phosphate
and mill supplies, betting cane
mills, farming implements, etc,
and probably handle more amnu-
milton, dynamite and blasting
powder than any firm in the
state, the latter being kept al
their magazine.
In the store itself is a large,
neatly arranged stock Of carpen

arms, and i'll fact everything tx
be found in a first-class hardwar,

with the world, no one is nor,

Without wishing to cast blame

with many who have served on

the conclusion that the j. P.'S,

favorably in points of intelli-

average of our grand jurors.

referred to the grand jury, which
failed to find true bills. In such

vOUcHED FOR BY A SPIRIT
An Applicant for a Railroad Job Secures II
Through Mediums Efforts

One of the big railroad corporations OF
Chicago not long ago had an opening
for a man in the main office, and as the
officers did not care to advertise, they
instituted inquiries among employees as
to the whereabouts of some desirable
man to fill the position. After the lapse
of about a week some of the employees
brought in applications from men for
the place. and in two or three instances
the introduced applicants in person to
the chief clerk.
One of the men who was introduced
impressed the chief clerk very favora-
bly,, and after long talk with him, he
asked him to write letter the next day
stating his business experience, his
ideas as to what course should be pur-
sued in reference to the position sought,
his references, etc. The letter arrived
in a couple of days and contained very
satisfactory account of the mans busl-
ness dealings and clear and intelligent
presentation of what he believed were
the duties attaching to the place. He
also gave several references, and among
them was the name of well-known
citizen of Chicago who had died some
was marked the word, deceased"
They sent for the applicant and ques-
toned him as to the reason of his giving
a dead man as a reference. He said he
understood that one of the high officials
was a Spiritualist; that he himself was
Spiritualist, and Spiritualistic commu-
nication through a medium would bring
a voucher from his friend, the dead man.
The high official was notified, accepted
the proposition. medium was secured,
the spirit called up and interviewed, the
applicant got the job, and he is now
holding 1t, thanks to his friend in the
land of nowhere.-Chicago Chronicle.

Consumed ThIrty-three Tons Of Coal Day

1.-THE heating and bniler plant of the
state, war and navy departments build
ing" said Commodore Baird, u. S. NJ,
superintendent of the building, though
not generally known, is the largest in
the world. Indeed, there are very few
heating plants in existence that even
approach it in extent or power. To run
1t requires 5000 tons of coal every year.
During the recent cold snap this plant
consumed SO tons of coal each day. the
contract price of which Is $430 per ton.
In moderately cold weather, however,
20 tons of coal suffice for each day. There
are in the plant IL heating boilers, 10
steam boilers, 2 engines for dynamos,
and one for the machine shop These run
the eight elevators and the two print
ing offices in the building, as well as
the hydraulic and steam pumps The
electric light outfit Is run at an expens e
of Az cents per 1000 watts. In other
words, the expense for electric lighting
is less than one-half the expense of
gas, which was formerly and exclusive
ly used. There is a gas service. should
it be needed. There are 10000 people in
the building, and the questions of ven
tilating, heating and lighting are very
important to all concerned. By the ar
rangements in connection with the coal
vaults, the coal goes direct to the fur
naces, where it is consumed with one
handling and at very little expense. In
this respect the heating plant Is also far
superior to any other. The thirty or
more carloads of coal which went into
the furnaces each day last week were
weighed also after they arrived inside
the department court, where there is a
standard scale" le."-Washington Evening

OF GENERAL INTEREST

At Tempe, Ariz., a man sentenced to
ten days in the penitentiary for mis-
demeanor paid as the equivalent of three
days of the sentence SO, the only money
he had, but the jailer's reckoning of time
was so careless that the prisoner had
served the full sentence before the facts
were discovered. When claim was
presented against the county for 50 the
clerk of the board of supervisors gave an
opinion that the only apparent way for
the claimant to get redress was to COM
nit another misdemeanor, which would
enable the judge to allow something for
the overtime that had been served on
the first sentence.

YOUNG BURGLARS ARRESTED
A Precious Couple Captured in a Second
Street Lodging House
Ed Curtis and W.Ii Chids Partners In the
Whoiesais L.rcsny Business-Hsintz's
Property Is Recovered

In West Second street lodging house
yesterday forenoon Ed Curtis and VIII
Childs were arrested by police detectives
Hawley and Aubie and lodged in the
city Jail charged with burglary. The
officers were looking up the thieves who
had recently b-oken into and robbed a
trunk in the very house where Curtis
and Childs were caught. They suspected
the latter and entered their room, find
ing, not only evidence of the rifling Of
the trunk, but sufficient plunder to show
that the men had been guilty Of another
crime.
On the night of February 2Sth or early
in the morning of the first of the present
month the room of II. w. HeintZ at No.
319 West Second street, next door to
where the prisoners lived, was entered
by means of skeleton keys and gold
watch and chain, suit of clothes and
overcoat were stolen. The theft was onl:
reported to the police yesterday noon,
but inside of an hour Curtis and Childs
were behind the bars. In the room was
found all of Heintz's stolen property, be-
sides much other stuff which the police
believe is the proceeds of similar jobs.
Curtis is said to be an all around thief
who came to this city from Sacramento.
Childs belongs here, but has been away
for some time, returning lately. He was
obliged to leave before for stealing a
lot of stuff from his sister, which prop
erty was recovered by the detectives.
He went to Denver, where he was several
times arrested for thieving and when
the police made it too hot for him left
and came back to this city. The Off
GERS claim to have a clear case against
both of the fellows and will probably
arraign them today in the police court.
