ALMOST LYNCHING
NEIGHBORHOOD EMURED OVER A
KEGRO'S ACTIONS.
NO ASSAULT WAS ATTEMPTED
CHARGED THAT HE TOOK LIBER
TIES "WITH A CHILD.
Jolin Shaffer, Xeirro Janitor at "Wash
ington Street M. E. Church,
- Tlirnaked by a Member and
1'urnned 1" an Indig
nant Crowd.
John Shaffer, the negro janitor of tho
"Washington Street Methodist church, at
Thirteenth and Washington streets, is
locked tip at No. 4 police station, charged
with mistreating the 7-year-old daughter
of J. M. Tibbals, an electrician employed
In the American Bank building. The of
fense is alleged to have been committed
thrco weeks ago to-day in the Sunday
school room of the church, but the circum
stances connected -with the affair woro not
made known to tho police until .yesterday
afternoon. Shaffer's arrest then followed,
after he had been given a sound thrashing
by Dr. G. N. Nicholson and pursued through
the streets for a distance of two or three
blocks by the pastor of the church and sev
eral other persons, who joined in the chase
without knowing why the- negro was
wanted.
The little daughter or Mr. and Mrs. Tib
bals has been a regular attendant at Sab
bath school at the Washington Street
, Methodist church. She had been late on
two or three occasions and three weeks
ago to-day she begged her mother to per
mit her to go earlier than had been her
custom. When the little child reached the
chinch there was no-person there with the
, exception of the negro janitor. It is
charged that Shaffer, while playing with
the child, took undue liberties with her.
It Is not charged that he made any at
tempt to criminally assault her, but that
Jie mistreated her In many ways until she
began crying. Then he Is said to have told
lier that he would kill her If she told her
parents how he had acted toward her.
The conduct of the negro frightened -the
child and she said nothing about the af
fair until yesterday. She made the remark
to her.raother that she did not want to go
to Sabbath school to-day, and when
pressed for a reason told her of the actions
of Shaffer. ,
Dr. Nicholson, who boards at the home
of the Tlbbals, heard' the child's story and
he went at once to the father of the girl,
who was at work In the basement of the
American Bank building. Tlbbals could not
leave his work and he sent Dr. Nicholson
to see Rev. Mr. ICoontz, pastor of the
church. Dr. Nicholson and the pastor
went at once to the church and found
Shaffer at work. The negro admitted that,
he had taken a fancy to the child and
played with her on the occasion stated by
her, but denied that ho had tried to harm
her.
Dr. Nicholson became enraged at the ne
STO and assaulted him with his clenched
lists.. Shaffer made his escape from the
building and ran south on Washington
street to Fourteenth and then west to
Penn street, where he fell Into tho hands
of two policemen. Dr. Nicholson and Rev.
Mr. Koontz ran after the negro, 'and a half
dozen pedestrians who were attracted by
the negro's cries joined In the Chase. Tlb
bals hurried home and was on his way to
the church with a party of mends when
the negro was captured. Had he got hold
of, Shaffer before he had been turned over
to the officers It would probably have been
necessary to call an undertaker's cart in
stead of a patrol wagon.
Mr. Tlbbals said last, night that his lit
tle daughter told hlm'-that Shaffer picked'
her up in his arms and kissed her. Then
he carried her Into the basement of the
church. She began crying and Shaffer re
leased her only when he thought he
heard some one enter the church. Be
fore letting the little girl go. it Is alleged
that he took out a long bladcd pocket
knife and after flourishing it in her face,
threatened to- kill her if she told her par
ents anything when .she got home. The
child was on the point of telling her mother
what had happened several times, but each
time she said the ugly looking janitor,
with knife In hand, made her afraid to tell
even her parents what had happened.
Shaffer .refused to talk after being locked
up. He was booked for investigation and
a state warrant will be Issued for him to
morrow. The fijther of the girl and Dr. Nicholson
wore beside themselves with rage when
they went to the church yesterday after
noon, atT If they had been able to capture
the negro before he fell Into the hands of
the police, there would probably have been
n lynching in the residence district out en
Penn street.
Caught' lit the Act.
Thomas Jordon was arrested by Officer
West In Noland's saloon at Fifth and
Broadway at 5 o'clock yesterday morning
while attempting to rob a drunken man
who was in the saloon. Jordon was caught
In the act of relieving a man named Harris
of a cheap stud and was turned over to
Officer West by the bartender In the sa
loon. Harris refused to prosecute Jordon
and ho was released.

MERIT MAKESJT FAMOUS.
The Only Remedy in the World, Ex
cept a Surgical Operation, That Will
Certainly Cure Any Form of Piles.
The study of physicians, the experiments
of chemists, the loudly advertised preten
sions of o,uacks, have been for years ex
pended in one direction: to find a pile cure
that will cure.
The results have been a number of harm
lc, and In most cases useless, ointments,
fcunnotitorles and even internal rpmciM'
which the public have weighed In the bal
ance of experience and found wanting;
nearly all cf them gave tome relief, but
nothing approaching a radical cure resulted
from tlioe preparations.
Tiio remedy required is one that Immed-latelj-
Mops the pain so severe In most
cases of piles, and then by contracting the
f-mall blood vew-els (capillaries) to their
normal size, produces a radical cure by re
ducing and finally absorbing the tumors
and healing the inflamed, raw mucous sur
faces. Until two years ago. no such remedy had
been produced, but at that time suppository
wah placed upon the market, which has
slnco proven itself to be the long sought
permanent cure for this common and dis
tressing trouble: it has rapidly become fa
mous throughout the United Stares and
Canada, and Is now sold by nearly all drug
gists under the name of the Pyramid Pile
Cure.
It is now tho best known, because Its
merit and afeiy have advertised it wher
ever used. It has been advertised by word
of mouth, from one sufferer to another
jwople who had tried everything else, even
submitting to painful and dangerous surgi
cal operations without avail, finally have
found that piles may bo cured without pain
and without expense, practically, as the
Pyramid Pile Cure is sold for the nominal
price of CO cents and $1.00 per package.
Tho Pyramid instantly stops all pain and
at the same time contain no cocaine mor
phine or narcotics: the acids and healing
proierties contained in the remedy speedily
remove, cause a nealthful. natural con
traction and absorption of tumors: It will
euro any form of rectal trouble except can
cer and advauced fistula, which, bv the
way. nearly always result from neglecting
proper and timely treatment for piles.
As' above stated, can furnish you with
the Pyramid Pile Cure at SO cents for or
dinary size, or $1.00 for large package.

WAS A SLICK GAME.
Boarders- Who Threw Doit in the
Eyes of a Landlady Until Justice
Rons Told Her Differently.
The deepest, darkest "con game" yet
recorded came to light yesterday when
Mrs. E. B. Gibbons, who lives near Sixth
street and Broadway, called on Justice
Ross for some legal advice. Mrs. Gibbons
Is a good, honest woman, but no lawyer.
She keeps a rooming house and, unfor
tunatelyperhaps through natural selec
tionhas acquired a number of lodgers
who Impose upon her credulity and horror
of any litigation.
'When one of these unregenerates got be
hind in his room rent and when gently
.reminded by his landlady of the fact, ha
proceeaeo to tod ner oi me aesire to press
her claim. She said bo explained to her
that she couldn't nut him out of his room
without giving him ten days' notice. He
also informed her of the enormous expense
attendant upon filing a suit and of the
trouble and expense she must go to to
have his goods moved out on the street.
After this prospect had been duly pictur
ed to the awed mistress of the house,
promises of an early remittance were
thankfully received. Another roomer whose
delinquency gave him cause for apprehen
sion would let fall an occasional remark
about the large bond a landlord had to
give to insure the safe handling of a ten
ant's goods in case they were put out and
of the large fees the constable had to be
paid for guarding the goods. This Insur
ed him Immunity from duns for a week
longer, at least. A man who occupied
rooms with his family contracted an Ex
emption bug-bear, which also served the
purpose of Increasing his landlady's leni
ency. He explained to her that a man
working to support his family might run
behind in his? rent to a certain amount be
fore the law could Interfere to deprive
him of his quarters. "
Mrs. Gibbons, however, has a new lot of
Information on hands now and the spe
cial landlord "and tenant statutes evolved
from the minds of- her unremitting room
ers will no longer be of avail.
IS H A DOCTOR?
Board of. Health Cause Arrest of Dr.
C. H. Osborne Case la
Continued.
i
Dr. C. H. Osborne, of Kansas City, Kas..
was In police court yesterday morning to
answer to a charge of practicing medicine
without having filed a certificate with the
board of health, as required by law. Dr.
Osborne was arrested by Officer Lillls on a
city warrant sworn out by the health au
thorities. He was not ready for trial and
the case was continued until next Tuesday.
Dr. Osborne lives In Kansas City, Kas.,
and has considerable practice on this side
of the line. He has signed death certifi
cates that have been sent to the health de
partment In due form as a practicing physi
cian. He has never filed a certificate to
practice with the board of health in this
city, and failure to do so is what caused
his arrest. Twice Judge Burnham asked
Dr. Osborne In police court yesterday morn
ing whether he was a graduate of a recog
nized medical school, and both times he
made an evasive reply. About all he would
consent to say was that he had been li
censed to practice In Kansas.
WANTS HIS' DAUGHTER.
J. K. Dyer, of Guthrie, Claims That
She Was Kidnaped From Him
at Sednlln.
J. K. Dyer, of Guthrie. O. T., has written
to Chief of Police? Hayes requesting him to
Institute a search for his 9-year-old daugh
ter, Bessie, who, he claims, was kidnaped
from him at Sedalla a short time ago.
Dyer states that he and his wife separated
several months ago and she took with her
their 5-year-old son. leaving the little
daughter to make her home with her
father. Mrs. Dyer came to Kansas City
and her husband continued to make his
home at Sedalla until he removed to Guth
rie recently.
A short time ago the little girl was
stolen from the home of relatives in Se
dalla, where she was living, and her father
thinks she was brought to Kansas City
by her mother. Dyer alleges that his wife
was brought to Kansas City by a Santa
Fe conductor. He has asked the police to
locate his child and notify him so that
ne can come on ana oDiain possession ot
her. The police will let the couple settle
'their troubles In court.
FIELDING BANKRUPTCY CASE.
Creditors Refuse to Compromise
Claim son a Basis of 50 Cents
on the Dollar.
An unsuccessful effort was, made yester
day by the bankrupt firm of I. H. Field
ing & Co. to compromise with Its cred
itors, on a basis of SO cents on the dollar.
An open session of the federal court was
held all day, and the question was dis
cussed at length by Mr. Fielding and his
attorneys and the attorneys who repre
sent the creditors, without a conclusion be
ing arrived at.

SANITARY MUDDLE
KAXSAS WITHOUT ANY LIVE STOCK
BOARD.
LAWS SHOULD BE REVISED
COLONEL J. G. M'COV EXPRESSES HIS
VIEWS.
Pop Board' Quarantine Line Has Not
Been Promulgated and the Jicw
Board Haa Sot Been Con
firmed anil Has Taken
Xo Action.
"It Is high time that the sanitary laws
of the state of Kansas were revised." said
Colonel J. G. McCoy yesterday, the Kan-s-as
state inspector at tho Rtock yards.
Ho has just returned from the second an
nual meeting of the National Live Stock
Association at Denver.
"At present," continued Colonel McCoy,
"there is no sanitary board and the closed
season began February 1 without a single
inspector. Messrs. Bryden and Beal were
appointed by Governor Leedy, Mr. Riddle
holding over. When the special session re
fused to confirm Leedy appointees, they
went out of office, according to the Kan
sas law, or at least the Interpretation
thereof by a great many. Mr. Bryden re
fused to contest the matter and declared
he would have nothing more to do with
the board.
"Mr. Riddle, however, Induced Mr. Beal
to act with him and they established a
quarantine which cannot become effective
until the governor promulgates it official
ly by a proclamation.
"In the meantime Governor Stanley has
appointed Messrs. Campbell and Chamb
erlain to take the places of Messrs. Bry
den and Beal and refuses to promulgate
any quarantine line, based upon the ac
tion of the old board, acts which the new
board, which has not yet been confirmed,
might not approve."
A distinguished and almost unprecedented
honor was conferred upon Colonel McCoy
and Colonel Majors, formerly of this city
but now of Denver, and upon Mrs. Lillian
M. Gregory, of the Kings and Queens of the
Range, jof this city. They were made the
three members of the honorary branch of
the national association. The formation of
the honorary branch, a sort of roll of
honor, was proposed by ex-Congressman
Dougherty, of Nebraska, and seconded in
an able speech by J. W. Springer, president
of the association. Colonel McCoy repre
sents the pioneer stockman; Colonel Majors
the pioneer freighter, and Mrs. Gregory
was honored for her efforts in behalf ot the
live stock Interests In the publication of her
paper. Colonel Majors, who now lives in
Denver, and is 83 years old, was formerly a
member of the pioneer freighting firm of
Russell, Waddell & Majors, who in early
days did an immense business in freighting
acrbss the plains, using at least 6,000 mules
In their operations.
Colonel McCoy declares that tho conven
tion just closed will accomplish a great
deal for the live stock interests of the
West.
"It was well attended," ho said, yester
day, "and aHY the papers were ablo and
timely. The glaring discrepancies In ratfs
received a great deal of attention and will
be remedied; the feed in transit rate will be
made reasonable and universal. If the con
vention carries out Its plans: the $2 terminal
charge was attacked and a determined
effort will be made to remedy the injustice."

Catarrh In its various forms Is rapldlv

It is no longer a surmise that chronic catarrh can be cured.
