Persons who suffer from indiges-
ton can not expect to live long, he
cause they cannot eat the food re-
uuired to nourish the body and the
products OF the undigested foods
they do eat poison the blood. 1t is
important to cure indigestion as
soon as possible, and the best
method OF doing this is to s the
preparation known as Kodol Dys-
pepsia Cure. It digests what you
eat and restores all the digestive or
gans to perfect health. 3t5

SHOT HIS WIFE.
A Buffalo County Man
Tries to Kill his Wife,
and Himself.

Yesterday Herman Koch and Carl
Stiike. OF Duncan, Buffalo County,
were in Miller trading. and report a
tragedy that occurred in their neigh
borhood Sunday. A Bohemian
farmer named Frank Katouleuek
had a quarrel with his wife Sunday
evening in which he pulled out a re-
volyer and shot her in the breast.
The woman, although fatally
wounded dragged herself out of the
house some distance to a neighbours,
where she is lying at the point of
death. The next day overcome by
Iemorse or fear, the Bohemian shot
himself, butt is thought not fatal
ly. His nerve must have failed him,
as he then went to Gam Valley and
gave himself up.
One report has it that Katouleuek
q%uarreled with his wife over the div
ision OF 81 900 he had in cash. He
wanted her to go to Iowa with him
and she refused to go. 1t is said
they had parted once before. The
neighbors talk of their being another
man in the case, and that the shoot
ing was the result o. jealousy, but
this is not fully corroborated. The
couple have four small children.

But Mr.. Pike should be thankful.
He should convey his appreciation to

there is little question but that he
would have been defeated owing to

Telluride Journal.
Since the closing of the Smuggler-
Union mines Wednesday morning
there has been practically nothing in
the way of news. The indications are
that the company has no intention Of
resuming operations for some months.
The remodeling and practical rebuild
ing of the old mill, and changes and
improvements in what is designated
as the new mill have been instituted.
These operations, from all indications
will require at least three months.
Several employees of the mine have
called at the Journal office in the past
day or two and ordered the paper sen.
to various points in the east and west.
saying they had permission to be alb
sent three months and were taking
advantage of the vacation to visit old
homes and friends. The horses and
mules used for tramming in the mine
have been brought down. had their
shoes pulled. and have been sent 70
ranches in the valley. The company
management is not giving out infor-
nation as to it's future plans and pur-

that this big property will be idle for
the better part of the months most
favorable for mining.
Notices were yesterday posted about
town by the officers of the Miners
union requesting workingmen to stay
away from the property until the diff
ferences between employees and en-
ployer were adjusted. The manage
ment does not discuss the existence of
any differences, simply saying that the
rebuilding and enlarging of their mill
ana the repairing and timbering etc.
of the mine was necessary, and point
to the work of this nature now in pro-
gress. In the old mill the batteries.
sixty stamps. vanners, concentrating
tables. etc, have all been torn out. the
grade for doubling the capacity of the
mill is well under way, and everything
indicates that more extensive opera
tions than ever before are contemplat-
ed for the future. 1t is also current
rumor. though with what, if any. foun-
dation. the Journal is not prepared

promised, or predicted. comes true,
the temporary inconvenience may not
be so disastrous in its final outcome
as was feared, though, of course, the
general prosperity of the community

JUDGE LYNCH.
Rev. Ferguson Tells Why He Should
Not Be lnduIQed.

On Sunday evening Rev. Ferguson
preached an interesting sermon on
lynching. In introduction the speak
er referred to the fact that some poo
pie consider certain amount OF evil
necessary in the world and pay no at
tention to some of Its existing forms.
This habit of overlooking small trans
gressions gradually leads to the pass
ing by of grave offences, resulting
finally in unrestrained license until
not only property but life itself is in
danger. This is the history of lynch,
ing. Mr.. Ferguson then spoke OF the
fact that every state has had cases OF
lynching. recalling that which happer.
ed few months ago in Colorado.
One of the great principles lynch
law violates is the sacredness
of human life, which truth men real
ize more and more as civilization sd
vances. One tenth of the law writ
ten SO long ago on tables of stone was
given to impress man with due regard
for life. Revelation abounds witt!
declarations intended to impress mer
with the fact that life is a divine pif.
The sixth commandment sets forth
Gods purpose to preserve that gift in

Short Review of the Interesting Clos

Last Saturday the Hermosa school

draped in soft folds wherever there
was convenient spot, while in a
conspicuous place hung the American

here and there.
The occasion was the closing exer-

an exhibition of children's work in
the afternoon, followed by program
in the evening.
The school exhibit was exceedingly
creditable to pupils and teacher alike.

of the children's work had been saved
from recitations held during the term.
These specimens of work consisted
of exercises in studies OF grades from

| more. The papers were extremely
neat, while the excellence of the writ
ing called forth the admiration of all.
Colored letters marked the different
divisions into which the work had
been arranged. The, exhibit, which
is the first of the kind held in the
county. was very successful. Great
interest was manifested. the childrens s
