Capture of HIh First Hnaeninn by
Const Lenmie Enrajtea Mm. .
SEATTLE, Feb. 20. (Special.) President
Lou Cohn, of the Seattle Pacific coast
League baseball team, today announced
that Bill Hurley, the tar first baseman
of the Seattle club in the Pacific North
west League last year, had deserted Man
ager Dugdale, and wan now on his way to
Los Angeles to join Manager Parke Wil
son, of Seattle.
Cohn made the announcement to Man
ager Dugdale on the street and for the
first time since the baseball war broke
out Dugdale lost his temper. The adjec
tives he used would Illuminate a copy of
the Police Gazette to perfection. Most of
Dugdale'e speech wa directed against
Parke Wilson, but Cohn came in for a
share. Dugdale accused his opponents ol
waging unfair war. Cohn "replied that
Wilson was after a ball team, and could
not be blamed, for getting good men when
they came to him.'
Dugdale bad been so positive of Hurley's
loyalty that when Cohn sprang the sen
sation on bjm, It simply took h!a .breath
away.
Cohn also states emphatically that 6tov
all, the star of the Pacific Northwest
League last year, will play with Seattle
In the Coast League the coming season.

RELATIVES WANT MILLIONS
Woman's Gift to Princeton Theolog
ical Seminary In Contest.
New York Herald.
Relatives of Mrs. Mary J. Wlnthrop are
determined If possible to prevent the
larger portion of her fortune from going
to the Theological Seminary of the Pres
byterian church at Princeton. N. J. For
this purpose a few of them have begun a
contest over the probate of the will In
the Surrogate's Court. When Mrs. Wln
throp died, on August 11 last, at the
Garden City Hotel, It was estimated then
that the value of her property would not
amount to more than a half million dol
lars', but It is now claimed the fortune will
amount to fully $3,000,000.
Mrs. "Wlnthrop left no nearer relatives
than cousins, and these numbered 26. Four
of them who are Interested in the con
test among other thlngu declared that If
the provisions of the will were carried out
the theological .seminary will Inherit more
than it te allowed by law to take, and it
Is this particular provision of the will that
is to be made the subject of attack.
Mrs. Wlnthrop at the time of her death
was S3 years old. She was the -widow of
Henry R, Wlnthrop, who died about ten
yeans ago, leaving her a fortune of moder
ate proportions, but It Increased In value
to such an extent during the last years of
her life as to completely astonish those
nearest to her.
Her city residence was at No. 33 West
Twentieth street. She had always been an
enthusiastic Presbyterian and most liberal
In her benevolences, particularly to the
Presbyterlan and St. Luke Hospitals. She
attended the First Presbyterian Church of
this city. Almost .all of her cousins were
mentioned In her will and codicils, their
bequests running between J10.0M and a
teyt hundred dollars.
After remembering other relatives for
smaller sums she bequeathed her entire
residuary fortune to the Theological Sem-
tnary of the Presbyterian Church at
fnnceton. Is. J. She appointed as execu
tors and trustees of her will the Rev.
George Nixon, who for 2S years has been
pastor of the Tremont Presbyterian
Church: Francis A. Stout and Richard T
Auchmuty. Pastor Dixon la the surviving
executor. He his been a friend of Mrs.
Wlnthrop for years.
There are four contestants who are rep
resented by Turner. Ralston & Horan of
thfa city, and Joseph M. Bedford, of Rlvcr
head. L. L They are: Mary C. Floyd, an
alleged Incompetent, who appeirs through
Elisabeth F. Slcard;JulIa D. F. Floyd
Grace Floyd and Sarah F. Turner. There
are relatives In London. England: South
Dakota. Tennessee, Connecticut. New Jer
sey, and In this state who are Interested In
the result of whit promises to be pro
longed and bitter controversy. Tho con
testants declare that the will is not the
free and. voluntary act of Mrs. Wlnthrop
ana that. -It was not subscribed in con
'Xoriltywlth the statutes of this state. '

ment to the address, expressing regret at
the fact that the speech made no ref
erence to the inefficiency of the British
navy. Sir William vehemently attacked
the Admiralty's policy in regard to ma
rine engine boilers, and declared that all
the ships fitted with Belleville boilers
were unreliable.
Mr. Arnold-Forster, Secretary of the
Admiralty, referring to the extravagant
statements of Sir William, said the Ad

Belleville boilers, and was now testing a
new type of cylindrical boilers, and fol

originals. Sir William Allan then with

Ilia Bjoloirr on the Leadership of Mr.
Scott Receives Applause.
In nominating Mr. Scott, Senator Smith
said In part:
"Gentlemen of the Legislative Assemblv
we navo ocen voting here every day of
this Legislative assembly, until 39 days
have passed. As we watch that pendulum
swing back and forth, each tick of It
approaches the fatal hour when it will be

cuaed of standing out, notwithstanding
the fact that It represents a great nart

that many members of the convention rec
ognize the claim modestly made by Mult

naming the next United States Senator.
None of tho names thus far put forth
seems to have touched the popular chord.
I rise, then, Mr. President, to make one
more effort In that direction, and I trust
that it will Impel you. gentlemen of this
convention, to come together in this final
effort In this 11th hour, and last hour of

absolutely necessary that we do come to

bringing forth the name of the man who
will Insplro confidence in every heart, the
name of the man who will Inspire confi
dence In every heart, not only In this con
vention but throughout the broad domin
ion of this great state.
"The name of the, man whom I shall
present to you has not been brought forth
through any efforts of his own. This
man has not sought the position. It Is
time in the history of Oregon. Mr. Presi
dent, that the office should try to seek the
man. Instead of the man seeking the of

In .seconding the nomination of Mr
Scott. Representative Malarkey said lti
part:
"I never cast a vote for a man whom I
did not thlp.k was well qualified to repre

upon all the great National questions, and
as to his Integrity It has never been ques

services that have been rendered and
about the ability at the different gentle

Mr. Scott has given good services, splen
did service, and In this day and age the
service rendered by a man In a newspaper
office who gives to 10,000 minds their views
on the great questions performs a greater
service, a more, far-reaching service than
can be rendered by any man speaking, no

A RACE FOR LIFE.
Spurring his jaded horse to renewed
efforts when the animal should be re
freshed with proper food and rest, is
about as sensible as prescribing nerve
tonics, .alcoholic compounds, coca mix
tures and cocktails which only spur oa
the already weakened nervous system.
Neither does it do to put the nerves
to sleep with narcotics. When you
feel worn-out, broken down, jaded, and
feel the effects of brain tire as well as
nerve weakness, sleeplessness and fa
tigue, take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, a tonic which will do you
lasting good, build you itp,.increase your
appetite and strength and improve the
condition of the Wood. When the blood
is impoverished the nerves feel the effect.

In the early "80s Mr. Fulton was elected
City Attorney, and in 1SSS was a Presiden
tial elector, carrying back to Washington
the vote of Oregon and casting It for
President Harrison. In ISM Mr. Fulton de
feated Hon. John, Kopp for State Senator,
and" In 1S33 he was again a candidate for
the Senate, his opponent being Hon. John
H. Smith. The battle which followed will
ever be remembered. Mr. Smith Is lm
mensely popular, and not until the ballots
were counted could any one predict the
result. Mr. Fulton was elected, but by a
narrow margin.
It Is Interesting In this connection to
note that Mr. Smith was offered all sorts
of Inducements to run against Mr. Fulton
In June of last year by opponents ot the
Clatsop leader, but ho declined on the
ground that he would not stand In Mr.
Fulton's way If he had a chance to go to
Washington. This act was. characteristic
of Mr. Smith, who Is the soul of honor and
Intensely loyal. Last year Mr. Fulton's
opponent was Dr. II. L. Henderson. Mr.
Fulton was President of the Senate at the
session of 1593. and again In 1901.
The new Senator married Miss Ada
Hobson, September S. 1S7S, and has one
child, a son. Mrs. Fulton Is a charming
matron, popular, gracious and tactful.

after midnight. Thousands of persons
men, women and children were on the

came through announcing the result there
went up a shout that was echoed and re
echoed from one end of the city to the
other. The big fire bell was vociferously
rung, and the church bells pealed forth
In glad acclaim. Boats whistled, guns
were fired and a regular Fourth of Julv

In a frenzy of Joy the wildly enthusias

was still on.

It is an undisputed fact that In these
days, under the reign of tho third French

elements for tho production of new fash

Vaudeville or at tho Gymnase as those

almost exclusively devoted to modern com
edy there la a general rush of fair Paris
lennes to the theater, not only on account
of the play, but mostly on account of the
gowns exhibited therein. And by theater
gowns I do not mean only those that are
on the stage, but also those that are
among t,he audience In front. French plays
never have a long run like In London, for
Instance. Fresh productions are continual

a financial success are often taken oft to
be replaced by others which are destined
to an artistic success only.
Tne tneatcr is the National Frpnrh
amusement. It replaces sport and outdoor
games so popular with the Anglo-Saxons.
Everybody goes to the theater regularly,
from the richest to the poorest. So that
during the first 10 performances of flm
neV play one may be always sure of view
ing the very latest French fashions in the
house. The really smart Parislenne does
not care, to see a play after it has run
more than about 10 days, and If the real
reason of this were sought It would ba

the performance "goes off" somewhat
after the first dozen performances, but
also because after the' first few "perform

To gain in fat is nearly always to gain

Dlttman has been a well-known charac

eral years. Ho Is S3 years old. and left
his native town of Dantzlc. Prussia, when
a boy. He Is employed in the saloon of
Otto F. Nespltal. 142 West Randolph
street.
On several occasions Dlttman has men
tioned that his relatives were quite rich.
and two married sisters are now residing
near Hamburg. Dlttman does not make
any open accusations against his surviv
ing relatives, but he Is convinced that his
mother, who died several months ago, left
a much larger estate than the amount of
his legacy would Indicate. He believes
that he Is entitled to at least K0.CG0. and
this he will strive to obtain should his
surmises prove correct.
The check received by Dlttman Is .on a
Hamburg bank, and made payable at the
First National Bank of Chicago. It Is
duly certified, and was forwarded by the
American Consul at Hamburg. After ex
hibiting It to a number of his friends, he
announced his determination to return It,
and to devote his energies hereafter to
working his way back to his native land.

HINTS FOR RIGHT LIVING.
One man who has done more to teach
the American people how to care for
their bodies than almost any other, is
Dr. R, V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., the
Author of the " Common Sense Medical
Adviser.". He says : " It is not the quan
tity of the food eaten which produces
strength and health (for some people
can keep strong on a very meagre diet),
but it is how much food is absorbed and
assimilated by the blood and carried to
nourish every organ of the body. It is,
therefore, vitally necessary for the body
that the stomach be in a healthy state.
If disease of the stomach, or what is
called "stomach trouble," prevents prop
er nutrition then the heart, liver, lungs,
and kidneys do not get proper food
they are not fed on rich red blood, and
in consequence, begin to show signs of
distress. Outwardly these signs may be
pimples and eruptions on skin, pale face,
sleepless nights, tired languid feelings,
or, by reason of the nerves not being fed
on puie blood, they become starved and
we receive a warning in the pain we call
neuralgia. Rheumatism, too, is a blood
disease. After years of practice and
study Dr. Pierce found that one of his
prescriptions made from the extracts of
several plants, invariably brought about
a tone to the system, an increase in the
red corpuscles of the blood by helping
the process of absorption of the healthy
elements in the food, casting out the
poisons from the blood. This Alterative
Extract he named "Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery."

"This is to certify that I have used Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and
think it's the grandest medicine in the
world," writes Mrs. V. M. Younfr, of Weir,
West Va. "I took down sick six months
ago and called in our physician and he
gave me medicine but I grew wors. He
said I had dyspepsia in its worst form. I
decided to try your medicine and began to
improve. I used five bottles, two of the

Some of the Southern leaders are mak

and the official records bear out the state
