When you think of Indigestion think
of Kodol, for it is without doubt the
only preparation that completely digests
all classes of food. And that is what
you need when you have indigestion or
stomach trouble-something that will
act promptly but thoroughly some-
thing that will get right at the trouble
and do the very work itself for the
stomach by digesling the food that you
cat and that is Kodol. 1t is pleasant to

BROKEN HEART
KILLS old man

c. c. Butler of Gold Hill died Sat
urday evening practically of broken
heart.
His wife, Elizabeth, died about a
week ago of pneumonia. and grief
induced by her loss brought him to
such a low ebb that he fell an easy
prey to an attack of pneumonia
which seized upon him almost imme-
diately after the funeral.
C. C. Butler was pioneer of the
Comstock, and had resided in Gold
Hill for great many years. His late
daughter, Nella, was at one time a
student at the university here, and
afterwards married son of Chief
Justice Mcdowell of the Supreme
Court of Utah.
His nephew, George N. Noel, has

MUCH GOLD IN PHILIPPINES.

A. Heise, who has large mining
interests in the Philippines, was a
passenger on the Hongkong Maru,
which arrived from the Orient yester-
day. Speaking of the industry in the
islands, Heise said it was remarkable
that the Spaniards had never discov-
cred what wealthy gold deposits lay
within easy distance of their settle
ments. At Binguet, Camerines and
Masbate, on the Island of LuZon, en-
tirely new gold-bearing reefs had
been opened up which gave promise
of extreme richness. At Masbate, A
Pittsburg company has a ten-stamp
mill at work on high grade ore, but
most of the other mines are controll-
ed by New Zealand. Australian, Ger
man and French capital. A New Zea-
land dredging plant at Camarines
was taking out sand which went 81
cents per yard when Heise left. He
regards it as pitiful that SO little AM
erican capital has been put into an
industry which shows such promise
in the islands, while foreigners are
showing much more enterprises.

the frontier of individuals, traffic
and merchandise. Immediately after
the Council of State had concluded
its session, Premier Maura left for
Seville by special train for consult
alton with King Alfonso.
The Spanish press, while express
ing sorrow and Indignation at the
assassinations, makes various COM
ments on the political aspect of the
murders. The Liberal says they prob
ably were provoked by the negligence
of the Portugal government adding:
1--WE can only suppose that Premier
Franco, the moral author of the hor-
rors, if not yet dead from remorse,
has already retired from public life. :"
The Liberal welcomes rumors that
the Spanish Ministry of War will
send troops to the Portuguese from
tier, in readiness for any eventual
ity.

Steps TO Protect Kinq Alfonso.

MADRID, Feb. 1.-The assassina-
ton Saturday of King Carlos and
Grown Prince Luis Philippe has ere
ated general sorrow in Spain. but at
the same time it has awakened the
fears that once obtained that re-
fcurrence of anarchist deeds is not
improbable in this monarchy, where
the propaganda of the anarchists al
ready has secured for them a strong
foothold Especially in Barcelona,
where the anarchists and revolution
lists are notably powerful, did the
news of the assassination cause great
excitement.
1t is understood that for a long
time there has been active communi-
cation between the radical revolu-
tionists of Portugal and Spain, hav-

psychological momens These facts
induced the government today to
take firm grip on the Spanish sit

CONES TO LIFE
IN PENNSYLVANIA
MUST HAVE BEEN In A TRANCE
WHILE SOJOURNING IN
TONOPAH.

The Smith family has been getting
gay with Tonopah. wonder of the
family who calls himself Bart Smyth,
has been writing to that dear old
town of York, which is hidden some
where in the Businesses of Pennsyl-
vania We don't know Bart Smith,
but are fortunate in knowing his
name, SO that we can call it to him.
Unless perchance there be any mis-
conception as to the identity of Bert
Smith, our banker. being mixed up
in the correspondence, we hasten to
affirm that he has already made the
proper denials. Here is what the fell
low Smith has to say about US
FORMER Workers. IMPRESSION
OF TONOPAH, NEVADA'S
GOLD-MINING TOWN.
Bart Smith, former Yorker, but
who is now living in the gold mining
town of Tonopah, Nevada, does not
have high regard for the morals of
this town, which is famous for its
whiskey, prize fights and gambling
not to mention the struggle for the
yellow metal. In a letter to friend,
Mr.. Smith gives his impression of
Tonopah. thuswise:
This modern Sodom is the largest
recruiting station Old Nick has in the
West. A stranger entering it al
night is surprised at the number OF
red lights hanging in front of differ
ent houses The lights are signals
marking the abodes of fallen women.
How Satan must smile as he looks uu
here with his X-ray eyes.
AT the end of Prospect avenue
there is row of lawyers offices. II
is called The Devils Row The
building containing the offices of the
mining promoters is named the
Liars Palace. But the most damn
able places of all are the dance halls

it would be in any town where most
of the people thought and struggled
only for gold. With most of the
buildings on the main streets, saloons
and gambling dens, one is not sur
prised. 1t is more wicked city than
San Francisco was before the earth.

with dreadful calamity. Some oil

the creator of universe belongs the
power to control it.
Another sad sight is the size oil
the cemetery. 1t makes a stranger
think Tonopah is an old town. Thus
far few bodies of women and children
lie in the city of the dead, but | have
seen as high as fifteen men buried
here in one day If the cause Of
death had been placed on each tomb
stone, eighty per cent would read
'Tonopah whiskey.' One drink of il
is enough to make a fellow see four
rattlesnakes When men enter a sa
loon here to drink. they say: Give
us some barbed wire. They surely

The D~oodlebug.

Tom Collins tells an interesting
story about the doodlebug, and how
he used to sing a doodlebug song
when a boy over the round perpen-
dicular hole of the handsome green
winged specimen and when the bug
heard Toms musical dOodlebug it
would climb to the top of the hole
and listen to the harmony. Last
Saturday Tom discovered a doodle
bug hole close to his cement walk
and down on his knees he dropped in
a hurry. He began singing his boy
hood song of "doodle, doodle, DOODLE"
and when in this position with head
down close to the hole singing his doc
die song, a lady came along and passed
Tom in a hurry with silent step and
when she got to the Catholic Church
corner she stopped, looked around and
fastened her pace in evident fright.
"Blamed If l don't think she took me
for a fit subject for Judge Gifford's
Indian home," said Tom. This was
on Saturday.
As the writer was returning from
the post Office Sunday at 2:30 we no.
ticed Tom down on his knees and in
dulcet tones was singing doodle, doc
die, DOODLE" with Manual Herman
intently watching the little round
hn1e. We endured the whyness for
the strangeness of Toms action while
Manual walked away laughing, and
between laughs, he was protesting
that he was no guy. The Leaderman
was interested in Toms story and
watched the little round hole as Tom
sung his bug song. Postmaster and
Mrs. Smith came along just as Tom
was singing sweetly and to prove
Toms faith and power of song the
bug came up to the top Of the hole
and listened rubbing its ears, if 1T
had any where they ought to be, and
then went down into its deep hole.
Tom kept on singing and the bug was
amused for it came up again looked
around and fleW away. 1t was a hand
some insect nearly the size of a honey
bee. 1t was no wonder that the wo-
man, was frightened Saturday. A
man on his knees, head close to the
ground, singing doodle, doodle, would
