There IS more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven Catarrh to be a consti-
tutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney &
Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is the only Constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes-
timonials.

CONv|CTS LYNCH
NEGRO IN PEN
nEEPER ovERPOWERED AND
BLACK WAS SENT INTO ETER.
NIFTY SPEEDILY.

Rawlins, Wyo,, Oct. 2.--Convicts
at the Wyoming State prison today
lynched Frank Wigfall, a negro and
ex-convict, who late last night was
put in the state institution for safe
keeping. Wigfall was arrested on a
charge of attacking Mrs. Esther Hig-
gins, aged rs, last Sunday. He was
arrested at Fort Steele, fifteen miles
from here.
Mrs. Higgins, the aged victim of
the negro's attack, lived near the
state penitentiary and was favorlte
with the prisoners.
Last night a mob gathered and
made an unsuccessful attempt to
take Wigfall from the coroner's jury.
Fearing tnat the mob might return
later the officers reported to Gov
Carey at Cheyenne and received or
ders to transfer the negro to the
state prison.
Wigfall was placed in a cell on
the third floor. This morning as the
other convicts passed the cell on
their way to breakfast the negro
laughed and boasted about his deed.
This incensed the prisoners, who
quietly perfected their plans for ven
geance
After breakfast, with $50 convicts
in the prison yard, half OF them
started for the eel! house. They
overpowered the keeper. Then one
Of the convicts produced a rope
which he had secreted under his
coat A half hitch was placed around
the negros neck and he was dropped
from the cell house balcony. dis
tance of thirty feet
Wigfalls neck was broken.
The time consumed In the lynch
ing was less than five minutes, and
so quietly did the prisoners work
that none but the cell house keeper,
who was overpowered, knew what
was happening The lynchers then
returned to their work.
The first man that squeals is the
next man hanged" was the warning
whispered to all prisoners after the
lynching, according to statement
credited to Warden Aston.
Granny" Higgins, as she was
known among the prisoners, was
known for her kindness to the sick
and afflicted. She will survive.

Hundred Thousand in Nineteen Hun

in Nineteen Eight.

Washington d. c.. Oct. 81.
Pierpont Morgan testified before the
Clapp committee today that he con-
tributed $15O,OO0 to the republican
national committee in 1904.
While on the stand, Morgan tug
ged at his moustache and watched
the committee closely.
He denied that Roosevelt had de-
manded 100000 from him by tele-
phone from the white house. He said
he had never corresponded by tel
ephone, telegraph or mail with
Roosevelt or anyose at the white
house."
Morgan said he gave 100000 to
the national committee in October,
1904. and another $4,000 November
1st. His understanding being that
the latter amount was to be used
in New York state.
The only contribution he made in
1908, he said, was $4,000. Morgan
said he had made no contributions
to any campaign this year. In 1900
he said, he contributed 100000.
Morgan proved a willing witness.
He asserted that no contribution
had ever been given by his firm or
himself with the idea of receiving
any favore thereby. He was espe-
cially interested in the 1904 cam
paign. he said, solely for the well
fare OF the country and people. That
was the only interest, he said, that
had guided him in making contri-
buttons to the political PARTIES. He
said he would have contributed as
readily to the democrats had he
believed it best for the country. He
said he knew of the contributions by

THE SOUTHWEST TO BEGIN.

The surveying crew of the Ard
more & Western railroad had reach
ed as far as Woodford last night
and Col. White stated that they they
would be at Oil City by Saturday
night.
Word was received here yesterday
that Jack Winters, representing a
large construction company of Jop-
lin, Mo-, would be here by the 10th
of the month to look over the sit
uation, it is thought that the line
will be built by the company that
he represents.
When the survey is completed to
Oil City the crew will return to Ard
more and begin running the line to-
ward the southwest to Red River.
The promoters are undecided as yet
just what point will be reached in
that direction but it is thought that
the line will probably hit the town
of Leon.
The promoters are highly elated
with the progress heing made and
the people along the right of way
are Happy in as much as their dream
of railroad, SO badly needed by
them, is about to be realized.
