nine years ago he was slightly de-
mented on account of the malady and
threatened suicide.

Gently purchased what are known as

Advice is cheap but 1t Is sometimes
valuable. The following incident IS un-
usual because the advice OF q friend

in rescuing the recipient from dis
agreeable predicament. Mr.. ;. M.
Jones, of Hampton. Iowa, In telling the
story, said:

1t was the condition of my blood, but
about the middle Of February. 1901, l

across my back We're very painful and
kept getting worse all the time. After
about q week or ten days 1t went from
my back to my left hip and gradually
extended down my leg into my foot.
Even my toes became stiff and ached.
II was in such pain that could
neither sit nor lie down for more than
few minutes at time and had to be
on the move most Of the while, nlghS

ple. began taking them right away

There is popular idea that rheun,a>
tism is caused by exposure to cold and
that some localities are infected with it
more than others. Such conditions fire.
sauently promote the development of the
disease, but, from the fact that rheu-
rnatism runs in certain families, 1T is
shown to be hereditary and, conse-
a disease of the blood.

Special to Times-Republican.
Clinton, April 5.-The people OF this
section take a large amount of interest
in the sensational shooting of j. S. Judd
of Topeka by Mrs. S. B. Walker OF
Miles, which tragedy took place at Las
Vegas, N. NJ, last Sunday. Mrs. Walker
has lived in this vicinity all her life
and is we'll known in Clinton, Jackson

His wife is a handsome woman, n de-
cided brunette, accomplished and at

mate. She has spent considerable or
her time in the southwest for the past
few years, her husband visiting there
occasionally and she quite often return
ing home for few days. While here
she was an active member Of the Meth
odist Episcopal church and was lead
er in the village choir of Miles. Her
friends here do not believe she has been
unfaithful to her husband and family,
and If they can assist the woman in any
WAY lQoy are WILING u 10 81. OOIIlS
have already volunteered to go to Las
Vegas and offer their testimony as to
Mrs Walkers character and standing
in the community. Her husband has
faith in his wife and says he will leave
no stone unturned to secure her ac-
quittal, on the ground that she acted on
self-defense.
According to the report from Las We
gas Judd went to Mrs. Walkers rooms,
ostensibly to secure some kodak mega
tives. Mrs. Walker asserts that while
there, learning they were alone, Judd
made indecent proposals, to which she
would not listen. He then attempted to
criminally assault her. During the
struggle she secured pistol lying on
a dresser and shoht Judd in the head,
the bullet causing instant death. Judd
was well-known and highly respected
resident of Topeka. He has always
born good reputation, altho it has
been said he had recently attempted to
assault a number of women in Las We
gas 1t ISIS aid some claim his mind was
defective of late. He was &C years of
age and leaves wife and several chill
dren, one son being the manager of the

Fort Dodge Calf Case.

Special to Times Republican.
Fort Dodge, April 5.-The case of
Collins VS.. karnes, involving the own
ership of two humble calves, occupied
the attention of judge, attorneys and
jury, in the district court today. The
case seems destined to become as ia
nous as the Jones county calf case. 1t
all arose because Kearnes put his cat
tie in Collins pasture last summer and
when he came to take them out, the
two disagreed as to the number which
he was entitled to. Kearnes said the
two calves We're his and Collins de-
clared they were his and over the ques-
ton they went to law. ~

stellar Troubles.

Recently the JOURNAL spoke adj
miringly of the Colossus who bestrides
the Salisbury Pa star, or words to
that effect, and the Midland Press,
doubtless assuming that the Lonacon-
ing star is more or less binary body,
wrote of the editor as 1.-THE presiding
Augur."
In one of the ancient religions the
Office of "Augur" was an important one
1t was his duty, as it was that of the
Hon. George f. Baer, to inquire into
the Divine will"
This appears to make Augur prefer
able to Colossus as classic impersona-
ton of the Salisbury and Lonaconlng
orbs, although there is the Twin Colossi
of Amenophis III, on the bank of the
Nile, near Thebes-what will we do
about that, Clayton?
