Mack Tucker Injured.

Mack Tucker was painfully, though
not seriously, Injured 10 the Santa
Fe yards at II o'clock Monday night
while attempting to make coupling

engine approached car. His foot
slipped and he slid to ward the ground
The engine was going very slowly
and only afew feetintervened between
the engine and the car when he fell
The engine bumped the car anC
caught him between thepllOt and the
end of the car, pinChing him severely
His left side was bruised considerably
He was unable to walk after the
accident occurred. The employees OF
the round house brought him home
where he will be compelled to remain
on his back several days. Mack
carries an accident policy in a rail
road insurance company by which he
will draw 81 per day during his incon
yelience.

Gold Versus Life

Men are at present risking their
lives for gold. There is a stampede
of eager, willing martyrs to the in
hOspitiable country of the Klondyke.
Many will perish from cold and hunger.
Not one quarter Of the people who 20
there will ever return. Not one-half
Of those who do return will return
any richer than they went. They will
not only endanger their health, but
their lives, for the sake OF gold. And
yet everybody says that health is
more precious than gold. The thing
which restores health is, therefore,
more precious than gold. Pe-ru-Da
restores health, cures all forms OF
weakness, all forms and stages of
catarrh, builds up broken down con-
situations, brings new life back TO all
those who have become prematurely

what he was doing there. The man
sprang to his feet in an instant and
whipped out his revolver. He fred
three shots at Mr.. Purcell. The first
shot went under the porch, The Sec

tered the side OF the house and was

morning.
After the fellow had fired the three
Shots he ran to the west hedge fence
and snapped his revolver at Mr.. Pur-
cell again. Then Mr.. Purcell opened
fire and emptied three or four cham
bers OF his revolver at the retreating
man. The fellow escaped through
the hedge and ran north on Jefferson
avenue.
The night marshal was sent for and
q search instituted for the man.
Quincy Barnes ran across him In the

As the fellow fell he reached for his
revolver and Quincy disappeared.
Henderson was arrested few min.
untes later on Harvey avenue near
the Arlington hotel. He had lost his
hat 10 going through the hedge fence
at Mrs. Showalter's residence. His
face and hands were badly scratched
by the hedge. The ground near the
fence where the man made his escape
from the yard looked this morning
like desperate struggle had taken
place. He has a faint remembrance
of hearing several shots, but further
than that his mind seems to be
blank. he was undoubtedly crazed
by liquor at the time. Henderson
is probably "a years of age and is
mild looking individual.

Exciting Time With a Drunken han

DAILY journal, wednesday.
Mrs. John T. ShOwalter and family
aud J. NJ. Purcell had an exciting ex-
perience with Joseph Henderson, a
farmer living few miles west of
Perth, about $50 o'clock last night at
the home OF Mrs. ShOwalter in the
Fifth ward. Henderson fired thlee
shot at close range at Mr.. Purcell,
who returned the fire. Neither of
them were hurt. Henderson was
arrested by Night Marshal John Mil
lard and Perry Spar and taken to
Jail. This morning he plead guilty in
police court to disturbing the peace
and was fined $50 and costs, amount.
ing to about $50.
Henderson appeared at the Show
alter residence about o'clock last
evening. A party of young folks had
gathered there for a social time. As
he approached the house Mrs. Show
alter and some of the young folks who
were sitting on the front porch heard
him coming. He was singing and
they went to the gate to meet him,
thinking it was one Of the arrivals at
the party. The man appeared to
stagger and when spoken to did not
respond, but continued approaching
them. They were somewhat fright
eled at first but as the man entered
the gate Mrs. ShUwalter thought
surely she recognized him as one Of
the boys who had been invited to her
house. She took hold of his arm and
said in joking manner:
"You ought to be killed for trying
TO scare US"
The man did not reply, but pulled
revolver out Of his hip pocket and
held it in Mrs. ShOwalter's face. She
realized her mistake and she and the
young folks ran into the house, clos
ing the door behind them.
The fellow followed them up and
attempted to gain entrance to the
house. He broke the glass in the
door with bis revolver and created
terror and CONSERVATION among the
women folks by threatening to kill
them. There was only one boy ia the
party 10 protect the ladies and he was
as badly frightened as any of them.
The girls ran into an inner room and
locked themselves in while the
drunken man prOw!ed around the
house trying to gain entrance. The
fellow finally staggered of the porch
and fell asleep on the ground.
The girls ran out the back way and
ought the assistance Of ]. NJ. Purcell,
who 10 company with W.D. Whitfield
and Will Davidson, went over to the
house for the purpose of arresting the
man. They found him lying on the
ground near the front porch. Mr..

ment Of the law now known as the
malt ordinance. He also addressed
the council on the question of its re-
peal from the standpoint Of a tax
payer. The mayor was very much
"agin" it.
Rev. Hoyt declared that the laws of
Kansas now practically leave with
city administrations the power and
responsibility Of multiplying the pro-
hibitory law. He thought that money
that was tainted with crime and bore
the Odium Of coming from the liquor
business should not be touched by the
city.
Rev. ]. G. Cunningham asked the
city attorney if he thought that the
malt ordinance stood in the way Of
his successful prosecution Of jointists.
Mr.. Woods replied;
81 have never tried it. Other at
tOrneyS before me have attempted to
prosecute, but failed. That was the
Experience Of A. E. Parker. The or
dinance is in the way"
A few minutes afterward, when
Mr.. Woods was asked by one OF the
cOuncilmen to give his opinion on the
effect Of the malt ordinance in con-
victing jOintists he replied, speaking
of his experiences as county attorney;
81 have always found the ordinance
valuable in proving that the jointists
paid $500 per year to the city to viO'
late the prOhibitory law. l do not
think that the malt ordinance is a
barrier. have convicted in all cases
l ever prosecuted"
County Attorney Rogers in reply
to a question as TO his probable course
in the event the ordinance Was re-
pealed, said:
ut has been my observation and
experience so far, since studying this
question, that where the city officers
assist in enforcing the prOhibltOry
law, it was a success. Where the city
officers are against the laws enforce.
ment, efforts to convict fail. So far
as | am concerned | shall be ready to
do all l can to uphold the laws of the
state, and believe it will be much
easier to enforce the laws when the
city takes all obstacles out Of the
way. / can't promise that the joints
will be closed if this ordinance is re-
pealed. l don't know what the out
come will be-"
City Marshal Grinstead stated that
he would do everything in his power
to suppress the liquor traffic.
In reply to the question from Mr..
Graft, "Will you stand right up and
assist the officers by word and action
in bringing to justice all viOlatOrs Of
the prohibitOry law; will you come
forward and work, do all you can and
not lay down and be afraid to speak
and act, if we will repeal this ordi-
nance?" Rev. Hnyt, Sumner Whit
son, W. Fl. Schultz, Willis X. Folks
and II. A. Doughty gave their assent.

damages which the plaintiff might sus-
tain by reason of negligent or unneces-
sary delay in the delivery. The question
then to be considered and determined on
this branch of the case may properly be
formulated as follows: Has the contract
or stipulation named, the legal effect of
restricting said liability by reason of the
telegram being an unrepeated message,
no mistake having been made in the ten
or thereof?
1t clearly appears to US that no such eff
feet was intended or contemplated by Ell
ther of the contracting parties when they
entered into the contract. The evident
| and only objects in having telegraphic
messages repeated are to enable the Oper-
| ators, transmitting and receiving the
same, over the wires, to readily detect
and correct any mistakes or errors they
might make in the message as received
for transmission and delivery, and thus
enable the defendant to avoid such errors
and their legal consequences. A delay,
! or the nOn-delivery of a message might
/ be caused by mistake made by the opera
! tors in the name or the address of the per-
son to whom the message is sent, which
might be detected and corrected, if the
message was repeated and thereby delay
| or the non-deliverv of the message be
avoided. If the delay complained Of in
| this case was attributable to any such
| mistake counsel's contentious and argu-
ments, in behalf of the appellant, would
