CHELSEA, • INDIAN TERRITORY.
CURRENT COMMENT.
A Philadelphia newspajier mnn has
Just died at the age of 83. Perhaps
Ida only task was to clip the humor-
ous miscellany.
Does Mr. Jones, of Toledo, believe
that the golden rule means that one
•hould take the mnyoralty and never
let anybody else have it?
John K. Owen, former president
of the Halt imo re & Ohio railroad,
lias just returned from Cuba, where
lie says there is great possibilities
for railroads.
Eight new veins of anthracite dis-
covered near Wilkesbarre arc said to
contnin 300,000,000 tons of coal,
which would give employment to
000 miners 200 vears.
Four per cent., free from all taxa-
tion. is the interest offered on the
$8,000,000 certificates of indebtedness
of the government of the Philippine
Islands, authorized by congress.
As time goes on, the country will
be sure to wake up to the fact that
John Sherman knew what he was do-
ing when he prepared the plans s i d
specifications of the anti-trust law.
David R. Francis refuses to be a
candidate for president, and II. C.
Frick declines to accept the presi-
dency of the steel trust. It is a
great pity to sec two such good jobs
go begging.
From "Hnrdscrabble" log cabin just
outside the edge of St. Louis to being
the Princess Cantacuzenc of Russia
Is a long step, but Gen. ti rant's grand-
daughter may look hack on just such
bumble mid honest origin.
In less than one year an American
company has built 27 viaducts on the
British Cganda railroad, using 6.000
tons of steel in the work. The diffi-
culties of darkest Africa have never
been too much for American enter-
prise.
New Jersey's legislature has just
made mi appropriation of $300,000 for
• sanitarium for poor consumptives,
the money to buy a site having been
voted at a former session. Last week
the Pennsylvania legislature appro-
priated $83,000 for n free hospital for
consumptive patients.
The present mayor of St. Paul. Rob-
ert A. Smith, is just at the end of a
>0-years' residence in that city, lie
■went then- in 1853, as the private sec-
retary of the territorial governor ap-
pointed by President Franklin Pierce,
•ml has seen the place grow from a
hamlet of a few hundred persons to
• city of nearly 200,000.

of the temperance agitation through-
out the state nnd numerous elections
under the Ileal local option law, th#

day: "1 have telephoned to over 50
mayors in the past week telling them
that if they desire to enforce the
Sunday flowing law in their towns
the brewers will stand behind them
and assume all responsibility for any
action they may take. If they want
to enforce the law we will help them
do it."

cured SV.TOO anil tlie Admire Fust
Office Several Dollars.
Allen. Kan., April 19.—Last night
the Allen state bank was robbed.
The robbers entered at one of the
windows, broke into the vault and dy-
namited the safe and secured $2,700,
with which they pot away. The ex-
plosion of dynamite 'wrecked the
vault and bank building considerably.
The post office at Admire, another
small town a few miles east of Al-
len, was broken into last night, and
all the money In the office was taken.
This amounted to several thousand
dollars. Neither of the robberies
were discovered until morning.
The Atchison ("Kan.) Globe found
the following "problem" on a black-
board in one_ of the Bchools of Atchi-
son: "The stun of the face angles
of any polyhedron is equal to four
right angles taken as many times
less two. as the polyhedron has ver-
tices." "Can you get this through
your head?" asks the Globe. "Par-
ents should really entertain more
•we and reverence for children who
know what this means."
In responding to the congratu-
lations of an organization of St.
Louis lumbermen Circuit Attorney
Folk said last week: "I trust the
time will come when public office
will be held alone for public good
and never for private gain. There
can be no compromise with cor-
ruption. If the prosecution of crime
hurts any individual, his own deeds
■re his doomsman. If the enforce-
ment of law hurts any political party
more than another, it Is only an evi-
dence of a sad need of political re-
generation."

St. Louis, April 18.—Lieut. Gov.
John A. Lec, evidently fearing In-
dictment for perjury or bribery or
both, is a fugitive. St. Louis nnd
Jefferson City authorities have in-
formation which causes them to be-
lieve tliat the lieutenant governor
distributed £27,000 of baking powder
trust boodle two years ago, as rep-
resentative of D. J. Kelley, the legis-
lative agent. It bus l een known for
some time that boodle was distrib-
uted at the Laclede hotel here in
connection with the passage of the
anti-alum bill.
It is said Circuit Attorney Folk
proposes to bring Lee here. If he
can't get him as a witness he is going
into the camp of the men Lee accused
and gi*e some of them a clinuce to
become the state's witness provided
that mnn is so situated that he can
give important testimony ugainst
Lee. Then if he can get that evidence
he will not hesitate to ask Gov.
Dockery to issue a requisition for the
lieutenant governor provided Lee is
out of the state. It would be a
strange spectacle for the governor of
a state to send out a requisition for
the next man in authority to him-
self.
John A. Lee sent the following tcle-
gruin from Chicago to the St. Louis
Republic last night: "Report from
Kansas City that I denounced Folk Is
an abominable lie. I esteem him
highly and have always been his
friend. Will return after a few days'
rest, which is absolutely esseutial."

were bruised or otherwise injured.
The man who was drowned was a
brother-in-law of Capt. Wringe. He
was banding n binocular glass to Sir
Thomas at the time be was swept
overboard.
DYSPEPSIA OF WOMEN.
Cattlemen After Beef Truat.
Kansas City. Mo., April 18.—The
National Cattlemen's association is
hot on the trail of the proposed
packing house merger and has sup-
plied the government with informa-
tion which may lead to a suit being
filed by Attorney General Knox,
based on the same facts that ap
•d in the recently won National
Securities case.
Mrs. E. B. Bradshaw, of
Guthrie, Okla., cured of a severe
case by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
A great many women suffer with a
form of indigestion or dyspepsia which
does not 6ecin to yield to ordinary
mcdi.-al treatment. While the symp-
tom!) seem to be similar to those of
ordinary indigestion, yet the medi-
cines universally prescribed do not
seem to restore the patient's normal
condition.
Mrs. Pinkliam claims that there
is a kind of dyspepsia that is caused
by derangement of the female organ-
ism, and which, while it causes dis-
turbance similar to ordinary indiges-
tion. cannot be relieved without a
medicine which not only acts an a
stomach tonic, but has peculiar uterine-
tonic effects as well.
Thousand* of testimonial let-
ters prove Iteyonri question flint
nothing will relieve this distress-
ing condition so surely as Lydia
1". Pinkham's Vegetable Coin-
pound. It always works in har-
mony with the female system.
Mrs. Pinkliam advises siek
women free. Address Lynn, Mass.

Washington, April 18.—The resl- j
| dence of the late Gen. Philip II.
Admiral Dewey's confidence in tha
American navy in comparison with
that of Germany does not command
Capt. Hobson's assent. Hobson con-
tends that tonnage, not men, must be
the measure of u navy's efficiency;
and the personal courage, skill and
general ability of the men as fight-
ers, as between the Americans and
Germans, has not been settled, nnd
that as a mater of fact, the German
navy will soon be ahead of the Amer-
ican navy in tonnage and displace-
ment. Hobson is entitled to be re-
garded as an expert.

I would not be without a bottle at hand, us I
think It a very valuable preparation for the
stomach, and have no objections to your uslti*
my name as an endorsement of this, what I re-
irard a great remedy for stomach trouble. I
bad tried many doctors and about every rem-
edy that was prescribed by friends, and must
say that Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has dona
me more good than all I have ever tried."
