f For men and women who are weak, when they
S should be strong; for babies and children who are thin,
r when they should be fat; for all who do not get from
\ their food the nourishment they should. Poor blood is
f starved blood. You eat and are nourished. Consump-
? tion and scrofula never come when the blood gets its
lj proper food. And nothing is better for starved blood
f than cod-liver oil.
Scott's Emulsion
is cod-liver OIL with the taste taken out. It is for all
who feel weak, have lost appetite or are losing flesh.
No ont else breaks up cod-liver oil as if is broken up in Scott's Emulsion.
Jf you need it, get it. No substitute will do.

WHhltE IS HIS JOB WOW
ntteraej Ufnrril 1 hiiih* It About Tim* l«
Itooat Judge Scott.
Washington. Isv. «>.—Judge Scott of
Oklahoma has been a*ked to resign.
Att<«rn«*y (/« mraJ Harmon has ordered
a letter written l«> that effect and prob-
ably signed It with his mail last eve%
in#.
Scott was given a quiet tip through s
friend In this city some days ago that it
would be well for hUn to resign on hia
own accord, but he refusal to take tiie
hint. Months ago when ull his enemies
were howling for his scalp and wern
moving heaven and earth to s-xure his
dismissal t>y Attorney (Jencrai Har-
mon. fieott maintained a discret and
dignified sllance and the charges which
have been brought against him brtng
of no particular character, were attrib-
uted to his youth and over-zealouAn<*ss
hi -Che discharge *4 ofliclal duties. It
was stated in these dispatches at the
time when all other i ai>ers were de-
claring that 8c«jtt would be removed
wlDhln a few days, that the matter
would be allowed to rest quUtly for I
some time at least, and that if nothing j
further developed against the charac-
ter of the Judge, he would be maintain- I
ed In hia position and his little dlscourt- i
esles to unfriendly members of the bar ,
•would be ignored. This course was pur- i
I sued.
During the early part *A the month of f
| June before Hlnhand Olney had laid
down the portfolio of JufIIoo and taken
up that of the state department, he was j
called upon by a personal friend of,
I Judge Hcott in this city, who was anxl-
I ous to lay the foundation for the Judge's ,
political future. Tills friend pleaded
with the attorney general to the effect
that It was unfair to a young man like j
Judge Hcott to leave charges standing
against him uncu-.tcd upon which might
be called up against him a t any future
time. It was i olnted out lhat the pn s-
I ent congress was likely to lay plans for
tihe future admiFslon of Oklahoma to
statehood, in which case Judge Scott
would be the logical candidate for a
federal Judgeship.
The result of this conversation
that Attorney General Olney wmte a
strong letter,. completely exonerating
Judge Scott from all the charges that
had been filed Against him. For some
reason not quite clearly explained this
letter did not reaoh Judge Scott until
late In the fall. The realization of a
long-deferred hope was too much for
his Judgment He took that letter and
not only exhibited 1< in public places,
but Joudly boasted of his suoceas In de-
feating his enemies, and of what he
would do In the future to those who had
presumed to try to bring a&out bis re-
moval. Of course, it did not take long
for these masters to <x me to the eara
of the now attorney grneral.
Such talk did not pound well coming
from a Judicial officer of the govern-
ment and Mr. Harmon very promptly
decided that It was not to be tolerated.
It was the letter's Intention to ask fot
this resignation a week ago, but Judgf
Scott's friend asked a delay. Without
telling Scott of the attorney geaieral i
decision, he advised him to resign, say-
ing that he could well afford to do so,
having been completely exonorated
from all Phe charges against him. Judfl
Scott's reply was prompt and to tih«
point. "I suppose," he snld, "to live up
to the good old Democratic doctrine
that fnw die and none resign." Heme*

was written today.

Enid, O. T., Dec. ^'.—(Special.)—The
Jury in the case of the territory vs.
Frank Royse. after being out about an
hour, brought in a verdict against
Royse of guilty as charged in the In-
dlotment.
Royse was the late cashier of the de-

ed with embezzlement.
His attorney tiled an appeal to ths
supreme court, and Roy.se is now In
the hands of his bondsmen.

curred here Tuesday night !n which
McNeill shot his wife's paramour. Mar-

cidental shooting of Mrs. Robinson,
who owns the house where the affair
took place. Mrs. Robinson was In an-
other room, when a stray bullet from
McNeil's pistol passed through her hip.
Both victims are still alive, but there
Is but faint hope of their recovery.
Marshall. Mrs. McNeil's paramour. Is
shot through the breast and abdomen,
also in the leg. and only for his mognl-
flcervt physique would have died almost
Instantly. Nothing has be« n heard of
McNeil yet. It Is thought that his act
was deliberate and premedlated, for ha
had been busy all day settlfng up hia
business affairs. Many people here j
think that the bullet that struck Mrs.
Robinson was Intended for Mrs. Mc- '
Nell, who fi.-d from the house scream-
ing as soon as the shooting com- ,
menced.

I and Dottle Brightsley, who were married |
In the stairway leading up to the probata
court rooms a couple of weeks ago, hav-
ing Chief of I'oliee Boles as a witness,
seems to be having a stormy married life.
A week after the ceremony Dot tie had
Jack arrested for threatening her l!fe with !
a hatchet, ar.d intimated that he was a
| fugitive from the JuntVe of Michigan, j
having committed a crime up there. Latet j
she withdrew both the complaint and th«
intimations, and Jack was released. Sun-
day night Dottle attan called upon the
police to save her hubby's life, saying
I he had taken morphlnie with a view of
. shuffling ofT. Jack denied the soft Im-
peachment. but the police didn't believe
| him. and besides calling !n a doctor work-
ed over him until late at night. The
doctor decided Juok has a bad case of
fever oud that Pottle ami the police were
needlessly alarmed. The police, the doc-
tors and the community are anxiously
awaiting the next sensation Jack and l>ot-
tfe will spring on rh -m.

OUR COAST DEFENSES.
(ion. Miles Mays They Are In a Ilatl Condi.
tlon.
Washington, 4>ec. 23. —C en. Miles,
commanding the urmy, has given out a
statement by request in regard to the
ability of the United States to defend
itself iu case of war. He said: "I have
just returned from an inspection of the
harbors of the southern coast and, like
those of other section^ of the country,
I found them iu an entirely defenseless
condition. If war should break out
ut the present time all wo have
in the south, or, in fact, anywhere
else, with a fow exceptions, would
be a lot of obsolete guns on rotten car-
riages, which would fall over because
they could not be of any service. We
are in a deplorable state for defense.
There are only three modern high
power guns in position in this coun-
try." The general says there would
be no difficulty in getting 1,000,000
men, our small army acting as a nu-
cleus for other troops.
WESTERNERS W£LL PLEASED.
Washington, Dec. —There is gen-
neral satisfaction among the members
from Kansas nnd Missouri over the
committee assignments. It is freely
conceded that the delegations from the
two states were never in better posi-
tion to serve their constituents in con-
gressional work than under their as-
signments Col. Blue heads, in
position, the members from both
.states, being placed on the
committee on appropriations. This is
the second time that u new man has
been placed on that committee in the
history of congress, the first time being
when Jnmes Burns, of St. Joseph, wap
awarded a similar honor. A place on
that committee is looked upon as being
equal to a first-class chairmanship, and
feiv would exchange it for any chair-
manship outside of four committees.
DR. HEARNE SET FREE.
The Man Aerated of .Murdering Amos S
HI III well f ound Not Utility.
Bowling (Jkkkn, Ma, Dec. The
greatest murder mystery in the history
of Missouri remuins unsolved. At six
o'clock Saturday night, in the dimly
lighted court room where Dr. Ilearne
has been on trial for the murder of
Amos J. Still well for two weeks, a
jury of his peers found him not guilty
and he was formally discharged.
Mrs. Ilearne was admitted to bail
in the sum of 85,000 which
was furnished at once by W. T.
Ilearne, of Independence, Mo., and D.
A. Ball, of Louisiana, Mo. This prac-
tically frees her also, as it swerves the
indictment, and the chances are that
when the case comes to trial it will be
nolle pressed, though Prosecuting Ak-
torney Heather will not say what ac-
tion he intends to take.

TWO HUNDHtD DROWNED.

Washington. Dee. 23.—United States
Consul Jacob Child at llankow, China, ;
reported to the state department that
a violent storm passed over that place :
November 2. commencing about mid-
night. The wind blew a hurricane, j
anil caused a number of rafts anchored !
in the river to break loose, and as they ;
sped down the swift current they
collided with a lleet of juuks, carrying 1
all before them, wrecking and sinking
a large number, and over 200 persons
were drowned. Much damage waa
done throughout the country.
Strike Still On.
Philadelphia, Dec. 23.—At a late
hour last night the strike situation
was apparently unchanged, but tho
air was full of all kinds of rumors. No
attempt was made to run ears, the au-
thorities fearing violence from the
strikers' sympathizers, who were idle.
To I,*nrn Public Sentiment-
New York, Dec. 23. — It is sta&d ou
excellent authority that within the
last few days representatives of tlio
British government in all the prin-
cipal cities of tlie United States have
been summoned quietly togo to Wash-
ington to see the British minister.
While it is true these consuls do not
have diplomatic powers and it is not
at all likely Sir Julian l'auncefort will
ask advice in any matter of diplomacy,
yet it is believed it is his wish to talk
matters over with them, and ascertain
what the real feeling «>f the American
people is at the present time.
Three Pernuiift Drowned.
Hot Springs. Ark.. Dec. 23. —News
has reached here of the drowning in
Forchee creek of Mrs. T. nnie Whitard,
of Bismarck. Mo., her infant and her
sister. Ada Hardasre, while attempting
to ford the stream a few days ag<
The infant's body has l ecn recovered.
