Insurance Companles Hit.

San Francisco, January 22.-tSpe- cial. )-Insuranc companies were given another blow today in the United States circuit court when a jury gave verdicts for plaintiffs holding 13 policies. The aggregate amount of the verdicts against the companies is $780, 765.50. The 13 suits were consolidated and tried before Judge Dietrich of Idaho, who sat for Judge Van Fleet, who was disqualified. Four weeks were spent in the trial and nearly 300 witnesses were examined All the policies had what is known as an earth quake clause, The jury found that in the 13 policies the earthquake was not a proximate cause, the loss being caused by fire

 LODGED IN JAIL No Demonstration At Station When They Arrived TROUBLE NOT UNEXPECTED Prison at Decatur Is Heavily Guarded From Fear of Attempt to Lynch

 Girl.
TROUBLE NOT UNEXPECTED

Decatur. January 22>-(Special.)- Deputy Will B. Scott of Decatur reached here this afternoon on the s:s0 o'clock Southern train with Delza and Clint Lang. the two brothers who. last "wednesday, are alleged to have out ragged 1s-year-old Rosie McCusiton, an orphan girl. near valh ermoosa sprin gs this county. The men are tonight safe ly lodged in ths Morgon county jail in this city
 A large crowd met the train at the depot Deputy Scott was met by Sheriff Thomas R. shipp and several deputies end the prisoners were spirited away to the jail before many of the crowd knew of their presence. There was no dem- onstration at the depot or on the way to the jail
 A large crowd of country men are in town tonight but all is quiet. It Is feared d mob may reach here before morning from the scene of the crime. In the meantime Sheriff shipp has the tah heavily guarded in anticipation of trouble and says he will protect the prisoners at any cost.
 After an exciting race In yaw1s and launches on the Tennessee river Thurs day night. the Lang brothers escaped the officers and made their way to Chattanooga. Tenn. where they were arrested yesterday by the chief of police of that city.
 When seen here in the county jail tonight Delza Lang admitted that he had been intimate with Rosie MeCusi- ton. but with her consent. Ills brother Clint denies any knowledge of tho crime. but admits he saw his brother and Rosie together in tho woods on the night the crime is alleged to have been committed Both men are badly frightened and fear mob violence.
 A regular grand jury will convene early next month and this case may go over until that time.
 In the meantime Rosie McCusiton is in 8 dangerous condition and unable to appear in courl. The statement of the girl will be sufficient to convict the men if 1t is not broken down She says one of the men held her while the other accomplished his purpose Her body is badly bruised and 1acsrated.
 Tho story of the crime is that Rosie Mccusiton left the home of J. B. Free, near Decatur, Sunday afternoon. Later in the day Clifford Free began e search for the girl. Hearing a cry for help coming from thicket, young Free entered He was confronted by Clint Lang. who leveied . pistol at his head and ordered him away. He saw the girl thsya. 1t Ia said. being held prisoner by the Lang brothers. Later the girl was taken to the home Of John Hall, in on unconscious condition. Monday the Lang boys disappeared.

ing of the Association of Life Insurance Presidents, held at Washington, by Dr. N. J. Rossnau. formerly of the United States public health and marine hospital service, but now of the department of preventive medicine and hygiene of liar ward university-the first chair of the kind in this country;
 "A good illustration of what may be accomplished by the intelligent applica- tion of knowledge has been shown in Billbid prison, Manila, where the death was 2ss per 1oOo-a veritabls black hole of Calcutta. This was hammered down to 75 per 1000 by introducing general san itary measures, such as boiled water screens against flies and vermin, im- proving the quality of the food, dimin- ishing the crowded conditions, affording better air and more sunshine. and other wholesome reforms. But despite these measures the death rate could not be improved. It stayed at 75 per 1o0O-still excessive. Then 1t was found that many of the prisoners were infected with hook worms. Thymol was administered with the result that the death rate fell to 1S5 per 1000"
 Think of it From 23a in 1900 to 13.5. I can offer no stronger plea than the above for the encoura cement in every possible way of the movement inaugur- ated by the southern health conference, which abandoned the more specific term hookworm conference in deference to the crying demand for better hygienic con- ditions for our people. The executive committee has not yet announced their plan of campaign, but 1t is probable that the county medical societies will appoint men to go from place to place in the counties and give public ad- dresses and distribute literature and help to arouse the people.
 1n concluding I wish to suggest that the Chamber of Commerce join with the medical forces of the state in an eff fort to secure the next meeting of the southern health conference for Birming- ham. Very respectfully.

 Finally
 It is up to us. Are we going to let this red-handsd American murderer" as Dr. Stiles aptly terms 1t, go stalking on through our land, polluting the soil and killing or invaliding-or worse than invsliding-thousands of our boys and girls. and making them unfit to support themselves or to procreate their kind7 Or are we going to get together and take hold of the situation and stamp out the curse7
 America aroused Is a seer and a giant, but America-eupine Amer1ca-unaroused is a sioth and a fool. We are not easily aroused unless, as emphasized by pr. Stiles, there Is something spectacular, something bizarre on the boards.
 The death rate in the United States from typhoid fever. a preventible disease, is 5000 per annum-enough to make city nearly the size of old Birmingham but we don't get excited about 1t; it's only typhoid fever, and some folk just will have 1t.
 When the earthquake and fire de- stroyed San Francisco there was such an unheaval of sympathy, and such an outpouring of money as this country never saw. The whole civilized world stood aghast at this awful oataclysm Of nature. Yet in the United States alone many times more deaths occur annually from tuberculosis-another preventible disease-than occurred in Frisco, but we don't get excited over it; it's only tuber- oulosis, and some folk just will have tu- berculosts anyhow, you know.
 In & few cases of yellow fever de- veloped on our gulf coast all the ma cflinery of the govsrnment-state and federal-fs set in motion within tho hour; hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent. and the commerce of cities is par alyEed, but when thousands of lives go quietly out every year ss a result, di- rectly or indirectly. of infection with the hookworm, we go quietly on our way and don't get excited about it. The national and state governments are spending thousands of dollars annually to eradicate the cattle tick, but never cent for eradication of the hook-' worm, which causes (not considering the deaths greater economic loss. We have bureau of animal industry to look after the hogs and the bull yearlings but a bureau of preventive medicine and hygiene ?-perish the thought

The Way to Cure
 All Skin Diseases
The Prescription Is Simple; Purify the Blood by Using stuart's Calcium
 Waters.
A Trial Package Sent Free.

If people only realized the utter ab- surdity of attempting to cure pim- ply, biotchy, unsightly complexion by means of the many irrational and illogi- cal methods employed in beauty par iors," and also in the boudoir, thousands of dollars which are wasted every year literally thrown away-would be saved and tho complexion rendered clear and hee from blemishss through constitution q treatment, at about one-tenth of one per cent of tho cost of the fancy and exceedingly expensive local treatments !"
 The idea of massaging the cheeks. and attempting to rub in a o-called skin fosd" fs the height of nonsense. Nature never intended the skin to be fed from the outsidA but from the inside exclu- xively. and it ts the blood which really feeds the skin. builds 1t up. and sup plies 1t with nutriment absorbed from the digestive system. There is real ly no such thing a. 'slsin-food," any moro than there is . "heart-food," or '1uns-food." or "brain-food."
 The skin is . waterproof. air-proot envelope over the muscular system and it has nc power to absorb cold creams. or any other medicaments when rubbed over its surface. While. of course steamtng the face, or massaging with electricity, or by hand. will draw the blood temporarily to the surface and produce an artificial glow, which may last half an hour or SO. but such treat ment brings no lasting benefit and will never cure wrinkles. pimples, pustules, blacl1hsads, or other facial blemishes.
 Besides the frequent treatment of the skin in the way which beauty doctors have-those kneading, rubbing. cooking methods, making the face for the time being as red as . boiled lobster, also have the very undesirable effect of in- creasing and strengthening the hair growth on the cheeks.
 The only logical treatment in acquiring and maintaining g perfect complexion, devoid of all blsmishes. such as blotches. pimples. roughness, chapping. scaly patches. etc. is to 90 after these troubles from the inside--t0 strike at the founda- ton, the origin of the complaints--and that means in other words, to thorough ly purify the blood by using stuart's Cal- eium Waters,
 Thsse powerful little waters as soon as taken into the system, exert their won- dsrful. blood-purifyins effects. and they nevsv let up for . moment until every atom of impurity in the blood is elimi- mated, and. in addition to that, they also build up the blood and strengthen the eirauiatton through the skins surface, and thus render wrinkles and skin bien- ishes impossibls of existence.

the Columbus and Hooking coal and Iron

the Columbus and Hooking Coal and Iron
 porperty possesses the merit of being genuinely valuable, ana although there ma yhave been imprudent pool specula- ton in its securities, the row among in- siders does not materially subtract from the actual value of the underlying assets.
 The writer knows something about Co., lumbus and Hooking Coal and Iron, hav- ing personally been on the grounds and inquired into belongings. It Is fact that within the last year it has built the larg- est brick plant in the United States and developed highly valuable oil and natural gas fields on its lands.
 If allowed to carry out plans, 1t is
 reasonably certain to be earning divi- dends within another F months. This sounds like treason. in the face or the chorus of criticism and defamation that has been going on since the collapse or the speculative pool but 1t none the less true.
 In it's present mood the board of gov ernors of the stock exchange would nke very much to make a horrible example of the members intimately identihed with the speculation in Columbus and Hooking Coal and Iron, and to throw the stock oh inc exchange. The quick action of inter- ested parties in throwing the two leading firms into bankruptcy introduces the United States courts into the controversy, however. and may force the authorities of the exchange to def0r action until they can look at the facts in calmer frame of mind; and also to acquaint themselves with the facts in regard to the actual values behind the stock. This Is case where insiders who know most about the property were its most enthusiastic cham pions and believers They backed It with their own money ad lfp.
 One cause which led to the collapse or the Columbus and Hooking Coal and Iron pool was the free calling of loans by banking institutions known as Standard Oil banks and trust companies in which this stock was up as collateral Out or that fact grew the story that Standard Oil interests had adopted this method Tn the hope that they might "bust" the com paly and acquire the valuable oil ana gas lands owned by the corporation. This seems like far cry and Is not commonly believed. although to those immediately concerned it Is not without color or plausbility.
 One of the things which have become generally known in Wall street Is the fact that Mrs. Hartman mas been selling out the holdings of the Hartman estate in many of the enterprises in which her

The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1910-03-04

A recent decision Of the superior
court at Tacoma, if carried into effect,
means an early reduction in the state
grain inspection forces.
A hastily called conference was at
tended by members Of the commission,
State Grain Inspector Armstrong and
Attorney George T. Reid, Of the North
ern Pacific. The commission has de-
cided to appeal to the supreme court.
Grain inspectors are to strictly follow
the rule laid down by the court in the
meantime, which is that grain con-
signed by the owner himself is not sub
ject to state grain inspection charges.
Members of the commission say it is
expected the courts ruling will make
necessary a reduction in the inspection
forces because if coast buyers have
grain consigned to themselves under
the ruling, inspection, except in few
instances, may be practically elm
mated.
