TWO JAILED BY LIE IN BOMBING, WITNESS SAYS Woman Confesses Perjury and Frameup in Billings, Mooney Case. . BY GEORGE D. CRISSEY United Press Staff Correspondent SAN FRANCISCO, March 21,New hope appeared today for liberation of two prison-broken men. Estelle Smith, a major witness, declared that Thomas Mooney and Warren K. Billings were “framed” when tried for murder in 1917. Mooney and Billings, labor agitatoft, were convicted of a San Francisco preparedness day bombing July 22, 1916, in which ten persons were killed. Testifies to Bribe Attempt __ Testimony of Miss Smith sent Billings to Folsom prison for life. She said he was the man she saw in the doorway of a building in which a bomb was planted. In an affidavit made Wednesday she said this testimony was false and that it was inspired by Charles M. Fickert, •then district attorney, while she was under the influence of drugs. Mooney's known connection with Billings paved the way for his conviction, although Miss Smith appeared in the Billings case only. The affidavit climaxed nationwide efforts to obtain pardons for the men and. in addition to classifying the Billings case testimony as false, said an effort was made to have Miss Smith say she saw Mooney in the doorway where the bomb was planted. Although offered money to identify Mooney, the girl, then a dentist’s helper, refused, the affidavit relates. Saved From Death From San Quentin prison, where Mooney is confined, a broken man of 50, came word that he expects soon to join his wife, Rena, who has never ceased her efforts, as head of the “Mooney Defense League,” to gain his freedom. Mooney, originally sentenced to hang, was saved when Governor William D. Stephens commuted his sentence, but no further progress through him or his successors, F. W. Richardson and Governor C. C. Young, ever was made.

CAPONE FACES SECOND QUIZ Must Return Before Grand Jury in Chicago. bn United Press CHICAGO, March 21.—“ Scarface Al” Capone returns, probably next Tuesday, for more questioning by a federal grand jury about a liquor ring in Chicago Heights’. Capgne was in seclusion today following his melodramatic appearance Wednesday at the Federal building at the stroke of 10 a. in., as,he and his attorneys had predicted. His body-guard of pistol secretaries so far hasn’t put in its appearance, the police having signified their intention of jailing them on sight. The gangster leader, who bears the reputation of controlling liquor, vice and gambling rackets in Cook county, was closeted with the grand jurors about two hours Wednesday. What questions he was asked and what he said in reply remained a secret, but his attorneys assured any one who asked that he hadn’t told much if anything, about his activities. In fact. Capone himself before he entered the inquisition room, said: “This is a bum rap. I don’t know

TOO WEAK FOR LIGHT EXERCISE Lady Was Discouraged, But Began To Gain Strength After Taking Cardui. “I was very weak and sick. I could not sit up all day,” says Mrs. Lizzie Perry of Luretha, Ky., in telling how she came to take Cardui the first time. “I would try to walk in the yard, but would give out and my husband would have to carry me into the house. I only weighed ninety pounds. I did not suffer so much pain—I just felt lifeless. “One day, when I was so discouraged, a friend came to see me and said for me to try Cardui. She believed it would help me. I have never ceased to be thankful for her visit, for I then began to take Cardui. “I was so weak that I had to take two bottles before I felt stronger and more like eating. “After I had taken three bottles I began t-o gain weight. I am 48 years old and weigh 158 pounds. “When I feel puny and run-down I take Cardui and feel better. I go to town and visit my friends—something I could not do before I took Cardui.”

LOCAL LADY FREE * OF KIDNEY PAINS AFTER TEN YEARS “Konjola Was The Medicine I Should Have Had In The First Place,” She Says In Praise of Famous Remedy. Surprising as it may seem, this new and totally different medicine, Konjola, is at the very peak of its powers in cases that have defied all medicines and treatments. Working with the sufferer’s own food, it restores a more normal,

healthy action to the important functionary organs of the body. How often the Konjola Man, who is at the Hook Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, hears the expression “How I wish I had known of Konjola a great deal sooner—it was the medicine I should have had in the first place.” Grateful men and women are calling every day to tell of the remarkable benefits they derived through the use of this medicine. Many of his callers are people in poor health, seeking to find the road to new and glorious health. The Konjola is pointing out to them case after case wherein Konjola proved the first and only medicine that brought relief. Take, for instance, the statement of Mrs. Emma Hamilton, 1214 East Tenth street, this city, who had a most remarkable experience with Konjola: “After I had taken a brief treatment of Konjola I realized that it was the medicine I should have had in the • first place. For ten long years I suffered from kidney trouble of the worst sort. Severe pains in my back almost prevented me from getting around. Night and day they affected me; my feet and ankles were swollen and sore, In fact, my whole body was filled with these sharp, agonizing pains. Due to the sluggishness of my liver I became subject to dizzy spells, when hundreds of spots appeared before my eyes. I was becoming weaker and more rundown daily—often barely being able to get out of bed in the morning. Worst of all was the fact that nothing gave me the slightest bit of relief. “It was just when my case was at its worst that I started on the Konjola treatment. This medicine certainly had the most adverse conditions to work under. But do you think that made any difference? Certainly not, Konjola did not falter. It went right to the source of my troubles and in little over a month I was a well and happy woman. Konjola strengthened and invigorated my kidneys—banished the swelling and pains. My liver was regulated so that the dizzy spells vanished and new energy and vigor took hold of my system. Konjola alone is responsible for the remarkable change in my health. I owe everything to it I can fully understand why it is called the master medicine of them all and I praise it to everyone—young and old.” This is not an exceptional case. Konjola has thousands of them to its credit. Daily more and more men and women are describing the benefits they derived through its use. It is said that no sufferer can afford not to give Konjola a trial. The Konjola Man is at the Hoofc Drug Store. Illinois and Washington streets, this city where he i> meeting the public daily, introducing and explaining the merits of this master medicine.—Advertisement.
