SEVERELY PUNISHED.
Two Denver Election Thieves Get Pen
itentiary Sentences.

Denver, March 12.-In the District
Court yesterday Judge Booth NJ. Ma
lone sentenced Michael Dowd and Pc
ter Miller, each of them, 10 from three
to five years in the penitentiary for
crimes against the ballot. These men
were convicted of election crimes in
Ward Z, Precinct 2, at the polling place
at 1880 Josephine street. Theirs was
the celebrated case where the light
was put out and 31S fraudulent ballots
substituted.
The two men who appeared before
the Supreme Court in the first con-
! tempt case arrogant and smiling. were
yesterday haled before Judge Malone,
pale and trembling. Their bravado had
been broken by confinement in the
crowded jail and knowledge OF what
was to follow.
Judge Malone addressed the men for
twenty minutes. Among other things
he said: You may have thought that
you We .e not only safe and secure, but
that you would also be rewarded. You
may have even been promised both
rewards and security. You may have
thought that what you did was not
bad, but smart. But | assure you that
il was not smart and that it was bad
very bad indeed.
1Ou were not content 10 Simply
stuff the ballot box, but you stole and
destroyed all of the 31s ballots cast
in your precinct. Your conduct was
bold. brazen and raw. II you had
stolen s3lS of money or other common
chattels, you would be a felon and Ii
able to punishment in the Penitentiary
for long series of years.
when you stole those 31S ballots,
you committed, in my opinion, a far
worse crime than the stealing of s3ls
would or could be.
when you stole those 31s ballots,
you deprived 31S American citizens Of
the most sacred right given them un-
der the law, and you endangered the
liberty of every man, woman and child
in this community.
Young men, there is no politics in
this thing. A man who steals ballots
is not a Republican or a Democrat. He
is a criminal and a thief and bad and
dangerous one. This is not politics.
No party which practices or knowingly
profits by election frauds can long sue
coed or long endure.
THE man who puts up such a job
and furnishes the money therefor. is
as bad or worse than the man who
takes the money and does the job. II
is time that election thievery and cleo
tion frauds were stopped in this com
munity. Violators Of election laws
will find that there are some courts
which are not in sympathy with crimes
| against the elective franchise or with
those guilty of them"
The sentence in each case is as fol
lows: THAT you be confined in the
| State Penitentiary of the state of Col

Presidents santo Domingo Message

Washington, March 9.-The Senate
In executive session yesterday made
public the second message of Presi
dent Roosevelt on the Santo Domingo
treaty. The President urges imme-
diate action on the treaty. The mes
sage says:
Many of the debts alleged TO be
due from Santo Domingo to outside
creditors unquestionably on their face
represent far more money than eTer
was actually given to Santo Domingo.
The proposed treaty provides for a
process by which impartial experts
will determine what debts are valid
and what are in whole or in part In
valid. and will apportion accordingly
the surplus revenue available for the
payment of the debts,
"Santo Domingo grievously needs
the aid Of powerful and friendly ma
tion. This aid we are able and | trust
that we are willing to bestow. Sne
has asked for this aid. and the ex-
pressions of friendship repeatedly
sanctioned by the people and the gov
ernment of the United States warrant
her in believing that 1t will not be
withheld in the hour Of her need"

March 13-While General Kuropat-

possible, his losses in men, ammuni-
ton and commissariat supplies in the
battle of Mukden are far greater than
earlier reports indicated, and even that

around Mukden is still in serious

Russian army after the battle of Lao

Interrogation 1-Can the two houses

recited therein?
Interrogation 2-Can the joint con-

the facts recited and set forth in the
said Alexander report?
Interrogation 3-Can the said Joint
convention, in The pending contest pro-
ceedings, in the event of the adoption
of the Alexander report, legally decide
who is entitled to the office OF governor

Shissler's Victims.

Denver. March 13.-At late hour
last night it was reported at the Emer-
gency hospital that Captain Of Police
Bohanna and Police Surgeon Dulin
were improving. DIR. Dulin was struck
by three bullets from the rife of Shiss-
Ter and the bone of his right leg was
shattered below the knee. Another
passed through the calf OF his right
leg. The third bullet ploughed through
the ieshy part of his hip. The bullet
which splintered the bone of the right
leg probably will cause DR.. Dulin to
be a cripple for life, as 1t is now
thought that amputation will be neces-
sary. The injuries of Captain Bohanna
are painful but not serious.
At the hospital last night it was
stated that there was little doubt but
that both the injured men would re-
cover.

OUR NATIONAL PASTRY.
Pie, the Great American Dessert, Espe-
ciaiIy In New England.

"Pie is consumed chiefly by the ma
dve Americans" said Clerk Fortune,
of Chicago, to the Milwaukee Sentinel.
Foreigners eat very little of it. A
German, for example, might eat three
pies a year, while a good Yankee
would consume as many in a week.
The English, the Italians and the
French are small pie eaters. The Eng
lish eat plum pudding and the Italians
like fruit. New England and the Mid
ole states constitutes the area of
greatest consumption, but the pie belt
extends far beyond that, as pie is ex-
tensively eaten all through the West.
Pie is eaten much more generally in
the North than in the South. Chicago
is a great pie center. St. Louis is not
so good. Milwaukee also ranks low.
One would not think that there are
means for ascertaining the facts in re-
gard to pie consumption, but l have
gathered statistics on the subject dur
ing the past two years which enables
me to compute with reasonable cor
rectness the consumption of pies in
every state in the Union. Pies are
made in greater varieties than for
merly, and the supplies are brought
from greater distances-in fact. from
all parts of the world. The season OF
pies made from green fruit have been
prolonged and pies are made of
canned fruit the year round. The
time-honored mince pie has become a
Christmas dessert whose place is sure
and beyond dispute. There is no ex-
port trade in pies, because in crossing
the ocean the crust would become
soggy, which, of course. is the reverse
of the desired condition. 1t is fact
which would surprise many persons.

ment-How She Was Cured.
Every sufferer from nervous headache
knows how completely it units one for
the duties and pleasures of life. Any
little excitement, or over-exertion, or ir-
regularity brings it on. Sometimes the
pain is over the whole head. Again it
is like nail driven into the brain, or a
wedge splitting it open, or band tight
ening about it. At one time it is all in
the top of the head, at another it is all
at the base of the skull.
Most headaches can be traced to some
faulty state of the blood. When the
blood is scanty or charged with poison,
and the nerves are imperfectly nourished
and the digestion weak, one of the COM
monest results is frequent and severe
headaches.
The important thing is to get rid of the
diseased condition of the blood that
causes the attack by the use of remedy
that will do the work quickly and
thoroughly What is that remedy? The
experience of Miss Ellen McKenna fur
nishes the answer. She says:
For more than seven years I was a
great sufferer from nervous headache and
dizziness. My stomach was disordered,
and became SO restless that could not
sit still any length of time. Dizziness
interrupted my work greatly. At first
the attacks were not so severe, but they
gradually grew more violent, and finally
became SO acute that was on the point
of relinquishing my membership III the
different organizations to which l be-
longed."
What saved you from that necessity"
"a very simple thing; the call of
member of one of the clubs, who strongly
advised me to try DIR. Williams Pink Pills
before giving up. acted on her sugges-
ton at once, and after steadily using this
great blood and nerve remedy for two
months, my headaches and my dizzi-
ness entirely disappeared.
Miss McKenna is secretary of the
Associated Ladies' Guild, and resides at
No. 4S Wait street, Roxbury, Mass. DR..
Williams Pink Pills have cured many
hundreds of similar cases, and can be
confidently recommended to drive all
poisons from the blood and to give needed
strength to the nerves. Every druggist
keeps them.
