SHE USED A SHOTGUN.
Young Woman Protects Herself
by Use of Weapon.
SHATTERED HIS ARM.
H. T. Cordell Is in Hospital at Wausau
and May Have to Suffer Am
putation.

Marshfeld, Wis, Sept. 81 Especial. J.
That 81. T. Cordell Of this city, who is
married and has q family, had made I'M
welcome advances toward her, which she
effectively forestalled with a shotgun, is
the assertion Of Miss Louise Zettler, who
lives near Stratford. Cordell is in the
hospital at Wausau, where he was taken
by the sheriff on complaint of Miss Zet-
tier. He will probably have his arm am
putated as the result Of the young wom-
ans good aim with the weapon.
Sent Others Away.
Cordell has been employed in taking
orders for enlarged pictures, and drove to
Stratford with man named Isabel.
When they reached the Juneman home,
where Miss Zettler lives, Cordell it is
alleged, induced Isabel to return to town
with the rig, taking Juneman with him,
telling the latter that there was a tele-
gram for him at the railway station.
Shattered His Arm.
When left alone with Miss Zettler. it
is alleged, Cordell attempted to seize her.
She succeeded in freeing herself, she
says, and fled to the bedroom, which was
Mr.. Juneman's shotgun. When Cordell
pushed aside the curtain to pursue her,
she fired, SCATTERING bis arm When the
other men returned they found Cordell
badly wounded, Miss Zettler still guard
ing herself with the gun.
Wound Dressed at Stratford.
Isabel took Cordell to Stratford,
where the arm was dressed, and then
started to bring him to this city, but
was stopped by the sheriff, who took
Cordell to Wausau, where he was placed
IN a hospital to have his arm amputateG,
if necessary.
Talk of Medal for Woman.
Isabel then came to Marshfield to
break the news to Cordelrs wife and
mother. Miss Zettler went to Wausau
today to act as complaining witness at
Cordelps examination. The people Of
Stratford are much incensed at Cordell
and loud in their praise of Miss Zettler,
even talking Of awarding her a medal for
her bravery.

Mr.. T.. l.. Skrivseth of this place has
been added to the steadily growing fol-
lowing that Dodd's Kidney Pills have
III this part Of the country.
Mr.. Skrivseth gives two reasons for
his faith in the Great American Kid
ney Cure. The first is that they cured
his wife and the second is that they
cured himself
Il must say" says Mr.. Skrivseth,
that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best
remedy for Kidney Trouble | ever
knew. My wife had Kidney Disease
for years and she tried all kinds Of
medicine from doctors but it did not
help her any. An advertisement led
her to try Dodd's Kidney Pills The
first box helped her so much that she
took eight boxes more and now she is
cured
Il also took three boxes myself and
they made me feel better and stronger
IN every way"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have never vet
failed to cure any kidney disease from
Backache to Rheumatism, Diabetes or
Bright's Disease.
