While the walks in the Public Garden

at the corner of Beacon and Charles streets
were Mortified to see a man suddenly plunge
a knife repeatedly into his throat and fall to

questioned the would-be suicide, who was
about so years of age, as to his name, address,
and reason for wishing to end his life, but
the man steadfastly refused to give any infor

weak from loss of blood it is probable he

THE OPEN SWITCH.
AN ESTABLISHED SAFEGUARD.


Anybody who travels by cars knows what
is meant by an open switch" 1t is the
terror of railroad men, and the dread of the
traveller. Its victims-killed, horribly man
gled or manned for life-are numbered by
the score each year.
Yet even the dreaded "open switch is not
so widely fatal as is certain disease, which,
without ceasing its activity for an instant, Is
daily filling hundreds of graves.
What is that terrible ailment? you ask.
1t is Heart Diseasei "But," you reply, con-
fidently, al haven't any heart disease-ny
heart is all right" Are you SURE?
DIR. Franklin Miles, of Elkhart, Ind, the
distinguished specialist in diseases of the
heart and nervous system, states that disor-
ders of the heart are as common as those Of
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels or kidneys,
though often unsupported. The reason peo-
pie are not aware of this important fact is
because symptoms of heart disease are not
usually recognized as proceeding from this
organ, but are attributed to some other
source. If you have shortness of breath,
fiuttering or palpitation, pain or tenderness
in left breast, shoulder or side, oppressed or
choking sensation, fainting or smothering
spells, your heart is affected.
81 had been troubled with heart disease
for years. My leftpulse was very weak, could
at times scarcely feel it, excitement would
weaken my nerves and heart, and fear OF

PIONEER PAPER OF KOOTENAI GO
S. D. TAYLOR, Editor and Proprietor

THE Blue Belle mine on Koote
mai Lake produced 1925 tons of
ore from January l to May and
paid handsome dividend. There
are any number of claims within
from to 40 miles of Bonner's
Ferry that will produce higher
grade ore than the Blue Bell and
immense quantities of it. The rea-
sons why these local mines should
not be worked as we'll as the Blue
Bell are only temporary, and very
little from any difference of merit.
The latter laid idle for years and
was considered hardly worth the
trouble of holding. So experienced
a miner as the late Senator Hearst
threw up the proposition at one
time as worthless and what is now
that great property passed into
other hands by mere relocating.
The quantity of ore was not ques-
toned by the Californian, but he
thought it too low grade and too
far from transportation and milling
facilities. Now is this changed.
So in the course of time, and we
believe at no distant day, will the
conditions change along the Amer
lean Kootenai-on the Yahk,
Moyea, Boulder, Grouse Mountain,
Libby, Priest River and other dis
tricts. A little advance in the
price of silver, lead and copper will
give tremendous impetus to the
mining of precious metals Some
day the HERALD will De enabled
to electrify its readers with the
startling announcement that some
large concern is going to put in a
great plant to separate these ores.
The claims that were considered
hardly worth doing assessment
work on, will be bonded and sold
for sums that will make us gasp
for breath.
What is needed now along the
American Kootenai is development
Instead of trying to hold the whole
country down, and to mine with
stakes and location notices, claim
holders would do well to throw VI
all their holdings except a few
choice claims and try to develop a
least one into a mine. By doing 81
some claim owner is likely to max,
such a showing as will attract cap
itsl, and, when the ice is one
broken, it is easy sailing after tina
for the entire district. 1t would
also give others chance to get il
and relocate claims which the pres
ent owners never would develoI
probably. 1t would bring addition
al energy and possibly some capita
and every new district needs al
the help it can get-muscle as wei
as money.

DIR. FRAZER COMES no LIFE.
He SvindIed Insurance Companies
Out of $5S,OOO.
From the New York Sun.


Duluth, Mimi. Sept. 2.-Living in the
wilds of Northern Minnesota, fifty miles
from a postoffice, with only a boy for a
companion, DR.. George w. Fraker, who
planned one of the most successful insur-
ance swindles of modern times, was to-
day captured by officers who have been
on his track for the past two years Up
to Aug. II last a standing reward of $40 =
900 for his arrest was offered by the insur-
ance companies.
In the latter part of 1893 DR.. G. w Fra
ker was the physician at the ST. Elmo ho-
tel in Excelsior Springs, a health resort
near Kansas City With seven or eight
companions, the doctor went fishing on
the Missouri river one day, and after dark
while in the company of George Harry.
James Triplet, and Jake Crowley, negro,
he disappeared, and was seen no more.
These three men afterward swore posi-
lively that they witnessed his drowning
while rowing in leaky boat but after a
strict search his body could not be recov-
cred.
Some three or four months previous to
this he began loading up with life insur-
ance, taking $4,000 in the Kansas Mutual
Life of Topeka, $4,000 in the Hartford
Life and Annuity $4,000 in the Provident
Savings Life of New York, 5000 in the
benevolent societies of that place and
$4,000 in other companies, a total of $751;
900. Immediately after his disappearance
the insurance companies held conference
and discovered that while the doctors in
come was only about 81 800 a year his
premiums amounted to $1,000 annually.
Besides this, George Harry and James
Triplet, who sWore to having witnessed
Fraker's death, were men of bad charac-
ter. Harry was arrested the other day in
Eastern Missouri on a charge of having
committed burglary in New Mexico. Trip
let was a well-znown character in the In
dian Territory, and is said to have been
drowned a short time ago.
Before going on his fishing excursion
Fraker had drawn all his money from the
bank, saying he was about to leave for
California to bring home the orphan chill
dren of his deceased uncle. Forty thou
sand dollars of the insurance money was
payable to his brother-in-law in trust
for the children. DR.. Fraker, who prac-
ticed medicine for eight years, was an
active leader in Sunday school work, but
held rather peculiar views on religious sub
jeets.
After a thorough investigation all the
companies except the Equitable refused
to pay the claims, whereupon James e.
Lincoln, the executor of the will, brought
suit in the district court a Liberty Mo.
which was afterward transferred to the
United States circuit court at Kansas City.
Robert T. Herrick was appointed to
conduct the case for the companies and
was assisted by eminent lawyers. In the
