HELD ON OLD CHARGE.
italian Goes to Jail for Thirty Days
After Long Eluding the Police.

Nicholi Fragile, an Italian, got a
surprise in the municipal court Tuesday
afternoon. The Italian had been ar
rested on a statutory charge and when
he was arraigned his hearing was con-
tinued until March 4th and his bail fix
ed at 5000. Fragale was getting ready
to 90 back to court when it occurred to
the chief of police thai the name was
familiar and he Logan to make a search
of the old unserved warrants IN the
municipal court. He found one all
right and it charged Fragile with as
sault and battery. The warrant had
been issued on the complaint of Lazar
Karoglanian on Oct. Z, 1913, but at
that time Fragile had managed to elude
the officers. The Italian smiled a sick
" smile when the warrant was read to
him and. he was taken back into court
and pleaded guilty to the charge He
was sentenced to thirty days in jail
and by the time he has served this
sentence the police will be ready to go
on with the other charge against him.

GOES INTO EFFECT ON MONDAY
Local Druggists Assert That it Will
Bring a Lot of Extra Work for Them
as ALI Prescriptions for Dope
Must be Copied and Filed.

Druggists in Kenosha are receiving
the blanks which are to be used in the
enforcement of the Harrison act in re-
gard to the sale of Hhabit forming
drugs and when the new federal law
goes into effect all over the country
next ~Londay the local druggists will be
ready for its enforcement
After that time large list of drugs
will be under the ban and these will be
sold only on prescription from phys
ician and even with this prescription it
will be difficult to secure them A half
dozen druggists in Kenosha who have
been interviewed insist that the en-
forcement of the law will in no way af-
feet thei- business. Many of them
claim that they have for years refused
to sell the habit forming drugs without
a prescription from a physician and
these men insist that they know Of no
users of drugs in Kenohsa We do not
have one call month for these drugs
in their commercial state, said one of
the leading druggists in the city this
morning. The only demand that we
have for these drugs is in filing pre-
scriptions Of physicians. The new law
will mean lot Of work for the pre-
scription clerks. Every time physi-
clan prescribes throat wash which
may contain little cocaine it will be
necessary for us to make copy Of this
prescription and file it with the federal
government. IF an innocent sleeping
powder were sold it must go through
the same routine. have heard that
there were many users of drugs of this
nature in Kenosha, but if such is the
fact they must buy these drugs in other
cities, for we have absolutely no Gus
toners of this kind. I don It believe
that we have a call a month for any of
these drugs. Of course people who do
use these drugs to excess would not buy
them here. They would seek to buy
them at some place where they were not
known to the clerks. The total stock of
these drugs carried in any of the stores
in Kenosha could be put in a physi-
clan IS satchel.'
It is probable that physicians in the
city will have duplicate prescription
books that they can use in prescribing
any of these drugs and that copy of
all prescriptions viii be kept by the
physicians for their own protection. It
is admitted that there has been little
increase in the demand for the habit
forming drugs in the past few days, but
this has not been sufficient to warrant
even the suggestion that users of the
drugs are laying in a supply before the
law goes into effect.

SISTER SENDS LETTER TO CITY
Indsq les Sha has a. Knowledge of the
Strange Disappearance of Edward j..
Gormley from Kenosha in August of
Last Year.-Police Take Up Problem.

An echo of the strange disappearance
of Edward j. Gormley from Kenosha in
August of last year has been heard as
a result of a letter received from Mrs.
Erwin Stimmel sister of the missing
man, who resides at Clintonville, Ohio,
and who has asked that an effort be
made to furnish her some further infor-
nation in regard to the case. At the
time of his disappearance on the night
Of August 28th, 1914, Gormley was en-
ployed as a bookkeeper and general
clerk in the offices of the Ell. Petit
Mailing Company. Several months pre-
vious to this the Offices Of the company
had been robbed Of a large sum of
money and Gormley had been the hero
of the robbery. He was assaulted and
badly beaten by the men who were al
legged to have robbed the safe of tho
company. no suspicion attached to
Gormley in connection with the case
but he declared to his friends that he
was being bounded by the police.
The letter to the former employers
of Gormley in Kenosha sent by the sis
ter seems to indicate that she had not
been advised of his strange disappear
ance from Kenosha. In her letter she
asks if he is still employed by the COM
pany and if he is not, where he can be
located. Friends of Gormley after his
disappearance sent letter to his moth
er, who was supposed to be living in
Columbus, Ohio, but no answer to this
letter was received and nothing was
ever heard from any of the relatives of
Gormley relative to the matter. CORN
ley formerly lived at Stockport, Ohio,
but after he came Kenosha several
years ago the members of his family
removed to Columbus and they are sup
posed to have lived there since that
time. In her letter the sister makes no
mention of the disappearance of CORN
ley, but seems to be of the opinion that
he is still employed in Kenosha
At the time Gormley disappeared
from Kenosha he left a note addressed
to a young woman in which he init
mated that he was planning to commit
suicide. Local police officers have new
er been of the opinion that the man did
commit suicide and they believe that he
is still in the land of the living. They
will take the matter up with his rela-
tives in Ohio in an effort to solve the
old mystery. 1t is declared that while
Gormley had many friends in Kenosha
not one Of them has ever had word
from him since he disappeared. Even
the young woman to whom the note
was addressed has received no word
from him. 1t is thought just possible
that the relatives in Ohio may have
heard from Gormley from some other
place and that for this reason they are
seeking to learn why he left Kenosha

SEEK MURDERER HERE.
T. Balisrreari, Milwaukee italian, Who
Killed Fellow Countryman Sought Here

The police of Kenosha received a
telephone message from Milwaukee late
Tuesday night asking them to watch
all trains coming into Kenosha and
make an effort te arrest Thomas Balls
treari, who is wanted on charge of
murder in that city. The Italian shot
and ,1illed fellow Italian in a saloon
brawl at Milwaukee just after seven
'clock Tuesday evening and managed
to make his escape. The murder was
committed in saloon near the North
Western Railway station and the Mil
waukee> police officers claim that the
murderer managed to catch train go
ing south out of Milwaukee. Detec-
tives were sent as far south as Racine
but they got no track of the fellow and
it is thought that he is In Kenosha.
The police made the usual rounds of
the italian quarter here with the usual
result.

Vernon Smith young Englishman
who is demonstrating in the Boles sec
ton, was thrown from his horse the
first of the week and seriously injured.
His condition is such that his recovery
is doubtful and an effort is being made
to get in communication with his rel
atives who as far as is known by friends
in this country reside somewhere in
England.
Frank Wyatt and George Behean,
two well known river stoekmen, came
out to the prairie last week and receiv-
ed consignment of fine, young bulls
from the herd of August Schroeder of
near Keuterville. The "white faces
seems to be favorites with the stock
men who have been making an extra ef-
fort during the past years to breed up
their cattle.
Frank Hogan, who is now ranching
on Salmon river, came up Friday and
remained several days. Frank has been
down on the river close to five years
now and says he would not go back to
his original trade, barbering for the best
kind of a shop. There is more money
and better health in ranching than any
thing he has ever embarked in and
from all reports Hogan is coming out of
the river country some of these days
with comfortable fortune.
! J. w. Wilson, the staunch old Mis-
souri, democrat who lives out in the
Lake country, was among the ranchers
in town Saturday. He says crop pros
poets were never better and there is
every reason for the prediction of an
abundance of wealth on the prairie this
fall. While Mr.. Wilson is an extensive
farmer he dabbles little in the dairy
business and from six cows is sell
ing ten gallons of cream besides max
ing all the butter necessary for the
ranch.

Saturday every drop of gasoline in
Grangeville was sold out, the increased
number of cars on the Prairie making
the demand far ahead of the usual
supply. However, this trouble need
not be looked for in the future as ar
rangements are now being made for
larger quantities in the future.
Mrs. G. J. Wright of Whitebird, who
is suffering from severe attack of APP
pendicitis, was brought out from the
river town yesterday to Grangeville
and just as soon as it is possible to con-
tinue the journey, she will be taken to
either Lewiston or Spokane for further
examination. 1t is the sincere hope of
the many friends of the Wrights that a
thorough examination will find that an
operation is not necessary and her
| recovery will be rapid.
Roy Nail disposed of two Fords the
last of the week, Doctor Slusser taking
one and the other going to N. Stan
dorff, a well-to-do farmer living be-

Doctor, while never having hold of a
wheel before, after lesson or two
drove his machine like an old-timer at
the business and is considered SO eff
cient that his most timid friends are
now perfectly willing to accompany
him.

READY-TO-wEAR
JUST WHY.

When any part of watch gets on.
of order it affects the working of all
the other parts. The same reasoning
can be justly applied to your body to a
certain extent, but the wise originator
SO supplied your organs that if some
one was over-strained the other would
assist by allowing the weak organ to
obtain strength from them. The rule
seems to apply in the body. One for all
and all for one. When you get to that
point where you see that your body is
like watch and that when one organ
is affected the others become in
sympathy, and the whole organs weak
ened because of the one organ being
defective or stunted-then you will
understand how that a small, uncon-
scious eye defect can set up a nerve ir-
ritation that will react ON the whole
nervous system. When we find any
part of the system requiring an excess
of nerve energy some other parts suf-
fer in consequence and NATURE hoists
her danger signal of pain in the part
that is deprived of its due share. When
the eyes need attention NATURE
usually informs us by any of the fol
lowing symptoms: Headache, Dizzy
Spells, Smarting or Aching eyes, liz
ability to use the eyes for long periods
to read, sew or do other CLOSE work
If you have any of the above symptoms
you should heed them and have your
eyes examined for defects.

Vanouished One Time.

"Pat," the Irishman, usually comes
out victorious, but he and about nine
hundred of his fellows were vanquished
the other day when they planned to
embark from Liverpool for America in
order to escape enlistment in the
English army. Ignoring the cries OF
Coward" Traitor, and refusing to
heed the appeals of the recruiting Off
GERS. the Irishmen marched to the dock,
where, to their disappointment and
humiliation, they were refused passage.
The fremen of the steamship threat
ened to strike if the fleeing men were
taken aboard, hence the company had
to refuse to transport all able-bodled
English subjects OF military age. Al
ter finding themselves thus vangulshed,
it is quite probable that what Pat
and his fellow countrymen said would
not be printable: To add to their hu-
initiation, several lrishmen were knock
ed down by women in their efforts to
decorate the men with white feathers.
We believe we prefer the bullets to
such plight.

Demonstration by the Lawlessness.

Recently the mayor of Chicago mus
tered sufficient courage to order all sa-
looms closed on Sunday. Hitherto for
the past score of years and more
than. 1900 saloons in Chicago had vlo-
lated the Sunday-closing ordinance.
Last Sunday demonstration was made
by the saloon keepers and their friends
against the Sunday closing. A pageant
of more than 100000 persons passed
through the main streets of the city
and the mayor was invited to review
the parade. He very properly declined
to give sanction to this disrespect for
law.
According to dispatch from Chicago
the demonstration was conducted by
foreigners, being "under the direction
of the United Societies for Local Self
Government, an organization compris-
ing s25 American, German, Lithuanian,
Italian, Bohemian, Polish, Roumanian,
Jewish, Croatian, Swedish, Swiss, Dan
ish, Norwegian, Irish and Austro-Hun-
garian subsidiary societies.
"Ohicers of the United Societies said
1O1, ,47O persons participated, 32,s3O op
foot and 6S, $40 in vehicles. Those on
foot marched ten abreast, paralleling
at first double line Of automobiles
and horse-drrwn vehicles. 1t required
more than two hours for the pedes-
trisns to pass the reviewing stand in
Grant Park.
A''The marchers were grouped by
races, and many wore the brilliant cos
tunes of their native lands. By the
side of each division rode the women of
the same race, many also in national
costumes. !"
SThis demonstration against law and
order by the foreign element of Chicago
shows what problem large cities have
in dealing with the undesirable class of
people who flock to America from al
parts of the old country. After the
European war closes it is probable that
the influx will be greater, unless more
stringent laws are passed regulating
immigration. Of course. there are
notable exceptions. Not all foreigners
are bad. Some of them make good cit
zens, but the vast majority are a men
ace to our government.
