SCALY ECZEMA
ALL OVER BODY
Eruptions Appeared on Chest, and
Face and Neck Were All Broken
Out Scales and Crusts Formed
Iowa Lady Has Great Faith
in Cuticura Remedies for Skin
Diseases.
ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CUTICURA
"I had an eruption appear on my
chest and body and extend upwards
and downwards, so that my neck and
face were all broken out; also my arms
and the lower limits an fur an the knees.
I at first thought it was prickly heat.
But soon scales or crusts formed where
the breaking out was. Instead of going
to a physician, I purchased a complete
treatment of the Cuticura Remedies, in
wliich I had great faith, and all was
satisfactory. A year or two later the
eruption appeared again, only a little
lower; but before it had time to spread
I procured another supply of the Cuti
cura Remedies, and continued their use
until the cure was complete. It is now
five years since the lust attack, and
have not seen any signs of a return. I
have taken about three bottles of the
Cuticura Resolvent, and do not know
how much of the Soap or Ointment, as
I always keep them with me; probably
one half doien of each.
" I decided to give the Cuticura Rem
edies a trial after I had seen the results
of their treatment of eczema on an
infant belonging to one of our neigh
bors. The parent took the child to the
nearest physician, but his treatment did
no good. So they procured the Cuticura
Remedies and cured her with them.
When they began using Cuticura Rem
edies her face was terribly disfigured
with fres, but she was entirely cured,
for I saw the same child at the age of
five years, and her mother told me the
eczema had never broken out since. I
have more faith in Cuticura Remedies
for skin diseases than anything I know
of. I am, respectfully yours, Emma E.
Wilson, Liscomb, Iowa, Oct. 1, 1905."

1 HONOLULU'S FINE HARBOR.
United States Should Fortify One of
Its Defenses.
"Pearl harbor, near Honolulu, one
of the finest harbors In the Pacific
ocean, should be dredged and fortl.
fled by the United Rtutes government
If It Intends to retain Its prestige In
the Pacific," said John L. McCan
dless, of Pittsburg, a guest of the
Oxford hotel, who Is one his way to
his home after an extended tour of
fur eastern countries, says the Den
ver Post.
"The harbor Is midway between the
western coast of America and the
Philippine possessions of this country
and could easily be put In such shape
that It would accommodate a fleet
twice as large as the entire naval
strength of the United States. Ha
waii should be a powerful factor In
the system of national defense and
as Penrl harbor Is adapted by nature
for the needs of a great naval base It
would become one of the strategic
outposts In the Pacific.
"The future of America In both the
naval and commercial sense, will he
centered largely In the Pacific ocean.
When the Panama canal Is finished a
great Impetus will be given to Pacific
shipping and the American govern
ment will have to meet many ques
tions that will arise In that part of
the globe.
"I do not think there Is much dan
ger of Philippine sugar being import
ed Into this country tariff or no tar
iff, In quantities to destroy the sugar
beet Industry. There Is a good field
In the far east for all the sugar that
can be manufactured there. In Ha
waii alt the sugar manufactured at
home Is used In the Islands, and In
addition to this a considerable quan
tity Ib Imported from America."
Mr. McCandless is engaged In the
hanking business In Pittsburg, and
took the trip to Uncle Sam's far east
ern possessions on the advice of his
physicians. His health Is now great
ly Improved. He Intends to settle up
his affairs in Pennsylvania and return
to Honolulu, which he declared "the
most Ideal spot In the world to live
in."
SECOND GAME OF BASKET-BALL.
High School anil Commercial Club
Play Tonight.
This evening the second game of
basket-ball between the high school
and Commercial association teams will
be played in the club gymnasium, In
stead of at the high school as was
the first game. A slight admission
will be charged.
Since the high school boys won In
the former contest, they are now
anxious to maintain their record.
Consequently they will put up the
best game possible. Their line-up
will be as follows: Strlcklln and
Penland, forwards; Storle, center;
Thompson and Turner, guards; Strand
and Dickson, subs.
There seems to be some doubt as
to the make-up of the club team
owing to the failure of some of the
players to appear at practice. How
ever, a strong teanr will doubtless be
on the floor.
Praise the JitaiicMO.
I have never seen a more quiet,
orderly or self-restrained people than
the Japanese. I have visited all of
the larger cities and several of the
smaller ones, in all parts of the Is
lands; have mingled In the crowds
that assembled at Toklo and at Yoko
hama at the time of the reception to
Togo, and during the naval review;
have ridden through the streets In
daytime and at night, and have
walked when the entire street was a
mass of humanity. I have not seen
one drunken native or witnessed a
fight or altercation of any kind. This
Is the more remarkable when It Is re
membered that these have been gala
days, when the entire population
turned out to display Its patriotism
and to enjoy a vacation. William
Jennings Bryan.

misled Blakeley and Taylor, or that
Blakeley and Taylor were In with him
and knew all about It.'
CI targes Grandstand Plajr.
"I made that statement last Mon
day morning, and how can the attor
neys for the defense say they were
surprised, when we undertook to sim
ply do what I had stated I would do?
What they have been doing is simply
'grandstand play." "
Colonel Raley then replied that the
giving of the notice In the opening
statement of the district attorney was
unfair, as they should have known of
the fact several months ago.
Judge Fee then stated that he had
not noticed Mr. Phelps' reference to
the point In his opening statement,
and that he could not now recall It.
Echo of Yesterday's Fight.
A somewhat heated controversy
then took place between Judge Fee
and the district attorney, which was
In the nature of an echo of yester
day's exciting scrimmage. Judge Fee
declared he had been furnished with
the report for the Taylor term, and
understood the one for Blakeley's ad
ministration was not to be brought
up. He declared he should have been
given both reports, and that he had
been misled, though, as to whether
such was by design or otherwise,
was a matter between the district at
torney and himself.
District Attorney Phelps then de
fended himself upon the charge of
misleading the counsel, saying he cer
tainly had not done so Intentionally,
and that Judge Fee had no right to
rave. In giving the defendant's attor
neys the report for the Taylor term
he said he merely acted out of cour
tesy, and was not required to do so.
Judge Fee still Insisted he had been
misled, and that he understood the
Blakeley report was not to come up.
"Do you say I said that?" asked
the district attorney with considerable
anger.
"I say I understood it," replied
Judge Fee.
"Oh, well," exclaimed Mr. Phelps.
Motion for Delay Denied.
Judge Ellis then stated that It was
not for the court to say what had
passed between the attorneys, but
that it was the rule that the defend
ant should come prepared to meet
anything competent that was brought
against him. Also, he Inferred that
Davis had suffilcent knowledge of
the Blakeley affairs to suffice for his
attorneys. Consequently, he denied
the motion for delay.
Judge Fee then said he desired
time In which to prepare some affi
davits, and consequently an adjourn
ment was taken until 2 p. m.
Mr. Taylor was then called and put
upon the stand to Identify the books
used during the Blakeley term. The
counsel for the defendant now ob
jected to the entering of these books
and the court overruled the objection,
and the work went forward with the
marking of the exhibits.
State Will Finish Tomorrow.
This afternoon District Attorney
Phelps stated thnt the prosecution
will easily finish Its case by tomorrow
night, unless the cross-examinations
should be unusually lengthy. As to
how much time will be consumed by
the defense Is problematical but It Is
presumed that they will use fully as
much as the state, if not more.
Slurlff Taylor Recalled.
After the work of marking the
books of the Blakeley administration
this afternoon and entering them as
exhibits in the evidence. Sheriff T. D,
Taylor was recalled and said that ir
conversation with C. P. Davis In
Nolte's saloon In this city, that Davis
denied that a shortage existed In the
Blakeley administration, but luter In
the sheriff's office Davis admitted to
Taylor that a shortage of about $3000
wan found In the Blakley books.
An 3:9(i trr afternoon Expert Buch
anan, was recalled and at time of go
ing1 So press was upon the witness
standi giving testimony as to the books
,of the E kike ley term.
COtfHT ADHERES TO POSITION.
Second Attempt to Surure Extension
of Time Was Fruitiest.
As soon as court was called to or
der this afternoon at 2 o'clock Juthjc
Fee came forward with three deposi
tions: one from himself, one from C.
P. Davis, and one from his associate.
Colonel Raley.
The sworn statement of Davis set
up that he was the defendant named
In. rfte Information, and that he had
Dcen in the sheriff's office from July,
.02; to July, '05, that he had had.
charge of the books of the office
durttig that time nnd that there weruJ
also several deputies employed dur
ing that time. There had been thous
ands of entries made upon the bookts
and It would take a large force to
check up the books. That he had.nt
been given a report of the experts: an.
the books of the Blakeley administra
tion, and had had no chance to cover
the books, documents and receipts.
That he had no funds with whicai to
employ aid In examining the books,
and would have to do it himself? with
the assistance of the members f his
family. It would require two. weeks
to do this work, and he hur not
known before that the district attor
ney had Intended to use these books
as evidence against him. That if he
had known It, he would have- asked
for a longer time within which to
make an examination, concluding with
the statement that he waa not asking
time for the purpose of delaying the
prosecution.
Fee Could Not Get Report.
The next deposition read was that
of Judge Fee. He stated that he de
sired a copy of the report, but that
the district attorney refused to de
liver it to him or to the defendant
on the ground that It wak not a pub
lic document, but that he finally ob
tained from him a copy of the report
for Taylor's administration. He fur
ther stated that he did not know that
the books of the Blakeley administra
tion were to be put In evidence, and
that he had had no opportunity to ex
amine the report since It was not
filed until January 6, 1906. There
fore, he said, he could not continue
until he had had an opportunity to
examine the books. It was not his
wish to hinder or delay the case fur
ther than might be necessary. The
deposition further stated that he had
been misled by the action of the dis
trict attorney, so that he had request
ed the defendant to make an examin
ation simply of the books of the Tay
lor administration.
Colonel Raley stated much the
same matter as had Judge Fee, and
that they could not go on with the
defense without preparation.
After reading these depositions Fee
spoke In behalf of extending the time
for two weeks, that they might make
the desired examination.
A very friendly spirit seemed to
exist betwten the attorneys during
the afternoon session, and the spirit
of acrimony that had been present
most of the time preceding was laid
aside.
"I exceedingly dislike to presume
against my friend, the district attor
ney," said Judge Fee, "and I make
no reflection upon the attorney's
honesty, but I do feel that under these
circumstances, whether he acted wil
fully or Innocently, that we should be
granted time."
Mr. Phelps now replied, "And I
want to thank Judge Fee for his ex
pressions of confidence In me and his
good intentions. I wish ,to state,
however, that we will only Introduce
certain Items, and that It will not be
necessary to make an examination of
the books as an explanation can be
made on cross-examination. The
books have been In the clerk's of
fice and the defense had the oppor
tunity to examine them. I do not
think we are depriving the defendant
of any substantial right."
Judge Ellis then denied the motion
for two weeks' time, stating that both
attorneys had agreed upon the day of
trial, and he had afterwards granted
the defense an extension of time In
which to further examine the books.

RECLAIM 100,000 ACRES.
Big Loft River Project Now Under
Way in Idaho.
Within the next few days the Big
Lost River Land & Irrigation com
pany will file application with the
state land board for the segregation
of 100,000 acres of barren land In
Blaine county under the Carey act,
says the Boise Statesman. The com
pany has under way a project for the
Irrigation of this acreage.
The land Is In the east portion of
Blaine county about 40 miles above
Minidoka. The project. If carried out,
will mean a great deal to that section
of country. There is about 50,000
acres of land In the valley already
under Irrigation, and with 100,000
acres more it will provide homes for
thousands of people.
According to T. W. Thomas, secre
tary and manager of the Big Lost
River Land & Irrigation company, It
Is the purpose of the company to put
In a 100-foot dam In the Big Lost
river about four miles above Mackay,
which will store enough water to Ir
rigate 100,000 acres. The dam will
be above all the sinks of the river
and at a point where there is a good
supply of water. The water that Is
already being used from the river for
Irrigation purposes Is being taken out
at different points between the sinks.
The rights of those people, said Mr.
Thomas, will be readjusted In a sat
isfactory manner to them.
Work was commenced on the prop
osition in May of last year and, said
Mr. Thomas, it is expected to have all
the preliminary work finished by May
of this year, when the company will
be ready for actual work. The en
gineer for the company, A. P. Adair,
Is expected in this morning from the
Big Lost river country with his final
surveys.
The land which it is proposed to
irrigate, said Mr. Thomas, is very fa
vorably situated. It Is excellent soil,
he said, for sugar beet raising and al
so for grain. Not many kinds of fruit
can be raised there although winter
apples will do fine. The surrounding
hills are covered with timber which
may be easily reached for fuel, etc.
The Salmon river branch of the Short
Line railroad runs through the land
and If a main line Is built from Wyo
ming It will almost have to traverse
the tract.
Indigestion Is easily overcome by
the use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, be
cause this remedy digests what you
eat and gives the stomach a rest
allows it to recuperate and grow
strong again. Kodol relieves Indiges
tion, belching of gas, sour -tinmen,
heartburn, etc., and enables the di
gestive organs to transform all foods
into the kind of rich red blood that
makes health and strength. Sold by
