KANSANS LYNCH White
SLAYER AGED COUPLE
Continued from page one.)

bodies of Muller and his wife were
found and burn him there.
few minutes after the mob had
departed Sheriff Carroll, who had
been left at the Jail, and other Of
ficials, cut down Dudley's body.
Dudley was to have been sentenced
today, as Sheriff Carroll feared mob
might attempt to take him, and was
to have him taken to the state peni-
tertiary as quickly as possible. His
prison record extended back several
years.
81 was unable to identify any one, "
Sheriff Carroll said. every one was
masked. i have talked to several
persons who watched the mob and
they were unable to identify any of
them"
Sheriff Carroll said he fired five
shots before being overpowered final
ly.
"They tried to choke me into tell
ing where the keys were hidden" he
said. 'But my wife had them hid up
stairs and l refused to tell Them
Sheriff's Wife, Heroine.
Mrs Carroll is the heroine of the
lynching. Not only did she secret the
keys but she also called the fire de-
partment, the under sheriff and Mar
shall Carberry. The marshal's injury,
it was given out, was not serious.
Sheriff Carroll said he thought the
mob consisted of more than $50 per-
sons. Witnesses declared, however,
the number of motor cars did not ex-
coed -.
Only one clew, and that d meager
one, as to the identity of any of the
mob has been found. It is small
card that was found tackled on the
telephone pole. It read:
"Bert Dudley was hanged by the
neck On this pole until dead, Septem-
Der 21.'
The card is supposed to have been
written by one of the lynchers, and
Sheriff Carroll said it might be pos
sible to ascertain the writer.
Another point that is being gone in
to is the failure of the fire whistle
here to blow when the department
was called. 1t was found to have
been tempered with.
Examination Of Dudley body by
physicians today showed that six bull
lets had struck aim

CALOMEL TODAY,
ESICK TOMORROW
Dose OF Nasty CalOmel Makes You
SICK and You Lose Days Work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get 50-cent bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone, which Is
a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without MAX
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauSeated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you. while if
you take Dodsons Liver Tone you will
wake up feeling great, full of ambi-
ton and ready for work or play. It's
harmless, pleasant and safe to give to
children; they like it.

BETTER BRIDGES,

Bridges should be prettier. more
ornamental" says bridge builder.
True. The old stone bridge, still
found in many of the older sections
OF the country, was substantial and
fairly pretty. But it had to give way
to the ugly steel bridge, which now
dots the country. They are found
everywhere in this country and have
never been known to improve a land
scape.
The more modern concrete bridge
combines the strength of the steel
bridge with the beauty Of the old stone
bride. They are a decided step for
ward in what may be termed rural
architecture.

SALOONS MUST CLOSE
IN ALL ELECTION DAYS

When elections are called for days
other than those named by law, under
the law saloons are required to close,
according TO the opinion of Attorney
General Pollard last night. The opin-
ion was made in connection with the
election to be held In the Seventh
Congressional District Saturday. which
is being held one month later than
the date named by law, in response
TO request of. several citizens of that
district.
When Congressman James Hay for
warded his resignation there was not
sufficient time for the Democratic
Committee to call an election for the
first Tuesday in August as prescribed
in the statute, and that body delayed
the election one mo>>th. The question
then arose as TO Whether saloons
would be required to cloAc on an cleo
ton day that was not In conformity
with the law and Mr.. Pollard has de-
clared that they are prohibited from
remaining open.
The election Saturday will culmi-
nate a three cornered fight for the
vacant seat in the House of Repre-
sentatives, in which Judge T. w Har-
rison. Senator \. B. Early and Sena-
tor H. H. Downing are participating.
