BITTER WITH CALIFORNIA
JIKS. COLTOX SAID SHE WOULD
SHAKE OFF ITS DUST.
Question of Millionairess' Domicile
Brings Out Her A user Against
Golden State.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 22.-The case in
volving the question of the legal domicile
ot Mrs. E.ien M. Colton, who died here
in February, leaving an estate of more
than a million dollars, was brought to
trial before Judge Barnard in the Dis
trict Supreme Court. In 'Mrs. Colton's
will Helen Margaret Saeher, a great
granddaushter of Mrs. Colton, was vir
tually disinherited, while the bulk of the
furiune was left to John B. Dahlgren,
w ho endeavored to have the will probated
in California. Miss Saeher is attacking
the validity of Mrs. Colton's will, claim
intz one-hnlf of the estate.
The first step in the case is to estab
lish the domicile of Mrs. Colton. The
statement of Miss Sacher's attorney was
that Mrs. Cotton repeatedly expressed her
purpose in the early "90s to "shake the
dust of California from her feet." and
that she left California in 1S!S, feeling bit
ter over litigation with relatives as to
the. distribution of some of the estate left
by her husband, General D. D. Colton.
It is allesed that .Mrs. Colton resided
In YVashinKton almost continuously from
1!0S until the time of her death, and dur
ing that period spent only five weeks In
Santa Cruz. Cal.
It is expected the trial win take up
about two weeks and that more than a
hundred witnesses will be examined, some
of them comingr from France.

WILL TAKE TRAIN ORDERS
Women to Displace Telegraphers at
Small Stations.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. A new field
of employment for women is to be
opened by the railways. This does not
mean that the roads will employ women
telegraphers, but on the contrary their
employment will be for the purpose of
taking the place of telegraphers already
in the service. In the future women rail
way operating employes will be engaged
at smaller stations taking train oriers
over the telephone, where formerly such
orders were transmitted and received by
telegraph. This new field will be open to
women when the new nine-hour day law
governing the working time of railway
telegraphers goes into effect on March 1.
It was contidently expected that this
law would work a revolution in railway
operation, and it was with this end in
view that the Order of Railway Telegra
phers procured its passage, despite the
determined opposition of railway man
agers and even against advice direct from
the White House. The revolution is Fom
ing, all right, but it will be a revolution
which will relegate the telegraph to a
hack seat as an adjunct to raUway op
eration and will throw thousands of oper
ators out ot employment.

BULLETS FOR THE ROBBER
Alaska Miners Angered at Having
Caches RoDbed.
SEATTLE. Wash., Jan. 22. tSpecial.)
According to word received here today
from Fairbanks. Alaska, miners of the
Innoka district, driven to desperation by
having their outfits stolen, have banded
themselves together and taken oaths to
kill on sight a person known as "Five
Finger Jimmy." The news of the sworn
vengeance of the miners' committee Is
brought to Fairbanks by A. Fiedler, an
operator on Little Creek. He arrived
with a dog team.
He says there are about 250 miners on
Little, Gaines and Folger Creeks. So
many caches have been robbed lately
and the prices of provisions are so high
that there will be very little prospecting,
as the miners are forced constantly to
guard their provisions. Flour is selling
at $50 a hundred and everything else is
SI a pound. In fact nothing is retailed
for less than Jl, and canned milk sells
for 91 a can.

CONFESSES TO DETECTIVE
Neronl Deceived Into Telling of
Murder by Wholesale.
DENVER, Jan. 22. The Republican to
day prints an alleged confession secured
by an Italian detective from Antone
Neronl, alias Bavori, charged with the
murder of four Italians, three men and
one woman at Florence. Colo. The de
tective is Frank Sandeska, of Pueblo,
who, according to the story, gained the
confidence of Neroni. who is now con
fined in the County Jail at Canyon City,
by- pretending to be a member of the
Black Hand Society from Pittaburg, Pa.
The two were permitted to converse in a
cell in the jail. Sandesko explaining his
presence there by telling Neronl that he
was being held on the charge of murder
committed in Omaha. During the con
versation Neronl exptesaed a deair to
belong to' the Black Hand, and when
Sandesko told him that it was neces
sary for him to prove that he had com
mitter 12 murders before he could be ad
mitter, Neroni replied that he was eli
gible Sandesko states that Neronl then re
lated to him a series of murders he had
committed, beginning with the killing of
a neighbor who had abused him in Italy
when he was but 12 years old. The nar
rative gradually brought him to the re
cital of details connected with the dis
appearance of the four Italians at Flor
ence. Sandesko says that Neroni con
fessed that he killed the woman be
cause she would not marry him, and
disposed of the three men in most brutal
fashion because he believed they sus
pected him of murdering the woman. It
was his intention, Sandesko says, to kill
the wife and two children of one of his

THE GRIP
WHAT EXIXENT PHYSIC1AKS
SAY AS TO ITS TREATMENT.
Da
Prevent It What to
After the Grip.
Eminent physicians like the late Drs.
Geo. F. Shrady and Cyrus Edson of
New York, agree that in the grip the
patient should be at once made warm
and be given a good cathartic.
The Best Cathartic in the grip is
Hood's Pills, becauae not only are they
"easy to take and easy to operate,"
hut instead of weakening like other
cathartics they have a true tonic
effect.
To Prevent the Grip, avoid undue ex
posure, keep your feet always dry, and
take Hood's Sarsaparllla. This last
advice Is very important, because if
your blood is in good condition, and
your appetite and digestion are ail
right, you will escape the grip. It
seizes upon those whose health-tone
is low, whose blood is thin and poor.
After 'the Grip, Hood's Sarsaparllla
is the greatest tonic that can be taken.
It overcomes that weak, debilitated
condition, purines, vitalizes and en
riches the blood, eliminates all that
"grip poison," creates an appetite, aids
digestion, and soon puts one "on his
feet" again.
