 The offense of Grainier was com mitted at Mesa on a train return ing fram Winkelman.

 He said that as the train was pull ing out of Mesa at a high rate of speed the conductor approached him on the flat car where he was riding and told him to get off. Grainier says that he replied that he was a sick man, suffering from a bad rupture, and that he could not get off the train without great dan ger.
 Then, he says, the conductor struck him, knocking him down. When the conductor advanced upon him. with the intention of throwing him off the train. Grainier says he fired without specially intending to find a mark, but to deter the con ductor from further attack
 This version of the affair is viz orously denied by the members of the train crew who say that the con ductor had not assaulted the defend ant but had merely ordered him off the train which had not yet gained headway, so that he could have with safety. The statement that brakeman had received fifty cents or any other sum from him was denied.
 witness for the defense was Dr. Palmer of Mesa who had been sum- moned to testify as to the phy-ical condition of the defendant. The doctor said that he was badly rup- tured but that condition he said would not have increased the danger of his alighting from the train un- less he had fallen in such a way that the rupture might have been 
 Grainier claims to be an Ameri- can citizen, thirty-seven years of age. He says he has lived in Aus Lralia and other foreign countries 'nd that he is a prospector by occu- patton. He had a set of prospector's implements with him at the tine of his arrest He said that he carried he revolver for the purpose of pro- .ecting himself when he was alone n the hills
 There are three or four more wit lesses to be heard for the defense. The case will probably go to the ury this afternoon.

BLOOD TROUBLES
CONSTITUTIONAL INFECTION

Constitutional Blood Poison IS the most insidious of all diseases. It begins in an insignificant manner, usually the appearance of tiny sore being the only outward evidence of its presence. But down in the blood the treacherous infection is at work, and in short time its chain of symptoms begin to crop out. The mouth and throat ulcerate, skin eruptions break out, sores and ulcers appear on the body, the glands in the groin swell, and sometimes the hair comes out. Mineral medicines cannot cure Con- stitutional Blood Poison; they only shut the disease up in the system to shoulder and await an opportunity of breaking out afresh. The only pos sible way to cure the disease is to REMOVE the germs from the blood. s. s. s. goes into the blood, and while removing the infection makes the blood pure, fresh and healthy. This

Friday. December Ie.

Washington, Dec. e16.-Representa-
tive Champ Clark issued statement
tonight fully outlining his platform as
prospective speaker Of the Democratic
house of representatives in the next
congress.
He proclaims himself in favor of the
appointment of house committees by a
committee, rather than by the speaker,
and the states his belief that the tariff
should be revised schedule by sched-
uIe, rather than in one single bill.
Those two subjects, says Mr.. Clark,
are the ones upon which he has been
continually importuned to make some
statement.
If this country is unprepared for
war, as officials of the military arm of
the government declare it to be. there
was evidence at the capitol today that
the same condition does not extend to
those members of congress who have
become involved in a discussion of the
subject.
Criticism and invective were the
missiles fred in broadsides from the
opposing factions, the exchanges TAX
ing the form of typewriter state
ments in which each side assailed the
motives Of the other.
Mr.. Tawney, chairman of the COM
mittee on appropriations, was the tar
get Of those who have sought to have
made public a special report tsent to
congress dealing with the state of the
national defenses and refused by the
house because of its confidential ma
ture.
That war scares are largely inspired
by armament contractors, who ulti-
mately would drag various countries
into the bankruptcy courts" was
charged by Francis w. Hirst, editor
of the London Economist, in an address
before the international conference of
the American Society for the Judicial
Settlement of International Disputes
tonight.

ROOSEVELT SPEAKS.
Addresses Chamber of Commerce
on Radical Reforms.

New Haven, Conn In the first pub
lie address he has delivered since the
recent election, Colonel Roosevelt de-
clared at the annual banquet of the
chamebr of commerce here that he was
radical who "most earenstly desired
to see radical program carried out by
conservatives.
He wanted to see great reforms car
ried out not by the men who will profit
by them, but by the men who will lose
by them, he said. He wanted men to
have fair start in the race, he de-
clared, another time; he did not want
the slow man to win.
Colonel Roosevelt was greeted cor
daily by gathering of 600 represen-
tatives of the business and commercial
interests and the professions OF the
state
The banquet had more than ordinary
Significance through the presence of
the guest, who recently was in contro-
versy with Judge Simeon e. Baldwin,
governor-elect, who had been invited
to attend. Judge Baldwin was not
present and the place assigned to him
at the guests table bore mute evil
dence of his absence.
Colonel Roosevelt was escorted from
New York by committee of the
chamber, and upon his arrival at the
station large and enthusiastic crowd
was waiting. With wave of his
hand the colonel acknowledged their
greeting, and with hearty laugh and
happy remark to those who reached
forth to shake his hand he edged his
way through the crowd to an automo-
bile. Colonel Roosevelt was driven to
the home of Colonel l. M. Ullman,
president of the chamber of commerce,
where friends were waiting to greet
him. From there, later, he went to
the banquet hall.

Washington, Dec. 13. ~ The senate
today listened to the first tariff debate
of the session and while the discussion
was largely academic, it served to de-
velop the important fact that Senators
Lodge and AIdrich are willing to join
in the piecemeal revision of the tariff.
The subject came up on motion to
refer to the committee on rules the
Cummins joint resolution providing for
the limitation Of the power to amend
bills looking to the modification of
paragraphs and schedules of the Payne
Aldrich bill.
Cummins occupied the floor in sup
port of the provision, but he was in
terrupted so frequently that the dis
cussion partook largely of the nature
of running debate. 1t was in this
discussion that Lodge and Aldrich
found occasion to announce their posi-
tions.
The Iowa senator disavowed any in
tention of opening up general tariff
discussion. Still he found it difficult
to avoid general expression on tariff
questions.
at is well known" he said, "that /
consider excessive and inexcusable
many of the duties levied by the law of
1909. l know also that many people
believe the law should be amended.
During the recent political struggle |
did not hear single utterance by a
Republican that did not admit that the
law contains duties that ought to be
changed and that it is the duty of con-
gress to act speedily.
"The real issue" he said, sis
whether we shall so amend our rules
as to permit the amendment of the
law schedule by schedule"

Washington-Su Surrounded by q trus-
tees of his choosing, comprising ex-
cabinet members ex-ambassadors, col
lege presidents, lawyers and educators,
Andrew Carnegie transferred to them
$40, 900, 600 in per cent first mort
gage bonds valued at $11, $780, 900, to
be devoted primarily to the establish
ment of universal peace by the aboli-
tion of war between nations and such
friction as may impair "the progress
and happiness of man."
When wars between nations shall
have ceased, the fund is to be applied
to such altruistic proposes as will
"best help man in his glorious ascent
onward and upward" by the Danish
ment of the "most degrading evil OF
evils" then harassing mankind.
AS Mr.. Carnegie read an informal
deed of trust announcing at length the
general purpose of his gift, there was
prolonged applause. He then ex-
planned the incidents which inspired
the gift at this time, and declared
with emphasis that if the English.
speaking race in the United States and
Great Britain once consolidated in the
movement for international peace, the
success of the measure in the rest of
the world would be assured.
That Great Britain stood ready to
cooperate with this country, Mr.. Car
negie said he felt certain, and all that
was now needed was the concurrence
of the president and the senate in pro-
mitigating the movement on behalf OF
the United States.

Monday. December y.

Washington, Dec. IL. - Senator
Borah, of Idaho, today introduced a
bill to remove all doubt as to the mean
ing of section of the 500, 900, 600 ir-
rigation law of last session, which
broadly prohibits opening to entry of
any lands on government projects until
the farm units have been established
and water is available for irrigation.
Senator Borah's bill provides that on
existing projects when an entry has
been relinquished, lands embraced in
that entry may be again entered. Sec
tion 8 remains in full force and effect,
however, regarding lands on new pro-
jects.
With but one protest heard, that of
Senator Hepburn, of Idaho, the senate
today confirmed the nomination of Ed
ward Douglas White, of Louisiana, to
be chief justice of the United States
Supreme court.
Accompanying Justice Whites name
in the list of nominations were those
of Justice Willis Vandevanter, of Wy
oming, now a judge of the eighth ju-
dicial circuit, and Joseph R. Lamar,
of Georgia, formerly of the Supreme
court of his state, to be associate JUS
tices of the Supreme court of the Unit
ed States.
The ocean mail bounty bill came up
as the unfinished business in the SEN
ate today, but the senate laid it aside
temporarily.
This course was taken on motion of
Senator Gallinger to accommodate 9TH
er business and does not mean that the
bill will not be pressed later.
The senate today testified a protocol
changing the dates fixed for the arbi-
tration with Mexico of the Chamizal
case, which involves title to the Cham
izal tract situated between Ell Paso,
Texas, and Ciudad Juarez, chihuahua.
The pension appropriation bill carry
ing 1853. 6SS, 600 was ordered reported
to the house by the appropriations
committee.

claring he favored the purpose Of the

CARE OF THE FLOORS
VARIOUS SUBSTANCES MAY 5H
USED FOR POLISHING THEM.
Water Should Be Employed sparlngy
As II VIII Cause the Wood to
Expand-Oll and Wax Con-
sdered the Best.

If one has been so fortunate as te
secure hardwood floor the intelligent
care Of 1t becomes a very important
matter and one which is not particu'
larly difficult If little thought and
attention are given to the subject
this purpose, but the processes are all
similar, namely, that of rubbing the
surface with some sort Of an oil OF
wax. In general, 1t is safe rule new
er to apply water to the surface of a
nice floor, at least not In sufficient
quantities to wet the fiber Of the wood
to any extent, because all wood, even
oak, is susceptible to moisture and to
the extent to which the fibers expand
they will dry afterwards and gradu
ally cracks will appear in the boards.
If something has been spilled on the
floor so that 1t is absolutely necessary
to wash 1t, this should be done with
cloth wrung out Of water. For the
most part, however, oil and wax IN
some form are the proper cleaning
and polishing mediums. It is said that
equal parts Of sweet oil, turpentine
and vinegar, well mixed and well rub
bed into the floor with cotton or wool
en- rags, is highly successful method
OF treating a polished oak floor. The
acid in the vinegar cuts the dirt and
CRIME that works into 1t from shoes,
the sweet oil gives a luster and the
turpentine dries it. There are any
number of articles on the market that
are advertised for this purpose, and
some of them are very effective. In
testing any new brand of wax or other
application, 1t is well to try 1t first Of
all on a small portion Of the floor in
some inconspicuous part Of the room.
A weighted brush is a great advan-
tage, though more or less expensive.
A piece of plank covered with Brus-
sells carpet is not a bad substitute.
The above-named mixture does not
need to be applied to the floor oftener
than once month, and about once a
year coat of good floor wax should
be well rubbed into the floor.
The application of varnish to a hard
wood floor is modern method of fin
ishing. The old-time method being
that Of rubbing them with wax, and
very beautiful surface may be thus
produced, provided the floor has first
had a thorough coating with a paste
filler which fills UP every pore and
crack and makes perfectly smooth
surface.
