An old yew tree stands in the
churchyard at Fortingal, in Perth
hiro, which I)e Candoile, nearly a
century ago, proved to the satisfac
ti n of botanists to be twenty-five cen¬
turies obi, and another is itill stand¬
ing at Hed-sor, in liuclas, which is
3,340 years old. How D ( andolle ar¬
rived at an apparently correct fsti
inatc of tiie enormous age of ‘hose
living trees is a simple thing, and t.he
princ iple is doubth ns we»i known to
;!ay to all. The yew, like most oilier
tries, adds one line, about the tenth
of an inch, to its circumference each
year. But the oldest living citing in

There is more Catarrh iti this section of the*
country thanall other diseases put together,
and until tin* last few years was supposed to

pronounced it a local disease and prescribed
local ri'inedies, and )>y constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it be in
curable. Science has proven Catarrh to a
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh

NO DENIAL BY
JUDGE SWAYNE
Every Count in th e Impeachment
Charges is Admitted.
CULPABILITY IS DENIED
Every Article Tak ;en Up by Judge's At¬
torney Before Senate and Justifi¬
cation for Acts Claimed.
A Washington dispatch says;
Through his counsel Judge Swayne
1- riday made formal responses in the
senate to the ar i c j es Q f impeachment
made by the hou.s 0 u f representatives.
1 he answer was* a formidable docu¬
ment in point ol size. Each of the
twelve articles of impeachment was
answered at length. In every case
tiie tact charged vyaa admitted, but ex¬
plained from - ,: id|e Swayne’s point of
view, and in on it was contend
ed that even e conditions were
true as charged, ey were not of a
character to t proceedings for
impeachment ‘high crimes and
S misdemeanors.”
r Ibe answer is a typewritten docu¬
ment of fifty or -sixty pages, and w;s
read by ex-Senat<. r Thurston.
Mr. Thurston i t ok up specifications
of the chargee . a detail contend¬
ing that they wc rq no t such as should
be taken cognizance of by the sen¬
ate. Taking up first the charge of
receiving $10 pet day for expenses
while holding oi irt in Texas while
the judge’s exi * ;es were not so
great, he admit » the receipt of the
money as char | but denied that
liis conduct in respect was com
trary to law, as le allowance oi' $10
per day was in (tided to be a fixed
and definite alio, uce f or judges when
holding court o uR. their districts.
The charge tah in 1903, Judge
Swayne had for , i3 owu use a rail
,vay car of the Jacksonville, Tampa
and Key west Riuwny Company, was
denied. Judge F * ayne admitted the
use of tho car. nut claimed that it
was oocttbled ibvgl - n8£3 if and friej
road. He declarec" that no expense
was incurred by the railroad compa¬
ny on account of his use of the car.
Judge Swayne also denied that he
failed to establish a residence in his
district in Florida and said that he
has resided in that state since 1885,
and in Pensacola since 1894.
The charge o' committing E. T.
j Lewis for contempt, cjuty, he admitted, but
justified it as a but with ref¬
erence to the cb .rge that he* had pre¬
sided in a suit r dating to real estate
in Florida iu which, he was interested.
Judge Swayne denied the holding of
such interest. He attributed this
charge to a conspiracy on the part
of three lawyers in the case for the
purpose of securing delay and thwart¬
ing justice.
He also admitted fining and order
ing to prison Attorney Samuel Belden
and Attorney E. If. Davis, ou the
charge of contempt, rj for their conduct
toward him in the al estate case, and
said his conduct ih that mater was
justifiable, as was shown by the fact
that the sentence was affirmed by
Judge Pardee of the United States cir¬
cuit court. Judge Swayne also justi¬
fied his course in > mimshing W. C.
O'Neal, saying that his course in this
case had been duti to tiie fact that
O'Neal had made a murderous as
sault upon a trust ee in bankruptcy
appointed by him (Swayne) in a bank
ruptcy proceeding.
On motion of Mr ^Fairbanks, an or
der was adopted giving the managers
of the house until 12 p. m., February
6. to present a replication or other
pleading which the house may desire
to make. Tiie order further directed
that all subsequent^ pleadings should
be filed with the secretary of the sen¬
ate and that ail p! eadlngs must be
closed before the h, so that the trial
may proceed at 1 &. in., on the 10th.
