''I am not feeling very we'll" "I am so nervous it seems as though I should fly My back aches as though 1t would break"
 How often do you hear these signi- fcant expressions from wome n friends. More than likely you speak the same words yourself, and there is a cause.
 More than thirty years ago Lydia E. Pinkham of Lynn. Mass. discovered the source of nearly all the suffering endured by her sex. "Woman's Ills, :" these two words are full of more misery to women than any other two words that can be found in the English language. Sudden fainting, depression of spirits. reluctance to go anywhere, backaches, headaches, nervousness, sleeplessness, bearing down sensations, displacements and irregularities are the bane of woman's existence.
 The same woman who discovered the cause of all this misery also discovered a remedy. Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs holds the record for a greater number of absolute cures of female ills than any other one medy the world has ever known and ii is the greatest blessing which ever came into the lives of suffering wo len.
 Don't try to endure, but cure the cause of all your suffering. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. The following Letters prove this l;

Mrs. W. s. Ford of 1888 Lansdowne St., Baltimore, Md. writes
 Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
 For four years my life was a misery to me. I suffered from irregularities, sup presSion, terrible dragging sensations and extreme nervousness. l had given up all hope of ever being well again when Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was recommended. It cured my weakness and made me well and strong"
 Miss Grace E. Miller, of 1913 Michi- gan St., Buffalo, N. Y. writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham :--
 "I was in a very bad condition of health generally; irritable, cross, backache and suffered from feminine weakness. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, cured me after all other medicines had failed"
 What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound did for Mrs. Ford and Miss Miller it will do for other women in like condition. Every suffering woman in the United States is asked to accept the following invitation. It is free, will bring you health and may save your life.

{. {. CARTER IS FINED $50
CLAIMS STORE CLERK GAVE HIM
PAIR OF SHOES TO
SELL,

The hearing of Clarence E. Carter,
charged with petit larceny, was held
in Judge Huffman's court this morL-
ing The case though of a simple ma
ture was unusually interesting in that
the defendant plead not guilty claim
ing that the pair of shoes found in his
possession was given to him by
Charles Miller, an employe of j. l..
BrowI..
When arrested yesterday Garter
had in his possession, new pair OF
boys shoes. When taken to the police
station, he professed his innocence.
Carter astonished the court by saying
that he was given the shoes by Brown
who is employed in the secondhand
store owned by Brown. After listening
to the plea of Carter for some time the
court put a sudden end to the case oy
finding Carter guilty as charged, ana
fining him $50. AS the defendant was

FIGHT AGAINST
FAIR SALOON
Warrant Served on GeorQe
Motel for Selling Liquor

A complaint was made and Warrant
served yesterday evening for the aTest
of George Mottet on the charge of sell7
ing liquor without license.~.Th COM
plaint was made by w. p Hershey.
and the case was set for hearing in
the justice court at o'clock this~ af :
ternoon "a
With the arrest of Mottet, the tenn
perance workers of Walla Walla claim
their first step in the Christian crusade
for which they are now marshaling
their forces. The saloon element, on
the other hand, are equally determined
to fight the case to the last ditch.
They have been imposed upon, so they
say, to the extent where they now will
turn and fight for their rights. Thus the
war clouds gather and local oracles
prophecy a great reform war which will
sweep across the entire state.
For some time past, it has been
known that a movement was on foot to
prohibit pool selling as well as liquor
selling on the fair grounds, though no
movement was made in this direction
as each expected the other to start the
skirmish Prosecuting Attorney Rupp
recently admitted that such a move
ment was on foot, but stated that he
would not meddle in the matter until
proper complaints were made.
The space now being used by Mottet
as a bar is several feet the other side
of the city limits, or just outside the
jurisdiction of the city officials. 1t was
learned today that the board of coun-
ty commissioners are not according to
the state law, allowed to grant a liquor
license to aKy person or persons wish
ing to coduct a saloon or other liquor
dealing establishment within a mile of
the city limits To whom, then can
the person or persons so wishing to
sell intoxicating liquors apply to pro-
cure a license?
The complaint as sworn to by w. P.
Hershey charges Mottet with "unlaw-
fully and willfully selling malt, spiri-
tOus and other liquors known as
whisky and beer without having first
secured a license from the board of
county commissioners, or mayor and
council or judicial body of an lncor-
porated city, town or village, or any
proper authority or authorities of the

Troubles in Rose City,

PORTLAND, Ore. Oct. 15.-Al-
though her complaint for divorce was
filed only last Friday, Mrs. Ida Zelma
Hite has already won the legal title to
the freedom she sought. Orval Hite,
the defendant, contented himself with
general deLial of the charges of
cruelty she made, and the matter was
rushed to hearing without delay before
Judge O'Day in the circuit court
The Hites were married in Walla
Walla in November, 1903 and for some
time We're happy together.
Within the last IS months, however,
according to Mrs. Hite, her husband
became abusive. She says he called
her names not listed in polite vocab-
nlaries and falsely accused her of be-
ing too familiar with other men.
The Only remedy for this, thought
the unhappy wife, was a divorce and a

EXPOSED PLOT
OF k|DNAPPERS
Rucf and thinner were TO be
Rescued BY Friends

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 15.-The
grand jury heard of the plot to kidnap
Ruef and E. j. thinner at its last ses-
sion. The plot to secure control of
two important witnesses in the graft
prosecution is just leaking out to the
public. Two witnesses were to be cap
tured and taken to Stanislaus coun-
~ mountain fastess and held there
until valueless as witnesses.
7. Newsome, former deputy sheriff
of Stanislaus. exposed the plot. New
some was employed by the kidnap-
pers for two plots, one to kidnap Ruef.
and one to kidnap thinner. Newsome
was hired by detectives to secure a
secluded hut and provide provisions
and a man to take charge.
Many Witnesses have been sub
poaened from Stanislaus to appear
before the grand jury. Five men were
to assault Ruef's prison, secure the ex-
boss, carry him away in a motor car
and then to a launch, which was to
take him up the Sacramento river. At
a point for a landing teams in relays
were to be supplied to carry their VIC
tim to the mountain hut. Zimmer's alb
duction was planned the same as that
of Ruef's.

terday to push to completion the new
depot at the foot of Main street. Ma

being done.
Telegraph posts are being replaced
by ornamental lamp posts and the
wires are being laid underground A
concrete walk, 20 feet wide is to be laid
from the station to the street car
track and more than likely platform
will be built by the street car COM
pany for the use of passengers
The grounds around the station are
to be turned into parking and the
whole appearance of the place is to be
made as attractive as possible Myriads
of electric lights will illumine the sta
ton and the grounds
The building is in a fair way to be
completed in a few weeks and it is
thought passengers will soon be talk

CABIN BREAKS
TRACK RECORD
FIRST DAYS RACES DRAW BIG
CROWDS WHO SEE FINE
EXHIBITIONS.

Nearly two thousand people assem-
bled in and about the grand stand yes
terday afternoon to witLess the first
races of the season. Despite the fact
that but few harness races were
booked for the first day, the races as a
whole, were good, and from the tre-
mendous applause of the grand stand s
were highly appreciated.

Princess Elect cut up such pleasing
capers, was the first race announced.
The result of both heats were the same

Judge Brents. Vincomar, the winner of
both heats, was easily the favOrite. In
the second heat, Edgarelia put up a
gamey race and won a close second.
Electina winner of third money is
also a handsome colt and will undoubt-
edly make good during the coming two
years.
All the runLig races were good, and
certainly all that could be desired. The
field in the first race numbered thir-
teen. Five furlongs was the distance
and the ponies came through with sat-
isfactory ginger. Rubiana was playing

The second running race, and the
one which lowered the track record one

race of the day. Muskoday and Edurdo
were picked as winners, and Cabin, the
real winner, looked lige "no-go." Lit
