Peculiar Features in Case.

Surgeon Z. D. Stokes U. S. N, who is
assisting the prosecution, cross-examined
DR.. Ames and the other medical witnesses
offered by the defense, particularly with
regard to the evidence that there was
paralysis of the side of Branch's body,
whereas they indicated that the probable
injury was on the same side. In answer
witnesses said that Branch's case pre-
scented some very unusual features
DIR. l.. w. Glazebrook of Washington,
who is assisting the defense as medical ad-
visor and who saw the autopsy. was the
last expert witness for the defense. From
what he saw during the autopsy the wit
ness was satisfied that the fatal injuries
were due to Branchs having hit his head
against a hard, unyielding substance, such
as a floor or wall, and could not have been
due to the blows of fists encased in punch
ing bag gloves.
During the course of the proceedings
today United States District Attorney John
c. Rose, who is assisting in the prosecu-
ton, gave notice to the court that he would
object to any further evidence to the effect
that Branch's life might have been saved
by a different method of treatment This
fact, Mr.. Rose said would, il proved, have
no bearing on the case. The court made no
ruling. as the point was not raised in con-
nection with any particular question.

Some of the Effects of the Building of
the Tsthmian Canal.

The construction of the Isthmian
Canal will stimulate railway building
10 the entire South and Southwest, and
there are signs that this factor has
already entered into the situation.
Last year the South Atlantic States
built 483 miles of new railway, the
Gulf and Mississippi Valley States 677
miles, and the South Western States
l,24S miles, Or considerably more
than half the total constructed.
Along with the new facilities for the
worlds commerce at Panama will
come the comprehensive improvement
of the Mississippi and its navigable
tributaries. The older States of the
South will have a general business
awakening such as they have never
known before, and will be permanently
in the track of some OF the earth
main current OF trade. What has been
going on in the Southwest for several
years is based on the instructive, un.
erriDg foresight of the people. There
are some sections Of the country that
would rather the canal we're never
opened, but public sentiment at large
will carry it through:
The length Of the canal will be forty
seven miles, and 1t is expected to cost
not less in round numbers, than
5000, 000, 900. Should 1t be a sea.level
canal, the cost will perhaps be afourth
more.

WELCOME WORDS
TO

Women who suffer with disorders pecu-
liar to their sex should write TO DR.. Pierce
and receive free the advice OF a physician
of over forty years experience skilled
and successful specialist in the diseases
of women. Every letter has the most
careful consideration and Is regarded as
sdcredly confidential. Many sensitively
modest women write fully to DR.. Pierce
what they would shrink from telling to
their local physician. The local physician
is pretty sure to say that he cannot do
anything without an examination" DR..
Pierce holds that these distasteful exam
nations are generally needless, and that
no woman, except in rare cases, should
submit to them.
DR.. Pierce's treatment cures in the
privacy of your home. His "Favorite
Prescription" has cured hundreds of
thousands Of bad cases. 1t is the only
medicine of its kind that is the product
Of a regularly graduated physician. Some

How Not to Succeed.

Everyone knows that the people
who succeed have implicit confidence
in themselves feeling that a not
exist along with the consciousness of
some unrecognized weakness. Where
they are least strong they have learned
to be most careful.
The surest way to fail is to modeslly
doubt il one can do the thing desired.
The survival of the fittest means the
sdrvlval of those who are best able to
take care of them seIves. In all social
conditions, and especially in the
business world, the independent,
aggressive, fearless natures win.
"The men whom l have seen succeed
best IN life," said Charles Kingsley,
"have always been cheerful and
hopeful men, who went about their
business with smiles on their faces,
and took the changes and chances of
this mortal life ike men, facing rough
and smooth alike as it came"
You must o expect much sympathy
or help from others. In the end you
W II win their applause, but IN the
meanwhile very little consideration of
any kind. Your happiness will come
from The knowledge that you have
done your wotE thoroughly and
honestly,
To do this is possible, whatever has
gone before - The Earth.
