I had as patient young lady SIX

bad attack of dysentery. Every

Kansas City. Mo-, Dec. $.-Louis James.
the tragedian. now appearing in The Tenn
pest" at the Willis Wood Theater in this
city, will sue a. hotel in Texas because he
was accused of taking two pillows from
tine hosiery.
Yes, 1t Is true, that / was requested to
return two pillows to the Oriental Hotel in
Dallas" said Mr.. James, land l never was
SO mad in my life as / was when | read the
telegram. We had packed our trunks and
had sent. them to the train before We left
the hotel. The pillows were on the bed
when we left the room. While on our way
to Sherman the telegram reached me. 1t
was. in substance, a charge that 1 was a
thief. 1 replied that the telegram was an
insult, and SO soon as I arrived In Sherman
l instructed lawyers to bring suit against
the hotel management for 10000. I am
personally acquainted with Manager Nell
hany, and have known him for years, and I
do not know whether he authorized the
sending OF the telegram. But that makes
no difference. The telegram was sent, and
now l propose to see II the character CT an
honest traveller can be assaulted with i'm
punfty.
The trunks were not in our possession
from the time We left Dallas until We
reached Shreveport, four days later. There
I had an official of the railroad open our
trunks and he searched them thoroughly.
OF course, he did not find the Oriental Hotel
pillows or any other pillows. He made a
deposition to that effect. and I forwarded
the document to my lawyers"

COLORADO COAL LAND SUIT,
Title to 5000 Acres Held by Fuel
Company Disputed.

Denver. Colo, Dec. 6-Suits representing
In the value involved 100000 have been
hled In the United States Land Office at
Pueblo by attorneys for the Utah Fuel Com
pany against the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company.
These suits are forty In number and in
volve title to 5000 acres of coal lands on
the western slope, valued at 1900 an acre.
1t is alleged that the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company is holding the land as agri-
cultural land and the patents. or applica-
tons. 50 read. and that the Utah Com
pany will lose heavily in coal mines already
opened unless the titles obtained by the
Colorado Company are set aside.
The suits are filed, 1t is believed, as a
preliminary step to the merging of the two
corporations, the action being taken to
clear titles.

TRIBAL CATTLE TAX DECISION.
Judge Townsend's Opinion Affects
the Chickasaw Nation.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Ardmore, I. T., Dec. 26.-Judge Townsend
to-day rendered an important decision in
regard to the collection of the tribal cattle
tax in Chickasaw Nation. Several promI-
nent cattlemen of this nation recently filed
papers asking Judge Townsend for an in
junction against Indian agents and members
of the Indian police from payment of the
Indian tax and the driving of their cattle
out Of the Territory when they refused to
pay the same. The matter has been argued
here by prominent attorneys on both sides
for the last ten days.
To-day Judge Townsend refused to grant
the Injunction asked for. This is similar to
the decision handed down by the Supreme
Court OF the District of Columbia In regard
to the collection of a similar tax in the
the courts for years. and these two decisions
probably will put an end to the fight, as the
cattlemen Will be forced to pay the tax or
have their cattle driven from the Tarritory.

CONTRAST IN CANDIDATES
FOR OFFICE OF SHERIFF

1t is a fact which only serves to
emphasize anew the difference in the
attitude of the two parties toward la
boring men, that while the democrats
are always talking of their love for
the working man. their party ticket
does not contain the name of single
laboring man. while in George Heider
the republican party has a candidate
who represents the trades union men
of the win-cities.-Union.
The Union has just entered upon its
periodical performance of talking
through its hat. The above is fair
sample of what the public may eX.
pect the remaining days of the cam
paign. The Union, of course, doesn't
know that Con Donovan, the demo-
cratic shrievalty candidate. is a
tradesman, and a good one, too. 1t
doesn't know, either, but the people
do. though, that Con Donovan has
worked as plasterer all through this
section of the country and that when
ever he did it. the service was per-
formed i'm an honest and workmanlike
manner. The public knows, also. that
Heider represents the laboring men,
but how?-as n politician and fell
low looking for soft snaps on the
strength of being union man. But
that's where Heider has broken his
pick. On election night Heider will
be classed with the also rams"

JURY SLOW TO AGREE AS
TO GUILT OF MRS. JENKINS

The jury before which Mrs. Lucy
jenkins. the colored Moline woman.
was tried for abortion took the case
at 1920 this morning and late this
afternoon was still wrestling with the
question of the guilt of the defend
ant. The attorneys for Mrs. Jenkins
took the ground that the defendant
was not guilty, the operation having
been performed by Carrie Grissom
herself. who it was claimed had tried
in her testimony TO shift the blame
to someone else.
James \. Moffitt was next placed on
trial for larceny. He is charged with
stealing about $50 from Hansen's Sa-
loon i'm Moline at time when the 9TH
er inmates of the place had run out
of the building to see fight. And
rev Olson represents the defendant.
who sets up Il plea of insanity at the
time the act was committed.
