not like the Etons. I am about feet
8 inches in height, 26 inches waist, 40

eyes, gray and black hair. I would

seem suitable for short persons. s@-

You would find the princesse gowns
becoming, but as you are DESTROYS Of
having skirt and coat suit and do not
care for the Etons, some other style
must be selected, as only the very

Kid Words for the James
town Exposition.

The State Of Massachusetts, has
appropriated $4,000 in order that
it might be creditably represented al
the jamestown Exposition at Hamp.
ton Roads in 1907.
The faint suggestion of former
misunderstanding between the sec.
tons melted away when a deputa.
tion of colored men from Norfolk,
Va, some of them clergymen, ex-
planned to the legislators of Massa-
chusetts that they heartily approved
of the jamestown celebration and
wished its success.
In connection with this evidence
of the abolition of sectional misun-
derstandings, there is given herewith
some excerps from a letter received
by Mr.. C. H. Pratt, the Superin-
tendent of the grounds of the James
town Exposition. The letter is dated
Boston, and among other things the
writer says;
Il retain very pleasant recollec-
tons of the hospitality received in
Virginia. The dominant idea in my
mind is that the jamestown EXPOSE
ton will be the most interesting

point of view ever held and will Of

north and south to meet on common
ground and celebrate an event or
series of events of vital interest to

Bad as the earthquake was, the
whole country ought to understand
clearly that San Francisco's chief
disaster was due to the fire Thou
sands, if not millions, Of people have
been asked whether or not it was
going to be at all safe to rebuild
San Francisco, in view of its liability
to what scientific men call seismic
disturbance" This is really some
thing like asking whether or not it is
worth while to build cities and towns
in Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, and adj
jacent states, because destructive
tornadoes from time to time visit
that general region and do local viO-
lence. AS these pages were closing
for the press, immense forest fires
were raging in northern Michigan
and in sections Of Wisconsin. Anum-
Der of villages and towns were said
to have been burned, and the very
considerable city of Escanaba was
reported in imminent danger. Flood,
drought, fire, earthquake, volcano,
epidemic, tornado, blizzard, tidal
wave, cyclone, monsoon, hot wave
every section of the land, sooner or
later, suffers from some visitation
of nature that departs so far from
the normal as to cause great suffer
ing and loss. The powers of nature
are SO profound, and the possibility
of some exceptional scourge is a
thing so ever-present, that it is a
very hazardous affair to be alive at
all on any square mile of this lovely
but harrassed planet of ours. The
prophet who claims to have predict
ed the San Francisco disaster has
now affixed the date for the dread
full calamity that is to overwheIm
New York. The fact is that Califor-
MIA is probably as safe state to live
in as any other. It's equitable eli
mate and general salubrity gives it
advantages which most states do not
possess under the law Of averages.
Of San Francisco's financial losses,
it may be roughly guessed that less
than 5 per cent, are due to the earth
quake and more than 95 per cent. to
the fire. From ''The Progress of |

How to Break 10 a Cold.

1t may be a surprise to many to
learn that a severe cold can be com
pletely broken up in one or two days
time. To do this, however, prompt
action is necessary. The first symp-
toms of cold are a dry, loud cough,
a profuse wat9ry discharge from the
nose, and a thin, white coating on
the tongue When Chamberlain s
cough remedy is taken every hour
on the first appearance of the symp-
toms, it counteracts the effect of the
cold and restores the system to a
healthy condition within a day or
two. For sale by L. L. Egln and

Fair Debt Compromised.

A compromise has been agreed up
on in the suit Of the Kentucky Live
Stock Breeders association against
the greensboro guarantors by which
they are. to pay $40, 900 and the plain
t ifs and defendants are to pay their
own cost. The cost of the guaran-
tors is $40 and the total liability is
therefore $40, Oz9. This amount must
be paid by the first day of the June
term of court which will be held on
June 4. The prorata amount for each
guarantor is GA per cent. of the sub
scription, this percentage including
the cost. This will pay the indebted
IS in full. The amount is asked
for at once 50 that the settlement
may be made and suit dismissed,
Notices TO this effect are being sent
out to all the guarantors -byLaVega
Clements, one Of the attorneys. The
compromise was effected by the at
torneys on both sides and it give:
satisfaction to all. 1t is probable
that the whole matter win be settled
up promptly but if a few should re
fuse to comply with the condition,
of the compromise the settlement
would be deferred and the suit con
tinued. -Owensboro Inquirer.

ganization and begin active work for the forthcoming elections for directors of both companies.
 Mir. Samuel Untermyer, the gen cIal counsel for this Committee, has been working for weeks to secure har- nony of action on the part of State and Foreign policy-hOlders associations in the conduct of this international campaign and the result of his labor is seen in the distinguished array of men chosen by the policy-holders to represent them on this nominating committee and in the unity of feeling among policy-holders everywhere that this effort of theirs has at last taken on such formidable shape as to com mand universal public confidence.
 In connection with the announce ment of the personnel of the Commit tee, Mir. Untermyer said:
 This is the completion by the policy-holders themselves of the move ment for reform which started with the investigation by the Armstrong Committee and was continued by the Legislature of the State of New York when there was passed an insurance bill restoring to policy-holders m mu- tual companies a voice through the ballot box in the control of their own savings.
 ''It is surprising now little the poll icy holders know about what is hap peLing to their interests The old managements are eXhausung every eg- fort to intrench themselves in office They H.a cy organizations of these two calupa- nies to use their agents 10 perpetuate the existing regimes, and pohcyhold- CTS are cautioned against permitting the agency force of the companies to be used in canvassing for votes for the present discredited management. The agents are in the policyholders pay, and should not be working against their interest.
 The policyholders should under stand that elections will at last have the opportunity of electing boards of directors of their own choosing. The policy y-holderS will have an opportuni- ty to vote directly by mail by marking ballots as in ordinary elections. They are cautioned against giving proxies whether solicited by the agents of the companies or by individual poncy- holders.
 It must be apparent to everyone that until d complete change has been made in the management of each of these companies it can not expect to have the confidence of the public or the policyholders. It must be equal ly apparent that the wrongs and abuses perpetuated upon the policy holders can not be discovered nor res IijUtiOn obtained until a new manage, Int Tt unConnected with these abuses is put in control, and this is their op p"rjunity to now and forever separate these great sacred trust funds from the domination cS Wall street.

NOW BELIEVED TO BE

Former Editor of Bisbee Even-
 ing Miner Believed to Have
 Himself EnmeShed in Folds . Of Federal Law.

D. W. Semple, late editor of the Bis bee Evening Miner, of this city. was indicted by the United States grand jury in session at Tombstone, on Wednesday of this week for the send ing through the United States mail an alleged indecent and lewd article print ed in the Bisbee Evening Miner some time during the month of December.
 It IS reported that the United States marshal at Manhattan, Nevada, where D. w. Semple is at present located was wired instructions from the Unit ed States marshal's office at Tomb stone on Tuesday, to place Semple un- der arrest
 Witnesses were subpoenaed from Bisbee, Douglas and Phoenix to give evidence in the case before the grand jury.
 The article, which it is claimed by the |. & post office officials was inde- cent and. lewd, w2s printed in the Miner in connection with the trial of q case before Justice Mcdonald of this city in which the vulga< and lewd ac- tiOns of 9 certain woman were testi- fled to by witnesses. The Miner printed a detailed account of the hear ing, and a few days later a copy of the paper fell into the hands of a post of fee inspector, and was submitted by him to the post office department at Washington, with the result that the matter was referred to U. s. District Attorney Alexander for action. Semple was probably placed under arrest yesterday, or will be today, and will be brought back to Tombstone to plead TO the indictment. Since leav- ing Bisbee in January last MT. and Mrs. D. w. Semple have been in the vicinity of Manhattan, Nevada, where they have been prospecting in the hills near there, expecting to again launch into the newspaper business during the fall months.
