Mrs. Oestheimer is in the habit OF
visiting her husbands store at North
Twelfth and F street every morning.
For several mornings she has met an
italian standing in an alley in the rear
of q saloon at 600 North Twelfth
street. This man on each occasion in
suited Mrs. Oestheimer by indecent
actions. Yesterday she determined to
put a stop to this annoyance. Mrs.
Oestheimer took her husbands re-
volver and when she met the man
who had been offending her she i'm
mediately opened fire on him. AS the
terrorized foreigner took to his heels
six bullets hummed over his head.
Then Mrs. Oestheimer returned home,
fully satisfied with the effectiveness OF
the lesson she had taught the offender.

AMATEUR STATUS OF GOLF AND TENNIS
 STARS IS PROBLEM
Matter is Difficult Riddle; Ac- ton of Leaders in Opening Sport Good Stores Causes Agitation.

NEW YORK-The question of the
 amateur status of former golf and ten
 his champions, who have announced
 their intention of opening sporting
 goods stores in their home cities is likely to develop into thorn in the flesh of the governing bodies of these sports. Matters would be simplified
 if they were through with active com
 petition as amateurs but such is not
 the case. Mclaughlin and Bundy ex-
 pect to play in sectional an dnational tennis tournaments during the coming season and the same holds good of Francis Quimet in golf
 Coming at time when concerted effort is being made by the leading sports governing bodies of the country to raise the sandard and spirit of anna teurism in all games, the nrojects of these tennis and golf stars is a severe problem for their association to han dle. Many of the leading officials of these organizations are of the opinion that the present rules would appear to bar these prospective proprietors of sporting goods stors from further competition in amateur tournaments but 9 careful reading of the rules does not bear out this. belief. The bylaws of the United States National Lawn Tennis Association contain the follow .ir9 naragraphs:
 An amateur is one who is not con nected with the sale of tennis goods. nor with a firm manufacturing or sell ing tennis goods EXCEPT when such connection shall be of general nature in firm manufacturing or selling gen. oral athletic goods and the person SO connected has to do with tennis goods to no greater extent than any other line of goods"
 The latest code of the United States Golf A~socistion shows that the Exec rtive Committee of the Association has ruled that among other violations of the amateur golf rule is the follow ire: "Lendins ones name nr likeness for tho advertisement or sale of any, thing EXCEPT as dealer. manufac- trrer or inventor thereof in the usual conrse of business
 These are the regulations which come nearest to covering what some are inclined to consider violation of the amateur golf and tennis rules in both cases it would annear to the lav- man that the "EXCEPT" and the words following thereafter nrevent the l rules as a whole from being applied ! tc the proprietors of stores much as Bundy and Quimet pro- pose to open.

sPoRTsMANLiKE CONDUCT

An example of the present day sportsmanship in the schools and col leges is shown in the sending of a sou venir gold football to Cant. Culver of the Detroit Central High School by the Everett High School of Everett, Mass. Early in December elevens from these two high schools met at Detroit in a game for the interscholastic champion ship. The contest resulted in score less tie but Capt. Culver insisted that the Everett team be awarded the ball in view of it's fine showing. At the banquet given to the Everett eleven gold football watch charms were pre- sented to all members of the team and an extra one sent to Capt Culver in Detroit for his sportsmanlike act in insisting that the honors of the game go to Everett.

ACIDS IN STOMACH SOUR THE FOOD AND
 CAUSE INDIGESTION
''Pape's Diapepsin" Fixes Sour, Classy, Upset Stomachs
 in Five Minutes.

If what you just ate is souring on your stomach or lies like a lump of lead, refusing to digest, or you belch gas and eructate sour, undigested food, or have a feeling of dizziness, heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste in mouth and stomach headache, you can surely get relief in five minutes.
 Ask your pharmacist to show you the formula, plainly printed on these fifty-cent cases of Pape's Diapepsin, then you will understand why dys- peptic troubles of all kinds must go, and why it relieves sour, out-of-order stomachs or indigestion in five min utes. "Pape's Diapepsin" is harmless; tastes like candy, though each dose will digest and prepare for assimila- ton into the blood all the food you eat: besides, it makes you go to the table with a healthy appetite; but what will please you most, is that you will feel that your stomach and intes- tines are clean and fresh, and you will not need to resort to laxatives or liver pills for biliousness or constipation.
 This city will have many "Pape's Diapepsin" cranks,' as some people will call them, but you will be enthu- siastic about this splendid stomach too, if you ever take it for indigestion, gases, heartburn, sour ness. dyspepsia, or any stomach misery.
 Get some now, this minute, and rid of stomach misery and indi- yestion in five minutes.

SkOvGAARD AT THE
 0RPHEUM WEDNESDAY,
Celebrated Danish Violinist,
 with Metropolitan Com
 pany, will Appear in Bis bee. 2' n

4
 Bisbee will have:the pleasure of hear ing Skovgasrd the great violinist from Copenhagen. who is today without a peer as anl artist. His playing is full of temperanenf and his technique is something of'the most wonderful any body has ever heard According to the German newspapers Skovgaard can be compared very favorably with Ole Bull and Paderewski just as the selections he plays are the most deli cate compositions ever performed at any concert.
 Skovgaard never tires his audience with long classical compositions; he chooses his program in such manner that he can have an oportunity to show people. both the marvellous tone he can entice from his wonderful Stra- diyerius violin. as well as his great technique.
 The past two years have been the most successful of Skovgaard's career. He has not only captured London and Berlin with his pre-eminent perform ances of the masterpieces of the vio- lin, but the British Isles and Germany as well.
 He was brought directly from Berlin by Walter Damrosch. of the New York Symphony Orchestra, where he played a series of solos and captured the me tropolis of America.
 Skovgaard appears at the orpheum Wednesday night
