DEEP SEATED COUGH
CURED IN ) HOURS
New HOme-Made Syrup
(Cnf TofS n,,f
From Boston Press

Progress in medical compounds
never ceases, and now IL is stated by
a prominent medical man that any
deep seated cough or cold on the lungs
can be actually cured in five hours by
the clock. Opium and morphine have
been resorted to in the past, as relief
measures. But now it is learned that
the system must be treated to rid 10
of Inflammation and congestion. A
tonic laxative cough syrup does the
work so quickly and thoroughly as to
be almost magical. What heretofore
has taken weeks to cure can be ac-
complished in hours. Get this formula
filled or mix it at home and always
keep it on hand: One-half ounce fluid
wild cherry bark. one ounce compound
essence cardiOl and three ounces syrup
white pine compound. Shake the bot.
tie and take twenty drops every half
hour for four hours. Then take one.
half to one teaspoonful three or four
times a day until the system Is purl-
fed and toned up. Give children less
according TO age. One filing will
usually cure a whole family, as ths
dose is small

SMELL PERJURY CASE
CONTINUED TO APRIL 10
Preliminary Hearing of Alleged
Untruthful Witness Ends

The preliminary hearing OF Charles
P. Smell on seven counts of perjury. al
legged TO have been committed at tho
trial of DR.. E. B. Perrin and John F.
Benson, was concluded before Police
Judge Shortall yesterday and a con-
tinuance was ordered till April 10.
when motion 70 dismiss will be made
and argued by Attorney Louis p.
Boardman for the defense.
The witnesses examined yesterday
were United States District Attorney
Robert T. Devlin and his assistant.
George Clark. as to the disputed map.
They knew very little about it.
Oscar W. Lange. chief of the Held
division. refused to testify. claiming
that certain matters in connection
with the Perrin and Benson case were
being investigated by the government
and he could not be asked to disclose
the secrets of the government He
was given the opportunity to communi-
cate with his superiors before any
action was taken.

which has occupied several afternoons,

neys Earl Rogers, Charles Peery and
Frank c. Drew. Corbin and l-c-
Kinley by Attorney Hume and
ney Lewis f. Byington was also
present, but he was not put on rec
ord as attorney for any of the de-
PENDANTS. Attorney .Peery was counsel
for the men who trailed w. J. Burns.
and at that time speculation was rife
as to who had employed him, but his
appearance yesterday. in conjunction
with Earl Rogers and Drew demon
strated the fact that his employer was
Patrick Calhoun.
Just before the cases were called
Judge Deasy was served with two
writs of prohibition issued by Judge
Van Nostrand, restraining him from
breaking the seals and opening the
packages containing the papers seized
under the search warrants which were
made returnable Friday morning.
CASES ARE CALLED
When the cases were called Attor-
ney Peery answered ready for Van
Wormer. but Attorney Hume asked for
continuance for a week for Corbin
and Mckinley. and at the same time
asked that Corbin's bail be reduced to
$500, as his detention in prison was
working hardship upon his wife and
family. The judge agreed to reduce
the bail as requested, and made the
order.
Assistant District Attorney Ward
said that if the various counsel would
agree upon a date they would be able
to proceed in a satisfactory way He
had no opportunity TO examine the
writs of prohibition, but if counsel in
sisted upon proceeding he would be
ready in an hour.
THE writs,' said the Judge, relate
to the property taken under the search
warrants, and restrain the court from
breaking the seals of the packages.
Are these papers necessary in these
cases?"
Ward replied that they were. but he
had had no opportunity TO examine the
writs.
Rogers asked to see the writs and
said it was evident the court could not
open the packages and there was no
use in forcing a hearing of the cases.
HAMLIN'S BAIL REDUCED
The Judge said he would not under
take to break open the packages and
would continue all the cases until Sa t :
urday morning at IL o'clock to be set,
as the preliminary hearing on the
writs was set for Friday morning He
said he' had been asked to reduce
Hamlin's bail, and with the consent of
the district attorney had reduced it to
$500 cash, or $4,000 bonds
Peery started to argue that the Van
Wormer complaint was defective, as
what it alleged did not constitute a
public offense. but>stopped when Ward
said he would make the complaint ex-
plicit enough before Saturday.
In the morning the cases of William
NJ. Abbott and Attorney Frank Muir
ply were called and continued until
Saturday to be set.
Corbin was released yesterday after
noon on $500 cash bail.

LIEUTENANT kINZIE is
SAVED BY LOYAL LEGION
Army Officer Permitted to Re-
sign From the Service

That Lieutenant Hunter Kinzie. II
s A, was not dismissed from the army
but allowed TO resign, is due to the eff
forts of the Loyal Legion.
Kinzie was tried before a court mar
tial at the Presidio of Monterey for
cheating in his examination papers for
his promotion to captaincy.
At the conclusion of the case the
findings of the court We're sent fo
Washington for the final decision.
In the meantime the Loyal Legion
got busily to work to save young Kin
zie from disgrace
Kfnzie's father was the late Major
John Kinzie, Z. $. A.. who was sta
toned at the Presidio for several wears
recently. and who was prominent in
the Loyal Legion and very popuIar
with the citizens of this city II was
on this account that the Loyal Legion
interviewed. The circumstance of an
officer being allowed to resign from the
army, after he has been through ,
court martial, with his case still pend
ing. is a most unusual one. and has
seldom happened in army circles before.

Duchess Finds Roosevelt
An Interesting American
Ex-President in Naples Talks With Royal
Huntress and Sees Her Trophies

those who had gathered to welcome
him. He talked with Guglielmo Fer
rero, the historian, who recently re-
turned from an extended visit to the
United States. and whom Roosevelt
recognized Immediately
Lunch was served at the hotel, among
those at the table with the former
president being his son. Kermit, Am
bassador Griscom, Consul Crownin-
shield and Mrs. Crowninshield. Lieuten-
ant Commander Logan, John W. Gar
rett. first secretary of the embassy;
Winthrop Chandler, Mrs Garrett and
Miss Cartwright.
Following the lunch Roosevelt pro-
ceeded in motor car with Ambassador
Griscom to Capodimonte to meet the
duke and duchess of Aosta at their
palace, which is the most magnificent
in the NeopoIitan province.
Roosevelt was welcomed at the pal
ace entrance and the duke received
him in private. the two conversing at
great length. The duke expressed the
hope that Roosevelt would meet the
count of Turin. who is now on a shoot
ing expedition in Africa. Later Roose-
velt was presented to the duchess of
Aosta and they conversed for 20 min
utes, their conversation dealing almost
entirely with hunting in Africa, where
the duchess had passed some time. The
room in which the meeting occurred
was resplendent with trophies of the
duchess African expedition. being hung
with elephants tusks. deer antlers and
the skins of tigers and lions
DUCHESS COMPLIMENTS HIM
The good impression was mutual, as.
while Mr.. Roosevelt was charmed with
the duchess, the latter said he was
the most interesting American she had
ever met-she might almost say the
most interesting man.
The party later went to the museum,
where Roosevelt said he would like
to pass hours. The bronzes particu-
larly attracted him.
The party then made the trip to
Posilipo. They sat in the balcony of
one of the characteristic Neapolitan
restaurants overhanging the sea. the
bay at their feet, always glorious,
whether in calm or storm. Roosevelt
was enchanted. and remarked that he
had not looked upon this scene for %
years. 1t was his wedding trip then,
and he could only wish that Mrs.
Roosevelt might see it as it was today.
Roosevelt desires it to be known
especially in the United States and
England. that he received in Naples
several thousand letters and kilograms,
but having no secretary at his dis
posal it was a physical impossibility
for him to reply.
Returning from Capodimonte the
former president received the civic
authorities at the hotel. After dinner
Roosevelt boarded the Admiral. He
was accompanied by Ambassador Girls
com and Lieutenant Commander Bel
knap, who will go to Messina with him.

NAPLES, April 5.-Theodore Roose-
welt passed several hours in Naples to-
day and was given many evidences of
his personal popularity with the Ital-
ian people.
The steamer Hamburg. on which
Roosevelt was passenger, coming in
soon after noon, was greeted with the
blowing of whistles the f1uttering of
many flags and the playing of bands.
ers, private yachts and craft of all
kinds dressed in bunting and signal
flags, added to the picturesqueness of
the scene, which Roosevelt character
lied as magnificent.
Great crowds. too, waited for his ap-
pearance on the streets. and when he
rode along in an automobile he was
greeted with enthusiasm that aston
ished him. He met various official del
egations at the Hotel Excelsior, scores
of prominent Americans and the repre-
sentatives of other countries, and to
them all he expressed his warmest
thanks for the welcome. He visited
the duke and duchess of Aosta at Capo-
dimonte and later dined in private at
the hotel going on the steamer Ad-
miral about 10 o'clock tonight. The
Admiral, which will convey Roosevelt
to Mombasa, was ready to sail at mid
night. The former presidents quarters
aboard were filled with flowers which
had come from admiring friends. Chief
among these were punches of red, white
and black carnations from the German
emperor and a great cluster of fragrant
blossoms from the empress.
GOOD WISHES FROM WILLIAM
Emperor William showed great in
terest in the former president. The
German consul general, in the name of
the emperor, carried to Roosevelt the
warmest greeting and a letter in which
the emperor expressed the hope that
he would see Roosevelt in Berlin on his
return. In reply to this Roosevelt told
the consul general to inform the en-
peror that he would certainly go to
emperor "how the white man can live
and fight in Africa"
The emperor closed his letter with
'Weidmansheil''-"H to the success
full huntsman."
Roosevelt told the American ambas-
sador that he should assuredly go to
the Vatican to see the pope if he visited
Rome.
When Roosevelt. after landing, ap-
peared in an automobile, a great roar
broke from the crowd and he was
cheered continuously
The ovation moved Roosevelt to re-
mark:
1T seems that the Italians can make
as much noise as the Americans, after
ALL"

ceived with the greatest cordiality
