and Costs Amounting to $40.
Harry Pouch, the picture agent who
was arrested last week and charged
with robbing the Park Street hotel was
tried before Justice Slater yesterday.
On the recommendation of the District
attorney the charge against Pouch
was changed from burglary to one of
larceny. The defendant plead not
guilty but after the evidence in the
case was presented the Justice found
him guilty and fined him 1924 and the
costs of the action which amounted to
$15 more. The fine and costs were paid
by a brother of the defendant and he
was released last evening. The evil
dence against Pouch was of circum-
stantial nature and no positive evidence
was presented. The young fellow left
for his home this morning still declar-
ing his innOcense.
Byron McCabe who was arrested at
the same time on a similar charge was
released last Monday as the evidence
against him was exceedingly weak.

Carriers Monthly For NAV.

Carriers Monthly Magazine, pub
lished in Chicago and edited by Opie
Read, is making rapid strides in public
favor. 1t is the only ten cent maya
zine in Chicago devoted exclusively to
American literature, and is certainly
supplying the need of western maya
zine, Each month the magazine pre-
sents an interesting table of contents,
consisting of short stories, sketches of
travel. and articles of general interest,
all profusely illustrated; but in addition
to this each number contains an article
of a philosophical, economic or scientific
nature. The leading article in the
May number is "Weltmerism-th New
Era in Healing" This is a capable
review of the Weltmer Method of Mag
netic healing, the new science that is
creating so much interest in the United
States and Europe. The article takes
up the question from a scientific stand
point, and shows the fundamental
principles upon which the science is
based. The writer visited the Weltmer
Institute, at Nevada, Mo-, for the pur
pose of research, and was astonded at
the marvellous cures effected. Since
Professor Weltmer discovered the new
science three years ago and commenced
it's practice at Nevada, over 10000
patients have been treated, and the
halt, the lame and the blind have been
cured.
The article also describes how the
sick may be cured at a distance by a
system of treatment prescribed by
Professor Weltmer upon thu patients
sending to him statement of their
cases. The cures effected by this
method are as remarkable as when
personally treated. The new science
has opened up another avenue of bust
ness for young men and women and
hundreds are taking the course of in
struction. The Weltmer Method of
Magnetic Healing is winning the adj
miration of the most noted physicians,
for nearly all the cures effected had
been given up by doctors as hopeless.
The remarkable success attending his
discoveries has stamped Prof. S. A.
Weltmer as one of the great men of the
age.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars;

ROW OVER GRADING.
North Side Woman Makes Trouble fvr the
Workmen Who Are Changing Grade

North Side Woman Makes Trouble for the
Workmen Who Are Changing a Grade
What seems to have been very
interesting fight took place Friday
morning between one of the best
known ladies of the North side and the
men who are engaged by the city to
take care of the work of grading the
streets before the summer driving
begins. The men were working on a
street at the corner of Caledonia and
Orange streets Friday morning and
they were suddenly stopped from their
work by the appearance of a woman
armed with a garden rake, who came
upon the scene of action to prevent any
further action on the street.
It seems that several of the people
living in the neighborhood had opposed
the grading of the street on the
grounds that when the new grade is
made the catch basins will be higher
than the level of the cutters on either
side of the street, and for this reason
the adoption of the new grade will re-
suit in their property being overlooked
with water nearly all summer.
When the men began the work OF
grading Friday morning the woman
who was more determined than her
neighbors, had one of her boys watch
the approach of the common enemy,
and when they we're working on the
street in front of her house she rushed
out with the rake and began an assault
on them which had an immediate
effect. The men fed in all directions
and it was some time before they were
willing to resume work on the street.
The lady who defended her rights in
this manner has not been arrested and
it is not thought that the officials OF
the city will take any notice of the very
forcible way in which the woman
opposed the street improvements.

Since the Ice Went Out Lake Michigan is
Said to be Six Inches Lower
With the lake clear of ice obserVa-
tions show that there are now about
six inches less water than during the
larger part of last season. On this
account draughts are taken off large
vessels coming down the Chicago river.
There are variations from day to day,
according to the direction of the wind,
but the average is about six inches less.
At this port the change is noticeable at
times, but hardly as much as six
inches.

NEW YORK CONDITIONS.
Worse OF Than the India ians.

There should be no strikes There
should be fewer millionaires and fewer
mendicants; fewer palaces and fewer
poorhouses and PRISONS fewer Carne-
gies and Morgans and Whitneys and
Mosts and Linggs and Spies. And the
public should be protected and the gen.
eral standard raised. Men have called
New York prosperous! They call it
civilized (whatever that may mean),
and speak of civilization as a boon.
1t is grinning truth, however, truth
at once ironical and portentous, that 10
of every 20 who inhabit the island today
AREN'T AS COMFORTABLY HOUSED
AND FED AND CLOTHED; ARE
NEITHER AS CONTENT NOR AS
HAPPY, AS WE'RE THEIR RED AND
SAVAGE PREDECESSORS THREE
CENTURIES AGO. Call these present
days nineteen-twentieths civilized IL
you will. What do you or they gain
by that? It's as good to read a brook
as a book; to hear a bird as a barrel-
organ, and your fulfilled savage, with
his warm robes round him, is in much
better state than some half-paid la
borer, cold and wet, goes home to want
and pain and misery among his dear
ones, to relieve which he's as much
without power as he is without hope.
This is all desultory talk and scant Of
sequence. 1t is argument as bilious as
it is blunt. But it may start some
folks a-thinking. The public must
take brisk, quick interest in the labor
question, or the public will get pinched.
One-half the recent rioters were women.
Doesn't that teach something? Their
