The New York Tribune recent
ly charged that Representative S.
S. Cox, Of that city, was defraud-
ing the postal department by send
ing ont Democratic campaign litera-
ture under his frank, contrary to
law. MIR. Cox promptly denied
the charge. Democratic journals
commented upon 1t as a wicked
campaign lie, and the Tribune was
pu. 20 the proof. 1t promptly pro-
duced a four-pound package OF
campaign documents bearing Mr..
Cox's name, which had passed
through the mails. Mr.. Cox at
once pronounced his alleged sigma
ture a forgery.
We have not the slightest
doubt that Mr.. Cox tells the truth.
We do not believe he would lie
about it. We believe the sigma
ture en- this and other packages
were forged. But in generating
Mr.. Cox what does the investiga-
ton OF the matter also do? 1t
proves that somebody employed by
the Democratic National Committee
is forging the names OF Democratic
Congressman to cave postage on
Democratic campaign documents.
No subordinate Of the committee
would do this without instructions.
Mr.. Cox's denial, therefore, shows
that the Democratic National Com
mittee is not only defiauding the
postal department but is also guilty
OF a kind OF forgery that is punish
able by severe fine aud impriscn-
ment. Mr.. Cox certainly Owes il
to himself and TO the public to
bring this crime hone to the ofen-
ders.

SEVERAL times has General Har-
rison been charged with acts and
sayings really performed and said
by other Harrisons. At the begin
ming of the campaign there wac a
remark about religious denomina-
ton that turned out TO have been
made by Harrison, the "boy"
preacher, and recently in Illinois.
there has been a tempest in the
Democratic teapot over an alleged
remark about the Instantaneous
being fit for nothing but hewers Of
wood and drawers Of water. 1t
turns out that Carter Harrison, the
notorious Democratic Ex-Mayor of
Chicago was the Harrison who thus
maliened an excellent class Of
American citizens. 1t is about Car
ter Harrison's size; it il far to
small for . big-hearted American
gentleman like BENJAMIN Harrison.

wEo rs THE "UNKxowxp p,

Sporting circles are still puzzled
over the identity of the ssrnknown''
who is backed to fight Jake Kilrain
for So 900 side.
The APPEAL believes that Snlli-
van, who is now supposed to be ly-
ing sick at an Eastern Summer re-
sort, is the "Unknovn." The Pe-
lice Gazette has tried every way in
the world to belittle Sullivan and
exalt the horn of Kilrain, and the
News, q recently established sport
ing paper which is fighting the Ga
zettee, is Sullivan organ.
The APPEAL believes that the
proprietors Of the News, who put
up $1,000 on the "0hknown,"
have induced Sullivan to retire on
pretence of sickness to get Kilrain
to challenge the earth, surprising
Sullivan was about to die. 1t will
be noticed that as soon as the
stakes were up, Sullivan got better
very fast, and just before that he
was reported dying. 1t is not inn
probable that when Kilrain gets in
to the ring he will be confronted by
no less q man than John L. him
self.
The defeat Of Kilrain under such
would be q great set
back to Richard X. Fox and mis-
newly f1edged champion Kilrain.

A st. Louis physician says: "Tho
quinine habit is gaining strength every
day. Dizziness, that you hear innum-
erablc people complaining of in these
days, can be traced to the excessive use
of quinine. The good effects, that it is
nearly always certain of, are lost by cx-
cessive doses. Too much quinine will
also produce congestion of the ear and
vibration of the auditory nerves. The
growing habit of taking quininc for
neuralgia and other like complaints,
without consulting physician, is alto
gether reprehensible and may lead to
very serious results, Many cases of deaf
ness are produced by overdoses and
long continued use of the drug"

ing any gift that is in him, but n just

"Sec that lady moving along THERE"
said a gentleman standing in q crowd.
yesterday afternoon.
Tho lady to whom the gentleman re-
fcrred was q handsome. attractive
brunette. She was attircd in q bcauti-
full walking suit of gray silk, and be-
side her was a boy of Is years, who
was her only son.
"Thcre is q sensational story about
her" said: the! gentleman who had
directed tho attention of the party to-
ward the lady.
And this was the story as lie told it:
The lady is nov a resident of At
lanta. and her husband is we'll known
us N of the best commercial tourists
of the south. They have been living
IN Atlanta only a few months. Be-
fore coming to Atlanta their home was
in Augusta. and it was there that tho
sensational story about her had its
origin. And tho existence of that
story had much to do with their re-
moval to Atlanta.
just before the recent flood in
Augusta the lady vas quite ill. Her
illness bafflcd the best physicians of
the city, and upon two or three oc-
casions her death was momcntarily
expected. During all this time the
lady remained perfectly conscious and
freely convcrscd with the doctors
about herself. From them she asccr-
tained that her condition was somc-
thing new in their profession. Ono
day, when two of tho most eminent
physicians of the city were sitting be-
side her bed, she turned to one, say
ing:
SDoctor. my case puzzles you all.
doesn't it?'
sit does, indeed" replied the doctor,
..and We have v seen anything
like it before"
.'Thcn," said the lady, ..my case
would be q study after I am dead,
would it not?"
.'What do you mcanP" asked the
doctor.
81 mcan." said the lady, ..tllat if
you could get my body after l am dead
and study the case medical science
might be benefited"
at would, indeed" replied the
doctor. a bright smile spreading over
his face.
Tho lady then astonisllcd tho two
gentlemen by Offering to give them
her body after death. At first the
physicians would not listen to the
proposition, but the lady insisted, and
calling her husband, consulted with
him about the matter in the pres
cnce of tho doctors. Tho lady i'm
sisted, and finally succeeded in over
riding not only the objection of her
husband, but that of tho physicians
who sided with him.
That evening a lawyer was sent for
and n deed of gift of her body to the.
physicians to DO used for scientific
purposes was made out and signed.
After the signing the lady appeared.
happier and better than she had for
weeks. On the next day she began to
improve, and in a short time aston
ished all by getting we'll.
After recovering her health she be-
came uneasy about the deed of gift
she had signed, and Notwithstanding
the fact that the deed was returned to
her. finally prevailed upon her hus-
band to move awav from Augusta,
saying that she feared her body would
be taken from the grave il she were
buried in that place.
''Since then" said the gentleman in.
conclusion, 'that lady has q holy hor-
rOr Of doctors. "--AtidntG Constitution.

Mutual Error.

Working Boy: Jones went to the deaf
and dumb aaylum the other day to in.
spect the institution. Upon entering he
encountered man evidently an inmate.
and he at once endeavOrcd to explain to
the man by making signs upon his fingers
that he wanted to look through the insti-
tuition. The man also made signs which
Jones could not comprehend. Then Jones
made other and more elaborate signs,
which set the man at work with great
violence. and for the next ten minutes
they stood In tho hall ~gesticulating and
twisting their fingers without being able
to comprehend what the other meant.
Finally Jones got angry, and in an out
burst Of wrath exclaimed:
.Oh. get out, you IDIOT I am tired of
bothering with you"
Whereupon the man said, ssThat's lust
what l was going to say to you"
ooh, you can speak, can your Then
why didn't you say SO. and not keep me

to inspect the asylum and took you for a

man.
Here Jones and the man shook hands.
and went in search of q genuine attend
amt.
