THE SINS OF WOMEN
Truly in the death of Casale Chad
wick at Columbus Thursday night the
oft declared fact that a woman who sins
la never forgiven finds complete verifi
cation. Cassle M. Chadwlck'a entire
peculations did not reach over fifty
thousand dollars, although sensational
lsta tried to make her a millionaire
rogue! She waa but a mediocre swin
dler when ranged with the big grafters
of today and yet she paid the debt of
death as a forfeit for her folly. Never
from the time she was haled into court
did she have the show that a rich male
thief would have been allowed, and
when once the doors of the penlien
tlarv clanged behind her she was de
sertad by former friends, associates and
relatives. Mrs. Chadwlck swindled
only big grafters who In turn lobbed
others, and they should have been thor
oughbreds enough to take their loses In
the game as good losers are supposed to
take theirs. But they were not, and
when the woman could not pay the
"pound of flesh" they insisted on her
Incarceration, and Thursday death
mercifully ended it all. Verily, the
chance that an erring woman has Is
none.

WITHDRAWAL OF PATRONAGE
Arthur W. Shattuck, of the Auto
mobile Company said at a recent meet
log of the Milwaukee Automobile
Trade Association that Milwaukee
paper* devoted column after column to
automobile accldenta In all parts of the
oountry, giving the impression that
motor cars are a menace to human life,
while they tell in about ttn lines that a
switchman was killed in a railroad acci
dent.
-'They give undue prominence to the
automobile as a danger to the public,
and suppress reports of street railroad
accidents," continued Mr. Shattuck.
"I am sucxesting that the newspapers
be forced, by Withdrawing automobile
advertising patronage, to give less
prominence to automobile accidents
than they have been giting of late and
to place more stress on such events
than they do on similar occurrences on
trolley lines and railroads."? The
Fonrth Estate,
The saggestioa did not move the as
sociation to action, as many members
likely were well aware that the with
drawal of patronage from a newspaper
would have the tendency to In no manner
decrease the efforts of a publication
that has a wrong to rectify.
TAINTED MONEY
The overly generous gifts of a
mechanic in Nashville, Tenn,, to his
church aroused the suspicions of detec
tives and led to the msn's apprehension
for the robbery of two packages of
money from a car of the Southern Ex
press company, containing nearly
S8,000. But this circumstance need not
deter any one from making as generous
donations to the church as their means
will allow. As long as a man shows no
Indications of being linked up with
Rockefeller and the Standard Oil trust,
his donation 10 the church Is ltltle
likely to be questioned.

EARTHQUAKES AND VOLCANOES
[.By Sol Ripinsky.]
Editor Dally Skagway Alaskan:
A volcano is an opening made in tbe
earth's crust by internal heat, which
bus forced melted or heated matter
through the vent. An earthquake is
the effect of the confined gases and va
pors, produced by the heat upon the
crust, when the volcanoes, therefore,
get vent, says Dr. Hltcheook. The
earthquake most always ceases, but the
latter has generally been more destruc
tive of lifs and property than the for
mer.
When one city has been destroyed by
volcanic action, like Herculaneum,
Pompeii, Stable and others, thirty
have beea shaken down by the rocking
and heaving of the earthquake. The
reoords of ancient as well as modern
timM abound with examples of these
tremendous catastrophes, Pre-eminent
on the list is the city of Antiocb. Im
agine the inhabitants of the great city,
crowded with strangers on a festival
occasion, suddenly aroused on a cairn
day by the earth heaving and rocking
beneath their feet, and in a few mo
menu 250,000 of them bnried by falling
bouses or the earth opening and swal
lowing them.
Just think of tbe terrible destruction
that came up.^n Lisbon in 1755. The
sun had just dissipated the fog on a
warm, calm morning, wheu suddenly
the subterranean thundering and heav
ing began, and in six minutes the city,
was a heap of ruins and 60,000 of the
inhabitants were numbered among the
dead.
Dec. 26, 1811? Earthquake in South
Carolina and the valley of tbe Missis
sippi. The latttr was convulsed to
such a degree between the mouths of
the Ohio and St. Francis as to create
lakes and Islands, and deep chasms
were formed in tbe ground, from which
vast volnmea of water, sand and co?l
were thrown up to the height of 80 and
70 feet.
March 21, 1829? Great earthquake in
Spain; 4000 houses, 25 churches and
thousand* of people destroyed.

Here is local evidence to piove it:
Mrs. ? Martha Currington, of I7I8
South K 8t.,Tacoma, Wash., says: I can
cheerfully recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills as a remedy which does just what
is claimed for it. Backache and dis
order of the kidneys troubled me for a
number of years. There wore other
symptoms which also showed that the
kidneys were not acting properly. I
used different remedies which were rec
ommended <0 me by friends but I never
used anything that went right to the
root of the trouble like Doan's Kidney
Pillls did. They csn certainly be
relied upon.and will bring satisfactory
results in every case where they are
