The advantages of local delivery especlally in stoves should not be underestimated after the | experience derived from these two ship-| ments, for with delivery here every stove | can be placed on transports in good con- | dition, delivered and used by the army for | the purposes for which it was intended. a result which has not been acomplished in making shipments from the East. “‘Another circumstance connected with | these shipments that does not tend to les- sen the evil is the fact that tQe facilities | of the transport service on the Pacific being limited and while all the energies | of the q 8 irtment are being directed toward providing transpor- | tation for men and supplies destined for the Philippines the use of twenty to twen- ty-five thousand cubic feet of ce on for the carriage of stoves that are known hefore departure from this port to be entirely useless for army purposes would seem to be at least a fail- ure to provide for the best interests of the service. We trust that the quartermas- ter's department is fully convinced of the futility of these shipments from Eastern | points, and while we have no intention or desire’ to place ourselves in a position where it may be inferred that we pro- | pose to dictate to the gquartermas department how it shall conduct fts bu s, we do believe that you should know that the above facts are well known here and that their recurrence will not have a tendency to elevate the morale or ef- ficiency of the service in the public mind.” | ——— e - | | HOLLY PARK MUST WAIT. ed in killing her husband, Char Mrs Roben, sister of the pris- Petition of Property-Owners for Im- SR B aie: oner Mrs. Kopp’s visit to her i ot homeé lay night with the story of provements Denied.

Very few pe - | ple realize the importance of a health igestion, it is the mainspring of happiness in this life. The person with perfect digestion knows nothing of ner- vousness, sleeplessness, headaches and the many disagreeable symptoms of a | disordered stomach. This new remedy | is not a secret patent medicine, recom- mended to cure everything under the | sun, but is purely and simply a stom- ach remedy composed of vegetable es- | sences, fruit saits, pure pepsin, bis muth and golden seal. These valuab! remedies are combined in the form of | | pleasant tasting tablets and now sold by druggists everywhere, under the name of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets. A scientific experiment made with these { tablets proved that one grain of the di- | stive principle would digest3000times | s own weight of eggs, meat or similar | wholesome food. The whole trouble | with dyspeptics is the fact their stom- | Iis are too weak to digest the foo. ten; these tablets digest the food, | the stomach, nourish the body and give the stomach time to recover res thus its natural condition, when they are no | longer required.

MORPHINE IN HIS STOMACH | CHEMIST CRACKBON GIVES pam. | AGING TESTIMONY. | Collapse of the Accused for Want of | Cocaine Occurs During the In- quest and the Drug Is Ad- ministered. O o A Coroner’s jury vesterday brought in a verdict charging Dr. C. €. J. Wachen- dorf with the murder of John Kehlenbeck, who died under suspicious circumstances last Tuesday night in a lodging house at 3151 Jessie street. The medical and chem- fcal testimony was to the effect that death did not occur from dis or from what are called natural causes; and that there was a sufficient quantity of unab- sorbed morphine in the dead man’s stom- ach to have caused death. Chemist L. §. Crackbon appeared before the jury and told them that he had found a large quantity of morphine in Kehlenbeck's stomach. This was surplus, or unabsorbed. and it was positive proof that the poison in the system had caused the death of Kehlenbeck and that the drug had been administered through the | mouth. The chemist had not completed the quantitative analy and would not be | able to do so until this evening, so that he unable to state the quantity in the | stomach or whether any other poison had been used. Dr. Zabala's testimony corroborated the | poison theor: He had made an autopsy could find no cause for death in the con- ditfon of the organs and could ascribe Kchlenbeck’s demise to poison onl. The other witnesses told nothing that had not been published already. It wa roved that Wachendorf had been admi stering medicine: ly poisons in allo- pathic doses, to the deceased. i While the inquest was in progress Wa- chendorf, who occupled a seat in the rear of the room, collapsed. He was taken into the private office of the Coroner, where he fainted away, but was brought | back to consclousness by Deputy Coruaer | Mogan. Wachendorf pleaded piteously for an injecton of cocaine.
