a very bad discharge from her head and nose of a

prescribe for her, but without benefit. We tried
Ely's Cream Balm, and much to our surprise in
three days there was marked improvement. In
a short time the discharge was apparently cured.

To Save Life
Frequently requires prompt action. An
hours delay waiting for the doctor may
be attended with serious consequences,
especially in cases of Group, Pneumonia,

Hence, no family should be without

cases, the best Emergency Medicine
ever discovered. 1t gives prompt relief
and prepares the way for thorough
cure, which is certain to be effected by
its continued use.

Pectoral perfect cure for Group IN all

THE RUCKER INTERVIEW.
Denied by the President and by Sena.
tor Blackburn.

The President has denied the truth of the
reported interview between himself and Judge
Rucker, in which the President was quoted as
stating, a week or so before the election, that
Hill, Grant and Hewitt would defeat him in
New York.
Senator Blackburn, in whose presence the
interview was said to have occurred, says in an
interview that he hopes Judge Rucker did not
authorize the statement as it is untrue. He
says: Il took Mr.. Rucker, an eX-Kentuckian,
and introduced him to the President at his own
request. 1t was not one week, but several
weeks before the election. The interview
lasted but a few minutes, there being no bust
ness to transact. The President mentioned
neither Mr.. Hewitt's nor Mr.. Grants name, nor
did any one else. The President never hinted
however remotely, at any suspicion that he
was to be traded off or foully dealt with by any
one, either in New York or anywhere else. On
the contrary, he spoke hopefully of the out
look but added substantially that he was pre-
pared to abide any verdict that the people
might see fit to render. He did refer to the
political situation in New York, expressing a
hope that matters would be harmonized and
Strengthened ont to our satisfaction"

successful bidders for furnishing eight-inch
curb to the District. During the months of
August, September, and October they fur
nished curb TO the amount of SASS 49, and
now refuse to furnish any more until paid for
that. The matter has been referred to the
engineer department.. The check for the
amount has been sent to the company.
Auditor Petty stated to a STAR reporter to-
day that there had been no delay in the
matter.
