GORE CANON SUIT.
Federal Authorities Ask Injunction
Against Moffat Road.

Denver, May THE second move
In the Gore canon controversy on the
part OF representatives OF the United
States government; was made yester-
day when bill for an injunction was
filed In the Federal Court asking that
the Denver, Northwestern & Pacific
railroad be restrained from construct
ing its line through Gore canon. The
suit is similar to the one instituted
several days ago. which asked that the
right Of way OF the road be vacated.
This one is little stronger. 1t de-
mands speedy action to prevent the
road from getting into the canon.
The papers were served on Charles

night. A hearing In the matter has
been set for next Thursday before

New York. May 4.-Having failed

This case has nothing extraordi-
nary In It, So far as the testimony
goes, two persons most spoken OF dur
ing the entire proceedings. the de-
ceased. man by the name OF Young,
a race track man. had this defendant
to live with him as his mistress. The
mans death, because of the personal
ity of this man Young. had nothing in
II to excite your passions or your pre-
judices. He was mere gambler. a
race track follower. Therefore. you
should be able to consider the facts
calmly without prejudice and passion.
III the accused fails to take advan-
tage Of her privilege to make a de-
fense. under the advice of her coun-
sci, her failure to do so must in no
way be held against her.
"Of course. gentlemen, you must not
think that, because OF the humble po-
sition Of this woman, you should not
give her the same consideration as II
she occupied more exalted position
in society. Whatever her position, she
is entitled to the same legal rights
as the most prominent and most con-
spicuous.
''If there be reasonable doubt in
this case on the evidence, this doubt
must be thrown into the balance for
the defendant. A danger lies In the
remarks Of counsel which might take
your mind of the direct Issue. You
must avoid this danger"

How . Woman Was Freed from Troubles
That Had Made Life wretched for
Many Years.
The immediate causes Of headaches
vary, but most Of them come from poor
or poisoned blood. In snemia the blood
is scanty or thin; the nerves are imper-
fectly nourished and pain is the way in
which they express their weakness. In
colds the blood absorbs poison from the
mucous surfaces, and the poison irritates
the nerves and produces pain. In rheu-
matism, malaria and the grip, the poison
In the blood produces like discomfort. In
indigestion the gases from the impure
matter kept In the system AFFECT the
blood In the same way.
Tho ordinary headache-cures at best
give only temporary relief. They deaden
the pain but do not drive the poison out
Of the blood. DIR. Williams Pink Pills
ON the contrary thoroughly renew tho
blood and tho pain disappears perma-
nently. Women In particular have found
those pills an unfailing relief in head.
