PRISONER DODGED
And Deputy Sheriff Fletcher Helm
Lost Him.

At $3.50 Monday afternoon Sheriff
Fletcher Helm lost a prisoner, Robert
Lampkin, who had just been convicted
of selling liquor.
Lampkin was a city prisoner. He
appealed his case and a jury in the dis
trict court affirmed the decree of Police
Judge Atchison. Judge Hazen imposed
the sentence of 80 days in jail and
Deputy Helm started for the city jail
to deliver the prisoner to Chief Steele.
When the two men reached the alley
which separates the city Jail yard from
that of the county Jail Lamplxin lodged
behind Helm and started down the al
ley. Helm started after him and gained
upon his man but Lampkin picked up a
large stone and threw it at the officer
which again give him start.
Deputy Helm had no revolver and the
two men turned west on Fourth street
and were soon out of sight.

These are two great men. One is
Prof. Lewis Swift, the astronomer, who
has discovered more comets than any
man who ever lived before upon the
earth. The other is Prof. S. A. Latti-
more, Vice-President of the University
of Rochester, Professor of Chemistry
and Analyst of Foods and Medicines of
the New York State Board of Health.
Both these men are careful obser-
vers and deeply interested in every
thing that can in any way help people
to longer life and more happiness.
Hence it comes that after careful OBJ
servation they unhesitatingly endorse
a popular preparation.
Professor baltimore says:

BROKERS TO PAY LICENSE.
Chicago Will at Once Take Steps to
Enforce Law.

Chicago, April 26.-By the decision of the
state supreme court sustaining the city s
claim that stock brokers and board of
trade men must pay an annual license fee
of $25 in accordance with ordinance
passed years ago but never enforced until
the present regime. City Prosecutor Tay-
lor believes the citys revenues will be in
creased about $4,000
About $50 stock brokers and 800 board of
trade men, it is estimated, are affected.
Under the construction of the law these
men are also liable for the fees during
the last two years. Steps will al once
be taken for the collection of this money,
legal force to be resorted to if necessary.
