Hyomei bring the Australian for

No one who lives in or near these
forests suffer from catarrh. No one
who breathes in Hyomei the real for

Superior, Mo-, July 1.-THE death
of Major Tom M. McDougall at Bran
don, VT, July 3, removed one Of the
most distinguished soldiers identi-
fed with General Clusters i'll starred

country in 1876 D. F. Barry, who
was frontier photographer in the
early seventies, and who had a wide
acquaintance with the warriors both
red and white, and Major McDoug-
Jail were great friends and have kept
up a correspondence for years.
II was panied to hear of the death
of Major McDougall," said Mr.. Bar
ry. "He was a splendid soldier. He
was in command Of the B troop of
the Seventh cavalry and in charge
of the pack train in the Custer fight
which took place along the Little
Big Horn river in Montana June Is
and 26, 1876. He was then cap
tain.
Major McDougall never talked
for publication about the part he
took in the Custer fight, but it is a
we'll known fact that had he not
reached Generals Reno and Benteen
just when he did, they soon would
have met the same fate as Custer.
for they were getting short Of am
munition. He reached Reno and
Benteen only after a desperate fight
and a great many of his men were
killed. He fought the Indians from
$50 p. m. of the 25th until p. m.
of the 26th. During the charge on
the Goth General Benteen compli-
mented Captain McDougall for his
gallantry and success in driving the
Indians from his front. General
Benteen wanted him to have medal
of honor, and Captain McDougall
declared that General Benteen's
was ample honor, which
1 consider was a very graceful'thi
for Captain McDougall to say.
Major McDougall had noble
spirit. He quickly forgave the In
dams and once said:
Poor human fellows. They did
what all of US would have done,
so long ago forgave them from the
bottom of my heart
Referring to Rain-In-the-Face,

The dead boy, who was the lille
ultimate child Of a sister of Jacob
Klein, and whose mother died when
the child was only three weeks old.
would in December next have been
seventeen years of age. He has
made his home for the past eight
years with Gottlieb Klein who now
resides in Wishek. but recently prev
iously to, his death lived with Jacob
Klein.
Jacob Klein, who was the first
witness called at the coroner's in
QUESTION, states that himpelf and
wife left home Tuesday morning to
visit his wife's parents George Ack-
erman and wife in that neighbor-
hood and left the boy to distribute
gopher poison. When the returned
home the boy was misEing and
Klein says he thought the boy had
run away over to Fred Reub's
place about three miles distant to
work, and made no search or in
quiry for him. Reub states on the
stand that there was no understand
ing between himself and the boy or
anyone else that the boy was to work
for him and that he did not even ex-
pect the boy to work for him..
On Tuesday the coroner and jury
and states attorney visited the spot
where the boy. was found. Upon
this visit the party found about six
inches from where the head had laid
a small bottle labeled and contain
ing strychnine. The six persons
who were presnt when the body was
picked up testify that the bottle was
not then there.
There are two peculiar and sus-
picious circumstances surrounding
the disappearance and death Of the
boy, the first one being that no re-
port of his disappearance was made
and no search for him had. The
second is the placing by some per-
son or persons of bottle Of poison
at the spot where the remains were
found to make it appear that sui
eide or accidental death had oc-
Cured.
The jury came to the following
verdict:
1--WE, the jury, find that George
Washington Klein came to his death
between two o'clock p. NJ, on Sun
day, June II, 1909, and four o'clock
p. m. on Friday, July 2, 1909, by be-
ing struck blows on the head with a
blunt instrument in the hands of
some person Or persons unknown
The remains were buried at the
Napoleon cemetery on Monday af-
ternoon, and none of his relatives
them to their last rest
ing place although Jacob Klein was
here at the time.
There appears to be no motive
for. the murder of the boy as he was
a peaceable, good-natured and hard
working lad. The wounds found
appear to have been inflicted with
as there we're some small
which appear to have been
pricks made by some such sharp
Charp pointed instrument.
When the coroner's party reached
Klein's place Tuesday morning
Klein stated that he had that morn
ing been down to where the boy was
found and saw a bottle of poison
there Fred Reub and Christian
Digel later stated on he stand that
they had passed the spot on Monday

Pardon Was Legal.

One of the questions over which the
governor has been doing considerable
thinking recently, and into which he
has made considerable inquiry, was the
order of the board of supervisors of
Lawrence county granting a pardon to
DR.. j.. NJ. Kirby, who was convicted of
selling liquor and sentenced to pay a
fine of $500 and to serve ninety days
in the county Jail. He appealed his
case to the supreme court, which passed
ON it during the last term and affirmed
the lower court, and Kirby was re-
manded to Jail to serve put his sentence.
After being confined in jail for a period
of thirty days, the board of supervisors,
exercising the statutory prerogative,
granted the prisoner a discharge on the
ground of physical i%nfirmity.
This prompted the governor to address
an inquiry to the attorney-generaPs de-
partment, and hat official finds that,
according to the law as written, the
order of release was in accordance with
the statute.

Superintendent Williams of the Meth

calling the attention of the public to
the fact that Saturday, Sept. 25, has
been set apart as work day." and in
which he says:
Get as many as you can to promise
to give the proceeds of one days work
to the orphanage. Send out committees
and bands and get men and women and
children to agree to help by giving all
they can make on some one day; mer-
chants, professional men and laboring
people, and get society people, those that
do not work, to give as much as they
spend for one days pleasure"

State Crops Short.

Hon. Leroy T. Taylor, president of
the Board of Penitentiary Trustees,
speaking of the crops on the prison
farms, says:
"After going carefully over the cot
ton crop, I think I am conservative in
estimating the return at 65 per cent. of
an average crop, the shortage being due
to s~harpshooters, boil worms and the
long drouth at the wrong time, and alto
gether it is about the worst crop that I
remember to have seen. There is about
10000 acres now in cotton, and just what
we will reap from this acreage cannot
be estimated now, as deterioration. is still
very marked; but, taking everything
into consideration, we will do fairly well,
and the farms will be self-supporting, as
we are trying to save our bacon, as
well as corn and forage crops"

Nav Have Auto Races.

Secretary Mckay of the state fair has
received inducements from the automo-

special arrangements for auto races dur

are that there will be quite a line of
machines on hand, in addition to those
owned locally. 1t is expected that ex-

Texas state fair at Dallas will bring
their machines direct to Jackson to take
part in the races.
