cldnS gave neart trouble, Superln-
duced by stomach and kidney ailments
of long standing, as the cause of death.
While Cleveland had been in poor
health for the last two years and had
lost hundred pounds in weight, his
death came Unexpectedly. Three weeks
ago he was brought home from Lake
wood, where his condition for a time
was such that the hotel at which he
was staying was kept open after its
regular season because he was too Ill
to be moved. But when Mr.. Cleveland
was brought back to Princeton he
showed signs of Improvement and ac-
tually gained five pounds in weight.
Although confined to his room con-
tinuously after his return to Princeton,
it was not until yesterday that Cleve-
lands condition aroused uneasiness on
the part of Mrs. Cleveland Undoubt-
edly affected by the heat, Cleveland
showed signs of failure. and Mrs. Cleve-
land telephoned to DR.. Bryant who
came over from New York on the train
arriving here at 4:24 p. m.
DIR. Lockwood followed DIR. Bryant
from New York, and when they reached
here DR.. Carnochan, who had been
Cleveland's local physician since the
former president came to Princeton
was also called in. During the even
ing Cleveland seemed to rally, and
Mrs Cleveland, who always has been
optimistic about her husbands health,
felt assured that it was merely another
of the many attacks Cleveland had suf-
fered and she informed those who in
quired that his condition was not Sc
rious.
GROWS WORSE AT NIGHT
Cleveland became worse during the
night, and Mrs. Cleveland was called
to the bedside of her husband The
distinguished patient sank into uncon-
sciousness, from which he recovered at
times only to suffer a relapse This
continued throughout the night and
early morning. The last time he became
unconscious was about two hours be-
fore he died. Death was peaceful. Just
before he died Cleveland sought to say
something. but his words were maud
ible.
The text of the official statement
given out a short time after Cleveland's
death was as follows:
.Mr. Cleveland for many years suf-
fered from repeated attacks of CASTRO
intestinal origin. He also had long
standing organic disease of the heart
and kidneys. Heart failure, compIi-
Gated with pulmonary thrombosis and
oedema, were the immediate causes of
his death.
Some two or three hours later DR..
BRYANT in answer to a question: said
that ..the heart failure which occa-
hours of the end, and death finally was
due to that" thus corroborating the
unofficial information that Cleveland

OLYMPIA, April 22.-Interpreta-
tions of the direct primary law are
being asked for by the various coun-
ty officials from all parts of the
state and the office of the attorney
general is turning them out at the
rate of one a day. The latest to be
received was from E. W. Garrett,
prosecuting attorney of Island coun-
ty, who is DESTROYS of knowing wheth-
er printing the names of persons for
whom nomination papers have been
filed, would be included in the term
county printing"
The attorney general in reply says:
Il am of the opinion that it is the
duty of county auditor in a county
where there are two or more newspa-
pers, one or more representing the
political party that cast the largest
vote, and one or more representing
the political party that cast the next
| larges vote in the county at the last
preceding general election, to cause
the notices provided for in section s
of our direct primary law to be pub
lished in two newspapers in such
county at the last preceding general
election, regardless of what newspa-
per may be the official county paper
at the time. A newspaper printing
this notice, however, must be paper
Of general circulation in the county.
II am of the opinion further that
in case newspaper having the con-
tract with the county to publish
county official notices, etc, shall at
the county auditors request publish
the notice mentioned in said section
s, the rates for publishing such no.
tice are not necessarily fixed by the

Mrs. May Karr. widow with two

On Monday Crawford and Miss

STRIKE FOR HIGHER WAGES.
Laborers and Carpenters on New Sc
attic Black Quit Work on
Building,

The laborerS on the new building
being erected by Seattle parties on
Heron street near l struck for raise
of 81 day in wages, from 81 to SO,
Monday. The General Engineering
& Construction company of Seattle,
has the contract, and Foreman Bar
wick wired the home office of the
strike. Men were sent down from
Seattle yesterday, and work on the
building was resumed this morning.
The carpenters on the foundation
went out with the laborers, and it is
not known whether the action will
be sanctioned by the Trades Council
or not. When laborers in other lines
are plentiful at $1.75 and 50 a day,
the wisdom of the effort to maintain
a higher rate for the same class of
work on buildings is not apparent
Nor is an action commendable that
may result in shipping in labor from
the Sound cities where it is congest-
ed.
Mr.. Barwick says that while the
company does not belong to the
Builders Exchange OF Seattle, their
inf1eXible rule is to permit no dicta-
ton or interference with their work,
and that he anticipates no trouble at
all in completing the building. Alb
erdeen men were given the prefer
ence, if they do not wish it that is
their business.

THE BANKING ALTERNATIVE.

If Walter Wellman's report of an
extensive inquiry among bankers may
be accepted, there is about to be
formed banking federation of vast
dimensions and portentous possibill-
ties. Such federation would rule
the government, from party primary
to presidential election and from local
tax assessor to secretary of the fed
eral treasury, with an absoluteness
far transcending the present power OF
the banking interests. If this is to
be the alternative of Bryan's plan for
governmental insurance of deposits
and Mr.. Wellman makes its mutual
deposit insurance feature its strong
point-then there is little room for
choice. Under Bryan's plan, the banks
could not combine so completely as to
swing the banking interests at will;
under the other their combination
would be so complete and exclusive
as to turn over the banking business
into the control of an impregnable
ring. Under his plan the banks could
be kept out of politics.; under the
other they would dominate politics.

INTOXICATED INDIAN
SHOOTS AT WOMAN
John Shale Attempts Life Of Mrs.
Harry James on Quiniault In
dian Reservation.

John Shale, the wealthiest Indian
living on the Quiniault Indian Reser-
walton, was arrested Sunday
by Deputy United States Marshal
Slater on the charge of attempting
to kill Mrs. Harry James, a half
breed woman. Shale, it is charged,
was one of six Indians who obtained
a quantity of liquor last week and
then participated in long spree.
Crazed by drink, all went on the war
path, and while the other Indians
fought among themselves, Shale went
to the James residence near Tahelah.
Only Mrs. James was at home, but
Shale, fearing to approach too close
to the house, ambushed himself be-
hind tree stump and fired into the
James cabin. Mrs. James returned
the fire with revolver, but had only
a few cartridges. The drunken In
dian lay for five hours firing at Mrs.
James at regular intervals, while the
terrified woman lay on the floor in
the corner of the shanty farthest re-
moved from Shales fire.
Shale was SOLDERING up and his aim
was becoming more accurate, when a
party Of Indian police arrived and
put an end to the unequal combat.
United States Commissioner Seth
Warren, of Hoquiam, held Shale to
appear before the federal grand jury,
under $4,000 bail. He is in the
Pierce County Jail now.

SIMPLE WASH CURES ECZEMA
Itching, Burning Skin Disease Rout.
ed Without Use Of Injurious Drugs.

Great inventors often have been
praised for surrendering the secrets
of their discoveries. Practically the
same thing happened in the medical
world in the case of DR.. Decatur D.
Dennis, the eminent skin specialist
of Chicago.
DR.. Dennis, in his own office prac-
tice, discovered that pure vegetable
oil of wintergreen, properly mixed
with other simple remedies, was
practically sure specific for Eczema,
psoriasis, BARRIERS itch, salt rheum,
and other itching skin diseases. But
the oil of wintergreen alone was
found ineffective. 1t required other
mild ingredients such as glycerine
and thymol compounded with the
wintergreen, to produce the real &C.
zema cure.
This compounded D. D. D. Pres
cription positively takes away the
itch at once-the instant it is ap-
piled to the skin. This vegetable
liquid does away with deleterious
drugs so long used in an attempt to
doctor the blood, whereas modern
science has determined that eczema
is first and all the time a skin dis
ease.
If you want to know more about
the merits of D. D. D. Prescription,
call at our store. We vouch for this
remedy. Red Cross pharmacy.

THROWN OVERHEARD At SEA
Little Child May Have Been Alive
When Mother Was Induced to
Part With 1t.

New York, April 16.-An extraordi-
nary tale of the burial at sea of a child
which may have been alive when

ficers of the steamer Statendam when
that vessel arrived today from Rotter-
dam.
The child is said to have been thrown
overheard by her own mother. Mrs.
Bertha LZybik of Poland She was
coming to this country with two chill
dren, the youngest of whom was Elso,
about a year old. On the way over the
child became i'll with commissions and
in about an hour was apparently dead.
The other passengers of the steerage
objected TO the presence of the body on
board, and informed the mother that
unless the child was thrown overheard
storm would overwhelm the steamer
About midnight the body of the child
was thrown into the sea. Officers of
the steamer soon discovered what had
happened and the ships surgeon who
made inquiries. is said to have ex-
pressed the fear that the child was
merely in a cOmatOse state and might
have been revived under medical treat
ment. Mrs. Lzybik was taken to Ellis
island.
