Health and Beauty.

A poor complexion is usually the re-
suit of a torpid liver or irregular ac-
ton of the bowels. Unless nature s
refuse is carried off 1t will surely cause
impure blood. Pimples, boils and other
eruptions follow. This is natures
method Of throwing off the poisons
which the bowels failed to remove. De-
Wits Little Early Risers are world ia.
nous for remedying this condition.
They stimulate the liver and promote
regular and healthy action of the bow
els, but never cause gripping, cramps
or distress. Safe pills.

SCHOOL BOARD IN DANGER.
THREATENED WITH LAW SUIT.
SkiIIfuIIy Avoided Trouble In Accepting Bids
AL For School.

and Josiah Wigley were not considered
by the committee, as they said they
believed they We're not responsible bid-
Gers.
A motion was finally made, to get
the matter before the Board, that the
bid of Geo. w. Carmichael be accept
ed, A substitute motion was made to
the effect that the bid OF Geo. Crisp
& Son be accepted. This was a bid on
building of common brick and stone
trimmings.
Now 1t appears that Hunt & Wigiey
had bid lower in every case and con-
tlngency except one, and they had re-
tanned Judge Stuart to find out just
why their bids We're not considered.
The Judge, representing them, stated
to the Board, that unless Hunt and
Wigley be given the contract, prOvio-
ed the Board decided on the material
in which they had made the lowest
Board would be the defendant The
substitute motion to accept the Crisp
bid was lost, and the original motion to
accept the Carmichael bid was also
lost. The Crisp bid, which was voted
on and lost was the only one that was
lower than Hunt and Wigley bid,
and was for common brick and stone
trimmings, the figure being $40.379.
1t was moved that this proposition
be reconsidered. The motion carried
and Crisps proposal was again be.
fore the meeting After extensive ar.
gument the motion to accept this bid
was finally carried. This was the
only one the Board could accept, avoid
accepting Hunt ana Wigley bid
which 1t seems was not desirable, anc
avoid law suit.
1t is estimated that in addition to the
contractors estimate, it will cost $40,
900 to get the school ready for occu
pancy, so that the building, when fl
nally ready for opening will represent
an expenditure Of about $4,000.

the Week.
Tom Jenkins and the Moving
Pictures Tonight.

Tonight, at the Grand Opera house,
for the first time, Tom jenkins will
face an audience at the head of his
own company. With him will be some
of the best acrobntlc and athletic trick
turns before the theater-going public,
and together with the moving pictures
of the Rnhln-Jiferies fight, and the
Young Corbett' 'McGovern fight, they
make an attraction that will doubt
less be seen by great number Of
people.
The fight pictures are OF especial
interest to an Akron audience, and
In view OF the different stands that
have been taken here, regarding the
conduct of Gus Rubin, when he
fought jim Jeffries, they will aid In
clearing up the mystery as far as the
opinions of Gus friends and enemies
are concerned. The pictures are said
to be remarkably clear.
| Tom Jenkins, who has wrestled his
way to the very fore in worlds ath-
letlcs, offers $50 to hny one from the
audience or the city whom he cannot
throw In 10 minutes.
He will also wrestle with doc"

WAYSIDE NOTES.

band of good horses, belonging on the
 ranche where we were would come
 down to water, but no one at the
 place had any authority to hire them
 out. It was tto paraphrase Coleridge's
 Ancient Mariner) a case of
 Horses, horses everywhere
 Nor any nag to ride"
 About Il o'clock Sefor Varela rode Tn with a mule and two horses which he would hire to us; but the price had raised to nearly double that agreed upon the previous day. With a calm imperturbability he insisted that we
 had misunderstood him the preceding
 day. We assured him that Don Car. los Flores had understood the agree ment the same way as we. Then Don
 Carlos misunderstood. There was no
 answering that logic, so we gave in, accepted the mounts at the advanced price, and quickly prepared to start.
 1t was about noon when we got away. and we retraced our route to Terais over about league of the way-to the entrance to the Puerto de las Guasj. mas. q have since learned that the pass takes it's name from variety of large trees growing in the caflon. and not from the birds in the trees. When We pointed to their feathered beauties and asked their name the guide mis. understood us and thought we were asking about the trees.
 As we left the ranche we were ioin. ed oy man riding smart mule who introduced himself as Sehor Serania merchant at Soyopa, en route to Hermosillo, which place he assured us he would reach Sunday evening. We pressed him into service to mail some letters for us when he should reach that city, and wished we had mounts which could travel like that mule.
 As we entered la Puerta de las Guasimas we thought the guide was taking us back to the Delavan mine. but in short distance beyond the entrance the canon divided and we took up the south branch. We fol- lowed a good wagon road which the guide informed Us led to the Colorado miDe, where Colonel J. w. Bryan of Washington, D. C., erected a ten stamp mill some three years ago. The mine is said to be very rich. but | for some reason it is not now working
 After crossing the divide the road led off to the left, and our trail con- | tinued on through the pass in a north. easterly direction, coming out of the pass at Llano Colorado, lerroneously designated CerrO Colorado in my sec ond batch of Wayside Notes the loca- tion of the placer mines near the ruined church, which structure we had seen from the summit of Zupache | mountain the preceding day. Upon all . sides were many evidences of the work done by the gold hunters of former time-ditches, trenches and washed ground lying in hummocks and ridges, the earth being of d brick red color and surrounding the church were the ruins ofmany dwellings. The town must have been of goodly size. The church was of adobe with stone { tower, and is slowly tumoling into ruin.
