SA in cash from Mrs Sarah Gates.
ne. her-in-law of Congressman Boutell.
is charged in an indictment returned
by the grand jury today against Clar-
ence Minor, formerly butler at the
Gates home.
The authorities aIlege that when
Minor was arrested he admitted taking
the money and bonds. and confessed to
having spent the money and made away
with the bonds by throwing them into
the Schuykill river.
a true bill was also found against
William Cant. charging him with
larceny from the United States. 1t is
alleged that Cant, who was a janitor
at She National Guard Armory, broke
open a locker in the qUartermaster's de-
rartment and took twenty-nine army
blankets. fifty army shirts. and forty
five pairs of army shoes. a portion Of
which were recovered later.

ATTACK
ON BONDING TRUST
Treasury Officials Draw Up
Bill to Have Government
Furnish Surety.

Treasury officials charge that there
is a trust in surety companies and a
plan has been perfected by Treasurer
Treat and others looking to the Govern
ment organizing a bonding fund Of its
own.
A bill is being prepared and will be
sent to Chairman Tawney, of the House
Appropriations Committee. accompanied
by letter which will charge that ex-
tortion Is being practiced by the surety
companies 1t is believed by the Trea-
Sury officials that such measure will
be passed without delay, in view of the
amendment just incorporated in the
Census bill directing supeTintendents
not TO pay more for bonds than the rate
in force January l.
Federal employees furnish 100000 bonds
yearly, with penalties ageregating $50
100000. Up to January 1, the rate OF
surety companies was 81 per thousand.
Since that date. the rate has been in
creased, to from 81 to $3.50 per thousand.
The plan as perfected provides for the
creation of a bonding fund from the
premium being paid to bonding com
panies.
The Treasury experts declare that less
than % per cent of the total premiums
paid bonding companies is required to
pay losses. Under this arrangement
the Government could bond its ofhCi5lS
at 25 cents thousand.
Treasurer Treat says there are now
over 10000 officers and agents of surety
companies throughout the country, and
that they have shown such powerful
political influence as to have defeated
attempts in Congress to supervise their
operations

CIVIL SERVICE HARD
HIT BY M'CUMBER
Senator Defends His Amend
ment to Compel Years
Residence.

When The conference report OF the
census bill was called up in the Senate
this afternoon, Senator McCumber of
North Dakota took the floor and made
a strong protest against the action of
the conferees in cutting out Of the bill
his amendment TO require that all appli-
cants for positions under the civil serv-
ice must have had actual residence of
year in the State or Territory 10 which
they desire to be accredited.
McCumber bitterly denounced the
system now In practice. He denied
that the residents of Washin gtOn were
better qu;Sifled than the residents Of
the various States to hold Government
positions. and declared that if the
ought to be enforced and the appor-
tionment requirements ;ydhered to.
The senator asserted that 80 per
cent Of the Government employees
We're residents of the District. where
as 1T might have only 2 per cent If
forced.
He amused the Senate by telling Of the
situation in one section Of the Bureau
of Manufactures, where there are ninc
persons All. he said. are women. One
is the wife TO the secretary of a men,
ber OF Congress: two are wives of War
Department officials; one Is the wife
of prominent Treasury official; one is
the wife OF travelling man; one mar
ried a young Dcy, and now is taking
care of him, three are widows who
have to take care of themselves
promotions seem to be given" he
continued, Ito women who have hus-
bands in other departments"
The discussion of the conference re-
port followed Senator McCumber's
speech. Senators Lodge, Carter Hale.
Bailey, La Toilette, and Newlands took
part in it Lodge admitted that many
of the States were deprived Of their
quota Of employees, and said that the
-ivil Service Commission ought to cor
- CT the grave abuses that existed IL il
lad the power. He thought legislation
wasN necessary, however.
Senator Hale. Senator La FoIette, and
Senator Bailey upheld the conference
report, and thought the Senate ought
not to delay the enactment of census
bin by insisting on its amendment
NewlanGs objected because the Sen
ate conferees had receded on the amend
ment regarding a new building and site
for the Census Office. He thought the
present site was not good one to build
on. and pointed out that in the heated
term many people were prostrated from
the heat while working in the building
and had to be removed.

PEOPLE OF The WEST
FLOCKED TO SEE COOPER
Sufferers From all Sorts of Ills Eager to Learn
About His Theory and Medicine.

despite the fact that I was using va
rious remedies that had been recon-
mended to me.
One evening I happened to notice in
the Topeka papers an article about the
preparations Mr.. Cooper was introduc-
Ing in that city, and although I was
skeptical Of results, decided TO give
them a trial
Il went 70 Mr.. Cooper's headquarters
and bought a bottle of the New Discov-
cry medicine 1t seemed to help me
from the start, and within a week I
was feeling like a different man. Its
continued use has relieved me Of rheu-
matism and my sleep is now sound and
restful. 1 am feeling better in every
way
MY wife also used the New Discovery
with very beneficial results FOR kidney
trouble and nervousness. Frequently
while handling the dishes her arm would
give jerk and the dishes would fall 10
the floor and break. She could not rest
well at night She had severe pains
across her back and felt weak and ex-
bausted all the time.
After taking Cooper's New Discov-
cry a short time her nerves were won
derfully quieted and strengthened, the
pain in her back subsided. sne slept
more soundly and felt much improved
in every way The New Discovery did
her more good than any medicine she
had ever taken.
"Cooper's New Discovery IS the first
medicine have ever used that has done
exactly as claimed. and I can honestly
recommend il to others"
Cooper's New Discovery is on sale by
all druggists everywhere. a sample
bottle mailed free upon request by ad-
dressing The Cooper Medicine Company.

CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY
New Discovery zas Revolutionized thu
Treatment Of skin Diseases

Nothing in the history Of medicine has
ever approached the success Of the mar
velous skin remedy known as poslam,
which, II Is safe 10 say has cured more
cases of eczema and skin diseases than
any remedy ever offered for these ills.
The success of poslam is not at all
surprising when IL isH considered that
even a very small quantity applied 10
the skin stops itching Immediately and
cures chronic cases in two weeks. The
very worst cases Of eczema, as well
as acne. herpes. tetter, piles, salt rEsun,
rash. crusted humors. scaly SCALP and
every form OF itch. yield to II readily
Blemishes such as pimples. red noses.
muddy and infiamed skin disappear al
most Immediately when poslam Is ap-
piled, the complexion being cleared over
night.
Every druggist keeps both the 5e-cent
size (tor minor troubles) and the s. jar,
and either of these may be obtained IN
Washington at Ograms, O'Donnelfs-
the Peoples Drug Store. Afhecks, as
well as other reliable drug stores.
But no one is even asked TO purchase
poslam without first obtaining an ex-
perimental package which will be sent

JUDGE TO PREPARE
LIST OF VENIRE MEN
Presiding Justice in Night
Rider Trials Springs a
Surprise.

WAVERLY, Tenn, April 20.-The Sec
ond days session of the circuit court
for the trial of the night rider cases
had scarcely commenced when counsel
for the defendants renewed the motion
which had been overruled by Judge
Cook yesterday to qyash the yenire
summoned for the day
The judge thereupon sprung a great
surprise by granting the motion pro-
vided an agreement was reached by the
attorneys for the State and the defense
and informing Attorney General Bow
man that he would like to hear arglI-
ments as to the question Of the tefen-
dants being deprived of their rights TO
plead on a second trial in the event a
mistrial was ordered
Judge John T. Allen for the defense
declined to consent and court took a
recess of one hour TO enable counsel TO
confer and prepare for argument II
they so desired. The renewal of the
motion today was expected but the de-
surprise
Fully half Of the 200 taIesmen ordered
TO report today were absent when court
was called 10 order. having been DELAYED
p9y the terrific storm. Counsel for the
defendants on their motion specifically
waved the fact that the full panel of
522 names had not been presented to
them at one time and alleged that the
venire had been improperly and Illegal
ly selected and summoned. and. as
stated in the motion set out on the OPEN
ing day Of the trial
Judge Cook upon reconvening of court
after the recess ann )unced his decision
sustaining the motion and said he would
himself prepare the list OF 522 names
and, IL possible, have Sheriff Obarr sum-
mon them for next Monday, until which

During a recent tour in the West L.
T. Cooper made visits Of severaI weeks
in various cities In Kansas, where tnons'
ands of people talked with him ana pur-
chased his medicine.
His success was so phenomenal as 70
cause universal comment both py the
nubIic and the press. There must be a
reason for this. Here Is the reason CIV
en- in his own words by Mr. cooper
when interviewed on the subject. He
said:
.sThe Immense numbers Of people who
are calling on me here in the West Is
not unusual. I have had the same ex-
nerience for the past two years wher-
aver have gone. The reason is sim
ple one. 1t is because my medicine puts
the stomach into good condition This
does not sound unusual. but II is in
fact the key to health. The stomach is
the very foundation ot life. I attribute
70 per cent of all sickness directly TO
the stomach.
Neither animals nor men can re-
main well with a poor digestive ap-
paratus. Few can be sick with di-
pestion in perfect condition. AS mat
ter Of fact, most men and women today
are half sick. It Is because too much
food and TOO little exercise have grad
uaIly forced the stomach into half
sick condition Ny medicine gets the
stomach back where Il was, and that is
all that is necessary"
Among Kansas people who are stanch
believers in Mr.. Cooper's theory IS Mr..
J. l.. Hayslip, residing at 202 Kansas
avenue Oakland, Kan He says:
For some time have been a sufferer
from rheumatism. 1t finally became so
bad that I could not sleep at night,
and 7 was getting worse every day,
