THE INQUEST.
Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth visited
the house Immediately after the TRACE
dy and then summoned coroner's jury
to pass upon the case.

inquest, Henry CuIman and DIR. Her

Culman testified that he lived at the
Evans house, that he heard a scream
| while there yesterday morning and

Newman lying down in the bath room,
and revolver at his side. No one was
in the bath room other than the de-

DIR. Herbert's statement was as fol-
lows: ct was called at Z a. m. this 4th
day of June at the old McCully resi-
dence. King street, and found the de-
ceased, Mr.. Newman, lying on the floor,
in the bath room, his feet towards the
window and head near the door:
breathing with difficulty. and blood
also through nose and down throat.
ION examination found a bullet
wound in right temple, passing through
and fracturing the base of skull and
trated through temporal bone into OPP
posite OefO side of head.
He was quite unconscious. The
wound must have been caused by the
impact of a pistol pressed close against
the head. He died at 7:45 a. m. Death
was due to fracture of the base of the
skull, with laceration of brain and
caused by a bullet wound
through head as described above"

ABOUT THE PHARMACY LAW.
Concerning the report that Newman's |
suicide was caused by his belief that |
the pharmacy law debarred him from |
business, an intimate friend of Mr.. |
Newman said yesterday: Il don't think |
that was it. Mr.. Newman did mention |
that yesterday but appeared to have !
arranged matters SO there would be no |

years ago, excepting the one change in |
the size of the board said Mr. Geo. |
w. Smith when questioned regarding |
due to his failure to qualify under the
new pharmacy law, and that it had
been charged that it was aimed directly
at him. Personally Mr.. Newman was |
on friendly terms with me. The law is
the same as that in New York and did
not pass previously because of lack OF
of its provisions. This
year the other houses asked me to
again have the bill prepared, and it
was aimed principally at the japanese.
People who had suffered also by the
errors of these same careless japanese
made the same request, and the bill
was presented TO the Legislature. Mr.
Newman told me on Sunday that he
had made arrangements to qualify un-

A tint in the warm gray sky,
A sound of loosened rivers,
And Spring goes by.
A stir at the rim of winter,
A wing on the crisp midnight,
A herald from dusk to cleaning,

A stir in the dawn re-arOusing

CURES CATlRRH.
"Hyomei the Most Wonderful Cure for Catarrh Ever Discovered"
 Says E. c. Fowler.

Do not try to cure catarrh by taking drugs into the stomach; it cannot be cured in that manner. The only way Ia which this too common disease can be cured is through direct application that will kill the bacilli of catarrh and prevent their growth.
 Hyomei is the only known method of treatment that accomplishes this. It is the simplest, most pleasant and the only absolute cure for catarrh that has ever been discovered
 Thousands of unsolicited testimonials have been received from the most promi- .Tent men and women in the country who have been cured by this remarkable rem edy. Ministers, bankers, lawyers, even eminent physicians have given strong testlmonals as to the remarkable powers of Hyomei to cure catarrh.
 The complete Hyomei outfit costs but S1 OO consisting of an inhaler, dropper and sufficient Hyomel to last several weeks This will effect a cure fin ordinary cases, but for chronic and deep-seated cases of catarrh. longer use may be necessary, and then extra bottles of HyOmeii can be obtained for 5Oc It is not alone the best Git might be called the only) method of curing catarrh, but 1t Is also the most economical.
 MT. E. G. Fowler has so much confi- dence in the power of Hyomei to cure catarrh. that he will for q limited time, seII this medicine under his personal guarantee to refund the money if the pur- chasers can say that 1t did not help them.

 The letter MT. Fowler refers to reads as follows:
 Dear Sir--A couple of months ago l contracted a severe cold, which it seemed impossible to cure. It settled on my lungs, causing a hard cough, which kept me awake nights, and soon weakened my system so that I was unable to attend to my duties. Vinol, that delicious tasting cod liver oil preparation, was recommend ed to me by friend who had used it with wonderful results. I purchased a couple of bottles of our local druggist, MT. Conover, and began to take it. The sec
