One Million Dollars

United Lead Co. have decided to erect a hugh plant here

our already busting city in completing it, but it means a
great deal more as t will give employment to hundreds, yes
thousands of men, and they got to have homes for them
in building these homes, italso means demand for building
lots. ] can speak to you if you want desirable lots, yes, 1t

Assaulted and Robbed.

Last Saturday night, between the
hours of ten and eleven young man
named Earl Tuller, of Hector, Potter
county, employed in Whiting &
Thomas lumber camp on Still House
Run, started to walk from Cameron to
the camp. When on the outskirts of
the town he met three men whom he
supposed to be woodsmen going to
the camp and spoke to them, when
they jumped upon him, knocked him
down and kicked him. Realizing his
utter helplessness he remained quiet,
when the ruff1ans ceased pounding him,
the scoundrels evidently believing he
was unconscious rifled his pockets,
taking his gold watch and what little
money he had when they left for Cam
eron, thinking their man was ''dead
to the world" Young Tuller recog-
nized the voice of one of the men, but
being badly used up he walked to the
camp, where he received what treat
ment could be meted him. Both his
eyes were blackened, face and head
cut and left side of jaw fractured. The
injured man came to Emporium on
Monday and filed information with
District Attorney McNarney, who
caused warrant to be issued for the
arrest of Chas. Dinger, of Dubois,
Harvey Hummell and - Nolan, of
Roulette. The warrant was placed in
the hands of Sheriff Hemphill who
deputized Constable Bunce of Lumber
township to make the arrests. The
outlaws have ekipped out and are sup
posed to have gone to Austin. Mr..
Tuller was PRESS caller on Monday
and from his description it is wonder
he escaped with his life. Lawlessness
should not go unpunished and it is to
be hoped the ruffians will be arrested.

A Cure for Headache.

Any man woman, or child suffering
from headache, biliousness or dull,
drowsy feeling should take one or two of
DeWitt's Little Early Risers night and
morning. These famous little pills are
famous because they are tonic as well
as pill. While they cleanse the system
they strengthen and rebuild it by their
tonic effect upon the liver and bowels.

at some length the death of this excel
lent citizen, which cast a gloom over
large circle of friends. The numerous
expressions of sorrow expressed aud
conveyed to the grief stricken widow,
daughter and brothers was an evidence
of the high esteem in vhich the de-
ceased was held. Kind, devoted faith
er, and husband, good true friend and
upright man, was Daniel D Webster.
We knew him intimately and valued
his friendship beyond expression. He
was everybody's friend and many
times ga friend in need,' as can be
testified to by scores of our citizens.
We shall always remember his unsul-
lied name with reverence and respect.
Farewell, dear friend; we shall miss
your many pleasant visits aud chats,
yet rejoice to know that you are happy
and beyond suffering.
THE FUNERAL
The funeral last Sunday afternoon
from the residence of his brother-in-
law, Mr.. B. E. Jones, Third street
(where he and his good wife were as
sisting their family during their terri.
BILE affiiction) was very largely attend
ed by our Masonic fraternity who ac-
companied the family and remains to
the First Methodist Episcopal Church,
where the services were conducted by
the Pastor, Rev. O. S. Metzler. The
church was crowded with all classes
who We'd one with the other to honor
a good citizen-in fact the Sunday
school room partition had to be remov-
ed to accommodate the great concourse
of friends. Miss Byrde Taggart pre-
sided at the organ and appropriate
music was rendered. Rev. o. s. Metz
Ter, who is noted for eloquent and con-
siderate remarks upon solemn occa-
sions like these, certainly did deliver
one of the most timely, eloquent and
consoling sermons ever listened to by
our citizens. His remarks as to the
dead and living were grand and feel
ingly delivered.
After viewing the remains the silent
city of the dead was soon reached and
all that was mortal of Daniel D. Webs
ter was lovingly laid to rest, amidst
bank of flowers, the tokens of ofrespect
from relatives and friends from far and
near.

from any of the departments agents in Europe re-

Kaiser Wilhelm II on June 20 off Plymouth. The
affidavit of Mr. Flamm the passenger who de-
clared that he Mr.. LOOMS land at Plymouth
has not yet reached the department. but the OFF,
cials have given close attention to the newspaper
abstract of the affidavit and inclined to think
that this is case Of mistaken Identity on the part
of Mr. Flamm in view of the accuracy which has
hitherto characterized the returns of the steamship
company as TO the boardinGs and landings or It's
passengers. However. assuming that Mr.. F1amIn
may be right the theory most generally accepted
here is that Mr.. LOOMS may have been concealed
by some Of his friends in sanatorium until he
RECEIVERS from his fit OF abstraction.

nlaiued disappearance of his brother Assistant Sec
