thought and new movement. She was
most finished writer and every state
paper presented to congress or the
state legislatures in the early days
was written by Mrs. Stanton"

with which the government views the

from the fact that the chief constable

A special order has also been issued
that even to such parts of Ireland as
are not proclaimed shipments of arms

SURE NOT LYNCHED
DIR. GOOdmansOn in
the City.
He was the Victim of a False
Report Sent out From
Tacoma.

DR.. J. Sidney Goodmanson, a well
known dentist of Webster, s. d., was
in Minneapolis this morning; and to his
friends he denied, in person, the story
of his being lynched in Washington for
the alleged murder of his second wife.
DR.. Goodmanson has not yet entirely
recovered from his surprise at the pub
location of that ''pipe dream" The
story stated that he had been lynched in
some backwoods county of Washington
for the murder Of his wife, which he
was said to have committed in Nebraska.
This in itself was somewhat unusual
but still more so when it is known that
DIR. Goodmanson has never been in the
state of Washington in his life, and that
he and his wife are now living happily
at their home in Webster.
The report is thought to have been
sent out by some enemy of the doctors
although its untruth was so obvious as
to defeat its purpose.
In speaking of the matter the doctor
remarked jocularly, that If he was
lynehed it was without his knowledge,
and certainly the operation had been
painless. Minneapolis Journal.
