complices in the murders. Mariette flew
into towering rage. and for time

she had not been questioned on that

When court convened Mariette forced
her way into the courtroom and made
desperate attempt TO reach the judges
bench. Amid much excitement she was
seized by the police and unceremoniously
dragged out Subsequently both the

SYSTEM OF SIGNALLING
Warned Sugar Trusts Employees OF
Visits of Government Agents

New York, Dec. 7.-Electric flash
light signals were used on the Will
liamsburg piers of the Havemeyer and
Elder Sugar Refining company to
warn employees of the approach of
government agents, according to two
witnesses who testified in the trial in
the United States circuit court of the
six sugar company employees charged
with conspiracy.
The men who declared on the stand
that they had noticed an elaborate
system of signalling in use in the scale
houses are Frederick b. Saunders and
John Rochefort, both of whom were
employed as laborers.
Immediately after the flashing of the
light in the scale houses the scales
you'd be balanced, asserted Saun-
iers, and few minutes later a gov
eminent agent would appear.
The introduction of this testimony
was surprise to the defense and 1t
produced a sensation in the court
room.

Washington, Dec. Announce
ment was made at the state depart
ment of the appointment of William
J. Calhoun of Chicago as minister to
China. Calhoun has accepted the
appointment and the Chinese govern
ment has indicated it's pleasure in re-
ceiving him.
Calhoun's most conspicuous service
to the United States was in connection
with the elimination of troubles in
Venezuela. He acted as commissioner
ia the adjustment of difficulties with
President Castro. This service es-
tablished reputation for Calhoun
with the state department as a diplo-
mat of tact and patience.
Calhoun was born in Pittsburg and
is just past 81 years old. He is now
a member of the firm of Calhoun, Ly-

Philadelphia, Dec. 6.-Despairing
of quickly freeing the auxiliary cruis-
er Prairie from the mud flats at Pea
Patch island in the Delaware river,
where she has stuck fast since last
Thursday, the government had the
marines and stores aboard the strand
ed cruiser removed to the auxiliary
cruiser Dixie. It is probable that the
latter vessel will get under way to-
day and proceed to Colon.
Two more vain attempts were made
Sunday to free the Prairie Lighters
had removed more than 500 tons of
coal and all of the 80, 600 rounds of
ammunition when half a dozen tugs
strained and pulled in an effort to get
the Prairie into deep water at high
tide. The warship did not bulge and
when the tide began to recede the
work of removing the 500 marines to
the Dixie was begun.

Left Car of Hay Standing Where

Cherry, Ills, Dec. 6.-Testimony
introduced at the coroner's inquest on
the St. Paul mine horror tended to
show that the fire was started by Mat
Francisco, an inexperienced boy, who
was working in the mine in alleged
violation of the child labor law.
Francisco worked under Rosenjack,
the eager who disappeared the day fol-
lowing the accident, the boys duty
being to push the empty cars from the
main shaft in the second vein over to
the cage running to the third vein.
He testified he had pushed the load
ed car of hay that caught fire over to
the elevator shaft leading to the third
vein and left it standing close to the
blazing torch, which ignited It. He
said his superiors gave him no in
structions as to what he should do
with the hay.

BUT ONE CHANCE LEFT
Morse's Appeal For Writ of certiorari
From Supreme Court Is Refused

Washington, Dec. THE supreme
court of the United States denied the
petition of Charles w. Morse, con-
victed of violating the federal banking
law, for a writ of certiorari. The re-
suit of the decision is to leave in eff
feet against Morse the sentence of fif-
teen years Imprisonment.
The banker now has but one chance
left for escaping from the laws PEN
atty. His counsel last month applied
for permission from the federal cir
cult court to seek, a rehearing in the
trial court on the ground that certain
members of the jury were subject to
alcoholism, and that they were sub
jected to undue influence on the part
of their attendants. This was granted
by Judge Holt, who heard the case.

Are Microbes
in Your Scalp :?
1t Has Been Proved that Microbes
Cause Badness.

Professor Unna Of Hamburg.
Germany, and DR.. Sabourand, the
leading French dermatologist. dis
covered that a microbe causes bald
ness. Their theory has time and
again been amply verified through
research experiments carried on
under the observation of eminent
scientists. This microbe lodges in
the Sebur, which is the natural
hair oil, and when 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 growth
of hair being revived.
Dandruff is a contagious dis
ease, which is largely due to a de-
structive microbe, which when left
to pursue its course causes itching
scalp, falling hair and badness.
Dandruff is caused by the microbe
affecting the glands which produce
the sebaceous matter, which latter
then unnaturally dries up and scales
off.
We have a remedy which will,
we honestly believe, remove dan
druff, eXterminate the micrObe, pro-
mote good circulation in the scalp
and around the hair roots, tighten
and revitalize the hair roots and
overcome badness, so long as there
is any life in the hair roots.
We back up this statement with
our own personal guarantee that
this remedy called RexalI 1913" Hair
Tonic will be supplied free of all
cost to the user if it fails to do as we
state.
1t will frequently restore gray
and faded hair to its original color,
providing 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 throughout the
hair cells.
Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic is en-
tirely free from grease or sediment,
is exceedingly pleasant to use and
will not gum the hair or permanently
soil the clothing or pillows.
We exact no obligations or prom
ises-we simply ask you to give it a
thorough trial and if not satisfied
tell us and we will refund the money
you paid us for it. Two sizes,
prices so cents and 81 90. Remem-

CONTEMPT CASE UP
TO SUPREME COURT
Still a Chance For GOmperS,
Mitchell and Morrison

Washington, Dec. THE supreme
court of the United States granted the
petition for a writ of certiorari in the
contempt cases of Samuel Gompers,
Frank Morrison and John Mitchell i,
officers of the American Federation
of Labor. The effect of the decision
will be to bring the entire record in
the Bucks Stove and Range case
against these men to the supreme
court for review.
The contempt case against these
men grew out of proceeding in the
local courts of the District of Column
bia to prohibit the Federation from
boycotting the Bucks Stove and Range
company of st. Louis. Pending the
decision of that case an its merits the
supreme court Of the district issued
a temporary injunction against the
publication of the name of the stove
company in the 1--WE don't patronize"
list of the Federation. This decision
was freely commented upon in the
Federation's organ and the contempt
proceeding was based upon this COM
ment.
After extended hearings the three
men were sentenced to Imprisonment
by Justice Wright and upon appeal
the district court of appeals affirmed
the decision. The supreme court will
review the entire case as thus made

NO CLUE TO ROBBERS
Seven Crooks Get Away After Clean.
ing Out Postoffice Safe.

Athol, Mass, Dec. 6.-The police
are without clue today to the identity
or whereabouts of the seven robbers
who wrecked and looted the postohice
safe of $4,000 in stamps and $3.50 in
cash after having put the night po-
liceman in a cell in the lookup while
the safe was being cracked.
Working on the theory that the
seven men fled in an automobile, the
police are busy trying to trace the
route of the machine through nearby
towns. The robbery was just before
2 o'clock, and at $3.50 a big machine
was seen going through South Athol,
and was reported in North Dana be-
fore O'Clock. This is the only Incl
dent approaching a clue which the po-
lice have.
