Few People Know How Useful 1t Is In
 Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient disinfect- ant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose.
 Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of 1t the better; 1t is not 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 onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; It 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 arc composed of the fineN powdered Willow charcoal, and other karmless antiseptics in tablet form O. rather in the form Of large, pleasant tastl9g lozenges, the charcoal being mxed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health. better complexion. sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of 1t is. that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but on the contrary. great benefit
 A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says: "I advise Stu arts Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels and to clear the complexion and purify the breath. mouth and throat; I also be- lieve the liver Is greatly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents box at drug stores. and although in some sense patent preparation yet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Loz- enges than in any of the ordinary char coal tablets"

ROONEY ALLOWED A
 LITTLE EXERCISE
GRANTED LIBERTY OF PRISON CORRIDORS TWO HOURS EACH DAY--oFFIcERs ARE GATHERING EVIDENCE THROUGH MAIL.

James Rooney, held in custody at the county jail .on suspicion of being the famous New York Harry" a member of the gang of safe blowers who robbed the safe in the office of the Standard Oil company, March 27, 1900 is no longer be- ing kept in such close confinement as was the rule when he was first brought here from Bridgeport, Conn
 They are allowing me the freedom of the corridors in the jail two hours each day" said Rooney yesterday, "and get a chance now to stretch myself every day l appreciate that favor very much It is pretty tough to be cooped up in a little seven by ten foot cell all day with out a chance to walk around.
 Rooneys attorneys said yesterday that they are bringing to the jail every day effort to have the man looked at by everybody who ever saw New York Harry"
 We are satisfied the prisoner is not New York Harry and are anxious for all persons who know New York Harry to see Rooney" said Attorney Gibson yesterday. For this reason I am bring ing in to him persons almost every day. these being principally persons who saw or knew New York Harry All of these persons have told me Rooney is not the man wanted by the police'
 The authorities continue to receive com munications from the police of other cities relative to New York Harry" but little of the real information they have obtained is being given out. Yesterday another letter was received from the war den of the New Jersey pententiary stat ing that James Hawley. alias New York Harry had served time there for pick ing pockets, and that he fitted the de- scription of James Rooney.
 The officers express confidence in the Ifsult of the habeas corpus hearing next Saturday, but Rooney and his attorneys are just as positive of their expectations that the prisoner will be released.

I regret that it WIS impossible for them to be here tonight. l do not wish to flatter them behind their backs In their youth these gentlemen were said to be promising young men and those who have had transactions with them recently and during the ear shortage period know their propensity for prom ising Is still with them. My first work for the coal company was an effort to get the best class of young men to represent us in the large cities. and l recognized the ability of w. W. Finly and offered him the New Orleans agency, but he preferred to remain In the railroad busl- ness. If he had accepted my offer he no doubt would have been one of the first men in the coal business Look at him now-only second best in the Southern Railway company
 we all know what a gallant Confeder- ate soldier Colonel Andrews made. Com ing out of the war without any money he embarked in the ferry boat business on one of the rivers of North Carolina. If the Colonel had remained on the river he might have been a captain on some me steamboat by this time and made great success in life. Aekert. McManus and Richey were at one time successful opera tors of a small belt line railroad up Tn Illinois near Joliet. But this is not belt railroad. MT. Cotter, the superintendent of the Birmingham division of the South ern. belongs to a family of railroad men, two of his brothers being managers or great lines, but 1t is not expected that all three of the brothers should be in the forefront. They are here, however and we must make the best of them Seriously. MT. Postmaster, the South ern officials are all good fellows and you, MT Conner, will do well if you sue ceed with the state as we'll as they have done and are doing with the Southern railway"

"BEAUCAIRE."
Creston Clarke Gives an Excellent ln-
 dividual Performance.

Creston Clarke played the role of a French prince masquerading as barber at Bath in capital style at the Jefferson theatre last night. As Monsieur Beau calre the actor acquitted himself credit ably in difficult part His adaptation or the Frenchman's broken English was good and his performance marked by the grace and fnesse which Monsieur Beaucaire" demands.
 MT. Clarke's support was indifferent and a new mounting for the play would help matters wonderfully It is true that Mon sleur Beaucaire" is a one-part play, as the saying goes, but excellence in the support is always to be desired. even when minor characters have only a few words to say.

juneau Makes Complete
Back Down

The baseball season has probably clos
ed so far as Southeastern Alaska is con-
cerned. Manager ]. NJ. Tanner received
word Saturday evening that the Juneau
team could not come to Skagwsy, and
withdrawing the challenge for the
Whitehorse challenge cup.
Negotiations have been In progress
several weeks for a game between
Skagwsy and Juneau. The latter
challenged for the cup which Skagway
won on Victoria Day from Whitehorse,
Juneau and Douglas, and successfully
defended at Skagway's Fourth OF July
celebration against the teams from the
same towns. The challenge was re-
ceived about a month ago. Skagway
accepted the challenge and named
August % as the day for the game.
After much backing and filling word
was received last week that the time
would be satisfactory and that there
would be large excursion from Juneau
to this place. Now comes word that
Juneau viii be unable to make good.
It is understood that the game has
been called of because OF the inability
Of the Juneau bsseballists to retain the
services Of battery that was imported
from Tacoma early in the season,
