Lunatic After Fight.
Thomas Tremble Was Recently

Fugitive Hides in Dugout and

PhilhpSburg Kan, June 2S.-The day
of the devil-may- care western sheriff
has not passed. With his right arm
hanging helpless from a bullet wound
Sheriff Mckenzie entered a dugout Ii
miles west of here and. armed with an
empty revolver, captured a half-cIazed
man who had attempted murder.
The man, Thomas Tremble, was re-
Gently parolled from an asylum. He
skot five times at a brother in Phil
'ipsburg and fed in the darkness,
shouting defiance at his p"-suers. The
brother was wounded
Mckenzie and a few companions
started after Temple in a motor car.
After 10 miles of slow driving a re-
volver shot from a dark clurnp beside
the road told that the fugitive had
been Overtaken. One bullet tore through
the leather seat of the car and others
Whistled near by. The sheriff fired
rapidly at the vivid flashes. A bullet
struck his right arm and he changed
the revolver to his left hand and con-
tinued to shoot. Then the man on the
ground broke from cover and rar.
across a field, disappearing in the beck
Goor of a farmers abandoned dugout
The sheriff sprang in pursuit but his
revolver only clicked as he aimed at
the door and pulled the trigger. All the
cartridges had been exploded. Inside
the cave the hunted man was crouch
ing silently.
McKe1zic's run did not halt as he
cleared the Iast few yards. The other
men coming across the field saw him
enter the door like a halfback bucking
a football line. They stopped outside
the door an instant and the sheriff re-
appeared with blood dripping from his
wounded arm, dragging his prisoner.
Mckenzie had used his empty revolt
yer as a club. Later, it was learned,
the captive was slightly wounded in
his hip. His revolver, too. was empty.
When the prisoner was returned to
PhillipSburg there were cries for a
mob, but Mckenzie. who had reloaded
his revolver. suppressed the demon

LAWRENCE SEEKS q. p. SHOPS.
Kansas City, Kan, However, Doesn't
Believe They Will Be Moved.

DCuCNC 1lCS VIII A0C 4IONCo.
Lawrence, Kan, June 2S.-Law-
renee is to make a determined effort
to get the Union Pacific shops, which
are to be moved from Armstrong. This
was determined upon at q meeting of
the Commercial club last night. The
plans are for the city to give the site,
build a new bridge across the Kaw
river and offer every possible induce
ment to the Union Pacific Railroad
company to put the shops here.
H. G. Kali, assistant general freight
and passenger agent, and r. L. Davis,
assistant superintendent, were enter
tanned at the Commercial club dinner
last night Both said they would IA
vor Lawrence in every possible way.
Twenty-Five hundred men are en-
ployed at Armstrong. Junction City
is trying to induce the Union Pacific
to take the shops to that division.
Kansas City, Kan, June 28.-The
Union Pacific officials notified the Mer-
camille club of Kansas City, Kan, two
years ago when new shops were con-
templated that the yards in Armstrong
were too small for extensive improve
ments At that time Junction City
made a bid for the shops Lawrence
then was not considered. Each time
report that the shops were to be
moved reached the trainmen and ma
chiniSts remonStranceS against going
to smaller city were made to the Off
Gals So many similar reports have
been made that members of the Mer-
camille club did not consider the Law
renee rumor seriously last night.

RAILROAD NEWS.
Certificates Made to Back Up
Equipment Plans.
Trust Bonds i'm America Exceed
Fifty Millions.
OTHERS EXPECTED.
Baltimore & Ohio and HaWley
Lines Soon on Market.
Other Items of General Interest
in Railroad World.

With the issuance of s22, 500, 900 in
trust certificates for equipment by the
New York Central lines, the total
amount of this form of obligation
which has been issued since January 1
on the various railroads of the United
States will exceed $1,000, 900.
A considerable part of these equip
ment trust certificates virtually are
short term notes, as the earlier series
of some issues mature in as short a
time as six months, and as a factor in
the investment situation Of the past
few months this substantial amount Is
believed to have had its effect.
Some $40, 1000, 600 of short term notes
alone were issued since January 1, al
though not all of this large aggregate
was placed in the home market. At
least half of it, however, was offered
in direct appeal to the American in
vestment public. Add to this the $4S,-
900 900 old equipment obligations, and it
is not difficult to see one of the reasons
why it has been impossible to place
lone term bonds very readily. Institu-
tional selling of long term high grade
bonds became clearly discernible about
a. year ago, since which time these
lenders of money have been drifting
more and more into short time paper.
The following items comprise the to-
tai issued in equipment trust certffl-
Gates thus far during 1910: New YORK
Central, s22, 500, 900; Rock Island, So

AN ALARMING LOT
OF SYMPTO
Often Disappear When the Blood Is
Simply Bui1t Up With a Good
Tonic Remedy.

Many people who are in a chronic con-
dition of i'll health really need nothing
more than tonic
1t is the blood that is at fault and with
the vital fluid scanty, lacking in richness
or purity, there are frequently produced
an, alarming lot OF symptoms all of which
VIII disappear when the blood is again
built up.
The name anaemic has been given to the
condition when the blood is thin and
poor. 1t is a Greek word and means
simply too little blood The patient is
falgued after slight exertion and the
least exercise results in shortness of
breath. 1t is a condition which ALWAYS
brings on lear of consumption and it
advances so gradually that its progress is
seldom noticed until it is well estab-
ished.
The one remedy for bloodless condi-
ton is more blood. That is why DR..
Williams Pink Pills, the great blood
maker, have accomplished SO many cures.
The case of Mrs. Lewis R. Borland, of
Frazee, Mimi, is convincing proof of the
value OF the tonic treatment with DIR.
Williams Pink Pills. She says:
when 1 was about twelve years old
took severe cold, which left me in q
weakened condition. l thought nothing
OF it at first but L kept getting weaker
until | was confined to my bed for a day
or so at time. l was pale and did not
have a particle of color l had severe
dizzy spells with a fainting sensation and
became so sick that had to leave school.
My appetite was poor and l ate hardly
enough to keep me from starving. My
parents thought | was going into quick
consumption and were alarmed at my
condition.
II tried different remedies without re-
lief until began taking DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. They had cured cousin,
when she was suffering as 1 did, and my
parents decided to have me try the pills.
They proved the turning point in my
life for 1 got well in a short time have
never had to use medicine since and can
truthfully say that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills were the means of giving me my
present good health"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt of price, so cents per box; six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams

NO MORE EXCURSION RATES?
Chicago Says Western Roads VIII
Abolish Them

Chicago, ILL.,, June 2S.-OficiaIs of
western and southwestern railroads
are considering the abolition of special
excursion rates which long have been
considered too low, and to this end
there is proposition under considera-
ton to set these rates generally upon
a higher basis. Though. it was re-
ported that at a meeting Yesterday be-
tween officials Of the two. territories
a definite decision had been reached to
abolish all special fares, no conclusive
action was taken at the meeting. and
no provision was made for a future
conference, though one probably will
be held soon.
The class of rates which is princi-
pally in question is the weekend ex-
cursions, as. for instance from Chica-
go to Peoria or Springfield, which are
considered to be on too low a basis
Though nothing was said concerning
colonists' fares and homeseekers' fares
etc, said officials today, the move may
involve also these rates, to bring the
general level of passenger charges to
a more remunerative basis.

A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE
Medicine Not Needed in This Case.

1t is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury! They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsupported
one.
But the doctor knows His wide ex-
perience has proven to him that, to
some systems. coffee is an insidious
poison that undermines the health.
Ask the doctor If coffee is the cause
of constipation, stomach and nervous
troubles.
'I have been a coffee drinker all my
life. I am now AZ years old and when
taken sick two years ago with nervous
prostration, the doctor said that my
nervous system was broken down and
that 1 would have to give up coffee.

WAS HE A KANSAN?
Executors Say Peter Swope Moved to
Ottawa and Died There.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 2S.-That a
Peter NJ. Swope went to Ottawa, Kan,
during the Civil war and died there,
will be one of the defenses the Swope
executors will make against the asser-
ton of Elmer Swope of Martinsburg,
w. Va, that he is a son of the late
Thomas H. Swope. This Peter M.
Swope, the Swope attorneys say, is the
man who married Elizabeth Carroll,
mother of Elmer Swope.
By showing that Colonel Swope was
in Kansas City, building up his great
fortune here while Peter Swope lived
in Ottawa, the Swope executors be-
lieve the claim of the West Virginia
Swope will be disproved. Dispositions
will be taken by T. A Milton, Elmer
Swopes attorney. Three early resi-
dents of Kansas City, who say they
heard Colonel Swope speak of a ro-
nance, will testify.

NORTON WANTS WRITE UP.
People OF That Town Would Like
J. r.. Hamilton to Do 1t.

Norton, Kan, June 2s.-An effort
is being made by the people of Nor
ton to get John r. Hamilton to write
the history of Norton county for pub
LEGATION. No man is more familiar
with the stirring events of the settle
ment and development of that part of
the state than is Mr. Hamilton. He
came to Norton county in June. 1874,
locating on the townsite of Norton
when there were less than half a doz-
en- buildings. His knowledge of the
early pioneer "reminiscences of that
section would be worth reading, nor
is there a person living there more
competent to do this work than Mr..
Hamilton. He is prominent and
