Joseph e. Doane, twenty-one years old,
came to frightful death Friday after
noon, in the saw-mill of the Eastern
Manufacturing Co., at South Brewer, by
being drawn into the rapidly moving saws
of a gang-edger. His head was literally
sliced in pieces by the saws, and one arm
mangled to a jelly. Although fifty men
were working all around him, no one saw
the accident, and exactly how the boy
could have been drawn into the machine
is a puzzle to old miIl-men. No accident
of the kind has ever been known, and the
construction OF the machine seems to
make such impossible.

Dyspepsia.

Although Indigestion and Dyspepsia are
SO prevalent, most people do not thorough
ly understand their cause and cure. There
is no reason why people should not eat
anything they desire-if they will only
chew it carefully and thoroughly. Many
actually starve themselves into sickness
through fear OF eating every good-looking,
good-smelling and good-tasting food, be-
cause it does not agree with them.
Dieting cannot cure Dyspepsia. II we
refuse every article OF food that disagrees
with us, before long we have nothing left,
and find ourselves chronic dyspeptics.

Percival Palmer Purchases Lots
From William Crosby That
Were in Dispute

OAKLAND, July 16.-After investi-
cations which led to tentative charges
that a fraud had been committed. Per-
cival Palmer of Berkeley has closed a
deal with William Crosby for several
lots in Fifty second street. which had
been subject to a suit filed by Palmer
against Crosby. On top of the litiga-
tion, Palmer made some investigation
as to rumors that the deeds We're i'm
properly signed. He explained tonight
that as result of his inquiries he
was satisfied that all was straight.
The deed over which the trouble
arose transferred several lots in Fifty
second street to Palmer. He filed a suit
against Crosby last week. asking to
have Crosby restrained from negotiat-
ing promissory note for 1900 given
as part payment on the ground that in
addition to mortgage on the property
for $4,000 which was known, there
were also several mechanics liens. the
existence of which Crosby was said TO
have concealed. An imperfect title was
also alleged in the suit, but all these
have been cleared away, Palmer said,
and the suit will probably be dismissed

indicate that the prosecution of Mrs.
Isabella J. Martin for the alleged dyna-
hitting of Judge Ogdens house will
be conducted with a scope and thor
oughness surprising any trial ever
held In Alameda county.
District Attorney E. j. Brown has in
structed his assistants TO spare no eX-
pense in securing evidence.
The weight of the case against the
woman will fall upon handwriting ex-
perts, as scraps of paper found in the
vicinity of Judge Ogden's home and
which Baby John Martin in his con-
fession said were wrapped about the
Internal machine, bore traces Of writ
ing said to have been that of the pris-
oner. These writings will be COM
pared with threatening letters written
to Judge Ogden prior to the outrage.
If 1T can be shown that Mrs. Martin
wrote the alleged threatening letters
and also was the author of the words
and figures found on the scraps Of
paper. the officials believe that the
case against her will be sufficient TO
secure a conviction.
Max Eisenschimmel of San Fran
cisco has charge of the handwriting
portion of the evidence. He has en-
larged copies of the writings obtained
from various sources and the charts
will be so large as TO reach nearly to
