PROTECTOR OF WOMEN


Gerardo Nunez is another bold ban
cit leader who was recently captured
and shot He and his band recently at
tackled the ranch Of Jesus Uranga
Saenz at La Estancia Blanca, situated
within fifty miles of Durango. They
took Saenz and all OF his servants
prisoners and bound them with ropes.
They then ransacked the building and
robbed the place of $1,000 In money and
valuables. Although Nunez had been
captured and shot, it is said that his
followers have selected a new chief
and are operating as bodily as ever.
A short time ago a band og brigands.
led by Jose Serna, made an attack upon
a ranch near Tamazula, situated near
the border line Of Durango and Sin
aloa. They murdered Tomas Borego,
manager of the place, and several Of
his servants. took all the valuables
and drove of several hundred head of
livestock The animals were recovered
afterward by a. force of rurales, but
the bandits made their escape. Serna
is said TO have been at one time
prominent in business circles in Mazat-
Ian. He was crossed in a love affair
with a beautiful young lady of the
place and disposed OF his business and
took refuge in the mo untains, where
he surrounded himself with a desperate
gang OF cutthroats and became pro-
fessfonal bandit chief. II is reported
that this band has a large cave stored
fun OF the spoils taken in its numer-
Gus raids.
Juan Longorio is az the head Of a
band OF brigands that has been oper-
ating in the Cosala district, State of
Sinaloa. for two or three years. II
has raided many ranches and small VIII
lagos and robbed large numbers Of
unprotected travellers. Longoria has
always showed the greatest courtesy
and tenderness toward women. He
does not hesitate to take the life OF a
man II resistance is offered 10 his at
tacks, but under no circumstances will
he permit any woman TO be harmed.
Instances are told of his visiting the
home OF poor widows at Cosala and
placing In their hands money and sup
plies OF food which he had probably
stolen from some neighboring ranch.
It is on account of these acts of char
ity and his kind consideration shown
the women OF that section that he is
not hated as are the other bandits in
Western Mexico. The rurales have
been ostensibly after Longorio and his
band for several months, but ii is whis-
pered that the effort TO capture the
brigand chief is not as real as il
might be-

DOCTOR IS KILLED
ACT OF INSANE JEALOUSY OF wo-
 Man.
Shot Physician She Loved And Turned Revolver On Herseif--Neixhbers Had To Force Entrance
 To Room.

Kansas City, Feb. s.--Dr. Everett M. Merwin. prominent physician and sur- geon of this city. who had spent sev- eral years on British steamships as a surgeon, and Miss Maud Slater, aged twenty-three years, a patient of the doctor. were found dead in Merwin's s office in the Hall building today end evidence points to the theory thta the girl shot the physician and then conn mitted suicide as the result of an h- sane jealousy. -
 The doctor was shot through the head and a pistol was found near the extended right hand of the girl. The doors of the offlce were locked and neighboring tenants of the building who heard the sound of shots in Dr. Mervin's office were obliged to force an entrance to his apartments.
 The aged parents of the girl when they were notified of the death of their daughter several hours after the tragedy had occurred said that she was a patient of Dr. Merwin. and that she had announced before she left home today that she intended to go to the doctors office for treatment.
 They knew nothing of any other re- lation than that of physician and pa tient existed between their daughter

AT POINT OF PISTOL
RAPHAEL sEMMEs, JR.. CAPTURES
 NEGRO ON PORCH.
Aroused by s0mnd of Foot steps, Young Man Pr0curca Weapon and Covers
 Intruder at Front Door,

The presence of mind of Raphael semmes. IT,. resulted in the capture early thIs morning of supposed negro burglar at the semmes residence. II warren's Court at 1925 o'clock. Mir. Semmes held the intruder at the point of a pistol until the police arrived and took charge of the negro. The prs oner gave his name as Lee Cheny.
 Mir. semmes had just reached his hon.- sN< was reading in sitting room or the residence when he heard some one open the gate of an alley adjacent to the house. Then faint sound of footsteps was heard, and MT Semmes's dog became restless. The young man hastened to an upstairs bedroom and secured his pistol. Short Iy after returning to the sitting room he advanced toward the front door preceded by the dog.
 The animal jumped forward toward the entrance, and. at that instant. MT. Semmes grasped the knob and threw the door open to find big negro with his hand in position to grasp the knob. The young man immediately covered the negro with his weapon and held him at bay until other members of the household could be aroused and the police telephoned for. Mounted ofi- CerS muTrBik qua EdTtln ndStcHcu to the residence and brought Cheney to the station.
 Z Cheney appeared to have been drink ing, but did not seem sufficiently un- der the influence of liquor not to know what he was doing. He evaded an- swering questions put to him by the police, and was placed in cell.
 It was learned later Cheney had been in Montgomery but a few months. having come from Pike County. He Is working as laborer for the Mont- gomery Traction Company. He Is about 25 years old.
 Not having entered the residence, 1t is said no charge of burglary can be brought against him. He was impris- oned as a suspect. and It Is thought warrant charging trespass will be sworn out against him today.
 The police ascertained the negro re- sides on Stone Street. between Cleve- land Avenue and Amanda Street. and at an early hour this morning officers were sent to search the house.

SENATOR FRANK :. MOODY.

This is State seantor Frank s, Moody who has forgotten more about the temperance and dispensary ques- tion than most Senators will ever learn. He talked on the State dis pensary law for an hour and half and had not told half what he knew of 1t when, he quit for fear his rel low Senators would become tired.
 Senator Moody has been fighting Tor atemperate temperance" for the past fen years. He does not believe Ala hama is -ipe for prohibition. He does mt believe public sentiment Is at tnis time educated up to that point. He believes if prohibition should De es- tablished. the law would be fragrant ly violated, and in many communities the violation would be winked at. :.
 But he is an active enemy Of the open saloon He thinks the open sa- loon one of the greatest evils, 1T not the greatest evil of today in Alabama. "A . :. The more attractive saloon Is, the more deadly it. Is, in the opinion of Senator Moody.
 Senator Moody is not a blind follow CT of the Governor. His people gave him no instructions to follow the Gov ernor. and when he takes position on any question it. Is his position, and nobody's else As result he is fre- uuentiy out of touch with the matori- ty of the Senate, butt that gives him no concern. and 1t makes his remarks no less interesting to his colleagues. Majority and minority look alike to him, when 1t becomes question or principle.

HIDDEN DANGER S.

Uric acid Is q deadly poison that is produced in the human body, and 1t is the duty of the kidneys to collect this roison from the blood. and 10 pass 1t safely out of the system, together with all waste water.
 It Is the presence iu the body of an Sxcess of uric acid that causes so much pain and suffering. and so many Of the. aches that are commonly at. dributed to rheumatism.
 The kidneys are bean-shaped organs, composed of masses of little tubes. all of which pour their seorstions into a main channel that leads to the biad- der. Tn this way the kidneys pass eff more than an ounce of poison every day when In health.
 But 1t does not take much to set the kidneys back. and when they get behind, they can not right themselves without help. The uric acid begins t. clog the kidneys, causing that dull. heavy aching in the back and sharp twingos when stooping or lifting. It krystalizes In the muscles and joints and every turn or twist brings keensst torture. It attacks the nerves with neuralgia and Sciatica. It brings h%Ac Nohe diEsiness. lanEuor and disorders bf the urine. ..

This Is Senator F. L.. Biackmon, who tprotests. Anypody who has read anything about the proceedings of the Alabama Senate has come to the conclusion that Senator Biackmon Is in the minority. As fact, he is, but 1t has not yet ruffied his equanim- ity Even when he has arisen and de- livered a genteel. but none the less effective roast of the majority, which has performed" on him ever since the session began he doer it in all good nature, and even those who are the subjects of his shaft of wit laugh with him.
 Mir. Conner did not want Mir. Black mon to come to the Senate. He told the people of Calhoun county that. But Mir. Blackmon Is known in his native county, and. even the Conner wave could not keep him out of the Senate. Senator Blackmon owes nothing to the Conner faction in Ala bama politics except personal majority in the Senate understand 1t [. The majority is inclined to be little watchful of the Calhoun Senator. 1t looks like the majority Is always afraid the Anniston man Is going to trip 1t up. It is an open secret that the word was sent out in the session, Look out for Blackmon; he is smart as the dickens"
 of the Senate. The Conner wave left him without an obligation. He tits at everything he doesn't like. and a message from the Governors office cuts no more ice with him than a word careless1y spoken in the lobby.
