4UTOISTyS POLICY VOID?
Insurance Company Refuses to ray
-"Speed Mad the Ercuse.
NV Telegraph to The Tribune.l

Aby Ieesraph 10 Inc A
New Orleans. April 15.-An acclueht insurance
company has refused to pay large accloeht
policy here the death OF NJ L. hahcoch' VINO
was killed in automobile ACCIDENT IN Los
Angeles several months ago. on the ground that
the company cannot pay claim on an auto
rnob;list as most of them are monomaniacs on
speed and therefore the company is not re-
sponsible.
The company, in its answer to the suit. which
has been filed. asserts that the man VINO was
killed was practically insane on this question
and that IL should not be held liable for deaths
resulting from the actions OF a person tenn
porarily insane In the same answer the COM
pany asks that if It should be held liable it
should be only for half the amount. as it holds
that its liability is essened if the insured shall
engage in any hazardous employment, and this
il is asserted includes automobiling.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It 10 ir
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal Is the safest and most efficient dis
lnfectant and purifier in nature, but,
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal Is 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 carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking. drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels. #
dislnfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for the money is in
Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges; they are
composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal, and other harmless antisep-
tics in tablet form or rather in the
form OF large. pleasant tasting lozen-
ges. 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 it is, that no DOS
sible 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: "I ad-
wise 'Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
ION and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; I also believe the liver is great
~ benefited by the daily use of them:
they cost but twenty-five cents a box
at drug stores, and although in some
sense patent preparation, yet | be-
neve l get more and better charcoal
IN Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in
any OF the ordinary charcoal tabls&a."

New York, March 16.-BradStreetS
State of Trade tomorrow will say:
The widespread winter storm has de-
layed the opening of spring trade at
retail, causing some complaints of bad
reads and interruption to personal
buying at leading jobbing centers. On
the other hand, the benefits of accom-
panying heavy SHOWS or rains to the
crops probably far outweight the
damage due to this cause, or injury
caused to small fruits and truck in
terests by the freezing weather.
Cotton of the leading speculativcly
dealt ir staples. has shown rather pro-
nounccd weakness, due to bull liqui-
dation, weak cables and bear manip-
uiations. Foreign woods have advanc-
ed on the news from London. Wool
en- dress goods have sold well. and
mems wear worsted fabrics are also
moving freely, but woolens for mems
wear are still Disseminated against.
| Following the late weakness in the
grain markets the tone this week has
been rather more assured, though the
rally from the lowest prices has been
heSitating and not entirely maintain
| cd.
The feature in the leather market this
| week has been the very large sales OF
sole leather in Boston. Hemlock has led
but Union and oak sole have also sold
more freely. Considerable side leather
has also been sold for export. Orders 70:

A BLOCK IN THE WAY.

But there is some doubt as to wheth-
er Dwight will run for the Senate, and
faction will have to support him in
the convention and at the polls for Su-
pervisor. Dwight has the consent of
his firm to run for Supervisor, but it
is doubtful if he could get it for the
Senate, as that place would require
his time during the day, while the
Board of Supervisors meets only al
night. From some of the members of
the Sunday school class it is learned
that Lane is sanguine of nominating
Nagaran for a place on the board.
This is no doubt with the hope that
Dwight will withdraw
