In Wreckage Found.
SEATTLE, Dec. 2. The steamer Min
nesota, which arrived here today, reports
passing yesterday a four-masted schooner
high and dry on the Vancouver Iriand
beach between "Cape Beale and Pachena
Point. The shjp was of about 900 tons,
painted whit and looked like a Rolfe
liner. The Minnesota did not stop to In
vestigate the wreck, which lay with her
port side to the sea and appeared to have
been abandoned.
A special from Neah Bay says that a
good-sized ship's cabin, with nothing
to Identify It. came ashore near there.
Indians In that vicinity have picked
up 60 cases of oil and a quantity of
lumber.
The United States llfesaving tug
Snohomish left Port Townsend at 3
o'clock this afternoon to look for the
source of the wreckage that has been
ricked up.
Shipping men think the stranded
schooner is the schooner Soque.l, which
went on the beach near Cape Beale on
January 8 last. Her hulk is a conspicu
ous object. The Soquel answers in every
particular the description of the wreck
seen by the Minnesota.
The wreckage found near Carmanah
Point, B. C, can be accounted for by
the recent storm, which might have made
it desirable for some small vessel to
jettison a part of her cargo. Similar
wreckage has come ashore near the
mouth of Quillayute River, south of Cape
Flattery.

PETRIFIED TILL SHE DIES
Woman Resembles Marble When
Death Ends Suffering.
New Orleans. Death from gradual
petrification, the body slowly hardening
for a year, until the flesh became as
adamant as marble and proof against
incisions, was the report made in the
case of Mrs. . Catherine Barrow. 46 years
old. of Rosedale, La., who succumbed In
the Charity. Hospital.
. Physicians were unable to diagnose the
malady, but it Is believed the woman
was afflicted with a form of skin disease
Involving all the tissues of the body.
Medical scientists expressed the belief
that embalming was unnecessary and
that the woman's relatives might retain
the corpse perpetually.
CROW TALKS FIVE WORDS
"Billy. Come Milk the Cows," Vo
cabulary of Tame Bird.
Hamden Junction. O. At South Webster
lives William McGowan. owner of a tame
' crow that has discarded the croaking
note and adopted a vocabulary that
doesn't grate so harshly upon the tym
panum. It grew to like McGowan so
well that it began to call him "Billy,"
a familiarity it still persists in.
There is also a cow on the premises,
and one evening the crowd heard the
invitation. "Come, milk the cow," since
which time, just as the sun begins to
sink behind the western hi!l. the crow
student calls out. "Oome, milk the cow,"
and peeks repeating until that duty Is
performed.

abouts are no longer a mystery. The
Arctic explorer was located yesterday at
Muldoon's farm, where he is undergoing
the ex-wrestler's athletic cure.
Jt has been known here that Cook had
sought seclusion in a health resort, but
not until many of the prominent watering
.places were visited did the explorers after
Cook think of -inquiring for him at Mul
doon's. ,
Muldoon denies that Cook is there, at
least saying that if he is there he en
tered under an assumed name.

REPLY BRIEF FILED
Attorney-General Takes Up
Supreme Court Issue.
INCREASE IS QUESTIONED
Argument Is That Subject Is Judi
cial, Not Political, and Must Be
Determined by Court Iejjality
Conrt's Position Not Point.
SALEM, Or., Dec. 2. (Special.) What
probably . will be the last broadside be
fore the final decision of the" court in
the case of the State vs. Sam Cochran,
was fired today by Attorney-General
Crawford and his associates, when a re
ply brief was filed in the office of the
clerk of the Supreme Court.
It is argued that "after a court Has
been established by the constitution of a
state, and the number of Justices who
shall constitute such court fixed by the
original act creating the court, whether
an act of the legislative assembly or the
state. Increasing the number of such
Justices beyond the number fixed by the
constitution contravenes the provisions of
that instrument, is a judicial and not a
political question, and It Is the sole
province and duty of the courts to de
termine whether such legislative act Is
repugnant to any part of the constitu
tion." Cooley Cited for Authority.
In support of this contention. Judge
Cooley and other, "authorities are cited.
The brief asserts that the respondent
does not question the legal existence of
the Supreme Court, but challenges the
authority of the Legislature to add to
the number of Justices.
The author of the brief admits that
there is need for more than three Jus
tices, and adds: "But expediency can
not be urged as an excuse for a viola
tion of the constitution." It Is main
tained that chapter 50. laws of 1909, con
travenes the provisions of section 10 of
article 7 of the Oregon Constitution. "A
Supreme Court of three Is created. If
we can have more than three Justices un
der that declaration, why can we not
have more courts under section 1, and
invest them with Judicial powers?
Court's Power Questioned.
The court is not at liberty to read any
thing into the law whica Js not plainly
intended to be there. . . . Section 10,
article 7, is declaratory and positive in
its terms, and clearly contains an inhi
bition against any change in it."
The brief is signed by George J. Cam
eron. Prosecuting Attorney; J. H. Page,
deputy; I. H. Van Winkle. Assistant Attorney-General;
A. M. Crawford, Attorney-General:
A. King Wilson.

Coffman Is Defendant.
CHEHALIS, Wash., Dec 2. (Special)
The International Fiber Company, re
cently organized at Seattle, has brought!
suit against N. B. Coffman. William
.West and L. J. Sticklin, three of the
leading citizens of Chehalis, for breach
of contract. The trouble arises out of
an option given to the company by
the local owners of the old flax fac
tory site, and sale of which has re
cently been made to Messrs. Pldduck
and Yule of Seattle, representing an
other flax fiber manufacturing corporation.
Fritz Kreisler, Violin
Wizard, in Concert
BT JOSEPH ,M. QUENTIN.
IT is idle to speak of phenomenal fin
gering, double-stopping and whistling,
zephyr-wafted harmonics or to apply
cold, mathematical reasoning In writing
of the art of Fritz Kreisler. violinist. The
phrase "world-genius" should be used.
Instead.
This is the third time that Kreisler has
played la concert in this city, and we
therefore have had ample time to meas
ure nis worth as an artist.
Last night's concert at the Bungalow
Theater only emphasized the ' fact that
Kreisler not only retaains his place in
the front rank of the great violinists of
today, but that he belongs to that magic
band of artists' of whom Paganini and
Olo Bull form the fonntainhead.
Mischa Elmkn plays with blazing eyes
and emotional face turned in a tempest
of passion toward his audience, and he
appeals with the art spectacle of a great
tragedian swaying a multitude. Kreisler,
well-built. well-fed, military-looking,
with dignified face and meln. and hair
of ordinary length, forgets his audience
aa soon as he draws his bow over his
violin, and keeps his eyes glued to the
instrument Just as a parent .watches the
utterance of a favorite child.
Kreisler Is also a. magical player, so
much so that it is a lucky thing for him
that he isn't living la what are alleged
to be the good old days at Salem. Mass.,
when the knowing ones burned clever
folk for witchcraft and the black art gen
erally. Kreisler won 16 recalls in the course of
the evening. This gives an idea of the
genuine enthusiasm with which the mu-
"cal crowd greeted him. It is notable
; at he won his greatest triumphs in the
numbers where the strings of his violin
were muted, and these selections ap
pealed by their gentle spirituality rather
than by intellectual power. The showiest
number was the Vieuxtemps concerto in
F sharp minor, the rendition of which
was marked by wonderfully sustained
harmonics and dazzling technique, cul
minating with a whirlwind of passion.
It Is not necessary to criticise the pro
gramme in' detail. Kreisler played every
number as announced except that he sub
stituted for the Friedeman Bach number
a dainty, airy thought by Sulzer. The
only encores- he played he could have ac
cepted a dozen if he desired were a
"Venice Caprice." by himself, and "Song
Without Words," by Tschaikowsky.
The piano accompanist was Haddon
Squire; an Englishman, who played here
before with the same artistic, self-denv-ing
personality. The concert was under
the direction of Lois Slfeer-Wynn Coman.
Kreisler has sold a Stradivarius violin
he owned to a Chicago house, and al
though the one on which he played last
night wasn't a Strad. it was almost as
valuable and satisfied with its golden
tone.

When The
Stomach Stops
"Working Properly, Because There Is
wina in it, Use Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets to Set It Going Again.
A Trial Box Tree.
THE DOCTORS call It flatulency, but
unprofessional folks know it as "wind
on the stomach." and a most distress
ing state of things it is. It is a serious
condition of thie great motor organ.
Always annoying and painful in the
extreme, at times often leading to bad
and fatal results. The stomach em
barrassed and hampered with wind,
cannot take care of Its food iproperly
and Indigestion follows, and this has a
train too appalling to enumerate. The
entire system is implicated made an
active or passive factor in this trouble
and life soon becomes a. questionable
boon.
ALL THIS IS EXPLAINED in doctor
books: how undigested food causes
gasses by fermentation and fomenta
tion in which process some essential
fluids are destroyed burnt up wasted
by chemical action, followed by defec
tive nutrition and the distribution through
the alimentary tract oi chemically wrong
elements and as a consequeDca the stom
ach and entire system is starved. Plenty
of food, you see, but spoilt in preparation
and worse than worthless.
A DERANGED STOMACH Is the epi
tome of evil; nothing too bad to ema
nate from it. but the gas it generates
is probably its worst primary effect and
the only way to do away with this Is to
remove the cause. STUART'S DYSPEP
SIA TABLETS go to the root of this
trouble. They attack the gas-making
foods and render them harmless. Flatu
lency or wind on the stomach simply can
not exist -where these powerful and wonder-working
little tablets are In evidence
THBY WERE MADE for this very pur
pose to attack gas-making foods and con
vert them into proper nutriment. This is
their province and office. A whole fcook
could be written about.them and then not
all told that might be told with profit to
sufferers from this painful disease, dys
pepsia. It wo. Id mention the years of
patient and expensive experiment iif effort
to arrive at- this result of failures In
numerable and at last success. It would
make mention of the different stomach
corrective that enter into this tablet and
make it faithfully represent all.
STUART S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS are
not alone intended for the sick, but well
folks as well; for the person who craves
hearty foods and wants to eat heartily
and run no risk of bad effects, they act
like a charm and make eating and diges
tion a delight and pleasure. They keep
the stomach active and energetic and able
and willing to do extra work without spe
cial labor or effort. Don't forget this
Well people are often neglected, but the
STUART DYSPEPSIA TABLETS have
them in mind.
A FREE TRIAL PACKAGE will be
sent, any one who -wants to know Just
what they are, how they look and taste;
before beginning treatment with them.
After this go to the drug store for them:
everywhere, here or at home, they are 50
cents a box and by getting them at home
you will save time and postage. Your doc
tor will prescribe them; they say there
are 40.000 doctors using them, but when
you know what is the matter of yourself,
why, go to the expense of a prescription?
