FIGHT FAIR" LITTLETON.
Counsel for Schmittberger Com
pIainS of Method of Trial.

The trial of Max F. Schmittberger, police in
spector, was resumed yesterday before Police
Commissioner Bingham. AS heretofore. the
prosecution was in the hands Of Mr.. Mathot,
Third Deputy Police Commissioner. while the
defence was in charge Of Martin w. Littleton
and George A. Voss Mr.. Butts. Assistant Cor
poration Counsel. sat at the Commissioners side
to decide knotty questions of law.
In opening the proceedings. Mr.. MathOt read
into the record the rules of the department rela-
tive 10 the duties of a police inspector. Mr.. Lit
Teton asked 10 have the rules read expunged
from the record. He said the rules as laid down
for a patroIman could not be applied 70 an in
spectOr, and added:
LET US fight fair IN this case. Let US not
search in book OF rules for an offence. but let
US meet the charges that have been made. L
object 70 this procedure"
After Commissioner Bingham had ruled 20 adj
nit the rules Of the department, Mr. Mathot
closed his case and Mr. LittletOn moved for
dismissal In arguing that the evidence was IN
sufficient he said:
.'The first knowledge you had that there was
a poorOOm I'm West 41st street, for the failure
20 close which Inspector Schmittoerger Is &C
cused was furnished by a raid made by Inspec-
tor Schmittbe himself. Why is IL we find
a malignant enemy OF Schmitt berger's in this
trial? Why is il that the charge was jumped
over the captain and put up TO the Inspector
Mr. Mathot, in reply, said that an Inspector
was responsible for the condition OF his district.
as he was higher in command than the CAP
tain and the latter had 70 obey his orders. H.
said that II such were not the case an inspector
would be nothing more less than a gold
braided messenger boy, running between the
caDtain and the Commissioner. Either" he
added "Schmittberger knew there was an al
legged poolroom and stood for It for four months
or else he lied 10 you when he said there was
poolroom there"
Commissioner Bingham reserved decision on
the question of dismissal OF the charges. and
asked counsel for both sides how long 10 would
require them to furnish him with briefs. Mr.:
Ifttleton said he could do II within a week. ana
Mr.. MathOt said he would also be ready IN that
time. Commissioner Bingham then adjourned
the trial until 2 d. m. next Wednesday. Along
side the Police Commissioner sat Mr. Woodbury.
the Street Cleaning Commissioner.

Habit-forming Medicines.

Whatever may be the fact as to many of the So-called patent medicines con taining injurious ingredients as broadly published in some journals of more or less influence, this publicity has certainly been of great benefit in arousing needed attention to this subject, It has, in considerable measure, resulted in the most intelligent people avoiding such pected of containing the injurious fngre- dients complained of. Recognizing this fact some time ago, Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., TtoOk time by the fOrelock," as it were, and published broadcast all the ingredients of which his popular medi- cines are composed. Thus he has com .pletely fOrestalled all harping critics and all opposition that might otherwise be urged against his medicines, because they are now or KNOWN COMPOSITION. Fur thermOre, from the formula printed on every bottle wrapper, it will be seen that these medicines contain no alcohol or other habit-fOrming drugs. Neither do they contain any narcotics or injurious vegetable, extracted from the roots of medicinal plants found growing in the depths of our American forests and of we'll recognized curative virtues.
 Instead of alcohol, which even in small portions long continued, as in obstinate cases of diseases, becomes highly objec- tionable from its tendency to produce a craving for stimulants, Dr. Pierce em- ployS chemically pure; triple renned glycerine, which of itself is valuable remedy In many cases of chronic diseases, being a superior demulcent antiSeptic, antiferment and supporting nutritiYe. It enhances the curative action of the Golden Seal root. Stone root, Black Cherrybark and BlOOdrOot, contained in "Golden Medical Discovery" in all bron- chial, throat and lung affections attended with severe coughs. As will be seen from the writings Of the eminent Drs. Grover COe, of New York; Bartholow, of Jeffer- son Medical College Pl1la; Scudder, of Cincinnati Ellingwood. of Chicago; Hale, of Chicago, and others, who stand as leaders in their several schools of practice, the foregoing agents are the UerV best ingredients that Dr. Pierce could have chosen to make up his fa- nous Discovery" for the cure of not only bronchial, throat and lung affec- tions, but also of chronic catarrh in all it's various forms wherever located.

HOT HANDS.

For perspiring hands the following lotion, apvlied several times during a day. will be found beneficial: Four drams each of borax and salicylic acid, two ounces each of glycerine and dill uted alcohol. with one dram of boraeic acid. Rinsing the hands in alum water will sometimes allay perspiration The hands will become wrinkled if the skin has tendency to excessive dryness for which condition, and to retain the suppleness of the fingers, the following massage cream will be found pleas ing remedy; Laoolin, 100 grains; liquid paraffin, 25 grains; 10 drops of extract of vanilla, with one drop of oil of roses. A delightful cosmetic jelly is made by soaking for three days 30 grains o1 gum tragacanth in seven ounces Of rosewater. Strain and add one ounce each of glycerine and alcohol. then half teaspoonful of borax, in the order given. A piece of pumice stone should be on every toilet table to re- move stains from the ltands-Spokes- man Review.

FIFTEEN YEARS
 OF LIFE SENTENCE
Movement Under Way for Release of
 Yuma Prisoner.

movement Is under way to secure pardon for an old man by the name of Barnes who is serving a life sen tence at Yuma. Barnes was a soldier of the civil war. He was sent to the penitentiary from Yavapai county fif- teen years ago having been convicted of the murder of a companion with whom he arrived in the country a short time before. He was convicted wholly on circumstantial evidence and he denied his guilt of the murder and still denies it. He said that he was not with his companion when he was killed; that they had separated in Prescott and the companion went on with a team and wagon. His dead body was found some weeks afterward not far from town. It has been point ed out that there could be no motive for the killing since the murdered man had no money. He had the horses and wagon but it could not be shown that Barnes had taken possession of them or disposed of them.
 It was naturally difficult if not inn possible for him to account for all of his time between the arrival of himself and his friend in Prescott and the time of the finding of the body of the latter weeks afterward
 Those who have seen the old man in prison say that if the face may be regarded as an indicator, Barnes never committed this murder or any other crime. His appearance instead of be- ing criminal is patriarchaI.
 The movement for his release was taken up by sister living in North Dakota and Grand Army camps in diff ferent parts of the country have be- come interested. The petition for his pardon is being signed by Grand Army men who say that though they know nothing about the case they believe that when an old man has Served ff- teen years in prison his i remaining years should be spet in freedom.
 Senator Beveridge is also said to be interested in the movement for the re- lease of the old man. It is not under stood whether he is anyway related to h'm or whether he is merely friend of the family.
