Kidnapped a Boy and Secured $25,000
Ransom. -Boers Worrying the
British Badly. Final Agreement
Reached Between Powers In China.
A sensational kidnapping cnne has
excited the whole country the past
wee. 1 he fifteen-year-old son ot Jv
A. Cudaby, the wealthy packer ot
Omaha, was seized while in the street
one evening last week and taken by
unknown men to a lonely house where
he was kept under closo surveilance
until the abductors could demand
ransom from his lather, liy letters
they offered to return the boy unhurt
at a certain time it the lather would
drive outside the city to a . point
dctsisrnated and leave Sfi.iXK) in "old
otherwise they threatened to put out
the boy's eyes. The terrilled parents
concluded to accept the terms and the
lather lull the bag ot gold weighing
nearly 100 pounds btside a lantern lelt
by one ot the rascals, who soon made
off with it. Even then it was un
certain whether the boy would be
returned, but he was set down near
his home the same night unharmed
lie has been able to identify the place
where he was held, but nobody has
yet been arrested. - it appears that the
utmost penalty for this offence in
Nebrat-ka is only one year in prison
Encouraged by the success of this bold
scheme, other kidnapping cases have
occurred in various localities and
wealthy parents are thoroughly
alarmed.

At last, alter almost endless compli
cations, the several governments
interested in China have all signed a
demand on the Chinese government.
covering peace terms. It has been
presented to the Chinese commission
ers and a favorable reply is antic

send an aiology to Germany for the
murder of Von Jvetteler and to erect a
monument to him; the severest
punishment of the Boxer leaders ; no
arms shall be imported; indemnities
for all damages and injuries caused by
the Chinese uprising; each power has
the right to tortiiy and guard its

After Sickness
Take Yinol Our Creat
Strength Creator.
IT GIVES ONE A SPLENDID
APPETITE.
AND QUICKLY REBUILDS
THE SYSTEM.
We Will Refund the Price of
Vinol If It Fails.
The worst part of sickness, frequent
ly! is getting- over it.
The patient's strength is depleted,
bis system is generally demoralized,
relapses are continually feared, and
naturally.
The one thing to aid recovery is to
give the patient that which will enable
him to get strong, and at the same timo
give strength direct to the different
organs of the body.
N othing will do this like Vinol.
It acts directly on the stomach, cre
ates a healthy appetite, and enables
the digestive organs to obtain the nec
essary elements to increase the weight
of the patient and to make new healthy
flesh and muscle tissue and pure, rich,
red blood.
The following is a letter showing
where Vinol was taken and did good
after a case of sickness. It reads as
follows :
" I wish to certify to the very great
benefit which has been derived from
the use of Vinol in my family. My
wife was very sick with the grippe and
afterward was wholly run down. One
bottle of Vinol places her on her feet
in better condition than she had been
before in six months. I heartily rec
ommend and endorse it." Henry F.
Stubtevant, 81 Huntington St, Brock
ton, Mass.
Everything that is in Vinol Is
plainly printed on the label of
each package.
We know Vinol Is a splendid
preparation, and in many cases
we have been able to see for our
selves the wonderful results it
brings about.
Remember that we guarantee
Vinol and refund the purchase
money if you are not satisfied.
