SCARED TO DEATH.

DR.. Francis w. Mcnamara of Chi
cago says Millions of people are
made wretched every year or, perhaps,
have their lives shortened, by feeling
that they have heart disease. They
have a pain in that region, and their
own diagnosis is sufficient to convince
them of the malady. AS matter of
truth, there is seldom any pain from
heart disease. The trouble is indi-
gestion only. The stomach, lying just
under the heart, is distended to pain
full degree by gases, and, crowding to-
ward the heart. makes the pain seem
to be in that organ"
This opinion simply confirms the
claim of DR.. w. B. Caldwell, who orig
mated the formula of Syrup Pepsin.
the guaranteed cure for Indigestion
and constipation. All druggists sell it.
but be sure to ask for Dr.. CdldlOeHs
Syrup Pepsin.

liar to tell the truth.

KILLED HER ASSAILANT.

Dead from a severed jugular vein, the
body of Mrs. Joseph Leslie was picked
up by the Bloomington, ILL.,, police last
night and removed to morgue. She
had been killed about 8 o'clock by Miss
Daisy Carlton, following an attack upon
her by the murdered woman with a
horsewhip. A bullet from a revolver in
the possession of Miss Carlton entered
the neck of the victim and she died in a
few minutes without making any state
ment. Tie sensational event startled
the entire city. The killing was the
sequel to jealousy aroused in the MUIR
dered woman by the alleged attentions
paid to Miss Carlton by the formers
husband Mrs. Leslie was aged twenty
eight and went to Bloomington from
Springfield year ago with her husband
The couple I'd been married five years,
but were chill Hess. Mrs. Leslie was a
woman weighing perhaps 175 pounds,
but was rather attractive in features.
The Carlton girl is about twenty. She
is an unusually attractive girl. Her par
ents have always resided in Bloomington,
but Of late years have been in somewhat
reduced circumstances financially forcing
the daughter to earn her own living. For
several months she had been employed
in restaurant at the same place Joseph
Leslie was also engaged. Mrs. Leslie
and her husband have had several quar-
rels over the alleged attentions paid to
the girl by Leslie, and recently Mrs.
Leslie entered the place, and, after de-
nouncing the girl for her alleged actions,
hurled glass of water at her. She is
also said to have given her a verbal de-
nunciation at other times. Yeste rday
evening while Miss Carlton and girl
friend were going to their homes on the
East Side, and near the corner of Market
and Prairie streets, they noticed Mrs.
Leslie lying in wait for them behind a
tree. They sought to avoid her by cut
ting across the street. The Leslie
woman followed swiftly, and, according
to the stories of the two girls, struck
Miss Carlton several times with the
whip. The girl thereupon drew a .3S-
caliber revolver from the folds of her
dress and fired one shot. The bullet |
tore open the jugular vein of the Leslie
woman and she bled to death. The
Carlton girl, with remarkable selfposes-
sion, walked back down town and gave
herself up to the police. She has re-
fused to discuss the killing since being
arrested.

BRYAN ANSWERS ROOsEvELT.-The
democratic campaign in Missouri was
opened at Joplin last evening at meet
ing attended by 5000 persons. Hon.
William J. Bryan was the principal
speaker. William J. Stone, national
committeeman and candidate for United
States Senator to succeed George G..
Vest; Governor A. NJ. Dockery and
Mavor James A. Reed, of Kansas City,
also spoke. Mr.. Bryan talked at length
on the tariff, saying, among other
things, that it was time to take the tariff
off at least all kinds of trust-made goods.
The country, he said, could not look to
the republicans for reform in the tariff,
adding: "There were more righteous
men in Sodom and Gomorrah than there
are tariff reformers in the republican
party" He declared that President
Roosevelt had no remedy for the trust
evil and that some of the President $
utterances OH the subject were absurd.
Continuing, Mr.. Bryan said: 81 tell
you one trust magnate in stripes, behind
the prison walls, woulddo more to break
up trusts than all the speeches the
President can make. The constitution
al amendment the republicans are talk
ing about is not meant for the regulation
of trusts, but to take the power TO con-
troll trusts away from the States and so
protect the trusts"

ATTEMPT TO END STRIKE.

Important preliminary steps were
taken yesterday toward a settlement Of
the anthracite coal strike. j. PierpOnt
Morgan, through earnest representations
made by Governor stone, has assented
to plan which, it is believed, will end
the trouble. 1t needs, of course, the
consent of the leaders of the strike
Governor Stone will present it to John
Mitchell today. In brief the plan is
that the men shall return to work, with
out signed agreements; that the operat-
ors shall then, by concessions, seek to
adjust the differences; that if settle
ment is not reached within a stated
time, the whole matter shall be referred
to an arbitrator; that the men will await
his decision, and that, if they deem is
unjust, they may renew the strike.
Peter A. B. Widener may be the arbi-
traitor chosen, but his selection is not
vital part of the plan. These ar
rangements were the result of con-
ference held in New York yesterday by
Governor Stone. Attorney General
John p. Elkin, State Senator William
Finn, of Pittsburg, and Mr.. Widener,
followed by presentation of the plan
to Mr.. Morgan by the Philadelphia
fnancier.
