Reader, did you ever take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR, the "KING OF
LIVER MEDICINES ?" Everybody needs
take liver remedy. 1t is sluggish or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to =
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid of these trou-
bles, and give tone to the whole sys-
tenn. For laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. It
does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.

A Father Murdered by His Son
at LeavenwOrth.

Potato Fork.

Rev. Mr.. Brumbaugh Refuses to
Take it Back.

LEAvENwoRTH. July 5.-Martin S.
Smith died Wednesday night at F. c.
Browns private asylum, from the effects
of blow on the head sustained early in
the morning at the hands of his son, John
E. Smith.
When the news of his fathers death
was carried to the son he did not seem to
be disturbed in the least, and talked IN
concernedly about it. Not a tear did he
shed and no word of sorrow or regret
passed his lips. He said he struck his
father down in self defense and WIS pre-
pared to prove it. So far as is known
his mother was the only other person
present to witness the tragedy.
The fatal quarrel, it seems, started
over digging potatoes The son had
planted potatoes and the father was dig
ging them. The son came along and
ordered him to let the potatoes alone.
Hot words passed between father and
son, and almost before the father knew it
he was rolling on the ground. The i'm
plement used in the parricide was po-
tato digger or fork. The blow broke it.
The charge of felonious assault against
John E. Smith will be changed to wilIful
murder His preliminary examination is
set for July g.

ATTACK THE INSURANCE LAW.
COnstitutiOnality of the Law Exem ptinS
Life Insurance Companies.

ConstitutiOnality of the Law ExemptinG
Life Insurance Companies.
ABILENE, July 5.-The constitutional
ity of the law passed by the last legisla-
ture which exempts all life insurance,
not only from taxation and debts of the
assured, but from all debts OF the bene-
ficiaries regardless of the amount of it,
was argued before Judge Humphrey in
the district court here yesterday, in tho
case of Peter Forseland VS.. Mrs. Hafner.
Mr.. Hafner died a short time ago and
was insured for IS, 500 in various com
panies and fraternal orders, including
the A, O. .. w. Forseland had a note
signed by both Mr.. and Mrs Hafner for
$500, and garnisheed the aforenamed
companies.
Alter answer showing the Indebtedness
d motion was made. nominally by Mrs.
Hafner, but in reality by the Kansas
Mutual company, to dismiss the action
upon the ground that the record shows it
was exempt under this law.
The points of attack are:
First, that it is retroactive in its effect
and applies to contracts made prior to
the enactment of the law and therefore
is in conflict with the constitution of the
United States in that it sim pairs the OBJ
legation of contract"
Second, it contains several subjects
and is in violation of the state cOnstitu-
ton which provides that mo bill shall
contain more than one subject" Tax
alton, debts of beneficiary or assured,
and others are mentioned in it.
Third, there is no limit to the amount
of money SO exempted and is therefore
invalid and class legislation.
Fourth, it exempts from taxation a
certain class of property and is void I'M
der the constitution which provides that
taxation shall be uniform"
The was case taken under advisement
by Judge Humphrey.

Although at first disinclined to do so,
James finally consented, when Mr.. Gunst
insisted on sending telegram to his
father notifying him of his trouble and
getting him to send money to pay his
tine. The money came and James fine
was paid. The young man told his bene-
factor that he was just touring around
the country on the commonweal plan
for little experience and was
arrested on suspicion while &C.
cupying bench near the
Illinois Central depot He did not send
word homo as he did not want his folks
to know that he had been arrested.

Willie is no criminal, although he hap
pens to be a cousin of the famous James
brothers, the outlaws, but he is a gentle
man, born and raised. He is supposed
to be working in Kansas City, where he
has other relatives.
