LAST SHOT FIRED
 BIG TOURNAMENT
Averages for thr Four Days Shooting
 Were High.

The thirteenth annual tournament of the Arizona Sportsmens association came to a close yesterday after four days of some of the best target shoot ing ever witnessed in the west AL though there were no records broken
 the contest all the way through was one of interest to gunners and to the members of the association it was of
 special interest for the averages were
 so close that not until the last target
 had been shot was any one secure of the title amateur champion of Ari- zona, for the year. As it finally re-
 suited W. J. Rand of Fl Paso is en- titled to that distinction He hit 32G targets out of the 345 shot at during the entire meet. His score was tied 1 by w. H. Seever, a professional who
 represents the Winchester company. | Tanner of Phoenix came second in best
 general average score. 325; Bulwer of
 Fl Paso third, score 929, and Aiken of Phoenix fourth, score 322.
 | It was cold and cloudy yesterday morning wnen the marksmen gathered at the traps near Eastlake park. There
 was. too. a considerable wind and :he | general averages were doomed to suf- | fer thereby. It was the plan to close
 the tournament and although it took | until dark to accomplish it, that was ', done. At noon a lunch was served I and during the day there were several hundred visitors at the traps. In all II 216 targets were shot at, 115 of which Il counted on the general average race Rand of Fl Paso made the record fol

THE BIG PAGERS
 IMMEDIATE FUTURE
They May be Kept in Phoenix Until
 Warm Weather.

There is considerable interest just now as to what will be done with Zo- lock and Hazel Patch in the immediate future; whether they will be taken elsewhere or be kept here for a time until the weather gets warmer in the racing country. MT. Delaney was not interrogated yet concerning his horse but MT. Sherman when asked yester- day said he had not fully decided what ne would do next. He will be here a few days more anyway but whether for long or not, MT. Sherman could not say.
 Speaking of the exhibition of Hazel Patch on Saturday, MT. Sherman said he was just a little disappointed in one thing. He had understood that there was to be a runner to pace the lead horse in the first heat as there was in the second but through some misun- derstanding none was provided. The first heat, though a quarter second slower than the second at the finish, was at the three quarter pole a sec ond and a quarter faster. Hazel Patch, he says, has a faculty for loafing un- less he is urged and MT. Sherman be- lieves that if there had been a runner on hand to meet him in the stretch during the first heat, the time would have been at least two seconds faster
 than it was. Two-five and a half is
 by no means slow, but 2:03 1-2 would have been better. MT. Sherman says Hazel Patch, in his opinion, was never | in better condition than on Saturday
 not even on the occasion of his famous race at Lexington, Ky, which was giv- i en wide publicity in the papers every where In concluding, however, MT | Sherman says that putting aside wha
 might have been done, the time actual | ly recorded on Saturday was nothing : less than marvellous when the season of the year is taken into account i Though the track could not be better on the surface the moisture that |: necessarily retained below during this | cool weather makes the track less re | silent.

No other remedy is so we'll adapted to the treatment of sick kidneys. It is purely vegetable and each element in it was chosen for its direct and beneficial action on the kidneys. Fifty thousand people, representing every section of the United States, publicly recommend Doan's Kidney Pills.
 ONE WOMAN'S CURE.
 Mrs. F. Maldonado, residence 341 north Main street, Tucson Arizona, says: About a year ago l first mo- ticed kidney complaint and since then at different times the aching has been almost constant. It was just across the small of the back and when not suf- fering from severe twinges, the stiff ness and soreness were so evident that I could scarcely get up or down from chair. In addition to the backache. there were headaches. dizziness and sleeplessness at night, which caused a tired and depressed feeling the follow ing day. I saw DOan's Kidney Pills so highly recommended when the last attack was in the acute stage that l went for a box. It astOunded me how quickly they helped. A continuation stopped the aching, removed the sore ness and radically disposed of other indications of over excited kidneys"

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and q
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in physician only in specially
urgent cases. By, tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took great interest
In the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods Of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-

ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective Dpedi-
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was rare combine
ton of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecus
liar to the female sex, and Lydia e. Pink
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them. 8
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as .
labor Of love.
But in 1879 the financial crisis struck
Lynn Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the PinlSham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen-
NAL year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found, ft3
At this point Lydia e. PinlSham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.

Compulsory Education.

Even in colonial times law of the
general court of Massachusetts decreed
that in every town the selectmen
should prosecute those who refused to
train their children in learning and
labor" and fine of 20 shillings was
imposed upon those who neglected to
teach their children 80 much learning
as may enable them perfectly to read
the English tongue" But it was not
until the nineteenth century that state
laws with specific penalties were
enacted. In Massachusetts truant
law was passed in 1850, and com
pulsory law in 1852, requiring a mini
mum OF IL weeks attendance on school
each year for children between the
ages Of eight and fourteen. To-day in
Massachusetts, child is required to at
tend the full time.

Literary Complication.

One effect of the erection of Nor
way into an independent kingdom has
been to foster nationalist feeling in
many unexpected directions Just
now Ibsen and Bjornson are being
taken to task severely for having
their works published by Danish
instead of a Norwegian firm, and
thereby sanctioning and perpetuating
the spelling of many words in the.
Danish rather than the Norwegian
fashion. In tho first week Of his
reign King Haakon was paternally re-
buked by Bjornsen himself for making
use Of Danish idioms.

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were STEPPED on the stove,
gradually filling gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam
lily had saved enough money to COM
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success of
the enterprise were assured, until to-
day Lydia e. Pinkham and her Vege-
table Compound have become house.
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe-
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful topre-
serve record of every case that came to
her attent ton. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were thousands-received
careful study. and the details, includ-
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent vast collabora-
ton of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her
daughter in law, the present Mrs.
Pinlkham. She was carefully instructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when its origina-
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia e. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother Of large family, took
1t up. With women assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this greatworlz and
probably from the office OF no other
person have so many women been adj
yised how to regain health Sick wo-
men, this advice is 'sYours for Health"
freely given If you only write to ask
for It.
