A. F. Of L. Will Today Make New
Move in Famous Boycott Case.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Before the su-
premc court of the United States to-
morrow attorneys for the American
Federation of Labor will ask that the
original anti-boycott injunction issued
by Judge Gould in the now famous
Bucks Stove & Range Co. case be dis
missed. Samuel Gompers. John Mitch

the federation who are now under SEN
tence for contempt of court for violat-
ing the Injunction, are also parties to

This move in short, requires the SUI
preme court OF the United States to de-
eide if the American Federation of La
bor's boycott of the Bucks Stove &
Range Co. in it's official organ, The
Federationist, was a lawful procedure.
The court of appeals of the District of
Columbia has held that it was not and
with some notifications has sustained
Judge GOuldS injunction. The Bucks
Stove & Range Co. has already filed an
appeal to the supreme court Of the
United States against the modifica-

l.. T.. Cooper's theory regarding the
human stomach is rapidly becoming a
topic of universal discussion. Cooper
claims that the human stomach has
become chemically deranged by mod
ern conditions, and that sickness gen.
orally is the result.
In a recent interview, while intro
ducing his medicine in a leading city,
Mr.. Cooper said: There is just one
way, in my opinion, to maintain gen.
eral health, and that is by building UP
the digestive organs. The vast ma
jority Of Americans today have weak,
fabby, distended stomachs. This has
been caused by many generations of
over-feeding and lack Of exercise, I'M
til today the entire civilized race is af-
fected. This is the true cause of most
of the liz health of today. Little can
ne done to relieve it until the stomach
is once more brought back to normal
conditions.
Il am successful because my prepar.
ation puts the stomach in sound condi-
ton, and / maintain this is the only
way 20 secure general ard permanent
good health"
Among those who have become firm
believers in Mr.. Cooper's theory and
medicines through a personal test of
his claims, is Mrs. Anna Maring Of
Denn:son, Clark county. Illinois, who
lives on Rural Route No. 1. Box 81.
Mrs Marins says: For years 1 have
suffered agony from stomach trouble.
l could not eat anything without hav>
ing the greatest distress afterwards.
My appetite was poor-did not care to
eat-afraid of tfe results that were
sure to follow. My digestive organs

The riders kept consistently at a
pace which slowly netted them frac-

year ago for the corresponding num-
Der of hours. The galleries were filled
with enthusiastic spectators. many of
whom had been in their seats since
morning, and the smoke was so thick
that some of the riders wore goggles.
One spectator with weak heart
dropped dead from excitement during
a sprint.

Girl Commits Suicide,
Preys Upon Fathers Sacrifices
for Her Education.
Carefully Plans Death..Body Found
In Cistern at Her Home.

Fishkill Landing, N. Y, Dec. 6.-The
body of Miss Margaret Dauerty. the
.Vassar student, who disappeared yes
lerday, was found late today in the cis-
tern of her fathers home at Hughson-
Vile. Miss Dauerty, who was the
daughter of Rev. VIM. H. Dauerty,
wandered away from the care Of her
friends yesterday morning. 1t was
known that she had been forced to
abandon her studies at Vassar because
of mental strain, due to overwork, and
from the moment her absence was no.
ticed there was the greatest anxiety
for her safety. The all-night and day
search came to a sad ending, when a
railroad detective found the lifeless
body of the girl in six feet of water at
the bottom of the cistern.
Appearances indicated a carefully
planned suicide. The cover of the els
tern was in it's usual position. 1t seems
that she raised it, allowing it to fall
back in place over her as she jumped
to death below. There were no evil
dences of foul play.
Miss Dauerty was ambitious to make
her first year at Vassar a creditable
enc. She knew that her father had
abandoned a rich parish in New Jer-
sey to accept his small charge in
Hughsonville expressly that his daugh-
ter might be near enough Vassar to
commute Her ambitions, however, out
ran her strength and three weeks ago
she broke down and was forced to re-
main at home. The thought that her in
disposition had nullified her fathers
sacrifices for her SO preyed on her
mind that the family feared she might
attempt suicide and tried to keep close
watch on her
Sunday morning, when her father
was at church, furnished the chance
she sought. Slipping from the house
she disappeared and the efforts of
many searching parties failed to find
her until late today. The distracted pa
rents were inconsolable tonight when
the sad news was broken to them. An
inquest was postponed until tomor-
row.

address before Tie Sunday Evening

in the ProhibitioEist party and several
times as many of them in the Republic

Mr. Woolley said that the fight
against the saloon will ultimately be
won. Incidentally said the women
could hasten the day if they were per-
mitted to vote.

And Shorter Games Says Ban John
son of American League.

Chicago, Dec. 6-"Ban" B. Johnson,
president of the American Baseball
League, said tonight that the Ameri-
can League owners would be a unit at
the New York meeting next week for
short season schedule and shorter
games. He said:
1--WE shall try to do away with the
custom of letting the pitcher throw
four practice balls to the catcher, un-
less the pitcher has just been at bat
I am in favor of making the schedule
of games as short as possible. Last
year seven of the American League
owners were in favor of 40 games,
while the eighth wanted 154 games. The
American League was really set for
140 games, but for harmony's sake and
to save muddling up the schedule we
compromised on 154 games. In the COM
ing year we want a shorter schedule"
