Pawhuska, l. T., June.-Col. c. C.. Shepperd, inspector for the Interior Department will not be a member of the Indian Osage Allotting Commis- sion after July 1. It is understood that Dr. E. c. McChesney will become chairman of the commission. On charges of extravaganza in allottlng the Indians an investigation of the com mission was recently made by Maj. James Mclaughlin of Secretary Gar fields inspecting forces. The charg- es were filed by Emery K. Gibson, an Osage Indian. Gibson alleged that the commission for the Osa2es had eX- pended S60,000 of the tribal funds by April 1 of the present year, whereas the whole cost of allotting the Raw
 Indians several years ago amounted to but $2,O00. Maj Mclaughlin only recently completed his investigation,

NERVOUS COLLAPSE
IS OFTEN PREVENTED BY pR.
 WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
Taken Whsasae E,<st Warning syms- toms Are Noticed Much Needless
 Suffering May Be Saved.

Are you troubled with pallor, loss of spirits, waves of heat passing over the body, shortness of breath after slight exertion, peculiar skipping of the heart beat, poor digestion, cold extremi- ties or 8 feeling of weight and fullness? Do not make the mistake of thinking that these are diseases in themselves and be satisfied with temporary relief.
 This is the way the nerves give warn. ing that they are breaking down. It simply means that the blood has become impure and cannot carry enough nourish- ment to the nerves to keep them healthy and able to do their work.
 Rest, alone, will sometimes give the needed relief. The tonic treatment by Dr. Williams Pink Pills, however, pre-. vents the final breakdown of the nerves and the more serious diseases which follow, because the pills act directly upon the impure blood, making it rich, red and pure.
 Mrs. B. o. Bradley, of 1o3 Parsells avenue, Rochester, N. Y., says:
 "I was never very healthy and some years ago, when in 8 rundown condi- tion, l suffered nervous shock, caused by misfortune to friend. It was so great that was unfitted for work.
 ''I was just weak, low spirited and nervous. could hardly walk and could not bear the least noise. My appetite was poor and I did not care for food. couldn't sleep well and once for two weeks got scarcely an hours sleep. had severe headaches most of the time and pains in the back and spine.
 ''I was treated by two doctors, being under the care of one of them for six months. got no relief and then de- cided to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills. soon began to feel better and the im- provement was general. My appetite became hearty and my sleep better. The headaches all left and also the pains in my back. A few more boxes entirely cured me and was able to go back to work. I felt splendid and as though I had never been sick''
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable in such diseases as rheumatism, after effects of the grip and fevers, neuralgia, St. Vitus' dance and even partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.5o, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

MAY NEED SOLDIERS
Gov. Blanchard Notifies Louisiana State Guard to Prepare for Ser
 vice.

New Orleans, June.-The state mi iltia was notified Monday by Governor Blanchard to hold itself in instant readiness to protect the Italians ar rested in the Lamana Kidnapping case. This order was issued because the prisoners will probably be transfer red in a few days from the New Or leans parish prison, where they are considered safe, to St Charles parish, where the boy was killed, and where the trials must be held. This parish is an entirely rural community with small police protection, and within such a short distance of New Orleans that mobs from this city could reach there in two hours. It is also expect ed that escorts will be needed if the police arrest any of the four Italians still at large who are charged with the murder by those now under arrest.
 Although in the city the excite ment has entirely subsided, yet the temper of the crowds was shown when about 100 men formed and made threats at the United States custom house against an Italian, whose name closely resembled that of one of the murderer suspects, and who was being quizzed by police officer
 Up to Monday night 15 prisoners have been placed in the Orleans par ish, three of them women. The state will attempt to charge conspiracy in the murder against about half of those under arrest and the murder itself against one of them. During the day two prisoners whose safety was fear ed for in neighboring parish jail were brought to New Orleans, where all the suspected Italians are separat' ed from any hostile crowds which might gather by five gates of two-inch steel bars, and also by a protecting wall
 In addition to his order to the state militia Governor Blanchard took steps to have a special session of court in St Charles parish to try the combln- ed Kidnapping and murder charges.

Mysterious Death Near Godfrey

Coroner l.. z. Evans was called to
Godfrey, a station in the northeast part
OF the county on the Union Pacific rail
way, Friday to investigate sudden
death on the railroad tracks and found
the body OF man who apparently died
while asleep. There were no marks Of
violence or evidence OF struggle OF any
kind. The man was stranger who had
been seen about two hours before he
died, when he stopped at Agete, pur-
chased lunch, then took the railway
truck and walked toward the east. He
was next seen lying by the track by the
crew Of a freight train, who reported the
fact TO the postmaster at Agate.
The dead man was about five feet sew
en- inches high, black hair, brown eyes,
dark complexion and weighed about $50
pounds. He wore soft black hat and
a dark blue suit, all in good condition.
He had but i've cents in his pocket, but
there were no indications that he had
been robbed
No marks of Identification were found
on his clothing or in his pockets, but
several cards bearing addresses were
found. Some of the parties named on
the cards live in Boulder and some in
Denver. The coroner communicated
with them but has received no replies.

Every Man His Own Doctor.

The average man cannot afford to en-
ploy physician for every slight ailment
or injury that may occur in his family,
nor can he afford to neglect them, as so
slight an injury as the scratch of pin
has been known to cause the loss of a
limb. Hence every man must from ne
cessity be his own doctor for this class
Of ailments. Success often depends upon
prompt treatment, which can only be
had when suitable medicines are kept at
hand. Chamberlain's Remedies have
been in the market for many years and
enjoy good reputation.

arrhoea Remedy for bowel complaints.

coughs, colds, croop and whooping cough.
