The Teachers Wife.

Clarissa, Mimi, Oct 2Sth.-Mrs.
\ Clara Keys wife Of Charles Keys,
school teacher of this place, tells a
wonderful story.
For years her life was one Of mis-
cry. Her back ached all the time; her
head ached' all the time; neuralgia
pains drove her to desperation. She
used much medicine, but failed to get
any relief till she tried Dodd's Kidney
Pills. She says:
VERY soon after l began using
Dodds Kidney Pills all my aches and
pains vanished like the morning dew.
consider this remedy a God-send to
suffering womanhood."
Encouraged by their success in her
own case, Mrs. Keys induced her
mother, an old lady of "a years, to use
Dodds Kidney Pills for her many
aches and pains. Now both mother
and daughter rejoice in perfect free
dom from illness or suffering which
is something neither had enjoyed for
years before.

warden of Dannemcra prison, who was

Improvement in the latter, which was
made at once. He found the bars OF

apart and expressed the opinion that
an upright blackboard placed inside the
bars would strengthen the grip of the
straps upon the body of the condemned
man. The suggestion was adopted.

che prison officials did not regard it in
ahe light Of breaking down and adj
he1-ed to their belief that he would go
s1nfaiteringly to the chair and death.
Aside from the break at nightfall Czol-
=zDsz spent his last day of life much as
HE did all the others since he passed
into the hands of the law. The ap-
1roach Of death seemed to awaken no
xreaier consciousness of his position.
He again turned his back upon the
priests who came to urge him to con-
Tess and repent and was undemonstra-
tive in the presence of those of his kin
who came to say last farewell to
.1im When alone with his guards he
remained silent and passed the time
either lying on his bunk or in slowly
pacing up and down the cell. He
ralked, when addressed, to those ad-
emitted near his cell, with his old de-
liberation and slowness. If he knew
strong emotion at any time he was
successful in concealing it from those
who watched over him.
:, Showed q Good Appetite.
The prison guards combated the
suggestion that his stolidity was a
fIaze OF fear and that the hour of ex-
sscution would find him helplessly
broken down. The prisoner suffered
mo loss of appetite and during the day

'How does what feeI?" shifted the
guard.
"That-in there" said the assassin,
jerking his thumb toward the wall,
twenty feet beyond which was the en-
trance to the death chamber, where he
paid the penalty of his crime.
"O1, you'll know" said the guard,
prison has the least spark of feeling
for the assassin. Its soon over"
He appeared to be unlike any type of
anarchist criminal with which crimi-
biologists are familiar. When he stood
erect he was about S feet 8 inches in
height and his weight was about 140
pounds. His figure might be called ath-
letic were it not for an unmistakable
droop of the shoulders.

showmen Wanted Remains.


The resolution of Superintendent
Collins to prevent sensation in the
transportation and burial or cremation
of the body of Czolgosz took new zest
from two offers that were submitted
by men of questionable enterprise A
museum-keeper in one of the larger
eastern cities telegraphed him an offer
of $4,000 spot cash for either the body
or the garments of the murderer, and
the owner of kaleidoscope wired
Warden Mead that he would pay ST.
900 for permission to take a moving
picture of Czolgosz entering the death
chamber. The superintendent also had
suspicious aroused as to the motives
of some of the relatives Of Czolgosz in
seeking the body, in view of their pow
erty and the trouble and danger pos
sible in connection with it's removal
and disposal.
Promises Decent Burial.
The superintendent met Waldeck
Czolgosz, brother of the murderer, as
he was being escorted to the death
cell shortly after his arrival and at
once took the matter up with him. He
asked Czolgosz if he wanted the body.
He said he did. Collins then told him
that he did not believe it could be re-
moved without serious trouble and
strongly advised him against the at
tempt. The plan to take it to Buffalo
where Czolgosz had assassinated the
president, he regarded as particularly
dangerous. Collins discussed the mat
ter from the standpoint of the Cool
gosz family and said they would surely
avoid serious annoyance and possibly
violence by consenting to burial here
He assured Waldeck Czolgosz that he
and the family could attend, that they
would be protected and that the body
would be given decent burial.

reference to the accusations of looting

any other naticn, and am frank to say
that under the circumstanc there are
few things the missionaries have done,
if any, for which there need to be any
apology whatever. The stories of their
looting are false, to my knowledge.
Speaking OF the siege, Mr.. Conger
said. 1T took every white man we had
to stand by the guns. Without the mis-
sjcnaries, the legation would not have
been saved, and without the native
Christians nome Cf us would have been

ment has given great satisfaction
throughout the territory and is espec-
tally gratifying to his many friends who
know and esteem his sturdy, manly
qualities.
In politics, Mr.. Reynolds is a consis-
tn. Republican, who works and votes
for the success of Republican principles.
While young in years, he has had much
experience and has mingled much with
men of affairs This and the fact that
he is broad minded, of liberal educa-
tinn, excellent business habits and
methods, courageous in doing his duty
and loyal to his friends, fits him ad-
mirably for the important office he has
been called upon to fill, and is proof
that the administration of his official
duties will reflect credit upon the ap-
pointing power as we'll as upon himself.
Socially, Mr.. Reynolds and his char
ming wife, will be very welcome in
Santa Fe, where they have already
many friends.
