Attorney Charles w. Baker Of Gin.
cinnati and District Attorney Jerome
of New York are quits, according TO
Cincinnati special dispatch to the New
York World. A few days ago Mr.. Je-
rome caused stir In the Thaw trial
by examining talesmen as to their
knowledge Of "Mr. Baker Of Cincin-
natl" When asked to explain who the
mysterious Mr.. Baker was he re-
marked facetiously, 1.-The pillars Of this
temple need strengthening" The "mys-
FERROUS Mr.. Baker, became the sub.
ject Of scores of press kilograms to as
certain what connection he might have
with the Thaw case.
Mr.. Baker appeared In an ordinary
case at Cincinnati the other day and
examined talesmen.

spectators smiled.

the Juror answered in the negative
Judge Outcault and all present Joined
In the laugh. Mr.. Bakers face never
relaxed its sternness, and he continued:
"Did a Mr.. jerome of New York call
YOU up over the telephone last night
and talk to you about this case?'
mo, SIR
"Have you seen Mr.. Jerome OF
New York or any one who looked like
him hanging around the corridors OF
the courthouse?" The courtroom rang
with laughter.
The next juror was put through the
same course Of questioning. Then judge
Swing suggested:
"Mr. Baker, If you are getting even
with Mr.. Jerome think you have sue
ceeded, and you might examine the
Jurors collectively as to their knowl-
edge Of the mysterious Mr.. Jerome. "
Mr.. Baker did SO. One Of the jurors
turned to another and asked:
"Who In thunder Ia Jerome?"
After court Mr.. Baker was asked
why he had referred to Mr.. Jerome.
He glanced vacantly at the ceiling
saying:
"The walls Of this courthouse need

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the disease, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of tbs
disease. and giving the patient
strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have

Corpse is Hold for a Debt.

San Bernardo, Cal.-Louis, Cohen,
a wealthy wholesale dealer of Pitts
field, Mass, lies in a casket in Wells
Fargo's office here embalmed for the
tomb but altho the expense of shipping
the body is fully prepaid the company
is restrained by court order from
removing the corpse from the bag
gage room, as it has been practically
attached by DR.. Newton e. Heath, of
Boston
DR.. Heath accompanied Cohen here
recently from Boston and claims $235
for nurse charges. Probably no more
grewsome case has ever come before
the eyes of the local public. Heath
alleges he was retained by the family
of the deceased in Pittsfield to ac-
company him to California in hope
that the change would prove beneficial.
Heath boasts of his success in getting
the invalid here alive.

Coolies Exclusion Involved.

Washington, Feb. Sit is indispen-
sable that Japanese children shall be
permitted to enter the public schools
of California on precisely the same
basis as heretofore in order that breach
in the relations existing between le
United States and Japan may be av9t
ed. Such action is also essentia as
preliminary to any negotiations With
Japan for the exclusion of coolies.
This is what President Roosevelt will
say to the board OF education of San
Francisco and Mayor Schmitz at a
conference which will be held.
The president will tell his visitors.
as he did the California delegation in
congress a few days ago, that a crit-
cal situation now confronts the admin
istration. He will assure his callers
tina. it makes no difference whether
Japanese children are entitled to enter
the public schools of San Francisco
under the treaty now in operation or
not, Japan believes they are entitled
to such admission, and will never con-
sent to take up the question of coolie
exclusion until Japan is receiving the
full rights guaranteed by the treaty.
