HOW AU6UR DIED
pitIful End OF A Promising Career.

Arthur Kerr, an Ell Paso high school
graduate, now attending schosl In
New York, sends the following account
of Chris. Augur's death, clipped from
the New York World:

Philip Kingsland Hay and Christoph-

stone Creek while ate mptiDg to shoot
q dam at Kingston, two miles from
Princeton, in q birch-bsrk canoe.
A younger brother of Hay saw the
accident and with two companions
tried to rescue the victims, but without
success.
Owing to the recent heavy rains
Milestone Creek was high, and q tor
rent poured over the Gam, which is
near the old Kingston Bridge. The
falls were only two feet high, but below
them the water flowed In angry eddies,

was visiting him, had gone canoeing
early In the afternoon In the Raritan
canal. All went we'll until Augur
and the elder Hay, transferring the
canoe to Milestone Creek, with foolish
daring essayed to shoot the dam. Their
frail craft passed over the falls in
safety, but upon reaching the angry
waters below was capsized, throwing
both OF its occupants into the stream.
The companions OF the two daring
students, who had left the canoe for
dry land before the attempt to shoot
the falls was made. tried in vain to
rescue them.
The victims rose once and tried to
swim against the swift current, but
sank quickly, to rise no more.
Pfeitfer carried the news to the col
lege officials and search for the bodies
was begun. AuRur's body was recov-
cred at 7 P. NJ, three hours after the
accident, but no trace of Hays body

at any point on the Southern Pacific
lines west of New Orleans, and this
priv. lege does not even stop at Ell Paso
but extends over the entire route, going
and returning, whether the ticket reads
exclusively over the Southern Pacific
lines or any of the lines allowing US to
ticket such business. One way tickets
to California are of three classes;
first class, with thirty day limit. allow
Ing stop over at any point; first class,
continuous passage, which do NOS
permit to stop over, expect perhaps
for twenty-four or thirty-six hours at
division terminal points, and second
GLASS, which are In the same category
assfrst class, con tinuous passage tickets.
These stop privileges on tourist tickets
have been allowed for many years, and
certainly Ell Psso must have attracted
Q great number of tourists within that
time to stop off at that point.
L have just had conversation with
Mr.. Mayo, which was suggested by re-
cefpt OF your letter, as to his recent
visit TO Ell PssO, and he informs me of
your earnest desire to place the South

Engineer Schlottman Was Not To
Blame.

II appears that Engineer Schlottman
was not responsible for the accident
near Clifton, which caused the death
of himself and his fireman. The
rdsburg Liberal prints a correction
of its own account, from which IL is
clear that the engineer stopped his
train, and only started upon signal
from the foreman OF the bridge car
penters, an employe of the contractor.
The terrible accident seems to have re-
quilted from careless placing of the
false work of the bridge, and the rail-
way employees we're in no way to
blame.

FeR TIE BLOOD. LIVER, LUNGS.

Experience has shown to physicians
that the majority of diseases have their
origin i'll the arrangement or disease of
the stomach and other organs of diges-
ton and nutrition. The stomach is the
receptacle III which food is received and
the laboratory in which it is prepared to
nourish the different parts of the body
1t prepares brain nourishrnent in one
way, nerve nourishment in another,
muscle nourishment in another When
the stomach is out of order" these
various forms of nourishment are only
partly or imperfectly prepared, and
nerve, muscle, or brain, as the case
may be, is only partly fed, and the result
IS pain, which is Natures protest and
warning. The pain may be in the head
OF in the heart, but you must reach it
through the stomach or you can't cure
1t. That is the philosophy on which DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
prepared. 1t has absolute control of
the stomach and digestive and nutritive
system. 1t cures diseases in head, heart,
liver, lungs and other organs by curing
the diseased condition of the stomach
which prevents the proper nourishment
of the various organs and corrupts them
BY its own diseased condition, in the
partial nourislinent it provides. In like
manner Golden Medical Discovery"
purifies the blood, by purifying the
and other blood-making organs.

In the United States Court Yesterday
the case of Captain NJ. II. Prince. who
shot and killed Charles J. Cannon on

ed before Commissioner Bowdcn for Il
preliminary hearing.
Long before court convencd-11
o'cloClS-thcre was an immense crowd
present, and when the Commissioner
raped for order, the court room was
packed with sweltcrinS humanity.
When the case was called Judge Will
cox. counsel for Prince. arose and
stated that without admitting any ques-
ton of jurisdiction. examination
would be waived by the prisoner. and
asked the court to send the case on to
the grand Jury without q preliminary
investigation. Mr.. i. J. Morris. who will
assist in prosecuting the case. arose
and made some reference to the record
of the case. An explanation from the
Commissioner settled this matter. and
Prince was ordered to be confined in
the Norfolk city Jail until the Federal
grand jury meets in November.
IT was thought by many that the
prisoner would be confined in Jail at
Newport News. where all Federal
prisoners are kept. but this was settled
by Judge Waddlll. who sent n special
order to Commissioner Bowden. allow

outward appearance OF the prisoner
was exceedingly calm. He showed no

It IS now thought tina, there will be
no effort made to get bail for The prls-

confined In tho city Jail until Novcm-
ber. 1t IS not known when Judge Wad-

thought that he will come here before
going to his home in Richmond. The
next grand jury meets on the first
Monday in November
Tie jury that will try Captain Prince
will be made up from forty counties,
reaching from Alexandria to Norfolk.
1t is probable that no Norfolk citizen
will be on the jury and II will also
require 4 big venire to select the jury
