CARD FROM TALLNIAN & co.
Their Liberal Offer to Treat wors

Their Liberal Offer to Treat Worst
Case of Catarrh i'm Pendlcton.
To the Editor:
We have such an unusual offer to
make to your readers one that will be
of the greatest value to them, that we
hope you will give this letter promi-
nent location.
For some time we have had an op-
portunity to watch the results follow
ing the use of Hyomel, a treatment
for catarrh that cures by breathing
medicated air, absolutely without
any stomach dosing. The results
have been so remarkable that we feel
justified in making a public offer to
treat the worst case Of catarrh in PEN
dleton with the understanding that IL
Hyomei does not cure, 1t will cost alb
solutely nothing.
People who have spent a great deal
of money with catarrh specialists.
deriving but little benefit, have seen
almost immediate good results from
the use of Hyomei. and continued
treatment with this remedy has re-
suited in a complete and lasting cure.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
only 81, and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
medicine dropper and a bottle of
Hyomei. Should this not be enough
for cure, extra bottles of Hyomei
can be obtained for SO cents. Com
pare this small expense with the fees
charged by specialists, and remember
we guarantee the treatment will cost
nothing unless 1t cures.
We hope this offer will be accepted
by many of your readers.
Very truly yours,
TALLMAN & CO.

SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING.
VIII Take Up the Street Paving Prop
Osition

At 1880 this evening the city coun-
ell will meet in adjourned session for
the purpose of again taking up the
street paving proposition. During the
day the various members have been
discussing the subject among them
selves, but just what will be done
seems to be in doubt.
This morning Mayor Fee declared
that as far as he is concerned no un-
derstanding had been reached upon
the subject.
During the day engineers for the
Barber Asphalt company have been
doing some street surveying, presum-
ably for use should they be permit
ted to bid on the work.

1t will never be known in this world
just how much she has done for the
race, and for the feminine half of it
especially; but enough is known to
give her first place in the great move

the rights of woman, and brought wo-
man up to a clearer knowledge of her
influence, power and responsibility

he looked through the transom and saw
the girl dead on the bed. He at once
notified the police who came to inves-
tigate. He identified the note paper
and envelope received by Miss Biron
as those given to Todd. They were
put in as exhibits.
Tuesday afternoon he saw Todd
leaving the hotel, and at that time he
did not appear to be at all disturbed.
Todd had been a guest at the hotel at
different times for over year. Todd's
signature was familiar and he thought
the writing on the envelope resemh-
led his. He had never seen the girl,
George Biron, alive. He had not
seen Todd since o'clock on Tuesday,

In reply to questions by the coroner
he stated that Il short time ago Miss
Biron had received draft for 500
from somewhere in the west He
cashed 1t for her and he believed that
she had deposited it in the postoffice
or savings bank. He did not know
whether she had much money with
her when she left the house. She had
money In the bank and he had an idea
that she had drawn 500 some time in
June.
Evidence Of II Companion.
Susan Duncan, an employee of Mr..
Watt. told Of receiving letter ad-
dressed to Miss Miriam" She gave It
to Miss Biron on the supposition that
mistake had been made in the name.
Miss Biron read the letter and the fol-
lowing morning, Tuesday, she left.
That night she enquired for Miss Biron
at the Imperial hotel but was told
there was no such person of that name
there. She had known the deceased
for over year and had always con-
sidered her a good girl. spending her
evenings at home. Miss Biron had
never been i'll. and had never told of
any trouble. They were close friends
and slept together.
Gordon Hunter, who lives at the I'M
perial hotel, said that he had carried
letter from the hotel to 312 Banna-
tyne avenue. The clerk had asked
him to do so, saying to give it to no
person by Miss Miriam. Miss Biron
came to the door, read the letter and
after asking if the words 20 D. M"
meant evening said: Tell the gentle
man will be there" The man who
had given him the letter was tall,
smooth shaven, had numerous wrink-
les in his face, and wore dark suit.
He did not know the man but had seen
him sign the register. He also saw
him about the hotel on different occas-
ions. the last time being Tuesday
morning about 1880 o'clock when he
delivered the message.
The Tell-Tale Letter.
Alfred Pope. the clerk at the Imper-
ial, said that on Monday Todd came to
him at the desk and asked for note
paper. He gave Todd piece of plain
paper and some of the hotel envelopes.
Todd asked for a messenger and he
suggested Gordon Hunter The boy
delivered the message, and brought the
answer, which was told to Todd the
following morning. On Monday after
noon Todd was called to the telephone
and made an appointment to meet
someone at the lpostoffice at 2:1O. Todd
then told the clerk that If anyone asked
for d. Israel the message was his, and
to keep track of it. He told OF Watt
having called. Afterward he went to

the hall with dark blue suit on. He
took the brandy from the bell-boy and
went to the bath room with small
pitcher and came back with it empty.
About that time she had noticed a
strong odor of some medicine presum-
ably carbolic acid.
Heard GrOans.
William Tobias, working as bell-boy
at the Imperial, said that there had
been no call from room 80, but be-
tween 10 and II o'clock Tuesday morn
ing he had been called there and asked
to get glass of brandy in hurry. He
had taken it up. When he went up
first there was some groaning but on
the second occasion all was quiet He
could not tell who had been groaning.
He did not know Todd personally, but
the man who answered the bell had his
coat off and sleeves rolled up. There
were no blood marks or anything to
show that struggle had taken place.
Sergeant Newton told of having been
called to the Imperial hotel last Thurs
day morning. There he found girl
dead in room 80. She was fully at

Winnipeg. Man., July 16.-The coro-
ner's jury Investigating the death of
George Biron. who was found in the
Imperial hotel Wednesday morning,
was unable to arrive at verdict last
night, the report of the post-morteln
examination not being ready for court.
However, there was much interesting
evidence produced. all OF which went
to prove that H. w. Todd was present
when death took place. even ii he was
not directly responsible therefore. The
case Is one OF the most mysterious
that the Winnipeg authorities have
mad to handle in recent years but the
Wst-nortem examination will probab-
ly throw considerable light on the
subject.
+ While the report from the post-mor-
tenn examination has not yet been
made public, it Is said to be definitely
known by officials that carbolic acid
was administered or taken by the de-
ceased. Traces of it were found in
glass in the room, and there were
burns on the inside of the mouth and
fumes from the stomach. But mo-
tive 1t is reported was also found in
the fact that the unfortunate girl was
enciente at the time of her death. the
elapsed period being about three
months. This with the fact that she
had recently withdrawn 800 from
her bank account would indicate an
attempt at a criminal operation.
The following are the names of the
jurors: William Bergstrom, Hum
phry Drape, Thomas Marshall, w.

Bailey, foreman. G.. H. Boiwe, Alex.
Gordon, A. E. Emby, w. ]. Morrison,
Robert Johnson and H. w. Knight.
Robert Watt. who is proprietor of a
boarding house on Bannatyne avenue
said that George Biron came to work
for him on June 3, 1906. He saw her
last about 6 o'clock in the morning of
July 10. He thought that she left
the house about 10 o'clock that morn
ing. When she did not return at
noon or in the evening he went out to
try and find her. Because of a letter
which she had received from the I'M
perial hotel he went there first but
morning he telephoned to the hotel
he went down to the hotel about II
o'clock, when the proprietor told him
that there was girl upstairs, but did
not know whether she was dead or
not. The police arrived shortly after
but as there was no key available a
boy was lifted through the transom,
unscrewed the lock of the door and the
party entered the room. They found
