Natures Laxative The Best
Many Are So.CaIIed Natural"

There are many Laxatives on the
market that are often STYLED
"Natural' because of the well known
fact that the Laxative which Nature
gives US is the best. Such ones are
pear because in reality they are manu-
featured, and can never attain the in
imitable merits of the product Of Ma
ture. HUNYADI JANOS, the genuine
NATURAL Laxative Water, has stood
at the head for nearly half a century
as the ONLY Laxative whose estab-
lished reputation is it's best recon-
mendation. It remains always the
standard because it is NATURE s
remedy in its original form, pure and
others are, on artificial composition.

Strikers and strikebreakers Fight and
Man is Killed.

Strikers and strikebreakers Fight and
Man is Killed.
Pueblo, May 10.-About o'clock
this morning 100 striking employees of
the Pueblo smelter gathered near that
plant and endeavored to keep the 9TH
er employees from entering the works.
Sheriff Mcmillan and twenty-five dep
uties went to the plant, but by the
time they arrived the mob had increas-
ed to nearly 200 persons. including
many women, and fighting was in pro-
gress between strikers and strike
breakers.
The sheriff's men were attacked
when they endeavored to stop the
trouble. At this juncture a shot was
fired by some one in the crowd and
the sheriff's posse fired a volley into
the crowd, killing an Italian, Mike
Marino, and seriously wounding two
other strikers. The most of them scat
tered. U
Two deputies were badly beaten in
their endeavors to disarm strikers.
The deputies are still on guard at the
smelter. The cause of the disturbance
was the Inauguration of an eight-hour
day at the plant. The men demanded
the same pay for eight hours as for
the former ten hours workday.
