Hoivi Soit Q\ii Mai y Pense.
Garter Given to a Girl Fifteen Years Ago Causes Fight In State
Capitol at Des Moines, la.
A garter with a pretty silk ribbon
and a "frnt" engraved buckle was at
the bottom of the vicious assault of
Carl M. Clemens of Washington, la.,
upon R. H. Dosh In the rtate capltol
at Dea Moines, la.
r
Some fifteen years a :o Dj. 'a and
Mrs. Clemens were college mates and
warm friends at Simpson college, In
dlanola. Ia.. and Dosh bought the gar
ter and gave it to Mrs. Clemens.
This was years before Clemens met
the lady uptyi the Pacific coast, where
she was visiting friends, but he has
never liked Oie donor of the garter
and has been Insanely Jealous of Dosh.
Mrs. Clemens and Dosh have not met
for years, neither have they corre
sponded, but this made no difference to
Clemens, and he has brooded over the
gnrter and Its "frat" buckle with the
engraved initials, and nothing that
Mrs. Clemens could say would coel his
anger.
So when Clemens met Dosh at the
capltol In Des Moines a few days ago
and asked him, "How about that gar
ter?" nothing that Dosh could say
would clear up the matter, and bo
Clemens struck him. In the ensuing
mlxup Dosh was seriously hurt This
explanation of the light was given by
one of Clemens' friends, who asoerts
that that is all there is to the deadly
feud of years and that Clemens la In
sanely Jealous of Dosh.
Doeh refuses to talk and will not
make a statement He murmured
something about a garter In the de
lirium which followed the beating
Clemeus gave him, but since he re
gained consciousness he has refused t*
say a word. He realizes that any
statement from him may reflect upon
his old school day friend. Because of
this It Is possible he may refuse to
appear against Clemens, nnd the case
may be dropped in police court, and
Clemens can return to Washington and
continue to guide the course of the
Democratic state central committee, of
which he Is chairman, and also con
duct his extensive lumber business aud
be the pride of the football fans as
though nothing had happened.
Passenger Train Loses Its Way.
Gets on to Wrong Track Through Switchman's Error and Is
Chased by an Express.
A passenger train on the Northern
of France line literally lost Its way the
other night and had a narrow escape
from being telescoped by an express
which was behind It
The train left for Amiens at 6 p. m.
All went well until after leaving Crell,
where the line to Brussels and Ger
many and Holland branches off. Ow
ing to a mistake of the signalman,
which yet remains unexplained, the
Amiens train was switched on to the
Brussels line, and In the dark the en
gine driver did not discover the mis
take until the train had proceeded a
mile or two on the line to Brussels.
Then, remembering that th? Brussels
express was only a few minutes be
hind him, the driver decided to put on
full speed and go right ahead. It was
an exciting experience for everybody
The passengers, finding that the train
was traveling nt full speed and run
ning through the stations, became
alarmed and pulled the danger signal.
The train ran on to the Junction at
Point St. Maxtncc. where the driver
hurriedly explained the matter to the
signalman and was shunted on to a
siding two minutes before the arrival
of the exnrefs. At last the train waa
sent back to Crell and resumed its
journey to Amiens a couple of hours

sick kidneys, put new strength in bad
backs ?
W. H. Wood of 250 cottage St., Sa
lem. Ore., aays: ''A good many years
ago I got badlv kicked by a mule right
over the kidneys and at another time
while digging a well it caved in on me
also injuring my back. Since then I
have had more or lees annoyance from
my Kidneys Change of weather causcd
my back to ache and when I worked
hard it became so lame thst I could
hardly straighten up after stooping, I
procured Doan's Kianey Fills at a drug
store and since taking them, although
I have continued to work hard and be
exposed to severe weathe,, not an ache
or other symptoms of my former
trouble remains. This clearly proves
(hat Doan's Kidney Pills act up to
representations made of them. I also
know of other people who h ive derived
;?reai benefit from their use. I am glad
to let others know the merits of Doan's

There Is more Catarrh in this seotion
of the country than all o'ber diseases
put together, and until the last few
vears was supposed to bo incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease and pre
scribed local remedic., and by constant
ly failing to cure with local troatment,
prononnced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
diaea-e and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. H ll's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co ,
Toledo, Ohio is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken inter
nally In doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonfnl. It acts directly on the bloDd
and mucous surfaces of the system,
they offer one hundred dollars for any
case it to cure. Send for circular
