NEW SMELLING BRIDGE
PRELIM|NAR!Es BEGUN
Major Derby to Take Steps To-
5s. ward Erection of the -.
49, New Structure.
Nv. w. w, Jermane.

Washington, March 24.-Preliminary
steps were taken today toward comply
ing with the permission granted by
congress for the erection Of new
bridge at Fort Smelling. Representa-
tive Stevens had long conference with
the secretary of war and other officials,
and it was arranged that Major Derby
should be directed Immediately to con-
fer with officers Of the street car COM
pany, the city Of St. Paul and Ramsey
county, with view to getting the
necessary concessions and arranging for
the payment Of sums agreed upon as
their share Of expense of erection.
The selection Of the site is the most
important point to be agreed upon, and
it Is probable that General Mackenzie,
chief of engineers, will make a trip to
Fort Smelling for the purpose of fixing
the location Of the bridge. Two sites
are under consideration, both above the
present structure, which will stand until
the new bridge is completed. The
preparation Of plans will be commenced
as soon as the preliminary work out
lined above is done.
At Mr.. Stevens request, the secretary
Of war directed the chief of engineers
and the quartermaster general to hasten
report on the bill introduced early in
the week for the appointment of com
mission to investigate the power posi-
bilities at the Meeker Island dams.
The treasury department will also sub
nit report shortly. :. .>~~.. e."

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

- Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not
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
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
emlnently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
Is in Stuart g Charcoal LoZenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
Willow charcoal. and other harmless an
tiseptics in tablet form, or rather In
the form of large, pleasant tasting loz-
enges. the charcoal being mixed with
honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in much improved condition
of the general health, better complex
| ion, sweeter breath and purer blood,
and the beauty of it is that no pos
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: - 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; also believe the liver Is great
! ly benefited by the daily use OF them;
at drugstores, and although in some
sense a patent preparation, yet I be-
lieve I get more and better charcoal In
| Stuart IS Charcoal Lozenges than In any
of the ordinary charcoal tablets. -

MINISTER ACCUSED
!. OF FIRING CHURCH
Feud of Factions in Indiana
House Of Worship Leads
to Arrest
Special Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
Danville, Ind, March 24.-Rev. Ed
ward Fl. Freeman, Methodist minister
of Terre Haute, was arrested in that
city today on an Indictment returned
against him by the Hendricks county
grand jury, sitting here, charging him
with arson. Freeman was formerly the
pastor Of Montgomery chapel, south Of
Lizton. He with others Of his parish
toner's was DESTROYS Of having the
church moved from the country site
into Lizton. The church was an old
frame affair, and had served many
years as place Of worship. Beside it
was little graveyard in which some of
the most prominent families Of Hen
bricks country have relatives and
friends buried. They voted down Free
mans proposition to move the church
into town. A church feud resulted and
much bitterness was arounsed.
On the night Of Feb. II, 1908, after a
revival service, the little chapel burned.
From that moment there were rumors
that the town church folk had
burned Montgomery chapel, and bitter
ness between the town and country ele-
ments grew into hatred. In the course
Of time, the antitown crowd presented
the gossip to the prosecutor of Hen
bricks county, and he began an inyesti-
cation. Nearly the whole town of Liz
ton was summoned. An insurance COM
pany Of Chicago, which had paid pol
Icy Of $500 on the burned church, also
took a part and pushed the inyestiga.
ton before the grand jury. The result
was the Indictment Of the minister on
the charge Of arson.

DIVORCED, She WEEDS
sTEPS0N SWEETHEART
Chicago Woman Elopes With the
Son Of Her Former
Husband.

Special to The Journal.
Chicago, March 24.-Divorced and
married again without changing her
name or her family-who else could do
it but Mrs. Bertha Twitchell of Chi
cago, sweetheart of her own stepson?
This amazing exponent Of economy in
romance eloped with her darling
Eddie" to Hammond, Ind, today, alb
Dictated from her proud possession Of
stepmotherhood, dotted her gross wild
owls weeds and became blushing
bride at once. +
The young woman was sued for d.
1vorce by her former husband, Weston
H. Twitchell, a middle-aged Chicago
manufacturer, two weeks ago, the
charge being that she had transferred
her affections to Twitchell's son by a
former marriage. When she was
brought before Judge McEwen, who
wished to sift the bizarre incident to
the bottom, she frankly confessed that
her heart was given wholly to the
younger Twitchell, and that she could
no longer live with, the father.
Last Tuesday the decree was granted
by the Chicago courts, Judge McEwen
forbidding the defendant to remarry
until two years had elapsed. The
father was tolerant of the love affair
between his son and his former wife,
and offered no objections to the ar
rangement. -. ~:.. -..
The couple finally decided to marry
in spite of the order of the court, and
entered Indiana for this purpose. They
made desperate attempts to keep their
marriage secret. This was Mrs.
Twitchell's third matrimonial adven-
ture, as she had been divorced before
marrying the elder Twitchell. She is
rs years old. -

SLAYER Of CHICAGO
WOMAN TO Be HANGED
Ivens, Murderer Of Mrs. Hollister,
Convicted Two Months
After Crime.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal
Chicago, March 24.-Richard Ivens
was found guilty of the murder Of Mrs.
Franklin G. HOLSTER by the jury in
Judge Smith IS courtroom To-Day. The
penalty was fixed at death. =
The twelve men who heard the evil
dence in the terrible crime were quar-
tered only an hour to agree on the guilt
Ivens seemed stupe6ed by the YER
dict. An attempt at an demonstration
in the courtroom was suppressed quick
ly and the murderer was taken back to
Jail.
After the jurors left the courtroom
one of them stated that the plea Of tho
defense, that Ivens dreamed his story
and had been forced to confess by the
police, was too flimsy to be taken seri-
ously.
Climax to Murder Series.
The killing of Mrs. HOLSTER On Jan.
IL came as a climax to a series Of
murders from which Chicago women
had been the victims The young WON
an was member of the Wesley Meth
odist church, and was the leader of the
chlldren's choir. She was a talented
singer and a member of the Apollo.
With her husband, member of the
publishing firm of HOLSTER Brothers,
the woman had led a quiet life at her
residence, in the shadow of the Nc
Cormick Theological seminary.
On the morning of Jan. II Mrs. Hol-
lister left her home to attend the
funeral Of a friend. She did not ar
rive, and her friends became anxious.
A search was made, and the following
morning her body was found in the
rear Of 1858 Belden avenue.
The woman had been strangled with
copper wire. Evidently she had
struggled with her assailant. The body
was discovered' by Ivens, and he
was taken to the police station. There
he confessed the crime in the presence
Of Assistant Chief of Police Schuettler
and Inspector LAWN. = ..-
Mystery Still Unsolved.
Inquiry was made into Mrs. Hollis
ter's movements On the day of the
funeral, but the reason. for her not at
tending the service remains a bafflinp
mystery. She was seen twice during
the afternoon, and had made several
small purchases. t... ! "
Since the beginning Of the trial
lvens' attorneys have been determining
to repudiate the confession on the
grounds that it was secured by the
hypnotic suggestion of Assistant Chief
Schuettler. :
There is still a belief that Mrs. Hol.
lister was tortured for three hours BY
! a gang of five young ruffians, Of whom
lvens was one, and that he pursued her
and slew her after it had been decided
to let her live. He confessed to treat
ing other women in a similar manner
but none of the others died under his
hands. He is stolid, and a confirmed
cigaret fend.

Bills in Congress Disclose Course
to Be Taken by
Railroad.
Rv w. w. Jermane.

Washington, March 24.-An evidence
of the probable route of the Milwaukee
road IS extension from Evarts, s. D., to
Puget Sound was afforded in bills which
passed the senate yesterday toward the
close of the session, authorizing the
company to build bridges across various
rivers. They were reported one at a
time by Senator Frye, chairman of the
committee on commerce, and as the
title of each one was read, Senator
Kittredge asked unanimous consent for
immediate consideration, which was
granted. These bill were introduced
simultaneously in the senate early in the
week by Senators Kittredge, Carter
and Ankeny, and in the house by mem
bers of the delegations in states thru
which the road is to pass. iii,
These bill indicate that the road,
starting from the present terminus at
Evarts, s. D., is to cross the Missouri
river at that point, proceeding in gen
orally northwestern direction to Miles
City, Mont, where it will cross the
Yellowstone river, and passing thru
Fort Keogh military reservation, con-
tinue in the same direction, crossing
the Snake river at Lewiston, Idaho, and
the Columbia river at one or more
points in Washington. =.
The bills passed yesterday authorize
the company to build bridge across
the Columbia river in the southern part
Of Washington, and also in the central
part. :.~ .E
No trouble is expected in securing the
passage of these bills thru the house
as they are in the usual form, requir.
ing that the construction be begun
within one year and the bridges com,
pleted within three years after passage
