PUTS BIG BULLET
INTO HIS RIVAL
Two Dusky Men Quarrel Over
a Woman and One
May Die.

George Todd, a railroad porter, is in the
city hospital with a bullet wound IN MS
abdomen and Thomas Franklin, also col
ored, is under arrest in ST. Paul.
The two men came together about noon
yesterday in Joe Blackwell's place, at IL
Washington avenue south, Minneapolis,
and there was considerable shooting, but
Todd was the only one who was hit,
According to the reports Of the wit
neSseS Todd was the aggresSor, and
Franklin shot in self defense. =
There had been some feeling between
the men for months because Franklin
supplanted Todd in the affections OF a
dusky damsel. Franklin had been con-
Quoting a restaurant in North Dakota and
returned to the city few days ago.
Saturday night they had words, and
Todd threat tened to make trouble for his
rival. Yesterday morning he went to a
pawnShOp and deposited his oVercoat in
order to secure sufficient funds to take a
revolver out of pawn.
Then he went to Blaekwell's place
where FRANKLIN was entertaining num-
Der of friends.
Shooting Begins
When Todd entered Franklin permit
ted him to enjoy his hospitality and later
started to leave. He was halted by Todd,
who attempted to draw. a revolver from
his pocket say the witnesses The weap-
on caught in his pocket and Franklin shot
first, and the 44-caliber bullet perforated
the great intestine in Todd's anatomy,
and the doctors say he may die.
Todd succeeded in drawing his revolver
and fired three shots, but only damaged
the ceiling and the floor.
Franklin departed in hurry. He en-
tered Frank Welch's hack and was driven
as far as Eighth avenue south and Third
street. and then he jumped from the We
hicle without waiting to pay his fare and
made run down Third street and board
ed car for st. Paul
Arrested in ST Paul
Thomas Franklin was arrested last
night by Detective Fraser at Third and
Minnesota streets. Fraser recognized the
man from a description furnished by the
Minneapolis police. When captured
Franklin was headed for the union depot.
At the central station Franklin said he
came to Minneapolis Saturday night from
Devils Lake, where he had been con-
ducting lunch stand. which burned last
week.
II spent the night with some of my
friends at the club, said Franklin II
was told that Todd threatened to shoot
me. So when | saw him today 1 was
afraid he would kill me. He>put his hand
up to his hip pocket and thought that he
was going to pull gun, so 1 shot him. y

shipment. It is believed the children se-
empty bottles and became intoxicated, but
they refused to tell where they obtained
the liquor.
The children were of such an age that
no saloon keeper would sell them liquor,
and if they did not steal the beer from
the cases piled up on the platform of the
station it is the opinion of the police they
found some man who was intoxicated and
relieved him of the bottle which he had
provided for his Sunday tippie.

WHY 1T SUCCEEDS
Because 1t Is for One Thing Only, and
Greeley Is Learning This.

Because 1t Is for One Thing Only. and
Greeley Is Learning This.
Nothing can be good for every
thing.
Doing one thing we'll brings sue
cess.
Doan's Kidney Pills do one thing
only.
They're for sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kidney
i'll.
Here is evidence to prove it.
j. W. Miller, stone mason, of IT'S
Laporte avenue, Fort Collins, Colo.
says: "If l were asked by any citizen
OF Fort Collins suffering from kidney
complaint, backache or any of the
consequents which follow in the wake
of that far too prevalent trouble,
what to do to get relief, | would un
hesitatingly say, 70 to the nearest
drug store, buy Doans Kidney Pills
and take course of treatment.
They cured the last attacks which |
was unable to check, let alone stop.
Now, when a man has dOctored,
taken bottle after bottle of medicine
which did no good and he finally
drops onto one that has given him
absolute faith he naturally becomes
enthusiastic about it. The first few
doses of Doan's Kidney Pills | took
convinced me Of their curative pow
ers and the way they cleaned out the
kidneys was remarkable. When |
finished the box / went back for a
second and told the druggist that he
need never be afraid to recon- mend
Doan's Kidney Pills for they did ex-
actly what is claimed for them. l
will recommend them under all cir
cumstances TO all sufferers from their
kidneys
Just such emphatic endorsement
can be had right here at Greeley.

Only Ono Big Minstrel Show.

Nard & Wade have the only one
bip white minstrel show. 1t will be
the attraction at the Greeley opera
house next Thursday, February IL.
1t Is useless to say that the Ward 4
Wade company is good one The
company is too we'll known to require
any such eulogy. However, 1t may
be we'll to state that this year 1t is
even bigger and better than hereto
fore. They have two tine bands OF
solo musicians. They carry two cars
to transport the people and the mag
niticient scenic first part The Car
nival OF Venice" and the expense Of
running the show is twice as great
as that OF many of the so-calIed min
st1el shows who endeavor to ape the
Ward & Wade attraction. Harry
Ward is still the manager Of the
company and he promises, and fuldlls
his promises yearly. See the parade,
nea. the bands, listen to the mega
phone singers and 90 to the theatre
and see the biggest and best Of
the refined white minstrel agreRRa-
tiuns.

RAplUM TALK.

The way the Denver papers are
discovering radium in big chunks in
nearly every kind Of mineral is
enough to make the average man
dhgusted. According to their say
1t can be gathered by the bushel in
almost any Of the mines in Colorado,
In the mineral springs and in river
hottoms. AS matter OF fact, 1t is
doubtful il one grain Of pure radium,
such as has been extracted from
pitch blende by the Curies OF France,
has been taken out Of the Rocky
Mountain region. So far there is
perhaps not enough radium in exist
eDoe in all the laboratories Of the
world to make a block Of it one inch
cubic measure, but If the Denver
dreamer continue to sleep there is
danger Of the market being flooded
with the stuff. So far the Greeley
potato has not been affected by uran
ium, but 1T will probably not be long
before these will also pe giving forth
radio activity the same as some OF
the coal mines and quartz hills of
the state.

Hearts OF Oak"

James A. Herne's successful play.
"Hearts OF OAK" was presented at
the Greeley opera house last Saturday
evening by capable company Of
players. The play is somewhat Of
the crying kind and many a spectator
did full justice to it. There we're a
few in the audience who had no rev.
erence in their hearts who laughed
during the most pathetic scenes, hut
these we're soon forgotten in new
pa thos. The play Is wholesome.
withal, and appeals to large class OF
theater goers. The bright particular
star of the evening was the little
yearold baby whose good nature made
many a new papa look green with
envy as he thought of the nocturnal
rambles with his own young hopeful
in his arms.

Antiseptic Treatment of Pneu-
mOuia,

DR.. W. o. Wright OF this city has
an article in the February number of
The Medical World on 'antiseptic
treatment OF pneumonia. AS the
treatment applies especially to high
attitudes it may be Of interest here.
1t follows:
Editor Medical World: Some time
ago you asked me what we were 60
ing to do for our pneumonia patients
this winter. Nine physicians from
New York, Tennessee, Texas, Oregon,
Illinois and Colorado answered in the
November and December issues of
The World. Only one Of them made
reference to This as germ disease: and
but one entertained anything like an
antiseptlc and eliminating theory for
its treatment. This appa rent lndi!:er-
ence or lack Of knowledge of the true
cause and proper treatment of this
disease cause me to ask, MI Bacter-
iolOgjst, where are we at?'
Since the disease is caused by the
PhSoAouIS SCbul, uilC h'Ost ldViOldI
treatment for its cure is to remove
the germs: hence the antiseptic and
eliminative treatment. The most of
tine nine physicians gave their treat
ment in detail, which was similar
and is rather obsolete-with me at
least. One says, I shall use bella.

Congealed Bliss
and Misery -

There are splotches OF the ensan-
guined fluid on Normal hill. The
Junior class colors are dripping with
gore and the entente cordiale between
that and the senior class has had its
tire punctured. To add to this sad
state OF affairs Confectioner Langtr
is hot, very hot, under the collar.
The cause OF all this unp'easantness
and heat, paracoxical IS 1t may seem,
is a four.gallon can Of Ice cream.
A few days ago the State Normal
Junior class decided to have social
at Prof. and Mrs. Carter's residence
and one part Of the menu was to be
ice cream. One Of the young ladies
Of the class vas appointed 4 COM
mittee OF one to order the CONCEALED
delight and she placed 1t with Ar.
Langtry, telling him to deliver it at
the Carter home. Shortly after this
young lady had delivered her order,
two other young ladies, wearing the
stereotyped mortar boards, entered
the Lapgtry establishment and told
that dealer in sweets to deliver the
can of cream ordered by Miss B. at
the south door Of the Normal school,
also stating that they represented
Miss B. in the matter Of changing
locations. Mr.. Langtry delivered
the cream as per second order, and
in less time than it takes to read
this story the contents of the can
had gone where all sweets are in
tended to go, and the senior class
replenished with four gallons or
delicious ice cream, gloated over
their appropriation, merging and
assimilation of the Juniors properly.
The juniors were gathered at the
Carter home and as the refreshment
hour drew near it was discovered
that everything had arrived but the
Ice cream. Then the telephone was
impressed into service and connection
made with the Langtly confecuion-
cry store. 1t took but a minute to
explain matters, but when the jun
iors learned how they had been
buncoed, bilked and swindled out OF
their cream the atmosphere in the
telephone room rose to fever heat
and the things thought, but unsaid,
by the juniors, by the young ladies
and gentlemen. didn't need wrap
pings to protect them from the cold
in fact, they would have ignited any
thing but asbestos.
Then it was that Langtry's short
hair began to SINCE and for time
he was close aboard apoplexy. He
called up the Normal by phone. but
that institution Of learning and prac-
tical Jokes was as silent as tomb.
But not SO with Mr.. Langtry. He
rang and rane and rang and getting
no response he used words that caused
several connections to be burnt out
aud the young lady in the central
Office had to switch hum off in self
protection.
lie next day the seniors sent s6
to Mr., Langtry to pay for the cream.
but he is not satisfied. He demands
and insists on getting an extra Y
of your Uncle Samuels note Of issue,
claiming that his business affairs
have beeu unjustly interferred with
and when they make him an innocent
party 10 their jokes the jokers will
lave to ante, Ard the matter is
still in dispute.

AFTER THE STORM.
Much Sand WASHED Everywhere and Cellars
filled With Water.

The storm left havoc in it's wake
Thursday night. The cellar of Graee's
new houss had been dug and the men
hna begun to lay the bricks. Now
the cellar has almost as much sand
into it MS 1t had before, but it will
not DO as hard to get it out as it will
be to get the sand out of to cellar of
Prof. Fitch's new house, which is
nearly finished and the loads of sand
washed into the cellar will cost about
$40 to have it carried out.
At the corner OF Broadway and
Henry street the rain washed the sand
all over the lawn of William Everett's
house and it is thought that their
cellar must have been full of winter.
1t took three men. two of them the
Chinese lnundrymeu near the corner,
to lift the top off of the sewer so tho
winter could run off.
Two girls made a rush from the
train when they came over from tho
Vaseiine Works ant suddenly found
themselves in pretty deep wator for
being in q public street. Tho shock
of tho water caused them to look
ahead and that just saved them from
going into the manhole of the sewer.
AT Second street and Stevens avenue
party says that fully a fool of sand
was washed up on Mervine's lawn and
the sidewalk was torn up. There
was n cave-in ut the head of Pier A.
The walks around the railroad and
docks were washed by tho storm, but
TRACKS were washed ont. The OK
tont of damage done in tho borough

WANT THE CHILD.
When Little One Saw lis Father II
Cried.

Constable Walling of Kcyport, accom-
panied by two Polish men of Matawan,
were here looking for a child which,
the father, VIII is n widower about to
marry, desired to get possession Of. Ac-
companled by Constable Roberts they
went to the house of a sister of the man
who it was said had the child, but as
soon as the child saw its father it cried
out and was taken away. 1t was then
said that they had gone to the Polish
Priest at Sayreville. They went up
there also (the constablcs and men) but
the priest put the man out and would
have nothing to do with him as the
sister claims he did not use the child
we'll. The man then returned to this
borough and called on the Polish priest
here. just as they were coming down
the path from the priests house the
sister and child passed, Constable Rob
berts said, but they did not take the
child from her which he expected to see
done. OF course that showed that the
sister and child could not have gone to
Sayreville. Roberts says the constable
and men returned to Matawan whtre I'll, v
will get warrants mud are expected to re-
turn here today. He says the sister
claimed four years Loard money was due
her for taking care of the child during
that time.
