having been implicated in the looting
of the treasury, but did say:
The district attorneys office would
not take the step of having a complaint
sworn to against any man, unless there
was strong evidence to warrant such a
STEP
David Davis and Fred Winters, who
handled the bulk OF the coin in the
treasurer's Office during the admins
tration of Bantel, and who, like the
other former employees of Bantel, are
under surveillance, were at the district
attorneys office yesterday and talked
with Assistant District Attorney Har-
rison for an hour. They both said that
they visited Harrison of their own ac-
cord.
DAVIS DENIES SWEATING"
There is no truth in the report that
/ was sweated by those carrying on the
investigation in this case" declared
Davis at his home last night II went
TO the district attorneys office this
morning and volunteered to give any
and all information that j could that
would help TO clear up the mysterious
disappearance OF the funds from the
treasurer's Office. Assistant District
Attorney Harrison told me that he had
nothing TO ask me at the present time.
Il am as anxious TO have this matter
cleared up as any one connected with
it, he continued, because every one
who was employed in the treasurer's 5
office at the time the money was taken
is more or less under suspicion.
''Of all the funds handled in the Of
fee, the county clerks special fund was
the only one in our care, Independent OF
the auditor. When warrants were
drawn on this fund they were sent to
Tomalty for his Endorsement. If the
orders were correct and corresponded
TO the figures on his books they would
be paid and entries would be made ac-
counting for the disbursement
When the order for the $37, 900 was
presented. Tomaity could not pay it
because there was not enough money
in the special fund. according 10 To-
malty's books, TO cover it."
There will be conference today be-
tween the city and state officials who
participated in the conference. and 1t
is probable that Tomalty will be called
upon TO make further and more salts
factory explanations regarding his ac-
counts. Although the attorney gen.
erals Office has nothing to do~witli the
prosecution OF TomaIty fors alleged

Attorney General Benjamin is eo-op-

The Wonderful
Blood of Man
Dies And Is Born Again With Every
Breath of The Lungs

Human blood contains red and white
corpuscles. The little red soldiers carry
food, strength and vitality to all parts
of the body and the little white war
rforS fight the battles of the body.
When through poor eating. wrong
digestion. disease or whatever the cause
may be, the blood becomes filed with
poisons and Impurities the little red
work properly and hence they become a
menace rather than an aidNto the rest
of the body.
O,000, 900 corpuscles die with every
breath of the lungs. To rid their ranks
of enemies they throw them into the
cells of the skin or down deep in the
tissues and man has to suffer pimples.

Calcium Sulphide is one ingredient
the greatest blood purifier known to

The remarkable feature about Stuart's
Calcium WATERS is that they act so

Their peculiar charm lies in the
method of manufacture which irsures
the fullest strength of the ingredients
beyond all other manner of prepara-

Bio Ditch Nleetina.

Another hearing in the matter of
Judicial Ditch No. / of Kandiyohi
and Meeker counties was held in
Willmar last Monday afternoon and
yesterday forenoon before Judge
Powers. On the first day six cases
were disposed of by compromise and
on Tuesday the objectors, represent
ed by Atty. Rachie, were settled
with. There are yet several cases
which are in charge of Atty. j. M.
Freeman of Olivia, which have not
yet been passed upon. but on mo-
tion of Mr.. Freeman the hearing
was adjourned until Feb. IS, at 3
p. m. The petitioners in the ditch
case were represented by Atty. M.
D. March of .Litchfeld and Atty.
Chas. johnson Of this city. Friends
of the ditch project are quite satis-
fed with the progress OF the hear
ings so far and seem quite hopeful
that the ditch will be laid out.
The trouble has been in arriving at
just distribution of the costs, ow-
ing to the fact that the ditch laws,
as they now stand, make it difficult
matter.

STATE ENDEAVORERS
State Convention Of E.. E. Societies
viii Meet Next July in Min
nesota's Cleanest City.

Willmar will without doubt have
the privilege of entertaining the
biennial state convention of. the
Christian Endeavor society some
time in July. State President Taf-
ord N. Jayne of Minneapolis was in
the city last Sunday and discussed
the matter with the local C. E. So
ciety and members of the CONNER
cial Club and others. He stated
that the committee having the mat
ter in charge have decided to hold
the convention in this part of the
state and would without doubt con-
slider favorably an invitation from
Willmar. The local society and the
Commercial Club have promptly re-
sponded and will meet all the re-
quirements and hence it is quite
certain that Willmar will entertain
this convention of active young peo-
pie from all parts Of the state.
The convention will begin on a
Thursday and continue over Sunday.
1t is expected that special train
will run up from Minneapolis and
will bring the delegates from Min
neapoils and St. Paul. Owing to
the fact that st. Paul is going to
entertain the convention of the In
ternational C. E. Society next sum-
mer, makes this meeting of the
Minnesota society Of more than or
dinary Importance. as arrangements
for the international convention
will be in the hands of officers
elected here. The program of the
convention will include an excur-
sion to Green Lake.
