TRAGIC ACT OF INSANE MAN.
John Goodsen Attempts Double MUIR
der and Then Blows Out
His Own Brains.

GRANT CITY. MO-, Feb. 21-(special)
John Goodsell, son Of A. Goodsell. a prom
inent hardware merchant of this city, en-
tered the store to-day and without warn
ing opened fire with revolver upon his
father and Peter Hudson, an attorney. The
parent escaped unhurt. Hudson's jaw was
shattered by bullet. Young Goodsell
turned the weapon on himself and blew
out his brains.
Goodsell has always been eccentric and
committed the deed of to-day while tenn
porarily insane. He walked into the store
about o'clock and, going behind the coun-
ter. filled all of the chambers of a 3S-cal-
iber revolver. He fired shot through the
floor and then, walking to where his father
and Attorney Hudson were talking, said:
What did You say, Pete?" without wait
Ing for reply, he fired at his father the
bullet imbedding itself in n package of let
tiers In Mr.. Goodsell's pocket He fired
second shot without effect and then turned
his attention to Mr.. Hudson. The ball d.
rected at the attorney took effect In the
mouth, entering at one corner knocking
out five front teeth, and going out at the
other.
Young Goodsel then placed the m,,zzle
of the revolver to his own head and blew
out his brains. The dead man was unmar.
ried, ~ years of age, and resided with his
father.

MADISON, WIS. Feb. 21.-Professor r.
w. Wood, instructor in physics in the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, has originated the
idea Of thawing out frozen water pipes
with electricity and made two successful
experiments. He takes the electric current
used for street lighting purposes. attaches
one wire to the frozen pipe inside the cellar
OF one house and the other wire to
similar pipe in the adjoining or any other
house. thus completing the circuit. A cur
rent of about fitty volts is then turned on,
heating the pipes and melting the ice with

public sentiment to recognize that an indi-
vidual who Is a vielator of the laws of
the land is a proper person to legislate
laws; therefore be 1t :
Resolved, That We consctenttously and
sincerely oppUse and protest against the
seating of Congressman-elect B. II. Rob

Mormon, but on the grounds OF his being
a criminal polygamist, which Is violation
of the laws of our nation, and the true
teachings OF Latter Day Saihtism. which
emphatically enjoins obedience to the laws
of our country.
Resolved, That copy Of these resolu-
tions be furnished to the press. and also
that certified copy be forwarded to Hon.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID
INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLES.
DO Not BE Alarmed, but Look for the
Cause.

Heart troubles. at least among the Amer
leans, are certainly increasing, and while
this may be largely due to the excitement
and worry of American business life, 1t is
more often the result of weak stomachs,
of poor digestion. 81,
Real organic disease is incurable; but not
one case In q hundred OF heart trouble Is
organic.
. The close relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion is because both organs
are controlled by the same great nerves.
the Sympathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also, the heart is ar
fected by the form Of poor digestion, which
causes gas and fermentation from half di-
gested food. There is a feeling OF oppres-
sion and heaviness in the chest caused by
pressure of the distended stomach on the
heart and lungs, interfering with their
action; hence arises palpitation and short
breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood.
making 1t thin and watery, which trrttates
and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble Is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant ana eff
fective digestive preparation, like Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found at
most drug stores and which contain val
uable, harmless digestive elements In a
pleasant, convenient form.
1t Is safe to say that the regular, per.
sIstent use Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
at meal time will cure any form of ston-
Full sized package of these tabets sold

NAVAL BILL IN THE HOUSE.
Last Page Had Been Reached When
Adjournment Was Taken
Last Nfxht.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2L-The house
reached the last page OF the naval bill to-
day. and adjourned with a point of order
pending against a provision fixing the price
of armor plate at $545 per ton. The pro-
vision in the bill went out on point of
order on the ground that it was not linn
lied to the armor purchased with the ap-
preparation in the BILL whereupon it was
modified to meet this objection against 1t.
the point of order pending an adjourn
day was occupied in debating the amend
ment offered by Mr.. Mudd, Republican, of
Maryland. appropriating $120000 to COM
plete the three buildings authorized to be
erected at the naval academy at Annap-
oils.
The naval committee. with the exception
Of Mr.. Cummings, strenuously opposed
proceeding with the work OF rehablitating
the naval academy until comprehensive
plans had been decided upon, but the house
overruled the committee and adopted the
amendment, 20 to 53. Two important pro-
visions in the paragraph providing for the
construction Of new ships went out on
points of order. One provided that no
more than two battleships, two armored
and two protected cruisers should be built
at any one yard, and the other provided
that no bid for the construction of ships
should be entertained from any firm or
company which had not at the time Of
bidding an adequate plant.
