Appeal Cost Prohibitive.
Formerly in controversies arising
out Of the tariff the United States
Supreme Court was the court of last
resort, which, with several iuterme-
date appellate tribunals, pat a pro-
hibitive cost upon appeals in most in
stances. The fact that few cases
reached the Supreme Court led TO the
belief that the new court would have
little TO do.
The new law provides an appeal
from the collector Of customs 10 the
general board Of appraisers in New
York, and from there direct 10 the
United States Customs Appeals Court,
where all questions are finally dis
posed Of This brings appeals within
the reacn OF many defendants who
have hitherto been forced 70 content

By Keeping Your Blood in
Good Condition.
Read This Denver Mans Expert
ence Even If You Are Certain
That Your Rheumatism
Is Incurable.

The system which is run down through
overwork or worry, or debilltated from
any cause is in constant danger from an
attack of rheumatism.
In rheumatism the blood is always
thin. Nobody has ever seen true case
of acute rheumatism in which the blood
was rich and red.
A course of treatment with DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills makes rich, red blood
and thereby creates a condition OF the
system in which rheumatism is impos-
sible.
A recently reported cure by this treat
ment Is that of Mr.. o. N. Jones, of No.
$40 West Thirty-frst avenue, Denver,
Colo. ''I was very much run down from
overwork," he says, land rheumatism
developed. I had steady pains across the
back and at times would get go stiff that
Icould hardly straighten out. Sometimes
the pains would extend down the sclatlc
nerves of the limbs, then again there
would be shooting pains through other
parts of my body.
''I kept losing flesh, and could not
get good nights rest My stomach was
in bad condition and had no desire to
eat All the medicine took was OF little
account until I tried DIR; Williams Pink
Pills. / had but little faith in their do
ing me any good but after taking one
box felt so much better that sent for
more. They absolutely cured me and
although my work of mining engineer
takes me in the damp and wet great
deal l have never had the rheumatism
since"
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are guaran-
teed to be safe and harmless to the most
delicate constitution. They contain no
morphine, opiate, narcotic, or anything
to cause drug habit. Owing to their
blood building property they are invalu-
able in the treatment of such diseases as
anemia, green sickness, rheumatism, and
the after-effects of fevers.
Dr. WilliamS Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on

Hutchinson, Kan. Sept 9.-Here is
what Ralph Beach, the 13-year-old
boy, of 9O1 South Main street. who
met an alligator face to face, really
did:
He took note of the location of the
small pool where the alligator was
sleeping. Then he went back to his
house and got shotgun He returned
and climbed a tree. He waited an hour
before he saw the alligator right under
him in another pond. He shot from
the tree, hitting the alligator on the
head 1t dazed the alligator. Then
the boy went back home and got his
father.
The two returned with two ropes.
The alligator's upper jaw was lassoed.
Then the larger rope was used in plac-
ing over the alIigator's neck. K c.
Beck sent a horse and wagon and the
alligator was tied on behind and
dragged back to the park from
whence he escaped week before.
The alligator is still alive. It is

they were surprised to see tons of dead
