THE STATE EXPENDITURE.

Daring the past fiscal year ending
September 80. 1909, Virginia received
from all sources the sum of IS, 536, 4Sl.
o.. The balance lett over from TIT
previous year vas $685., 1885 making
q total on the credit side Of the ledge
of the commonwealth of s6,071, 1874 49,
The disbursements during the year
amounted to s5,795. l91 20. more than
quarter of q million dollars greatel
tbaa the receipts, reducing The baIar &C
in favor of the state by about one-hslf.
The balance on hand of the last Day Of
September, 1909, was s276, SOB 70.
This would seem to indicate that The
Legislature must 90 carefully in its ap.
propriations, for one more such year as
the last would wipo cut the states bal.
ance, and two years would create large
deficit.
These figures are taken from the
annual report of Colonel Morton Msrye,
The state auditor, which was issued
Friday.

Full Attendance Marked Opening o
the Council at FaribauIt, Min
nesota, This Morning.
(Herald Specially

Faribault Mimi, May 26.-Indica-
tions are that the diocesan council
which convened here today will take
no action looking to the division of
the Episcopal diocese of Minnesota
into two dioceses nor for the creation
of bishop coadjutor to assist Bishop
Edsall, though both proposals will be
extensively discussed. The expense
attendant upon the proposed changes
is urged as the principal reason why
they should not be made at the pres
ent time
A full attendance of delegates mark
ed the opening of the council session
this morning Included among those
present were many persons of promi-
nence, both clergy and laymen. The
opening sermon was preached by the
Rev. George C. Tanner, D. D., who
was present at the first council at
which Bishop Whipple presided fifty
years ago. This afternoon, after the
work of organization had been COM
pleted, Bishop Edsall delivered his an
nual address. The council will re-
main in session several days.

Chicago, ILL.,, May 26.-Fernando
Jones, one of the oldest and most re,
spected citizens of Chicago, celebrat,
ed his eighty-ninth birthday today
with reunion and reception held in
Memorial Hall under the auspices of
Chicago Pioneers Sons and Daugh-

TRY INDIAN FOR MURDER
Case of William Barley Will Go to
Trial at Portland Tomorrow-A
Fiendish Murder.
(Herald Specially

Portland, Ore, May 26-The case
of William Barley, a Umatilla Indian
charged with the murder of Sid O.
Jacobs, white man, will be called
for trial in the federal court tomor,
row The killing of Jacobs was one
of the most fiendish murders in the
criminal annals of Oregon.
Trouble between Barley and JAG
obs originated several years ago
when Barley lost a valuable horse
and accused Jacobs of stealing the
animal Later the friendly relations
between the two men we're apparently
resumed, though subsequent develop
ments showed that the Indian was
merely biding his time to become re-
venged.
On the day of the alleged murder
Barley approached Jacobs with the
request that he accompany him to the
top of a distant hill, where he be-
lieved he had made discovery that
would be OF value to both OF them.
Before starting on the walk the In
dian is said to have provided himself
with revolver and a scalping knife,
and to have confided to an old Indian
woman that Jacobs would never come
back alive.
When Barley returned alone from
the hill climb he is said to have con-
fided to the old Indian woman how
he had killed Jacobs. According to
the story, when the two had reached
the top of the hill, Barley fell back
a few steps, took careful aim and
shot Jacobs in the back of the head
Then he rushed forward with his
scalping knife, according to his story,
cut his victims throat and did a de-
mon dance around the PROSTATE form.

FOUR A PUZZLE
Swiss Police Believe Men Belong to
Gang of SwindIers.

Geneva, May 2G.-Four men who
have been in custody here for sew
eral weeks are a sore puzzle to the
Swiss police, The parties, who are
either Americans or English, are sus-
pected of belonging to a gang of in
ternational swindlers, and the police
have communicated with New York,
London and other cities, to discover
if anything is known there about
them. The only charge made so far
is that they attempted to defraud To-
cal tradesmen. When arrested they
had much false and valuable jewelry
and precious stones. No papers were
found on them, they carried no bag
gage, and the makers names had been
carefully removed from their hats
and clothing so that no clue might
lead to their Identification Another
curious phase of the case is that the
men dsclaimed any acquaintance
with each other, though all arrived in
Geneva at the same time and put up
at the same hotel.

Whoopina COUGH.

This is a more dangerous disease
than is generally presumed. 1t will
be a surprise to many to learn that
more deaths result from it than from
scarlet fever. Pneumonia often re-
suits from it. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy has been used in many cpl
denies of whooping cough and al
ways with the best results. Delbert
McKeig of Harlan, Iowa, says of it.:
My boy took whooping cough when
nine months old. He had it in the
winter. / got bottle of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy, which proved
good. l cannot recommend it too
highly" For sale by Bratton Drug
