tempted to commit suicide this after
noon at $40 by shooting himself with u
revolver. The bail entered his neck at
the right of the Adams apple and came
out at the back. No vital organ was
severed in the bullets course and the
mans attempt was therefore unsuc-
ccssful.
Thc shooting occurred behind a barn
on Farwcll street. lhc first shot was
heard by residents in the vicinity and
several persons came to the scene at
once. Upon seeing them 1Ieckman flour
ishcd his revolver and fired two more
shots in the air. 1t was some minu'es
before he could be approached and ut
last he was overcome and disarmed by
Gustavus Gregoire.
He was taken at once to tho Finer
gcncy hospital. Five men had difficulty
in conducting him there, since he is a
large man and was determined not to
go with them. After his wounds were
dressed he became so violent hat he
was taken to the police station. lie was
able to walk from the hospital to the
station, n distance of about three
fourths of a mile. lie is now IN charge
of the police.
A little while before his attempt
Bcckham was seer talking earnestly
with a young lady on the street. Upon
searching his pockets two pictures OF
a girl and a locket containing hal,
were found. Beckham has been employ
ed in James A. Hearn's tool shop. HI

are certainly q marvellous medicine and
I shall always be glad to recommend
them.
"For two years." he continued, II had
suffered almost uncomfortable pains in my
head. They would start over my eyes
aud shoot upward most frequently, but
they often spread over my face, and 1t
times every part Of my head and face
would be full Of agony. Sometimes the
pains were 20 intense that I actually
feared they would drive me mad.
my eyes ached constantly and there
was always a burning sensation over my
forehead, but the other pains varied,
sometimes they were acute, and again
they were dull and lingering. I could
not sleep. My temper was irritable and
I got no pleasure out Of life.
~ tried remedy after remedy, but
finding no help in any Of them, I be.
came a despairing man. Even when I
began to take DR.. Williams Pink Pills I
had no great hope Of . cure.
THAT was IN December Of 1908. To
my surprise, a change in my condition
took place right away. The pains grew
less intense and the acute attacks were
further apart, as I kept on using DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills. The improvement be-
gan with the first box, and when I had
used six boxes I stopped. Ny cure WAS

LODGE REPLIES TO FOSS.
A feature of the days proceedings was
the address of Senator Henry Cabo;
Lodge in reply to Eugene n. Foss, who
had advocated tho free admission of coal,
hides and the raw materials.
In the course of his remarks, Mr.. Foss
severely scored the Massachusetts scna-
tor and representatives in Congress charg-
ing that they were not loyal to the inter
csts of Massachusetts. Senator Lodge
made n forceful and eloquent address,
and in a parliamentary manner ccnsurcd
Mr.. Foss for his structures on the Massa.
chusetts representation Mt the capital.
Mr.. Lodge also said that the time for tar
i'll revision was the time when the Repub.
party was in power. He ARGUED that
free raw materials was but another
term for free trade and that the adj
mission of free raw materials would sound
tn, death knell of reciprocity az we'll as OF

subject, which shall be expressed in the
title.
The decision was given in the case of
Pratt, as tax collector, VS.. Hee Chan, a
suit for $3.50 taxes. Ashford for the de-
Tense declined to go ahead with the
trial, on the ground that the trial could
not proceed without his consent, under
the sixty days provision. NJ. F. Pros
ser for the Territory attacked the pro-
vision in question, and the court after
hearing argument declared it to be un-
constitutional. The rest of the act
fixing terms of the courts, remains I'M
affected by the judges decision.
Ashford took exception to the courts
ruling, and declined to recognize the
courts right to try the case. He with
drew from the court and Prosser pro-
ceeded to prove the plaintiffs case. The
trial proceeded with only one side rep
resented, and judgment was given for
the amount asked for. An appeal has
been taken to the Supreme Court from
De Bolts ruling as to the term PROPOSE
ton.
A large number Of cases have already
been postponed to the next term on the
mere say so of one side, under the sixty
days clause. Attorneys say that these
cases probably cannot be placed on the
present term calendar, but there are
many left, which may be forced to trial,
especially on the criminal calendar.

JUROR KRUGER
FROM MISSOURI"
WOULD NOT VOTE TO HANG
DEFENDANT UNLESS HE SAW
THE MURDER.

The efforts to get a jury to try the
Takada murder case were resumed
this morning in Judge Lindsay's court.
Progress was quite slow owing to the
number of jurors who objected to cap
ital punishment. The defense excused
A. V. Gear on a peremptory challenge.
Hermann Kruger objected to capital
punishment except for murders which
he saw with his ow neyes He wanted
to be absolutely positive, beyond the
possibility of any doubt, and evidently
would not trust circumstantial evidence,
or any other evidence but those of his
own eyes, in a hanging case. Judge
Perry questioned him about his duties
as a member of the militia, wanting to
know if he would not fire to kill if or
dered to do so by his officers. Kruger
said he would, as it would be his mill
tary duty. He would not admit, how
ever, that it was equally his duty to
vote to hang a man proved guilty UNI
