not, It will come up at the January

The northeastern storm has moved
from upper Michigan TO the coast of
Maine, causing showers in the eastern
portion of the lake region, the st. Law

western high. with its low tempera-

valley to the lake region. Rains in
the southern plateau states, on the
eastern Rocky mountain slope and in
the Missouri valley, with higher tenn
peratures over most of the eastern
Rocky mountain slope, have resulted
from the western barometric depres-

WHEN HER BACK ACHES
A Woman Finds All Her Energy and
Ambition Slipping Away.

Rock Island women know how the
aches and pains that come when the
kidneys fail make life a burden.
Backache, hip pains, headache, dizzy
spells, distressing urinary troubles,
all tell of sick kidneys and warn you
of the stealthy approach of dropsy
or Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney
Pills are for the kidneys only. They
attack kidney diseases by striking
at the cause Here's proof of it in
a Rock Island woman's words:
Mrs. X. Peterson, 1906 Third
avenue, Rock Island, H., says: Il
bIieve that hard work and overexer-
ton weakened my kidneys. l suf-
fered from severe pains across the
small of my back and on this account
it was difficult for me to stOop or
lift When l arose in the morning
l was very stiff and lame and my
back was weak l had often read
about Doan's Kidney Pills in the To-
cal papers and a short time ago l
got a box at the Harper house phar-
macy. They brought prompt relief.

convinces States Attorney Emerson
that the prisoners defense will be a
plea of insanity at his trial. He al
ternately moaned and covered his head
in bed, then talked and shouted hys-
terically to persons who visited him
in jail. He spent a restless night.
Oregon, Ill, Oct. 5.-A "brainstorm"
defense-one of the old mainstays of
the criminal lawyer-was prepared for
DR.. Henry Elgin Webster, confessed
bigamist and uxoricide, as the case
against him was taken into the Ogle
county courts yesterday.
That the young inferno was suffer
ing from an attack of emotional insan-
ity when he slashed Bessie Kent Web
ster to death in the woods near Dixon,
Ill, probably will be the contention
of Attorney John E Erwin, who has
been retained by Webster's parents to
direct the defense.
DR.. Webster was formally arraigned
before Judge Oscar E. Heard at 4
o'clock in the afternoon. Attorney Err
wins request for time was granted,
and the defense will not plead or at
tack the Indictment until Monday. The
inferno marched jauntily from jail to
court house. He was in good spirits
and chatted in friendly tone with Sher-
if w. P. Delaney and Deputy w. D.
Mackie. his official escorts.
GRAND JURY INDICTs INFERNO.
The Indictment that shifted the scene
from Jail to court was returned by the
grand jury at 3 o'clock. 1t contained
four counts and named the victim both
as Bessie Kent Webster and Bessie
Kent. A distinction also was made in
the counts as to the weapon used by
the slayer. 1t was referred to as
knife and as SHARP instrument"
The arrival of Attorney Erwin, whom
he has known since childhood, had
much to do with the change in Web
ster's demeanor. Tuesday night he
said that. if his legal wife, Mrs. Zoe
Farney Webster, was to desert him he
would welcome the haugman. Yester-
day, though no word came from the
woman, the inferno only smiled and
shook his head when asked about her.
Webster evidently was relieved when
the case had been entered on the rec
ords. His attitude toward newspaper
photographers showed this. On the
way TO the court room he covered his
face with his hands and lodged for
shelter. When he emerged he was
smiling and posed willingly for the
camera men.
