Petersburg, Va., January 24.
Tho local political situation is grow?
ing qttlto Interesting. This afternoon
Samuel W. Zimmer, the present repre?
sentative from Petersburg in the House
of Delegates, announced himself a can?
didate for the State Senate from this
district and promptly began to let his
friends know the fact In person. Mr. I
Zimmer is a successful member or tho

ance and is very popular. And tho
: same may be said of P. H. Drewry,
another member of the bar, who is be
? Ing urged by his friends to offer lor
tho Senate, but who hns not decided
as to his course. John Y. Harris, of
Dinwiddlc county, is the other candi- I
, dato for the Senate in thin district. \
Added Interest Is given to the sltua
I tlon by the announcement that Robert
Ollllam, Jr., and Robert G. Bass, both
well known young lawyers, may bo
come candidates for the House of D'ele
i gates from Petersburg. Neither has
yet positively decided as to the mut?
ter, but their friends are not idle.

Accident to n Trnln.
The north-bound mail and passenger
train, No. SO, on the Atlantic Const
Dine Railroad, due at 7 o'clock P. M.,
met with an accident last evening near
, the Apponmttox Station, which, though
; not sorious, caused much inconvenience.
! In passing the crossing at River and
Third Streets, owing, us is thought, to
a defective switch, the engine, tender
and mall car were partially derailed.
! The train was fortunately moving very
slow at tho time, else other cam might
have been derailed. It required all
night to get the engine and tender pack
on tlte track. Neither was Injured.
The passenger and other cars were
taken back to the Washington Street
Station and thence to Richmond via
the belt line route, and that route was
used for other trains ROing South and
North. The track was all clear and
in order early this morning.

Sometimes Three Fingers Withoul
Nails at One Time, Began 25
Years Ago. No Permanent Cure.
Began to Use Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. In a Short Time Nails
Were Well. No Further Trouble.
"I hare suffered from the same trouble
{painful finger nails] et different periods of
my life. The first time of its occurrence,
perhaps twenty-five years ago, after trying !
home remedies without getting helped. I I
asked my doctor to prescribe for me, but It
was not for a year or more that my nalJs
and fingers were well. The inflammation and
suppuration began at the bate of the finger
nail. Sometimes it v/as so painful t' at I
had to use a poultice to induce suppuration. !
After the pus was discharged tho swelling
would go down until the next period of
Inflammation, possibly not more than a week
or two afterwards. These frequent inflam?
mations resulted In the losa of the nail. I
had sometimes as many as three fingers in
this ?t?te at one time.
"Perhaps ten years later, I began again
to suffer from tlte same trouble. Again I
tried various remedies, among them a pre?
scription from a doctor of a friend of mine,
who had suffered from a like trouble. This
seemed to help somewhat for a time, but it
was no: a permanent cure, next tried a pre?
scription from my own doctor, but thLs was
60 irritating to the sensitive, diseased skin
th&t I could not use. it. I began to use Cuti?
cura Soap and Ointment. 1 had used the
Cuticura Ointment previously on my chil- j
drett's scalps with good effect. 1 did not use ;
the Soap exclusivery. but I rubbed the Cuti?
cura Ointment into the base of the nail every
night thoroughly, and as often beside as I
could. I had not used It hut a few weeks
before my nails were hotter, and in a short
time they were apparently well. There was
no more suppuration, nor inflammation, the.
nails grew out clean again. One box of Cuti?
cura Ointment was all that I used in effecting
a cure." (Signed) Mrs. I. J. Horton, Kato
nah.N.Y., Apr. 13, 1910. On Sept. 21. Mrs.
Horton wrote: " I have, had no further return
of the trouble with my finger nails."

First Action Tried Under North
Carolina Anti-Trust
Law.
[Special to Tho Times-Dispatch.1
Raleigh. N. C-, January 24.?That tho
Stundard Oil Company is not guilty of
the charge of cutting prices of
oil in Raleigh below the cost of
supplying the trade in order to run
out competition here Is the verdlot of
Justice Alex Stronach in the Raleigh
Municipal Court, where Attorney-Gen?
eral Blekett had the prosecution start?
ed, the first under the State anti?
trust law enacted two years ago. Tho
bearing continued two weeks early in
December.
The Justice holds that the prosecu?
tion failed to show that the cuts in
prices of oil were to drive out compe?
tition, rather than on account of an
Increase of supply that brought lower
prices tho country over.
In concluding his ruling, which is
quite lengthy, Justice Stronach says:
?'As to the statute, while this prosecu?
tion seems to show that Its substantial
provisions are ample to remedy the
evil aimed at by the special sections
under which this warrant was drawn,
it also emphasizes ihe necessity for
some more adequate provision for ob?
taining the necessary evidence."

After Mrs. Graham Was Relieved,

Willard, Ky.?In a loiter from this

would have to lie in bed. I had pains in
my side, and would swell up, and my back J
hurt awfully.
When I began to take Cardtti I weighed
only 99 pounds. Soon 1 began to feel a
I great, deal stronger. Not long after I
J weighed 115 lbs. Xow I am doing my
t work, and am in good health,
j Cardui has done wonderful things for
J me. I feel like a new person. 1 will al

j recommended it lo a neighbor, and she is
now looking line."
Fifty years of proof has convinced us,
and those who have tested it. of the value
of Cardui in womanly weakness and dis?
ease.
The only way you can get the benefit of j
the genuine Cardui herbs is by getting a

Tito Boydeii hill, creating n State
Highway Department for co-operating
with counties in road-building, is unan?
imously approved by the joint commit?
tees of the Senate und House on Pub?
lic Roads, hut It will remain with
committees until tho Finance and Ap?
propriations Committees formulate
their plans more definitely for State
finances. The bill provides for a spe?
cial tax of one-fourth of otic mill
on every dollar's worth of taxable
properly for a State highway fund, to
aid counties in permanent road im?
provement, to the amount of one
fourth of the cost of the road. Speakers
at the joint, meeting other than mem?
bers of the committees were Dr. Jo?
seph Hyde Pratt, .1. Q. Barker, of An?
drews, and Mr. McNeill, of Sanford.
Representative Marshall, of Surry
county, several days ago Introduced
a bill to provide free text books for
public school children. He is a Re?
publican, and his hill is in line with
one of the planks of his party, which
tho Democrats allege they are not es?
pousing in good faith, but for political
purposes. Tho House Committee on
Education has just given him a hear?
ing on his bill, and he made an es?
pecially earnest appeal for his meas?
ure to be reported favorably, using
the conditions which 1 he says exist
in his own county as a special text.
The committee gave him a complete
surprise by deciding to report his hill
favorably; but limiting its application
to S?rry county only, and prescribing
that the money for the school books
shall not. come out of the school funds
of the county, but out of the general
county fund. Representative Marshall
has not indicated just what attitude he
will assume in the House when his
bill comes up as amended with favor?
able report from the committee. The
indications are that the House will
pass the bill, and that Its ultimate fate
will rest with the Senator from Surry
In the upper branch of the Assem- !
bly.
