National Meeting at Buffalo Closes
Today.

Buffalo, N Y. Oct. 21--The closing
day of the National Woman's Suffrage
convention found the delegates pleased
with what they regard as one of the
most successful gatherings the associa-
ton has ever had. The delegates are
carrying home thousands of large pos
ters printed in heavy black type with
which to inaugurate a poster cam
paign." An effort will be made before
election day to place one or more of
these posters at every election booth
in the country or as close to them as
the law allows. The posters give the
names of states and foreign countries
in which women are entitled to cast a
ballot followed by the query: Are
women of this state less entitled to a
vote And the word ''Why?" in type
several inches high.
The report of the committee on ar
bitration was read by Mrs. Lucia Ames

TAYLOR TELLS STORY.
How Judge Rankin Died at Hands Of
Nighs Riders.

Tiptonville. Tenn. oct. 21.-Judge
Taylor. who had a marvellous escape
from night riders, has made the fol-
lowing statement concerning his eX-
periences:
Monday night last Captain Rankin
and I went to Reel Foot lake In re-
sponse to letter from Mr.. Carpen-
ter. of Union City. who wanted to lease
some timber lands. on our arrival at
the lake we went to the log house. or
Ward hotel. and early after supper re-
tired. Some time during. the night we
were aroused by some one knocking at
our door, and on opening the door a
mob of masked meR-were found stand
ing in the hall. We were ordered to
dress and as the leader Of the mob
said he wanted to talk to US. we put
on our clothes and accompanied the
men to the bank of the lake, some dis
lance from the hotel.
"The leader of the mob talked with
us. telling us we werr associating too
much with Judge Harris and were TAX
ing entirely too much interest in the
lake. He said that the course OF Hair
ris and the West Tennessee Land COM
pany in prohibiting. free fishing was
causing the starvation of women and
children, and that something had to be
done.
II never dreamed that the mob in
tended us any harm. but just then they
threw a rope about Captain Rankin
neck and swung him to limb. He
protested and said. Gentlemen. do not
kill me- and the reply of the mob was
a volley of so shots. A'r ,rffNJ VIZ
This was the first evidence of any
intention to harm us. and when the
firing began / jumped into bayou and
made for a sunken log. Behind this
j hid and the mob fired several hun
dred shots into the log. They evident

OF them say He's dead and let him
60, and with that they rode away.
II remained in the water until after
the mob was out of hearing and went to
an island in the lake where l remain

out and walked all night. coming up
to a house at 6 o'clock this morning"

IN A FOREST FIRE.
Pupils and Teacher Have an Awful
Experience.

Bay City, Mich, Oct. 21.-A special
to tho Tribune from Alpena, Mich,
says:
Among the. most thrilling expert
ences of survivors of the Pressure Isle
county forest fires was that OF Miss
Grace Barber, a school teacher. 10
years old, whose school in Krakow
township was In session when the
flames swept down upon the building
Thursday. A terrified farmer had
rushed into the building to give the
house caught fire.
The young teacher marshalled her
pupils in double row. the largest at
the head and ordered them to remain
in close order and not to break the
line. She then directed the leaders to
head for a plowedt fiel dnear by and

the blaze in the tops of the trees ate
it's way down. Soon animals began to
appear upon the edge of the field. and
during the night two bears made their
appearance. A fox came sinking in,
as did also a wildcat, rabbits. part
ridges But the animals kept away
from the children. not even the bears
offering hostile demonstrations. Miss
Barber kept her charges in the field
all Thursday night and in the morning
sent them home in groups, plotting the
smaller ones herself.

THE OLD AND THE NEW

The success. of modern methods is
perhaps more clearly defined in the
practice of medicine than in any other
line of human endeavor.
For instance: Years ago remedies of
various kinds were used in treating
consumption, and nine-tenths of the
patients died. Today little medicine is
prescribed and they recover. The doc
tors have learned that the best way to
combat most ills is by the indirect meth
cd of stimulating the body's natural
power OF resistance. Consumption IS
much easier to prevent than to cure.
Neglect of a common cold Is often. the
starting point of this dread disease.
At the first indication of a cold every
effort should be made to check it at
once. 1t Is claimed that a hall ounce
OF Virgin OIL of Pine compound pure,
mixed with two ounces of Glycerine
and FIVE ounces of tincture of Cinchona
compound. taken in teaspoonful doses
every four hours. Will break up cold
in twenty-four hours and. cure any
cough that is durable. Get the ingredi-
ents separately and mix them your
