NIGHT RIDERS SET
FIRE TO VILLAGES
Attempt to Destroy Two Towns
in South Dakota.

Aberdeen, s. D., Aug. 25.-Lowry
and Alaska, two new towns on the
Minneapolis and st. Louis road in
southern Walworth county, were par
TALLY destroyed by fire of incendiary
origin.
The buildings burned in Lowry were
the Farmers State bank, the general
store of J. F. Herman and a pool
room. The total loss there is $4,000,
mostly covered by insurance.
At Alaska the building lately occu-
pied by bank, the plant Of the Akas-
ka News, a poolroom, butcher shop,
saloon and hardware store were de-
stroyed. Total loss $4,000, partly
covered by insurance. ....
Great excitement prevailed owing
to the report of a Lowry resident who
arrived early on the scene of the fire,
to the effect that he saw six horse.
men just leaving town. 1t is believed
that the gang went to Alaska and
started the fire there.
Revenge for the arrest of several
suspected horse thieves is believed to
be the cause of the raid of the towns
of Lowry and Alaska by night riders.
Both towns narrowly escaped being
wiped out by fire.

BANDIT HAS nerve
Holds Up Seven Stages in Yel-
! IOwstOne National Park.
OBTAINS ABOUT $4,000 LOOT.
Over One Hundred People &C.
cupied Coaches Stopped
! by Highwayman.

Butte, Mont, Aug. 25.-One high
wayman, wearing a black mask, held
up and robbed the passengers of seven
stage coaches in Yellowstone Park at
a point only few miles distant from
the Old Faithful Inn, near the Upper
Basin, according to telephone advices
Received here. The coaches left the
hotel in the usual order, at intervals
or a few minutes and were held up
one after the other as fast as they
came in sight.
The highwayman was stationed at

visible from either direction. At the
point of a rifle he lined up the pas
sengers and after relieving them of
money and valuables, allowed them to
enter the stage and resume the jour-
5ngy. This performance the bandit
enacted seven times. It is understood
that he collected in all more than ST.
900. Ths fact that tourists In the
park are not permitted to carry weap-
ons made it impossible for any Of the
passengers or drivers to render re-
.siatance. The robber was a man
As6ut ffty-five years old, weighting
about 14h pounds. After holding up
the last coach he disappeared into the
hills and it was afterward found that
he had made his escape on horse
belonging to the transportation COM
pany.
Even Took Candy From Girls.
The last coach contained five young
ladies'. The highwayman obtained
very little from them, but stopped long
enough to appropriate some candy.
In all about 125 people were held
up, but not all Of these suffered
losses. When he ordered the drivers
minutes with his gun pointed toward
them and then walked down the road.
All haste was made back to Old
Faithful lin to give the alarm. The
soldiers encamped at the Thumb sta
ticn were Immediately notified and
messenger was dispatched to the
camp of soldiers on the West Gallatin
river at the west boundary of the park
The soldiers from Fort Yellowstone

at Springfield.
Springfield, Ill, Aug. 27.-Mrs. Kate
Howard, one of the leaders in the re-
cent riot in this city, committed sui
eide by swallowing acid while being
placed under arrest. She died as she
was being led into the jail.
Before the special grand jury now
in session many witnesses testified
that Mrs. Howard was one of the ring
leaders of the mob which wrecked
Loper's restaurant and cafe. She
was the first person indicted, and was
held on several counts in the sum of
$4,000, which she furnished. When
she was released she said she would
never be arrested again.
Shortly after the special grand jury
returned another indictment against
her charging murder in connection
with the recent lynchings, Deputy
Sheriff Kramer was sent to Mrs. How
ards rooms to arrest her. Mrs. How
ard received the Off Ger at the door.
She secretly swallowed a large dose
OF poison, then said: "1'm ready to
go now" She accompanied the deputy
to the Jail, two blocks away, and was
just entering the jail door when she
fell dead. .'..

TAFT REPLIES TO BRYAN.
Says People Rule Through the Repub-
iican Party,


Hot Springs, Va, Aug. 22-"The
people have ruled through the Repub-
Hcan party" This is William II. Taft's
answer to Mr.. Bryan's challenge,
shall the people ruler"
The answer was made in an address
the Republican presidential candidate
made before gathering of several
thousand Virginia Republicans who
came to the mountains to see and
hear him and to celebrate Virginia
day" To make his point perfectly
clear Mr.. Taft referred to the first
election Of Mr.. Mckinley "as one of
the most intelligent and effective ex-
pressions Of popular will ever mani
tested to the world and the main
tenance of the gold standard and
protective tariff by the administration
was a correct Interpretation of the
peoples will This was shown to be
SO by even a greater majority for the
party in 1900 and still greater major
fly in 1904, when Roosevelt was elect
ed, and we may well submit to the
country whether his administration
has not expressed the will of the peo-
nile"

Perish In Burning CoIiery at
HaiIeyviIIe, Okla.
NET DEATH BY SUFFOCATION
Burning Oil Starts Fire and
Flames Soon Cut Off All
Means of Escape.

Manchester, Okla, Aug. 27.-More
than thirty miners were suffocated in
Hailey-Ola coal mine No. at Haley
vile, fourteen miles east of McAles-
ter when fire destroyed the hosting
shuft and air shaft and cut off the
air frcm the men below.
Twenty-six dead bodies were re-
moved from the mine following a sue
cessful three hours battle with the
flames. It is believed that six Or
eight more will be brought out. Tween
fy-five mules were sufocated and some
of their bodies burned.
Explorations in the channels re-
vealed that none of the men met
death by burning, but all of them were
Bnffocated.
1t is impossible yet for the rescuers
to get far from the base of the main
shaft, and it probably will be twenty
four hours before thorough search
of the entire mine can be made. Some
of the channels are three-quarters of
mile long.
After the miners had gone down in
the cage fire broke out occasioned
by the ignition of a barrel of oil
which a miner was trying to divide.
The flames spread SO rapidly that all
communication with the top was soon
cut off. Hundreds of miners rushed
to the scene and tried to get into the
air shaft, but this was impossible, the
flames and smoke coming up that way
with such force as to drive them back.
Then an effort was made to operate
the cages running up and down the
heisting shaft, but it was found that
the cages, the cables and the guides
had been burned. There was absolute
ay NO help for the imprisoned miners.

Women Who Wear Well.

It's astonishing how great . change Q
few years Of married life often make In
the appearance and disposition Of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
briuiance vanish like the bloom from
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron Is only dim shadow, q faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
rage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
Of its freshness and the form Of Its
fairness.
