Cherry PeCtOral

Is not a new claimant for popular conf
dence, but q medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since It was
first offered to the public.
There is not q household in which this
Invaluable remedy has once been In
PRODUCED where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there is not person
who has ever given it q proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible of cure, who has not been made
well by it.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
in numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Laryngitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients in the earlier stages
Of Pulmonary Consumption. 1t Is
medicine that only requires to be taken In
small doses, Is pleasant to the taste, and Is
needed in every house where there are
children, as there is nothing so good as
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL for treat
ment of Group and Whooping Cough.
These are all plain facts, which can be
verified by ANYBODY, and should be re-
membered by everybody.

PUBLIC RASCALS

ST. LOUIS, July 1.-THE Grand Jury
ceased it's investigation of the charges
against members of the House of Delegates
TODAY. and returned indictments against
six of them. MeSSrS. Waters, Piston,
Brugrermaun, Gartenbach, Keenan,, and
n other whose name has not yet been as
certained, were indicted for drunkenness
in office, and Keenan,, Piston, and Brady,
for bribery in connection with the inveS-
tisation of the Casino theatre investigation,
when the bill revobing that theatres license
of indecent performance was before the
House. The jurors returned two other in
dictmentS for attempted bribery, one
arainSt DIR. Wellington Adams, the other
against Charles A.. Davis, an attorney.
These gentlemen had charge of the Electric
Railway hill, and were present ut almost
every session of the House urging its pass
a"e. The bill failed to pass, however, and
il is said that DR.. Adams became
senraged at members who had voted
AGAINST the measure, and threatened
in the lobby of the House to show
up some of them in such n plain light rs to
make them decidedly uncomfortable.
Then followed the charges against twelve
delegates, that they We're Ineligible TO
office having periured themselves by swear
ing falsely to the oath when they took
their seats. This expose, quite naturally
aroused the wrath of the accused and they
determined TO pay the doctor of in his
own coin, and gave the information to
the Jury which led to his indictment,
his information being that he had offered
two of the members large sums of money
for their affirmative votes upon the
bill. DIR. Adams states, however,
that he never attempted to bride these
members, but that they, on the other
hand, called to him and volunteered to
vote for the bill for n certain money con-
Sideration.
Bench warrants for the arrest of the in
dicted men have been placed in the hands
of the sheriff, who will serve them as soon
as possible.
Delegate Pishon and Doctor Adams were
arrested this afternoon and brought into
Court where they furnished bond in the
sum of 81, 500 each.

THE DOW LAW.
Anxiety to Have the Question of Its Consti-
nationality Settled.

Anxiety to Have the Question OF Its consul
nationality Settled.
COLUMBUS, o., July 1.-THE Attorney
General is in receipt Of numerous letters
from all parts of the State asking If a
special session of the Supreme Court can
not he held in order to decide the question
of the cOnstitutionality of the Dow liquor
tax law. There is no statute on the sub
iect. and no way of converting the our
except the members of their own motion
agree To meet and hear the case. just
now the members of the Court are scatter
cd far and wide, and it would be Il diff
cult matter to get them together.
Great inconvenience is experienced all
over the State in making the tax levy, on
account of the uncertainty in connection
with the distribution, if at all, OF the Dow
tax. Had not the great County Auditor
and County Treasurer of Hamilton county
made such a tremendous kick when the
case from Cincinnati was brought here, the
matter might have been disposed of ere
this. But then the big bore lawyers would
not have secured their TctainerS, as the sd
loon-keeperS had not at that time succeeded
in raising so, 900 to fight the Dow law IN
the courts. 1t will be observed that no
other class of taxpayers of the State are
raising large sums of money to impede the
collection of the taxes levied against them.

The Old Romancist Succumbs 10 Heart
Disease.
STAMFORD, DELAWARE COUNTY, y. y,
July 17.-Edward u. c. JudsOn l"Ned
Buntline"), the story writer, died Of heart
disease at his home here yesterday after
noon. lie was 81 years of age. When II
years old he entered the Government scrv-
ice as an apprentice on board Il man-0t-
war. 4 wear later President Van Burcn
sent him a commission rs midShipman for
mcritorious conduct in TcSCuing the crew
of Il boat run down by a Fulton fc%rry-boat
on the East river. Young Judson was
assigned to the Lcvant. Other midshlp-
men refused to mess with him because
he had been n common sailor before
the mast. and while on the way To join
the gulf squadron he challenged thirteen of
them To fight. Some withdrew their re-
fuSll and associated with him, but he
fought seven of them, one after another in
Florida, New Orleans and Havana, escap-
ing without q scratch himself, but mark
ing four of his antagonists for life. From
that time on his reputation as one oi the
best shots in the United States was eStah-
lished. Ned Buntlinc probably carried
more wounds in his body than any other
living American. He had in his right
knee a bullet received in Virginia and had
twelve other wounds inflicted by sword,
shell and gun, seven of which were got in
| battle. He was not educated for the army
and navy. The title of Colonel came to
him as Chief ofScouts in the Rebellion OF
1-6l-J
His first story, "The Captains Pig
was published in the Knickerbockcr Hdgd-
zinc under the ]pSeudonym of Ned Bunt-
line. in 1893, when in his fifteenth year.
This sketch brought notoricty to the
Young writer and fighter, who subsequent
~ received as high as $50, 600 a year for
the produce of his brain and pen. For
many wears his income as n story writer
brought him SO 900 annually. He once
earned $l2, 800 in six weeks, and at another
time. under pressure, wrote a book Of 6lO
pages in sixty-two hours, scarcely sleeping
or eating during that time.

lE CREAM.

CHARLESTON, ILL, July 17.-sIrs. Ed
win Wiley and Mr. Edwin E. Crebs gave
a lawn party at the formers residence yes
terday afternoon. Se~venty-ive ladies at
tended and partOok Ola luncheon provided
for the guests. Upon returning home in
the evening they all without exception be-
came seriously i'll and soon seventy-fye
husbands, fathers and brothers were
running all over town in n wild chase
after physicians. Twenty extra physicians
besides these residing here could have
found steady employment had they been
at hand. All of those who attended the
party were seized with vomiting and
showed symptoms of poisoning, but none
of the cases have proved fatal. How the
poison came to be present in any of the
eatables is not known, but is supposed
that the milk used in preparing the ice
cream had become tainted.

BROWNSVILLE, Ten, July 1.-THE
revolution in Tamauli Pas, Mexico. APP
pears TO be increasing and the troops in
this section seem utterly unable to cope
with it. Already they are making some
demonstration toward this side. Last
Wednesday night twenty of them crossed
and occupied n ranch six miles above this
city, but rs they committed no outlawry
they were not arrested. To-day, however,
Sheriff BritO received the following dis
patch from Santa MoreleuS: last night
fifteen men crossed from this side TO La
BalSa to Join the party. Among them was
MoreOs de Luna, Manuel HinpoSa, Ber-
nardo Gonzales. and other good ones. They
are stealing guns and pistols and horses
from the ranches in front of here. They
killed one man yesterday because he would
not give up his pistols. Santa Maria
is twenty-five miles above here
on the river, and there is
a small sub-pOst of United States Cavalry
stationed there. ASthc parties mentioned
in the telegram are noted deSperadOcS and
outlaws indicted here, Brito at once left
with a force of deputies for the Sccnc of
action, and on his representation, Major
Kellogg sent up 4 force of cavalry Ia rein
force the sub-poSt and prevent any inva-
sion of the American soil. 1t is known
that the RcvolutioniSts want arms badly
and as there is a large supply at llyncs'
stores in Santa Maria, il is feared that they
may be tempted 10 attack and capture
them.

The Finance Committee Report the NomI-
nation Unanimously.

Special Telegram 20 the Sunday Register.
WASHINGTON, ID. C., July 17.-At Its
last meeting the Finance Committee of the
Senate had under consideration the nomi-
nation of John I. McGraw, to be Collector
of Internal Revenue for the District OF
West Virginia. ASvote was had by the
Committee which resulted in a decided
majority in favor of confirmation, where
upon Senator Miller, of New York, was In
structed to report this favorable action to
the Senate, with the recommendation
that the nomination be confirmed. Tins
was on Tuesday last, since when there has
been no executive session until this even
ing, when Mr.. Miller did as the commit
tee had directed him to do and reported
McGraw's appointment for confirmation.
Under the rules the case went over until
the next Executive session, when, II the
session is not too brief, or the calendar too
long. the Senate will dispose of the Me-
Graw nomination by confirming it.
1t is safe to assume, however, that this
will be done before the close of the coming
week al least. This action would have
been reached q month ago had it not been
for the illness of Senator Morrill, who Is
chairman of the committee and who has
charge of the case. 1t is said that this de-
eisiOn was made by the Republicans be-
u of their desire to Oblige the
two West Virginia Senators, who
have many social and personal
friends on that side of the chamber. Be
fore the close of next week Mr.. McGraw
will be the subject of cOngratulatiOn as the
opposition to his confirmation has been a
very persistent and violent one, so much
so that the Republicans have become pref
ty well informed rs to his personal integ-
rity and qualifications for discharging the
duties of the office. Many Of them be
came disguised and made up their minds
that there was good reason for sacrificing
him.
