CITY NEWS
TWO STORIES OF
GORDON SHOOTING
THUNDERER CLAIMS KENNEDY
CAME TO SILL HIM.
Latest Adventure of the Former Minne
sotan Is Variously ExplainedWife,
Suing for Divorce, Game to See Him
with Her Brother at 1 O'Clock in the
Morning.
Colonel H. L. Gordon's recent "gun
play" in Los Angeles has aroused een
eral interest and comment in the Cali
fornia city, as well as in Minnesota,
where he is widely known. The inci
dent is variously interpreted and later
developments are awaited anxiously.
In the early morning of April 21, Col
onel Gordon fired a shot at his brother
in-law, W. J. Kennedy, who was accom
panying Mrs. Gordon on a visit to-the
colonel. The shot went wide. Ken
nedy and his sister fled from the build
ing to the police station, where they
asked protection. Colonel Gordon was
later taken to the station, but no arrests
were made. The shooting is admitted
to have resulted from the Gordons'
marital troubles and Mrs. Gordon's di
vorce case, now pending in the superior
court at Los Angeles.
Colonel Gordon's version of the in
cident is as follows:
About 1 o'clock I was seated in my
room, No. 26, in the Gordon block, talk
ing to my grandson, Ned Hedderly,
when a knock sounded at the door. I
asked who was there and the voice of
my wife replied, 'It's Nellie.' I
opened the door and saw my wife, but
right behind her came her brother, W.
J. Kennedy. They crowded into the
room and Mrs. Gordon immediately
threw herself upon me. I saw Kennedy
make a motion as tho to draw a
weapon from his back pocket and I im
mediately pulled out'my-'own-revolver
and as Kennedy, ran down the stairs
toward Broadway, I fired a shot at
his retreating figured"
The Other Side. --&h:
Mrs. Gordon and Kennedy throw .an-
other light on the case. Thejr claim
that Kennedy accompanied his.sister to
protect her from her husband, but
neither states what business Mrs. Gor
don had to transact at 1 o'clock in the
morning. They say that they reached
the colonel's room and he had just
opened the door to admit Mrs. Gor
don, when he saw Kennedy behind her.
He ordered his brother-in-law to leave
the building and immediately drew and
fired.
The police officer who went to sum
mon Gordon to the station found a re
volver at the head of the stairs. This
is believed by some to belong to Ken
nedy.
Mrs. Gordon identified the: revolver .as
one that 'belonged: to her. She asserts
that her brother was unarmed, when he
started from home and had no chance to
secure a Weapon pn the way.
The Gordon case is one that has at
tracted much attention from Los An
geles people in the last few weeks. One
night less than two months ago Colonel
I Gordon made a public statement
1 which he accused his wife of infidelity.
He asserted that Mrs. Gordon and mem
rbers of her
famil,y werealsplotting
'secure his
fortune and declareot
ithat he would go thru bankruptcy be
i fore he would allow the Kennedys to ob*
tain one dollar of his money.'
Colonel Gordon is rated in California
as a millionaire.

SET. Contracts were let yesterday ^pr the
construction of a six-room addition to
the Holland school, at a'n' aggregate cost

rapidly. The monthly report of Super
intendent C. M. Jordan, showing that
there were 375 pupils who could attend
school only half the day on account of
the lack of accommodations proves the
necessity of some active building work

HEARST WANTS PAPER'
ADMITTED TO PRISON
Governor Johnson has received a
strenuous complaint from his fellow
democrat and newspaper man, William
Randolph' Hearst, who alleges that
Warden Wolf er of the Stillwater prison
has refused- to allow the men under
his cafe^o peruse the Chicago American.
The complaint says that a convict,
known only by prison number, sent a
subscription accompanied by the money,
but complained later that he did not re
ceive the paper. On writing: to the
warden, au reply was received stating
that inmates of the penitentiary were
not permitted to read the Hearst paper.
Mr. Hearst wants to, know why. He
asserts that his papers, are read' by
thousands of people fully as respectable
as Mr. Wolfer's proteges. The gov
ernor does not' assume control of the
prison, and has referred the complaint
to the board of control, which will proba
bly reply that inmates of the peniten
tiary are not allowed to subscribe for
daily, papers of any hue, yellow or other
wise. _.

BUSYBODIBS VS. TRUTH.
Here Are The Facts Judge For Yourself.
Busybodies who see in success only falsity, who, without making an effort to
Inform themselves, blatantly cry offense against honesty and truthseem to forget
that a slur against Dr. Pierce's well-known non-alcoholic family remedies is a slur
agaiast. the. intelligence of thousands of clear-thinking American women who
know they have been helped and cured bv Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It
not a "patent medicine" in the true meaning of the wordit is simply the
favorite remedy which Dr. Pierce used in an extended practice for the treatment
of the diseases of women.
A name for honesty and square dealing is better
than great riches. Fraud is a bubble that soon
buiratSi Dr. R. V. Pierce has always been known to
speak the truth~-his famous medicines are founded on the rock of public approval
and have.thousands of truthful testimonials as to their ability to cure diseases
for which they are recommended.
No man ever lost a prospective customer through
telling the truth. In the long run Dr. Pierce believes
the truth will prevail and he is therefore not afraid to
The ingredients of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
is here given to the public. He vindicates the excel
lence and harmless character of his ^Prescription"
by letting the sick and ailing women know just what
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription combines a non
alcoholic extract from the following medicinal plants
scientifically prepared by experienced chemists at the laboratory of the World's
Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y.:
LADY'S SI^PPER {Cypripedium Pubescens).
BI^ACK COHOSH {Cimicifuga Racemosa).
UNICORN ROOT (Chamalirium Luteutri).
BI,UE COHOSH {Caulophyllum Thalidroides).
GOLDEN SEAI, {Hydrastis Canadensis).
~1 King's American Dispensatory says of BI.UE COHOSH
(Caulophyllum): "This remedy is most valuable to
relieve irritation of the organs in debilitated patients. It has an established
reputation as a remedy for nervous excitement due to those disorders peculiar to
women as well as for the relief of pain, with fullness, weight and pain in the legs,
debility, crampy^paitts, etc."
"Goldenseal is)very useful in catarrhal states of the mucous membranes/7
i: "Black Cohosh or Black Snake-rootOur early American Indians set a high
.value on in diseases of women. It is surpassed by no other drug, in congestive
conditions of the parts where there are dragging pains and tenderness."'
Lady's Slipper is "nerve, stimulant and tonic, improving both circulation and
nutrition of the nerve centersfavoring sleep and cheerful condition of the mind
of service in mental depression, nervous headache, irregularities of women with
despondency."
Women should know that this "Prescription"
promptly heals inflammation and ulceration, stops weak
ening drains and restores the health and vigor of youth.
It nts for wifehood and prepares for motherhood. It banishes morning sickness
and other discomforts of ante-maternity. It makes "fresh, vigorous women."
Read what one woman out of many'thousand has said about this "Favorite
Prescription" of Dr. Pierce i -r
1*1 suffered for more than seven years with a compli
cated form of female trouble accompanied with nervous
prostration* I wrote to Dr. Pierce, followed his instructions, took Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription and now feel grateful to him for my restoration to health.
I have, witti^th^ past fifteen years, suggested and recommended Dr. Pierce's
treatment to hundreds of ladies with grand results," writes Mrs. H. Harrison, of
2 West Second Street, Sioux City, Iowa.
