ARREST OB. HYDE Oil MURDER CHARGE

Murder in the First Degree Is Allegation Made in the Affidavit. WAS CALM AND COLLECTED TELEPHONED HIS WIFE THAT HE WAS ARRESTED, BUT WOULD BE HOME FOR SUPPER $50,000 BOND IS GIVEN. Kansas City, Mo., Feb. 11. Dr. Bennett Clark Hyde was arrested yesterday afternoon, charged with the murder of Colonel Thomas II. Swope, Kansas City's millionaire philanthropist. The complaint, which charged first degree murder, was signed by John G. I'axton, one of the executors of the Swope estate, and also one of its attorneys. Dr. Hyde's bond was fixed at km and it was furnished at his arraignment before VV. S. Loar, justice of the peace in Independence. The preliminary hearing was set for Thursday, February 17, one week from yesterday, at 1 o'c lock. Business Men on Bond. The physician's bond of ,$r0,X0 was signed by Fernando P. Nail, president of the Southwestern National bank; "XV. D. Scruggs, a live stock dealer; H. V. Hall. William Mclaughlin of McLaughlin Bros., horse dealers; John H. Lucas, one of Mrs. Hyde's attorneys and attorney for the Metropolitan Street Railway company; Frank P. Vnalsh and John Mu Cleary, Hyde's attorneys and Dr. Hyde himself. The warrant charging murder was nerved at 4 o'clock. Hyde's attorneys Ave re notified at noon that a warrant for his arrest would be issued, and were told to have their client at the Criminal court building at 4 o'clock to he arrested. During the time elapsing between noon and 4 o'clock Dr. Hyde sat in the office of his attorneys and read. Hyde Took it Cooly. He did not seem to mind the thought of being placed under arrest and a charge of first-degree murder placed against him. He chatted with friends and attorneys, and called up his wife, who is a niece of Col. Swope. The conversation with Mrs. Hyde was not a long one. He simply told her that he was to be placed under arrest, but that he would be home for supper. All arrangements for the bond were fixed earlier in the week. At 4 o'clock, when Prosecuting Attorney Virgil Conkling appeared in the criminal court building with Marshal Joel Mayes. Dr. Hyde, who had been chatting with a group of friends, excused himself and walked over to the prosecutor's desk. Marshal Mayes tapped him on the shoulder from behind and said: "I have something here for you." Waived Reading of Warrant. Attorney Walsh, before his client rould say a word, jumped to his feet snd said: "We waive the reading of the warrant." Immediately following this the party got into waiting automobiles and went to Independence, where Dr. Hyde was arraigned. In the party were Prosecutor Conkling, Dr. Hyde, Attorneys Lucas, Walsh, Cleary and Johnson and Marshal Mayes. The Justice's office is a small room, there were only two chairs. Dr. Hyde was conducted to one of these and Justice Loar took the other. Dr. Hyde arose and declared: "I hate to be sitting down when so many older men are standing up. Won't one of you please take my chair?" He was told to keep his seat and the ! arraignment proceeded. After the adjournment Dr. Hyde rushed home to his wife, who is ill. Special Grand Jury Called. A special grand jury has been called to inquire into the death of Colonel j Swope. It will be convened Saturday I morning at ! o'clock. This decision! was reached at a lengthy conference ; between attorneys for Dr. Hyde, John l. I'axton's lawyers. Prosecutor Conkling and Judge Ralph Latshaw, of the criminal court. The conference, which was called at the order of Prosecutor Conkling, was held in Mr. Conkling's private office and lasted about half an hour. When a person finds himself suffering from chronic indigestion, there is just one of two things to do: Discontinue the use of food almost entirely or obtain something that will digest the food for you until your stomach muscles are in working order again. It Is possible to obtain a remedy that will digest food even when the stomach can't, and we can obtain the word of many reputable people to prove it. Since Indigestion Is usually complicated with constipation and liver trouble it Is necessary to get a remedy that has laxative as well as digestive properties, and which at the same time contains ingredients that will tone and strengthen the stomach and bowel muscles. Such a remedy, according to the testimony of people for a quarter of a century, is rr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which can be obtained of any druggist at fifty cents or one dollar a bottle, as it comes In both sizes. But if you are one who iias never used this grand remedy, and you would like to make a test of it befor buying of your druggist, then rend your name and address to Dr. Caldwell and he will gladly send you a free iampl bottle for trial.

Druggists and Blind Tiger La w On This Excellent Subject, E. S. Shumaker of the AntiSaloon League, Gives Out a Few of His Opinions.

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis. Ind., Feb. 11. E. S. Shumaker, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League, has given out an interview on the druggists and the blind tiger law, which is of interest. He says: "That there are honorable men in the druggist's profession and the great majority of druggists never handle liquor except professionally, we have always believed to be true. However, there are some druggists who do very much illicit liquor selling, and by so doing do dishonor to the regular profession. "Judge Bratton, of the DeKalb circuit court, has recently made a decision which will open the way for innumerable prosecutions against the dishonorable class of druggists in his own county. "One, J. J. Stoehr sold L. M. Chorpenning a quart of whiskey upon the purchaser signing a printed application. The contention of the state was that the application should have been written by the applicant as well as signed by him in order to have conformed to the requirements of the Beardsley law. The state further charged that the purchaser was in the habit of becoming intoxicated and that under the law Mr. Stoehr was prohibited from selling him liquor. "The defense fought both these contentions, but the court ruled that the application should be in the purchaser's own hand writing, and further that it was the duty of the druggist to knowthat the applicant for intoxicating liquors is not in the habit of using the same for a beverage. Many witnesses were introduced to show that Mr. Chorpenning was a hard drinker. Therefore, according to the judge's ruling, the druggist was guilty of violating the law in selling him the liquor at all. since it was his duty to know that the man was not in the habit of using the liquor for beverage purposes. "Judge Rigley ,of the Albion circuit court, made a similar ruling at Angola recently, and a conviction and a heavy fine resulted. "While the Beardsley law is unsatisfactory in some respects, yet we are confident that its provisions are not well known to the public generally. If a druggist sells liquor to an applicant in the habit of using intoxicating liquors as. a beverage, he violates the law. One conviction for such violation means that he cannot handle liquor again for two years, and a second violation means the revocation of his pharmacist's license. My attention has also been called to a decision by Judge Kirkpatrick, of Kokomo, in a case against Harvey E. Bates, a druggist of that city, who was convicted by a jury in the circuit court, for selling a quart of whisky to a bootlegger. The judge emphasized way thousands of people have been brought to use It. You cannot obtain a better or more reliable remedy for general family use as it is very curative in constipation of the most stubborn kind, in indigestion, liver trouble, sour stomach, sick headache and other troubles caused by disorders of the stomach, liver or bowels. Thousands of families like that of Mr. Prank Connor of 108 State street. Madison. Wis., and Mrs. Virginia Cunningham of Weir. Miss., no longer use the ordinary "dyspepsia cures" for indigestion, nor cathartic pills or salts for constipation, but they get Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which is truer and more genuine, milder and more pleasant, and yet thoroughly effective. Try it and see the good results you will obtain. Dr. Caldwell personally will be pleased to give you any medical advice you may desire for yourself or family pertaining to the stomach. liver or bowels absolutely free of charge. Explain your case in a letter and he will reply to you In detail. For the free sample simply send your name and address on a postal card or otherwise. For either request the doctor's address is Dr. W. B. Caldwell. R.504 Caldwell building. Monticello. OL

his position taken in a former case that the druggist under every condition sells the whisky at his own risk. In other words the druggist must have personal knowledge of the habits of the purchaser, who presents to him a '

physicians' certificate. In the absence of such knowledge he must make diligent inquiry." Mr. Shumaker also says that the temperance people of Indiana must get busy and keep busy throughout the coining state campaign or the brewers and the liquor element will get the best of them. He has issued the following instructions to the AntiSaloon League workers in the state: "Make sure that decent citizens are thoroughly organized, get to the primaries and nominate men to run for the legislature who will stand both for the maintenance of our county option law unimpaired upon our statute books, and for the passage of a joint resolution, to be repassed in 19115. submitting a prohibition amendment to our constitution to a vote of the people. Let all Indiana be aroused. let good citizens assert themselves, and we believe that the temperance element in both the Democrat and Republican parties will so completely win out in the primaries and at the rolls that the next legislature will be composed of strong temperance men. "The seventy dry counties of this state will this year elect 58 representatives out of a total of 100. Twelve additional representative districts composed of more than one county each, are partly dry. Out of our fiftysenatorial districts 25 are in territory wholly dry, and nearly all the rest have territory partly dry. The net dry majorities cast in the 79 counties which voted on the local option question last year was about 6S.0OO. The liquor men cannot win in this territory unless they have a better organization than the temperance people. If the temperance people are defeated they will have no one to blame but themselves." At Local Theaters At the Murray. Ten Darks Knights, a company of colored players will be at the Murray theater all this week, featuring Jaok Smith. Be sure to see the parade of the Dark Knights as they introduce scenes from plantation days. Frint George & Co. in a "Midnight Mishap" are guaranteed to keep the -mdienee laughing from start to finish. Just imagine being The Dummy in a haunted house and a ghost occupying a chair in which your companion was just seated. There is plenty of comedy in this bill as the Iampe Brothers in the rural comedy sketch "SI and his Mule Maud." an amusing absurdity catering to the most fastidious, introducing singing and eccentric dancing. Then there is Billy Ray the Musical Chink, the motion pictures, a great big entertainment for the patrons of Richmond's popular playhouse. Ethel May. Miss Ethel May. the Mystery Girl, who is appearing at the Gennett this week, is one of the most wonderful women we "have had here. Her wonderful gift to answer any question which may be asked her is too truly marvelous to believe unless one sees her for one's self. A special matinee will be given tomorrow as it is Lincoln's birthday, and three cash prizes will be offered, one to the fattest, one to the smallest and one to the prettiest baby. The audience is to be the judge, and a regular baby show is expected. Miss May is being deluged with questions and the mail which she receives every morning at the "Westcott requires a special bell boy to take it to her room. "Fluffy Ruffles."

GOT HER FACE CRACKED A few weeks ago Mrs. G. G. Christofer, of Asbury Park, N. J., went out automobiling and got her face cracked. Since then, whenever she goes riding, she is careful to protect face from the dry parching and terrible stinging of the wind by th.e application of a Httle posiam. Although the posiam does not show, she washes it off urwn her return and finds her skin soft, clear and free from irritation. In like manner, posiam prevents the lips and hands from ehaj-

ping. It is immensly iopular among j is being secretly robbed by its posthe teatrieal profession for use In ! sessor, hundreds of postmen are pray-

It is free from coarseness, with tunes that are new and have a lilt to them which follows you clear home and then stays with you. The jokes are likewise of the latest brand, and there is a slang artist who is said to offer the most startling inundation of words ever yet turned loose upon the stage.

UNCLE SAM CAREFUL If you have been chuckling over the prospect of sending ugly and insulting postcards as valentines to someone whom you have a grudge against better seal them up in an envelope before mailing or they will never reach their destination. Otherwise they will go to the dead letter office. It is said that the postoffice department is going to wage a severe war on valentines of this nature, this year, and will in all probability prosecute all cases of violation of the law. Four years ago the department sent out an order to all postmasters to the effect that comic-valentine post cards which would tend to reflect injuriously on the recipient of the card should be sent to the dead letter office at Washington. A close watch will be kept by the employes of the local office this year, it is said, and the rule will be strictly adhered to. It is expected that the usual number of cards will be thrown out as the practice is of such long standing that it will require several years to break it up altogether.

The most effective and harmless way to cure backache and regulate out-of-order kidneys, or end bladder troubl-, is to take several doses of Pape's Diuretic.

Many a toy bank ing for pleasant weather next Monday, young hearts are beating fast at the thought of their premeditated daring, and toll of Cupid is being paid alike in the great department stores and in every little school store, all because Feb.

The vast proportions of Chicago's commemoration of the clubbing and lecapitation of the old Roman martyr 'are indicated in the announcement that the postoffice will deliver over a million more letters on that day. that the State street department stores will sell about $75,000 worth of tokens and that this amount will be doubled in the outlying districts.
