Murderer,

Berkeley Cal, Nov. 30.-Habeas

failed to release Harry Kleinschmidt,
accused of the murder of Frank Bel
lows, and the student had to go back
to Jail in Oakland.
The case was continued yesterday
until Tuesday, when Judge Harris
will render a decision.
The defense is preparing to use
the evidence of prominent society
girl of the University Of California,
to prove that Kleinschmidt was en-
gagged to her and necessarily could
not have harbored hatred to Bellows

that this State offered fiattering pros

them interested. At last the work is

Elliott county is the first and only

made an effort to determine the pos

been in alluvial deposits, and one of
the best was a 24-karat stone of fine

Another fine road, 1900 miles in

Peshawur, at the frontier of Afghan

feet repair, and were built originally
for military purposes before the ad-
vent of railroads. Many of the native

roads. OF course the nature of the
country plays part in the existence
of the roads, and now they serve as

The Emergency Juror.

There should be thirteenth Juror

these uncertain times, barring any
supersitious feeling he might have in

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
DUN's WEEKLY SUMMARY
Movement of Merchandise in Most
Sections Has Resumed Normal
Proportions.

Despite holiday and weather inter-
ruptions, the volume of business is
we'll maintained. In most sections of
the country the movement of mer-
chandise has resumed normal proper
tions, snow blockades being remov-
ed, but tardy deliveries still cause
much complaint, especially in regard
to grain.
Retail stocks of winter goods were
most satisfactorily depleted during
the period of low temperature, and
the new season will open under favor
able auspices. Wholesale and jobbing
houses report liberal spring demand,
particularly in dry goods, while at the
interior there is vigorous move
ment of agricultural implements and
other farm supplies.
A gratifying feature of many reports
is the greater promptness of mercan-
tile collections Mills and factories
have so much forward business that
new contracts are not taken except at
full figures, and there is dissatisfaction
because shipments are not more
prompt Wages have been advanced
in several important concerns, and
there are no serious labor controver-
sizes.
Iron and steel producers are re-
ceiving much new business, contracts
covering deliveries still further into
the future, many lines being sold up
TO the last quarter of the year.
1t is not possible TO discern any evi-
dence of reaction in any section of
the industry, although there is a
seasonable quiet in structural shapes
that has facilitated much-needed
increase in production of billets.
Textile mills continue well employ
ed, with especial pressure for prompt
delivery of cotton goods.

Spiders That Weave silk.

Most of us have read of the fairy
princess who wore a spider-web gown,
but we never expected to see that
fabric in reality. Now Signor Gal
lieni, governor of the island of NADIA
gascar, off the southeast coast Of
Africa, sends word to America that
he has opened factory where the
workers are weaving the webs of GER
tain spiders Of the island into beau
tiful silken fabrics which are shipped
to Paris and made up into ladies'
gowns. Thousands of spiders work
day and night in their cages in the
big room in the factory given over to
them, and they industriously spin
millions of yards of their strong silk
threads, which are carefully wound
and taken to the weaving rooms.

OF Interest to Women.

Every woman naturally should be
healthy and strong, but great many
women, unfortunately, are not, owing to
the unnatural condition of the lives we
lead. Headache, backache and general
tired condition are prevalent amongst the
women of to-day, and to relieve these con-
ditions women rush to the druggists for a
bottle of some preparation supposed to be
particularly for them, and containing
nobody knows what. If they would just
get box of Brandreth's Pills, and take
them regularly every night for time, all
their trouble would disappear, as these
pills regulate the organs of the feminine
system The same dose hes The same

Brandreths Pills have been in use for
over a century and are sold in every drug
