and said to an vance man
about as follows in regard to the new
depot:
II have intended coming to Worth
ington for some time but have been
so busy buying the right of way for
the new line to Minneapolis that it
has just been imp ssible. have ten
lawyers and several men working UNI
der me now on right of way matters
We intend to do the right thing by
WorthiDgron, the people will not be
disappointed when We get through.
We want the depot on 3rd avenue and
if it. can be placed there by moving
the track or buying We are W ling to
that. We want a nice depot here and
one that will be a credit to the town
and our company. It will not be
loatiing place. If the depot is put in
there it will not be a freight and pass
enger but exclusively fer passengers.
Some one will come here in short
time and look the ground over. may
do it myself, some one will any way.

To the Democrats and Other
Voters Of Mobiles County. a

10 the Democrats $aMd Other
Voters of Mobiles County.
Gentlemen: I wish to take this
public way to once more thank the
people for the most kindly support
they have accorded me. in the Office
of sheriff, and to also answer the
very many friends from every part of
the county who have so strongly urg-
ed me to be a candidate for another
term. I did not at first see the re-
ponsible position for another term
but SO many friends rendered their
support; still am not unmiudful of
claims of others as party usage
goes; so, while under other circum.
stances and conditions I might feel
>called upon to retire, in view of the
facts as they are, and in v ew If the
pEery general desire manifested that I
~again become candidate l hav
concluded to re-enter the race this
fall. Should be favored with the
nomination and election, / shall do
my best to maintain, and if possible
to improve upon my past record as
Sheriff of Mobiles county.
Again thanking the people, one
and all. for their most generous sup
port, I am, Very truly yours. .

MANY MILLIONS INVOLVED.

Decision Against the Heirs of Former
Governor Durkee Of Utah.
WASHINGTON, July 20.--The claim Of
the heirs of Charles Durkee, formerly
governor Of Utah, against the United
States for certain bonds Of the Union
Pacific valued at $64, 1928, 512, has been
dismissed by Judge Hagner of the dis
trict supreme court and the application
for a rule against Secretary Of the
Treasury Gage to compel delivery of
them to the claimants was denied.
Judge Hagner said this decision was
based on many grounds, an important
one of which was that Leonard Blais-
dell, complainant as attorney-in-fact
for the attorneys-at-law in the case,
was not the proper person to bring suit.
He intiniated that the suit should have
been brought by the administrators.
He said it was strange that such q great
property should have been 80 carelessly
handled that all trace of it should have
been lost He held that the act GREAT
ing the Pacific railroad sinking fund
made it discretionary with the secre-
tary of the treasury what claims SHOULD
be acted upon and first settled and that
a discretionary act cannot be controlled
by mandamus.

ORDERED T0QUlT
Chinese Minister to Russia Is
Given His Passports by the
Cars Government.
This Action Is the Result OF
the Chinese Invasion of the
Province of Amur.
Open Declaration of War Likely
to Be the Next Step Taken
by Joint Powers.

New YORK, July 20.-A special tc
The Journal and Advertiser from Lon
don says:
The Chinese invasion Of Amur prov
ince is equivalent to declaration OF
war against Russia, which, constituting
it as such, has handed the Chinese
envoy at st. Petersburg his passports
and requested him to leave the country,
along with the members Of his mission.
The Importance Of this Chinese dec
laration of war against Russia and OF
this bold invasion Of Russian territory
lies in the fact that as the matter now
stands it virtually releases the czar
from his obligations to the foreign
powers to act in concert with them in
China. He is placed thereby in posi-
tion to act independently, and not only
with reference to the defense Of his
dominions against the Chinese inva'
sion, but also as regards the carrying OF
war into the enemy's country and
the eventual march upon Pekin.

Speedy Recognition of State of War

Speedy Recognition of State of War
Likely to Be Made.
LONDON, July 20.-The action of
Count Won Buelow, the German min.
lister of foreign affairs, in informing
the Chinese legation at Berlin that all
telegraphic messages must be in plain
language and submitted for approval
by the censor, and the suggestion Of M.
Delcasse, the French minister Of for
eign affairs, that the expectation OF
arms to China be prohibited, which are
generally regarded here as long steps
in the direction of treating China as a
state engaged in war, have been sup
plemented by the official announce
ment from st. Petersburg that certain
portions of the Amur territory, includ-
ing parts of the Khaborovsk district
and the coast territory, as well as the
towns of Blagovestchensk, Khabarovsk
and Nikolskussuri, have been declared
in a state Of war since July II. Russia s
nnounoementi is regarded in London as
at least foreshadowing a speedy unoon-
ditional recognition of the fact that q
condition Of war exists between China
and the civilized world, and the general
opinion seems to favor such recognition
as the hest means of meeting the bar
barian npheaval, while at the same
time endeavoring to isolate the inde-
pendent viceroys from the general con-
faQrati0n

Bank Washing Day.

In some banks there is a regular
Washday every month, usually at the
beginning. when a clerk may be seen
bent over a tub and rubbing real mon
ey up and down washboard. The
dirty greenbacks that have been saved
up for month are soaped and rub
bed just like handkerchiefs and socks
and are run through a wringer before
being put OFT to dry. The paper cur
rency may be handled somewhat
roughly, as it does not tear because
there is in it great deal of silk and
linen. After the notes have been
passed through the wringer they are
hung on line stretched in the bank
clerks department. Said one clerk
the other day: 81 wash about 100 notes.
every month, and when I'm done you
can hardly tell them from new money.
The washing strengthens as well as
cleans the notes. ."-Philadelphia Rec

Diamo1d Cutters and Their work.

Not only is diamond cutting not a
specially highly paid occupation, but it
is one involving a most humiliating
system of espionage to the worker.
Each man has to strictly account for
the stones he receives on going to work
in the morning, and the count has to be
carefully taken when the unfinished
work is handed in at night to be locked
up in safe against the return Of the
workmen the next day. The possibili-
ties of theft are great, though dishon-
est workman knows that an attempt to
dispose of an unfinished stone would
bring suspicion upon him wherever the
attempt was made.

Freezing Weather in July.

Would cause great discomfort and
loss, but fortunately it is seldom
known. A vast amount of misery is
caused at this season, however, by
impoverished blood, poor appetite,
and general debility. These eondi-
tons may be remedied by enriching
the blood and toning the stomach
with Hoods Sarsaparilla. This
medicine seems to put new life into
the whole physical system, simply
because of its wonderful power to
purify, enrich and vitalize the blood,
create an appetite and invigorete the
digestive functions. We advise you
to get bottle and try it if you are
not feeling just right. 1t will do you
more good than six weeks vacation.
1t is the best medicine money can
