This coupled with train sickness ag-
gravated by the lack of proper rest
and nourishment, evidently proved
to be too much for the mental facul-
ties of the 62-year-old woman, and
she gave way under the strain.
The husband expressed great
surprise at her possession of the
pistol stating that he had never
seen the gun before.
Lodged in the county jail, Mrs.
Wahldenadt gave every evidence of
being insane, claiming that she shot
the man for having spoken to her
on the train the night before. This
was entirely impossible, as Mr.. Old
tree had gotten on the train at Salt
Lake City yesterday morning and
had never seen the woman before.
just what will be done with the
woman, who is undoubtedly insane,
is not known by the local authorities
as yet.

that africa chiefly valuable seaport for Bolivia
It is of comparative little value either to Chile or
Peru both of which countries have ample coast line,
Chile 35 degrees and Peru Is degrees without

For nearly forty years Chile and Peru have not

They would have common border line.
Pot entially, Bolivia is of the great countries
of South America. She contains more than 100000
square miles of territory with immense, but almost
untouched agricultural and mineral resources. She
has outlet the great world except through some
other country, though she has been begging for a

It would be happy solution of the troubles OF

Fairbanks Good Fortune.

Fairbanks papers just received reflect the new era
established in that region by the completion OF the

men working its placer properties in winter but
the community has developed hope and optm-
tism pervades the entire region.
Trains operating regularly between Fairbanks
and the Alaskan Freight passenger and express

camp, and trains operating steadily, giving the
Fairbanks district and the several hundred miles of

The general business created by the advent of the

1t is somewhat refreshing and unique to see ad-
vertisements in the Fairbanks paper announcing
bananas in the Fairbanks market in the winter

HEARST AND HYLAN WORRYING NEW
YORK DEMOCRATS.

That William h. Hearst and Mayor IIyan will at
tempt to capture the Democratic Party convention in
New York this year is feared by the Independent
Democrats of New York City and State. 1t is said,
Also that Leader Murphy OF Tammany is endeavoring
10 head off the possibility. though he has been com
mtted both Hearst and Hylan in municipal cleo
lions in New York to such extent that it is
feared his hands tied.
The New York Evening Post declares that Mayor
Hylan will be a candidate for the nomination for
Governor in the event Governor Miller should remove
him from office of Mayor, otherwise that he will
declare for Hearst. The Post says Hylan would like
Hearst nominated for Governor and former
GOV AL Smith nominated United States Senator,
though he admits former Governor Smith may refuse
the ticket with the newspaper pub
Usher on account of the bitterness of their past
differences.
In the meantime Murphy and the more powerful
of the Tammany leaders said be favorable to
the plan of the Independent Democrats to make AL
Smith leader and the candidate for either Gov
or Senator he may elect, though they would
prefer that he for Governor.
Independent Democrats suggesting many other
names for Senator Governor in former Gov
Smith continues refuse to take the leadership
himself. Among them John w. Davis former
United States Ambassador to Great Britain Augustus
Thomas the playwright, Bernard NJ Baruch, the
fnancer, Samuel Untermeyer the famous lawyer,
James w Gerard, former Ambassador to Germany,
Bird S. Coler former City Controller, Franklin d.
Roosevelt, Mayor Lunn of Schenectady and others.
Leader Murphy is very sorey perpexed by the
situation according all the He does not
want Hearst they think, as a candidate yet he feels
that he cannot afford to break with him.
If Hearst should be the Democratic nominee the
Independent papers New York, such IS the Times
the World and the Post, which usually support Demo
cratic nominees, would unquestionaby support
Miller for reelection, should the Republicans re-
nominate him. While that would be
mountable difficulty if it municipal contest

THOUSANDS HAVE KIDNEY
TROUBLE AND NEVER

Applicants For Insurance Often
Rejected

Judging from reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is one
preparation that has been very sue
cessful in overcoming these condi-
lions. The mild and healing In
fluence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root

est for its remarkable record of sue

An examining physician for one
of the prominent Life Insurance
Companies, In an interview of the
subject, made the astonishing state
ment that one reason why SO many
applicants for insurance are reject

not even suspect that they have the

A sworn statement by Summers

cording to her version, Ford was

fix him so that he would not steal
any more stills. He asked her to
leave the house, as she was too frail
to witness the killing. She started
out and heard her husband strike
Ford with the axe. She went back
into the room an d saw him strike
Ford a second time with the axe.
She plead with her husband not to
kill Ford, she said, but to no avail.
