MILITARY PARADE
 OF NATIONAL GUARD
Soldiers Made a Fine Appearanee- A Delicate Courtesy Paid To Comrade of Other Days.

The nine companies of the national guard of Arizona which are partici- pating in the annual encampment at the fair ground, yesterday marched to tie city in battalion formation under the command of Colonel J. H. McClin- tock and staff. The men made fine appearance being attired in kahki uni- forms and the staff officers being mounted on prancing steeds.
 An incident of a pleasing and af- feeting nature occurred on the march down town Charles Ingalls, who now lives with his parents. General and Mrs. Ingalls, on North Seventh avenue, formerly lived in Yuma and was lieutenant of Company H of that city For the last two years he has been closely confined to his home by rheu riatism, of which he has suffered se- verely. only recently being able to leave\ his bed.
 As the guardsmen passed the Ingalls, home yesterday afternoon. in full view oftthe young man who sat in a chair, the officers saIuted him and the band played Should Auld Acquaintance Be Forgot" It was a beautiful tribute of remembered friendship and Mir. In- gals expressed his appreciation with tears in his eyes.
 The soldiers continued south to Washington street. thence east to Fifth through the center of the city. thence south to Jefferson and west a block to the vacant square between Washington and Jefferson. Here they were put through a series of drills for the benefit of a considerable crowd who had gathered to pay their re- spects and to witness the maneuyers. At their conclusion the soldiers marched back to Camp Kibbey having won complimentary expressions from thelips of all who saw them. They will break camp today, about 225 Tf the men or something over two-thirds of them leaving tonight for Camp Atascadero. Cal.

The mother of the child, Mrs. Willie Barlow Cline who lived here until a few months ago came in yesterday morning from the Laguna dam where she is employed, and going to the school took the little girl away. She said that she had learned that the grandmother her own mother had been beating the child mercilessly. The little girl however went with her mother unwilhngly and tearfully.
 As soon as Mrs. Black learned what had been done she filed a complaint in probate court charging her daugh- ter with being a dissOlute person and with being unfit to have the custody of the child. The matter was set for hearing in the afternoon. Though regular service was not Obtained on Mrs Cline she heard that the pro ceedings had been instituted and she called at the office of the sheriff say ing that she would appear with the little girl at the time set She was there, and her mother. accompanied by another daughter was on hand to show that Mrs. Cline was not a proper guardian for the child.
 In the course of the testimony of the sister Of Mrs. Cline tending to show a Iooseness of morals on the part of the defendant Mrs. Cline re-

torted that the witness was not aDoNe reproach and spoke of her doings m St. Louis not many years ago the sister rose in her wrath and there was a strong appearance of an intention to mix it then and there. The court in tervened and warned the parties that he had power to punish for contempt without trial by jury not withstanding the declaration or that subject of the democratic nation al platform. order was restored and the sister of Mrs Cline, denying the charge in full of her St. Louis indis- cretions. admitted that she had not led a Sunday school life there but she said her past was behind her and that now she would not take her hat off to anybody for good morals.
 The court was unable to reach final decision in this puzzling case and accordingly he committed the little girl to the care of the Crittenton Home until he could arrive at con- clusion. Mrs. Cline was deeply gricv- ed at the turn the thing had tem- porarily taken.
 The case of the Clines first came to the attention of the authorities last spring when complaint was made that the husband had abandoned his wife and was about to leave the country

MORE SPECIFIC BILL
 OF Hit COAST ROADS
In Lumber Rate Cases it is Alleged Commission Act was Confiscatory.

San Francisco, oct. 1-Declaring that the rate fixed by the interstate commerce commission on lumber ship ped from the Willamette Valley to San Francisco Bay points in confisca- tory. and attacking the constitutionali- ty of the act creating the commission. attorneys representing the Southern Southern Pacific and Oregon and Cal ifornia railroads. today filed in the United States circuit court of appeals a new bin of complaint containing al- legations omitted in the previous pro .ceedings, which ended yesterday in a decision upholding the demurrer of the government.
 In the original application for an in junction. the transportation companies rested their case upon the contention that the commission was not vested with power of fixing or altering freight rates and besought the court to review the findings of the commission.
 Attorneys for the government were given until two o'clock today to pre- pare an answer to the new bill. It is probable that the argument upon the new grounds will require several days.
 This afternoon the federal attorneys filed with the court a demurrer to the amended complaint of the railroads. passing their objection to the granting of the injunction on the same grounds as set forth in the previous case. That the complaint does not show sufficient cause for action. The case was then argued until the close of ses- sion and will be resumed tomorrow"
 One of the features of the amend ed complaint of the railroads is the declaration that the interstate com merce commission in fixing the rate against which railroads are fighting, not only exceeded it's authority but set the new rate at an unjust and unrea- sorable figure. .oa

leg was peeled from the knee, my foot was like piece of raw flesh, and had to walk on crutches. I bought cake of Cuticura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment, and a bottle of Cuticura Pills. After the first two treatments the swelling went down, and in two months my leg was cured and the new skin came on. The doctor could not believe his own eyes when he saw that Cuticura had cured me and said that he would use it for his own patients. 1 used two cakes of Cuticura Soap, three boxes of Ointment, and five bot ties of Resolvent, and have now been cured over seven years, and but for the Cuticura Remedies I might have lost my life. 1 have lots of grand children, and they are frequent users of Cuticura, and I always recommend it to the many people whom my busi- ness brings to my house every. day.

FOREST REVENUES
 FOR TERI TORY
The Governments Split" With the Counties For the School and Road Funds.

The governors office has received notice that the United States treas urer has been directed to forward to the governor for the benefit of the territorial treasurer. a draft for s42.610.44. That amount is 25 per cent of the revenues derived from the national forests in Arizona during the fiscal year ending June 90, 1908, and which under an act of congress is turned over to the territory for the benefit of the counties in which the forests are situated, in proportion to the forest acreage in each county. Under an act of the legislature the auditor disburses the amounts due the counties and the supervisors of each county dispose of it in their wisdom for the benefit of the school and road funds. The draft has not been received yet and it will take some time to make up the estimates after it is received.
 Following are the respective amounts received from each of the national forests, 25 per cent of their total revenue:

IS the r. 4 o. to Build the cut-offf

Is the B. & o. to Build the cut-0ffr
1t is again rumored that the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad is to build its
low. grade line between North Noun
tain and Hsrper's Ferry by way of
Shepherdstown. Several years ago
the company bought the right of way
needed for the construction of this
line, paying a couple of hundred thou
sands dollars for property in Jefferson
and Berkeley counties and securing
all necessary tracts save one or two,
about which no agreement could be
reached. The first link, between
Cherry Run and North Mountain,
was completed, and then active work
was stopped.
1t is now asserted that the work
will be taken up on this end of the
line and will be pushed right along
during the coming. summer. 1t is
said that the contract has been award
ed to King & Co., who have just com.
pleted the big west freight yards Of
the B. & o. at Brunswick, though We
cannot vouch for the accuracy of the
statement.
One reason given for the beginning
of this work is the fact that the West
Virginia Legislature recently passed
a law by which railroads may not
hold rig ts-of- way indefinitely. IN
less they build the lines surveyed they
lose their rights after certain time.
1t is possible that the law may cause
the company to hurry little.
The B. & o. began an important
improvement the first of the week that
may possibly have given rise to the
runners above noted. This is the re-
laying of the twenty miles OF track
between Msrtinsburg and WsVerton.
The old rails, which weigh IS pounds
to the yard, will be taken up and 100
pound rails laid, and new ties and
ballast will be put in-practically re-
building the line. The work will re-
quire over 5000 tons Of new rails, be-
sides a vast quantity Of new ballast,
and the estimated cost is 100000.
A force Of l25 Italians has been put
on the work, which, it is estimated,
will be finished by next December.

of the Kidneys so that they can filter
and strain from the blood and system
the poisons, acids and waste matter,
which cause not only Rheumatism
but numerous other diseases Every

their kidneys are not healthy and &C.
tive, or who suffers from any urinary
trouble whatever, should not hesitate
to make up this mixture, as it is GER

YOU from much misery and suffering
after while.

either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take If our
readers ask them.

The Death Record.

The Death Record.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Stanley have
again been sorely bereaved in the
death of a son-the second visitation
from the grim monster, death, within
week. Az announced in our last Is
sue, Gardiner Stanley, their youngest
son, aged twelve years, died the week
previous from pneumonia. The day
he wa. buried George W. Stanley, q
brother, became quite i'll with what
was first thought to be appendicitis.
He grew steadily worse, and on Fri
day DR.. Venning, of Charles Town
was called into consultation with the
local physicians. They agreed IN
their diagnosis that it was a severe
case of peritonitis. Although there
wa. but little hope of saving his life,
an operation was decided upon, and
accordingly it was performed Friday
night by DR.. Venning, assisted by
physicians of this town. 1t was found
that the disease had made great prog
ress, and no hope could be held out to
the family. Saturday morning about
half, .st FIVE o'clock he passed away,
being conscious to the last and fully
prepared for the end George Stanley
was one of the beet young men in our
community, and his sad death has
caused great regret among a vide CIR
Gle of friends. he was for couple OF
wears a clerk in W. P. Lickllder' &
store, where his cheerful disposition
and obliging manner rendered him
very popular. BE was Christian OF
deep piety, a consistent member OF the
Southern Methodist Church and an &C.
tive and influential leader in church
work. He will be missed in the
church and Sunday School. The fu'
neral was held in the NJ. E Church
South on Monday afternoon, and was
attended by large number of per:
sons. Rev. Il. I. Stephens preached
the sermon, and the body was inferred
in the Reformed Cemetery. Mr..
Stanley, who was l9years, 3 months
and 26 days of age, is survived by his
parents, two brothers and FIVE sisters.

which they are passing

Another cid Landmark Gone.

Another venerable Shepherdstown
landmark was laid low this week to
give way to modern improvement
when ths brick building belonging to
J. L. Welshans, on Main street, was
torn down. This is one of the old
buildings Of the town, but just when
it was erected we have not been able
to ascertain. James R. Richard re-
members back some seventy-fve years,
when it was occupied as general
store by Ming" Turner. Later it
was used as a liquor saloon, and it is
said that there used to be some eI-
citing games of cards, with high
stakes, among local citizens of sport
ing blood. Some fifty or sixty years ago
Jos. s. Fleming had his shoemaker &
shop in one part of the building, while
Michael Deck, father of VIM. R. Deck,
used the front part as a barber shop.
Mr.. Fleming remembers very we'll
the campaign of 1910, when the Wings
used the upper part Of the building as
hall, and eloquent speeches were
made there by various candidates.
One side of the hall was graced with
life-size pictures of Tecumseh and 9th
er Indian chiefs, painted by the late
Alex R. Shepherd. 1t is said that
Joseph Jefferson, the famous actor
who died few years ago, once played
in this hall when young man just
beginning hi. successful career on the
stage. The upper story was later par
titioned off, and for the past "a years
has been occupied by G. NJ. Beltz-
hoover, Esq, as law Office.
81. O. Marten began his business ca
reer in shepherdstown in this build
ing some thirty-odd years ago, and al
ter he left, the late q. G. Entler start
cd clothing store, later selling out
to T. B. Line, who has used it ever
since.
Mr.. Welshans will erect hand.
some two.story building 25IS0 feet on
the lot, with an attractive front Of
glass and pressed brick. The upper
story will contain a couple of Offices
and rooms communicating with bis
