REGISTRATION FEE
RAISES NOV. i
An Increase From Eight to Ten Cents
But Insurance Is Increased
Just Double.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-Postmas-
ter General Hitchcock signed an order
increasing the fee for the registration
of mail from to 10 cents, to take eff
feet November 1,1909. This action
followed the recommendation of the
committee now investigating the
registry service, and is in accord with
the views of the registry experts
recently in conference on the subject
at Washington.
The order also increases the maxi
mum indemnity paid to the owner Of
lost Or rified registered letter from
S25 to $50, thus doubling the depart
ment's liability for valuable articles
intrusted to its registry branch.
The changes ordered constitute the
first move toward making the postal
service self-sustaining The registry
system Is reported to be conducted at
loss, and to make it pay it's way
radical measures are necessary.
Hence the committee Investigating the
subject has proposed some new feat.
ures, which are now being considered
by the postmaster general Those
features include the establishment of
a parcel registration system, with a s.
cent fee, and small indemnity, and a
preferred class of registered matter OF
high value with increases in the fee
and indemnity up to 20 cents and $100
the limit fixed by law.

originating in the hardware store was
another big fire at the home of F.
Bletcher, owner of music store in
Nauyoo. His house is situated about
eight blocks from the hardware store
and is two story frame. Whether
the fire started in the same manner is
unknown, or by spark from the big
blaze, or was struck by lightning is
still a mystery, but the home was COM
pletely destroyed. $500 insurance was
carried on the musical instruments,
and $500 on the furniture in the home.
The owner is Chicago man, who car
ried $1,000 on the building.
The part Of Nauvoo which is most
affected by the fire includes the dis
trict first settled by the Mormons and
where they made their homes many
years ago. Many of the houses de-
stroyed are remnants of those former
days and several Of the buildings were
very old
The fire was one Of the worst which
has occurred in Nauvoo for some time
and swept destruction before it at
every hand Had not number of the
nearby buildings been of brick the
confiagration would have been much
worse.

GRAY HAIRS BANIsHED.

The old idea of using sage for dark
ening the hair is again coming i'll
vogue. Our grandmothers used to have
dark, glossy hair at the age of seventy
five, while our mothers have white
hair before they are fifty Our grand
mothers used to make a sage tea"
and apply it to their hair. The tea
made their hair soft and glossy and
gradually restored the natural color
One objection to using such prepar
alton was the trouble of making it, es-
pecially as 1t had to be made every
two or three days on account of it
souring quickly This objection has
been overcome, and by asking almost
any first class druggist for Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur the public can get
superior preparation of sage. with the
admiXture of sulphur, another valuable
remedy for hair and scalp troubles.
Daily use of this preparation will not
only quickly restore the color of the
hair but will also stop the hair from
falling out and make it grow. 1t Is
sold by all druggists for soc and $100
bottle, or is sent direct by the Wyeth
Chemical Company, "A Cortlandt ST.,
New York City, upon receipt CT price.
For sale and recommended by McGrath
Bros, Keokuk.

SUTTON'S BODY
WAS UNEARTHED
No Bones Broken and Mothers Con-
tention Of Murder Seems to
Have Been Wrong.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-When
the body of Lieut.. James N. Sutton,
Jr, the marine officer who met death
two years ago at Annapolis, was ex-
humed at Arlington cemetery it was
disclosed that 10 bones were broken,
although a confusion was found over
the right eye.
1t has been Mrs Sutton's contention
that her sons arm was broken in the
fight which preceded his death and
that the shot which ended his life
could not have been self-inflicted. DR..
George Tully Vaughan, who repre-
sented Mrs. Sutton at the autopsy,
said tonight that the bullet which
caused death was three inches above
the right ear and clean cut. There
was no indication that the hair and
scalp had been burned by powder.
Surgeon Spear of the navy depart
ment, declined to make a statement
saying he would make report direct
to the navy department.
Attorney van Dyke, associate coun-
sci of Mrs. Sutton, said there was no
evidence that the siot had been fired
at least five feet from the officers
head, and the wound showed the phys
ical impcssibility for Sutton to have
fired the shot.
Present at tn grave when tae body
was disinterred we're Mrs. Sutton,
friends, attorneys. and surgeons. Mrs.
Sutton was the first person to look
upon the face of ner dead son when
the casket was opened.

A Narrow Escape.

The fire originated supposedly from
lightning during the storm about 1880
o'clock when the merchandise store
owned by A. J. Richtmann, situated on
Main street about two and a half
blocks from the river, became ablaze.
Mr. Richtman and travelling sales
man, Walter Schenck, representing
the Drake Hardware Company of Bur
lington. had been in the store until
about II o'clock In the evening and up
on invitation of the frmer Mr.. Schenk
had retired to the second floor for the
night, the two gentlemen occupying
separate rooms. 1t was only after
the fire had gained considerable head
way that it was discovered and Mr..
Schenck had rarely time to escape
from his room in time to save his life.
He lost his clothes and yaluables, in
Guiding about s25 in currency and a
valuable gold watch.
