One Italian Shot.
Jumping back, Isaac, drew a revolver
and, aiming at the nearest man, pulled
the trigger. Only the dull click of the
hammer responded. The weapon had
miBsed fire. Another instant the blade
of a^ shovel sank deep into his shoulder,
forcing him to his knees. Again the
constable pulled at the trigger, and this
time there was a loud report and one of
the Italians fell to the ground with a
bullet in his stomach. Before the
wounded officer could fie again a pick
ax descended on his head, crushing his
skull.
Hamill Pights for Life.
Hamill, in the meantime, surrounded
by half the gang, fought wildly for his
life. His revolver had been dashed
from his hand before he could use it
and he was at the mercy of the howl
ing mob. Bushing over the dying
Isaac, he clinched with the nearest as
sailant and, using the man as a shield,
forced his way thru the crowd ann
staggered down the track, bleeding
from a dozen wounds.
The Italians did not pursue him, but
immediately prepared to leave. Two
handcars were placed on the rails, the
wounded Italian was lifted upon one
and the gang started down the track.
After traveling about three miles the
cars were abandoned and the gang
broke for the woods in groups of two
and three.
Fifteen minutes after the murder not
an Italian laborer was to be seen in any
direction.
The news of the assault spread like
wild fire and from all parts of the vil
lage armed men hurried down the

Died in Half an Hour.
Isaac was carried on a stretcher to
the station, but nothing could be done
for him and he never regained con
sciousness. In half an hour he was
dead. Hamill's wound is not dangerous.
The murdered man was about 55
years old, and had a wife and daughter
and three sons. He was a carpenter
who had lived, here for many years,
and had the fullest respect of the com

Skullen of Trimbelle, who was search
ing the woods, armed with a heavy
rifle, noticed a man sneaking thru the

him and forced him to march to the
village, where it was discovered he was
the much-wanted Saroguse.
In the same manner the other four

unt went on.
Whole Countryside Aroused.
The news of the tragedy spread like
wildfire. The surrounding country in
stantly became alive with armed men,
hurrying towards the railroad track and
in the direction in which the laborers
had fled.
As soon as the news reached Ells
worth, the county seat. Sheriff Nugent
started in an automobile towards Pres
cott. Telegraph and telephone messages
were sent from Prescott to Diamond
Bluff, Hager, Ellsworth, Red Wing and
the surrounafhjf towns to have them

Fired Upon a Farmer.
While a short distance this side of
Diamond Bluff, some of the fugitives
who were armed, met a farmer driving.
Altho unable to talk English, they
gave him to understand that they
wanted his team. The farmer became
alarmed and whipping up his horses,
dashed down the road. The Italians
fired a shower of bullets after him, but
he escaped and quickly told his neigh
bors of his experience and organized a
posse.
The farmers found their game hus
tling thru the woods on the other side
of Diamond Bluff and game them a
lively chase, which ended by the Ital
ians seeking refuge in an old vacant
log cabin on what is known as the Nel
son farm, just the other side of the vil
lage of Diamond Bluff.

reforms, the speaker styled as a fallacy
the popular belief that reaction in
evitably follows a crusade of this char
acter.
"Reforms," said Mayor Jones,
"should not be given in haste, nor in
large doses. Very often a nice discrim
ination is needed to determine how far
a reform may be extended, and, in my
opinion, the future of the movement de
pends in a large measure upon impress
ing the individual with the necessity
of obeying and helping to enforce the
law.
"When people aspire to higher ideals
they must insist upon their realization.
The good of today must be the better
of tomorrow. There can no longer be
a dual standard of right and wrong1
there can be no such thing as public
right and wrong and private right and
wrong. Every executive must stand for
the right and hold aloof from graft.
Graft is the acceptance of any favor
or benefit by a public official which
he would not or could not receive if
he were a private citizen. And, let
me add, the man who attends a prayer
meeting and forgets to attend the cau
cus and go to the voting booth is a
dissembler and a hypocrite."

"*Wa* Rutored to Health By P-rw-na AfUr a Long IUneu.
JAMES J. OSBORN, 628 N. Wahsatch Ave.. Colomdo Springs, Colo.,
filled all the positions In Knight Templars Masonic Order, was a
Mason since 1866, Judge of County Court. .Clinton. Mo., also County
Collector of Clinton. He writes:
"A sluggish liver which I had been troubled with for two years made Ufe
miserable and I was unable to attend to my business half the time. I lacked
energy, had headache most of tha. time, and my food distressed me and did
not seem to do me a particle of good.
"Reading of the many cures performed by Peruna, I decided that It
would not hurt to try a bottle. Before I had taken
many doses I certainly felt better and by the time I
had taken one bottle there was a marked change for
the better. I took it as directed for two months when
I was a a well man, able to go down to business every
day and take hold of my work with renejwed strength and vigor. You have
an excellent mmedy."
sineelsb Iiier DescriMHow
Pe-ra-na em Such Cases.
A sluggish liver is brought about
in the following way: There is a
catarrhal condition of the mucous
membrane lining the stomach- This
catarrhal condition spreads down*
ward to that portion of the alimentary
canal just below tha stomach known
as the duodenum.
Into the duodenum empty the bile
ducts. These bile ducts are lined
with mucous membrane continuous
with the mucous membrane of the
duodenum. The catarrhal Inflamma
tion therefore gradually spreads from
the membranes of the stomach and
duodenum into the bile ducts.
This thickens the mucous mem
branes and clogs up the ducts. The
bile is then turned back into the liver
and the whole circulation of the liver
impeded, producing what is known as
a sluggish liver.
Cathartics bring only temporary re
lief. They slush out the liver for the
time and relieve this sluggishness, but
it has been the universal experience
of mankind that the sluggishness will
return very quickly.
The only permanent relief is ob
tained from a course of treatment that
tends to allay the catarrhal inflam
mation. Thousands of people have
found Pernua to be such a remedy.
It removes the cause of the sluggish
ness of the liver by removing the

caused by a sluggisih liver. Listless
ness, an all-tlred-out feeling, lack of
energy, confusion of the senses, sleep
lessness, yellow skin, coated tongue
these are a few of the symptoms
produced by a sluggish liver.
The condition of the stomach and
liver above described has been for
many years denominated by Dr. Hart
man as systemio catarrh.
Patients of this kind are generally
supposed to be afflicted with malaria.
Quinine, alternated with physic, is
the usual treatment. Disappointment
generally follows such a treatment
Those who have ever tried Pernua
for such a condition never fail to re
sort to it again whenever they have
occasion to do so.

Cooper's Success
in the South
Those who have followed the
stories of the remarkable work that
L. T. Cooper has been accomplishing
with his two new medicines will be
interested in the report that comes
of his invasion of Nashville, Tenn.,
after nearly four weeks of phenom
enal success in New Orleans.
Sinee Cooper's arrival in Nash
ville a few days ago, says a dis
patch, the city has been in an up
roar of excitement. The newspa
pers print detailed accounts of his
every move, and recent issues con
tain names of several prominent
persons said to have been cured
by the use of his preparations.
The cases thus far made public
seem to be confined largely to Stom
ach trouble, altho the names of
several persons have been men
tioned as having received excellent
results in cases of Kidney trouble
and Bheumatism. One thing that
has done much toward creating the
present excitement is the theory ad
vanced by Cooper that about 50
per cent of the so-called stomach
trouble is due to immense parasites
or tapeworms and which indeed
seems true, if one can judge from
the number of cases that are be
ing continually made public.
O Beports from New Orleans say
that upwards of fifty of these para
sites were expelled from the sys
O terns of persons who thought them
selves suffering from stomach trou
ble. SO far there have been report
O ed seven cases in Nashville, and
in almost every instance the patient
was unaware of the real cause of the
trouble. Mrs. M. Murry, 1605
James St., Nashville, a well-known
and respected lady, who, accord

several years and had been using
Cooper's 'Medicines since his ar

SIGNS OF AGE SHOWN
IN YATIGAN PALACE
Journal Special Serrtoa,
Borne, July 14.There is alarm in
the Vatican on account of ominous
crackling sounds from the walls used as
the ante-chamber of the pope's apart
ments. Fragments have fallen from
the ceilings or several rooms. The first
to take flight upon these disturbing
signs were the noble guards of the pope,
who feared to be buried in debris, and
the pope moved to safer quarters. A
confernece of engineers found really
serious deteriorations in certain parts
of the palace. Repairs and reinforce
ments were decided upon.

When seen and asked about her
experience, Mrs. Murry said: 'I had
been a victim of stomach trouble
for years and doctored in vain. I
suffered greatly from an irregular
appetite, sometimes not being able
to eat at all, andjotiherltimee noQbeing
able to eat enough. I used to feel
tired and worn out all the time, lost
all ambition. I did not seem to gain
any strength or nourishment from
what I ate. I was nearly always
troubled with constipation and fre
quently suffered from severe head
aches. Sometimes I would have
queer dizzy spells and could see dark
spots floating before my eyes. After
eating I would invariably experi
ence a pain and bloating sensation
in my stomach. I had doctored for
a long time and have used every
remedy I ever heard of without any O
benefit. When this man Cooper
came to Nashville and every one
was talking about what his medi
cines were doing I secured a trial
treatment. I had taken only a few
doses of the New Discovery medi
cine when a horrible tapeworm

story. Now I am feeling much O
stronger and better in every way. I
eat well and never have headaches O
any more. I am more than grateful
for what Mr. Cooper's wonderful
medicine has done for me and I am A
satisfied that my suffering of all
these years was caused by nothing
but that awful worm."
Cooper, it will be remembered,
is the man who created a sensation

which time the newspapers all over
the country were full of the reports O
of his work. The sale of his prepar
