Trib in the High sierras.

The day we started on our trip ac-
ross the mountains, from Carson, Ne
vada, while wheeling down the grade
toward Lake Tahoe, l went over a
high e~mbankment, falling aud badly
spraining and bruising my knee.
When we reached Hobart, the instep
OF Mrs. Gordon's right foot was much
weakened by the sever exertion nee
essary on the mountain road. 1t
seemed as II We could go no further.
There was just M bottle OF liniment,
Trib, in the place. We bought it and
applied it thoroughly that night and
the next morning, and W. were thus
able to proceed easily and without
delay. Continuing its use, in three
days we reached our destination, both
knee and instep completely cured and
free from that muscular stiffness and
soreness which too often mars an out
ing. Trib is the greatest thing on
earth where a liniment is needed.

Without Trib all the pleasure of Il
most interesting journey would have
been destroyed, il indeed, we could
have made it at all.

COLORED WOMAN Is
HELD ON LARCENY CHARGE

The case of Bertha Aberdell Cotter.
charged with the theft of $50 dia-
mond pin from DIR. E. V. Heaton, was
brought to trial before Magistrate
johnson at the police station yester-
day afternoon. The doctor told a
straightforward story. showing how
the woman had apparently been at
tracted by the glitter of the stone in
the moonlight and had snatched it from
his scarf before he had time to an
ticipate her act. The subsequent
struggle for it's recovery he admitted
was conducted with desire on his
part to avoid being seen in her COM
pany. but when he found all his
efforts failed, he decided to take the
matter to the police
OF course the woman told a differ
emit story and denied having taken or
even having seen the diamond, but
the evidence of those who were pres
ent when she was accused Monday
night and practically admitted the
theft, over balanced the Testimony and
the magistrate bound her over to the
grand Jury in the sum of $500 for
larceny.

From over the seas-from every
land where civilization has gained a
foothold-have come messages of
sympathy to the American people.
From every city, town, village,
neighborhood where the American
flag waves, there is lamentation. And
no where is this more so than in the
south-let us say to the southwark
for there is NJ south now, no north,
no east, no west. 1t is just simply
our Country, our Nation. At every
home there is mourning. Every mans
eye is dimmed, there is a lump in the
throat, and-well, you know, and you
feel-God help the creature that ut
tiers a word of sympathy for the mis-
cradle being in B~uffalo's Jail, the
cause of all this sorrow.
But, perhaps the s~acrific will not
be in vain. 1t may teach us to be bet
ter Americans, to love our country,
and its institutions better, and guard
its portals more closely, and see thai
red-handed a~ssassins do not creep in
and resolve us to tear up, root and

And the home life of Mckinley
How it shines. He was a man. He was
not only that-he was one of God:
noblemen. The Bible says "Enocf
walked with God" Mckinley walked
with God. He died the death of ;
Christian. Nearer, my God to Thee
were his last words. He was no
afraid of the Valley of the Shadow
of Death.
With all political differences lait
aside, with barred heads Americans

Bearing Up BraveIy Under Her
I~rrcparabIe Bereavement.

Milburn Cottage, Buffalo, Sept. IA,
$3.50 a. m.-William Mckinley, twenty
fifth president of the United States,
died at fifteen minutes after two
o'clock this morning. He had been
unconscious since ten minutes of eight
last night. The death was officially
announced by Secretary Cortelyou.
Realized End was Near.
The presidents last conscious hour
on earth vas spent with his wife, to
whom he had devoted a lifetime of
care, and while his mind was partial
deaments, the last submission of the
sufferer to the will of the Almighty,
the last murmured expressions from
his dying lips and the last good Dyes.
In this interval of consciousness Mrs,
Mckinley was brought into the death
chamber. The president had asked to
see her. She came and sat beside him
held his hand, and heard from him his
last words of encouragement and
comfort. Then she wa led away,
and not again during his living hours
did she see him.
The president himself fully realized
that his hour had come, and his mind
turned to his maker. He whispered
feebly, Nearer My God To Thee
the words of the hymn always dear
to his heart. Then in faint accents
he murmured "Good-by all, good-by,

Washington, Sept. 16.-The remains
of President Mckinley tonight lie in
the East room of the White House,
where for more than four years he
had made his home as the chief magis-
trate of the great American republic.
Upstairs his widow mourns for her
dead in the family apartments that
now bring back but the saddest of
memories.
1t was with simple ceremony and q
silence that fitted perfectly the sad
ness of the occasion that the body
of the late president was borne up
Pennsylvania avenue to the White
House and laid upon the bier in the
great East room, where he had stood
so often in the pride of his manhood
to receive the greetings of the COM
mon people he loved better than him
self.
