ONE DEAD AN
OTHER WOUNDED
Property Worth $250,000 to $300,000
Shattered Train Seized by a Mob
of 800 or 1000.
Spokane, April 29. A Wardner special
to the Spokeraan-Review says:
Wardner today has been the ecene of
the worst riots 6ince the deadly labor
war of 1892. One man ia dead, another
is thought to be mortally wounded, and
property valued at $250,000 has been de
stroyed by giant powder and fire. The
damage was done by nnion men and
sympathizers from Canyon creek, about
20 miles from Wardner.
This morning a mob of from 800 to 10(0
men, all of them armed and many
of them masked, seized a train at Burle,
at the head of Canyon creek. There
were nine box cars and a paseenger
coach, and they were black with the mob.
1 The visitors brought with them 30C0
pounds of giant powder.
After a parley of two hoars, 140 masked
men, armed with Winchesters, Bnrke in
the lead and Wardner following, started
with yells for the Bunker Hill&ISullivan
mill and other buildings, a third of a
mile from the depot. They sent pickets
ahead, and one of these pickets fired a
ebot as a signal that the mill was aban
doned. This was misunderstood by the
main body -of the mob, who imagined
that non-union miners in the mills bad
opened fire on them, and they began
firing on their own pickets. About 1000
shots were thus exchanged between the
rioters and their pickets, and Jack
Smith, one of the pickets, formerly of
British Columbia, and a noted figure in
drill contests, was shot dead. The fata
error was discovered after a few seconds'
firing and Smith's body brought down
from the hillside.
By this time the strikers had taken
possession of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan
mill, which they found deserted, the
manager haxing directed his employes
mot to risk their lives battling with the
mob.
Powder was called for, and 60 50-pound
boxes were carried from the depot to the
mill. The heaviest charge was placed
among the machinery of the mill. An
other charge was placed under the brick
office building. Other charges were
placed around the mill. Then the boarding-house,
a frame structure, was fired.
Fuses leading to the charges were lighted,
and the Btrikers carrying the dead body
of the picket, retired to a eafe distance.
At 2:36 p, m. the first blaet went off.
It shook the ground for miles, and build
ings in Wardner, two miles away, trem
bled. At intervals of about thirty seconds
four other charges went off, the fifth be
ing the largest and completely demolish
ing the mill. The loss to the Bunker
Hill & Sullivan Company is estimated
from $250,000 to $300,000.
In a few minutes the strikers went
back to the station, the whistle was blown
for stragglers, the mob soon climbed
abroad and at 3 o'clock, just three hours
after its arrival, the train pulled out for
Canyon creek.
During the fusillade from the guns of
the mob, Jim Cbayne, a Bunker Hill &
Sullivan millman, was severely shot
through the hips. It is reported that he
was carried off by the strikers, and bis
wound is probably fatal. J. J. Rogers,
a stenographer in the employ of the com
pany, was shot through the lip, but bis
wound as trivial.

CATARRH OF
THE STOMACH
A Pleasant, Simple, Safe but Effectual
Cure for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or
bloated eensation after eating, accomp
anied some times with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the lungs and heart and
difficult breathing; headache, fickle ap
petite, nervousness and a general played
out and languid feeling.
There is of ten a fonl taste in the month,
coated tongue, and if the interior of
stomach could be seen it would show a
slimy, inflamed condition.
Thecure for this common and obstinate
disease is found in a treatment which
causes the food to be readily and
thoroughly digested before it has time to
ferment and irritate the delicate mucous
surfaces of the stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy digest
ion ia the one necessaiy thing to do, and
when normal digestion is secured the
catarrhal condition will have disap
peared.
According to Dr. Harianson the safest
and best treatment is to nee after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastree,
Aseptic Pepsin, a little Kox, Golden Seal
and fruit 8cids.
These tablets can now be found at all
drug stores under the name of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being a pat
ent medicine, can be need with perfect
safety and assurrance that healty appe
tite and thorough digestion will follow
their regular use after meals.
Mr. N. J. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn St.,
Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh is a
local condition resulting from a neglected
cold in the head, whereby the lining
membrane of the nose becomes inflamed
and the poisonous discharge therefrom,
passing back into the throat, reaches the
stomach, thus producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities prescribed
for me three years for catarrh of the
stomach without cure, but today I am
the happiest of men after using only one
box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I
cannot fiud appropriate words toexpress
my good feeling. I have, found flesh,
appetite and sound rest from their use.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
preparation as we'll as the simplest and
mdst convenient remedy for any form of
indigestion catarrh of the stomach,
biliousness, sour stomach, heartburn and
bloating after meals.

troubles, by addressing the F. A. Stuart
Co., Marshall, Mich. The tablets can
be found at all drug stores. -
Discovered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in this
country. "Disease fastened its c'utches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest teets, but her vital
organs were undertermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed incessantly, and could not
eleep. She finally discovered a way to
recovery, by purchasing of na a bottle of
Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump
tion, and was so much relieved on taking
first dose, that she slept all night; and
with two bottles, has been absolutely
cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz."
Thus writes W. C. Hamnick & Co., of
Shelby, N. C. ?rial bottles free at

.The ancients believed that rheuma
tism was the work of a demon within a
man. Any one who has had an attack
of sciatic or inflammatory rheumatism
will agree that the infliction is demoniac
enough to warrant the belief. It has
never been claimed that Chamberlain's
Pain Balm would cast out demons, tut
it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds
bear ' testimony to the truth of this
statement. One application relieves
the pain and this quick reliet which it
affords is alone worth many time sits
cost. For eale by Blakeley & Houghton.
Elegant new Pullman palace sleepers

turned out by the Pullman Company.
These new palaces will leave Portland on

DECLINES TO
GRANT ARMISTICE
Full Amnesty Was Promised the Rebels
Upon Surrender, but They De

of Good Faith.
Manila, April 29. 3 p. m. The con
ference today between Otis and Colonel
Manuel Aguelezes and Lieutenant Jose
Bernal, who came from General Luna
under a flag of truce yesterday to ask for
a cessation of hostilities, were fruitless.
It is understood the Filipino commis
sioners were given the terms npon which
the Americans will consent to negotiate.
The Filipinos admit they have been
defeated, and it is expected will return
with fresh proposals from General
Luna.
Washington, April 29. The following
dispatch was received this -morning from
Otis:
"Manila, April 29. The conference
with insurgent representatives termi
nated this morning. Their request was
for a cessation of hostilities of three
weeks to enable them to call their con
gress to decide whether to continue the
prosecution of the war or prepare terms
of peace. The proposition was declined
and full amnesty promised on surrender.
It is believed the insurgents are tired of
war, but seek to secure terms of peace
through what they denominate their
representative congress. OTIS."
