saw two masked men standing on

volvers were pointed at his head. hut
In spite of this he jumped from bed
and grappled with the intruders. In
the darkness they broke away and
fed from the house.
The burglars then entered tho
home of Town Marshal Krohm, who
opened fire on them. When he had
shot three times, one of the robbers,
who had jumped into n buggy, got
out and began blazing away Mt the
marshal. At the third shot the lat
ter fell with bullet through his
hips.
Baird, who had meantime arrived
MT the scene, picked up the officers
gun and continued the firing. The
robbers, however, drove rapidly away.
Baird followed them to the homo
of Superintendent w. J. Hitler. of
the Cleveland, Elyria & Western rail-
way. Even when Baird again opened
fire on the robbers they walked into
the Hitler home, after smashing in
the door.

loaded with quail shot.
A burglar cautiously opened the
door, and Hitler blew his head off
with the first discharge. The other
robber turned and ran, but Hitler
discharged the second barrel. The
robber yelled and tottered, but did
not fall. He ran into the street and

Hesiaa tn new Orleans with
Many Delegates Present.

ty-second annual convention OF the
American Federation of Labor met
Thursday morning at io:so In the
Odd Fellows hall. with about 400
delegates present
When the convention had been
called to order, President Lee, of the
New Orleans organiza tions, delivered
an address on behalf of the laboring
men of New Orleans. to which Mr..
3ompers responded.
| President Gompers declared In his
reply that he fully appreciated WHAT
ever was said of him personally and
thought he could best show his appre-
citation by his silence regarding 1t.
After touching upon the scope and
bearing of the labor union movement
President Gompers declared that it
was amazing to note the ignorance
among so-called educated people re-
garding the aims and objects of the
organization.
mo man who as an educator" said
President Gompers, poses as strike
breaker, is fit for the position he
holds. Compared to such man Bene-
dict Arnold was a martyr and Judas
Iscariot a saint"
Although no name was mentioned, II
was understood by the delegates that
reference was made to the head of one
of the leading educational institutions
of the country, and they applauded
with vehemence. Cheers were again
called forth when it was declared that
the men who acted the role of strike
breakers were looking backward to-
ward barbarism and not toward the
future.
The report of National Secretary
Frank Morrison covered the II
months ended with September 80 last.
The federation's aggregate income
for this time was $144,49s, and the
expenditures $119,0s6.

$2,729,604.

Treasurer John b. Lennon showed

entire year to have been $152,312, and

brilliant SUGGESTION for the Inprove-
ment Of the FLagging Game
Of Football.

The supporters Of football are assem-

American.
Gentlemen" says the spokesman,
something must be done to add inter-
est to the game. regret to acknowledge
that in recent years, despite our efforts
to wound main. and kill, the sport has
dwindled in public favor. No doubt this
il because of the increase in the number
OF wars, and the familiarity Of the public
with injuries from that cause; also be-
cause OF the growth of the automobile
fad. Hence, as ! say we must do some
thing to put more ginger in the game.
The point is, what sha.I we dor"
Here a shaggy haired man arose in the
rear Of the hall and begged for hear
ing.
Gentlemen" he said, III represent the
Russo-American society OF anarchy, and
am also an enthusiastic football player.
II occurs to me that il the ball were
filled with dynamite instead of air it
would"
But the rest of his remarks were sim
ply drowned in . furious explosion of
mad applause.

THE TEST OF TIME.

Mrs. Clara j. Sherbourne, Profess

~ heartily wish those who suffer
from some disturbed action of the
kidneys would try Doan's Kidney
Pills. They would, like me, be more
than surprised. My back annoyed
me for years. Physicians who dag
nosed my case said it arose from
my kidneys. When the grip was cpl
demic, was worn out with constant
nursing, and when 1 contracted 1t
myself it left me in very serious
condition. I could not straighten
nor do the most trivial act without
being in torture. The kidneys were
too active or the secretions were too
copious, and knew what was wrong,
but how to right it was a mystery.
II seems odd for professional
nurse, who has had a great deal OF
experience with medicines, to read
advertisements about Doan's Kidney
Pills in the newspapers, and 1t may
appear more singular for me to go
to H. H. Hay & Sons drug stoSe for
a box. But did, however; and had
anybody told me before that 1t was
possible to get relief as quickly as
] did would have been 10th to be-
lieve it. You can send anyone whe
wishes more minute particulars
about my case to me, and i will be
only too glad to- tell them personal
ly. As long as live will be firm
advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills."
Cure Confirmed S Years Later.
"Lapse of time has strengthened
my good opinion of Doan's Kidney
Pills, first expressed in the spring
of 1896. I said then that had any
body told me that It was possible
to get relief as quickly as ! did
would have been 10th to believe 1T.
Years have passed and my continued
freedom from kidney complaint has
strengthened my opinion of Doap's
Kidney Pills and given me much
higher appreciation of their merits"
