Insurgent Chief Laid Low by Girl Habit Victor Murdock In Hospital. Alas, the vice of the pompadoured shop-girl, and the be-puffed lady typewriter has conquered one of those surging tpirits whose strength con stituted the backbone of the big fight of the last congress. For "Vic' Murdock, the heavyweight, red headed, jovial leader of the house In surgents, who halls from Kansas, Is down In a Wichita sanitarium with an insurgent stomach and the doc tors diagnose It "chewlng-gumltis." For Murdock, for some years has been one of the chief ultimate con sumers of chicle. When his jaws were not working over some loud and lurid blast at "Uncle Joe" Cannon, the "Czar of the house" he could al ways be found masticating a good sized cud of gum. Murdock explain' ed that ne contracted the gum habit In an effort to avoid the tobacco hab it ana he didn't know which was worse. The Insurgent leader waa at cne time an Inveterate smoker, and In endeavoring to find a suitable sub stitute for cigars, when his doctors told him he would have to quit, he took up chewing gum. But he chewed a few too many. Perhaps he swallowed a few small but thoroughly efficient chunks of sweet scented chicle. Anyway when his stomach began doing acrobatic stunts early in the winter, the doctor declared it waa serious, and forbade gum, shipping the "Red Terror" of Kansas back home for a spell. Murdock is recovering rapidly, and he is now searching for a substitute for chewing gum. NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST ; ......,. B. C. Knocks Out Saloons. Greenwood, B. C.
