trial and conviction of Senator Burton be
fore Judge Adsms was six months in the
Iron county jail and to pay a fine of
15.000. On appeal the verdict was re
versed by the United States supreme court.
When court convened today the attorneys
for Senator Burton secured an additional
two hours in which to complete their pe
tition for a writ of 'error, upon which to
base the appeal to the United States su
preme court. The application for a new
trial was overruled by Judge Vandevanter
Immediately upon the reconvening of court.
A motion In arrest of judgment was also
overruled and the United States district at
torney then moved that sentence be pro
nounced. Has TCothlnB- to ' Say.
Judge Vandevanter ordered the defendant
to stand up. Senator Burton remained
standing by the side of the table occupied
by his counsel and did not approach di
rectly In front of the bar as Is customary.
Judge Vandevanter said:
"Tou have been present during the prog
ress of this trial and have heard the ver
dict rendered by the Jury. Have you any
thing to sayT"
Senator Burton, standing pale and mo
tionless with his eyes fixed unwaveringly
upon the court, replied: "Nothing."
Judge Vandevanter then pronounced the
formal sentence. He said that the penalty
of imprisonment for six months and the
fine of 12,500 was imposed on count six,
which charged him with 'having agreed to
accept compensation, and sentence of six
months' Imprisonment alone was Imposed
on count seven, charging that he received
compensation.
In regard to counts 1, l and S. Judge
Vandevanter said that as they involved
the same transaction as sount six, no sep
arate judgment, was Imposed, and that
as count 1 was the earns as count 7 no
separate judgment, was . Imposed .on that
Count. Counts 4 and 6 were quashed be
fore the trial began.
After Benator Burton had been com
mitted to the care of the marshal. Attorney
Lehmann submitted his petition for a
writ ot error, which was allowed. Mr.
Lehmann then asked that the writ of error
upon the acceptance by the court ot a
proper bond should operate as a stay ot
execution of sentence. This was allowed
by the court, who announced that the bond
for $6,000 offered by Senator Burton as
personal and R. C. Kerens of St. Louis
as surety was approved.
Senator Burton, on advice of counsel, re
fuses to make any statement to the press.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 29. (Special.) Insurance
Deputy Pierce of the state auditor's office
believes that the decision of the United
States supreme court sustaining the Iowa
statute against Insurance compacts will
establish the validity ot the Nebraska en
actment of 1897, which was held to be un
constitutional In 1901 by Judge McPherson,
whose decision with reference to the Iowa
law has Just been reversed.
The scope of the two acts Is much the
same. The decision In the Nebraska case
covered the main points touched in the
Iowa case, the Interference with the free
dom ot contract, guaranteed by the United
States constitution. The principal objec
tions urged by Judge McPherson to the
Nebraska act waa In Its attempt to pre
vent compacts as to agents' commissions
and methods of transacting business. That
Is also the principal point discussed In his
opinion In the Iowa case.
The Nebraska decision was rendered In
1901 and carried with it a permanent In
junction, restraining the auditor of state
from enforcing the provisions of the act.
The suit was brought against John F. Cor
nell, who was then- In that office. The
Niagara Insurance company was the plaln
tlfT, but several other large fire Insurance
companies were Interested in the suit. In
the petition It was alleged that the en
forcement of the act would deprive the
companies of the valuable business which
they had built up since coming into the
state and it was charged that only through
the use of the equity power of the court
In the Issuance of an Injunction could Irre
parable Injury be prevented. The Iowa
case, that of the Greenwich Fire Insur
ance Company against Auditor Carroll,
took the same course.
The Nebraska act which Pierce proposes,
with the aid of the attorney general, to re
vive provides:
Any combination or agreement made or
entered into between two or more fire In
surance eompnnles insuring property
against casualties from the elements, trans
acting business within this state, or be
tween the officers, agents or employes of
such companies, relating to the rates to be
charged for Insurance, the amount of com
missions to be allowed agents for procuring
Insurance or the manner of transacting the
business of fire Insurance within this state,
is hereby declared to be unlawful, and any
such company, officer or ajrent violating
this provision shall be guilty of a misde
meanor, and on conviction thereof, In any
court having Jurisdiction, shall pay a
penalty of not lens than $100 nor more than
T00 for each offense, to be recovered for
the use of the permanent school fund In the
name of the state.
The same act contains a provision re
quiring the auditor to bring before him
persons suspected of violations of the act
and to Investigate complaints made by two
or more residents. In the event that any
company Is found guilty of the practices
prohibited by the statute, the auditor Is re
quired to revoke the license and the erring
concern is not to be permitted to do busi
ness in the state within a year from the
time of revocation.
Provision Is made for an appeal from the
decision of the auditor to the district court
and the statements of persons under ex
amination by the auditor are not to be used
against them In criminal prosecutions.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal Is
the safest and most efficient disinfectant
and purifier in nature, but few realize Its
value when taken Into the human system
for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you
take of It the better; It is not a drug at
all, but simply absorbs the gases and im
purities always present In the stomach and
intestines and carries them out ot the
system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok
ing, drinking or after eating onions and
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion. It whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminently
saf cathartic
It absorbs the Injurious gases which col
lect In the stomach and bowels; It disin
fect the mouth and throat from the poison
of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form or
another, but probably the best charcoal
and the mqst for the money Is In Stuart s
Charcoal Losenges. They are composed of
the finest powdered willow charcoal and
oilier narmiesa antiseptics in tablet form,
or. rather, in the form of large, p.eaaant
tasting losenges, tb charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The dally use of these losenges will soon

he had arrested at Clay Center several
months ago under the suspicion that they
were dynamiters. At that time he secured
photographs of the men and the pictures

the four men now in the city Jail. The

One of the men arrested had In his pocket

The trustees of the New York
State Hospital for Incipient Pul

statistics for the first year, which is
as follows: There ware admitted
aoj patients, more than half of
whom were incipient!. There were
no deaths. Of the 105 patients dis
charged, fifty-two were apparently
recovered. Twenty-six arrested cases
are reported- Sixteen improved,
while eleven left without any im

mainly of outdoor air, wholesome

There is another treatment perhaps
almost as' good. Stay home, use

The ex-Oovernor of Oregon Is an ardem
admirer of Peruna. He keeps It contlnt
ally In the house. A letter received fron
him reads as follows:
State of Oregon,
Executive Department.
Th Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, O.I
Dear Sirs I have bad occasion t
nae your tVrnna melicinf In my fartv
lly for colds, and it proved to be ai
excellent remedy. .1 have not had oc
casion to use It for oilier ailment.. .
Yours very truly, V. M. Lord.,-
It will be noticed that the Governot
says he has not had occasion to use Pe
runa for other ailments. The reason foi
this Is, most other ailments begin with
a cold. Using Peruna to promptly re
lieve colds, he protects his family against
other ailments.
This Is what e-ery other family in the
t'nlted States should do. Keep Peruna In
the house. Every family should be pro
vided with a copy of Dr. Hartman's free
book on "Chronic Catarrh." Address Dr.
