The many thousands of our readers who
have been benefited by the remarkable
skill of DIR. Flower will be pleased to know
that the Spectator Publishing Company, of
Boston, Mass, have just issued beautiful
new pamphlet containing, among other In
teresting matter, a record of many recent
cures wrought by DIR. Flower on prominent
personages. These cures are in many in
stances startling in their nature, having
been performed after the highest authori-
ties and most learned representatives OF the
old school of practice had pronounced the
fat Of doom, and declared them to be be-
You'd the limit of the durable. So marvel
Gus are these strange stories OF lives res
cued from the Jaws of the grave, that, were
they not related by the individuals them
selves with their names and addresses
given, and in many instances the parties be-
ing distinguished persOnageS, who are
noted and known far and near, one would
almost imagine he was in the midst of
some oriental tale with the sweet fascina-
ton ofthe miraculous and the mystery of
the mystic hanging Ger him.
In addition to the above, this pamphlet
contains an interesting article from recent
issue of the New Haven Register on Dr.
Flowers strange power of diagnosing,
where by sympathetic intuition, he is en-
abled to describe the exact condition of the
internal organism of any person, and de-
scribe his disease, its rise, progress, and the
attending symptoms tar more accurately
than the patient himself could give them,
and this without asking the patient ques-
ton. This power accounts, to a very great
extent for the doctors phenomenal success
in treating his thousands of patients, a
large per cent of whom are treated in their
homes, hundreds and thousands of miles
from Boston.
There is also in this little book a striking

as to the relative value of Cod Liver Oil and

and flesh, the other giving nerve power, and
acting as a tonic to the digestive and entire

Liver Oil with Hypophosphites the two are
combined, and the effect is wonderful.
Thousands who have derived no permanent

Special Telegram to the Statesman.
LIBERTY HILL, October 24.-The light
frost last night will have tendency to
hasten the opening of the top crop, and
three weeks of dry weather will enable
everyone to finish picking. About three
fourths of the crop has been ginned and
marketed.
More wheat is being sown here this fall
than for several years past. Farmers are
plowing it in with rush.
A roller mill is being talked of, and will
doubtless be built in the near future.
The political pot is boiling hot. We
are only waiting until November to

GEORGETOWN, October 24.-Our section
was visited by light frost last night
which will be liable to cut off the top crou
of cotton.
Extensive preparations are still in
progress for our big democratic barbecue
and "blow-out" on next Saturday. Gov
ernor Ross, Attorney-general Hogg and
Hon. Joseph d. Sayers will entertain the
immense throng of people present with
their eloquence. Excursion rates have
been secured from the railroads, and
everybody for fifty miles around will be
IN attendance upon that occasion.
At the last meeting of our Cleveland
and Thurman club Hon. @. r. Gibson, of
Austin, was present, and entertained the
club with a good, solid democratic talk,
and hit the Independents straight out
from the shoulder. Mr.. Gibson's remarks
brought forth rounds of applause.
The independents of our county are
looking very disconsolate, and we'll they
may, for old Williamson is going to elect a
straight democratic ticket, and give Hon.
Bart. @. Giles, nominee for state senator,
a majority of at least 1,500.

A MAN WITH AN ALIAS.

An Individual Arrested at Waco Wanted
in Two Northern Cities.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.
WACO, October PA short time ago q
man was arrested here by Constable Lee
Jenkins as one who answered the descrip-
tion of Chas. Weimar, alias Myer, alias
Grossen, who was wanted in Milwaukee,
Wis, for embezzlement. Word was JIM
mediately telegraphed TO the authorities
in that city, and to- day Chief of Police
Shilke, of Milwaukee, arrived in Waco,
having first gone to Austin to secure the
necessary requisition papers. Mr.. Shilke
confronted the man and discovered that
his real name was Otto Zottemau.
The prisoner stated to the officer
that some time ago he had been
employed as travelling salesman for
Leonard d Co., cigar manufacturers, of
Evansville, Ind, and while in their employ
had embezzled 5000. o. this crime it
appears the man is guilty, as a telegram
has been received from Evansville to the
effect that this is the man wanted there
Whether Zotteman is the right party that
is wantt in Milwaukee is not certain as
yet, but a thorough investigation upon
this matter will be had. There is a re-
ward offered for the right man from both
cities.

DYNAMITERS,
Attorney general Webster Charges
that the British Dynamiters
Came From America,
And Charges Parnen Was Asso-
clated With Egan, Ford and
Other Extreme Leaders.

LONDON, October 25.-At the re-assem-
bling of the Parnell commission to-day,
Attorney-general Webster resumed his
address in behalf of the Times. He dila-
ted on relations between the Parnellites
and members of the American League
He contends that the league originated in
America, and declared it was a conspiracy
Matched in America and effected by its
American members. Members of the
league in America we're dynamiters and
advocates of murder, and they had
the Parnellites as accomplices. He de-
nounced Finnerty, Redpath and Rosa as
dynamiters who had plotted for the most
villainous forms of outrage. He said i,
was absurd to say Parnell had no
relations with Patrick Ford as the facts
proved an intimate connection between
the two.
He referred to the Irish World, the Chi.
oago Citizen and Boston Pilot as papers
which spoke the sen imeDts and revealed
the aims of both the Parnellites and the
League in America. Patrick Ford, he
declared, was the proprietor of both the
Land and National Leagues. Brennan,
Sheridan, Breslin, Condor and Dewey
were branded criminals, who were asso-
ciated together on purpose to further
crime. FinerSy, Rtdpath and Rosso were
dynamiters who had plotted for
the most villainous form of
outrage. The Parnellite party
joined these men in agitating among
lri5h-Americans a manifesto issued by
the league in America in April, 1881, de-
claripg "that we shall band ourselves to-
gether till landlordism, root and branch,
is dead aud buried" and signed by Par
nell, Davitt, Brennan, Eagan and William
O'Sullivan. Patrick Ford's name was not
there, but it was absurd to say that Par
nell had no relations with him, as a host
of facts proved the intimate connection
of the two.
The attorney general then proceeded to
quote from articles eight communications
taken from the Irish World to prove the
connection of the Parnell party with the
extreme section of the Irish party in
America. He continued TO dwell on the
misdoings of the League in America and
the Philadelphia and Boston conventions
until the court adjourned for the day.
The attorney general did not hit upon
a single uew point to day, aud his speech
exceeded in duilness his efforts of tue pre-
ceding days.

An Earnest and Housing Speech by Our
Distinguished Ex-Governor.

AN Earnest and Rouslng Speech by Our
Distinguished Ex-Governor.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.
Waco, October 25.-The large aud
spacious district court room was filed to
its utmost capacity tonight by people,
who had gathered to hear Senator Coke
speak. The imposing form of the sena-
tor arose to'speak amid cheers and shouts
from the audience. He expressed him
self as glad to be along and see again his
old friends and fellow citizens, and said:
1--WE are in the midst of the most tre-
mendous political contest that has been
waged since the war;"
He was confident that the democratic
party would win this election. The
speaker said they may talk about mush-
room parties, noI-partisan, prohibition
and union labor parties, but they are not
to be mentioned on the same day with the
grand old democratic party that comes to
US with the wisdom of Jefferson, Monroe
and jackson, not like these parties with
out issue and financial policies. Senator
coke SAID:
"If you go to Washington and ask for
union labor member, they will tell you
there is none, and if you ask for pro-
hibition member you will be told there is
none at present, but there was one or two
a few years ago, and these have now turned
democrats, and to ask for non-partisan
member you might as well inquire for a
female man or q white crow"
He said: "If you send man to congress
from this state who was not q democrat,
he would take TO the republicans there as
nsturally as duck takes 20 water. In
thiassntest between the two,great pgrties
there was one great iseue, and that was
the tariff issue, the democratic party
holding one side and the republicans the
other, and there was no room for these
side-issue parties The Mills bill was the
great issue before tho people in this CON
test vote for Mills Senator Coke paid q
splendid tribute to Hon. r. Q. Mills and
said that the people here could not afford
to vote against or allow his majority to
be reduced, as this would be the means of
setting back the tariff reform dozen
years. He said to the worklngmen:
"For Gods sake stand by the demo-
cratic party in this one fight; that they
were fighting for cheap clothing, cheap
food, and against those who have grown
rich from the blood and the sInews of the
laboring man."
The speaker said that the Mills bill was
not all that the democratic party wanted,
but it was the best thing they could get
now and was step in the right direction.

man, but if they would let him go he
would never do so again.
Immediately a gfeat racket was raised
by the crowd and they demanded his re-
lease, and cries of "Hang him! Shoot him!
Burn him" filled the air. After the crowd
had become quiet the officers started with
him to jail at Kaufman. They had got
about mile on the road, when, on cross
ing small creek, body of armed and
masked men overpowered them and took
the negro and hung him to bois dare
tree standing near, and then shot him in
several places.
The verdict of the jury of inquest was
that the deceased had come to his
death at the hands of some unknown per-
sons. His remains we're brought back to
town and left exposed to view an hour
before he was taken away. The colored
people would not let his body be buried in
their graveyard. The crime was COM
mitted yesterday about 4:30 and he was
hung to-day at LILO O'Clock. The negros
name was Sam Smith and his residence
was Dallas.
