Accuses Money Interests of Chicago
of Using Same Methods of Corr,up-

Washington, June 23.-The new in
vestigation by a senate committee iato
the charges that bribery effected fhe
election of William Lorimer as United
States senator from Illinois, began In
earnest, with Richard Yates, former
governor of Illinois, as the star wit
ness.
MIR Yates was questioned closely as
to Jackpot" funds and other forms
of corruption in the Illinois legislature
at the time he was governor.
George W. Human, editor and pub
Usher of the Chicago Inter-Ocean, pre-
coded Mr.. Yates on the stand. He de-
clared his belief that there was
jackpot" fund as every session of
the Illinois legislature in the last
twelve years. He accused the money
interests of Chicago of using the same
methods of corruption against Lorinel
which have been charged effected Lor

the session when Lorimer was elected,
he said it was believed the liquor in
terests of Peoria had contributed. He
Irofessed entire ignorance of any

governor, Speaker Mueller came to
him with an account of two men at
tempting to bride him to aid in the
passage of the bill and how the bill
was passed.
"Mr. Mueller died shortly afterward,
because the house, instead of investi-
eating the alleged bribery, investigat-
ed him, his friends told me-" said Mr..
Yates.
Mr. Yates said John J. Lane, a Chi
cago InterOcean reporter, came to
him in 1901 with a report that a cor
ruption fund existed in the Legislature.
Because Lane could produce no Wit

DEATH AT LOS ANGELES
 0F TOM 1. SHEPPARD
The End of a Fifteen-Year Struggle
 With Disease.

Word reached the city yesterday Of the death of Tom l.. Sheppard at Los Angeles on April 4 The news came in a letter to Judge J. M. Jamison from a brother of the dead man. w. C.. Sheppard of Grand Rapids, Mich.
 Death occurred at the Methodist hos pital Los Angeles, which MT. Shep- pard entered on January 10 of this year. The immediate cause of death was acute diabetes. The interment, Mir. Sheppard asid, would take place at the old home of the family, Granville, Ohio.
 Tom sheppard had many friends in and about Phoenix. He came here for his health about six years ago. The last fifteen years of his life was a struggle with disease. but II was carried on by him with cheerfulness and hopefulness.
 Sometime after coming to the val ley, MT. Sheppard invested in real estate, expecting to go into the orange business, an enterprise he was com pelled to abandon on account of the increasing inroads of his disease. He was born at Sidney, Ohio. Febru- ary If, 1874. After completing his edu- cation he engaged in the newspaper { business as a reporter and writer for the press in Cleveland, Pittsburg and elsewhere. He gave promise of suc- cess but was compelled to relinquish | his work by illness.

 FOR DENVER.
Prominent Association Workers to Wis
 it City at End of April.

The board of directors of the Y. NJ c. A. accepted the resignation of s. R. Steele formerly in charge of the boys
 work, yesterday morning. Mir. Steel
 will leave this morning for Denver.
 where he goes on account of his wife's health, as Mrs. Steele has been ailing for some time and the doctor has ad- vised a higher altitude for her. The board heard of his decision, and ac- cepted his resignation with regret, as MT Steele's services have been all that could be desired. It was originally planned to place him in charge of the
 educational work of the association, in
 stituted especially for the younger
 members, but no opportunity has of
 fered up to this time to inaugurate the
 studies, and MT. Steele leaves without
 having entered actively upon the duties for which he was especially engaged. Those who have been familiar with
 the character of his work in the asso- citation, and with MT. Steele himself will continue to regret his departure
 as he would have given an impetus and
 spirit to the work among the boys
 which would have been productive of
 great deal of good. The success of the Boy Scout movement in Phoenix
 is largely due to the enthusiasm with
 which MT. Steele took up the idea of or
 ganizing the boys of the city, and in a
 number of enterprises he has shown
 all the initiative necessary for success
 in the difficult duties of superintend-
 ent of the juvenile department of the
 Young Mems Christian association.

30 Years of Success
The Owl Pharmacy Offers Remedy for Catarrh. The Medicine Costs
 Nothing if 1t Fails.

! When a medicine effects a successful
 treatment in a very large majority or leases. and when We offer that medicine on our own personal guarantee that | it will cost the user nothing if it does mot completely relieve catarrh, it is
 only reasonable that people should be- lieve US, or at least put our claim to practical test when We take all the risk. These are facts which We want the people to substantiate. We want them to try ReXall Mucu-Tone, a medi- cine prepared from a prescription of a physician with whom Catarrh was a speciality, and who has a record of thirty years of enviabIe success to his record.
 We receive more good reports about
 ReXall Mucu-Tone than we do of all other catarrh remedies sold in our store, and if more people only knew what a thoroughly dependable remedy Rexall Mucu-Tone is, it would be the only catarrh remedy We would have any demand for.
 Rexau Mucu-TOne is quickly ab- sorbed and by its therapeutic effect tends to disinfect and cleanse the en- tire mucous membraneous tract, to de- stroy and remove the parasites which injure the membraneOus tissues, to soothe the irritation and heal the sore ness, stop the mucous discharge, build up strong, healthy tissue and relieve
 the blood and system of diseased mat ter Its influence is toward stlmulat- ing the muco-cells, aiding digestion and improving nutrition until the
 whole body vibrates with healthy activity. In a comparatively short time it brings about a noticeable gain in weight. strength, good color and feeling of buoyancy.
 We urge you to try ReXall Mucu- Tone, beginning a treatment today. At any time you are not satisfied. simply come and tell us, and we will quickly return your money without question or quibble. We have ReXall Mucu- Tone in two sizes, 50 cents and $1.OO. Remember you can obtain ReXal Rem edies in Phoenix only at our store,- The RexalF Store.
