SENATOR HARRIS AND THE OLD
SOLDIER.
Sincerely yours,
J. H. STEWART.


As everyone knows, Senator Harris
was a colonel in the confederate serv-
ice A few veterans remembering
this, are prejudiced against him. But
he has been the union soldiers and
sailors friend Read the following:
Old Soldiers and Civil Service.
"a bill introduced by Senator PIatt
OF New York, giving soldiers prefer
ence when on the eligible list OF the
civil service commission, but depriv-
Ing them Of their pensions in all cases
where their salaries exceeded $1,000
per annum was referred by the COM
mittee to Senator Harris as a sub-com-
mittee to examine and report. He at
once struck out the clause depriving
the one-aTmed or One-legged or other
wise wounded soldiers from the gross
and cruel provision and was authori-
zed to report the bill to the senate,
giving soldiers preference who had
passed the civil service examination
and who were on the eligible list Of
the commission. He later on called
the bill up and secured its passage
through the senate. For this he re-
ceived the written thanks Of wounded
old soldiers who were serving in the
departments and also the Grand Army
OF New York headed by General JOS
eph ". Kay, formerly cOmmander-in-
chief OF the Grand Army Of the Re
public. He secured a favorable re-
port thereon in the Fffty-sixth con-
gress but on motion Of Senator Long,
the bill was recOmmitted to the COM
Ii -
was made an hOnOry member OF the
War Veterans and Sons association.
Retired List for Sailors.
He also introduced a bill provid-
ing for q retired list for sailors after
thirty years service, thus placing
them on the same footing as enlisted
men IN the army and marine corps,
for which he obtained favorable re-
port from the committee on naval af-
fairs, and later on its passage through
the senate.
For this he was made an honorary
member OF the Regular Army and Ma
val union and was presented with a
handsome medal and button.
Private Pension Bills and Claims.
He also succeeded in passing
senate q number OF private claims and
e large number OF private pension
bills In fact almost every private
pension bill introduced by Senator
Harris passed through the senate, and
q large majority OF them passed both
houses and were signed BY the presi-
dent
Pensions.
In addition to these pension bills.
Senator Harris has the claims Of near
- Zoo old soldiers on his books, sew
eral hundred OF which he has already
succeeded IN having allowed at the
pension department Senator Harris
Ees great pride in this part OF his
work. and says that he considers it
res only a duty to assist old soldiers,
1ut g pleasure as well
nllng Privileges 20 Soldiers and
Sailors.

letters, not exceedinE tive ounces TO
soldiers ard sailors IN active service
This bill was reported favOrably BY
the committee on post Offices and post
roads, and he called il up twice, en-
deavoring to secure its passage, but
it was objected to BY Senator Plat OF
Connecticut, and consequently had to
90 over, and could not be reached in
regular order prior to adjournment"

THE HAIR BRUSH
Breeds Dandruff, Which Causes FalInq
Hair and Finally Badness.

Professor Unna, Hamburg Germany
European authority on skin diseases
says that dandruff is as contagious as
any other malevolent disease, and that
one common source of the spread OF
dandruff is the use of the same hair
brush by different persons. The way to
avoid catching dandruff or any other
disease from another's brush is to in
Sist on the use of Newbro's Herpicide.
1t not only kills the dandrur germ, but
it is also an antiseptic that will pre-
vent the catching of any disease what
ever through contagion of another's
brush. Sold by leading druggists.

An Awful Cough Cured.

1.-TWO years ago our little girl had a
touch of pneumonia, which left heI
with an awful cough. She had spells
of coughing, just like one with the

she would not get well at all. We got
a bottle of Chamberlain Cough Rem

stopped coughing and got stout and

EVIDENCE STANDS
Judge Gest OverruIes Motion to
Strike Out Testimony Of
Two Witnesses
IN, THE MACKIN WILL CASE
Mrs. Sarah Beam Not Disqualified by
Death of Her Mother After She
Had Been on the Stand.

Several important rulings were made
yesterday by Judge Gest in the Maclin
will case in the circuit court, as to the
admission of evidence for the contest
ants. After the death of Mrs. Cath
crime McArdle, a sister of Father
Mackin, her daughter, Mrs. Sarah
Beam. became one of the contestants,
and motion was made by the attorneys
for the proponents TO strike out Mrs.
Beams testimony in the case, given
two days before Mrs. McArdle's death.
The court yesterday overruled the mo-
ton and allowed the testimony &c
stand. The argument of the propC'
nents' attorney was that Mrs. Beam
after her mothers death was disquali.
fed. she becoming one of the defend.
ants. The court held that as Mrs.
Beam was qualified as a witness at
the time she testified, subsequent
events did not affect her testimony.
Mrs. Beams testimony was of great
Importance TO the contestants. The
court also overruled the motion to
strike out the testimony of Sister Mary
Catherine of the Sisters of the Vista
ton. The point was made that Sister
Mary Catherine was a member of the
order, and therefore d beneficiary I'M
der the will and disqualified as wit
ness. The court took the position that
she was not personally beneficiary,
and allowed the evidence to stand.
Letters written by Father Mackin to
the Nerbridge nieces were ruled out
because they were written over 20
years ago and were too remote and i'm
material to be used as evidence.
Testimony Gu Relationship.
Joe McMahOn of this city. son of
Father Mackin's niece, was ON the
stand yesterday afternoon and testified
that seven years ago he saw in Rock
Island a girl who went by the name Of
Mary Eleanor Macllin. and that Mrs
Grace Mackin introduced her TO him
as his cousin. He went to New York
last Thanksgiving and saw the same
lady known here as Mary Eleanor
now married and known as
Mary Eleanor Tyson. She gave him
some letters, written by Father Mack
in and addressing her as niece They

Remarkably Long Question.

One of the incidents of this morn.
ings session in the case was the ask.
ing of hypothetical question by the
attorneys for the contestants, while DR..
w H. Ludewig was on the stand as an
expert witness The attorney asked
the physician-if. were the facts shown
by the contestants true was Father
Macllin, in his opinion, of sound mind
and capable of making a will Dec. %
1904. The facts shown by the contest
ants were enumerated III the question
and over eight pages were required to
record the question. An objection was
made by the attorneys for the propon-
ents, on the grounds that the question
is unfair because it gives only the
synopsis of the evidence of one side.
and makes no statement as to the testi-
money brought out by the proponents.
The objection to the question was left
open for argument this afternoon DR..
Ludewig gave some evidence as to
anaemia, the disease with which Faith
err Mackin was afflicted. and stated
that it weakened the mind of the pa.

Not Likely to Meet With
Their Support
THEY HAVE ANOTHER SCHEME
Would Give Jones County to the Sec

a Surprise.
Special to rlmes-R Republican.

Special to es-Republican
duced by Representative Cummings of
Marshall county, providing q plan for
redistricting the Second and Fifth
congressional districts of the state,
has raised storm of protest among
republican party leaders who are
friends of Dawson in this section of
the Second district. Dawson's friends
do not desire to see him placed in same
district with Cousins as Cummings
bin provides. Then again it is pointed
out that such change would leave
Wade in the Fifth district, and that he
might forego his decision not to run
for congress again and get out and
make things warm next fall.
The plan desired here If any change
in the Second district is to be made,
trict. johnson county to the Fifth dis
trict, and Iowa county to the Sixth
district That would leave Cousins
Still republican leader in the Fifth and
it is believed would not disturb the
republican pluralities OF the Sixth. 1t
has been believed here that Wade's
published decision not to be candi-
date for the office again, would put an
end to all Of the redistricting plans
and unless the Cummings bill Is
changed, it will have opposition In
this part of the Second district.
