Consul General Kicks on His Laundry

without doubt-Consul-Gen Snod- grass Che is no relation to Snodgrass, of the New York Giants, who snagged Baker, of the Athletics during the worlds series game), writes to the de- partment of commerce and labor a fiery report on the wash subject and begs some enterprising American cap italist to hurry over to Moscow and start real United States laundry.
 There isn't modern establishment of the kind in the city, he states. In fact, the only steam laundry open to the public in the entire empire is at St. Petersburg, and that is too far from Moscow to send a collar with any hope of getting it back before another consul-general comes into of. fee.
 'In the private hand laundries," he states, ''only women and girls are em ployed- They work in deep, dark eel lars, without ventilation and poorly lighted, and the work is unsatisfac- tory, as injurious chemicals are used to break the water and fragile cloth. ing lasts only a few washings.

Dormant Accounts Reach Big Total

Money at four per cent interest peP annum doubles itself in about IS years, and as four per cent. is the average rate paid by the savings banks in New York, it will be seen that the "un- claimed' money or dormant accounts, unless checked would pile up enor- mously in the course of time and be- come such a burden that the banks might collapse under it. At first the limit was fixed at 20 years, but later was extended to 22 years.
 Most of these sleeping accounts were originally sums of only $5 or $10, fag-ends of accounts which once were active. The owners perhaps had left these small balances simply to keep their accounts open and finally perhaps forgot all about them. But many of the accounts represent money deposited by some emigrant who later probably went west or to some other section of the new country, and, un- able to write, had never again got in with the bank
 Several of the deposits were made by men for the benefit of some child or other person, while a number of others represent the savings of seafar- ing men who had sailed away and for some reason never returned.

Brotherly Love Man Spanks His Wife

ings. When we make up,~ she said. 'ft will be useless - ask George tc sign a pledge to spank me no more. He wouldn't make any such promise. and wouldn't even apologize for any of the spankings of the past. He is not the kind of man who apologies. In fact, I've never heard him say that he was sorry for anything he ever did.
 We have been married about two years and half. He commenced spanking me two weeks after our we'd ding day and has kept it up almost weekly ever since. He has a temper and so have I; and if we jangle, a spanking follows. He is not a big man and I am not a small woman, but I am completely helpless in his arms. His muscles are like iron.
 q can't tell how many times have been spanked At first, l endured the humiliation of such punishment be- cause I didn't want people to know about it. Then I threatened to have him arrested. I suppose I threatened so often that he thought I would never do anything. But when he spanked me harder than usual caus- ed his arrest. It didn't cost me any thing, but George had to pay $10 for a lawyer, although 1t seemed to me that s5 would have been enough for such easy work"

ID DHILADELPHIA.-W a husband | forms the habit of spanking his wife, it is not easy to induce him to change his way. Of this Mrs. Mabel Baker is firmly convinced. Before breakfast she had her husband, Geo. Baker, a meat dealer, arrested for having spanked her, but when he was arraigned before Magistrate Beaton in the City Hall police court a few hours later, she announced that she did not want him sent to jail. He was discharged.
 There is only one way to get George to do a thing" said Mrs. Baker, in admitting that the court proceedings were not an entire sue cess, and that is to have him make up his own mind to do it.''
 While she is not yet on speaking terms with her husband, Mrs. Baker seemed cheerfully certain that the ex- isting strained relations will end. She also looked forward to more spank

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the EuStachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed you have a rumo- ling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma- tion can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inf1ammed condition of the mucous surfaces. , We will give one hundred dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catar- rh) that cannot be cured by Halls Ca tarrh Cure.

NEW YORK.-More than $1,O0O,000 " is lying in the savings banks of New York city in what banking peo- pie call dormant accounts"-that is accounts to which nothing has been added and from which nothing has been withdrawn for many years. But the depositor in each case is liable to appear any day and demand it. In fact, since the beginning of the year five accounts in the Emigrants' Sav- ings bank alone, which had been un- touched for from 25 to 30 years, sud denly became active through the owners, who had not been seen nor heard from in that long period, reap bearing at the bank. Some of these dormant accounts are more than 70 years old; none is less than 22, and what to do with such deposits has been puzzle ever since savings banks were first established in that city,

STAT E. NEWS
THE CLIFTON FLOOD DAMAGES ARE
 MPROM|SED
Eighteen Damage Suits Are Settled After Six Years of Litigation; Morenc Dam Burst Just Six
 Years Ago.

Eighteen law suits, extending over a period of six years, and involving about $85,000, were settled yesterday morning by compromise. The suits arose from the flood at Clifton, Ariz in 1906 when the dam of the Detroit Copper company at Mdrenci broke. The water swept down the country and did great damage to the houses and stores in it's path.
 When the cases were first brought to trial before Judge Campbell, of Tucson, they were thrown out of court on a demurrer. The cases were taken to the supreme court and were ordered reinStated, the deciSOn of the lower court being reversed. The cases did not come to trial on the reversal of this decision, but were settled by compromise.
 It was alleged by the plaintiffs in the case, the people whose property was damaged at Clifton, that the valuation of the stuff destroyed was SS5,0OO. On the compromise, it is undestood that this sum was not all lowed the plaintiffs, by the defendant the Detroit Copper Company.
 The time of the disaster was Dec ember 8, 1906, exactly six years ago yesterday. There were originally 19 cases, but IS of these have been set tied and it was thought that the re- maining case would be finished with in a few days. It is a suit for $5,000. Hereford and Curley, of Tucson, were attorneys for the Clifton people.

IF John H. snodgrass, consul-general

IF John H. Snodgrass, consul-general at Moscow, ever kicked about his laundry work in Cincinnati, Washing ton or Indianapolis, he begs the par don of every steam cleaning estab- lishment, every slant-eyed Celestial, and every colored washerwoman in those and other cities. What they are doing to his collars, his shirts and unmentionable wearables over there in the land of the czar is something awful to relate. Besides that, the way they are soaking John in the mat ter of price is enough to make any American citizen utter loud walls of distress. For instance, they charge a nickel to do up a collar, and "the work is unsatisfactory and the finish ing is crudely done," he insists.

 LIFE WITH ANGRY DEER

BOULDER, Colo, Dec. 3.-For 50 minutes B. M. Smith, superintendent of the Chauaupun park, fought bare handed with an enraged buck deer and was saved from death by the arrival of park attendants, who heard his cries.
 Smith went to the. enclosure on his morning feeding round, when the buck dashed at him. The superintend ent fought for almost an hour by hanging to the deer's antlers. The furious buck tossed him into the air and dashed the man to the ground time and again, breaking four ribs and his left arm.

 This flow goes to Mrs. E. A. Wash burns on her land two miles south of town, the San Simon Land & Water Co.,, drilling.
 Two flows have been struck, the first at about 660 feet and the second a little deeper. However, no atten- tion was paid to these, the company continuing drilling for a deep test well.
 Thursday, after having reached T depth of 500 feet, the company was obliged to suspend operations until a larger derrick can be installed, the one in use being too small and frail to stand the strain.

ARMY ENGINEERS
AT FLORENCE.

The Board of Army Engineers, con- siSting of Lieut.. Col. c. H. Mckin- stry, Lieut.. Col. W. c. Langfitt and Maj. Harry Burgess, convened by the Secretary of War, pursuant to an Act of Congress, and directed to examine the San Carlos reservoir site and re- port upon it's feasibility and desirabili- ty as storage project, arrived in Florence on the morning of the 18th shortly after o'clock. They arrived in Phoenix on the 18th, went the next day, by auto, to Sacaton, and he next to Casa Grande and back to Sacaton from which place they came hither. Several automobile parties came in with them from Casa Grande and a large number of Pima Indians follow ed in their wake. The party was met in front of the court house by a num- Der of prominent citizens of Florence, in automobiles, and few moments later the entire party started for the diversion damsite locations of the Pin al Mutual Irrigation Company and the Casa Grande Valley w. U. Associa- tion. A twenty minute run brought the party to the said da msites, and after a casual examination of them the engineers requested that all eli gineering data, maps, plans and speci- fcationS relating to the diversion dam be sent to tne1r neadQuarterS III the Central Building, Los Angeles. The party then returned to Florence, where a mass meeting was held in the court house, and everybody given permis- siCn to tell what they knew about the San Carlos damsite and the benefits it would confer upon the Indians and settlers of this valley, in case it should be constructed. Col. Langfitt called the meeting to order and stated that it had been called by the engin- eers with a view to obtaining from the people of this valley all facts and data in their possession that may be of use to the Board in determining the possi- bilities of this valley under an irriga- tion system backed by the stored water at San Carlos, in case that site should be found a feasible storage site. He then asked that a chairman be chosen from the audience to preside over the meeting and Thos. F. Weed in was selected. Before taking the chair, he addressed the Board of En- gineers, giving a historical review of the efforts heretofore made by the set tiers of this valley to obtain water storage at Buttes, Riverside and San | Carlos.

FOE OF FOOD EXPERT WILEY

According to the evidence before the house investigation, Solicitor George F. McCabe is the man who has been trying to oust Dr. Wiley from the bureau of chemistry of the agricultural department. Although ne has been the active adversary of Dr. Wiley for long time, it is only re- gently that McCabe has been brought further into the limelight. When the pure food and drugs act went on the statute books McCabe became SO ncitor'' of the agricultural depart ment. Congress specified that the bu- reau of chemistry should be the arbi- ter of questions arising under the pure food and drugs act. Wiley was head of the bureau. But McCabe said in effect that the solicitor" of the department, the position he was oc- cupying, should be the actual arb1ter of the questions involved in the act. That was the beginning of the strug- gle for supremacy. Young McCabe is the son of a railroad engineer of }.

Governor Foss of Massachusetts COM

in the last presidential campaign,
analyses them, then compares them
with his (Roosevelt's) recent utter

look upon Williams countenance as
