Pneumonia is too dangerous dlsease
for anyone to attempt to doctor himself,
although he may have the proper RENE

from a cold or from an attack OF the grip,
and that by giving Chamberlain's. Cough

LeavenWorth Is the Scene Of a
Saloon killing.
Bartender Kyle Shoots Two
Men, One Fatally.
DEAD MAN, SPECTATOR
The Fight Started in Quarrel
Over Gambling.
Some Talk of Lynching Created
Bit of Excitement.

Leavenworth, Kan, March 22.-Wal-
ter Kyle, a bartender employed at Pen
nington's saloon. on Third and Della
ware streets, last night shot and killed
]. r. Walkinwitz and probably fatally
injured John Beechler, well known
gambler and sporting man. The shoot
ing occurred in Pennington's saloon,
and was the result of dispute over
something that occurred in the gam
bling parlors upstairs.
Kyle was arrested at once and was
taken to the police station. Physicians
were called and gave the wounded men
every attention, but Walkinwitz, being
shot through the abdomen, died in a
few minutes. 1t is said WalkInW1tz
took no part in the quarrel, but was the
victim of bullet intender for Beechler.
Several soldiers were present at the
time of the shooting, but they have not
been located by the police.
A large crowd gathered at the police
violence. Kyle was secretly placed in a
hack and driven to the county Jail. The
police said they did not fear mob vio-
lence but thought it safest to move the
murderer While in the station. Kyle
was too excited to talk sensibly. He
comes from Weston, Mo-, and is a
nephew, he claims, of Mr.. Kyle of Lam
sing Kan, who was one of the original
members of the town company that
worth.
At last reports it was thought Beech
Ter would recover. He is shot in the
forehead, but the ball glanced. Walkin-
Wits wife was brought to the scene,
but he was dead when she arrived.

Pratt County Assessment.

The assessors of Pratt county at their
annual meeting this week took action
for which they should be highly COM
mended. Heretofore property has been
assessed at one-fourth its actual value
and then the constitutional exemption
of 5000 has been subtracted. This leaves
the average man with little or no tax
to pay For instance, n man has per-
sonal property costing $1,000. 1t is as
sessed on the basis of 5000 as its
present worth. One-fourth of this is
1925. After taking out 5000 there is LETT
only S25 on which to pay tax. 1t is
no wonder that the tax rate is 10 per
cent or more in this county. BY the
method the assessors agreed upon the
5000 Will be subtracted from the value
before the amount is divided by four.

In taking swamp-Root you afford

Swamp Root is the great discovery of
Dr. Kilmer. the eminent kidney and

with wonderful success in both slight
it to their patients and use it in their
own families, because they recognize
in Swamp-Root the greatest and most
successful remedy for any arrangement
of the kidneys, liver and bladder.
So successful is Swamp Root in
promptly curing even the most Distress
ing cases, that to prove its wonderful
merits you may have a sample bottle

MAY BE A TEST CASE.
Suit Filed in SaIina to Recover Loss
bv Prairie Fire.

What will probably be test case Tor
damages resulting from prairie ire
on the afternoon of March 2, when
more than one person lost heavily
financially by the sudden change of the
wind, is case filed in the Saline dis
trict court by James Blakesley.
Mr. Blakesley sues Alex and August
Daum for 81, 900 damages for the loss
of ten stacks of hay valued at that
amount. The fire occurred on the after
noon of March 2 in Spring Creek town
ship, and the plaintiff AYERS in his pc
tition that between his place and the
property of the defendants there is a
40-foot highway, only about five feet of
which is not in it's natural state-that
is to say, it is virtually prairie. Blakes-
ley also alleges that the defendants
without plowing fire guard or taking
any other precaution, negligently,
wantonly and carelessly set fire to
prairie grass and went away and left
the fire, which spread across the high
way and destroyed the property of the
plaintiff. for which he asks $1,000 dam
ages. Several such cases might be
started in this county with good grace.

A Big House VIII Witness the
San Francisco Fight.
Already Over $4,000 Cash in
at the Box Office.
GOOD BOUT EXPECTED.
Young Corbett Is the Favorite
In the Betting.
Jimmy Britt Is a Tough Young
ater to Handle.

San Francisco, March 22.-'sYoung''
Corbett, champion of champions, and
Jimmy Britt, California's greatest box
er. are now training for their twenty
round contest for the worlds feather
weight championship, which will take
place before the Hayes Valley Athletic
club, San Francisco, next Friday even
ing.
The fight, regardless of the title
which hinges upon it, is causing more
interest in San Francisco than any
since that between Jim Jeffries and
Jim Corbett. Britt is a native SON.
and the best lightweight California has
turned out in years, and Corbett, be-
cause of the numerous championship
battles he has taken part in in that
city, isafavorite. This makes the matcn
the best, from a box office standpoint, II
nothing else. that could have been ar
ranged. The chickering's INDUCED in by
the principals and the fact that the
managers of the various Frisco CLUBS
fought tooth and nail to secure the at
traction has made it a much talked OF
fistic affair. The Colma club, the first
to sign the boys, for the princely purse
of SIS, ZOO, and later repudiated by Britt,
and the success of the Hayes Valley or
ganization in securing it brought about
a fight between the managers that al
most killed the game in that city
The Corbett people want to bet al
10 to z. but there are few takers.
The fight is going to be worth the
battle. The returns from the oox Office
end of the event prove that already
over $500 has been taken in in good
solid cash and there are still many ex-
tensive reservations to be accounted LOT
The sale OF seats has, in fact, peer
phenomenal, as it will unquestIonapiy

The city turned loose nine buns this
morning who have been protesting to
work on the rock pile for the past
week. The time of several of them
has expired: the rest are too lazy to
earn their board breaking rock. They
spent most of their time complaining
because they didn't get enough to eat
They were a hungry and vicious lot,
about the worst the city has ever had
anything to do with. They were all
buns absolutely opposed to work. They
had spent the winter in the city and
under the barrel houses, and as spring
was. coming on they started out again
on the road.-Iola Record.
