SPIDELL MAKES A HIT
Former Seattle Player Is Star at the
University of Chicago.

another Heston,' is the way Uni
versity of Chicago students regard
William Spidell, the new football ac-
QUESTION from the University of WASH
ington, says the Chicago Daily News.
Spidell was in the game at left half
against Englewood yesterday and did
some of the cleverest advancing of the
ball seen on Marshal field for several
seasons. He is built like Heston-
short and stocky-and showed that he
could keep his legs just as we'll and
Wiggle out of a bunch just as easily
as the famous Wolverine, whom Wal
ter Camp placed on the all-American
team last year.

at the game. He has played three years
Of collegiate football at the University
Of Washington, having captained his
team last year. He played at Engle-
and was al that time regarded as one
of the best prep men in the west. He
weighs 1S5 pounds and is fleet of foot.
He is of such calber that he could
easily be transferred to the line His
experience at quarterback will I'M
doubtedly make him the best utility
man on the Maroon squad this year.
Against the EngleWood youngsters
yesterday Spidell ploWed up the line
on straight and cross plunges and
proved the hardest man on the Maroon
team to go down. Once he carried
three men clinging to him for fifteen
yards, and another time he hurdled
the line and hurled over four men be-
fore they could tackle him. finally
crossing the goal line with one Enele-
wood youngster banging to his -
and another on his back. with third
Juggling at his waist.
The best feature of his playing seems
to be that he can keep his legs. He Is
not particularly brilliant at end run
ming, but is a clever dOdger, and on
account of his stockiness, is a hard
man to tackle and lay low when he is
on the run.

BLAMEs OTHERS FOR HIS CRIMES
Dr.. Otto A. Martiny Says Tacoma Man
Forced Him to Pay BlackmaI.

TACOMA, Sept. 29.-Sheriff Den
holm has returned from Eagle Pass,
Tex, with DR.. Otto A. Martiny, the
Eatonville physician, who absconded
about ten months ago after numerous
crooked operations. He is very peni-
tent and says he will plead guilty.
Dr. Martiny made a rather surpris-
ing disclosure at the county Jail this
afternoon When he declared that his
populations were caused by a system of
blackmail levied upon him by a man
prominent in Pierce county politics who
knew he had been in trouble before
and demanded hush money. He says
he paid this man over $1,000, and the
drain upon his resources finally be-
came so great that he was unable to
stand it.
He has not employed an attorney,
and says he will not, he determining
to plead guilty to the charge made
against him and throw himself on the
mercy Of the court. Mrs. Martiny, who
has been faithful to her husband even
to the extent of assisting him in his
efforts to avoid capture, is expected to
arrive in Tacoma tonight Or tomorrow.

ENDS AGONY BY SUICIDE
Wounded Youth Takes His Own Life
While Friends Go for Surgeon.

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 29.-After
suffering untold agonies from ter
ribe wound in his abdomen, Milas
Snafer shot himself through the head
on NashOn island near the dry dock.
Friends who were with him when he
received the accidental wound had gone
for medical assistance. On their return
they found only the mutilated remains
of their associate.
Shafer was but IS years of age, and
owned a small ranch near the dry
dock on the island His relatives live
in WinslOw, and an attempt has been
made to notify them of the tragedy.
The young man went out hunting
with a couple of friends. They had
tramped over a considerable area of
land and had bagged some game. Sha-
fer carried a shotgun, and carelessly
dragged it along b the muzzle. Both
barrels of the shotgun suddenly eX-
ploded. and Shafer dropped to the
ground writhing in agony. His friends
rushed to his assistance, but at first he
could tell little of wnat had happened.
Both Barrels Discharged.
The other men made a close investi-
cation of the victims condition and
found that the contents of both barrels
had struck him in the abdomen. Sha-
y
not tell how the accident occurred. 1t
is believed, however. that while drag
ging the gun along in careless man
ner the hammers caught against some
object and the cartridges We're in that
way exploded.
While Shafer was writhing and
moaning in unconscious agony his
friends ran to the nearest settlements
for assistance. A physician lived not far
distant and they hoped to find him.
They returned in short time with a
physician and a gruesOme sight met
their gaze. Skaters head had been al
most shot to pieces. The contents of
one cartridge from the shot gun had
struck him full in the face almost
tearing his head from his body.
1t is thought probable that while his
friends We're away Shafer had revived
sufficiently to realize that death would
almost surely come after days of ling
ering torture, or had become so near
ly crazed with pain that he ceased to
be responsible for his actions.
Loads Gun Again.
The accidental discharge of the gun
emptied both barrels of the shotgun. In
spite of his desperate wound, the vic
tim managed to reach into his cartridge
belt for another shell and fitted it into
the shotgun. Then he placed the muz-
zle of the piece to his head, reached for
the trigger and pulled it. His head was
compeltely shattered, and death must
have been instantaneous.

MANY CONVICTIONS SECURED
Seattle Humane Officer Clark Makes
Annual Report to Mayor.

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 29--Out of
100 arrests made by Humane Officer
F.. w. Clark and his assistant, John
Naupell, in the year ending September
l, there We're ninety-one convictions
in the lower court. This is shown in
the annual report of Officer Clark made
to Mayor Ballinger today.
The total number of cases reported
and investigated was 1897. OF these
1872 reports related to children with a
total of 341 children involved. Many
Of the number were legally turned over
to the Washington Children's Home
Society where good homes were found
for them. Officer Clark commends the
work Of the society.
Dozens of cases of restitution We're
referred to the charity organizations,
where it was seen that aid was given.
Conditions Are Improved.
A big majority of the cases reported
were for cruelty to animals. The hui
name OHlcer says tnat the general con-
dition of horses in Seattle mas greatly
improved in the last year.
Much attention has been paid to the
shipping and killing of stock intended
for food. The methods in both have
improved, the officer says, and are as
good as can be expected.
Livery barns, boarding stables and
other places where stock is kept are
generally in good condition. Mango
had an alarming start among horses
and dogs for a month, but it was
checked.
New Law Recommended.
A law to limit the weight Of a load
to be hauled up the hills is recon-
mende0. Many horses are pulled to
death III time from overlooking. The
teamsters are said to favor such law
but without it they are compelled to
overload in order to compete with their
neighbors.

writes:
81 find that Pcruna is an excellent
medicine especially for catarrhal affcc-
tions and all diseases leading to con-
sumption, bronchial troubles or stomach
troubles. It also acts as preventative
and keeps the system in q healthy con-
dition so that it easily throws off dis
ease. 1t is an excellent tonic and a
great appetizer and as large number
of those who have been using it speak
very highly Of its curative powers, ! am
satisfied that my opinion of it is correct,
and thatiti is deserving OF high praise"
j. II. Hipplcgate.
Peruna is the remedy for catarrh. Al
most everybody knows that by hearsay
and thousands know il by experience.
Catarrh in its various forms is rapidly
becoming national curse. An UNI
doubted remedy has been discovered by
DR.. Hartman. This remedy has been
thoroughly tested during tho past forty
years. Peruna cures catarrh In all
phases and stages. There is no remedy
that can be substituted.
II you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving
full statement Of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable adj
vice gratis.
