looking for he cried. He is the thief
that has been prowling around here
lately. With that he struck me forci-
bly, in the face. I broke away and
started to run across the track. Just

have tainted. The next I remember is
when they carried me aboard the train"
The gardeners mind is clouded on
numerous subjects.

ILLINOIS SENATOR
ACCUSED PERJURER
State Senator D. w. HoItSlaW In
diCted Following Bribery In
vestigation by Grand Jury

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, May 27.-An In
dictment for perjury was returned late
tonight against State Senator d. w.
FIoltslaw, a Democrat of Iuka The In
dictment was returned by the Sanga-
mon county grand jury, which Is prob
ing alleged bribery in the Illinois legis-
lature. This is the first indictment re-
turned by that body
1t is based on the testimony of Sen
ator Holtslaw that he did not know
and had never arranged for meeting
between ]. w. Knox of Chicago, rep
resenting the Derby Desk company OF
Boston, which, although the lowest
bidder on the contract to supply the
house and senate with furniture, dld
not secure the contract.
After Holtslaw had denied having
knowledge of an arranged meeting
with Knox States Attorney Burke pro-
duced a letter alleged to have been
written by Holtslaw to Knox at Iuka
January Is, 1910, in which the senator
stated "it has been arranged that |
should see you," and fixing Springfield
as the place of meeting.
The register of the st. Nicholas hotel
in Springfield was brought before the
Jurors, who compared Senator Holts-
laws signature on it with that upon
the letter. They were said to be iden-
teal.
More indictments are promised to-
morrow with the names of two other
members of the senate mentioned as
possibilities.
Senator Holtslaw had just returned
from church missionary convention
In Baltimore which he attended as a
delegate from Illinois. He is director
in several banks. He was one of the
Democrats who voted for Lorimer, stat
ing he did so to disrupt the Republi-
can party.

Prison Sentence Given Harry
Dewey Is Set Aside

SEATTLE, May 27,-In the superior
court today an order was issued setting
aside the conviction and sentence of
Harry Dewey, recently tried and con-
victed of holding up the grocery store
of Dan S. Lyppes in this city last De-
cember g. Four men entered the store,
bound the proprietor and customers
and robbed the safe Of several hundred
dollars. Dewey was arrested, and
Lyppes was so positive in his identifi-
cation that the prisoner was convicted
and sentenced to prison.
Dewey protested that he was in Port
land on the night of the robbery, but
Mis- unsupported word did not establish
an alibi Two weeks ago Edward Bush
and Harry Crawford, arraigned for par
ticipation in the Lyppes robbery, asked
leave to speak In court, and made con-
fessions exonerating Dewey. They said
they were thieves, but would not let an
innocent man go to prison.

Unscrupulous dealers, mindful only of

of their patrons, are offering for sale low
grade mixtures, which they tell you are 'as
good as" DuAy's Pure Malt Whiskey.
Some go SO far as to try to make you be-
lieve it is Duhys Pure Malt Whiskey. These
cheap concoctions are foisted on the people
with the intent to deceive.
When remedy has been before the public
for more than ha1fa century, has been pre-
scribed and used by the best doctors and in
prominent hospitals, and has carried the
blessing of health into so many thousands OF
homes as Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has,
limitations are bound to arise. They may

ment in San Francisco
Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, May 27. Governor
Thomas r. Marshall of Indiana, ad-
dressing the annual convention or the
Presbyterian brotherhood Of Chlcago,
last night, said he taught the Bible
class in Indianapolis from the Interna-
tional Book of Sunday School Lessons
which, he declared, are so incoherently
arranged that they "hop around like
the chameleon which killed itself try
ing to make good on a Scotch plaid"
He found fault with the Christian
church because it does not take its
responsibilities straight enough. lie
said If every Presbyterian in the world
was convinced that the redemption OF
the world rested upon his soul, the
world would be saved in twenty-five
years.
He criticised "old time religion" be-
cause it made men put in too much
time trying to save their own souls"
a form of selfishness which he thought
would be abolished If men devoted
more attention to other mems souls:
Governor Marshalls appeal for mill
tant methods in the church was pre-
ceded by the adoption of resolutions
calling upon Governor Gillett of Cali
fornia to suppress the Jeffries-Johnson
prize fight
The telegram which was ordered sent
to the California executive is as fol-
lows
1--WE, the business men of Chicago
brotherhood, in the name of all that
stands for true and manly sport in
America, respectfully urge upon you
the prevention of the Jeffries-Johnson
prize fight or so-called boxing match.
BY so doing your great power as gov
ernor will be exerted for its highest
purpose, clean sports encouraged, the
baneful influence of moving pictures
Of fighting bouts prevented, and the
honor of your great state upheld in the
minds of all good citizens of the ma
tion."
