RUSSIAN BATH,
Why the Turkish Bath Cures
Disease.

The causes of diseases are various. Poi
sonous and elIete matter in the blood, OBJ
structed circulation Of the blood, impaired
vitality, disturbed fuctions Of the vital or
gans; exhaustion OF brain aud nerve power,
suppressed action of the excretlng organs,
such as the skin, Kidneys, bowels, Nc.,
want Of nutrition, and impure blood are
among the producing causes OF disease.
There is no one agent that eXcrts sucl
powerful influence over these causes and
that is so capable of radically removing
them, as the Turkish Bath. The tissues OF
the body, as well as the elements OF the
blood, can be thoroughly cleansed ana
purified through this bath. the larger
portion Of the eflete matter OF the pouy
should be carried of through the pores OF
the skin. The bath eNcttes a healthy, Wig
orous action of the skin, and removes
thereby impurities from the body and blood.
The rubbing and manipulating given in
the bath are the principal influences In pro.

It seems that Baltimore lovers are not slow
in returning the compliment of clipping couples
who travel from II g capital to the Monumen'
tai City to be joined in wedlock and thus settle
all opposition to their union, and recently
quite n number have come here to have the
fuptial knot tied. The case below, taken from
the Baltimore Herald, Is the latest on record:
"There was anything but Joy in the house OF
Frank L. Davis, the architect, on Lafayette
square, when Miss Bessie a. Davis, his lS-year.
old daughter, a bewitohing brunette, came
home from Washington with MT. Samuel a,
Foster n young society man of this city, ana
announced herself as his newly.made bride ~,
"Mr Foster, who lives with his mother at lSJS
Madison avenue, has been secretly engaged 70
the fair Miss Davis for some time, and their
marriage in the near future was settled thing
in the hearts OF the ardent young lovers de-
posed ISd to 10 MT. Foster, and intended Miss Bessie
for a young Baltimore lawyer Mr.. Fosters
mother also wished her son to remain single
The lovers found in young lady aequaint
ance a mutual friend and ready and willing
listener and hearty sympathizer In their trou-
bles, and when Miss Davis went to spend a iew
DAYS with this friend J. q. week the coveted
opportunity for getting Inailied on the quiet
seemed to be within their grasp. Tho arrange
ments were soon completed, and Mr., Foster,
at The mutual friends house on Monday last.
Mis- Davis was ready, and after bidding her
: lady friend and Mr.. staley adieu In COMPANY,
1 was driven to Camden Station. whence they
! took train for Washington.
ARRIVING at the capital they, were met by
another cousin OF Mr.. Foster, and amer secur-

knot. MIR. and Mrs. Foster returned TO Balti-

closely scrutinized, this artificial Laying" is
usually sufficient to preclude detection.
One of these methods of transferring Is by
means of gelatlne, on which the design Is
carefully copied and then transferred upon
the etching ground by the usual process OF
acid baths. Another process, still more
artistic and giving higher degree OF exact
ness, involves the destruction of theg9nnlne
note The latter is fastened to the steel
plate by means known to the craft, and then
the "a or is soaked off. leaving the design,
slightly elevated on the plate, which IS then
subjected to the etching process, very much
in the way the finer grades of electrotypes
are made. OF course this counterfeit can be
readily distinguished from the work by hand
built takes al expert to do it. The general
public is usually taken in until the counter
felt is exposed
The professional counterfeiter rarely, If
ever, places his own work into circulation.
He sells to what is known as the second
party, and the latter in turn tothe shower"
or, layer down" Experienced detectives
claim that the second party" as rule,
pays about thirty per cent. of the face FOR
the queer" stuff, and he in turn sells to the
shower" at an advance Of from ID to ~
per cent. The "shovern generally travels
IN company with pal" who carries the
bulk of the queer" This is done in oruer
that If the counterf 1T is fastened upon the
shower" and his arrest follows, and no
other counterfeit is found on his person, it
relieves him in measure from the suspi-
cion of being PROFESSIONAL The prices
paid vary, of course, with the greater or
less degree Of workmanship in the counter
felt, and 50 is the manner of circulation
adapted to the circumstances Smaller
notes are pretty generally circulated with
out regard to unison in action. but if big
bills have to be fioated, arrangements are
made by which the bulk of the queer can be
put in circulation simultaneously to

erous places of each city. This is done to

A Candidate to Contest in the Con-

AUGUSTA, GA, July 16-At a conference
of leading republicans tonight it was de-
cided to put candidate in the field for
congress from this district to oppose Con
ton will not meet before the middle of next
month, but the names Mr.. Tweedy of Rich
mond county and Mr.. Crimson of Burke
county are spoken Of as candidates. Sew
eral OF the more conservative opposed the
idea, but Rev. w. j. White and other
colored leaders advocated it, giving the i'm
preston that it was the wish of the leaders
whom they had met in Chicago TO contest
for the positions if only to learn their
strength by the canvass. They are of the
opinion that the protection and free trade
question recently agitated in the state may
throw some following to them.
A call has been issued for a meeting of
the central committee of the state to Ebe
held at Atlanta on July %, when the
question Of putting a state ticket in the field
will be settled.
The committee of the district meets Sat
urday to make arrangements for the con-
gresSional convention. Mr. Tweedy seems
To- be the favorite candidate and his name
has been several times before mentioned for
the position.
Work was begun to-day on double track

BRUNSWICK'S BURGLARS.
TWO STARTLING EXPERIENCES IN
A NIGHT.

A Hand Clutch Broken by a Cracks
man After a Hard Struggle-A Band
of Boy Burglars Jailed at Atlanta
The Encampment at st. Simon's-
Lightning as Keen as Knife.
BRUNSWICK, GA, July 16.-Brunswick is
passing through a perfect reign of terror
on account of numerous burglaries. Every
night witnesses a half dozen. Money is the
only article wanted, and pants and vests
sre in every case taken out, rifled and
thrown down. The citizens are thoroughly
aroused, and in spite of the vigilant watch
kept by many the gang have 50 far eluded
capture. Last night Mitt Wells was awak-
ened by hand laid upon him and seized it.
1t came through an aperture made in the
blinds. The burglar struggled fiercely, and
at last got away Mr.. Wells is something
of an athlete, but says the intruder was too
much for him.
A REMARKABLE EXPERIENCE
Another remarkable occurrence was that
Of B. A. Fahm. who kept watch until day
light, and then lay down with his gun be-
side him He woke shortly after TO find
both his clothing and gun gone. The people
are so thoroughly aroused that the burglars
will certainly find dose of hot lead very
soon. A great danger now is that some in
nocent person, who may be out at an I'M
seemlv hour, may meet the same fate at the
hands of some impetuous person.

Prominent.
ATLANTA, GA, July l6.-John N. Dunn,
president of the Atlanta and Florida rail
road, and one of Atlanta's most public
spirited citizens, died at his home in the
west end this morning at Z o'clock. A
week ago last Saturday Mr.. Dunn, in com
pany with several friends, went down to
St Simon's island for a short season of
rest. He was feeling sick when he left
Atlanta and grew worse at the island. On
Tuesday last he returned home and has
been confined to his bed ever since. He was
suffering from some internal trouble which
caused the formation of an abscess on his
bladder. An operation was performed on
him last night to relieve him, but his
strength continued to fail until this
morning, when his death occurred. he
was the senior member of the firm Of John
N. Dunn & Co., wholesale grocery mer-
chants, and has been living in Atlanta since
1861 He was born and reared in Bradley
county, Tennessee. Mr.. Dunn was the
originator Of tho Atlanta and Florida rail
road. His object in building this road was
to secure lower freight rates to Atlanta by
thus starting competition. He will be
buried tomorrow in West View cemetery.
