However, in Collision Of
Auto With Locomotive.

With both feet severed and fac.
ing the prospects of having both

ed the other victims about among
the wreckage of the big SO horse
power touring car occurred at the
intersection of Helena street with
the o. r. C N. tracks early last
evening. The party was returning
from the circus.
Reckless driving by Magruder
and alleged failure on the part Of
the engine men to sound a warn

for the catastrophe. The big ma
chine, belonging to the Dayton
Auto livery. was torn in two, and
Mrs. Magruder was dragged a quar-

SENATORS INSPECT
FLYING MACHINE
(By United Press)

WASHINGTON, June 29.-The
Wright brothers, on account of ad-
verse winds. were unwilling to at
tempt q scheduled flight at Fort
Meyer yesterday afternoon. A large
and curious crowd was present to
witness the test, and deliberation
on the tariff bill was set aside by
the senate to permits its members
to be present at the trial.
General James Allen, the chief
signal officer. was notified by Or
vile Wright that he intended to
make an unofficial trial flight at z
o'clock in, the evening and the field
was cleared of spectators, but ow-
ing to a stiff breeze coming up and
the fact that an untried machine
was to be used, the flight was
abandoned.
Many senators inspected the ma
chine at close quarters. which they
were PRINTED to do by the
Wrights after the flight was called
off.

BIG MAN OF WALL STREET
REACHESSPOKANE TONIGHT

George w. Perkins, the famous
Wall street financier, will arrive
in Spokane at $40 this afternoon
over the Northern Pacific. Mr..
Perkins is making a tour of the
western states in a six car special
train.
Although Mr.. Perkins is osensl-
bly, on tour of inspection merely,
it is believed by those in position
to know that he is really sizing up
the financial and business condi-
ton of the west with reference to
the amount of money that will be
spent and the amount of new work
undertaken by the railroads dur
ing the coming year. Viewed in
this light, Mr.. Perkins visit is of
considerable Importance.
The chamber of commerce at the
noon luncheon today appointed the
following committee to meet Mr..
Perkins and provide for his enter
tainment while in the city: H. L..
Moody, E. T. Conan, d. G. Black,
H. N. Kennedy and r. Insinger.

ESCAPE FROM DEATH
APPEARS MIRACULOUS

markably well, and it is believed
will be able to stand an operation
soon. The fracture to Eshelman's
skull is low behind the left ear, and
chances for his recovery are good.
There is little danger but that the
others will recover readily.
1t was by mere chance that
Eshelman's little boy was spared
from the accident, as his father put
him on a street car because of lack
of room in the auto, on leaving the
circus grounds.
Engineer Buckley and Conductor
Franzell were in charge of the
train, and nearly a half dozen eye
witnesses to the accident who vary
N their stories concerning it, have
been found.

KUHIO WOULD
INVITE SOEONS

A letter from Delegate Kuhio to
Washington was read in the House
of Representatives this morning. The
Delegate wants to repeat the expert
ence of two years ago when a number
of members Of the United States Con-
gress were invited here at Territorial
expense though he thinks more than
$4,000 will be necessary for the visit
of a selected list this year. Last time
reduced railroad rates were had and
Army transport arrangements were
made, but there is nothing to guaran-
tee that such arrangements can be
made now and more money, Kuhio
recommends, better be appropriated.
The visit of the Congressman, he
says, was greatly beneficial and he
hopes the Legislature will authorize
him to invite another party this year.

Tonight at the Opera House, the

presented by local talent. The pro-
gram will consist of a curtain raiser,
"Washington's Birthday" and a
three-act comedy, "Pygmalion and
Galatea,' one of the most popular Of
the Greek plays.
Washington Birthday" is a clever
sketch written by Alexander Hume
Ford in collaboration with Mark
Twain, having for it's theme the Incl
dent of the cutting down of the cherry
tree. The part of George Washington
is very well taken by Master Ivan
Montrose Graham, whose speech and
action are spirited and effective. Mr.
w. l.. Emory does some splendid
work as Georges father, while Miss
Helen Sprinks, as Mary Washington
portrays the part with an understand
ing of its possibilities that leaves no
thing to be desired.
/ The, part of Georges half-brother
Lawrence, is well taken by Chester J
Hum, who recently broke into loca
theatricals as Fluffy" in the Elk
minstrel show. Master Roy Bush
who took the part of Sambo, George
slave, at almost the last moment, ha
been doing excellent work, and de
serves a great deal of credit.

returned, and in two cases a return
made of no true bill.
The majority of the cases submitted
deal with the importation of alien wo-
men for immoral purposes, and for the
harboring of them for such purposes
within three years of the date of
their arrival. A large number OF the
witnesses who were examined, and the
evidence submitted discloses an abso-
lutte disregard Of the Federal laws rela-
tive to immigration intended to pro-
tect the jurity of the home. In most
cases the testimony adduced was given
With great reluctance, showing a desire
on the part of the aliens to shield and
protect each other in these offences. We
commend the Department of Justice for
its work in endeavoring to break up
the practice, and respectfully urge that
J the prosecution OF all persons implcat-
ed be continued, and further urge that
the efforts of the department be espe-
cially directed against the men harbor-
ing the women and living upon the
I traffic. Our particular position as resi-
dents of Hawaii, owing to the large
| number of aliens here in the islands
! brings us into more intimate contact
with them than in perhaps any otheI
! portion of the United States, both il
our home life and in our business rela
tions and we deem it essential for tn,
protection of our homes and families
that statutes bearing on this subjec
be rigidy enforced,
We desire to express our appreciation
of the able manner in which the case
were investigated and presented by tn
United States District Attorney and I
commend his attitude in his vigorou
-. prosecution Of these cases.
Through the efforts of United State
, Marshal Hendry, in always prompt
having witnesses subpoenaed and /
seeing that they were in attendanc,
we have been saved much time.

ECZEMA CURED BY SIMPLE OIL.
Tender Skins of Children Soothed by
d Mild Liquid Compound.

Have you ever tried few drops OF
an oil of wintergreen compound for
skin trouble? 1t is the basis of a
liquid compound which seems to be
about the only safe and sure cure for
eczema, salt rheum, letter, ringworm
and kindred diseases.
The liquid is so mild that it is used
with wonderful soothing effect on the
tender skins of infants.
To prove efficacious, the oil of win
tergreen must be mixed with thymol
and glycerine, as in the Prescription or
DR.. D. d. Dennis, the Chicago skin spe-
cialist. The compound is known as
D. D. D. Prescription. Used with D.
d. D. Soap it appears to be infallible.
A. j. Brand, 1928 Joliet ST., New Or
leans La. writes:
about five years ago when my
daughter was about three months old
she had eczema very badly. Her neck
was one solid mass of sores, and we
tried every thing possible to relieve
her, but to no purpose. The doctor
we called said that he could cure her
but that it would take at least two
years to do so and on account OF
her age we surely thought that her
pain would kill her. We began using
D. d. d. Prescription and after using
two bottles she was as well and happy
child as you can see and with nc
mark or scar on her skin.
MY youngest daughter, now two
years old, started the same way with
sore neck about six months ago. We
did not lose any time in applying ID
ID. d. and it needed only few appiica
tions to heal her neck. also use ID
D. d. after shaving with beneficial re
suits"
AS far as we nave seen, the cures
with oil of wintergreen as used in ID
I'D. D. Prescription are permanent cures
And we certainly do know that the IN
slant ID. d. D. Prescription is applied
to the skin. the itch is relieved. A few
drops takes che itch away at once, cool
ing and refreshing the skin.-Honolull
