Ills Last Hope Realized.

From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont: In the first opening of Oklahoma to set tiers in 1889, the editor of this paper was among the many seekers after for tune who made the big race one fine day in April. During his travelling about and afterwards his camping up- on his claim, he encountered much bad water, which, together with the severe heat, gave him very severe diarrhOea which it seemed almost impossible to check, and along in June the case be- came so bad he expected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Chamberlain's s Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem- edy as last hope. A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in few minutes the dose was repeated. The good effect of the medicine was soon noticed, and within an hour the patient was taking his first sound sleep for fortnight. That one little bottle worked complete cure, and he cannot help but feel grateful. The season for bowel disorders being at hand suggests this item. For sale by all druggists.

KILLED WIFE AND SELF
Prominent Kansas City Business Man
Blows Off Spouse's Head and
Then Suicides.

Kansas City, Aug Is Mrs. Lille
Maude Evans, wife of George B. Evans,
manager of the American Transfer
Company, was murdered in her home in
the southern part of the city early this
morning. Her husband was later found
dead about two miles from the scene.
He had shot himself in the head. The
murder Of Mrs. Evans was most cold
blooded. The murderer entered Mrs.
Evans room while she was asleep and
placing the pistol against the back of
her neck fired. The shot literally blew
the woman's head off. According to a
hired girl who witnessed the tragedy
Evans entered his wife's apartments at
daylight and fired two shots at her.
Neither took effect. He then dragged
his wife by the hair Of her head. de-
liberately placed the revolver at the
back of her neck and fired. In the dim
light the girl was not positive that it
was Evans but told the police she be-
lieved she recognized his voice. When
his body was found it confirmed the be-
l:ef that he was the murderer.

TRAFFIC SUSPENDED.
High Water at Armourdale-Many Narrow
Escapes From Drowning.

Kansas City, Aug. 15--The traffic be-
tween the two Kansas Cities is practi-
cally suspended today, all the tempor-
ary pile bridges erected after the great
flood of June having been endangered.
The river has been causing more or
less trouble for the past two feeks as
a result of the continuous heavy rains
west of Kansas City. Following last
nights heavy rain the river rose foot.
1t continues to rise today and it is pre-
dcted that it will go four feet higher
before it begins to subsfde. At Ar
mourdale, which was literally wiped out
by the great flood, the river is four
teen feet above low water mark. 1t
will have to 20 to fifteen feet before it
damages the town proper, and the only
damage possible now is to the bridges.
The current is so swift that a row boat
can hardly live in it, and there were
several narrow escapes from drowning
today by men employed to keep drift
wood away from the bridges.
