THOUGHT SELFFREE
MARRIED AGAIN
Mrs. Millspaugh Says Husband Told
Her He'd Divorced Her-Woman
and New Spouse Arrested.

Mr.. and Mrs. BENJAMIN 8. Pier. No.
1907 Third-ave., are victims OF a Pc
culiar combination Of circumstances.
They are now under police restraint.
pending the outcome Of their case.
and their lawyer. James Neill, says 1t
will take some time to extricate them
from their ENHANCEMENT and place
them on legal plane of matrimony.
The couple were arrested, Wednes-
day night, on complaint OF Bert"
Millspaugh, OF Port Jervis, N Y. who
alleges that Mrs. Pier is his wife. Pier
was taken from his work in the plant
of the Cadillac Motor Co., where he
Is employed in the office as clerk,
while his wife was taken from her
Third-ave. home. They spent the
night in the Wayne county jail, but
were planning, Thursday morning, TO
get out in time to have their Thanks
giving dinner at home.
Pier. who Is about 80 years old, said.
in the jail, that he married Mrs. Mills
paugh three years ago, in Brooklyn,
after she had received a letter from
her husband, stating that he had been
divorced from her.
I'VE presumed that Millspaugh was
telling the truth and we got married, y
said Mr. Pier. Mrs. Millspaugh is
the best little woman in the world and
| am going to stick TO her"
Mrs. Pier, or Millspaugh, also in
terviewed in Jail, corroborated what
Pier had said in regard to Millspaugh
having written to her, saying he had
secured a divorce. She intimated that
Millspaugh didn't go near her after
she separated from him. She said
she had to go to work for a living
and thinks it cruel OF him TO bother
her now, when she has a good home
and Is happy. She was anxious to get
out of Jail, explaining she had room
ers, and that there was nobody to
take care of the rooms. She has no
children. She destroyed the letter In
which she says Millspaugh told OF be-
ing divorced.
Millspaugh Is staying at the Hotel
Oxford, Woodward-ave. and Larned
St He notified the clerk of the no
tel. Thursday morning, that h.
wouldn't see newspaper men. He is
said TO represent that he secured
no divorce from his wife.
Attorney NelI says lndl tHe Shol Sc
preferred against Pier and his wife,
or Mrs. Millspaugh, will not stand a
test in the police court, and that the
prosecution will make no Roadway
with a charge of bigamy.
IF it should turn out that Mills
paugh didn't get divorce said Mr.
Neill, Mrs. Millspaughs proper
course. If she wants to stick to Pier
would be to sue for divorce herself
Given a decree. she would then be
free to again marry Pier

Ell PASO, Tex, Nov. 24.-Though
government inspired dispatches from
many parts OF Northern Mexico indi-
cate that the Diaz government was
rapidly regaining the upper hand In
chihuahua, Durango, Coahuila and
other northern states. representatives
OF the Mexican revolutionary junta
here today ridiculed the reports.
They assert that piaz, being in con-
troll of the telegraph lines throughout
the republic, has merely made his
censorship more strict. and is taking
care that no further reports of rebel
success shall filter through to the
United States.
They point to the fact that refugees
from Torreon, arriving last night ana
this morning. declare that a fierce
battle was fought at Torreon yes
terday. They say long range guns
mounted by the revolutionists out
side the city swept the city for sew
eral hours and that the rebels then
advanced In force and drove out
Diaz's troops. -

= The reports OF a new battle at
Torreon yesterday are generally
credited, as II is known that Gen.
Treyino, with large force of fed
eral troops from Montrey was due to
arrive there about noon yesterday.
The Diaz government also announc-
ed today that its soldiers had recap
tured from the rebels control OF the
Madero branch Of the Mexican North

killed.
Americans throughout Mexico today
rushed kilograms here for the trans

'sVffAAgtIIEs
SENT TO PRISON
Large Number Refuses To Pay Fines
For Attacking House of Parlia-
ment and Homes of Officials.

LONDON, Nov. 24.-Scores of sui
fragettes are going to jail today.
A suffragette in Jail is dangerous
for the English government, for the
militant woman have an unhappy
habit OF starving themselves when
forced to remain behind prison bars
Magistrate De Rutzen. sitting In the
Bow-st police court, was kept busy
all day trying the hundreds OF
suffragettes who participated in the
various attacks on the house OF par
lament, the homes OF several of the
ministers, Premier Asquith and other
political leaders during the past week
The magistrate imposed average
fines OF five pounds ($25) upon the wo-
men and not one of them would pay
the fine. Every one chose prison In
stead.
The fear of the government aginst
action of the women in prison was
shown when the prosecution, acting
under orders apparently from the
Home Office. insisted that no women
should be found guilty who was
shown actually to have taken part
In the violence. In spite of this plea
on the part of the government 8
prosecutors, Magistrate De Rutzen in
sisted on imposing fines, declaring
that mercy merely encouraged the wo-
men to fresh riots.
The Home Office has not forgotten
the last batch of suffragettes sent To
Jail and the scandal they caused.
They refused to eat, and the prison
officials used stomach pumps and 9th
err mechanical means to force food
into them. Several women nearly
died. All had to be pardoned by the
home secretary.

SOUR STOMACH.
Mi-o-na Puts the Stomach i'll Fin
Shape in Five Minutes.

If your stomach is continually
kicking up a disturbance; you feel
bloated and distressed; if you belch
gas and sour food into the mouth,
then you need Mi-o-na Tablets.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets give in
slant relief, of course, but they do
more; they drive out the poisonous
gases that cause fermentation of food
and thoroughly clean, renovate and
strengthen the stomach so that it can
readily digest food without artificial
aid
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are guar
anteed to cure indigestion, acute or
chronic or money back. This means
that nervousness, dizziness and bill
iousness will disappear. Druggists
everywhere and Van Werden & Kopp
sell Mi-o-na for SO cents.

SOME STARTLING FIGURES.
Tuberculosis Still Reaps Awful Har-
vest. People Must Act.

Des Moines, Feb. 15.-The report |
of the state board of health concern
ing the number of deaths from tuber- |
culosis is startling. There were 1915
persons reported to have died from
tuberculosis last year. If 1915 were
the whole number it would be bad
enough, but it is believed by those in
position to know that this number
can be multiplied by two, thus max
ing more than 3 1000 persons who died
in Iowa last year from preventable
disease. And it would be interesting
indeed, were it possible to make an
analysis of these deaths. We would
| find no age or condition had been
spared, and that while tuberculosis is
a disease of the poor, yet the rich had
not escaped. We would find young
mothers smitten in the midst OF COO
ing babyhood and playing children;
| the wage Garner, the man who does
the heavy work has been destroyed,
the minister, lawyer, doctor banker,
farmer, editor, in fact every profess
sion and trade has been compelled to
walk the great white way to death.
What awful havoc! What needless
waste of human life! What tragedy
of sorrow! What cause of crime!
| w ildL pIOUlcluS lOI CudIlCy. w h1S
financial loss!
If the economic aspect alone We're
to be urged as a reason for the abo-
lition OF tuberculosis it would be suf-
ficient as the loss to Iowa last year
Appropriated more than $5,000,OOO.
The large number of these persons
who died were young, just at the
highest point of efficiency and great
est value to the state and the financial
loss involved is appalling indeed.
This disease reaps the largest har-
vest of all contagious and infectious
diseases put together with possibly
the exception of pneumonia and we
, have come to the time when the peo-
pie must act.
1t is worse than folly for intelligent
people such as compose the citizen
ship of Iowa to permit tuberculosis to
destroy untimely this vast number.
Let the people read the startling
, figures given here. Let them think
of what the future must hold for
many children, then let the children
be taken care of and society protected
by restrictive measures.

MICROBES in
THE SCALP.
The Latest Explanation Is that MI
CrObes Cause Badness.

Professor Unna, of Hamburg,
German, and DR.. Sabourand, of
Paris, France, share the honor of
having discovered the hair microbe.
Badness is not caused through
few weeks work of these hair
microbes, but is the result of con-
ditions brought about by their
presence Badness may not occur
until years after the microbes began
work, but it is certain to come soon
er or later.
The microbes cut off the blood
supply. They feed on the fatty mat
ter about the roots of the hair,
through which the blood is absorbed.
Finally the fatty matter is consum-
ed, the food supply of the hair is
gone and it starves and finally dies.
Resorcin is one of the most eff
fective germ destroyers ever discov-
cred. Beta Naphthol is most pow
erful, yet absolute safe germicide
and antiseptic, which prevents de-
velopment of germ matter, and Gre
ates clean, healthy condition.
Pilocarpine, although not color
ing matter or dye, is an ingredient
well established for its power to re-
store natural color to human hair
when loss of color has been caused
by a disease.
Borax, because of its well-defined
softening and cleansing properties,
is most useful in the treatment of
scalp and hair diseases. Glycerine
acts as stimulant to the hair bulbs,
and has soothing, healing and nour-
fishing influence. Alcohol is indis-
pensable in medicine because of it's
antiseptic, stimulating and preserva-
tive qualities.
We want every one who has scalp
or hair trouble to try Rexall "93''
Hair Tonic, which contains all these
ingredients. If it does not give you
complete satisfaction in every par.
ticular, we will return every penny
you paid us for it, for the mere ask.

when we say that Rexall 1913" Hail
Tonic will grow hair we do not refer
to cases where the roots are entirely
dead, the pores of the scalp closed
and the head has the shiny appear
ance of billiard ball. In cases like

Work on GAINESVILLE Shaft Progress
ing.

Work at the shaft has progressed
well since our last issue. Advantage
of the few nice days the first of the
week and the roof of the boiler
house was finished and now the boys
are Independent of the weather. The
roof is composed of prepared gravel
roofing and it could not be handled
in cold weather.
1t was expected to put in the con-
crete foundation walls Of the boiler.
house this week, but the severe
weather will prevent. When these
foundation walls are in the building
will be complete for the present
though later it will be brick
veneered.
Two other big boilers have been
located, the cast iron fronts set in
place and the work of casing them
in with brick is in progress. This
will make four big boilers which will
furnish plenty of steam for the pres
ent, though space is left for two
| more should they be needed in the
| future.
Work on the shaft is going right
along whether the weather is good
or bad, it seems all the same to the
shaft men. The main shaft is down
| about twenty-five feet to the solid
rock, and the boys are now at work
putting in the concrete collar. This
collar will be twenty-five feet deep,
or to the solid rock, and two feet in
thickness and will put an effectual
end to the caving.
Work on the air shaft is also pro-
crossing nicely Steam connections
were made and the first dirt was
hoisted by steam from the air shaft
Monday morning, and by the time
this issue reaches our readers the all
shaft will be about fifteen feet deep
A concrete collar will also be put il
the air shaft when the solid rock i:
reached which will be at the twenty
five foot level. The Dowell Bros
are hustlers and see that things keel
humming in their line of work.
A car of about 10000 feet o
heavy timber was received a few
nights ago and another car arrived
Tuesday night, and another is on tn
way. Our people are hauling tn
material from the cars to the site o
the shaft to be used when needed
Probably 40 or SO cars of materia
have been received.-Cainsvill
