yesterday. Mr. Miner says San Diego is a nice city and he likes it there but rather prefers Phoenix, and the more for the reason that he suffers from rheumatism in San Diego, though Mrs. Miner was greatly ben efited. They made a mistake in get ting two different brands of rheuma- tism in the family. Mrs. Miner is so much better however that she is will again if he wishes it. for she prefers to live here also. She did not ac- company her husband though prefer ing to wait until he gets settled.
 There is quite a colony of Phoenix people in the harbor city now as permanent residents and all seem to be doing well. MT. Miner mentioned quite a number of the later ones to settle there. James Dalton is run ming a livery business and doing well. Mir. Mckee a former Phoenix carpen ter is busy in San Diego, H. G. Peek ings has a good tailoring business and l.. C. Masten is counted among the prosperous real estate dealers. Louis Wetzler who formerly run a truck garden here has a seven acre garden north of San Diego. Rev D. Battin has a twenty acre farm he is tilling at Otay few miles from San Diego and Mir. DOlson has gone into the building business. There are many others that he might mention but the blanket announcement that they are all doing well covers the case.

 When the train arrived in Douglas last evening bearing the Oklahoma h. dians, several hundred residents of the Shelter City were at the depot Street cars were provided ready at the depot and the Indians left the train with their baggage and took the trolley cars and went direct to the baseball park where they will camp during their stay in Douglas. The Mexican KickapOos have been in camp at the San Bernardino ranch and are ex- pecred to reach Douglas tomorrow morning when a general reunion will be held before the time for beginning the business for which the government has brought the tribe together.
 The Kickapeo is not unlike the Pap agoes in appearance. Many of them were pretty well dressed, while others wore plain overalls, but a scarcity of blankets were noticeable.
 Judge Fletcher NJ. Doan of Tomb stone and District Clerk Wilcox have been directed to be present at the con- ference and see that what is done is regularly done and properly recorded.

THE MARRIAGE HELD UP
 BY VARIOUS OBSTACLES
One Thing is the Certain Loss of Half Of Madame Goulds Estate.

Paris, May 1S.-When and where the wedding of Prince de Sagan and Ma dame Gould will take place has not yet been decided. They regard them selves as engaged and would like to solemnize the marriage immediately Certain peculiar circumstances how ever. prevent.
 First, there is the clause in Jay GOuld's will reducing the share of each child one half if he or she marries without the consent of the executors iThe most serious obstacle is Count Boni's attitude. which involves pos sible limitation of Mme Gould's rights over her children. Boni naturally is furious at the idea of the wedding and makes no concealment of his intention to demand a modification of the di- vorce decree which gave her the GUS tody of the children, passing his de- mand on the ground that the prince would not be a suitable step-father
 To circumvent this situation, the marriage might occur abroad. perhaps in England but this would involve a decision to reside in future beyond the jurisdiction of the French courts un- less some settlement could be effected with count Boni
 The question of religious ceremony does not stand in the way Mme Gould is protestant and the marri- age would occur before a protestant minister. To do this it would not be be necessary for the prince to change his religion; he would only be obliged accept the protestant rite

DOCTOR ADVISED
 USE IF CUTICURA
After Other Treatment Failed Eczema in Raw Spot on Baby Boys Face Lasted for MOnths- Cried with Pain when Washed.
ECZEMA WAS CURED AND
 HAS NEVER REAPPEARED

"Our baby boy broke out with eczema on his face when one month old. One place on the side of his face the size of a nickel was raw like beef steak for three months. and he would cry out when 1 bathed the parts that were sore and broken out. l gave him three months treatment from a good doctor, but at the end of that time the child was no better. Then my doctor recommended Cuticura. After using a cake of Cuticura Soap, a third of box of Cuticura Ointment, and half a bottle of Cuticura ItesOlvent he was well and his face was as smooth as any baby's. He is now two years and a half old and no eczema has reappeared. l am still using the CuticUra Soap; 1 think it is the finest toilet soap l ever used. I keep my little girls hair and face cleansed with it too. 1 am so thankful for what Cuticura has done for us. Mrs. NJ. L. Harris, R. F. D. l, Alton, Kan, May Ii and June l2, 'O7."

FEEDING FOR HEALTH. Directions by a Food Expert.

X cuTplete change in food makes a complete change in the body. There fore if you are ailing in any way, the surest road back to health is to change your diet Try the following breakfast for ten days and mark the result.
 Two soft boiled eggs, Gf you have a weak stomach, boil the eggs as follows put two eggs into a pint tin cup of boiling water, cover and set off the stove. Take out in nine minutes; the whites will be the consistency of cream and partly digested. Don't change the directions in any particularly some fruit, cooked or raw. cooked preferred, slice of toast, a little butter four heaping teaspoonsfuls of Grape Nuts with some cream, a cup of properly boiled Postum Food Coffee.
 The Grape-Nuts breakfast food is fully and scientifically cooked at the factory. and both that and the Postum have the diastase (that which digests the starchy parD developed in the manufacture. Both the food and the coffee, therefore, are predigested and assist, in natural way, to digest the balance of the food. Lunch at noon the same.
 For dinner in the evening use meat and one or two vegetables. Leave out the fancy desserts Never over-eat. Better a little less than too much.
 If you can use health as a means to gain success in business or in a pro- fession it is well worth the time and attention required to arrange your diet to accomplish the result. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. There's Reason"

ter to Conyers again until on the 29th of June, when l returned from Atlanta, having gone there on June N On this date l met him at Joe Blassingame's ard had a pint bottle of liquor, offered him a drink-he would not drink in the house, but we went up the street and we stopped under a storehouse porch, near Main street We took a drink or two, and I started the Brownsville case again. He told me that he was doing guard duty at the time of the shooting at Brownsville, and was stationed at the outlet toward the town. He said that when the guard was called the night or the shooting they mentioned to Sergeant Reid what had occurred downtown, and he said, Boys, if you are not satisfied, you will have to go and get satished,' and they remarked that they were go- ing to get satisfaction that night. Reid then laughed and said, Boys, don't you go down there and let them get the best of you. He then assigned the guard and went away.
 "In the conversation, Conyers told me that John Brown, J. H. Holloman, and a man named Powell, and several others, oeme down where he was on guard, and that they went downtown and just gave them he'll and after they shot out all of their cartridges they ran back to the barracks, and when they got back to the barracks they found that the alarm had been sounded and the officers were calling the roll. Holloman, Brown and himself were late for roll call, but that some one answered for Brown and Hol- loman, but that he was late, and that Reid told him that they had gotten them selves and him in a hell of a hole, and told him to go to the guardhouse and pretend to be asleep, which he did.
 He told me that they shad slipped few cartridges when at target practice and that before inspection, after the shooting Reid gave him some cartridges to replace the ones he had used. He further said that they had all agreed before they went out that they would keep their mouths, and that he would have told them at the investigation at Washington all about the shooting, but that he was afraid. I had no further talk with Conyers, because l saw that was being suspected by the negroet arc und Monroe, Ga.

stand, so Reid stationed him at the rear of the guardhouse in the dark where he could not be scrutinized so closely.
 Holloman came around with extra cartridges about daybreak and Reid passed them ouc. The guns were all cleaned before daylight.
 This day personally appeared before me William Lawson, who, being duly sworn, desposes and says:
 "On June 5, 1908, l was sent to Monroe, Ga, to interview Boyd Conyers, one of the soldiers who was stationed at Browns Vile, Tex, in August, 1906. l was sent by Mir. Baldwin to get in with Conyers and ascertain if he knew who did the shooting at that point. 1 was not given the names of any of the members of either of the companies stationed at that point, nor was l given any other infor ma ton, except the fact that a shooting occurred at the time and place above mentioned and that Boyd Conyers was suspected of knowing who did same.
 q arrived at Monroe, Ga, on June 5, and stopped at the home of Esther Crews, colored. 1 met Boyd Conyers, who is known as Buddie Conyers, on the morning of June 6, but had very little conversation with him, but was intro- duced to him as an old soldier. On the morning of June s, between and o'clock, I met Conyers about halfway between the station house and Main street. We talked some twenty or twen- ty-five minutes l broached the Browns vile case, and mentioned the fact that the soldiers had shown their good sense by keeping their mouths while at Wash ipgton. l then asked him what the mo- tive was for the shooting. He told me that the crackers at Brownsville had made threats that they would have no negro soldiers-at Brownsville, and the sol eiers had made it up in their minds that if they bothered them tfat they would go in and clean up the ground. He also said that they mentioned this to Sergeant Reid, who was commander of the guards, and that Reid said, All that I have to say is to take care of yourself and the boys when you go down there.' s. H. Parker, whose home is at Charleston, s. C., was present and heard the same conv ersation.
 About then a gentleman called Con- yers to come and clean some clothes, and Conyers left, and nothing further was said about the matter at this time. I was with Conyers nearly every day, and went to Gainesville, Ga on an ex- cursion with him on the 18th of June. I did not mention the Brownsville mat

 T had several interviews at Monroe with Boyd Conyers, ex-private of Com pany B, Twenty-ffth infantry, one of the guard on the night of the Brownsville raid and found that William Lawson's statements regarding Conyers were sub stantially and essentially correct. I per- sonally obtained from Conyers further information detailing how the cartridges used in the raid were surreptitiously and illegally obtained and distributed, how the principal raiders proceeded, when and by whom the gun racks in Company B were unlawfully and secretly opened for the purpose of the raid, how the raiders were protected during and sub sequent to the raid, and given oppor- tunity to clean their guns, and, in par ticular was furnished by Conyers with
