for Canon City People to Neglect.

Doan's Kidney Pills.
Andrew Carter, blacksmith at the
Portland mine, and living at 109 South
Fourth street, Victor, Colorado, says:
AN attack of the grip four years ago
left me in poor health and as time
went on grew worse. My doctors
bills amounted to over seventy-five
dollars and 1t was just as much money
thrown away. The slightest work tired
me out and If on my feet for an hour
or so severe pains came on me across
the back and extended downward.

THE SHIP-SUBSIDY BILL.

As was expected, the senate has passed
the ship-subsidy bill. The effect will be
to take money from the treasury, paid IN
BY all the people, md turnitover toagroup
of subsidy seekers, already rich, for their
further enrichment and to build up in
the country another great and oppressive
trust. auxiliary TO the street trust, or
part OF it. Should the subsidy lead to
ship construction in American shipyards.
it would be under present circumstances,
virtually a further bonus paid to the
steel trust. For hitherto the cost OF con-
structing merchant ships in American
wards has been unduly high by combina.
tons supported by protective tariff,
which compel the payment for structural
steel and ship plates of a much higher
price than is demanded by these same
producers OF foreign shipbuilders when
they purchase similar commodities.
Haven't we trusts enough? Hasn't

PUT 1T BACK"

Postmaster General Cortelyou recently
delivered an address at Grand Rapids,
Mich. On that occasion Mr.. Corteyou
said:
Hateful as the domination of the boss
has become, there is a tyranny that is
worse than that OF any boss-the tyranny
OF an irresponsible clamor to which weak
men bow and public officials at times
Weld their conscience and their iudg.
ment. Nothing strikes a deadlier blow
at liberty than the insdious appeals
made in her name in times OF public ex-
element. Every convicted violator Of
her immutabe principles should be
scourged to his just punishment, but half
case is no case in her tribunals.'
Can it be possible TIA: in referring to
"the tyranny Of an irresponsible clamor"
Mr.. Cortelyou refers to the criticisms
made with respect to his acceptance OF
campaign funds from money belonging
10 the policvho!ders of great insurance
companies?
We do not remember that Mr.. Cortel.
you or any Of his associates have "y.eld.
ed their conscience and their judgment"
to this particular" clamor."
A great many old-fashioned people be-
lieve that Mr.. Cortelyou, postmaster
general and chairman Of the republican
national committee, would not give great
ofense to his conscience" even though
he went counter to his Judgment" if
he concluded to "put it back"

Groton.-In this quiet Massachu
sets village rs years ago, there LIVED
a family named Crue. Their home was
small farm house in a particularly
lonely location, three miles from other
habitations.
Crue was a teamster, whose duties
compelled him frequently to go to
Aver Junction, several miles away
Sometimes he left home early in the
morning, and remained ia his labors
until sunset. His wife was left under
the protection of dog, who spent a
large part of the day sleeping near
the kitchen stove.
On the morning of January II, 1880,
the home of the Crues was surround
ed with snow. The adjacent woods
were thin and scrawny, and the whole
Immediate world was bleak and chilly.
Now and then biting wind swept
across the open stretches, and whirled
the snow off the roof Of the house. Be-
times the thin spirals of smoke rising
from the chimney contrasted with the
brittle snowscape.
Shortly after dinner Crue told his
wife he had to haul some logs to Aver
Junction, and expected to be late for
supper.
Crue harnessed his horses and
drove away over the white road,
around the windy corner of the tim
Der land and out of sight. His wife
watched his departure with phleg-
matte interest.
During the afternoon a neighbor, on
his way across the country, called to
pay his respects to Mrs. Crue. He
knocked on the door and then, with
out further Formally, turned the knob
and entered. Mrs. Crue sat in her
kitchen talking with stranger. The
neighbor excused himself, said he
merely stopped to say word>o greet
ing, and then withdrew.

Groton became tremendously ex-
cited over the deed. and the medical
examiner and the constables immedi.
ately began to make their investiga-
tions. They found two bullet holes in
the woman's head and another in her
breast. But there were no signs of q
struggle, and there was no robbery.
The officers retained the bullets and
took Impressions of the imprints in
the snow outside the house. Crue was
questioned closely, but he proved an
al1bi. Then the officers surmised that
a tramp committed the deed, and
searched the village thoroughly for
evidence of strangers. Everybody
was puzzled over the apparent alb.
sence of any motive.

Mrs. Crue was at home. He replied
CURLY:
mo. she has gone to town for the
afternoon, to make some calls"
Then the door closed without
further ado.
OF the history Of the day, which i'm.
mediately follows, the husband is the
only authoritative source. He returned
from Aver Junction shortly after sun
set. Much to his surprise, the house
was quite dark
Failing to secure an entrance
through any door, he went to one of
the windows and vainly tried to raise
1t. He concluded that his wife had
taken excellent precautions to prevent
the entrance of strangers. Yet the
drawn curtains, staring him blankly
In the face, made him uneasy. He
walked around the house to the cellar
door. Through the gloom he CROPPED
his way with caution, always sensing
impending disaster. This promonition
grew stronger and stronger as he
mounted the stairs to the kitchen.
Now he proceeded more warily than
ever, listening for any significant
sound. The house was quite silent,
and at last he struck match and hur-
ried to the lamp. The light partly re-
assured him.
Then he decided to look into his
wife's room, and with the lamp in one
hand, he crossed the kitchen. On the
floor, in front of the door to the bed
room, was line of discoloration. At
any other time he might not have no.
ticed it, but he still had a foreboding,
and was curiously observant. First
he glanced around the room, and then
he stopped and felt of the discolora-
ton. When he raised his hand his
fingers were stained and damp.
Found Wife Murdered.
Quickly he pushed open the door Of
the bedroom, and holding the lamp
high above him, he stared into the
room. The huddled figure of Mrs.

was almost worse than nothing. In q
general way the boy knew, as he grew
older, that other boys here and there
enjoyed three nourishing meals a
day, and slept In beds by themselves
and had enough clothing to keep them
warm. Yet it seldom occurred to him
to think much about other boys in this
world, because he was always con-
cerned with the problem of satisfying
his hunger and his craving for warmth.
At the age of Ia he went to Lowell
to obtain employment. But he was a
very helpless wait, who lacked every
lettering influence, who was thorough.
ly cowed-a hopeless waif whose des-
tiny was nine-tenths death or degra-
dalton and one-tenth honest livelihood.
He failed to get job at once. He
could furnish no references, and the
factories needed no small boys. He
fell among disreputable men, who, told
him how to make money with ease.
One companion of the waif from Clare
mont explained that If he forged an
order for SIS he could secure the
money without any danger and
promptly lose himself In some other
city. The boy was without any an
swering argument. Indeed, the plan
appealed to him, for he lacked many
necessities of life. So he made out
an order on a firm for SIS, for work
done, presented it at the cashiers Of
fee, obtained the money, divided it
4; IN
eating house and fed heartily. The lad
was suddenly wealthy.
Given State Prison Term.
But the swindled tradespeople gave
the police an excellent description of
the thief, and the police caught him.
He could only say that he had needed
the money badly, and had taken the
advice of an older man. He couldn't
tell them, however, that he had never
had a fair chance. Lacking the vocab-
ulary, he could not tell them one
tenth of his sordid childhood. No.
body defended him. He went before
the court and received a sentence Of
80 months. Then they took him away,
not to q reformatory, but to state
prison.
He served his time, and left the
prison a jail-bird for life. His first
destination was his home. He wished
to see Claremont, even though he
were a jail-bird and his home a
wretched blur on the rural landscape.
He found nothing changed. His moth
er was still suffering patiently; his

than Stearns Kendall Abbott the
child, went forth to obtain them, not
caring greatly how he obtained them
so long as he succeeded: He broke
into small store and was possessing
himself of its money when the ooun-
try constables arrived and possessed
him. For his onense he served six
years in Concord prison.
|. Thence he went into the army for
service against the. confederacy. Some
body cheated him out OF his bounty
money, and he deserted in Hartford,
Conn.,. He was at once confronted by
the problems Of feeding and clothing
himself, and he followed his bent.
One day he espied mail bag without
protection. He stole the, United
States property, opened it and ap-
propriated It's contents. But they
caught him and sent him to jail for
five more years.
Long Career Of Crime.
He was used to that sort Of life by
this time; and he was unused to any
