they took her up in the mountains for
an outing.

Accordingly. tearing a leaf from her
notebook she scribbled upon it in pencil
this note:

This note she put in an old powder
can which she found lying at her feet,
and, digging hole in the ground, buried
It. She returned to her home in Omaha
a few days later and forgot all about
the incident.
Recently Richard Percell, u miner from
Montana, with a partner, was pros

city. He stuck his pick in the ground
at the spot where the Omaha young
lady's friends had taken her for an out

he to his partner. Il believe that young

BLOODY MURDER SATURDAY
STABBED TO DEATH IN FRONT
OF DISTRICT PARSONAGE.
Three Negroes Implicated in Crime,
and Two of Them Are Yetat Large.
Woman Cause of Tragedy.

With the large artery near the
heart Sc vered, another stab in the back
and wound on the head made by
a blow with a stick Claude Robinson,
a negro who lived on the farm of Bill
Doogan, north of Dawson, died in
DR.. J. w. Patterson's Office Saturday
evening a few minutes after he had
been murderOusly assaulted.
Coroner G. T. Buchanan empanelled
a jury and held an inquest, the verdict
being that Robinson came to his death
from wounds inflicted by Rob Hol-
loway, Buster Willis and Wash Hol-
loway.
The stab near the heart was inflicted
by Rob Holloway and the one IN the
back by Buster Willis, and the blow
on the head was struck by Wash Hol-
lowav. who is the father of Rob HOl-
1oway and a well-known negro Baptist
preacher,
The difficulty occurred about five
front of the Methodist district parson-
are on Main street, and although
many people were on the street at that
time going home from the city, the
particulars of the tragedy are hard
to get. 1t appears that Robinson,
Buster Willis and Bob Holloway had
had a previous difficulty about a wo-
man. and that as the former was leav-
inc town about night in buggy he
was accost9d by Bob Holloway and
Buster Willis, who were on the side
walk in front of the parsonage. hob
inson got out of the tuggy and went
to them, saying he wanted to settle
the trouble peacefully. The diff
ficulty was renewed, however, and
in a short while Holloway was lying
in the street sweltering in his llte's
blood. He was put IN his buggy and
taken to DR.. Patterson's Office, where
he expired almost Immediately.
The negroes who assaulted him lived
in the same neighbOrhOOd their victim
did, and they at once left in that d.
rection. Sheriff Oxford secured the
county's .bloodhounds and tracked the
'murderers in the direction OF their
homes. and Deputy Sheriff Slade and
Chief of Police Miles Hill also went IN
pursuit, but the fugitives had been to
their homes and left when the officers
arrived.
Wash Holloway was caught Sun
day, but his son, Bob Holloway, and
Buster Willis are still at large.

BELL BROTHERS, DRUGGISTS.
Say That the Wonderful Popularity
of VinOI Is Due to lntrin-
sic Merit.

"The intrinsic merit of this new cod
liver oil preparation, Vinol, said
Mr.. Bell of Bell Bros, "is beginning
to be realized by the people of Daw-
son. OF course in my position as a
druggist | have seen innumerable
medicines and proprietary articles in
troduced, but never in my long eXpe-
rience have I ever known or heard of
a medicine that would produce more
beneficial results than VinOl.
81 attribute this to the fact that Vi
mol contains in a concentrated form
all the medicinal elements contained
in cod liver oil, actually taken from
fresh Gods livers, but without a drop
of oil or grease to nauseate and upset
the stomach, and it contains no sick
ening drugs.
"A prominent physician writes;
'Vinol is the most valuable prepare
ton of cod liver oil known to medi-
cine. 1t is of untold value to create
strength and build up the general
system for old people, weak women
and children, and it has no equal for
hard colds, bronchial and all lung af-
fectiOns.
"In cases where cod liver oil, emul-
sions and other tOnics fail Vinol will
heal, strengthen and cure.
"There are hundreds Of people right
here in Dawson who can testify that
there is nothing equal to Vinol to
make rich, red blood, to increase the
appetite, to cure stomach troubles,
give strength and renewed vitality to
the aged, build up the run down, tired
and debilitated, make the weak strong
and cure cronic coughs, colds and
build up the cOnvalescent.
! 1--WE frequently offer to return your
money in every case where VinOl fails.
