The reauers or this paper Will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that science
has been able TO cure in all It's stages
and that Is catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity.
Casarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally. acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system, thereby destroying the foun-
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing it's work. The proprietors nave
so much faith in its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails TO cure.

Mayalipmam. India, has seven OF the
most remarkable temples in the world,
each OF these unique places of worship
having been fashioned from solid gran

and the task OF chiseling out the int

the smallest of the seven Is twenty
four feet high, seventeen feet long and
twelve feet wide. Travellers who have
carefully examined them are OF the

IRWIN COURT MARTIAL
IS BEGUN At VALLEJO
Director Littlehe1d Wanted
by Defense to Face
Accused Officer

VALLEJO, Feb. 2S.-The court mar
tial of Paymaster John Irwin Jr., the
son of the former commandant of the
Mare Island Navy Yard. and the late
pay officer of the transport Lawton,
opened its sessions at the navy yard
today. There are three charges against
Irwin, covering an alleged Shortage of
$500 in his accounts and alleged neg
lect of duty.
These are the outcome of the report
OF Pay Director Charles Littlefeld.
AT the opening of court the meager
reports OF the pay inspector were in
troduced. but they were so lacking in
force that the defendants counsel
asked that Littlefeld himself be sum-
moned to face the accused officer In
court Littlefleld Is IN Europe.
1t is claimed by Irwin's friends that
the supposed shortage was only a
mistake in the figures of Irwin's clerk
and that as soon as an alleged short
age was announced Irwin had the
books exported and the amount short
was placed to the credit of the Gov
ernment.

Until Deputies Take
Matter Up

PARIS. Feb. 2s.-The general feeling
of alarm created by the increase of
crime in France was echoed In the
Chamber of Deputies today by an in
terpellation of the Government on the
insecurity of life in Paris as well as
in the country.
All along the Belgian frontier a reg
ular band of bandits has been. rob-
bing and numbering for two years. and
its depredationss continue in spite of
the fact that the police early in Feb
ruary succeeded in arresting the. ring
leaders.
During two years this gang has COM
mitted thousands of robberies and muir
ders. The streets of Paris, especially
in the Montmartre district. are terror
lied by "apaches," as they are called,
and are no longer safe for pedestrians.
The newspapers for weeks past have
been filed with stories of robberies
and murders, the victims being struck
down with knives.
NJ Cochin, Liberal, declared that in
many sections of the country the gem
darmerie were unable to cope with the
brigands and the inhabitants are arm
ing for self-protection.

Defendant Issues Statement
and Grows More Restless
SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE CALL

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-Harry Thaw's
strange conduct today in disregard
ing the wishes OF his lawyers and sur
reptuously giving 10 the press a
statement attacking Jerome was as
annoying TO his counsel as it was
pleasing to Jerome. for it IS in line
with the District Attorneys plan TO
have q commission in lunacy ap-
pointed
Although Thaw today expressed him
self as highly pleased with the pres
ent aspect of his trial and cheerfully
predicted that he viii be free within
two weeks, observers who notice him
daily cannot fail TO note increasing
restlessness. and impatieHce.
None see this more closely than the
State alienists, Drs- Flint. Mcdonald
and Mabon. They express no opinion
as TO his present mental condition,
but many laymen, noting his erratic
actions and appearance. are easily
persuaded OF the likelihood that the
celebrated trial may yet culminate in
the session Of a luIacy commission.
Jerome viii not take the initiative
IN so radical q departure until he is
well satisfied not .only chat Thaw was
but also that he rs now insane. The
District Attorney realizes that should
he call for a suspension Of trial pend
ing the session Of such commission
and should that body thereupon pro-
nounce the defendant now sane re-
sumption Of the trial after such a
diversion would hold out little pros
pect Of a conviction.
jerome therefore. while leaving
nothing undone to sift the facts on
which rests the Insanity defense, con-
tinues TO fight with all his resources
against what is really the covert de-
Tense Of alleged justification.
DR.. B. -. Evans, expert alienist for
the defendant, who held the witness
chair all day, fairly divided the honors
OF war with the District Attorney dur
ing the five hours Of cross -exanina-
tion, which viii be resumed tomorrow.
II was just before adjournment and
after many hours of expert testimony
as 10 the meaning Of extracts from
eight letters written by the defendant
with relation TO the sanity or insanity
OF the writer that Thaw gave his
statement 10 the reporters.
In il he took District Attorney
JerOme to task for not comprehending g
"the natural real goodness" Of Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw, and cOmplimented his
wife for bearing up so well under the
attacks Of Jerome, backed by his
blacklegs."
