WAS DIPLOMAT SLAIN by GIRL /?
Sudden Death by Poisoning of Rus
sian Ambassador to Italy.

EomeI Dec. S.-DeSpite the de-
ravief, the Russian ambassador to
Italy, was poisoned following his
visit upon n mysterious young wo-
man, at the Hotel Splendid, his sud
den and strange death has caused
great activity among the police OF
the Italian government and the Sc
cret agents Of the Russian govern
ment in Italy.
The sons of the count are hurry
ing to Rome, summoned by telegraph
immediately after his death. The
Russian ambassador yesterday called
at the Hotel Splendid apparently by
appointment. He sought out the
apartment OF handsome young wo-
man who had been residing in a lux
urious suite in the hotel for some
time. The woman was known by
the management Of the hotel as Mrs.
Ferre.
Immediately after the return of
the count to his own quarters he was
stricken with the most violent pains.
In few hours he had expired with
out uttering a single word to throw
any light upon the strange occur
renee. A physician examined the
remains and issued a statement to
the press declaring that 10 trace
of poison had been found. A post
mortem examination will likely be
held later.
Count Mouravieff did much to ce-
ment the. friendship between Italy
ala ltu ssia and his death is univer-
sally lamented to-day throughout
Europe.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood. They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about 500
grains Of impure matter daily, when
unhealthy some part Of this impure
matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symp-
toms-pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheuma-
tism, gout, gravel, disorders Of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness,
irregular heart, debility, drowsiness,
dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But
If you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your kidneys.

constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.

constitutional disease, and, therefore,
requires constitutional treatment

the American aeroplanist, made a
most remarkable flight to-day. In
stead of rising gradually, the ma
chine shot up like a rocket to a
height Of 240 feet. The aeronaut
then permitted it to drop about so
feet, at which altitude he stopped
the engine. The machine glided
down smoothly and gracefully, land
ing about three-quarters of a mile
from the starting point.

UNFAIR LIST ENJoINED.
Supreme Courts Holds That in Eject
1t Is Boycott.

Chicago, Feb 21.-The Illinois su-
preme court at Springfield has decided
that labor unions unfair list is in
effect a boycott and could be enjoined.
The case was brought by John e.
and John T. Wilson, livery and dray-
men of Sparta, Ill, and owners of the
Sparta auditorium. The suit was
brought by these two men against Roy
Hay and other union labor men of
Sparta.
The Wilson's were hauling brick for
a school house in 1900. The local OF
Team Drivers International union or
dered another driver put to work. The
Wilson's appealed to President C. P.
Shea, but he refused to interfere. Then
a notice was printed that the Wilson's
were on the unfair list.
Again in 1904 the Wilson's were work
ing on a church building and could not
get sufficient union help. They were
permitted to employ nonunion men un-
der an agreement that they would pay
union dues for the men and dispute
arose as to how much was due.
The amount in controversy was only
81, but it resulted In the Wilson's being
put on the unfair list again. Then the
school board of Sparta wanted to give a
course of lectures in the auditorium
and quickly was ordered by the union
not to hire that hall. The ban later
was raised at the request of the super
intendent of schools.
However, the local undertaken was
told not to use the Wilson's teams in
hauling his hearse. The Wilson's then
secured an injunction. which Is now
