five years in the penitcntiary for OBJ
tanning money under false prctenses.
This is the third term in the Iowa
state prison for MarsOn.
The game he worked in this city
was to adycrtisc0for Young men desir-

proposed the erection of big fac
tory. Men of means took an interes t
i'm him and his enterprise, and he
opened an office and employed two
stenographcrs and a force of clerks.
He was in clover, but his newmadc
friends finally began to press him so
closely regarding his projected fac
tory that he found the safest move
for him was via the tall uncut.
Next he was heard from at Musca-

Germ Diseases.

These are the known germ diseases.
All that medicine can do for these troubles
is to help Nature overcome the germs,
and such results are indirect and I'M
certain. Liquozone kills the germs,
wherever they are, and the results are in
evitable. By destroying the cause of the
trouble, it invariably ends tie disease,

Liquozone does that. Oxygen is
Natures greatest tonic-the very source
of vitality. Its effects are collaborating
purifying, vitalizing. Nothing else in the
world is so good for you. But germs are
vegetables; and this excess of oxygen

We spend Il days in making each

liquid Oxygen-a product which will cure

medical authority, the world over.

Liquozone alone kills germs in the body

and forever the cause CT any germ disease.

you, and it cannot be taken internally.

This company, after testing Liquozone
for two years in the most difficult germ
diseases, paid $780, 900 for the United
States rights That is by far the highest
price ever paid for similar rights on any
scientific discovery.
We publish this fact to show you the
value of Liquozone. The most worthless
product may have great claims made
about it; but men don't pay a price like
that save for a discovery of remarkable
worth to humanity.

LATTER'S WIDOW FILES PROOF
Notification Comes Through the
German Consul at
Chicago.

Mrs. Anna Krohn, of this city, has
been notified through the German
consul at Chicago that an estate has
been left her husband, the late Mar
Gus krohn, the well-known florist, for
years Il resident at the corner of
Twcnty-fourth street and Fifth ave
npe. Mr.. Krohn died three years ago.
Mrs. krohn submitted her proofs

lived with her husband in Davenport
in the SOS. but that the family moved
to Rock Island 16 years ago, where
her husband passed away Jan. -, 1900
instead Of 1899, as the German consul
had stated.
Mrs. krohn stated that her deceas-
ed husband had a father and brother
living in Germany and that She had
often heard him mention an estate
before his death. At one time, she
stated, he intended to go to Germany
and inquire into the matter, but i'll
health prevented him.
On the day e his death some attor-
ney from Chicago was>in Rock Island
inquiring into the matter and some
time afterward she wrote Il letter to
Mr.. Krohn's brother in Germany. but
received no answer fer Il long time.
When it came it was very unsatisfac-
tory.

She states that she does not know
how large an estate was left, but
thinks it belongs. or did belong, to the
mother Of Mr.. Krohn, whom She
learned has, passed away.
Mrs. Krohu brought with her Il Ger

examined these documents and found
them to be perfectly legal and all of

OF PRODUCTS OF MINES OF. THE
STATE CAUSES WARM DIS
CUSTOM IN HOUSE.
Oviatt and Hardin Oppose trr
Measure on the Ground That It
Would Retard Development Of
Mining Industry in Wyoming -
Two New Bills Introduced.

CHEYENNE, WYo., Feb. 7.-(Sbecidl to
The Rebnbiicdn.)-The House in com
mittee of the whole had a warm discus
sion this morning on house bill No. 81,
to tax the products of the mines of the
state. The bill was opposed vigorously
by Messrs. Oviatt and Hardin, they tax
ing the ground that the cost of mining
in no two mines i'll the state is the same
and that a tax upon their products could
not be equitably levied. Some mines
can be worked, they said, for 10 per cent
and perhaps a mine in the same district
could not be worked profitably for less
than 80 per cent. The bill provides a
uniform tax No definite action was
taken on the bill at the morning session
of the committee.
The following bills we're discussed:
House bill No. 81, providing for a spe-
cial tax for the maintenance of the Wy
oming general hospital; recommended
for passage.

Big Horn County Stockgrowers' Asso-
citation; indefinitely postponed.

spectors of horses.
No. I2o, by Mr.. Oviatt, concerning the
liability of parents and guardians i'll the
matter of education of children.
In committee of the whole the state
depository bill was considered and the
amendment providing that the law shall
take effect July I, 1903, was voted down,
leaving the time for the taking effect OF
the law as January, 1907. The committee
