NOT TO BE ARBITRATED.
So Declares Roosevelt of Claims OF
Creditors Against Southern
States.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, Jan. 11.-If the arbi-
tration treaties now pending before
the United States Senate are emascu-
lated the President will withdraw
them from consideration.
The President has impressed upon
members of Congress, particularly of
the Senate that he regards the arbi-
tration treaties and a formidable
American navy as the best assurance
of peace the United States possibly
could have. He told several callers
today, therefore that he wanted the
treaties ratified and the naval program
carried out without serious modifica-
ton.
The Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations today continued considera-
ton of the arbitration treaties. Sena-
tor Bacon proposed an amendment
providing that interests of State shall
not be arbitrated, but no action was
taken The treaties are opposed in
their present form by Southern Sena-
tors who do not wish to have their
States involved by reason of bonds
held abroad and which have been re-
pudiated by the States. The treaties
will be taken up again at the next
meeting of the committee in cOnnec-
ton with the subjects of these treaties
the President has addressed letter
to Senator Cullom in which he says:
Il notice in connection with the
general arbitration treaties now before
the Senate that suggestions have been
made TO the effect that under them it
might be possible to consider as mat
ters for arbitration claims against GER
tain States of the Union in reference
to certain debts. / write TO say, what
of course you personally know, that
under no conceivable circumstances
could any such construction of the
treaty be for q moment entertained by
any President. The holders Of State

of the constitutional limitations upon
their recovery through any action of

To Reinforce the Squadron.
CBy the Associated Press.D

ST. Petersburg. Jan. 11.-The Adj
miralty has not given the slightest
official confirmation of the report OF
the recall of Vice Admiral Rojestven-
sky's squadron. On the contrary the
officials point calmly to the prepara-
tons being. made to reinforce the
squadron with IL division of the Third
Pacific Squadron as sufficient evidence
that Rojestvenskv will not return to
European waters. The Russian ice
breaker Ermack at Libau has been
ordered to keep the channel clear fer
the ships which are being made ready
for sea.
Under the French regulations 1T IS
maintained that Rojestvensky's ships
could cruise in the Indian Ocean coal

rely solely on State credit. such Il
claim against u State could under no
considerations he submitted by the
general government rs a matter OF ar
bitration; and more than such claim
against n county municipality could be
thus submitted for arbitration.
No one would even think of such Il
matter as being one for arbitration or
for any diplomatic negotiation what
ever. Moreover, these treaties run
only for q term of five years; until the
end of that period they viii certainly
be interpreted in accordance with the
view above expressed.

MRS. PLUMBER ACQUITTED.
Jake Bradford TO be Hanged for tho
Murder of Her Husband.
(By the Associated Press. }

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 11.-Jake
Bradford, colored. was tried yesterday
and Mrs. Nellie Plummer, white, to-
day, charged with the murder of John
Plummer, Mrs Plummer'S husband
last November. Bradford was CON
Ficted of murder in the first degree
and Mrs. Plummer was acquitted.
Bradford when accused of the muir
der confessed and implicated Mrs
Plummer. He afterwards retracted
his confession, saying he made it
under fear of lynching. He made two
confessions that did net agree. First
he said that Mrs. Plummer fired the
gun which he had handed to her and
afterward he stated that he fired the
fatal shot while she held a light.

In defense of the MormonS Mr.. Nc
Connen said he considered the man
who took a plural wife and cared for
her and her children far better than
one who sustained illicit relations with
a woman and abandoned her and her
child to the scorn of the world.
Witness admitted he had appointed
William Badge. a pOlygamist, as reg
ent of the State University.
Inquiry by Chairman Burrows
brought out the statement from the
witness that when Idaho was admit
ted as q state it was ''tacitly. under
stood that polygamists would be per
mitted to live with their several wives
and increase their families.
Mr. French said that in canvasses
of his state he had not taken account
of the ormon Church as a whole but
of course, had talked politics to Nor
mons as individuals
Mr. French was asked what would
be the effect of his political fortunes
if he should be the instrument in the
prosecution of polygamiStS.
'It is my judgment that the Nor
mons would resent it, said Mr..
French. He added that he believed
that even the younger Mormons would
feel that the understanding of 1890
had been violated.
Then it is rather necessary in poll
ties to keep clear of Mormon prose-
cutions" observed the chairman.
The committee adjourned until to-
morrow

KING AND LEE MATCHED

Buddy King, Of Denver, and Kid
Lee of Havre, the lightweight cham
pion of Montana, have signed articles
of agreement for a twenty round glove
contest at the Montana Concert Hall
on Nov. Both. Buddy King is the boy
who lost the decision in an eight
round bout to Champion Joe Cans at
Butte several months ago. Lee has
been trying to make a match with
AdOlph Him., the Culbertson lad, but
the gruelling he gave Him. in ten
round fight at Boulder a short time
ago, seems to have made the gilbert
son lad nervous to the extent that he
has taken on Kid F'redericks instead
of Lee and will pull off the fight at
CulbertSOn on the 28th.

down the curtain and the harmony of
twenty male voices struck a respon-

THE FACTS.

In the last issue of the Plaindealer
the editor makes very lengthy reply
to the article which I gave to the
HERALD for publication under date
of Nov. 10; throughout his exhaustive
reply he only attempts to make one
single statement where he furnishes
figures in a vain attempt to prove his
far-fetched and misleading statement,
and this is relative to policy holders
who continue their policies in Old
Line Assurance Companies until they
pass the expectation of life; that both
sides of the controversy, in which the
editor of the Plaindealer has so freely
entered, may be shown, and for the
benefit Of those who may not have
read the article in the last issue of the
Plaindealer, l quote below the state
ment before referred to.
''The only possible chance that an
insured individual takes is that of bad
management, except the chance that
his life may be longer than the aver
age life, and that his payments with
compound interest will as a result be
greater than his beneiciaries receive"
That the mathematical construction
OF the old line system of life assurance
may have its just representation, |
here quote the actual results on an
ordinary life policy, where the policy
holder had passed the expectation of
life by about years in the year 1901,
and after having carried his policy for
a period of 43 years.
Date of issue of policy, Nov. Is, 1858
Amount of policy. 81 900 90
Age at issue, 20 years. ..
Annual premium ............ % IS
Since 1864 dividends have all been
used to purchase additions with the
following result:
Addition to p Icy purch-
ased by dividends ..........$1, 312 SIS
Original policy ............... 1000 90
His insurance in (l9oD. ......s2,3l2 SIS
Total premiums paid in cash. $50 90
WELL, WHAT OF IT?
Simply this: Had the insured died
in the year 1901, the company would
have paid his estate in cash s13S. Is
for every $1OO which he had paid the
company, and paid the FULL FACE OF
HIS POLICY BESIDES: that the cash
dividends offered on his policy have
exceeded his premiums every yea
since 1890.
If the editor of the Plaindealer is
DESTROYS of obtaining the number of
the above policy, as well as the name
of the party who is carrying it, I will
be only too pleased to furnish him the
desired information, with the record
of this policy brought down to date,
as believe that the policy holder is
still living at the age of rs years.

WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease


The mention of sulphur win recall
TO many Of US the early days when
our mothers and grand mothers gave
as our daily dose of sulDhuS and mo-
lasses every spring and fall.
1t as the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure all,
ana mind you, this old fashioned
remedy 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
eitecIs of sulphur in a palatab1e
concentrated form, so that Il single
grain is far more effective than q
tablespoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years research and ex-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from Calcium Calcium Sui
phide) and sold i'm drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Calcium Waters.
They are small chocolate coated pei
lets and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in a highly con-
centrated,i effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur i'm restoring
and maintaining bodily yigor and
health, sulphur acts directly on the
liver, and eXcretory organs and puri-
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grandmotherS knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
laSseS every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary
flowers of sulphur were often worse
than the disease, and cannot COM
pare with the modern concentrated
preparations of sulphur, of which
Stuart's Calcium Waters is undoubt-
eddy the best and most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in a
way that often surprises patient and
physician alike.
DR.. r. NJ. Wilkins while expert
menting with sulphur remedies soon
found that the sulphur from Calcium
was superior TO any other form. He
says: For liver. Kidney and blood
troubles, especially when resulting
from constipation or malarit, l have
tanned from Stuart's Calcium Waters.
In patients suffering from boils and
pimpIes and even deep-seated car
buncles j have repeatedly seen them
dry UP and disappear in four or five
days leaving the skin clear and
smooth. Although Stuarts Calcium
Waters is a proprietary article and
sold by druggists and for that reason
tabooed by many physicians, yet i
know of nothing so safe and reliable
for constipation, liver and kidney
troubles and especially in all forms of
skin diseases as this remedy"
At any rate people who are tired
of pills, cathartics and so-called blood
purifiers" will find in Stuarts Cal
cium Waters. a far safer, more pala-
table and effective preparation.
