from the dreadful disease which threatened
to yitiaie my life and one that has made lite
miserable for thousands and filled innumer-

ease known as rheumatism, and which held
undispuied sway until its cOnquering enemy

Il happened TO learn Of the wonderful
power OF DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale

suffering had made me incredulous as | had
spent many dollars for other remedies with

derived no benefit until he commenced to
take Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People

This proves that this remedy is the best

STRIKERS AWFUL SETBACK
Disastrous EHdIaS OF a RiOt on
FnirYIeW.

It is thought that the street car strike
will be brought TO an end in few days.
the strikers having received terrific
blow late last night In the afternoon
another attempt was made TO blockade
the West Side line, but Mayor Ross had
stationed a squad Of police on South Sem
eca who put cotton In their ears and
lined up on each side of the track and
held the mob at bay while the cars went
by. Mayor Ross has ordered supply OF
cotton for all the police who are expected
to 60 near the cars while they are in mo-
ton.
The attempt on the West Side having
failed, the mob surrounded four cars up
on Fairview that had taken a party OF
picnickers out in the afternoon. The mo-
torneers were dragged of and Immediate
" ran for the shade. The motorneer on
the regular Fairview car served as sort
of balance to the car and when he was
taken off by the bowling mob the weight
was unequally divided and one end OF
the car Immediately dropped on the
tracks. Then the mob turned the cars
on side, took the trolley levers and
wound them around the poles that hold
up the trolley wire and tied them with
wire taken along in hundred pound lots
BY each motorneer to wrap the motor in
case of emergencies. The cars being Sc
curely tied. the mob drove the motor
neers out of the shade toward the river
and then came back and threw bombs at
the cars for several hours. Not making
any perceptible change in the condition
Of the coaches, the mob lay down TO
rest. They were worn from several days
anxiety and struggle and dozed little.
Frank Noyes had to walk home. When
he got up on Fairview and saw the cars
lariated he was mad. He went to Judge
Jewett's and borrowed q handsaw and
proceeded to saw the levers loose The
noise woke the strikers. who yelled and
made for Mr.. Moves, but at that moment
he had sawed the last strand OF wire
from the poles and all four OF the levers
few out, moving down the mob like
tub rolled into n field OF ten-pins. There
were nineteen wounded and they put in
the rest of the night splitting the sand
out OF their mouths.
All was quiet at ; o'clock this morning
except Frank Noyes,who has recovered
from his anger for having to walk home
and had come down to the court house
20 take a good laugh at the disaster he
had brought upon the strikers. He was
ioined by J. Giles Smith. Doc Shuts.
Mayor Ross. Tony Bruhn and Major Nc
MILAN.
No strikers were to be seen at O'Clock.

|. M. CRAWFORD'S DOWNFALL
He Says Began with Building Of
wichita Opera House.


IN Crawford, who built the Wichita
opera house and who lately filed pc
tRion IN bankruptcy at Topeka, claims
that his investment in the. Crawford
Grand here during the boom was the
start of his financial downfall. The CEN
trail National bank and the Bank Of To-
peka are contesting claims upon the To-
peka opera house and the case is being
heard in court and Crawford has made
a statement of his business dealings for
the last twenty years, relating To the
story of the formation Of the Kansas
Missouri and Nebraska Opera House
company, one Of the most extensive
amusement circuits in the United States.
telling how he built uD his business. and
finally relating TO the reverses that caus-
ed him to lose his property.
Mr. Crawford estimated his wealth In
the SOS as being about $l5O.O00. His opera
house circuit Melted him $1,000 for the
year ending September, 1892; the year fol-
lowing. S22li4 He put over $4,000 in the
Wichita opera house, he claimed. ami
when the boom collapsed he sold the
property for $4,000. making him loser
over 500 This was the beginning Of
his financial reverses. The year following
the Omaha opera houses. on which he
had leases. were burned and he estimat-
Ell that he lost $1,000 on them.
The Missouri. Kansas and Nebraska
Opera House company was organized as
a corporation. Mr.. Crawford said. in order
to enable him to capitalize it for a great
er amount than he could have done as an
Individual The company was bonded for
SSO.O0O. but the bonds were never sold and
they are now held by the Bank of Topeka

Loss of Her Home.
SUPPOSED TO BE SUICIDE

AIRS. Mcclure. an aged widow Of an old
soldier, was found unconscious in the
street at the corner Of Water street and
Douglas avenue yesterday afternoon at
about O'Clock. She was in commissions
when the patrol wagon arrived. She was
taken 70 the police station where City
Physician Jordan visited her and ordered
her taken to St. Francis hospital. where
she died at hah-past o'clock last night.
Ii l. thought Mrs. Mcclure committed
suicide She is reported 10 have been de-
spondent over losing her home at the cor
ner OF Central and Sherman avenues
few months ago, and While her pension
of IS per month would ordinarily have
been suf3cient TO have supported her, It
would not do so now that she had lost
her home and was addicted TO the use Of
costly drugs.
Mrs Mcclure is said TO have been adj
dicted 10 the use OF morphine TO a great
degree. When searched at the police sta
tton there were found In her grip two
morphine bottles and a quantity of alco-
hol. One morphine bottle was empty,
while the other was more than hak full.
About two ounces of alcohol was re-
naming in the half-pint bottle The COM
bined use of the alcohol and morphine IS
supposed TO have made Mrs. Mcclure wild
and she started down town in the hOc sun.
The effects Of the sun made the drugs 90
their work more quickly than il she had
remained in her room, and when she
reached the corner of Douglas and Water
she fell PROSTATE in the street She never
regained consciousness but died in terri
BILE agony at St. Francis hospital
While at the police station Mrs. Mcclure
suffered awful commissions. FrOth issued ,
from her mouth and her face was so dis
torted that Mr.. Downing. who had known
her before. did not recognize her, and Ii
was not until after she had been removed
to the hospital that her name could be
learned. The police thought she would
die at the station. but DR.. Jordan sue
ceeded in prolonging her life by means
OF hypodermic injections. She was too
near death to be saved
Il Is not known whether or not the dead
woman has any relatives here 10 care for
her remains. That will be ascertained
today by the old soldiers.

Fair Plan q Lift.
The enthusiasm with which all Wichita
received the idea Of a street fair should

most important current enterprises the
city has ever undertaken. It is a step in
educating people into coming here every
year. People will learn to expect some
thing here every fall and they will make
their plans months ahead to come. They
will bring their money and they Will
spend it for clothing. books, merchandise
Of every kind.
