ASPHALT LANDS
WILL Be SOLD
Body of 1890 Acres in the Indian
Territory Soon to Go on
the Market

The Tishomingo Indian Territory
folio, which the United States Geologf-
cal survey has now ready for distriu-
ton, will be of interest to people seek
ing investment in asphaltic deposits
OF the 1899 acres of asphalt land seq
regated from the possessions of the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations and
destined for sale at public auction less
than a year hence, about 2,160 acres
lie in the Tishomingo quadrangle.
It will be remembered that the United
States made a treaty with the Choctaw
and Chickasaw tribes on March 81,
1902 in accordance with which all de-
posits Of coal and asphalt on their
lands were to be sold at the expiration
of two years after the final ratification
of the treaty. In the interval, the Sec
rotary of the interior was to ascertain
what lands were principally valuable
because of their deposits of coal or
asphalt and to segregate and reserve
them from allotment. In accordance
with this provision. Mr.. Joseph A. Taft
Of the United States geological survey
was appointed to examine the lands
and segregate those distinguished for
their coal or asphalt deposits. over
437.73f acres of coal land were segre-
gated and 1899 acres of asphalt land.
Mr.. Taft is the author of the Tisho-
mingo folio. AS asphalt is the only
mineral product of the quadrangle that
has been developed to any consider
able extent, he has naturally laid spe-
cial stress on the descriptions of its
| occurrence.

GOLD OUTPUT
DAZZLES IMAGINATION
Financial journal Estimates Ihat
Value in One Year VIII Be
Fully $4,000, 900.

The statement published by our Gov
ernment that English enthusiasts are
looking for a future output Of gold in
the TransvaaI of from s12O, 100000 TO
$3.50, 900, ,OO0 year, is stimulating to the
imagination. just as the realization Of
this prediction would be stimulating to
the speculation and business of the
world In the first six months of this
year the output of gold in the Trans
vaal amounted to about s3S. .OO0. 900.
This is at the rate of s760OO.OOO for the
year Last years production amount
ed to over s61, 100000. The largest pro-
duction was in 1898. being s79. 9.21S.O 600
The prospect is therefore that the pro-
duction of 1904 will nearly equal that of
1S9S-in other words. will return to the
normal yield of this region. Coolie Ia

the investigators.
When asked to view the bodies of his
dead relatives so that he might supply
the identification required by the law,
he complied in perfunctory manner.
To all questions asked him by the Cor
oner he gave the shortest answers pos
sible, and the only time that he dis
played any feeling was when one of the
interrogatories implied that he knew
more than ne had told to the jurors.
Then il was that he showed that
he was becoming angered. His an
swers from then on were snappy and
ii was with a sigh of relief that he
left the witness stand when the Coro-
ner abandoned all hope of receiving
any assistance from him.
THORIES ARE EXPLODED.
In some manner yet unexplained, a
story was set in circulation last night
that the elder Weber had on several
occasions ouarreled with his wife.
The story undoubtedly was intended
The San Francisco call., 1904-11-13

to direct suspicion toward the dead,
and thus shield the guilty. If such was
the purpose of the story. it signally
failed, for the autopsy held on Weber 5
body showed conclusively that the
wound which caused his death was not
seIf-infiicted.
The robbery theory was soon aban-
doned, for the pockets of the cloth
ing worn by Weber when he met
death contained 800 and in the piano
that was removed from the burning
house by neighbors was found $40.
From the outset young Weber inti-
mated that he thought the crimes had
been committed either by a madman
or a robber.
No one could be found who had
seen a madman or any stranger in
the vicinity of the house, or. in fact,
in Auburn on the day of the murder,
so the robbery theory. for a time.
gained a few supporters.
The finding of the money on Weber S
body and in the piano exploded the
remaining theory. and the officers COM
menced their search closer at home.
The sequel came tonight in the arrest
of young Weber.

What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall to
many of US the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gave US our
daily dose of sulphur and molasseS
every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure-all,
and. mind you. this Old-fashioned rem
edy was not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and a large
quantity had to be taken TO get any
effect.
NOWADAYS we get all the beneficial
effects Of sulphur in a palatable. con-
ceutrate form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than a tablespoon
full Of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research ana expert
ment have proven that the best sulphur
for medicinal use is that obtained from
Calcium calcium Sulphide) and sold
in drug stores under the name of
Stuart's Calcium Waters They are
small chocolate coated pellets and con-
tain the active medicinal principle of
sulphur in a highly concentrated, ef-
fective form.
Few people are aware Of the value OF
this form Of sulphur in restoring and
maintaining bodily vigor and health:
sulphur acts directly on the liver, and
excretory organs and purifies and en-
riches the blood by the prompt elimina-
tion Of waste material
Our erandmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and molas-
ses every spring and fall. but the cru
ditv and impurity Of ordinary flowers
of sulphur were often worse than the
disease. ard cannot compare with the
modern concentrated preparations OF
sulphur of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure con-
stipation and purify the blood in a way
that often surprises patient and physi-
clan alike.
DR. r. NJ. Wilkins while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was su-
perior TO any other form. He says:
For liver, kidney and blood troubles,
especialIv when resulting from consti-
patton or malaria, nave peen sur
nrised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters In patients
suffering from boils and pimples and
even deep-seated carbuncles, have re-
peatedly seen them dry up and disap-
near in four or five days. leaving the
SKIN clear and smooth. Although
Stuart's Calcium Waters is a proprie-
tary article. and sold by druggists. and
for that reason tabooed by many physi-
Clans yet I know of nothing so safe
and reliable for constipation, liver and
kidney troubles and especially in all
forms Of skin disease as this remedy
At any rate people who are tired OF
pills, cathartics and so-caIled blood
purifiers" will find in Stuart's Cal
cium Waters a far safer more palat-
able and effective preparation

Weber was mainly questioned as to
what he did and how he acted after he
arrived at his home while it was on
fire. He said he was a sufferer from a
weak heart, but that mentally he was
in the full possession Of his faculties.
When asked how he could account
for the position of the bodies as they
lay in the burning house, he said he
had no theory to advance.
The first time he showed any emo
ton was when the District Attorney
asked him about going on a recent
coon hunt and who his companions
were. He sharply declined TO answer
the question and it was not until Cor
oner Shepard compelled him TO do so
that he finally gave the names of the
members Of the party. Among those
who accompanied him on the hunt
was Adrian Wills, whose overcoat he
had borrowed for the occasion.
He was then asked if he remarked
when he returned the Overcoat: We'll,
I'm going away, and you will never
see me again" He denied having
made any such remark. When asked
if there had been a pistol in the
pocket he became excited and replied
emphatically no" He also denied
ever having owned pistol or having
had one in his possession or any 32-
calfber cartridges. He admitted, how
ever. that he had looked at pistol
in a gun store in Auburn and also
that he had looked al 80 cartridges
at the same time.

the proceedings and while Adolph was

The Secret of Generosity.

"Would there be so many mar
riage wrecks if the secret of gener
osity were learned ?" asks Lille
Hamilton French aptly in the July
DelineatOr. This author, who, of
course, writes her thoughtful articles
on ."The Joy Of Living" from the
woman's standpoint, goes on to tell
of two women who found their hus-
bands exacting. and of the happy
results brought about by the gener-
GUS yielding Of the wife in one of
these cases. The writer concludes {:
"But the generous are always i'm
posed upon. They end by being
robbed" the little soul exclaims
"People drain us when we give too
much, and then when they have all
they want they throw us over"
The little soul can never understand
that the generous soul is never rob-
bed. It is like the sun itself-it
Its business is to add to
life the joy of its cheer"
