Pears’ People have no idea how crude and cruel soap can be. It takes off dirt. So far, so good; but what else does it do. It cuts the skin and frets the under-skin; makes red- ness and roughness and leads to worse. Not soap, but the alkali in it. Pears’ Soap has no free, al- kali in it. It neither reddens nor roughens the skin. It re- sponds to water instantly; wash- esand rinses off in a twinkling; is =~as gentle as strong; and the after-effect is every way good.

Pardee made his first | public utterance since the primaries at a meeting of the Alameda County delega- tion to the State convention, which was held this evening at his headquarters. In this address Dr. Pardee declared his confidence of securing the Republican nominztion for Governor, and said that the claims made by the Gage supporters were exaggerated. The meeting was called to-day and about two-thirds of the delegates attend- ed, together with a generous number of the doctor's supporters. The meeting was called to order by State Senator G. R. Lukens, and W. Frank Pierce was clected chairman of the evening. regular process of the selection of these gentlemen each took occasion to make Some complimentary remarks about Dr. Pardee, referring to the State convention of four years ago, when he was promised the nomination at the present time; of his services to the party since that time, and of the claims of Alameda County vpon the party. Dr. Pardee was called upon and made a statement of his claims and expecta- tions. He said: “1 believe that now is the time for Ala- meda County to secure the recognition that it deserves, and that there is an ex- cellent opportunity to do so. The claims | that are made by some of the other can- didates are undoubtedly exaggerated, and 1 know of cases where claims are made by others where 1 am assured of support. I believe that we can' win and that we will win, Alameda County should stand | tcgetber to secure recognition.” | these lines, and the meeting adjourned to meet at the close of the congressional con- vention, which will gather in this city on Monday next. At that time the dele- gation will be organized. The Pardee men in Alameda County | frankly say that they depend upon a break from Gage to their candidate to | accomplish the success that they predict. | They depend upon the expectation that Gage will not try to make another fight thaet would involve a heavy expenditure of money and that Pardee is the man around whom harmony will center. A statement was made at the Pardee beadquarters that Gage couid muster but fifty-nine_votes in his own county, and that Pardee had strength in delegations that were claimed for Gage. An effort will be made to organize the Alameda County delegation for business on Mon- next. Under the harmony agreement ardee will have a delegation from this county for himself untii he gives the word of release, but he will have to or- ganize the delegation and secure its con- { sent_before it can be traded. This will be the object of the meeting that will be held Monday. . Frank C.

CHICAGO, Aug. 13.—The police obtained (heir first clew of value in the Bartnoiin case to-night, and ‘developments that will go far toward solving the mystery are expected within twenty-four hours. Inspector Hunt late to-nignt found a | woman who declared that at daybreak on the morning following the night on which Miss Mitchell disappeared in com- pany with William Bartholin she saw Us- car Thompson, driver for a laundry com- pany and who is now held in custody by | the police; John Clafiy, the barn boss for | the same coneern, and a man wearing a | Panama hat and a Jdark sack coat at the | cetner of Seventy-fourth and State streets, where Minnie Mitchell's body was | feund. They were going back and forih in the weeas and acting in a suspicious manner. While the police have always contended that Thompson, who was a boarder in the house of Mrs. Bartholin, had knowl- edge of her death, they had pot suspected that he was in any the murder of Minnie Mitchell. The woman, however, w positive in her statement that she saw Thompson and | Claffy in company with a third man, at the time and place mentioned. She| knew both of them, and declared that | there was no chance of her being mis- | | taken. The description of the third man, so far as it describes anybody, is a de- scription of Bartholin the night he was last seen with the Mitchell girl. Officers were at once sent in search of Claffy, and he was taken into custody without difficulty. The police will to-mor- row talk to him. Thompson was then | called into the office of the inspector and informed that he had been seen with Claffy and Bartholin on the morning fol- | lowing the night of the killing of the | Mitchell girl. The information had a | marked effect upon Thompson, and he seemed for a moment on the point of collapse. He rallied, however, and de- clared that he was not there and knew nothing of the affair. The police pressed him hard, but he would not alter his statement, although he was plainly much worried. After the interview Inspector Hunt de- clared that he was more than ever im- | pressed with the opinion that Thompson Mrs. Bartholin and he thought that before long Thompson will weaken and tell what he knows. “I cannot give the name of the woman who gave me the information about the three men,” said the Inspector, “but I am positive that she told me the truth. She knows Thompson and Claffy personally, and there is not one chance in a thousand of her being mistaken. We had not sus- pected Claffy of being in the case at all, and her statement that she positively rec- should have been mistaken regarding Thompson, whom she knows as well as third man fills Bartholin so far as it goes, and T feel confident that we are on the right trail and will have the strings all in our bands before very iong.” The police during the day received a number of clews concerning the where- abouts of Bartholin, but none of them amounted to anything. They admitted to- night that they did not know what had become of him. Dr. Barrett Beers Dies.

As far as she could tell last night, wild with her grief, the baby had exhibited | no signs of sickness, He crowed at the | crowds as she rolled him along Eighth | street.

SEATTLE, Aug. 13.—Family quarrels | resulted in James Gibson, a local cigar Cealer, accompanying an officer of Sacra- mnto back to the California capital this | morning. Gibson is charged with grand larceny and the warrant on which the requisition papers were issued was sworn to by his sister-in-law. This is the second arrest to which Gib- | son has been subjected through the set- tlement of an estate of a brother, who died six years ago. His brother, on his deathbed in San Francisco, so Gibson claims, gave -him | $20,000 to take to his mother in Sacra- | mento. This - disposition of the bulk of the estate angered the widow, and she | caused Gibson's arrest. He was tried be- fore Judge Low and acquitted. Yesterday Deputy Sheriff Jacks of Sac- | ramento arrived in this city armed with | the necessary legal authority to take | Gibson back. Gibson agreed to accom- pany the officer without a legal fight, and | spent last night at home with his family | while the deputy registered at a down- town hotel. “It is nothing but a family quarre],” de- | clared Gibson. “I was arrested through spite work once before and beat the cas and will do it again. My sister-in-la who has since married a man named Johnson, has held a bitter grudge against me since my brother requested me to see | that his mother received the bulk of his ready money. I will give ample bonds for | my appearance, and will be back in the city by the first of the week.” Comes With Gift for Roosevelt. ! NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—Bishop O'Gor- man of Sioux Falls, S.

NEW YORK, Aug. 13—A Journal spe- cial from Paris says: Le Matin declares the German Emperor some time ago heard that the Duchess of Marlborough and Miss Gladys Deacon were on their way to Berlin, and immediately sent an aide-de-camp to the frontier with a letter addressed to the Duchess, the salient point of the letter being: “I don't want adventuresses in my empire.” On learning of the existence of such a letter, so Le Matin states, the Duchess of | Marlborough was furious .and _declared, | “My family is as good as the Hohenzol | erns.’ | i TR Plague at Odessa.

It was shown by the testimony of several witnesses that while the couple were living at 696 Geary street Stevens attacked his wife, tore her clothes off, struck her with his clenched fist and threatened to kill her with a butcher knife. It was also shown that Stevens frequently applied vile and fiithy language to his wife. Judge Seawell, who heard the case, awarded the custody of the 10-year-old child of the couple to Mrs. Stevens and made an order. direct- support .of the little one. The Stevenses were married at Kansas City in 1808, Lee Dorris, who was married to Pauline ago, secured a divorce yesterday in Judge | Seawell’s court. He brought suit on the ground of infidelity, and named one “Shorty” as co-respondent. Judge Seawell granted a divorce yester- day to Cora P. Kohlmoos from Frederick C. Kohlmoos. Mrs. Kohlmoos testified that her husband once beat her so cruelly that she was compelled to go to the Emergency Hospital for treatment. Her testimony was corroborated by that of several of her neighbors and friends. Divorces were also granted yesterday to Mary L. Simmons from Riley W. Sim- mons for desertion, J. F.

Aitken, filed an answer and cross-complaint to his wife’s chdrges yesterday, in which he denies that he has ever treated her cruelly. He accuses her of acting in an_injudicious manner with G. Chodrick. He alleges that despite numerous protests from him his wife insists upon receiving the atten- | tions of Chodrick and showing preference ' for his society. Aitken says he is a good and dutiful husband and has never done | anything to warrant such treatment. Ac- cording to his complaint Mrs. Aitken has sald that she ‘“‘thinks more of Chodrick's little finger than she does of her hus- band’s whole carcass,” and allows him to keep his collars, cuffs and neckties at the Aitken home, at 2108 Powell street. Aitken alleges that his wife is unfit to have the custody of their two children and asks 1he court to give them into his care. Suits for divorce were filed by Mary E. Anthony against Charles E.

These prizes will be in cash, and will amount to $13,000. It was understood, Charles L. Patton, chairman of the exec- utive committee, stated last evening, that the Merchants’ Association was to raise sufficlent money to cover the prizes, but only turned over This left a’ bai- ance of $9500 to be made uPA After hurrying around all day yesterday Chairman Patton, raised $5000 and stated that arrangements had been made to se- cure the additional $4000. The failure of the original plan made it look for a while like the drill would have to be postponed, but the money raised by Mr. Patton is sufficient to assure payment to the com- petitors. Just why the original plan failed is not thoroughly understood, but probably will be after explanations -are made, and probably heated discussions are_held to-day regarding the matter. { Licensed to Marry.

In a telegram to Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria, from Swinemund, dated August 10, the Emperor said; “I have just returned home and read ‘with deepest irdignation of the refusal of the Bavarian Diet to vote the sum for ‘which you ask for art. I hasten to ex- press my displeasure at the mean ingrat- itude displayed by this action to the house of Wittelsbach and your august person, which has ever been a shining medel in the support and advancement of art. I therefore beg to be allowed to place at your disposal the sum you re- quire, so that you may be enabled to ac- complish your task in the domain of art. LL] Prince Luitpold replied by telegram, ex- pressing his heartfelt thanks for the warm interest shown by the Emperor and his.magnanimous offer. The Prince Re- gent continued, however, that he was glad to say that through the public spir- ited liberality of a member of the Ba- varian Reichstag, who had placed the requisite sum at his disposal, the Govern- ment was already placed in a position to carry out the original designs. —_— WADDELL SHUTS OUT THE DE' TEAM Captain Lowe of Chicago National League Team Is Ordered Off the Field by Umpire Brown.

Important Work Accom- plished by Convention at Cincinnati. CINCINNATI, Aug. 13.—The convention of the International Typographical Union made many changes in its laws to-day. After providing yesterday for the oldest substitute getting the first vacancy, it to- day restricted the hours per week to a maximum of fifty-four, put evening pa- pers with Sunday editions on the seven- day basis and made many minor changes. An effort to include superintendents as well as foremen in the membership was made. It developed that there will strong opposition among the delegates to indorsing the newly organized interna- tional ladies’ auxiliary, aithough there is no opposition to local ladies’ auxiliaries. The convention became animated over an- “alleged factional fight” that was pre- cipitated by Indianapolis Union, and showed its conservatism in defending a proposition to prohibit any member from belonging to the militia. ‘The day was largely devoted to the ela- borate report of the committee on laws: The committee recommended that all unions put forth every effort to abolish the interchange of matter previously used in type or matrices and the convention changed It so as to read: “The practice is uniawful and shall not be permitted.” The proposition was recommitted after a iong discussion, with instructions for the law committee to construct such a law as would prevent the exchange of local mat- ter, but not interfere witn the syndicate matrices. The San Francisco Machine Tenders’ Asscciation asked for an inte: naticnal machinist vice president and al- lotments on_ the committees. This was rejected. All attempts to change from the referendum system in the election of officers were defeated. The proposition of West of Louisville to substitute plece work in daily news- paper offices in place of time work and time work in place of piece work in job i | finally defeated. The question of limited membership came up in a_proposition lim- | iting the rights of machine men and others than printers by debarring them from the operation of machines. The ac- tion of the Birmingham convention ex- tending equal rights to all allled crafts wuas sustained and the new proposition was lest. Nominations for the place of holding the convention next year were made by Briet- enstein for Asheville, N. C.; Ryan, for Newark, N. J.; Blakely for Richmond, Va.; by Bynum, for Washington, D. C., and Daveler for Salt Lake City. The con- test seems to be between Washington and | | | i tion In 1904 will be held at St. Louis. Nashville, Tenn., and Portland, Ore., gave notice that they would ask for the con- vention in 1905. | The visiting ladies effected a permanent | organization of the International Wom- an's Auxiliary. A constitution = was adopted. It embodied close relations with the I. T. U., with membership limited to relatives of the Typographical Unions. The convention of the International Stere- otypers’ and Electrotypers’ Unions to-day adopted an agreement to be presented to the United Typothetae. Music Hall, with a capacity of over 5000, was packed to-night at the celebration of the golaen jubilee of the International Typographical Union, which perfected its international organization in this city in 1852.

Now, when I came here in 1885, in 1886 and 187, {he rate of copper matte to Omaha was $17 a tony the cost of coal in Butte was 36 50 and $7 a ton. We built a road into Butte in 1388 and the first rate we made to St. Pauf and Minneapolis and the head of the lakes, which always. controls the Omaha rate, was'$8 per ton. What was the re- sult?
