TRIAL NEARS CONCLUSION Murder Case in Which "Cnwrltten Law" Plays Important Part Will Probably Go Before Jury Early Tomorrow. The Dickerson murder case will prob ably be In the hands of the Jury early tomorrow, for the defense has only three witnesses to call this morning. One of these Is R. T. Dickerson himself, who Is accused of shooting Harry A. Gar rett his employe, because the latter had been making love to Mrs. Dickerson. At torney John A. Jeffrey, representing Dickerson. also promises to connect up and Introduce In evidence four letters of an affectionate nature, written by Mrs. Dickerson to Garrett before the murder, which took place at the Dickerson ranch on the Patten road, June H. In one of these letters, according to Jeffrey. Mrs. Dickerson sends -lots of love" and asks Garrett to meet her at the Perkins Hotel. Another, written June 19. the next day. asks him to come to her room. No. 511. on the fifth floor, where she will meet him. aod adds. "Don'.t let anyone See you come." Still another, written June 15. wants to know what day It was that Tom (Dickerson) was disguised. an(1 ad1s suggestively. "He sot" left, anyway, didn't he?" This reference is to a time when Dickerson donned a soldier's uniform, supposedly to spy upon his wife and Garrett. Mrs. Mabel Benjamin, a cook at the Dickerson ranch until June 13. testified yesterday that Garrett told her when she was leaving. "I would like to leave, too, but before I go I would like to take a shot at that soldier boy." Two more letters, which Mrs. Benja min said Dickerson found in a trunk and brought downstairs for her to read, were Introduced in evidence, and read to the jury yesterday. In these Mrs. Dickerson cautioned Garrett to be care ful not to (rive her husband a clew as to what was going on. because the law yers whom she had consulted In regard, to her divorce case, then pending, had told her to be careful. In one of the letters she asks Garrett to meet her at the postoffice. The witness told of seeing Garrett and Mrs. Dickerson talking together near the house while the other men were away. She also told of the affectionate parting of Dickerson and his wife on the morning of May 22. when they had an appointment to meet In town at S o'clock. She saw Dickerson In the even ing, she said, and he seemed broken hearted because he had not met his wife and his little daughter Pearl was gone. The first witness yesterday was Her man Breyer. who works as an extra bartender at the Palm Leaf Saloon, at First and Salmon streets. He said Gar rett talked by telephone to Mrs. Dick erson from the saloon, where Dickerson usually paid off his men. The witness said Garrett told the woman the buggy would "be there at the time set" and that he understood that Garrett Intend ed to "steal" Mrs. Dickerson. He made a notch In his knife at the time, he said, so as to remember to tell Dickerson about !t. Much quizzing on the part of Deputy District Attorney Fitzgerald was necessary to get Breyer to say whether he notched the knife or merely made a mark with a pencil. Thomas C. Bowen said Garrett came to his place with a load of sand on Thurs day or Friday prior to the shooting, and that he remarked that he saw in the papers that Mrs. Dlokerson was suing the second time for a divorce. Garrett remarked, said Bowen, that "I will put daylight through that If he evre Interferes with me." Mrs. Susie A. Snyder, who testified for the state Friday, was recalled, but her testimony was disappointing to the de fense, as she had not told Dickerson of anything Garrett had said.

OFF FORGONFERENGE METHODIST DELEGATES LEAV ING FOR COTTAGE GROVE. Governing Body of Church in Ore gon Will Meet Formally Tomorrow. Tonight the 57th session of the Ore gon annual conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church will open unofficially at Cottage Grove, when Dr. T. B. Ford, pastor of the church at Hood River, will deliver his address on Abraham Lincoln. Tomorrow morning the conference will get down to business. Bishop Smith, of Portland, presiding. Bishop Smith finished with the Puget Sound conierence at Belllngham yester day and will pass through Portland to day on his way to Cottage Grove, where tomorrow morning he will open the first business session of the Oregon confer ence.

Wire, of Eugene district; and Rev. R. E. Dunlap. of Klamath dis trict. The four superintendents comprise the bishop' cabinet, and assist him In administering the affairs of the confer ence. Bishop Smith, however, having been In the field a great deal himself, since being assigned to Portland, under stands quite well the problems before the church throughout Oregon, and will therefore be able. In a large measure, to decide for himself what to do In re gard to the various questions that are for him to decide. This has been a record-breaking year In the church, prosperity being every- Bishop Charles ".V. Smith, Who. Will Preside Over Oregon Con ference of Methodist Churches). where marked. In Portland dlstriot alone there have been many new houses of worship built, and this is largely the case all over the conference, which in clude the greater part of Western Ore gon, and a few charges In Northern Cali fornia. Many of the Portland pastors will leave for Cottage Grove this morning, and some went last night. While at this time there appears to be nothing of unusual Interest on the programme for debate, there is always much business, and the confer ence will undoubtedly be In session until next Monday, when the bishop will read the list of appointments, placing the 107 active members of the conference in their respective pastorates for another year. Few changes are looked for In Portland, although this can never be accurately forecasted, many things entering into the arrangement of the Itinerant scheme upon which the church Is operated.

MAYOR VIEWS PARK TRACT Personally Examines Property Near Mount Scott Offered to City. Mayor Simon yesterday afternoon ac cepted an invitation from the Seventh Ward Auxiliary League to visit the Mount Scott district and examine per sonally the Corvallls 40-acre tract at Nashville, with a view to securing it for a park. Dr. E. A. Myers, Howard Croft and W. E. Farmsworth, committee from the league, showed the Mayor around the tract. He went out in his automobile with the committee and made a complete circuit of the tract, by way of the Foster road, swinging around along the south ern and western boundaries. He spoke very favorably of the tract, and re marked that he was not aware that there was 6uch a tract in that section. At Nashville, on the Mount Scott line. Mayor Simon left his car and spent a few minutes talking to the committee and other citizens. He expressed him self as interested In the neighborhood and also a willingness to do what he could in its behalf. However, he said he could not buy the park offhand, but would give the matter consideration. The land may be had, said Mrs. Croft, for J1300 an acre. The Mayor's attention was called to the want of Are protection, and was asked if a chemical engine could not be secured for the neighborhood, and he suggested that the matter be taken up with the Chief of the Fire Department. His attention also was called to the need of electric lights. Although Mayor Simon made but a short stay he obtained a good idea of the extent of the new ter ritory and its general condition.

S. S. the most extensively used of all medicines in the treat ment of Contagious Blood Poison. Unlike the strong mineral mixtures, whioh temporarily remove the outward symptoms and shut the disease up in the system, there to carry on its destructive work on the delicate and vital organs, S. 8. S. strikes directly at the root, and by purifying the blood of every trace of the virus, completely and permanently cures .the trouble. 8. S. S. is Nature's blood purifier, harmless in its action and certain in its good results. It is made from a combination of root3 and herbs, each of which has a definite and epecifio action in purifying the blood. Years were spent in selecting and proportioning the different ingredients, but when S. S. 3. was perfected it soon demonstrated its superiority over all other blood medicines, and now, after 40 years, it is still the one and only certain cure for Contagious Blood Poison. "While driving out the poison from the circulation S. S. S. builds up and strengthens the system by its fine vegetable tonio effects. If you are suffering with Contagious Blood Poison S. S.

ECZEMA A GERM DISEASE Myriads of Microscopic Animals Infest the Skin of the Sufferer. When the skin of an eczema suf ferer itches and burns in untold agony, do you know what Is going on within the pores of that skin? Myriads of microscopic animals are gnawing at the flesh, breaking down the fine cells and causing festers, thick scales and that terrible itch. The germs multiply faster that Nature can throw them off. Now, there is only one way to get rid of these germs they must be killed in their lodging places. Dosing the stom ach or trying to cure the blood will not, of course, kill the germs, and that is why all the blood remedies fail in eczema; that is also why salves which do not penetrate can do no permanent good. Ordinarily oil of wintergreen prop erly compounded in liquid form will penetrate the pores of the skin and kill the eczema germs. If properly mixed with thymol, glycerine and other Ingredients (as in D. ' D. D. Prescrip tion) this wash will build up the tissue of the skin and promote Its healthy growth, giving Nature a chance, while killing the germs faster than they can multiply. - Woodard, Clarke & Co., Skldmore Drug Co. of this city, J.
