CHICAGO. July 29.-Are the members |
of the notorious Bender family alive?
According to the story told by VIII |
liam G.. Adkins. an expert account
ant with offices in the Fisher building !
they are not. Mr.. Adkins was for
years in the vicinity of the home Of
the notorious quartette Of Kansas
murderers. He went to.Parsons, Kas.,
in 1876. nearly three years after the
strange disappearance of the noted
band
Kansas at that time was discussing
the strange manner in which the mem
bers of the family were lost to the
world. Parties were made up each
week from points near the Benders
home which visited the scene of the
wholesale murders, and it was on one
of these visits that Mr.. Adkins became
convinced that the family had not
escaped from the country He made
Inquiries of many familiar with the
history Of the family and its sudden
disappearance and he followed clue
after clue
Each bit of testimony that came to
MIR. Adkins ears was closely sifted,
ana he gained many points on the case
that had not reached the public's ears.
MIR. Adkins continued investigating
for four years after the family had
disappeared but he failed to learn
anything that tended to throw new
light on the noted case until he made
the acquaintance of an old town char
acter who lived under the name Of
Governor Mortimer"
Mortimer at first refused to give
any information regarding the Ben
ders. but later on he limited that the
family would never be found, Then
l-e declared that they were net alive
and that they had not come to a natur-
al end. Finally Mortimer told the
story

WHAT'S IN A NAME
(Benson's Plaster is Pains Master.)

In the days of wild cat money in the
West, the Ames shovels were used as cur
rency. They were as stable as gold; their
price did not vary a cent in twenty years.
The very name of Oliver Ames Il Son, was
q synonym for honesty. 1t was current all
over the world
On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. To say it is q "good" plaster does
not describe it; 10 is the best possible plaster.
For every disease in which an external rem
edy is available, Benson's Plaster is used
almost as matter of course.
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and
cures where other modes of treatment are
either exasperatingly slow or have n good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds. lumhago,
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back,
ETC., are at once benefited and soon cured.
Capsicum, Strengthening and Belladonna
pIasters have none of the curative virtues
Of Benson's. More than 5000 physicians
and druggists have commended Benson's
Plaster as a remedy in which the public
may have implicit confidence; while, in a
comparative test with other plasters, Ben
sons has received .ftty.fre highest atcdrds.
Beware Of substitutes and cheap limitations.
For sale by all druggists or we will pre-
pay postage on any number ordered In the
United States on receipt of ESQ. each.
