Bold ATTEMPT at Kiduapjns

There was bold attempt made by
Chas. Joyner Of Butte City. Mont, to
kidnap his three-year-old child from
its mother, at the home of Lawyer
Yves Ready en- North Jefferson avenue
between Sand 8 o'clock Sunday night.
Mr.. Ready frustrated the ATTEMPT and
gave Joyner severe whipping.
Mrs. Joynsr, who is a sister of Mrs
Ready, came here from Butte CITY
over a week ago to reside, she having
left her husband on account of mis- ex.
IRENE cruelty towards her. Her two
boys, aged two and three years res.
pectively, accompanied her. Mrs.
Joyner said nothing to her husband
about their destination when they
left Butte City. He learned that she
bought tickets for Wellington, and
followed her, arriving here Saturday
last.
Sunday he located his wife, and in
the evening while Mr.. and Mrs. Ready
and the Older JOyner baby were out
driving he went to the Ready home
and entered unceremoniously with the
expectation of finding the child he
wanted. He was disappointed, and
sat down and began talking to his
wife, pleading for her to return with
him. While they were talking Mr..
and Mrs. Ready returned from their
drive and drove up to the barn.
Mrs. Ready and the older Joyner
baby entered the house and saw Joy-
ner talking to his wife. She did not
know him, but surmising that it was

tened to the barn to tell MIR. Ready
Mr. Ready sent his wife back into the
house, saying that he would be in
soon. When Mrs. Ready left the house
for the barn she left the child in the
room with its parents. Joyner, after
another fruitess effort to get his wife
t. return with him, suddenly reached
for his older baby and ran out the
back door Of the house. Mrs. Ready
returned from the barn in zine to
inherent him at the door. She
grabbed him and the women and
children began screaming. Joyner,
with Mrs. Ready holding on to him
for dear life, managed TO reach the
middle of the street before Mr..
Ready, who was attracted by the
screams, could arrive. Mr.. Ready
knocked Joyner down and choked him
until he released his hold on the
child. He intended to march
him down town and turn him over to
the police. but JOyner begged piteOus-
ly to be allowed his freedom, prOmls,

mother has for two years past been

The incident Sunday night attracted
quite a crowd of people who live on

IT IS EASY TO TELL.

People who fail to look after their health
are like the carpenter who neglects to sharpen
his tools. People are not apt to get anxious
about their health soon enough. If you are
mot quite well' or "half sick'' have you
ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness
1t is easy TO tell by setting aside your urine
for twenty-four hours ; a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys. When urine stains linen it is
evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent
desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull
ache in the back is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are ont of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing that the
great remedy DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, full
fills every wish in relieving weak or diseased
kidneys and all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles. Not only does Swamp Root give
new life and activity to the kidneys-the cause
of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts
as tonic for the entire constitution. If you
need a medicine take Swamp Root-it cures.

leaders at Washington, that the
Lodge immigration bill would be
called up in the H ouse the early part
of this month. Recent events, how
ever, go to show that those Congress
men seeking n denomination, includ-
ing the representative from this dis
trict, have not the courage to place
themselves upon record on this ques-
ton, and will allow the bill to die IA
natural death. 1t has already passed
the Senate, and Mr. Brumm has
given assurances TO some of his con
stituents that he would demand, in
open session, that the bill be called
up for consideration. Thus far he
has failed to do So Commenting
upon this subject, the Hazleton

Congressman who fear the votes of
the very men they have encouraged
to come to this country, so they could

fear the votes of the cheap labor ele-
ment, recently granted citizenship,
more than they do the American
working classes, who have paid the
taxes, built up the country, and who
now see their avenues of employ
ment cut off, wages reduced and OBJ
liged to live from hand TO mouth.
The Congressman, with mad haste,
gave the millionaire capitalists any

sion of the Legislature, which con-
venes today. The appointment of a

vestigation of the subject at the regu-
lar session Of the Legislature next win
ter, will be- urged as a compromise
measure. The Pingree bill was com
pleted yesterday. 1t provides for ap-
pointment by the governor of a state
board of five assessors, the auditor
general to be president thereof, who
shall assess all railroad, telegraph, ex-
press and telephone companies taxes,
the assessments to be at the average
rate of taxes on other properties for
the previous year. The corporations
named are required to file sworn state
ments of all their property, real and
personal, and gross receipts from ali
sources and such other facts as the
board may require. The companies
franchises are also to be assessed at
their true cash values.

yesterday unanimously passed the bill
for the relief of the survivors and vic
tins of the Maine disaster. The bill
reimburses the surviving officers and
men for the losses they sustained to
an amount not to exceed years sea
pay, and directs the payment of
sum equal to a years pay to the legal
heirs of those who perished. There
was quite a spirited debate over an

reimburse them for actual losses
Some old alleged scandals in connection
with the reimbursement of the sur
Vivors OF the Samoan disaster were

saved from a rather sordid tone by a
beautiful tribute paid to the gallant
dead by Mr.. Cousins of Iowa, in a
short but eloquent speech. He aroused
the galleries to spontaneous applause

Another Successful Trial Trip of Iol-

Perth Amboy, n. j., March 22.-The
Holland submarine boat made another
trip from here yesterday. At a depth
of 10 feet under water she showed
good speed, and was handled with ease.
After she came to the surface the
boat grounded in the soft mud and was
hauled off by the tug Erie which
acted as a tender. The boats coming
tower will be filled with electric lights
before another trip is made.
The trial of the Holland in deeper
water will probably occur during the
latter portion of the week Both the
guns are in need of repairs. as the
brooches now admit air, and there are
other details aboard that need atten-
tion. When this has been done the
Holland will start for a long trip in
deep water in the lower bay, and
probably will remain submerged for
two miles. Her guns will then be fired
for the first time. 1t is probable that
the Holland will be taken to Washing
ton next week. She will be tested In
fresh water at the capital.
