Washington. March _'l.—The house com-
mittee today voted to impeach Charles
Swayne, federal Judge for the district
of Florida. The committee reached this
conclusion at a session lasting*from two
to six o'clock. The vote and the details
of the charges which will form the
ground of impeachment, the committee
agreed to wlthold until the report of the
case has been completed for presenta-
tion to the house This report is to be
drawn by R. pr entntlve Palmer of Penn-
sylvania' chairman of the sub-committee
who took the testimony of Uiis use Tills
subcommittee consists of Palmer and
Clayton to the full committee In favor
of impeachment while the representative
from California reported against it.
Mr, Palmer's report will be prepared
tills week. If the house votes to impeach
Judge Swayne two of Its members will lie
appointed formally to notify the senate,
before which body, sitting in a Judicial
capacity the c-.se must lie tried. The
case against Judge Swayne would be con-
ducted by six managers who would be
members of the house elected by that
body by ballot for the work. Judge
Swayne, after the case has been present-
ed to the senate by these managers, will
he given an opportunity to present his
side of the ease.
While the committee has voted to give
out no details at pres.-nt, it is known
that the charges on which testimony was
taken include those being absent from his
circuit, being a non-resident of his dis-
trict. imprisoning a lawyer In contempt
proceedings. Imprisoning the son of a
litigant, also for contempt of court, and
refusing to hear a certain witness In a
case before him, alleging that he would-
n't believe the witness under oath.
The proceedings against Swayne. if enr.
rled to the senate, undoubtedly will
for several weeks the adjoi

Ithin a lew days ho would have re-

As it was, however, the assaults
from which ho Buffered occurred three
ics, cost, him great loss of time and
ney aud brought him to the very <
go of death. Told by himself, kin
story is as follows:
"I was attacked threo times during 3
three years by grip, comMicated with
pneumonia, and my sufferings were
terrible. 1 had some of tho beat phy-
sicians in the county but none of them
could give me any relief from tho *
fearful ivalns in the back of my head,
Just at the base of the skull. For two >
weeks I was so low that no one, ex-
cept the doctor and my wife, was per-
mitted to come into my room, and 1
once 1 was given up for dead."
"How did you finally get on your -
feet " asked the reporter. «
"Why, I happened io read of two
eases of grip that hud been cured by
Dr. Wiliams' Pink Pills for Pale I'eo* *
pie, so I got a box. After I had taken *
one box I felt much bettor, and three
boxes cured me completely."
"Have you had the grip since?"
"Yes, just, once, ti few years later,
but a few doses of tho same pills curetl
me again."
"Do you recommend this remedy tr
others?"
"1 do indeed; because I known tho
medicine is a grand good thing. No
one ever had the grip worse than \
did unless he died It was tho only
thing that saved my life."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are such an
excellent remedy for the grip and its
after-effects, because they expel poison
from the blood and supply tonic and
nutritive elements to every organ and
tissue Thi y quit ken the appetite. Im-
prove the digestion, give strength to
weak nerves, and, in short, forward all
the processes that tend to rapid nnd
complete recovery. Hence rheumatism,
anaemia, headaches, dizziness, nervous
irritability and prostration rapidly dis-
appear and the system is fortified
against a recurrence of the original
trouble. One of the most striking re-
sults of the use of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills In cases of Influenza is that the
depression, which is Roch a trying
characteristic , i
