Jail.
Henry T.. Palmer, who claims to be
a sketch artist, was arrested at Occur
d'Alene, Sunday, on charge of issu-
ing worthless checks. Ed Swain,
proprietor OF restaurant, and IL.
Isington, a saloon man, claimed to

Palmer. The checks were drawn on
the First National bank Of Spokane"

men were not aware that no such
bank was in existence.
Palmer came to Occur d'Alene

Wash, with his wife and her child.
The couple were married in Spokane
month ago. The wife says her
husband was about to leave her in a

STOLEN TIMBER.
Millions Of Feet, Says Commits

Idaho State Land Commissions
Charles J. Munson has been notified
by the state land department a
Boise that his criminal case agains
the Lewis Lumber company OF Coeu
d'Alene for alleged illegal cutting O
timber from state lands has been dis
missed.
''The reason it was dismissed,
said Mr.. Munson, "was because there
was correspondence between the Nor
rison land board and the Lewis Lum.
Der company that I knew nothing
about until the state land board sent
me the letters. This dismissal OF
the criminal case does not stop the
civil action for the value Of 10000
fedt OF first class timber"
Relative to the personal reference
by the lumber company III its cores
pondence to the land board, Mr.. Mum
son said: "They wanted me to settle
with them on a cash basis without
referring the matter To the state
board, and because refused to do
otherwise than to report all the facts
to the hoard they got mad and re-
sorted To personal abuse because /
would not do business with them.

MILITIA TARGET SHOOTING.
Much Interest Manifested
Company "E".

L
Following are the names of those
making a score Of 13 or more out
OF a possible IS at the militia
target practice, Saturday, June 81:

blute, ~.
500 yd,Edelblute, 16; Spoerry
II; Straub, I8.
600 I'D. Spoerry, I3.
The members of Company "E"
are taking great interest in these
Saturday afternoon practices at the
range. Nearly all are imbued with
a friendly rivalry as to who can
lombard the target with the most
telling effect, the chief aim always
being to hit the bullseye, everyone
being agreed that the black spot
should contain at least as many
orihces as can be put into it with
krag bullets.
The course for firing, marked
out in the regulations, provides
for ranges of 200, 500, 500, 600,
300 and 1000 yards. The shooting
begins at 200 yards, each man fir
ing FIVE shots. All those making
score of I3 or more, out Of the
possible IS, 60 back to 800 yards,
, while those who, fail try again at
200 yards. One must make at
least 13 at one range before he
goes back to longer range. Each
man is allowed uniform number
of shells, and if one cannot get the
requisite score at the first range he
is doomed to do all his shooting at
that range during the course while
his more proficient comrades get a
taste of the longer distance firing.
The same target is used for the
400 as for the 900 yard range; be-
yond that target with. larger
bullseye is substituted. At 400
yards the shooting is offhand; at
900, kneeling or sitting, and at
500 lying down. AS steadiness Of
nerve is prime requisite at 400
yards, off hand, those making a
low score at this range often dis
play better craftsmanship at the
longer ranges with rest.
Company "E" is now in the
midst of the first course. After
ward comes the use Of silhonettes,
advances and firing by company,
squads and platoons. There is
also a course in rapid firing.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful il is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature.
but few realize its value when taken
into the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs' the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the
best charcoal and the most for the
money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lo-
zenges they are composed of the finest
powdered Willow charcoal, and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form or
rather in the form of large, pleasant
tasting loZenges the charcoal being
mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condition
of the general health, better complex
ion, sweeter breath and purer blood
and the beauty of ii is, that no posi-
bic harm can result from their con-
tinued use, but on the contrary, great
benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal, says: 81 adj
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to
all patients suffering from gas in
stomach and bowels and to clear the
complexion and purify the breath,
mouth and throat; | also believe the
liver is greatly benefited by the daily
use of them; they cost but twenty
five cents a box at drug stores, and
although in some sense a patent prep
aration, yet | believe / get more and
better charcoal in Stuarts Charcoal
Lozenges than in any of the ordinary
charcoal tablets"
