 The above is only one of the thou sands of grateful letters which are constantly being received by the Pinkham Medicine Company of Lynn, Mass, which prove beyond a doubt that Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pound, made from roots and herbs, actually does cure these obstinate dis eases of women after all other means have failed, and that every such suf- ering woman owes 1t to herself to at least give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta- ble Compound a trial before submit ting to an operation, or giving up hope of recovery.
 Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass, invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health and her advice is free.

Il was about to offer a reward or fifty dollars for the return of the ~atch," continued the visitor, and ewing to the somewhat peculiar clr- sunnstances under which I first met seu, 1 thought that you would posst- bly, not be averse Pray do not misunderstood me. We had the stewardess, a trustworthy woman, lcok on board the ship, but she could rot find the watch. l believe that she attributed it's disappearance to ghost. and am sorry to say that suspected her. However the whole affair F. your present cos tune
 You came to offer me the reward T said Chester, as his visitor paused in embarrassment. Believe me, l un- 6erstand and appreciate your kind ress and delicacy, but of course cannot accept"
 ''It was pure chance that you dis covered the watch" continued his  visitor. "and the reward would naturally go to the finder"
 Unless" said Chester. "he hap pened to be someone in your own class. You spoke as if you had some compunctions about a possible sus- picion of the stewardess. Why not send 1t to her?"
 '.She is a silly superstitious wom en,Y replied his interlocutor. T as sure you that it would be favor to me if you would accept it"
 'swouid you accept it in my place 9 asked Chester shortly.
 NO, sir," replied the elder man 'I would. not. I beg your pardon Good afternoon"
 He turned to go.

 "Mr. Elkins," said Chester.
 "I am MT. Elkins,' said the lan- tern-lawed man. What is it?"
 "Job," announced Chester, coming to the point at once.
 Nothing doing," retorted Ellkins, Good day"
 "Oh, yes, there is," said Chester pleasantly, as Elkins turned away. q beg your pardon but there is.''
 1T said there was not" thundered Elkins in voice that made the par titions vibrate. The strain of Wall Street was showing again.
 That's an extremely good asset D remarked Chester imperturbably.
 What is?" gasped Elkins.
 "A big voice.
 As Elkins stood glaring in speech less rage, Goldsmith joined in the conversation.
 What can you do, young man?'' he inquired.
 "Everything." asserted Chester. "even to moving a red-headed lady,
 "So? How quick can you do 1t?''
 "It is now eleven o'clock" said Chester. 'I can get her moved by nightfalI.'
 "The lady is Mr. Elkins' secretary" said Goldsmith. With his permission I will introduce you. We need your services today at any rate.''
 He turned to Elkins, who nodded acquiescence. and touched a bell on the heavy oak desk
 'Well-dressed, eager, will deliver the goods,'' was GoIdsmiths whisper ed comment to Elkins as Chester turned to meet the secretary. Eikins gazed back at his big partner with something akin to admiration. ''ls there anything you don't turn to ac- count?" he muttered.
 That's what situations are for"
 A girl with mass of red bronze hair, the clear complexion which goes with it. and wide awake grey eyes appeared in the doorway.
 Miss Foster,'' said Goldsmith suavely, 'this gentleman has under. taken to get you moved before night. fall so that you can put through tha' work in the morning. Please give him the details and don't sit up toe late tonight arranging your new apartment. MT. Taylor, Miss Eos ter.''
 Chester followed the girl speech lessly into second oak-paneled of flee, occupied by her desk and a roy of telephones. 11

 "Indeed?" said his visitor.
 "I will not deny," Chester con tinued, "that I am in straits which gre, I trust, only temporary. should be very grateful for the loan of fifty dollars"
 His visitor drew a roll of bills from his pocket
 "pn one condition" added Chester. And that?''
 'Is that you will hurry out and put il up for me on Birchbark in the last race at New Orleans. It is an hour later there, and if you hurry you will be just in t1me."
 A gleam of responsive light flicker cd momentarily behind the old gem tleman's glasses. His formality van- tshed for an instant as he recognized a fellow sportsman.
 '.Is it . good thingr" he inquired eagerly.
 Fifty to one. Tip from fellow that ought to know" answered Ches- ter laconically.
 .T'll be back in half an hour," said Twining over his shoulder.
 Chester sank back into his chair again, and lit another cigar.
 "That girl" he reflected. certain: 1y has wonderful eyes. Let's recapi tulate. Things have been moving rather fast. The first time met hel I made a bally ass of myself. Ths second time I met her called her b, her first name. And now she send me fifty dollars, and I promptly sens her father out to bet 1t on horse race. Handsome beginning. If i: certain kindly gleam hadn't come In to the old gentleman's eye when mentioned horseracing I certainl should have lost my nerve in spit of my friend, the gamblers advice felt it oozing away from me. Ncve should have dreamed that the ol boy played the ponies. How lon ago that bar-room poker game seems She certainly has wonderful eyes" Chester deposited his cigar in a ash-tray, leaned back in the big well padded chair, and dozed. He wa wakened from delicious nap by brisk rap at the door.
 Come in," he 'yawned.
 The girls father stood in the door way.
 Allow me-" he said, "To hand yo twenty-five hundred dollars. Birch bark wou."
 Allow me-" said Chester, accept ing the proffered roll of bills, ''t return to you the fifty dollars whic you were so kind to loan me-"

 He drew forth another roll of bill Five thousand" he remarked. . put up a hundred"

Over 200 Shots Are Fired in Pitched
Battle in Street at Steuben
vile, D.

STEUBENVILLE. O., May IA
pitched battle at 1 o'clock this morning
between fifty men, alleged to be strikers,
formerly employed at the La Belle Iron
works, this city, and two private detec-
tives, in the employ of the iron concern,
resulted in the death of one of the de-
tectives, John Reardon of Pittsburg. He
was killed by a volley of shots from the
revolvers of the alleged strikers and sym
pathizers. In the street battle over 200
shots were exchanged. AS far as is
known, none of the strikers were injured.
Three boxes, which served as breast
works for the two private detectives,
were literally riddled by bullets.

Guilty of Murder

CORYDON, Ind, May 7.-Thomas
Jefferson Hoal, the Louisville boy ban
dit was found guilty of murder here to-
day and sentenced to life imprisonment.
Hoal, who is II years old, last November

chauffeur to drive him to the bank at
noon through the crowded streets of
Louisville and New Albany. In the bank
he became excited, shot and killed CASH
Ter j. Hungary tawcett, wounded Presi-
dent J. X. Woodward and also the negro
chauffeur. Without securing any money.
he dashed from the bank and attempted
to cross the Ohio river to Louisville in
skiff, being captured in midstream by
the police. His remarkable nerve greatly
helped the police in saving him from
threatened lynching. Mental detective
ness was his defense.

The morning services at the churches
were more largely attended than usual
today. All of the congregations were in
deep mourning. A notable change in the
service was the substitution of the
words, '"The Queen, the Queen Dowager
and all the royal family for the famil-
Princess of Wales and all the royal fam
lily"
The bulk of the population of the
country have donned mourning garb in
some form. Men who are not wholly
clothed IN black or wearing black neck
scarfs or black bands about their coat
sleeves. The women seen are almost
without exception dressed in black.
Streamers of crepe nang from the whips
in the hands of the cabmen. lie shop
fronts bear mourning shutters.
Kaiser Sends Telegram.
Since earliest morning flood of mes
sages have been pouring into the palace
from the chiefs of foreig n lands. One
of the first received by the Queen Dow
ager was a sympathetic telegram from
Emperor William. Ambassador Reid
and Secretary Philips of the American
legation were early callers at Bucking-
ham palace and Marlborough house,
where. in the visitors book, they in
scribed their names and those of their
wives. Later members of the diplomatic
corps called. Mr. Reid also left cards for
Sir Edward Grey, while attaches of the
embassy paid a similar duty at the war
office and at the admiralty. The flags
at Dorchester house and the American
embassy are at half mast.

of which she is 50 much Ill need.
The funeral arrangements are not yet
announced, but the expectation of court
circles is that the body of his majesty
will be buried at Frogmore near the
bodies of his father, mother and son.
The burial probably will be delayed for
ten days to allow time for the arrival
of foreign Populations.
Towards noon the members of the
royal family began to arrive at Bucking-
ham palace. King George, who had
been occupied throughout the morning
with affairs of state, arrived at lunch
con time in company with Queen Mary.

King George drove in simple fashion
back to Marlborough house without the
military escort and pomp which has
characterized royal functions of late
years.
The funeral of King Edward has not
get been set, but it is believed he will
be buried at Frogmore in about ten
days.
With today's ceremony and in his
forty-hfth year the second son born to
King Edward VII. and Queen Alex
andra, becomes the ruler of the united
kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, of
the British dOminiOns beyond the seas.
