Here is a sample of one headline
which appears in huge type:

All the college skeletons are I'M
earthed in the issue-awful scandals.
The issue tells of gambling and
drinking. an order from the faculty to
allow the use of the weed" on the
campus: "hot one" pulled off by a
practical joker, the appearance of
four men in the Washburn neighbor-

NOBLE DENIES CRIME.
Kansas Doctor Accused of Numbering
Denver Girl Takes Stand Thursday.

Denver, Colo, Feb. 26.-LOve let
tiers written by DIR. r. J. Mason from
Des Moines. Chicago and a Chicago
bound train were introduced as evil
dence Thursday at the trial of DIR. E.
W. Noble. accused jointly with Mason
of causing the death of Ruth Merri-
weather, a local society girl, last De-
cember.
the girl were sweethearts and plan
ming to wed. despite the fact that
Mason at the time had a wife in
Watseka. Ill. The wedding license of
Mason and his wife also was intro
duced
Dr. Noble took the stand in his own
defense. He denied that he had per-
formed an operation on Miss Merri-
weather and said that he had refused
to perform one when requested by
Mason. He declared he subsequently
treated Miss Merriweather in an eff
fort to save her life.
The Mason love letters, which are
the chief feature of the trial and will
be used against both doctors, contain
many protestations of love and affec-
ton for the girl now dead. In one of
them Mason wrote:
Have Noble do all the work as sooi,
as possible and it will all be over in
four or five days, No one will know,
am sure Of that. He can fix every
thing.
You probably hate me. but you
won't when you know. l know your
mother will not care for me again, but
then 1 can't help that.
II have nothing more to tell you.
only I know that this is the only way
part l will do mine, as we have prom
iSed."

SENDS WHEAT DOWN.
Report Of Dardanellcs Opening Causes
Drop of ) Cents.

Chicago, Feb. 26.-Selling that bor-
dered on a panicky nature swept the
wheat market down more than five
cents today.
The critical situation regarding the
possible opening of the Dardanelles
was chiefly responsible.
May wheat sold as low as $1.4S1s
at the opening. as against $685. at
the close last night. July wheat
dropped four cents. Support from
those who believe that the straits are
still a long way from being open to
the shipment OF grain was forthcom-
$1.49% and July, which had touched
$1.21K. advanced to $1.22 within the
first ten minutes of trading.

STRAITS
Allied Fleet Has Passed De-
StrOyed Forts of Dardanelles.
But It's a Long, Long Way to
COnstantinOple.
(By Ed l.. keen.)

London, Feb. 26.-Preceded by
mine sweepers. the allied fleet under
Vice Admiral Garden has moved past
the destroyed Turkish forts at the en-
trance to the Dardalelles anC has be-
gun Smelling land Notifications on
both sides of the strait, according to
Athens dispatches today. Twenty
five miles away, the Turkish fleet is
lying in Niagara Roads, the narrOwest
part of the waterway. If the French
and English warships batter their way
past the great chain of forts leading
to the Niagara Roads. one of the
most decisive naval battles of the war
may be fought in the narrow river
like channel.
Official announcement that the outer
forts of the Dardanelles have been re-
duced aroused great enthusiasm here.
Military experts. however made no
effort to minimize the great obstacles
still facing Garden before the war
ships can EMERGE from the sea of Mar
mora and begin the bombardment of
tOnstantinOple. They must pass
through a channel thiclSly strewn with
mines and fight their way past an al
most endless series Of forts. Fifteen
miles inside, the strait suddenly mar
lows to a width of one and one-fifth
miles. A small island further OBJ
structs the channel at this point and
twelve Notifications, nine on the Euro
pean and three on the Asiatic side,
command the waterway. These forts
are equipped with heavy Krupps.
Reports from various sources. how
ever. confirms yesterdays Athens dis
patches that the Turkish government
has made preparations to abandon
Constantinople. This is taken as an
official admission that eventually the
allied fleet must force it's way through
the Dardanelles, bottle up and destroy
the Turkish navy and drive one of
Germany's allies from the war.

Clear Complexion
Stuart's Calcium Waters act direct
ly upon the sweat glands of the
skin. since their mission is to stimu-
late the excretory ducts. They do not
create perspiratiOn. but cause the skin
to breathe out vigorously, thus trans
forming perspiratiOn into a gaseous
vapor. The calcium sulphide of which
these waters are composed consumes
the germ poisons in the sweat glands
and pores, hence the blood makes a
new. smooth skin in a surprisingly
short time.
You will never be ashamed to look
at yourself in a mirror, once you use
Stuart's Calcium Waters Nor will
your friends give you that limiting look.

Last evening H. n. Dryer of the

committee from the Pendleton Com.

plans for the celebration on May 4

Lewiston boats. At o'clock in the
afternoon the boats will reach Cello.

REWARD OF $50 OFFERED
FOR FALSE ALARM FIENOS
SPECIAL OFFICER WILL ALSO BE
PUT ON DUTY TO CATCH
"JOKESTER."

II you are the fellow who has been
turning in the false fire alarms you
will do we'll to quit 1t, Here are
some reasons why. The false alarms
are costing the city some good hard
cash and at secret meeting of the
council last evening following the reg
ular session II was voted to offer a re-
ward OF $50 for the arrest Of anyone
turning in n fake alarm.
Not only that but the council has
arranged for special officer to work
unknown to the police and to the fire
men with view to catching the joke
ster.
The flremen are also getting tired OF
the false alarm business as 1t tends to
bring the department into dlsrepute
and causes the firemen to be accused
Of having the alarms turned in SO they
may be called out.
A further step that may be taken
is the installment OF an attachment at
each box so that when man turns In
an alarm he will stay right in his
tracks until the department arrives
An apparatus will clutch his hand and
hold him fast until the fire chief can
unlock him, Such an attachment Is
used on the fire boxes In Seattle and
does away with fake alarms.
