Takes 1000 people to buy
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy,
at SO cents a bottle, to make
up $500.
One failure to cure would
take the profit from 1000
sales.
It's makers profess to cure
cold in the head" and even
chronic catarrh, and if they
fail they pay $500 for their
over-confldence,-
Not in newspaper words
but In hard ASST Think of
what confidence it takes to
put that in the papers and
mean it.
It's makers believe in the
Remedy. Isn't it worth a
trial7 Isn't any trial prefer
able to catarrh ?
After all, the mild agencies
are the best. Perhaps they
work more slowly, but they
work surely. DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets are an act5Os
agency but qu1et and mild
They're sugar-coated, easy to
take, never shock nor derange
the system and half their pow
er is in the mild way in which
their work is done. Small
est, cheapest, easiest to take.
One a dose. Twenty-Five cents
a vial. Of all druggists.

sat shivering in the dock. Mr. Winfield
concluded by turning full to the jury and
saying
you, and it is for you TO say whether TINS
man shall go at large upon the commun-
ity or to the scaffold and expiate hls
crime.
THE JUDGES CHARGE.
In charging the jury, Judge Knapp said,
after he had explained the different
grades OF murder:--''I need not say that
this case is one of serious importance-
The enforcement of criminal law has as
much respect for the safety of society ~
1t has for the punishment of lawbreakers.
1t is the only mode by which society can
perform its duties and protect its citizens
in life and property. And when life ID
the subject of inquiry, when the crime
alleged has been that of the destruction
of life. it rises to the highest grade of pub
lie importance.
Concerning Sinot's testimony the
Court said that if the witness statements
were true there was no doubt Whatever
but that the defendant caused the death
of his wife. The declaration of the wife
TO the shoemaker after she had run down
stairs must be given due weight As
suming that her speech is correctly told
to US, and assuming that she used these
words at the time she received the injury,
it comes to be as important as if it was the
testimony of another witness. When time
has elapsed those declarations of deceased
lose, not only their value but their point.
When there has been time to reflect and
when the transaction is in the past, all
the words uttered by the deceased are
mere recitals of a past transaction. Then
the law excludes them;they are no longer
evidence.
What she said to Francis Whelan is
part of the res gestde. When she spoke
tn him If or or had a n fo 10
room of the man below. 1t was not OBJ
jected to; it went into the case and stands
there as if it were part of the res gest0e.
1t certainly is not of the same
value as the exclamation made while she
was suffering from the injury. Time
had elapsed so as to permit thought and
change.
There is other evidence that declara-
tions were made in the hospital. Dying
declarations are admissible from the nee
essity of the case. They are admissible
when person is under a sense OF inn
pending death. The testimony may be-
recei we'd when such a person has been by
the property authority told that death Is
impending.
s'The condition of the room should be
considered also, and where the fire was
and to determine whether the lamp fell
fell from his hnnds or was thrown. II
the defendants statement is true
he is innocent. If the States
theory is true, it is idle to
talk of manslaughter. 1t is murder, the
degree is for you to determine II he in
tended to take her life it is murder in the
first degree; but if you find it was only to
do bodily harm it is murder in the second
degree.'
At twenty-five minutes of twelve
O'Clock the jury retired to consider the
evidence. The prisoner guarded by
several constables remained in the court
room with his sister, Mrs. Margaret Cal
houn, who continually wept.

An Organized Raid on the
City Liquor Dealers
in Preparation.
MIKE O'MARA AT WORK
The Street And Water Board to
be the instrument Of the
RaSeality.
A Lively Day in City Politics
Good Republican Work.

Mike O'Mara has actually put in one
day and part of anothergat work. He
was busy copying in the lobby of City
Clerk Scott's office yesterday and this
morning The list that was engrossing
his pen and.hls attention was the list OF
liquor dealers He never worked SO in
dustriously on anything in his life-ex-
cept when he set out TO find General
Grubb's Doodle just before the last cleo
tomas he has in transcribing the names
and addresses from the City Clerks book
to his private sheets of foolscap.
"Hal at work, Mixer" was the greeting
THE NEWS reporter gave him. ssThat's a
pleasant surprised And on the liquor list,
too. Humphl What are you going to do
with it when you have copied it?'
turned. nervously. "The Board Of Works
Office. mean, you know. You see there
are nearly nine hundred liquor saloons in
the CITY, The city is entitled to S. from
every one of them that uses water behind
the bar, and they all have TO use water,
you know. Some water, anyhow. Most
of them have outhouses where water is
used. The easiest way for the city to get
at them is to copy their names and adj
dresses from Mr.. Scott's license list, and
I'm doing IL. We're going to make them
pay up"
This display of public spirit by the Ring
is probably prompted by the discovery
that the liquor men are going to fight the
Ring this fall?" suggested the reporter.
"Oh, no; no politics in it," Mike re-
turned with sickly smile. "It's all for
the dear people"
HAS the Board of Works ever before
had the list of liquor dealers copied for
any such purpose as Mara fndicates?'
City Scott was asked by the reporter.
Never within my recollection" was
Mr.. Scott's reply.
1t has been noised abroad that the
liquor men, disguised BY the expressions
10 which the police have subjected them,
have decided to join in the fight against
the Ring. The Rings method of fighting
is to use its official power to keep down
opposition to its wicked rule. Some of
the gentlemen who were interested in the
Citizens, movement We're threatened with
severe and onerous tax bills unless they
withdrew from it, Now it is the liquor
audacious independence.
inent member of the Liquor Dealers AS
sociation after leaving the City Hall, and
told him of Mikes sudden attack of in
dustry and his reason therefore. The
liquor dealer looked serious and said that
lie had no doubt that the copy of the list
was being prepared for political purposes.
The greater part of the liquor dealers
throughout the city. he said, had paid
their water rents, and the list could not
be wanted for that purpose. Besides, the
Water Department had q list OF all the
saloonkeepers, from which it made out it's

SILK STOCKINGS WIN.
The Minkakwa Ticket Wins the
Day in the Sixth.

The Tenth precinct of the Sixth district
was the scene of probably the liveliest
contest of the primaries. The precinct,
which is comprised of the SWEETEST portion
OF Greenville, sports two clubs--the
famous Minkakwa and the infamous
Globe, If the Minkakwas are to be be-
lfeved. The Minkakwa, it is said,
mas among its members many
men who would not attend an
evening reception unless attired
in the conventional black claw hammer
and immaculate white tie, while on the
roll or membership of the Globe are the
names OF several who would go to ball
In pea jacket and chocolate colored kids
and be prepared to slug the person who
said they were improperly arrayed. This
may be untrue. but it is the manner in
which the Minkakwa's draw the line
between the two organizations.
1t is true, however, that there
is a deadly rivalry between the
two clubs for control of the precincts,
and SO both sides came to the primary
with blood in their eyes. The primary
was held in the Minkakwa club house
and this, the Globes claim. hoodooed
them. The contest, although fiercely
ragged with the mouth, was bloodless and
at its close the two factions went around
to the Belvidere House aud spent the rest
of the night IN drinking beer and seeing
which faction could yell the loudest.
The most exciting episode of the con-
test happened when Constable Dilioway
q Globite, came up to vote. He was chal-
lenged by Eddie Schultz, the crack bowl
er of the Jersey City Athletic Club and
brother of ex-Alderman Michael Schultz.
Eddie declared that Dilloway had
worked for the election Of Sheriff Davis,
and intimared that Dilloway was q mem
ber of the Republican annex to the Ring
Dilloway, when he had recovered from
his righteous indignation at this accusa-
ton swore, in the presence of
about forty witnesses, that he had
never voted or worked for Democrat in
his life. His vote was accepted after
that. The MiHkakwa ticket won by
vote of IS to 45.

The members of the various Registry
Boards applied to City Clerk Scott yester-
day morning for supply Of stationery

precincts for all eligible voters.
The full boards met at various

Board sat in the Aldermanic chamber
during the day to fill vacancies caused by
designations and failure to comply with

REPUBLICAN, PRIMARIES
Davis Heeler, Ramsey,
Crushed by Respectable
Voters in the First.

The Republican primary in the First
district resulted, last night, disastrously
for General John Ramsey and his Repub-
lican-Democratic Ring machine ticket
By a vote of 100 to 81 the General was
overthrown in his district leadership in
the Republican County Committee, and
John Brennan was installed in his place.
II was victory for honest Republicans.
1t was victory for honest Democrats. 1t
was a victory, too, for Captain John
Graham. In the vernacular of an ardent
admirer Of the Captain:-"Captain, you
were en- dorsed."
1t is said the General fairly raved Satur-
day night when Graham's name was sug
gested as one OF the County Committee
lnen to serve two years. What! such
distinction TO be conferred upon that
sleuth-hound whose effective work had
done so much toward introducing Boo
Davis ballot box stuffersl Too much for
the General. He would show them who
was running the district.
The General appeared upon the scene
last night with q pair of beautifully
tinted eyelids and a face embellisheu
with artistic decorations after the man
ner of man who has attempted q
''scrap" with Sullivan. The General said
he fell down. That's how the General
said he broke his face. But there Is con-
siderable speculation rs TO who trlpped
him Some guy remarked it was Frank
Sutherland, anda faint, murmuring echo
suggests a scrap at Rfch's
But the General was all there, so to
speak. He paladed up and down the
street in front of Cohbler Nathan's dilapi-
dated little shanty with the air OF u
painted Modoc amidst the familiar scenes
of past conquests.

The air was full of Indian war whoops
and Captain Jacks whoop was heard

down upon the shanty to rescue the Ram
