SORES:


Wheeling, w. Va, Mdy 2S, 1908.
Some years ago while at work, fell
over a truck and severely injured both
of my shins. My blood became poisoned
as a result, and the doctor told me
would have running sores for life, and
that If they were healed up the result
would be fatal. Under this discouraging
report l left off their treatment and re.
sorted to the use of S. S. S. It's effects
were prompt and gratifying. 1t took
only short while for the medicine to en-.
tirely cure up the Sores and | am not
dead as the doctors intimated, nor have
the sores ever broke out again. Some "a
years have elapsed since what have de-
scribed occurred. Having been so signally
benefited by its use can heartily recon-.
mend it as the one great blood purihes.

SWINDLE
SOUTHERNMEN

The gang of Spaish confidence men
who attempted to "work'' Mr.. Ed c.
Herren of this city few months ago,
evidently do not confne their opera
tions TO Oregon exclusively, for the st.
Louis Globe Democrat has an account
Of two prominent business men of that
city up which the same game was tried.
John Mooter, president of the John
Mooter Boiler works, and Il. +. South
er, president of the f. f. Souther Iron
company were the intended victims,
and they, like Mr.. Herren, decided that
American money and American girls
were good enough for them, The meth
ods used are almost identical with
those tried on Mr.. Herren. The same
characters appear--a relative dying in
Spanish prison, who is solicitous for
the welfare of his daughter, and a good
priest administering unto him in his
last moments the same paraphernalia
is used-a check for several thousand
pounds, payable to bearer and hidden
in the false bottom of trunk, which
is being held by the police to pay the
expenses of the prisoners trial. Only
the circumstances of the story differ.
The st. Louis gentlemen have placed
the matter in the hands of the United
States consul at Barcelona, requesting
that the Spanish authorities be urged
TO take steps toward apprehending the
supposed swindlers who seem to be
systematically trying to work upon the
sympathy and good nature of prominent
st. Louisians.

A FOOTBALL COW.

There are cows and cows but it will
be some time before one is heard from
that shows so much wit as fve-year-
old owned by V. A. Spearin of Monroe.
This bovine spends her spare moments
IN manufacturing spheres of compress
ed hay which bears the closest resemb
lance to footballs. Mr.. Spearin brought
one of these balls into the Bangor Com
mercial office Friday and wished the
inquiry to be made if anybody else
owns COW who carries on football
mandatory. The ball brought into
the Commercial office by Mr.. Spearin is
some ten inches by eight and is COM
posed of short bits OF hay pressed very
firmly together so that it is possible to
handle it without destroying the ball.
Mr.. Spearin states that the COW passes
the most OF her spare time in manufac-
turing these spheres with her nose.
She first breathes upon the bits of hay,
making it moist, and then keeps rolling
1t together until it becomes compact
She works away steadily until the mass
is smooth and round and then, satisfied
with the result attained, pushes the
ball to one side in her stall and COM
meDces another. MIR. Spearin was I'm
able to explain the Phenomenon unless
the explanation lay in the fact that the
COW originated from the University of
Maine herd and during her residence
there had become thoroughly impreg-
mated with the football spirit and is do
Ing her best toward supplying the
materials for the game. Another sug-
gestion is that the COW finds certain
portions of the hay which she does not
like as we'll as other morsels and takes
this method of expressing her dissatis
faction.

Dorothy vernon OF Haddon zar''
had rival last evening at the Belssco
theater IN the person Of a. A. Bobfiok
Of LIQUID air fame, and even the IaureIs
Of the ever popular Joseph esIbraith
were almost overshadowed by the man
with the tank Of coIdness
Mr.. Bohrick has invented an appar-
atus with which he hopes to overcome
one OF the most didicult problems the
amusement purveyors have 10 con-
front--that Of cooling and purifying
the air in playhouses during the heated
season.
The experiment was tried for the
first time last evening at the Belasco
and the experimenter was greeted with
prolonged applause when the first
dranght of cold air came from the
spray.
At the close Of the first act the In
ventor and two assistants carried the
apparatus on to the stage and after
explaining the object Of his invention.
Mr.. Bobrick proceeded to demonstrate
the force Of It.
Five gallons OF liquid air were used
the first time, representing 1000 gall
Ions Of pure oxygen. The liquid air

was distributed IN clouds, the spray
being turned first In one part OF the
house and then another.
The denonstrator promised that II
any drops fell they would not injure
the wearing apparel Of the women as
they would be only dry drops. During
the frst experiment the audience looked
on IN wonder and kept their seats.
During the second, which occurred
sfter the second curtain fell, men forgot
the warning and made wild dash
for their hats, while women seized pro-
grams and used them az screens.
The apparatus had been regulated
for use in the gallery, but the people
wanted II from the stage and those
in the front rows received more cool
ness than they bargained for.
The scheme is being promoted by
the United States Liquid Air and
Oxygen company and the managers
were more than pleased with the sue
cess Of the experiment, though they
declare the invention is not nearly
az complete as 1t will be in short
time.

the piece is rich and pretty and equal

The work of Prof. voelker last night

Other features of the Orpheum pro-
gram for this week are exceptionally
clever, but the charm of the bill rests
will the companies from last week.
Claude Gillingwater with his company
in THE Wrong Man" proved as much
of success last night as he did upon
his first performance, while George w.

the public utility ordinance, for which
the citizens Of Los Angeles have waited
so long. This ordinance became law
only after The Herald, aided by the
Municipal league and many other civic
and municipal organizations, had waged
an incessant campaign for nearly half
a year and now the soubrette of the
council apparently is seeking to pre-
vent the curbing of the gas trust and
the enforcement Of the law.
The supply committee of the council,
of which Houghton is chairman, met
and decided to buy the apparatus for
the meter Inspector, despite the objec-
tions of Houghton and his refusing to
put the motion, The city attorney ruled
that the majority of the committee was
the committee. After the meeting
Houghton took the acquisitions and the

saw them again.
Yesterday Councilman Healy of the
supply committee asked City Attorney
Mathews in open council, If Houghton
had the right to spirit away requisi-
tions after they had been signed. Mr..
Mathews said that no member had that
right, but that If 1t had been done all
the other members of the committee
had to do was to make out new ones.
A resolution was prepared by Coun-
Gilman Healy, on the advice Of the city
attorney, authorizing the purchase OF
the apparatus. "This will settle the
question:" said the city attorney.
The law requires six votes to adopt
such resolution and but six council
men were present. The .obstructionist"
smiled with joy when he found that for
one more day he could make 1t impos-
sible to enforce the law which insures
the rights Of the people over the. gas
trust.
The council will meet again at 10
O'Clock this morning to consider some
method by which the law may be en-
forced despite the "obstructionist," and
other questions.

for no one knew his lines, even the
faithful George Barnum confusing his
sentences. This is a feature that can
easily be eliminated by the second
evening, but It made the stilted Ian
guage of the play more awkward than
even the pIaywright's poor handling
had arranged It. N sra ~
The piece has an almost unforgiv-
able lack Of proper sequence, and the
stage business is not arranged up to
the usual George Barnum standard.
There is also a scene where change
OF dresses is made, and while in taste
It gives the audience opportunity to
laugh at the wrong place.
The wonderful scenery and the effec-
tive costumes give a background for
these excellent players to present
many beautiful tableaux. and there are
many scenes taken separately which
are splendid1y done and unusually ar
tistAc. The scene between Elizabeth
and Dorothy in the, last act is deli
