ANOTHER DURANT CASE
A Similar Case to Famous San
francisco Murder Case

Every reader will remember the
Durant murder case. his trial and con-
ylction for the murder Of two young
women IN a church in San Francisco
/ few years ago. Everyone was hrm-
~ convinced of Durant's guilt. He
vas convicted, sentenced and hanged
On circumstantial evidence. About a
year latter the pastor of the church
where the crime Vas committed be-
came i'll and died. Before his death
ne made a statement, confessing he
nad murdered the two young women
and that young Durant was innocent
If the crime. Imagine the feelings of
he judge, the jury, the lawyers and
he sheriff who executed young Dur
ant. They will always hear his last
words: Il am innocent of the u
Ter of Blanche La Mont and Minnie
Williams" Think, if you can. of the
feelings of the old grey haired mother
and father. Durant's father was a
a of considerable means, which he
spent with a lavish hand to extricate
his son from the hands of his perse-
cutors, but without avail. After the
execution the father was a wreck f.
nancially and mentally, the mother on
the verge or 1nSanlty-a family and
home desolated by "circumstantial
evidence and the error and bad judg-
ment of the law.
Oh, the horror of cutting off a
young man in the morning of his life.
and yet you hear of such cases only
too often.
The Della Pringle company will
present a select repertoire of four
plays here next week. chief Of
which will be Caught in the Net" a
play based on "circumstantiaI evil
Everyone should see it, as it
shows us how liable we are to error.
An abundance of fine special scenery
and a superb acting company will un-
fold the story, teaching a most pow
lesson which you will remember
in years to come. At the Armory
hall. Monday night, followed by plays
as good on Tuesday, Wednes-

A Scientific Discovery

Kodol Dyspepsia Cure does for the
stomach that which it is unable to
do for itself, even when but slightly
disordered or overloaded. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure supplies the natural
juices of digestion and does the work
of the stomach, relaxing the nervous
tension, while the inflamed muscles
of that organ are allowed to rest and
heal. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure digests
what you eat and enables the stomach
and digestive organs to transform all
food into rich, red blood. Sold by

For Good Roads.

Abilene. Kan, Feb. 1.-THE Dickinson
County Thresher's association has ad-
journed after a session devoted to secur-
ing good roads and bridges. Under the
law a traction engine has no road rights
and the breaking of a bridge must be
stood by the thresher. As a result the
business is made more expensive and the
farmers dictate the threshers movements
too much. They also want better lien
laws 10 insure payment for their work.
Every thresher in the county is enrolled
in the association and a state organiza-
ton is projected. The officers are:
