Not Guilty of Murder

A verdict of not guilty was re. turned last Friday by a jury in the United States district court at Prescott in the murder trial i of Ashley Wilson. E. Nash and D. M. Robertson, employees of the Western Navajo Indian Res ervation, in northeastern Ari- zona for the shooting last Jan uary of Taddy Tin, an Indian, on the reservation. The shoot ing almost caused an uprising of the Navajos.
 The defense introduced evi- dence to show that Tin drew a revolver and resisisted when the three men went to serve a war rant for his arrest on charge of stealing horses from the Hopi Indians. During the struggle with the Indians three shots were fired, the third bullet kill ing Tin, according to the testi- mony.
 Walter Runke, superintendent of the reservation, who also was indicted in connection with the killing. was arrested Saturday on a charge of perjury in con- nection with his testimony at the trial Friday. Runke said the charge was absurd

How Catarrh is Contracted

AAOO NAIuIIH IS SOtLIOCLS0
 Mothers are sometimes so thoughtess as to neglect the colds which their children contract. The inflammation of the mucus membrane, at first acute, be- comes chronic and the child has chronic catarrh, a disease that is seldom cured and that may prove a life's burden. Many persons who have this disease will remember having had frequent colds at the time it was contracted. A little forethought, a bottle of Chamberlain's cough remedy judiciously used. and all this trouble might have been avoided. Obtainable everywhere.

period in Great Britain and Ireland there were
but 1854 trespassers killed and injured. OF
course the mileage Of American railroads is much
greater but it is nevertheless true that the Brit
ish railways traverse more densely populated
and contested territory than most Of our Ameri-
can railways.
To the uniformed, it will probably be sur
prising information to know that more than 50
per cent Of persons killed on American railroads
are trespassers and that ordinarily there are on
our railroads three times as many trespassers
killed each year as there are railroad employees
killed This annual needless killing of more than
5000 American citizens and the injuring serious
~ of an equal number, mostly wage earners, can
only be prevented by the cooperation of the pub
lie and public officials.

Preventible Deaths.

The New York Central railroad has worked
out statistics showing how negligence on the part
of trespassers is responsible for the large number
of deaths on American railroads. It points out
that large number of women and children are
counted in the list. The greater part Of the
deaths is not found among the railroad employees
but among men, women and children who have
trespassed on railroad property. The statement
Of the New York Central follows:
During twenty years ending in 1912 there were
B6733 trespassers killed and 94,546 injured on
the railways of the United States. Careful in
vestigation has shown that the majority of per-
sons thus killed and injured are citizens living in
the vicinity of the accident and that many are
women and children. From 1901 to 1910 there
were approximately $4,000 children under four
teen years of age killed and injured while tres
passing on railroads in the United States, enough
to make nile-post for every mile halfway
around the world. There were 10000 between
the ages of ID and 81 years killed during that
same period, making $4,000 minors, who were vic
Tins of this evil. During ten years ending in
1910, there were 103,452 trespassers killed and
injured in the United States, while for the same

Once upon a time there was King
who had a daughter, who was very
beautiful, but when suitors came te
ask for her hand in marriage she turn
ed away her head and said with scorn
that none Of them were good enough
for her; that the one who wed he,
must be able to climb high noun
tain, where lived terrible dragon
with tail of feathers, and she must
have three feathers from the tail OF
this fierce dragon brought to her by
him who wished to wed her.
AS this was very dangerous thing
to do, all the suitors who came went
away without even trying to get the
feathers from the dragons tail. One
day, however, there came to the pal.
ace, riding on a black horse, a hand.
some Prince, who said he would try
to get the feathers for the Princess,
not because he wished to marry her,
but because he could not bear to hear
lady wish for anything without try
ing to crafty her wish.
This made the scornful Princess
look at the Prince with kindly eyes,
and she even said she would marry
him if he did not bring back the
feathers.
But the Prince said he did not wish
to marry, he only wanted to get the
thing for which she wished.
So off he went to the mountain
and his powerful black horse, after
hard climbing. reached the top.
Out came the dragon waving his
xoS 80 o. hon Ill Nd yx{f h
anger and showing his teeth and
tongue in threatening manner, but
the Prince could not be frightened; he
drew his sword and dashed toward the
monster, Staying him with one blow.
Then the Prince jumped from his
horse and pulled from the tail of the
dragon the three feathers for which
the Princess had wished and mount
ed his horse to ride down the noun
tain.
Suddenly roaring sound like dis
tant thunder came to his ears, and
then a bright flash came before his
eyes, and when 1t cleared the Prince
saw in the opening OF cave beau
tiful girl dressed in flowing white
robe. The Prince jumped from his
horse and went to her who are your"
he asked. and how did you get on top
Of this high mountain"
Il am aSprincess that the dragon
stole when l was very little child,
and here I should have staid II some
one had not slain the dragon. Did
you do it?"" she asked.
The Prince fell in love with her at
once she was so beautiful. and told
her he was glad to say he had killed
the dreadful creature and would take
her to her home.
So he put the Princess on the horse
in front of him and rode down the
and to the palace of the
Princess who wanted the three feath-
ers. When the Princess saw the
Prince she went out to meet him, for
she could see the feathers waving
from his cap. where he had placed
them, and she felt sure he intended to
marry her, else why should he have
taken the risk.
When she came up to the Prince
and saw the beautiful girl he had on
the horse with him. she grew very
angry, for the new Princess was much |
more beautiful than she was, and the |
Princess knew she had lost
