arrested In Boise and will be brought
back to answer to a charge of passing ;
a second check. Detective Tom Kay left

it was not until almost noon that Cor

was Interested In learning tho nature of

been made It seems unlikely that tho
coroner would ever have heard of the
enao and the cliourastances of a death

lowed to pass without an official investigation.

At the time the accident happened
Lee was working on the top of a pile
driver that was setting the caps on
! plies far out In the chanr.el of tho
j river. The river 'steamer Henderson
was seen approaching at speed and the
members of the idle driver crew sig-
naleJ her to slow down so that the
swell caused by her passage So close at
hand would not cause danger of upset
ting the top-heavy pile driver.
Instead of responding to the signals
the Henderson continued at full speed.
The swells caused by her rapid pas
rage caused the pile driver to rock so

top of the drover to the deck. 40 feet be

unable to help hemself.
Word was dispatched to tne city ana
the injured man was soon taken to Good
Samaritan hospital, where he was placed
under the care of Dr. Wetherbee. Such
aid as medical and surgleal skill could
afford was given him, but from the
first It was seen thnt the Injuries must
have a fatal result. Death came at
midnight.

Lee's home was In Topeka, Kansas,
where his wife is now living. He came
to this city from St. Louis with the

Disease Is of Short Duration and

tions Is Rarely Fatal
Not since the grip epldemlo Of 1S89-80
has the dreaded Influenza been so preva
lent m now. No age or station In life Is
xempt from It, nor can Its attack be
prevented with certainty. It Is, bow
ver, mors frequent In persons living In
Overcrowded and 111-ventllated homes
and In low, damp surroundings.
The best authorities give no satis
factory treatment for the acute stage
but It Is of short duration, usually run

For a disease of such limited duration
and one which, without complications. Is
rarely fatal, the grip leaves Its victims
more debilitated and less able to with
stand other disorders than any othor.
One of our foremost medical writers
says: "It Is astonishing, the number of
people who have been crippled In health
for years after an attack." It Is a com
mon thing to hear people date various
ailment or chronlo Ill-health from an
aiiaca oi inriuensa.
The real danger from the grip Is dur
ing convalescence, when the character
"0 ymptoros, the fever, the catarrh,
the headache and the depression of
spirits pass awsy. The grip leaves be
hind It weakened vital powers, thin
blood. Impaired digestion and over-sensitive
nerves a condition that makes
the system an easy prey to pneumonia,
bronchitis, rheumatism, nervous pros
tration and even consumption. Too much
stress cannot be laid on the Importance
of strengthening the blood and nerves
during convalescence.
The story told by scores of victims of
the grip Is substantially the same. One
was tortured by terrible pains at the
base of the skull that made life unen-
uuraoie ana tnat long defied the power
oi medicine; anoiner was left tired,
faint and in every waV wretched from
anaemia or scantiness of blood; another

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills increase the
number of red corpuscles In the blood.
This is a matter of easy proof by micro
scopic test. They therefore may, be
said to actually make new blood, They,
are the mo6t direct cure known ,fo?
anaemia and all similar conditions. They
cure debility and most forms of weak
ness because they make It possible for
the nourishment taken in the Dodv to
reach the parts that require it. They
cure rheumatism, because rheumatism
Is caused by impure blood, and when
they replace the impure blood with pure,
the disease Is eradicated not tempo
rarily suppressed, but cured to stay
cured. After-effects or grip, fevers
and other wasting diseases are best
treated with these blood-making pills
because after these troubles the blood
Is thin, watery and Impure, and the
health will not be perfectly restored
until the vital fluid Is made pure and
rich. The pills are guaranteed to be
free from opiates or any harmful drug
and cannot injure the most delicate
system.
