New York, Nov. 90 A bullish
view of the new differences establish

was heavy realizing as well as some

New York, Nov. 20.-One Of the most

dared to break up the fight.
Gangsters crouched behind trees, ASH

fire on the clubhouse. Men within

whistles for aid.
When the revolvers were emptied the

INDIANS ON THE WARPATH
TROOPS TO The Scene
Serious Trouble In New Mex.
leo Feared

Pennington, N. M, Nov. 20.-Ths
four hundred renegade Navajo In
dams encamped on Beautiful Noun
tain, IS miles southwest of the Ship
rock agency, sang war songs and
danced around council fires all night,
while sentries stood watch at the
many signal fires which fringed the
northeastern side of the mesa.
Extra precautions were taken at
the agency against the surprise of q.
night attack by the followers of Chief
Besho She, who has been wrought
almost to state of frenzy by their
medicine men. w. T. Shelton, Indian
agent, and his Indian police, who are
still faithful today began prepara-
tons to renew overtures to the abor-
igines. Gs
Traders and settlers on the reser-
walton have become frightened and
have appealed to Agent Shelton for
protection.
The other Indians of the reserva-
ton, about 1900, have given no init
nation as to where their sympathies
lie 1t is upon the coming of troops
and General Hugh Scott that the
officials and the settlers base their
hopes that bloodshed may yet be
averted.
There are many at the settlement,
however, who express anxiety over
the reception which the Indians will
give the troops. Some fear that the
renegades may offer armed resistance
to the troops. -

SKIN ERUPTIONS
Evidence of Impure Blood and n Run.
Down Condition

When the blood becomes thin, poor
devitalized nature cries out through
such external evidence for help, and
the safest, surest and most helpful
remedy we know is Vinol.
This is because it is a combination
of the two most world famed tonics-
the medicinal curative elements of cod
liver oil without the oil) and tonic
iron for the blood. Vinol strengthens
the digestive organs creates a hearty
appetite, purifies and enriches the
blood, creates strength.
Mrs. Helen Wingate, st. Louis, Mo
says: Il was in very poor health, ner-
vous and rundown, and nothing in the
way of medicine did me any good until
my druggist recommended vinol. II
built up my health, restored strength
and feel that I owe my life to Vinol
/ cannot praise it too highly"
We say positively there is nothing
like Vinol to purify and enrich thu
blood and build up weak, rundown
people. II it should fail in your case
we will return your money. Hooks
