The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1908-05-15


The same possibilities of sin are be-
fore all men. Still, every day, oul
Lord is denied and betrayed.
When we have sinned and repented,
let us not seek to bury our shame
and sorrow in forgetfulness, but let
us remember our fall, that we may
avoid a second fall, and thus be crate.
full to Christ for saving us and for
giving us.
Our safety lies in watching the little
temptations. Judas began, perhaps,
by being mean about money, or by
taking a penny that did not belong to
him. Peter met the Roman soldiers
with drawn sword, but fell before the
question Of a servant-maid.
Even though man may part from
his conscience, it nevertheless does
aot part from him."-Tholuck.
1t is wise for each Of us to ask. as
the disciples asked when Christ said
that one Of them should betray him:
Lord, is Il II" No one is safe from
psril II he does not consider himself
Liable to Il.

The footprints Of Dyspepsia

The footprints Of Dyspepsia
have been directly traced to the
Stomach nerves. When these
"inside nerves. fail, indigestion
and stomach distress must surely
result. For this, druggists every

rative. First, these tiny inside
Stomach, Heart. and Kidney
nerves. Then gas belching,
Heart palpitation, or failing Kid
neys follow. Don't drug the
Stomach, or stimulate the Heart
or Kidneys. That is wrong.
Strengthen these failing nerves
with DR.. Shoop's Restorative. 1t
is the nerves, not the organs that
are calling for help. Within 48
hours after starting the Restora-
tive treatment, you will realize
the gain. A test will tell. Sold

She Rides at Night.

A young woman created some
excitement in Spencer a few
mornings since. Young women.
and good-looking ones at that, are
by no means an unusual sight in
Spencer. But about 8 O'Clock on
the morning in question the par
ticular one under consideration
rode into Spencer on a fne-look-
ing horse. She went in to tele-
phone booth and after engaging IN
a brief conversation with some
one, she mounted her horse and
rode away. She was approached
by one or two who thought she
might be in need of some assist
ance, but she needed nothing and
while answering their few ques-
tions civllly, she was not at all
communicative. She was armed
with couple Of dangerous-lookin ing
pistols which we're strapped to her
saddle. She did state that her
name was Miss M. L. Woodruff,
that she was fond of riding at
night and that she had ridden
from Kernersville the previous
midnight. Whoever she is and
watever her business, she had them
/ all guessing. She might say, how.
ever, and somewhat approproprl'
! ately: "What is it to you any.

SENATOR ALLISON DEAD.
Had Represented His State In Congress
and in the Senate for As Years.

Dubuque, Iowa, Aug. 4 Unit
ed States Senator W. B. Allison
died at his home in this city this
afternoon. The immediate cause
of his death was heart failure.
The end came as a result of Sc
rious sinking spell due to a pros
tatic enlargement complicated
with kidney diseases, and during
a period of unconsciousness which
had lasted since Saturday after
noon.
Two weeks ago the Senator left
his home in the city to escape the
hest. He went to the home Of
Mrs. Fannie Stout, a friend of the
family living on the Asbury road
few miles from town. For a few
days his condition seemed to i'm
prove, but he later began to grow
worse. Medical advisers urged
that an operation be performed to
rilieve the prostatic enlargement
which was bringing his condition
to crisis.
THE END SUDDEN.
Saturday morning the Senator
was brought back home. Soon
afterwards he relapsed into a con.
dition of semi-consciousness. Ex.
cept for brief periods of partial
recovery he remained in this con.
dition until death came this after.
noon.
News of she serious illness Of
the aged Senator was kept from
the public as much as possible un'
til his heath came as a surprise te
the thousands Of friends residing
in this city. Only the more in
innate friends of the family were
aware of his critical condition.

After The WARDEN.
Admits Resolving Large Fees for Trans
fering Convicts from one Camp to Another.

Jacob Moore, formerly chief
| warden of the State, whose official
acts have been severely criticised
during the present investigation
into the convict lease system, was
principal witness before the Legis-
lative investigating committee TO-
day. DR.. Handy, a large lessee
of convicts, who was on the stand
yesteaday, was again called today,
his testimony being along the
same lines as that previously giy-
en- by him.
Former Warden Moore stated
that he had often, while acting as
chief warden, arranged the trans
fer of conviots from a camp where
they were not needed TO another
camp where they wore desired, and
for this service had made at va
rious times $2,700. He said he
had acted under the advice of his
attorney and did not believe that
he had done wrong or failed in any
of his duties to the State. He
contended that in arranging the
transfer of 25 to SO men from
small camp to one already estab-
lished he saved the State from
81, 800 to So, ,0O0a year in salaries.
The witness took up the various
acts of cruelty and brutality which
other witnesses had charged he
knew about, and declared that his
actions in every case had been gov
erened by the evidence brought
out by witnesses of these affairs
when he made his official investi-
cations. He denied that he had
ever used a convict unjustly, or
that he had ever harmed or an
noyed a convict lessee to surrender
men working for him.-Atlanta,
Ca, dispatch.
