THINKS THORNLEY, WAS
KILLED FOR REVENGE

TACOMA, Jan. 29.-Stimulated by
the $1,000 reward offered by the county
and the state for the apprehension of
the murderers of A. w. Thornley,,
Mexican vice consul, who was killed
last week, detectives here are making
a hard hunt for the thugs. F. c. War
mex. employed on the water front,
found a revolver in pile of lumber
near the spot where Thornley, was
shot down. which the police believe is
the weapon that killed Thornley, 1t
is a 3S-caliber Smith & Wesson, and
all the chambers were empty.
The revolver had been simply SHOW
ed partly underneath and into the lum-
Der pile. and from its position the de-
tectives feel confident that the man
that Shot Thornley,, in the panic of
fear at what he had done, took this
means to get rid of the weapon, which
If he had been arrested, might have
convicted him of the murder.
Prosecuting Attorney Rowland saws
Thornley, was the victim of revenge.
He has learned of several incidents in
Thornely's life in which he made en-
emies, and with his deputies Mr.. Row
land is looking among these enemies
OF Thornely for the murderer.

MANY HERE HAVE
THE RHEUMATISM
DREAD DISEASE HAS VICTIMS
HERE WHO CAN FIND QUICK
eRELIEF IN THIS.
Don't Cost Much and Relieves Rheu-
matism by Making the Kidneys
Take Out Poisons and Waste.

Thousands of men and women who
have felt the sting and torture of this
dead disease, which is no respecter
of age, persons, sex. color Or rank, will
be interested to know that while for
many years rheumatism was consid-
cred an incurable disease, now it is
one OF the easiest affections of the
human body to conquer. Medical
science has proven it not distinct
disease in itself, but a symptom caused
by inactive kidneys. Rheumatism is
uric acid in the blood an dother waste
products of the system which should
be filtered and strained out in the
form of urine The function of the kid
neys is to sift these poisons and acids
out and keep the blood clean and pure.
The kidneys, however, are of sponge
like substances, the holes or pores Of
which will sometimes either from over
work, cold or exposure become clogged
and inactive, and failing in their func-
ton of eliminating these poisons from
the blood, they remain in the veins, de-
compose and settling about the joints
and muscles, cause the untold suffering
and pain of rheumatism and backache,
often producing complications of blad-
der and urinary disease, weakness, etc.
The following simple prescription is
said to relieve the worst cases of
rheumatism because of it's direct &C.
ton upon the blood and kidneys, re-
lievng, too, the most severe forms
of bladder and urinary troubles: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking we'll in bot
tie and take in teaspoonful doses, after
each meal and at bedtime. The ingre-
dents can be had from any good pre-
scription pharmacy, and are absolute
ly harmless and safe to use at any
time.
