BROTHER KILLS BROTHER

TACOMA, Dec. 26.-William Hof-

to the state. But this applies only
when it is willed to collateral or
distant heirs.
The theory of an inheritance tax
law in the United States Is not to
make a special exception of the di-
rect heir, but to tax the devised es-
tate, no matter whether 1t goes to
direct or indirect heirs. The Ameri-
can notion is that the very large
accumulations of Nancy ought to

be broken up, and that this tax will
help to dissipate them. So even
when left directly to an only daugh-
ter the estate would pay the trib-
ute of 20 per cent to the govern
ment. 1t goes on the theory that
anyone who inherits, without any
effort or labor, as much as five or
ten million dollars, car get along
with what is left after the govern
ment takes fifth of it.

Cararrh Season.

At the first warning of catarrh one
should begin using Hyomei. The dis
ease Is very common at this season of the
year, but few days treatment will often
prevent serious and long-continued
case of catarrh.
If the breath is catarrhal aud offensive,
OF there is irritation in the throat, or
dropping at the back of the throat, begin
the use Of Hyomei at once.
You lun no risk in paying Graham &
Wells $I.0O for a Hyomei outfit with
which they give their personal guarantee
that if the remedy does not afford relief
your money will be refunded at once,
making it the most economical cure for
catarrh as we'll as the only one that is
sold under guarantee.

GREAT INTEREST TAKEN.
In Worlds Fair in SeattIe-Work
Well Under Way.

The great Yukon-Alaskan Ex-
position that takes place in June
90 is attracting world wide in
terest. Just one year ago fifty
representative citizens of Seattle
formed themselves into a COM
pany for the purpose of holding a
lgreat worlds fair, and now the
work OF creating the enterprise
is far advanced and progressing
rapidly and smoothly.
The past exposition year
which has been full of important
events, is looked back upon by
the management with grati6ca-
ton, as has been devoted to,
perhaps the hardest task of any
that will be confronted, the sue
cessful launching of the worlds
fair. From how on it will be
the aim OF the management to
have every detail of the exposi-
ton completed for the opening
day, June I, 1909.
All preparatory work of the
exposition is we'll under way.
There has been raised by the sale
o. the capital stock and by state
appropriations the sum of $2,-
oS7, 900. Two administrative
divisions, exploitation and works,
have been thoroughly organized,
the plan Of the grounds has been
adopted, and ground breaking
day, when active work will be-
gin, has been set for June Ist.
Within the years time the expo
sition and the work for which it
stands has become known all
over this country and abroad,
aud the exploitation it has re-
ceived has resulted in many
states and countries signitying
their intention to take part.
Although the bill approprla-
ting 500, 900 for the participa-
ton OF Alaska, Hawaii and the
PHILIPPINES passed by the United
States senate did not get through
the house at the last session of
congress. the senate's action in
sures the passage OF an exposi-
ton bill early next session. A
new bill providing for an expen-
diture of 81, 100, 900 for the ex-
hibits and buildings OF the gen
eral government, Alaska, Ha-
waii and the Philippines has
been prepared.
Appropriations have already
been made by Oregon, California,
Washington, Missouri. Utah and
Pennsylvania, and the senate in
Wisconsin has passed a bill ap-
priating SIS, 900. Exposition
legislation is pending in Illinois.
Many states which did not in
tend to take part this year are
expected to pass bills at the next
meetings of their legislatures,
and there are fourteen 9th er
states, whose legislatures did not
coavene this year, that will be
urged to participate.

Harry Davis Has Gone.

After an illness OF three months
with tuberculosis of the bowels,
Harry Davis, son of Or. and Mrs.
M. M. Davis of this city, passed
away at the family home at $40
O'Clock yesterday morning. The
funeral will occur from the resi-
dence this afternoon at 2 O'Clock,
the services to be conducted by
Rev. ]. R. N. Bell, and inter
ment will be in Crystal Lake
C metery.
Harry Davis was born at New
port, Oregon, March 51st, 1883,
and had spent nearly all of his "a
years of life in this part of Ore
gon. The past two years he had
been wo. King in Southern Calf
ornia and Nevada, but about 3
months ago be had an attack of
dysenterv which refused to yield
10 treatment, and his mother
went to California to nurse him.
He grew worse, however, and
the father went to the bedside
also, and a few weeks ago the
parents brought him home. All
that love and skill could do has
been dohe, but the young life
went out in spite of all human
effort.
Harry Davis was a bright
young man, and had many
friends. The relatives have the
deepest sympathy OF the COM
munity in their sorrow.
