WOMEN WHO ARE ENv,FD

Those attractive women who are lovely in face, form and temper are the envy of many who might be like them. A weak, sickley woman will be nervous and irritable. Constipation or Kidney poisions show in pimples, blotches, skin ereputions and wretch ed complexion. For all such Electric bltters work wonders. They regulate stomach, Liver and Kidneys, purify the blood; give strong nerves, bright eyes, pure breath, smooth velvety skin, ioveiy complexion. Many charming women owe their beauty to them 50c at J. 1. Sturdiyant's,

CHICAGO Threatened
WITH BIG CAR STRIKE

Chicago. Aug. 23.-The rejection by
the North n West side street COM
mission last night of the proposed wage
schedule offered by President Roach,
OF the Chicago Railway companies, re-
opens the controversy between the
street car companies and their employ
es, and again brings within the range
or possibility a strike Of all street car
men of this city.
An amicable settlement of the dispute
however is still hoped for, based on.
the efforts which will be made by Pres
tdent William Mahon. of the INTERNAL
tional Street Car Mems union, who Isl
expected here today to take charge OF
the situation. !
Arbitration Only Hope.
It Is probable President Mahon will
ask for a reopening Of the negotiations
and, failing, 1t is predicted, he viii.
offer to submit the entire matter to ar
bitration. According to Walter L.
Fisher, the traction expert, who rep
represented the city in Scent negotia-
tons, he latter course is the only one
now left open. +!
IT believe the companies will not
yield another inch," declared Mr.. Fish
er today. :
Possibility Of a strike prompted act
ing Chief Of Police Schuettler to issue
an order today instructing command
ing officers to cancel all applications OF
policemen for furloughs and also to
learn the whereabouts of all policemen
now on ~furloughs.

the counterfeiters were a~pprehended
n their plan = defraud Mexicans OF

some days ago offered a Louisville
broker a high commission to dispose OF
some Mexican money for him. The
broker notified Chief OF Police Hanger,
who at once enlisted secret service men,
and q trap was set for Marion Rob-
erts. Since Marion Roberts was ar
rested Monday the police learned from
him the information which led to tho
descent upon John Roberts at Sfmp-
sonville yesterday.
, Will Koenig, a printer, has also been
arrested in connection with the case.
Tonight Roberts Is In Jail under $751; o
bond.

Of manufacturers Of bleached -four that
no further seizures Of bleached flour be
made until a test case should have been
decided were refused today, following a
conference between Wade Ellis, acting
attorney general, and DR.. H. +. Dun
lop, of the pure food board of the agri-
cultural department.

department some time ago decided that

ground of impurity, but Of alleged mis-
branding, and the agents OF the de-
partment were instructed to make SELF
ures OF the flour.
Counsel for the millers, the largest
Of whom are in Iowa and Nebraska,
have been seeking to have the seizures
discontinued until a test case could
be made and decided.

seizures will be continued without re-
gard to a test case.

CHORUS ACTORINE
GETS BIG WAD or
PITTSBURC BILLS
Friend Of Harry Thaw Forced
to Pay Large Sum for Fail
ing to Marry Her.

P~ittsburg, Pa, Aug. 25.-MIss Helen
G. Edwards, known from coast to coast
for her histrionic ability, has annexed
p large part of the bank roll OF Samuel
d. Ritter, q Pittsburg millionaire and all
because he refused to marry her after
bringing the young woman from New
York TO this city with the Express pur-
pose or having III marriage ceremony
performed here. The only real impede
ment to Miss Edwards becoming Mrs.
Ritter was the fact that the Ritter fam
lily, which Is well known in the steel
manufacturing world under the name
of the Riter-Conley Manufacturing
company, objected to the young woman
and the senior Ritter learned OF The
plans OF h couple a few hours before
the marriage was to be ~soiemnized.
Friend OF Harry Thaw.
Ritter, who Is an intimate friend of
Harry Thaw, took his own method Of
counting Miss Edwards, which left a
trail Of wine bottles strewn along the
great New York Great White Way. AS
q confirmed bachelor he went to New
York early last May, wher he met
Miss Edwards, who was then with the
queen of the Moulin Rouge COM
ipany, playing at the Circle theater. He
was 40 and she %. Miss Edwards de-
clares that on July 3 he proposed that
they come to Pittsburg for the purpose
of getting married on July 5. Sub
stantiating Miss Edwards story. she
came and registered at the Lincoln
hotel, Mr. Riter's home. Right at that
point the Ritter family stepped in.
NO Thaw notoriety in our family af-
fairs" h elder Ritter is alleged to
have told the intended bridegroom, who
Immediately saw a great light. He
went to Miss Edwards and informed
her that 1t was all off, she would not
be happy with him and it would be
better that they should not marry.
Gets wad Of Bills.
There was q scene. Miss Edwards
left the Lincoln hotel and went to the
Hotel Henry. On July l, through her
attorney, Ralph Strawbridge, she
brought suit against Ritter for $50,OO0
for breach of promise. A capias was
issued and Ritter was arrested at the
Allegheny Country club, of which he
is a member. He Immediately gave bail
through his attorneys, Blakely e. CAL
vert. July 20 Miss Edwards paid her
bill at the Henry hotel with a $500 bill,
at thes same time displaying a roll that
had to be carried with trunk straps.
She said IT was Ritter money, but as she
was unable to become Mrs. Ritter she
would return to the Great Joy Way,
where during the coming season she
would endeavor to make money for the
Shuberts. She formerly was a member
of the "Piff, Paff, Pour and the Fol
lies of 1907" companies.
A few moments after Miss Edwards
displayed the bundle Of yellow bills a
line was inserted across the records of
the suit in the our house. 1t reads:
Settled, discontinued" Ritter today
refused to discuss his broken
riage."
