MILLIONAIRE'S POOR STOMACH.
The worn out stomach of the over

public prints as horrible example of

of great wealth. But millit naires are
not the only ones who are afflicted
with bad stomachs. The proportion
is far greater among the toilers. Dys.

among these people. and they suffer
far worse tortures than the millionaire

1t is evident that some person is un-
dertaking to convey to the committee
and is taking advantage Of the fact
that the evidence Is not published, to
state it falsely for the purpose of in
juring General Wood in the public's
estimation; so that, while your COM

as to how you ought to act will be
based upon an entirely different and

A claim was presented to the Board

as an equivalent for exhibits in a muir
der case tried twenty years ago. The
exhibits have disappeared. The bill
was presented by w. e. Dutil, the
father Of whom was murdered by
George Jones, whose long Incarceration
in the County Jail here made the case
famous and was only ended a few
weeks ago by the murderer's death
after fighting off paying the extreme
penalty of his crime for two decades.
Shortly after Jones death young
Dutil went before Judge Hall and Sc
cured an order for his fathers watch
and chain. seal and ring. They were
found in Jones' possession after the
murder and were used as evidence
against the accused. Jones was grant
ed a new trial, but the case dragged
along until death expunged it from the
calendar.
After securing the order for the
property Dutil went from County Clerk
to District Attorney and Chief Of Po-
lice in a vain quest, but no trace of
the missing things can be found. The
jewelry has disappeared. County
Clerk Cook said to-day that there have
been fourteen County Clerks since the
