The Trials Of Women

The homes of this country are filled
with women whose trials utterly de-

the victims of female disorders and they
do not get relief, and they are forced to
drag through the weary years without
the hope of better days. All such should

PIT RELIGIOUS DUTY SECOND.
Stern Laws Of Business Come First
Says Austrian Court.

An interesting case at law, when
cehtered on the observance of an Oh"
Jewish custom, was decided in Vienna
recently. A merchant, says the Amefi-
can Israelite. discharged clerk on ac-
count of neglect of duty. Among the
charges against him was that he came
TO the store late in the morning be-
cause he attended service at the syna-
gogue in order to say kaddish-tue
prayer for the dead-for his father
The clerk argued that it was his privi-
lege and his duty to say the prayer Tor
his departed father, while the mer-
chant, who was also a religious man,
maintained that "if Moses had known
that man had to pay 5000 gulden
year rent he would have made diIer-
ent laws" The judge would not allow
such an argument, but decided in Ia
vor of the merchant, because the
daily attendance at the synagogue
could not be considered the right or
the clerk without the consent of the
employer"

II all came out in the County Court
before Judge Drake and jury just
low to make a fine, sparkling and alto
gethertobe-desired champagne. Mrs.
CATH Lang, an elderly woman. who
knew great deal about wines and
their making learned from experience
in her native Alsace, told just how it

The jury listened to her story in the
suit being brought against julius
Minck, of the firm of Minck & Co., to
whom she said she sold the secret, and
then awarded her the full amount of
her claim which was $1,000.
Mrs. Lang said she learned the Sc

she came to this country. But since
being here she had been engaged in a
restaurant and had no time to go into
wine making. So, knowing that the
firm of Minck of 1888 Beaver street,
Brooklyn, was large maker of min
eral waters and other beverages, she
went to see Mr.. Minck.
She testified that she had taken with
her all the ingredients to make guam
tity of the near" champagne and she
only stipulated that she be present to
superintend the first production for the
defendant of beverage that, she de-
clared to him, would deceive even the

this was denied by him, and then gave
him the recipe. He was 20 organize a

A TERRIBLE DEED
coy THROWS RED PEPPER IN
EYES OF AGED BRIDE.
PRANK OF CHARlVARl PARTY
Mrs. N. S. Vast of Bellevue Raises
Window to Greet the Crowd and
Has Face Filled With Pepper.

Fort Collins, Colo.--The town of
Bellevue, twelve miles northwest of
Fort Collins, is aroused to q fever heat
is the result of an attack made on the
aged bride of n. S. West. a pioneer of
that place, by a member of a charivari
party, and if the identity of the guilty
person is established he will be sum
lnarily dealt with. Red pepper was
dashed into the eyes of the woman. and
It is feared she will lose her sight
The affair is said to be the outcome
CT feud between residents of the dis
;rict over certain land lines, in which
West was involved. The son of mem
ber OF the rival faction is suspected.
No warrants have been sworn out
pending an investigation to definitely
establish the identity of the persons
responsible. West has not decided
whether or not to push the prosecu-
ton, but his friends are determined
that the guilty parties will be brought
20 justice even If it is necessary to
take the law into their own hands.
Mrs West war formerly Mrs. A. L.
Adams, her husband having died sew
cral years ago. She is fifty years old
and was married to West, who is fifty
three, Saturday night. She is his third
wife.
Last night about S o'clock. as the
couple was about to retire. the chari-
vari party began the serenade. Little
attention was paid to them until fail
ing to get any response to their noises,
they became boisterous and began to
throuw rocks through the windows.
West requested the boys to leave the
premises, but he was jeered and
hooted until forced to so back into the
house. The throwing of rocks against
the house continued until nearly every
window light was broken. West then
attempted to talk to the youths, but his
voice was drowned by the noise.
Mrs. West leaned through one OF
the broken windows and attempted to
advise the lads. She had spoken but
a few words when one of the number
ran up and threw the pepper into her
face. Her eyes were filled with the
burning substance and so eXcruciating
was the pain that she almost com
pletely collapsed.
A physician was hurriedly sum-
moned and spent the entire night in an
effort TO relieve the pain. She is still
suffering intensely and the doctors are
unable TO say whether or not her sight
can be saved. In the dark, Mrs. West
was unable to see the lad who threw
the pepper, but there is strong suspi-
cion against a prominent young man

MANY SENT TO PENlTENTIARY.
Denver Courts of Justice Sentence a
Half Dozen Convicts.

Denver-Harold McKnaw-Seven to
eight years in the penitentiary.
William Gilmer-Five to six years
in the penitentiary.
Clyde Cassidente-Five to six years
in the penitentiary.
Alton E. Hoffses-Six to seven years
in the penitentiary.
Dominic Meskew-Convicted of vol
untary manslaughter.
Judge Shattuck bitterly arraigned
Harold McKnaw previous to sentenc-
ing him. McKnaw had protested his
innocence, and the judge said:
Harold McKnaw, | am sorry that
you beat out the brains of that jew
with coupling pin, and then tell such
a story. You thought to put the blame
on another boy weaker than yourself.
| was in hope that you would become
penitent and tell the truth, but l see
that you prefer TO go to the peniten-
tiary with that lie on your lips"
Judge Garrigue of Greeley imposed
the sentence on Cassidente, who wept
and pleaded to have it changed to the
state reformatory. He was convicted
of assault on -yearold Lottie
Rode.
Hoffses, who shot and killed James
Thornton, received his sentence with
immobile countenance.
The attorneys for James Ryan, who
shot and killed Percy Smith and was
found guilty of murder in the first de-
gree, will file a motion Monday for a
new trial.
Harold McKnaw and William Gill
mer killed Teve Bokser and Max
Weissblei, two West Colfax Jews, in a
quarrel which took place at the edge
of the city, on the Denver & inter
mountain railway, several months ago.
Alton e. Hoffses, who killed James
Thornton last October has long been
a familiar character among the gam
bling fraternity. The men quarreled
over money matters, Hoffses accusing
Thornton of being responsible for the
fact that he (Hoffses) could no longer
borrow what he desired from the gam
bling kings, by whom he had long been
employed.
Dominic Meskew, the convicted
slayer of Pegleg Perry, is a saloon man
who has conducted a notorious place
in the Tenderloin for many years.
Cassidente, convicted of assault on
Lottie Rode, was at one time a we'll
known figure among the Italian poll
ticians, but his influence had been
waning of late years.

Settling up Eastern Colorado.

Gasoline motor service will be es.
tablished on the Union Paciiic's Kan
sas line. between Denver and Huge,
within ten days or two weeks.
AT first only one combination car
will be placed in service, making the
distance of 1O5 miles to Hugo in less
than four hours, the running time be-
ing about thirty miles an hour. The
object is TO supplement the regular
passenger train service because of the
great demands made by the dry farm
ing section. which is rapidly filling up.
Less than two years ago interurban
traffic from Denver to the east line OF
the state was not even thought of, that
section being practically wilderness
devoted to great cattle ranches, with
here and there a small farm in the
valleys.
In the last two months the Union
Pacific has handled ninety-iive car
loads of household furniture for points
between here and Hugo, almost ex-
clusively for settlers on small tracts
that have been taken up under the
Campbell soil culture system.
The officials of the road are author
ity for the statement that no less than
500 homesseaders have gone in within
the last few months in addition to hun
dreds who bought decided lands and
settled upon them 1t is for the ac-
commodatiou of this large added pOpu-
lation that more passenger service is
required and the Union Pacific deter.
mined upon the scheme 10 augment
established trains by putting in motor
cars.

ANDREW JOHNSON MUST HANG
Murderer of Night Marshal Frisbie
at Lamar Convicted.

Lamar. Colo.-To be hanged by the
neck until dead is the fate of Andrew
Johnson. convicted of the murder of
Night Marshal j. II. Frisbie at Lamar.
The jury filed into the court room and
announced that "A verdict had been
agreed on. The defendant, cool and
indifferent. sat by his counsel and eyed
the jury closely as the members an
swered to the call of their names.
When the clerk read the verdict
handed in by Foreman Il. p. Thurston
I'VE, the jury, find the defendant
guilty of murder in the first de-
gree, and fix the penalty at DEATH
Johnson's swarthy face paled slightly
but he gave no other evidence of feel
ing. After Judge Thorne, his counsel,
had moved for rehearing. Judge Hun
ter ordered the prisoner to stand up.
and asked him if he had anything to
say. Nothing at ALL was the response
of Johnson.
Judge Hunter then passed sentence
on Johnson, ordering that he be
hanged during the week beginning Au-
gust goth. At the conclusion of the
judges words Johnson said: THANK
YOU" and sat down, the coolest man
in the entire court room. Judge Hun
ter court officials and the spectators,
were deeply moved by the proceed
ings, but Johnson's eyes remained
dry. A few moments later the pris,
oner was laughing and joking with the
deputies who had him in charge.
The jury was unit in pronouncing
Johnson guilty and the only difference
that arose in their deliberations was
regarding the punishment to be fixed.

Lynch left tonight for Canon City to

Two new railroad lines have been
opened into tho Congo Free State in
Africa. One ruAg from Stanley Falls,
where the River Congo ceases to be
navigable, in an easterly direction to
Mahagi, on the Albert sea, distance
of 1,120 kilometers (kilometer, O.62
mile). and the other route starts from
Stanleyville, the ,ity by the falls. and
running from north to south, partly by
boats on the navigable portions of the
upper Congo and partly by railway
for such portions of the stream as are
not navigable, ultimately is bound for
the district of Katanga, in the ex-
IRENE southern portion of the Free
State where there are great copper
and gold fields. OF this latter line the
road was opened last autumn from
Stanleyville to Ponthierville and is
now in operation for a distance of 127
kilometers.

Woke Up a Bad Man,

La Junta, Colo.-Crazed by losing
money as a result of the San Fran
cisco fire and earthquake. Harry Han
men, former owner of a five-and-ten-
cent store in the coast city, fired five
shots at Santa Fe Night Watchman
Boyd at the depot in this city, after
the officer asked him to show his
ticket. Boyds clothing was torn by
the bullets and one shot grazed his
temple, inflicting slight wound.
The merchant had arrived from the
coast en- route to Coolidge, Kansas.
He was scantily dressed as the result
of wandering about the streets of Cali
fornia towns. The train he was to
have taken for the East was late, and
the man, who is seventy-one years old
being unable to pay for a room. was
sleeping in the depot waiting room
The watchman, thinking he was a
tramp, asked him for his ticket. The
old mans face flushed, and he reached
into his back pocket. Pulling out a
pressing the trigger, said:
I'll give you all the ticket you
want" The first shot missed fire. The
madman emptied the remaining five
shots at the watchman, all the while
using profanity. Boyd started back
ward and succeeded in reaching the
door by the time the pistol was emp
tied. Boyd arrested the aged mer-
chant, who was this morning tried on
the charge of carrying concealed weap-
one and sentenced to twelve days in
Jail. Boyd will swear to complaint
charging Hannen with attempted muir
der. The old man refuses to give out
any information that would lead to
the knowledge of his relatives or
home.

True Western Friendship.

Cripple Creek, Colo.-The body OF
Eben Green, who was killed in an ac-
cident in the Ophir mine, was buried in
Mount Pisgah cemetery, and Frank
Sheafor, brother of District Judge
Sheafor, in an odd way paid his re-
spects to the dead. Sheafor hired and
drove the hearse. and just as the re-
mains were about to be lowered into
the grave he stood over the casket and
said: "Old boy, we were friends for
many years, and this is the last thing
| can do for you. Goodbye, good bye"
Not desiring to see earth thrown over
the cold form of his friend, Sheafor
quickly left the grave, mounted the
box of the hearse and drove
back to town Sheafor and
Green became staunch friends
in Pitltin county fourteen years ago.
Acquaintances of the deceased from
Pitkin county were the pallbearers.
