TICKET BROKERS LOSE
WHO HANDLED G. A. R. TICKETS
Judge Dixon of Pueblo Imposes Heavy
Fines-RaiIroads Cannot Be Kept
Out of Court for Failure
to Pay Tax,

Pueblo, Colo, Sept. 20.-The three
defendants cited to appear before
Judge Dixon and answer to a charge
of contempt of court in having dis
obeyed the injunction against dealing
In Grand Army tickets, were Yesterday
fined in the sum of $3.50 each. Thomas
May of Pueblo and William Schubach
and l. C. We'll of Denver were the men
fined. The case of A. j. Parks. also a
Denver broker, was continued until
Monday. The three men signified their
Intention of paying their fines at once.
The testimony went to show that
spoilers had been hired by the rail-
way companies to purchase tickets
from these brokers. One of these was
Mrs. T. NJ. Slusser, who, after several
attempts, succeeded in buying a Rock
Island ticket from the Pueblo broker
The Denver men were caught in the
same manner and in one instance by
the same woman.
]. F. Crawford, Colorado Springs
broker who had been cited, was the
last defendant examined The testi-
mony in his case revealed the fact that
he had not been named in the restrain
ing order and that he had sold tickets
upon the advice of Judge Orr of Colo
RADIO Springs, who told him he was
safe in doing so under the circum-
stances. Crawford was discharged.
In announcing his decision in the
contempt proceedings Judge Dixon
delved deeply into the law and pre-
vious rulings. Regarding the charge
that the railway companies had not
paid their fiat tax, Judge Dixon said
that the state had forfeited its right
to keep them from coming into court
by not bringing proceedings to compel
them to pay the tax. He said:
II concede the Legislature the right
to pass laws governing corporations,
but deny the Legislature the right to
pass judgment on its own laws, so
made. To merely state that these
roads cannot come into court because
they have failed to pay this tax, would
be divesting them of vested property
rights without any process of law at
all, and that cannot be done"
Among the railroad representatives
who were present at the contempt pro-
ceedings hearing were S. X. Hooper,
general passenger agent of the Rio
Grande; c. B. Sloat, general agent OF
the Rocs Island; T. E. Fisher, general
passenger agent of the Colorado &
Southern; George Ady, general agent
of the Union Pacific; N. Underhill OF
the Colorado Passenger Association,
and j. F. Vallery. general agent of-the
Burlington.

HARDWOOD DISAPPEARS.
Problem of the Supply Twenty Years
Hence a Serious One.


Where the American people will
draw their supply of hardwood from in
1925 or 1850 is a perplexing question"
said William j. Tisdale of Bay City, to
the Milwaukee Free Press. walnut
has practically disappeared from the
lace of the earth, commercially speak
ing, and oak, ash and cherry will go
the same way in another quarter or
half a century. They are fast being
cut down and nothing is done to renew
the supply. The day is not far distant
when the world will look to the vast
forests of Siberia, South America and
Africa for hardwood, and even this ap-
parently limitless supply must some
day be exhausted. There is a big
quantity there vet as the manufactur-
ing in those regions is quite limited,
but when the sawmills of America get
to work on them they can't survive
long. There are many mills in Michi-
gan and in other states that use up fifty
acres of lumber in one day and get
away with twenty-five square miles of
it in a year. That is fast work, and the
forests of this planet are limited 1t is
estimated that in a few years, say four
or five, the supply of oak, ash, cherry
and mahogany will be as completely
exhausted as is that of walnut at the
present time. Unsettled countries
must then contribute their hardwood
freely to the furniture factories of
America, and oak or ash kitchen cabi-
nets will be unknown in the homes of
people of moderate means"

Another Case of TumOr Cured
by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
About three years ago had intense pain
in my stomach, with cramps and raging
headaches. The doctor prescribed for me,
but finding that did not get any better he
examined me and, to my surprise, declared
had tumor in the uterus.
II felt sure that it meant my death warrant,
and was very disheartened. Ispent hundreds
of dollars in doctoring, but the tumor kept
growing, till the doctor said that nothing but
an operation would save me. Fortunately
corresponded with my aunt in the New Engp
and States, who ad vised me to try Lydia IN
Pinl1ham's Vegetable Compound before sub
mitting to an operation, and l at once started
taking regular treatment, finding to my
great relief that my general health began to
improve, and after three months / noticed
that the tumor had reduced in size. kept
on taking the Compound and in ten months
it had entirely disappeared without an oper
alton, and using no medicine but Lydia e.
fail to express how grateful am for the good
it has done me. miss Luella Adams, Colon
made Hotel, Seattle, Wash.
Such unquestionable testimony
proves the value of Lydia e. Pinkharn's
Vegetable Compound, and should give
confidence and hope to every sick
woman.

women to write to her at Lynn. Mass.

GOOD BLOOD FOR BAD
Rheumatism and Other Blood Dis
eases are Cured by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.

"In the lead mines / was at work on my
knees with my elbows pressed against
rock walls, in dampuess and extremes of
cold" said Mr.. J. G.. Meukel, of 1915
jackson avenue, Dubuque, Iowa, in de-
scribing his experience to reporter,
land it is not surprising that con-
tracted rheumatism. For three years
had attacks affecting the joints OF my
ankles, knees and elbows. My ankles
and knees became SO swollen L could
scarcely walk on uneven ground ana q
little pressure from stone under my
feet would cause me so much pain that L
would nearly sink down. L was often
obliged to lie in bed for several days at a
time. My friends who were similarly
troubled were getting no relief from
doctors anfI did not feel encouraged to
throw money away for nothing. By
chance read the story of Robert Yates,
of the Klauer Manufacturing Co., OF
Dubuque, who had a very bad case OF
rheumatism. decided to try DIR. Will
liams Pink Pills for Pale People, the
remedy he had used. In three or four
weeks after beginning to use the pills,
was much better and in three months 1
was well. The swelling of the joints
and the tenderness disappeared, could
work steadily and for eight years have
had no return of the trouble. My whole
family believe in DIR. Williams' Pink
Pills. Both my sons use them. We
consider them household remedy that
we are sure about"
What DR.. Williams Pink Pills did for
Mr.. Meukel they are doing for hundreds
of others. Every dose sends galloping
through the veins. pure, strong, rich, red
blood that strikes straight at the cause of
all i'll health. The new blood restores
regularity, and braces all the organs for
their special tasks. Get the genuine DIR.
