CAUSE | NANY ARRESTS | Warrants Served Upon Prominent Citizens of Colorado. —— | GEORGETOWN, Colo., Aug. 11.—The | warrants issued against members of the | Idaho Springs Citizens' Protective League by order of Judge Frank Owsrs of the District Court upon application of the at- | torneys of the Western Federatfon of Miners were served to-day upon forty- seven members of the league at Idaho Springs and they were brought before Judge Owers in this city. After a brief hearing they were placed under bonds to keep the peace and notified to hold them- selves in readiness to appear before Judge Owers on notice. These warrants were | tssued as a result of the expulsion from Idaho Springs of a number of union miners after the blowing up of the build- ing of the Sun and Moon mine recently. Altogether more than eighty warrants were issued, but only forty-seven were served to-day. Among those who a vered to warrants to-day were the Mayor pro tem. of Idaho Don’t you know Schilling’s | springe, members of the Councti, the City Best tea wpices soda baking-powder flavoring extracts Attorney, the City Marshal, the postmas- ter, presidents of banks and leading mer- chants and mine operators.

Henley's story Wwas_corroborated in every detall by Mrs. Henley, who was present almost at the beginning of the trouble. Lafferty, even after. having been told that he could not live, was very bitter | against his son-in-law, and was in so un- torgiving a frame of mind that he signed | a complaint against Henley, charging him | with assault to commit murder. The statement he made of the affair differs | from that of the Henleys, but in the main points is substantially the same. He sald: | I fed my horses this morning and then went upstairsy to my room. Henley followed and said infla threatening way: “‘What did you mean by saying I would leave this place be- fore you?" I told him 1 didn't say it.

Decision Is of Great Interest to Cities of the Fifth Class. Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. 11.—A deci- slon which is of great Interest to citfes of the fifth cldss throughout the State was rendered here to-day in the habeas corpus proceedings which were recently instituted by M. A. Pace, president of clation, who had been arrested for re- fusing to take out a license under the terms of a taxing ordinance adopted last month by the Board of City Trustees. The ordinance which Pace violated is one passed to secure much needed reve- nue for city improvements and provides for a special license tax on more than fifty business trades, including the gro- cery business. The merchants rebelled at the idea of restoring a depleted treas- ury by megns of special taxation and they retained attorneys to break the ordi- nance. A bitter contest followed and in the decision rendered to-day the ordinance is declared to be invalid. It was decided that a municipality of the class in which San Bernardino finds herself cannot tax a business for revenue only. The main contentlon'®f counsel for the Grocers’ Assoclation was that a business DRE. KILMER'S SWAMP-ROOT. B s e g e Mess v s 2 B HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the kidneys; if it stains the linen it is evidence of kidney frouble; too frequv:nt desire to pass fit, or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer’'s Swamp- Root, the great kidney and bladder rem- edy, fulfills every wish In curing rheuma- tism, pain in the back, Kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold wa- ter and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasdnt ne- cessity of teing compelled to go often dur- ing the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the ex- traordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists in ffty- cent and one-dollar sizes. You may have a sample bottle of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, | and a book that tells all about it, both sent absolutely free by mail.

Spaulding, aged about 45 years, an enthusiastic automobilist from West Or- ange, N. J., rode to his death four miles east of this village this afternoon. He was on the towpath of the Erie Canal. Owing to the muddy condition of the path and while turning out for a lineman's rig, his automobile swerved more than he intended and man and machine plunged into the water. Two linemen rushed to ald Spaulding, but in their excitement, let go entirely of a rope, one end of which they had thrown to the drowning man. The body was recovered badly entangled in the rope which had been thrown him. Mr. Spaulding was en route to Chicago and met with an accident one week ago to-day that kept him in Amsterdam for repairs until this afternoon. Meantime his traveling companions, his wife and her mother, had gone on to Syracuse, where they were waiting in order to continue the journey with him. Spaulding was a veteran automobilist, and at Amsterdam yesterday was advised that, owing to the dargerous condition of the roads he should at ieast ship his auto- mobile to Syracuse. Mr. Bpaulding re- plied that he considered himself equal to the difficulties before him, and continued his journey. \ ————— possible value for the money. for your boy. out with silesia. seats and all alike for the one price.
