Amsterdam, April 19. German atroci
ties equaling anything yet revealed dur
ing the present war of barbarism
against civilisation were made known
here Thursday when M. Tchitcherln.
Russian minister of foreign affairs,
protested to the German government
against the action of German soldiers
at Novoselkl, Mohllev, according to
dispatches from Moscow.
When peasants of the little village of
Novoselkl resisted the attempt of Ger
man troops to seize tyeir money and
killed a German officer the Huns turned
their machine guns on the citizens, kill
ing many women and children.
Tchitcherin also mentions that the
Germans killed an entire family, includ
ing women and children, on the strength
of a report that a member of the family
had fired at the German forces."
Hawley's Clatskanie
Amendment Adopted
Testimony In the prosecution of Frank
Gaudio on a charge of murdering Lucy
Carter at the Cadi1 lac hotel December
22 last, taken today in Circuit Judge
Kavanaugh's court. Is following along
the same lines as in the previous trial of
Gaudio which resulted in a disagree
ment of the Jury, although Deputy Dis
trict Attorney John Collier of counsel
for the state is of the opinion that the
prosecution has a stronger case.
Bill Patterson, .formerly Janitor of
the hotel, testified that on the night
of the murder he was obliged to warn
Gaudio and the Carter woman and an
other person, who it was ascertained
afterwards was Dominic Aqulna, to be
more quiet. He warned them twice, he
said, and threatened to call the police.
It ia contended by the state that
Gaudio, Mrs. Carter and Aquina were
Indulging in a drunken brawl and dur
ing Its progress Mrs. Carter was at
tached, klfled and thrown through the
window.
The theory of the defense as stated
by Gaudio's attorney, Paul Dormitzer,
is that Mrs. Carter was leaning over
the sill of the open window and fell
out when- Gaudio was seeing Aquina out
through a rear room. v "
The prosecution will not ' be brought
to a close before Saturday noon and the
case is not expected to reach the jury
before Tuesday.

"I have found Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills," she says, "to be a wonderful
medicine. Owing to a run down condition
of my blood, I-suffered for two years.
My nervous system was in a terrible
state. I lost flesh and suffered every
thing a woman could. I had severe
pains through the top of my head and
across my temples. When these spells
came on me I would have to give up
and was often confined to bed for a day
or so. After these headaches I would
feel weak for days. I had no appetite
whatever.
"The doctor did not help me much.
For a time I would feel better under
his treatment and then be worse again.
Through reading about Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills I was led to give them a
trial. I soon felt better and gained rap
idly. I gained in flesh, had a good color
and could eat a hearty meal. I take the
pills now once in a while for a tonic and
always receive. benefit from them."
