The men perished in attempting to cross the waste area that stretches a dis- tance of eighty miles from Las Vegas to the California line, In most instances the bodies have been partly eaten by coyotes and buzzards to such an extent as to be beyond recognition, The majority of the victims were railroad laborers. The thirty bodies just reported were all found within a radius of one- quarter of a mile around ‘dead man’s well,” the only water in the entire desert.

Kangas City Times, While all the rest of the Democratic politicians who are looking for places on the state ticket are anxious, Sam B, Cook occupies a peculiar position A few days ago the State Editorial association met in St. Louis. In the crowd at the Laclede hotel three candidates for governor were work ing among their friends. There was considerable evidence of feeling be- tween the gubernatorial candidates, but Cook mingled with every faction, and seemed popular with them all. He has the easiest fight of anyone in the race for anything on the ticket, for every candidate for governor wants him on the ticket for the bene- fit of his information and general ac- quaintance. Mr. Cook isacandidate for secretary of state, and, though he has competition, it is doubtful if many people even in politics know or care who the competitor is. Cook has @ virtue rare in Missouri politics, « good deal more rare than it ought to be. He “stands pat,” neverturns and never forgets a good turn.

Fame TWO MISSOURI SLAYERS TO DIE The Sentences of a Union Bank Robber and a Child Mur- derer Confirmed. Jefferson City, Mo., February 1 — Division No, 2 of the supreme court met at 11 o'clock and affirmed the judgment of murder in the first de- gree against James Brown of Jack- son county and Frederick Lewis, alias Frederick Collins of Franklin county, and fixed March 11 as the date forexecuting the death sentences of Brown and Collins, Lewis, alias Collins, is the Union bank robber, who murdered Charles J. Schumacher a detective, at the Rudolph home in Franklin county, January 24, 1903, in resisting arrest. Rudolph was accused of complici- ty in the killing. Collins and Ru- dolph were capturd laterin Hartford Jonn., but Rudolph escaped from the St. Louis city jail before he was tried and is now a fugitive from jus- tice. Collins was tried and convicted by the Franklin county circuit court last summer and sentenced to death. He appealed from that judgment to the supreme court where his case was decided to day and the death sen- tence affirmed. Brown killed Laura Hibler, his 14- year old stepdaughter, with a club because she refused to obey his com- mands. The girl was out late the night before the killing and the next morning Brown requested the girl to rise. She refused and he killed her.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis- courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kid- neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent Y) that it is not uncommon for a child to be born neys. Ifthe child urin- : ates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis- erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and. both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
