turning with a verdict of guilty

K. Krauss; that she was prompted to
poison her step-daughter by an in

the family which the confession says
were most pleasant the confession

help in supplying strength to bear

One of the greatest American millionaires

One of mans greatest pleasures Is that

MANY good fellow who is living on small
wages, but the rich man without stomach
has TO forego the good things OF the table
because his stomach rebels Without
healthy stomach and good digestion, our
blood is thin, watery and poor, our heart
action is weak, our liver does not do Its
duty, and man is miserable and unhappy.
In this condition man is prey to the germs
of influenza, consumption, malaria and all
the ills that he is heir to. Consumption
can be treated by natural methods which
are as close to nature as possible.

The weather has again cleared UP

the Russian troops whose winter
overcoats have not arrived are suffer

Suspicious movements of the Jap

10 our forgiveness when he does right
The Governor spoke elOquently
against the idea of expansion and of
the theory of world power at the cost
of a great army and navy.
This country became a world
power" said he. when the old Lib
erty bell cracked in proclaiming the
doctrine of the inalienable rights OF
man."
1t is, however, a world power that
wants peace. not war, In exchange
for the present doctrine of war. the
people want the Inauguration of doe
trine of peace. You can't conquer
the world by hate; you can by love.
Let us exchange for the lurid light of
war, the white light of Peace" The
prosperity that is provided in war is
fictitious. 1t appeared in 1866 and
again i'm 1899. The inevitable price
must be paid. When the time comes
for payment, it is not the rich man,
but the poor man, the man who digs
the ground who works with his hands
who foots the bill of cost.
North Carolina, he declared, was
awakening. In ten years he looked
to see her rival Maine. State from
which he had recently returned, in
wealth and all progress. What was
needed was peace and education. SO
we may so forward 10 the great des-
tiny that is deserved of a true and a
brave people.
The Governor met with frequent
and hearty applause. His speech was
in substance of his usual chaste and
eloquent style. / was delivered with
all the fine dignity of the man. 1t

Later Details OF the Search

The search for the dead and missing
of the Kenosha victims began at once
after the FIRE. Messrs. Frank Slosson,
Chas. Allen and Nathan Allen staid IN
Chicago and at once took up til !.
search. Immediately on word being
received in Kenosha of the disaster
delegation or searchers left on the
eight O'Clock train for the city to
search for the missing. This delega-
ton spent the entire night in the
morgues with the result that at about
nine O'Clock in the evening the body
Of Jack VanIngen was found at Jor-
dams and Chas. F. Cooper at Rolston's.
AT FIVE in the morning the bodies of
Ned VanIngen and w. w. Cooper we're
found, the former at Rolston's and the
latter at Jordan's.
A relief corps of searchers went
down on the ten O'Clock train from
here Thursday morning to relieve the
Chicago workers. On arriving in Chi
cago they started on more thorough
search of the morgues with the result
that the body Of Elizabeth VanIngen
was found at the County morgue in the
early afternoon, while the bodies of
Grace and Margaret could not be
found. As a last resort DIR. Kalten.
bach was telegraphed for to come
down. He had chart Of the mouths
of all the victims and it was hoped that
he could in this way identify the
bodies. The searchers first went to
Rolston's and there among the very
first examined he found the bodies of
Grace and Margaret VanIngen which
were shipped to Kenosha Friday
morning.
There is report that there was an
other Kenosha man ia the disaster by
the name of Casper who was identified
by Mr.. Curtis, of the Hosiery works,
but we are unable, after a diligent
search, to get any confirmation of the
rumor.

Farr. Carries His Sister to Safety.


One of the unwritten heroes in the
great fire in Chicago was J. Keith
Pickrell, who is the guest of DR.. and
Mrs. William M. Farr, of this city.
Mr. Pickerell was the last man to leave
the burning theatre from the side exit
and standing fascinated by the picture
of death and destruction he witnessed
the final chapters of the greatest
theatre horror on record. Mr.. Pick
rell, his sister, Miss Beatrice Pickrell,
who is also in Kenosha, and Miss San
born, of Chicago were sitting in one Of
the side boxes.
Pickrel1 was one of the first to start
to pilot his party from the theatre and
he was caught in the great crowd
about the exit. In short time the
flames were threatening his sister and
Miss Sanborn, and Mr.. Pickre1l carried
the two young ladies from the burning
building just in time to save them from
the fate that had been meted out to so
many hundreds. Several times during
his trip he was forced to stop and put
out the flames on the clothing of him
self and his companions. Both Mr..
and Miss Pickrell were slightly burned.
