PETrIsoNE ACQUITTED
Western Miners Leader Not guilty Of
Stsunenberg Murder.

Western Miners Leader Not guilty Of
Stsunenberg Murder.
Boise. Idaho, Jan. 6.-An end Of the
prosecution of the men charged with
the murder of former Governor Frank
Steunenberg, except the cases of
Harry Orchard and Jack SimDkins,
came with the acquittal of George A.
Pettibone and the discharge Of
Charles H. Moyer, president Of the
Western Federation of Miners, both
charged with conspiring with William
D. Haywood to murder Steunenberg.
Meyer will return with Pettibone in a
few days to Denver. Haywood was ac-
quilted last summer, and Meyer will
not be tried. Only two men on the Pet
tibone jury voted for conviction.
The case of Orchard, confessed as
sassin of Steunenberg, and chief wit
ness against Meyer, Haywood and Pet
tibone, is in the hands of Prosecuting
Attorney Vanduyn. of Canyon county,
Idaho. No statement as to the future
procedure in the case has been made,
but it will be called during the next
term of court at Caldwell when it will
probably be finally disposed of. Simp'
kins is still a fugitive.

LIABILITY ACT VOID
Railroads Not Responsible For NeeIi-
qence of Employees.

Railroads Not Responsible For NesIi-
gence of Employees.
Washington, Jan I'm an opinion
by Justice White the supreme court OF
the United States held to be unconsti-
tutional "the employers liability law,
which makes railroads and other COM
mon carriers responsible to employees
in accidents due to the negligence Of
fellow servants or to ineffective appli-
ances.
The decision of the lower courts was
affirmed.
There were two cases before the
court, one of them that of the e6min-
istratrix Of a locomotive fireman killed
on the Illinois Central road near Mem
phis, Tenn, and the other that of the
Administrative of a fireman killed on
the Southern Pacific road in Nevada.
The railroads fought both cases in
the trial courts, and in each case OBJ
tained a verdict on the ground of the
unconstitutionality of the law.

CataIepsy.

She sank steadily and two days later

relatives were summoned While this
was in progress Mrs. Carrothers again
came back to life, and has been in

 News reached the city yesterday morning of quite distressing misfor- tune which happened to MT. Frisk Woltl and family. Mir. WolG is in the employ of the Beck Company this year and resided in the Hughes old home stead at Linden. About II o'clock Wednesday night the family were awakened by some of the negroes on the place who gave the alarm of fire, and they barely had time to save them selves, and get out of the house before 1t fell in. The fire is thought to have originated from defective Aue. or some way in the ceiling from the kitchen stove, and the house and con tents were a total loss, as they had no time to save scarcely anything. MT. Wolff had S5OO insurance on the household goods, etc, but there was no insurance on the house, which be- longed to Mrs. W. R. Taylor. They have the kindly sympathy of The Times and their many friends in this great misfortune. The insurance will help MT. and Mrs. Wolff to refurnjsb a home, but money cannot buy the many little keepSakes and prized accumula- tions of years which have gone forever.

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP
Many Explanations of Badness Have Been Advanced. The Most Cor
 rect is That of Microbes.

The term 'microbe" refers to par asltie plant or fungi. also called bac- | teria. A microbe is SO small that it can only be detected by the aid of a microscope. Some microbes are harm less, while others produce various dis eases and derive their title through the form oftheir growth or because of the diseases they create, which dis eases are infectious or contagious.
 Prof. Unna, of Hamburg, Germany. and Dr Sabourand, the leading der matologist of France, discovered that microbe caused badness, and their theory has time and again been amply verified through research experiments carried on through the observation of eminent scientists. This microbe lodges in the Sebum, which k the natural hair oil, and if permitted to flourish it destroys the hair follicles, and in time the pores entirely close and the scalp gradually takes on a shiny appearance. When this hap pens there is no hope of the hair growth being revived.
 Dandrutf is a contagious disease which a microbe causes, and later produces itching scalp, falling hair and badness. Dandruff is caused by the microbe dseasing the sebaceous matter which dries up and scales off. Sometimes the cuticle surrounding the hair allows the natural oil of the hair to force its way between the flakes of scarf skin direct to the hair, and the microbe being between the flakes force them apart and they scale off as dandruff
 We have remedy which posi- lively will remove dandruff, exterminate the microbe, promote good circulation in the scalp, tighten and revitalize the hair roots, grow hair and cure bald ness. We back up this statement on our own personal guarantee that this remedy, which is called Rexall "93" Hair Tonic, will be supplied free of all cost to the user if it fails to do as we promise. 1t will also restore gray and faded hair to its original rich glossy color, if loss of color has been caused by disease, yet it is in no sense a dye. Rexall "93' Hair Tonic accomplishes these results by making every hair root, follicle and pigment gland strong and active, and by stimulating a natural flow of coloring pigment into the hair cells.
 Rexall "93'' Hair Tonic is entirely free from grease or sediment, is ex- ceedingly pleasant to use, and will not gum the hair nor soil the clothing or pillows.
 We want everyone troubled with hair or scalp ailments, even though they are bald in spots. to try Rexall ''93' Hair Tonic on our guarantee. We exact no obligation or promises. and simply ask you to give it a thorough trial, and if not satisfied tell us and we will refund the money paid us. The Enterprise Drug Store, North Front Street.
