SORES AND
ULCERS.

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood is in poor condition lis
sluggish, weak and unable to throw off
the poisohs that accumulate In 1t. The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and a1limpurities eliminated from the sys-
tenn. SIS. begins the cure by first cleans
Ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
a IA, ,a system a CONSTANT DRAIN

When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore or
ulcer heals. tits the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse.
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble. S. S. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition.
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. 1t supplies the rich, pure blood
necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body. i

MISS MORRISON TESTIF|ES
PROVES UNEXPECTEDLY STRONG
WITNESS FOR HERSELF.
Denies Most of Damaging Testimony Ad-
duced by Prosecution-Says Mrs.
Castle Was Aggressor.

Eldorado, Kan, Dec. Jessie
Morrison today took the stand in her
own defense and in a quiet, deter
mined manner, told of her relations
with DIN Castle before his marriage,
and calmly pictured the scene at the
Castle house during the bloody rough
and tumble fight with Mrs. Castle.
She proved an unexpectedly strong
witness. Miss Morrison approached
the witness chair pale and trembling,
and began her testimony with all
effort. AS she proceeded she gained
confidence and related her story with
out hesitation. She denied the most
damaging testimony adduced by the
prosecution. She fatty denied many
of the statements made on the stand
by Olin Castle. She declared that he
had tried to make Mrs. Castle jealous
and that Mrs. Castle had Haunted her
husbands acts in her face. On the
day Of the tragedy, she declared, Mrs.
Castle had called her into her house,
as she was passing and had accused
Miss Morrison of trying to separate her
and Castle and when she denied it,
called her a liar. Mrs. Castle had,
the witness declared emphatically, be-
gun the fight, slashing her with a
razor again and again and compelling
the defendant to attack her antagonist
in self-defense. .|.-n
During her thrilling recital of the
two women rolling over n another
in their combat, the spectators rivetted
their eyes upon Miss Morrison. In all
her testimony Miss Morrison was d.
rect and pointed and never once did
she finch and only one time during
the cross examination did she shed a
tear. 1t had been feared, eve by the
defense, that she would break down
durine~the cross examination. Tho
state did not succeed in making her
contradict any material point in her
testimony.

CHINESE OFFICIALS CONVICT
ED OF DUPL1cITY.
ORDER FRESH OUTRACES
European Officers Returning to
Pekin Report Continued
Massacres.

Pekin, Dec. 8-Captains Wingate
and Ryder, who accompanied the ex-
petition to Kalgan, returned today.
During their absence they visited sew
eral places to which the Germans did
not go, but they encountered no OPP
position.
They learned that some IL Euro.
peans, mostly Swedish and Norwegian
missionaries, besides Captain Watts
Jones, were massacred at Kwei Huai
Cheng by orders of the toa tai and
that 100 native Christians had also
been put to death. The details of the
outrages are most revolving.
Captains Wingate and Ryder visited
a Belgian station where the priests in
charge and 5000 converts had sus-
tanned a prolonged siege by boxers and
imperial troops. They were informed
that other stations further west are
besieged, not only by boxers, but by
Chinese troops acting under orders
from the authorities, and this in spite
Of the assurances by the pleniporen-
tiaries that the government is doing
it's utmost to suppress outrages.
Chinese carrying concealed weapons
are arrested daily in Pekin.
The natives allege that December Is
has been fixed as the date for a rising
against the foreigners in the capital.
No alarm is felt, however, as the
troops here are sufficiently numerous
to deal with the rising should one
occur.

WAS MURDERED.

Grand Rapids, Mich, Dec. THE

August of Louis Campbell, an old SOL
der of Greenville, Mich, a small city
in Montcalm county, about % miles

body was a bloodstained club. His
clothes were also found in the barn.
Just before Thanksgiving Aplin left
the city, saying he was going to this
city to spend a few days. Campbell's
friends Immediately began a search
of Alpin's barn with the result stated.
Aplin was traced to Bay City and cap
tured. .t

IN EXECUTIVE SESSION.
Senate Considers Matters Connected with
Hay-Pauncefote Treaty.

Washington, Dec. developments
in the senate in executive session in
connection with the Hay -Pauncefote
treaty, were: An agreement on the
part Of the senate to vote on the
amendment offered by the committee
on foreign affairs, providing for polio
ing of the canal, OH next Thursday at
8 O'Clock.
An amendment vas offered by
Teller striking out the treaty prohibit
ton against the fertilization Of the
Nicaragua canal when constructed;
conclusion Of Morgan's speech and a
speech by Teller in opposition to the
treaty.
The agreement for a vote on the
committee amendment was secured
Immediately after the executive SEES
sion began. 1t was reached by unani-
nous consent, as a result Of the re-
quest made by Lodge. Lodge did
fixed for a
vote on the treaty itself, believing that
the fate of the measure will be deter
mined by the vote on the amendment.

Willy JOSEPH.
Chamberlain Manages to Discomft the
Opposition.

London, Dec. 7-Chamberlain still
fills the political stage. His unexpect-
ed but adroit announcement in the
house Of commons today that a civil
government would be given to two
Boer republics, coupled with his
promise to limit farm burning and
other severe military measures, so far
as possible, has taken the bottom out
Of the amendment of the opposition to
the address. This new phase, COM
bined with the failure Of the Kruger
mission and the fact that the Worces-
ter Dutch congress passed off without
trouble, persuaded the public that the
South African situation is less
ing than has recently been supposed
and will help to accomplish the main
object on the government, securing
of the parliament to necessary
financial measures.
Thus although a session is likely to
be prolonged beyond the fortnight
which the government had hoped
would not be tie case. it will be less
stormy than was expected.
The remark of Asquith, radical
member for East Fifeshire, this Q
ing, that moving of the amendment
was justified by Chamberlain's decla-
rations was about the only thing left
for the liberals to say after the col
onial secretary sat down.

MANY Z
Opening of Bids for Naval Construction
Largely Witnessed.

Washington, Dec. Newer since the
birth Of the new navy has there been
such q gathering of ship builders and
metal kings as were assembled in the
office Of the secretary Of the navy at
noon today to witness the opening of
bids for the amount of naval construc-
ton, which Secretary Long denomi-
mated as the greatest this or any other
country had ever seen, involving the
placing Of about fifty millions. A
notable feature was an attempt on the
part Of the younger and smaller con-
Germs to break the line Of the ones
which have constructed nearly all of
the new navy until this time.
While it is not possible at this mo-
ment to forecast the results accurately,
there are indications that in at least
one instance and perhaps two instan-
ces, the attempts will be attended
with some degree of success, for it
looks as if some Of the work will be
bestowed upon a company which ap-
pears for the first time as a bidder for
construction Of armored ships. The
Pacific coast, too, presents a likely
candidate in the shape Of Moran Bros.
Because of the specifications it is
not possible to tell as yet which bids
are the lowest.
Secretary Long expressed himself
as pleased with the result so far as he
could judge from a hasty reading OF
the bids. He felt that on the whole
the latter were very liberal.

AIMED AT
Bill introduced for Amendment t
Constitution.

Washington, Dec. Representative
Taylor of Ohio, who was prominently
identified in the movement. to exclude
Brigham Roberts of Utah from a seat
i'll congress, today introduced a meas
ure intended to bring about federal
prohibition of polygamy.
It proposes a constitutional amend
ment for uniform laws on marriage
and divorce. Taylor says, however,
that his aim goes considerably beyond
the mere uniformity of such laws, and
is expressly designed to reach polyg-
amy and put all end to it. He regards
this form of remedy as the most
effective and far reaching. The meas
ure was introduced after a conference
of those interested in the subject and
although Taylor is not on the judi
cary committee, which will have
charge Of the measure, it was deemed
desirable to have HIM present the
matter and direct the active movement
which will begin in its behalf.

AN IRRESPONSIBLE DEPUTY.
Kruger Incident Causes Sharp Talk in
Reichstag.

. EanH T7EI-THF
Berlin, Dec. Tn the reichstag to-
day, answering Herr Rossicke's inter-
polation regretting that Kruger had
not been received, but had been turned
away from the gates Of Germany out
Of regard for another country, and
contrary to the feeling of the nation,
Count Won Posadowsky Webner, min
lister Of the interior, said that he
greatly regretted that Herr Rossicke
had not given previous notice
Of the question, as he would
have asked Count Won Buelow to ans
wer the difficult question in person.
He added that it was comparatively
easy for irresponsible deputies to
give expression to popular currents Of
opinion, but a man occupying the re-
sponsible post Of chancellor Of the Ger
mar empire and who was a%nswerable,
not only for the peace Of Germany, but
also, under certain circumstances for
the peace of the whole world, would
not allow himself to be influenced by
such popular and sentimental waves
of opinion. For the time there was
but one course to preserve the peace,
safety and welfare and interests of the
fatherland.

DISCUSSION OF SPECIAL PHIL
IPPINE COINAGE.
CABINET CONSIDERS PLAN
Secretary Root Will Probably
Ask Hearing on Matter
Before Congress.

Washington, Dec. THE cabinet
meeting today was largely devoted to
a discussion of the question of coinage
for the Philippine islands and az a re-
suit it is probable that the secretary of
war will ask for a hearing on the sub
ject before one of the committees of
congress.
Nearly all the business of the is
lands is tranacted in Mexican dollars
and the army commissaries and others
supplied with United States money
are al times greatly embarrassed in
making purchases from the Filipinos
by the fact that, knowing nothing of
our money or it's value, the latter
often refuse to accept it.
The proposition which seems to
have met with favor by the admins
tration is to purchase silver bullion at
the present market price and coin it
into distinctive dollars having a gold
value of about so cents each. These
dollars probably will contain a little
less silver than the present standard
dollars.
The scheme has not yet been worked
out in all of it's details, but as there is
at present a government coinage mint
in Manila it is hoped that by early ac-
ton of congress the new coins may be
put into circulation before a great
while, possibly before the war is over.
The cabinet also discussed the house
bill, revising the war revenue bill act
which proposes a cut Of about $40
600, 900 in the revenues. There is no
difference of opinion among the mem
bers of the administration on this sub
ject, all thinking that the cut is too
deep and agreeing that it would be
unwise in the extreme to make a cut
greater than $50, 900, 600.

ELEVATOR WRECKED.
Large Amount of Wheat Is Badly
Damaged.

Duluth, Dec 7-Shortly after 8
O'Clock there was a bad caving-in of
one of the walls of the new Peavey
annex on Rice's Point. The annex is
composed Of Is bins of concrete on
struction. They are 80 feet in height
and 33 feet in diameter and hold about
rs, 900 bushels of wheat. One of the
intermediate spaces vas filled with
grain to within about five feet of the
top. Evidently there was some de-
feet in the walls, for it gave way at a
point some distance down from the
top. This mass in falling struck the
opposite wall of the bin and plunged a
hole in it and through this some of
the concrete debris and about 5000
bushels of grain poured out on the ice.

DRUNKEN MAN REsPoAsIBLE.
Sleeping on Railroad Tracks Causes
Serious Accident.

Pittsburg, Dec. 8-The Cumberland
accommodation for Pittsburg on the
Baltimore & Ohio road tonight
crashed into a United Traction
filed with people at Rankin. Ono
man was killed outright, and his wife
SO badly hurt that she can hardly res
His baby was seriously injured
and a score Of other persons were
badly hurt.
The dead man is unknown and his
wife at a late hour tonight il still
unconscious from the effects Of her
injuries. The babe was found clasped
in the father arms with the mothers
body across them.
When the traction car reached ths
Baltimore & Ohio crossing at Rankin,
Conductor Gavin went forward to see
if the crossing was clear. He found 4
drunken man lying on the tracks Of
both the traction and railroad. When
aroused the drunken man showed
fight and Gavin had to drag him from
the tracks. When he had him clear of
the track the signal was given to the
motorman 20 go ahead. In the excite
ment the approach of the railroad
train was unnoticed and in spite Of
the engineer, who reversed and put
on his air, the engine struck the res
Of the street car, hurting it 30 feet,
horribly mangling it's human freight.
The man who was responsible for
the accident escaped injury and as yet

CLEO GIVEN
FIRST BLOW
HOUSE PASSES FAMOUS
CIRCUIT BILL.
PRonlBlTWE TAX IMPOSED
Dairy Men Gain Point in Battle
with Manufacturers of
Imitation Butter.

# Washington, Dec. THE house to
day passed the Circuit oleomargarine
bill by a vote of 1913 to 80. ..
The substitute offered by the min
GRITTY of the committee on agriculture,
which imposed additional restrictions
on the sale Of oleomargarine to pre-
vent it's fraudulent sale as butter and
increased the penalties for violations,
was defeated by a vote of 113 to IT'S.
The bill as passed makes all articles
known as oleomargarine, butterlne,
imitation butter or imitation cheese
transported into any state or territory
for consumption or sale subject to the
police power Of such state or territory,
but prevents any state OF territory
from forbidding the transportation or
sale of such product when produced
and sold free form celebration in iml-
tation of butter. The bill increases
the tax on oleomargarine colored in
imitation of butter from 2 to 10 cents
per pound and decreases the tax on
.oleOmargarine uncolored from 2 to "a
cent per pound.
: A long and interesting debate pre-
coded the vote, in the course OF which
those who favored the Grout bill
claimed that an additional tax on
colored oleomargarine was the only
effective remedy for preventing fraud
upon the public, while those who op-
posed it c%ontended that fraud would
be prevented by the substitute and
that the real purpose of the Grout
bill was to destroy the oleomargarine
industry.
Payne, chairman Of the ways and
means committee, gave notice at the
close of the session that he would cal
up the wal revenue reduction act prob
ably on Tuesday.

Berkeley, CAL, Dec. Under the
patronage of the United States Phil

farm will be started about 200 miles

seeds and plants from this country
will be tested. Professor Bernard
Moses, Of the commission, has written
to the University Of California regard

gestion the state institution will send
from it's experiment station the re.
quired seeds and plants. Work on the
experiment farm will be conducted by
Phelps Whitmarsh.
