STRANGELY FASCINATING.
Unpleasant Effect of n Picture on Scores OF

Unpieasant Eject OF n Picture on scores OF
rag.. NJ Women.
LoNDos, Oct, 1S-A sensation has
been aroused in Berlin by the exhibi-
ton of new pictorial representation of
Christ Before PLATE" The painting
is by a'Russian artist named Nicolai.
Its powerful realism may be inferred
from the fact that scores Of women have
fain ted at the sight Of it. The picture,
though humble, is strangely fascinat-
ing, and the salon where it is displayed
is continually crowded to suffocation-
The subject is treated from an entirely
different conception to that of Num-
kacsy in his famous painting bearing the
same title. The work is pronounced by
critics to be vastly inferior to the latter
from an artistic point OF view, but yet it
possesses a remarkable power which
can hardly be attributed to simple
realism

FIXING THE FORFEITS.
Chief Brown Prepares n Schedule of the
Cash Deposits TO be Received.

Cash Deposits 10 be Received.
Mayor Gourley, after several consultations
with Chief Brown and Aldermen Gripp and
McKenna, has decided that the order issued
last Wednesday by Chief Brown was entire
ly too sweeping. The Mayor has decided to
allow the acceptance of forfeits at police sta
tions, and yesterday directed Chief Brown
to prepare a schedule of amounts to be &C.
cepted in different cases.
To a reporter for The DISPATCH the
Mayor said yesterday: "Your money is bet
ter than my bond. The refusal OF cash de-
posits would, II see. often work hardships.
A man from Greensburg, whom 1 know to
be good citizen at home, came here three
weeks ago and got drunk. He was arrested,
but had his pockets full of money. Had he
been required to produce bond
he might have been unable to do
so, as 1 know that he has verv
few acquaintance in this city. The
absolutely rigid enforcement of the law does
sometimes work hardships. 1t seems to me
to be proper that the Chief or the inspectors
should have authority to release prisoners
under certain circumstances. I have no
objection to the exercise OF that privilege.
l did not mean that Chief Brown should
issue an order as extensive in its meaning as
he did, but he followed the strict construc-
tion Of my note to him. 1t was simply a
case of misunderstanding"
Chief Brown has sent out a resembling
order, fixing the following schedule of for
feits for various offenses: Drunkenness, SIS;
disorderly conduct, $50; keeping disorderly
house, S105. These are the same figures OBJ
served formerly. There has, however, been
no fixed figure for keeping a disorderly
house. The maximum fine is 500 and the
S. is intended to cover the costs.

Indigestion

is not only distressing complaint, of
itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway
Centre, Mich
oliver complaint and indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years / suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
All. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that took seemed to do
any permanent good until I commenced
the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa-
rilla 1 could see an improvement in my
condition. Ny appetite began to return
and with it came the ability to digesV
all the food taken, my strength inn
proved each day, and after few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, 1 found myself a well
woman, able to attend to all household
duties. The medicine has given me a
new lease of lfe."
