THIRTY HORSES BURNED.
BARN AT HUTCHINSON De.
sTRoYED WITH GREAT LOSS.

Hutchinson, Kan, May 15.-Thirty
or more head of horses were burned
in a fire which destroyed the Mckee
livery barn in First avenue west and
which also burned the interior of the
City Transfer warehouse alongside
the barn.
These horses were the property of
Frank Mckee, the proprietor of the
stable. and of different Hutchinson
people who boarded the animals
there. They were engulfed in the
smoke and flames and were suffocat-
ed. Their bodies were nearly con-
sumed in some instances. The whole
space occupied by the barn looks like
a scene from battlefield or a char
mel house. 1t is a terrible thing to
look at and the owners of the animals
are sorrowful 1t sounds the end Of

UNHAPPY SANTO DOMINGO.

Washington, May 15.-Reports have
reached the state department of the
organization of another revolutionary
movement directed against the gov
ernment of President Caceres of San
to Domingo. 1t is understood that
the island of Porto Rico is the base
of operations and it is supposed that
ex-President Morales and Jiminez are
the leaders of the movement. In
structions have been sent to the in
sular governor of Porto Rico to take
steps to carry out the neutrality laws
which would prevent the organization
and departure of any hostile expedi-
ton, and the American warships sur
rounding the island of San Domingo
will also be instructed to prevent any
landing of hostile forces.

LAEoR MEMBERS DEMAND I'M
MEDIATE AMNESTY.
MAY DAY NOT MENTIONED
Polish Deputies Begin Campaign for
Autonomy = Government PrePar-
ing for Possible May Day Disorders
Reply to Speech From Throne.

st. Petersburg, May 15.-Another OF
the incipient radical revolts with
which it is apparent the Constitution
al Democratic majority must contlnu-
ally contend, broke out in the lower
house of the parliament when Labor
members introduced resolutions for
the immediate submission to Emper-
or Nicholas by telegraph OF a demand
that amnesty be proclaimed at once.
In view of the May day demonstra-
tions and the arrests that are expect
ed the Constitutional Democratic
leaders were scarcely able to stave
off so precipitate a more, which would
undo all the results of their modera-
tion, by sending their best orators in
to the fray when Professor Ko-
valevsky, a free lance member. pro-
posed that instead of telegraphing
the house send President Mouromt-
self to Peterhof with the request for
immediate amnesty.
This threatened to sweep the house,
but the Constitutional Democrats, by
sharp politics, managed to sidetrack
the matter until after the selection of
a commission which, according to
Russian procedure, occupied several
hours, and then were able to defeat
it,
After this incident the lower house
adjourned. May day was not men
toned, but abandonment of the ses-
sion was dictated out of respect for
the Socialist holiday as we'll as with
the desire to give the commission
adequate time to draft the reply to
the speech from the throne.
The Polish deputies began their
campaign for autonomy by introduc-
ing a resolution for the inclusion OF
a paragraph on that subject in the
reply to the speech from the throne,
pointing out that the fundamental
law, which establishes the special po-
sition of Finland, does not mention
the relations of Poland to the empire,
and the governments attitude in re-
garding the absorption of Poland as
an accomplished fact is thereby mani
tested. The house turned over the
resolution to a commission without
recommendation.
Though the Socialists and workmen
of st. Petersburg have proclaimed
their intention of celebrating May day
peaceably, the government has made
preparations on a large scale to meet
possible disorders. Patrols are on
many streets in the industrial quar-
ters.

TRUE SOUTHERN cHlvALRY
Kentucky Colonel Didn't Apologize,
But He Came Very Near
Doing It.

Many stories have been told of south.
ern chivalry, but the palm apears to go
to story told by former governor of
Kentucky while visiting Philadelphia re-
Gently.
According to the narrator, a genuine
Kentucky colonel boarded a street car
which was very crowded, and somehow
he stepped on the foot of very pretty
woman. Of course, the woman expected
the colonel to apologize, just as did
everybody else who heard her give a
mouselike squeal when the coloneiSs foot
came down.
And she looked as though she expected
an apology, but the colonel, divining her
thought, doffed his hat and said: .'No,
madam, I'm not going to apologize When
the good Lord was so gracious as to
make women so beautiful and charming
and with such wonderfully small feet
that a man has to tramp on them 20 find
them, then 1 don't think that an apoI-
ogy-"
The compliment was too graceful for
the woman to resist, and all that fol-
lowed was a smiling acknowledgment of
the colonel's gallant speech.

we'll, whether it rains or shines, she
must get to her place of employment,
perform the duties eXacted of her
smile and be agreeable.
Among this class the symptoms of
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part of the
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wetting of the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite, until life is burden.
All these symptoms point to a de-
rangement of the female organism
which can be easily and promptly
cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound.
Miss Abby F. Barrows, Nelsonville,
Athens Co., Ohio, tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham =

It is to such girls that Mrs. Pink
ham holds out helping hand and ex-
tends a cordial invitation to correspond
with her. She is daughter in-law of
Lydia Z. Pinkham and for twenty five
years has been advising sick women

her letters of advice of untold value to
