Henry L. Haupt, president of the Mon tana Mine Loan & Investment company. has filed a suit In the Supreme court against the Pacific Express company for a writ of mandamus to compel the company to han dle his express. After citing the business transacted by the mining company, Mr. Haupt Includes In his brief an affidavit stating that the express company had on occasions refused to accept shipments from his company, and he believes that unless the supreme court compels ths company as a common carrier to accept all the express the mining company will pay for, that the express company will continue to refuse his shipments, to the annoyance and Incon venience of the mining company. On July 14, 1903, said Mr. Haupt, he gars the ex press company a package containing cer tificates of stock, prospectus and other mat ter and that the company refused to ship It out even after tendered ths money to pay lor it. ine sun was Drought In ths supreme court, said the writer of the brief, because otherwise suit would hare to be brought in ererr county In the state wherein the ex press company did business, consequently quicker action could ba had by coming to tns supreme court.

Miss Dunlap taught school In Kdsemont. 8. D., lsst year and while so employed formed th. acquaintance of Rev. A. B. Young, pastor of the Presbyterian church tn that city. The friendship between the young minister and Miss Dunlap ripened Into love and they became engaged to marry. Miss Dunlap left Tecumseh July 1 ostensi bly for the purpose of going to Lincoln to have her eyes treated, but It seems she did not tarry In the capital city. She went on .to Pittsburg, Pa., and was there mar ried to Rev. Mr. Toung. From Pittsburg they went Immediately to Washington and topped ta the leading hotel. A disturb ance was heard from their room during the night but the hotel people paid no atten tion to It. Upon their failure to arise the next morning, however, their room was forced open and a sight was beheld which was horrible In the extreme. The woman lay on the bed with two big holes tn her heart while the man was stretched out on th. floor with a similar wound. His hands were thrown over his head and In one of them he clutched a 32-callbre revolver the weapon which had done the fatal work. Rev. Mr. Young's parents, respected and well-to-do people who live in a little town Pennsylvania, wece Informed of the tragedy and took the remains of both the rtctlms to their horn, town and there burled them.

There i nothing so repulsive looking and disgusting as an old sore. Yon worry over it till the brain grows weary and work with it until the patience is exhausted, and the very sight of the old festering, sickly looking place makes you irritable, despondent and desperate. A chronic sore is the very best evidence that your blood is in an unhealthy and impoverished condition, that your constitution is breaking down under the effects of some serious disorder. The taxing of strong medicines, like mercury or potash, will sometimes so pollute and vitiate the blood and im pair the general system that the merest scratch or bruise results in obstinate non-healing sores of the most offensive character. Often an inherited taint breaks out in frightful eating sores upon the limbs or face in old age or middle life. Whenever a sore refuses to heal the blood is always at fault, and, while antiseptic washes, salves, soaps and powders can do much to keep down the inflammation and cleanse the sore, it will never heal permanently till the blood itself has been purified and the deadly germs and poisons destroyed, and with S. S. S. this can be accomplished the polluted biooa is punned ana invigorated, and when rich, pure blood is again circulating freely throughout the body the flesh around the old sore begins to take on a natural color, the discharge ol matter ceases and the place heals over. S. S. S. is both a blood purifier and tonic that puts your blood in order and at the same time tones up the system and builds up the general health.
