London, Nov. 2.-George l.. Watson,
the yacht designer, is inviting esti-

err. Haste is stipulated, the intention
being to have her in readiness for the

ciOus Circumstances.

ciOus Circumstances.
Washington, Oct. 81 Secretary
Hitchcock has received a telegram
from Portland, Or, announcing the in
dictment of three more persons in con-
nection with the land frauds in that
state. The telegram gave the names
of the persons indicted as Emma l..
Watson, Guy Huff and Norman Will
liams. The woman is charged with
conspiracy in conjunction with the pro-
ceedings against Miss Ware, who al
ready is under indictment, and Will
liams is charged with forgery. The
proceeding against Huff is forgery, but
his is an independent case.
Upon being asked if he had anything
to say apropos of the indictments, Sec
rotary Hitchcock replied:
Nothing except that the ball goes
rolling on. There have been eeven in
dictments within a week, and there
will be still many more. Our success
to the present time indicates pretty
clearly, think. that our investigations
have been quite thoroughly conducted.
$50 far most of the prosecutions
have been directed against those engag-
ed in fraudulent proceedings under the
timber and stone act, and it now APP
peras that many fiagi ant Irregularities
have been discovered. Innumerable
instances of the invasion of public
lands by people in large companies
have been reported to the department
from day to day for the past year and
more.
Come bv Carloads.
SIN many cases people have gone to
the Pacific coast states from the states
farther east To enter lands under the
timber and stone laws. The arrival of
car loads at time has been reported
and many of the members of these par
ties were women. In one or two cases
during the vacation period Of last sum-
mer, entire carloads of female school
teachers hailing from the Middle West
ern states made tours of the Pacific
coast, and all entered lands.
SIN other instances entire families
of four or five persons each have come
in from the outside and have made en-
tries of lands. So far as known, no ev-
idence of fraud has been discovered in
these specified cases, but the depart
ment contends that in view of the fact
that over $500 is required to complete
the acquisition of title under the tim
Der and stone law some of these entries
are at least suspicious.
Gin Other cases entries have been
made in the names of purely fictitious
persons. The connivance of officials is

BUDS AND FLOWERS OF
HOME LIFE.
Paine's Celery Compound Makes and Keeps
the Children Well and Strong.
Mothers Make It the Home Medicine
For che Little Ones.

The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers of our homes. Without their
prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would
be desolate. They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and youth, if we expect
them to ripen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times of i'll health and suffering.
We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy ewes, nervous movements, and twltch-
ines of limbs and muscles. They complain OF
headache, drowsiness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsia,
and indigestion. All such symptoms and all
ments mean that the seeds of disease viii have
a fast and firm hold, unless proper measures
are taken to restore perfect condition OF
health.
Thousands of wise and prudent parents have
made their children happy, healthy, and vIgor-
Gus by giving them natures medicine, Pane s
Celery Compound. In many severe and COM
dictated cases, Paine's Celery Compound has
restored health when the little ones were given
up by physicians.
If your dear ones are not as hearty, strong
and rugged as they should be, Try the health

Prohibitive Charges For Mater
ial May Tie Up Chicago
Street Improvement
COMBINATIONS ARE TALKED OF
Secretary of the Board of improvements
Hints at Pool That Cuts Out Com
petition and Keeps the Price of All
Kinds of Material Out of Reach -
Other News.

Chicago, Aug. 14-Prohibitive charg-
bi, ions, threaten to tie up the stree,
Improvements in Chicago. according tC
John May secretary of the board OF
local improvements. His statements
yesterday may lead to an investigation
upon the return of the mayor from his
hunting trip Tuesday.
IF the price of paving goes any
higher we will stop all improvements
in Chicago Mr.. May said. The last
two or three years have witnessed eX-
traordinary advances in prices of paw
ing materials, and the limit has been
more than reached If there is another
advance we will stop the work l
would be willing to tell the grand jury
what know about pools and combine
TONS"
For more than a year the work of re-
pairing and paving streets has been
hampered by advances in the price OF
material, and in many cases work has
been delayed to Il great extent The in
crease in the cost 30 the city comes in
the additional price which the city is
compelled TO pay the contractor
The advance in the cost, of material
forces the contractor to submit higher
BIDS for the street paving. so that the
city is compelled to pay the additional
cost.
Water pipe which the city was able
to purchase three years ago for $40 a
ton cannot be purchased now for less
than $50 a ton and when bids are sub
mitted only one bidder submits an esti-
mate. The cost of brick is now almost
prohibitory. Brick that could be pur-
chased two years ago for 81 yard
now costs the city $3.50 yard Maca-
dam that formerly cost 90 cents yard
now costs s1.50, and asphalt has in
creased from 50 to $3.50
Other material used in improvements
has increased in like proportion. The
board of local Improvement can con-
tinue to spread special assessments, but
the city officials may consider it unjust
to impose upon the public by making
it pay the larger amount of the cost.
The prices already are almost pro-
hibitory." Mr.. May said. and l have
no hesitation in saying that if the prices
increase much more the city viii not
impose the increased cost upon the
public"
