FLUE CURING IMPROVES TOBACCO LIKE ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE Flue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste Found in Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger There are three ways used by far mers for curing and preparing their tobacco for the market; namely, sun cured, air cured and flue cured. The , old and cheap way is called air cured; \ the later discovery and improved way is called flue cured. In flue-curing I the tobacco is taken from the field f and suspended over intensely hot I flues in houses especially built to re ; tain the heat, and there kept in the ' proper temperature until this curing • process developes in the tobacco the stimulating taste and fragrant aroma found in Schnapps tobacco, just as green coffee is made fragrant and stimulating by the roasting process. Only choice selections of this ripe, juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the famous Piedmont country, where the . best tobacco grows, are used in Schnapps and other Reynolds' brands of high grade, flue cufed tobaccos. 1 R. J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO COMPANY, WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. W. D. Haywood, Charged With Murder Resumed Stand in his Own Behalf Boise, Idaho, July 12. —William D. Haywood, the first of the men to be placed on trial, charged with the mur der of former Governor Steunenberg, today continued his testimony in his own behalf. The rebuttal will begin Monday. About 40 witnesses altogether have been subpoenaed for this rebuttal. Counsel for the state expect to occu up the greater part of next week in the examination of their witnesses | and may call a number of witnesses in sur-rebuttal. Should this be made necessary, it is possible that the court will have to adjourn for some days in order that the defense may be given time to summon their witnesses from a dis tance. The president, and Haywood, the secretary of the Western Federation I t>f Miners, have denied in most posi tive terms that they knew Orchard in j any ether connection than as a member ' of the Federation. It is believed there are sensational developments yet in store in connec tion with the case. Both sides are threatening perjury proceedings against certain witnesses, and both sides maintain that in the rebuttal and sur-rebuttal much matter altogether unexpected will be brought out. Judge Wood is now inclined to .limit the evidence to what is actually ma terial to the case. He has given both sides extremely wide latitude. Flinn on Stand. Dominick Flinn, one of the defenses' witnesses, was recalled by the state when the case was opened. He was asked as to a conversation he had with Daniel Ganey at Mullan. Idaho, in in 1899. The Questions were evidently for the purpose of impeachment. Af ter Flinn left the stand, Haywood was recalled and the direct examination was continued. Haywood vs. Orchard. Ilaywood said Orchard had been at his house several times. Most of the members of the union when in Denver, called at his home, he said. He de nied that he had ever called on Or chard; also denied that he ever had "anything to do with buying a horse and buggy for Orchard to go out on a killing expedition with." The witness denied he had talked to Orchard or planned with him the kill ing of Sherman Bell, Governor Pea bodv, James Hearn, David Mofft o: Judges Goddard and Gabbert. He de clred that Orchard's story on the wit ness stand was the first he had heard of the master. Money Sent Adams. Haywood first met Steve Adams in 1902. He said $75 he sent Adams at Ogden, when the latter wired he was in jail there, was his (Haywood's) own money. Adams had been out pros pecting and had stated on leaving Denver that if he struck anything he would locate Haywood on it. Ilaywood denied he had any concern in or knowledge of the plot to kill Stuenberg. Haywood on the Rack. Adams and his wife left Colorado in the spring of 1905. Haywood said sometime later he received a letter from Mrs. Adams saying they had lo cated a homestead in Oregon, but need- CASTORIA For Infants and Children.

Haywood said his note to Mrs. Or chard was in reply to one from her ask ing as to Orchard's whereabouts. Hay wood said the first he heard of the assassination of Stuenberg Avas in the papers. The papers also reported that the union card had been found in the ef fects of Thomas Hogau, arrested on suspicion. He said at the union head quarters there was considerable ques tion as to who Hogan was. The con sensus of opinion being that it was Orchard. He said when the matter of employing counsel for Orchard came up the general counsel of the federa tion advised going slowly. When the direct examination of Haywood was concluded, Senatir Borah took the witness in hand for cross examination. Will Give Glorious Time Philadelphia, Pa., July 12. —Judge Henry A.

Hundreds of imitation brands are on sale that look like Schnapps; the outside of the imitation plugs of to bacco is flue cured, but the inside is filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily sweetened air cured ' tobacco; one chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger longer than two chews of such tobacco. Expert tests prove that this flue cured tobacco, grown in the famous Piedmont region, requires and takes less sweetening than any oth x kind, and has a wholesome, stimulating, satisfying effect on chewers. If the kind of tobacco yon are chewing don't satisfy, more than the mere habit of expectorating, stop fooling yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco. Schnapps is like the tobacco chew ers formerly bought costing from 75c. to $l.OO per pound; Schnapps is sold at 50c. per pound in sc. cuts, strictly 10 and 15 cent plugs. N. C.

Rowland Case Set bo Interesting Controve rs y Arose in Court Room Over Right of News paper Man to Take Pic ■; ture of Rowlands. • Raleigh, N. C., July 12—The case against Dr. and Mrs. D. S. Rowland, charged with the murder of Charles R. Strange, then'the husband of the present Mrs. Rowland, was continued until September. The court- admitted the depositions taken in Tennessee and Virginia, go ing to show that Strange was suffer er from heart failure and the state's attorneys are given time to obtain evidence to controvert them. A Fuller Account. Special to The News. Raleigh, N. C., July 12.—There will bo no trial of the famous poisoning case of Dr. David S. Rowland and wife here until the September court, the first Thursday of the term. This or der was made this morning over the vigorous protest of counsel for Row lands on the strength of a statement by Solicitor Jones that the state can not adequately prepare for the trial at this term in view of the ruling by the court yesterday permitting the de positions taken at Norfolk, Memphis and other places out of the state by the defense. These depositions un dertaking to set out that Strange was subject to and died of heart disease and used as a medicine, the very pois on, digitalis, which the State alleges was probably used by Rowlands in accomplishing his death. In the midst of the discussion for a continuance the court directed that Dr. Rowland and wife be brought from the jail. Remarkable Incident. The prisoners had scarecly more than taken their scats when a remark able proceeding took place. W. L. Watson, counsel for the pris oners address the court with the state ment that he was informed that there was a photographer in the court room attempting to get snap shots of the court scenes and especially of the Rowlands, his clients objecting serious ly to any likeness of themselves be ing published at all. He asked the court to direct the pho tographer and press correspondents employing him to take no such pic tures. The correspondent of this paper be ing referred to at once stepped around into the bar facing the judge and stat ed that he did have a photographer to take the pictures and that in doing so he was not departing at all from the practice of newspapers and newspaper correspondents the country over, these illustrations being now recognized as legitimate features of metropolitan journalism. S. C. Ryan, of the counsel for the Rowlands declared that while it did seem that ta:s method of illustra tion was in vogue in some parts of the country for representatives of the press going about to photograph all manner of things, good and evil, but -mostly evil, it was the wish of himself and those associated with him to keep the practice out of Wake county. Judge Long, addressing the corres pondent, stated in view of the objec tion of Rowland's counsel as a court officer to the taking of photographs he would, out of deference, to them direct that they be not taken. The correspondent expressed the desire to confirm to wishes of the court and retired. After the prisoners had been re turned to jail Watson again appeared before the court and stated he was informed that as the pris?>ners passed across the bridge of sighs from the court room to the jail the same pho tographer had taken a snap shot of the prisoners from an adjoining build ing and he desired that he and the correspondent be attached for con tempt. Judge Long passed the matter over with the statement that he did not care to take such action but that il counsel desired to make a fight furth er about the pictures then they knew what course they might pursue. Contempt proceedings are threat ened and a vigorous fight is being made to deter the press correspon dent from the use of pictures. Soldiers Raid People, Assault The Women, Etc.

SKIN DISEASES HUMORS IN THE BLOOD When the blood is pure, fresh and healthy, the skin will be soft, smooth and free from blemishes, but when some acid humor takes root in tlie circu lation its presence is manifested by a skin eruption or disease. These humors get into the blood, generally because of an inactive or sluggish condition of the members of the body whose duty it is to collect and carry off the waste and refuse matter of the system. This unhealthy matter is left to sour and ferment and soon the circulation becomes charged with the acid poison. The blood begins to throw off the humors and acids through the pores and glands of the skin, producing Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin eruptions of various kinds. Eczema appears, usually with a slight redness of the skin followed by pustules from which there flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense. It is generally on the back, breast, face, arms and legs, though other parts of the body may be affected. In Tetter the skin dries, cracks and bleeds; the acid in the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, which are intended to keep it soft and pliant, causing a dry, feverish condition and giving it a hard, leathery appearance.
