SON OF CATTLEMAN
IS KILLED
DAVID MAC kENZlE is SHOT
DOWN IN SALOON BY A
FORMER EMPloYE.

Lebeau, $. D.. Dec. 1l.-Davld G.,
Mackenzie, son nf Murdo Mackenzie,
former president of the National Live
stock association, was today shot and
killed by Bud" Stephenson. formerly
employed on the Matador ranch. of
which Mackenzie was manager. Ste
phenson was arrested shortly after the
shooting and later taken to Seihy to
prevent threatened violence. just what
led up to the shooting is a mystery,
and Stephenson refuses to talk. The
two men met in a saloon and without
a word Stephenson opened fire on
Mackenzie.
The first bullet entered Maekenzie's
lung. and being unarmed, he started
for the door. Stephenson fired two
more shots. one OF which pierced the
arm and the other the heart. Mac
kenzie died within a few moments.
Considerable feeling existed between
the men because of former difficulties.
Stephenson has been away from the
Matador ranch for some time. An in
quest tonight resulted in verdict
which held Stephenson to the grand
jury on charge of murder.
Mackenzie came here from Trinidad
Colo. where he was well known.

today followed inquiries from several
husbands. whose wives had discovered
the deception.
That there will be no prosecution
of the woman. however. should she
be located is assured. as none of the
victims is willing To assume the re-
Sponsibility.
Calling at the most fashionable
homes, the young woman. dressed i'm
sombre black and wearing valuable
set of furs, asked TO see the matron
of the house. In a few cases she was
allowed admittance To the library
where she recited sorrowful tale of
how she had come To the end of her
resources with the death of an in
valid husband
She could easily get enough money
otherwise to return to her home in the
east by appealing to her family, but,
she explained. they opposed my mar
rage To Jack. any my pride prevents
me from doing that.
Then she said that If she could only
sell her furs for SIS or so she would
be able tn return home
MY father paid sa50 for them to n
London fnrricr.' she added. ..and you
may see that they are genuine" The
matron's sympathy was generally
aroused and The contract made.

WHITE SLAVE BILL .. :
WILL Be DISCUSSED

Washington, Dee. 1.-THE white
slave bill. introduced by Chairman
Mann of the house committee on in
terstate and foreign commerce, will be
taken up by that committee next Mon
day. The committees so directed today.
The intention is To press the measure.
and its advocates expect its passage
by both houses of congress.
The only stumbling block sighted Is
the hairbreadth of distinction as to the
interstate commerce law over such a
matter, but those urging the bill be-
lieve that members OF both houses
will have no difference as to the mer-
its of the proposed legislation.
The Mann bill is designed to regu-
late and prevent the transportation in
interstate and foreign commerce OF
alien women and girls for immoral
purposes. .~

You wonder why you are short and cross.

it is due to that pain in your back partly
to the irritating effect of uric acid on
your brain and nerves.
Uric acid Is a poison that is always
forming in the body, and IL is the duty Of
the kidneys TO filter II out of the blood
and pass il off, dissolved, in the urine.
Healthy kidneys do this work thoroughly
and we'll, but weak or sick kidneys get
behind, and the waste matter collects
here and there in the muscles, joints and
nerve centers. Headache. dizzy spells,

Weather. crop and industrial reports are
still irregular, rendering general character
ization difficult. Taken as a whole. there
is, however, d slightly larger business do
ing, this being particularly true Of retail
trade in sections where weather permits
and In bookings for fall and winter de-
livery at wholesale. In portions of the
south and in the east generally there is
more confident purchasing. higher prices
for cotton. while the advance of the season
helps trade along the Atlantic seaboard.
Business on the Pacific coast has expanded
slightly In the central west trade at re-
tail is expanding slowly and a rather bet
ter business is reported with country mer-
chants, but jobbing activity is not as pro-
nounced as II was some weeks ago.
Industry is in a rather spotted condition.
There is more doing In iron and steel, but
largely, IL is claimed, at the expense OF
prices. The improvement noted in cotton
goods industry is maintained. Prices OF
staple goods are firm. There is more
doing In silk manufacturing.
