For over twelve years my son has been affict
cd with spasms; he would have one every two
weeks until about six months ago, then even two
week We took him to number of first-class
physicians and we tried everything and any
number of remedies without deriving any en-
couragement in his case, and had commenced
to despair of ever being able to cure him at all,
when we heard of Pastor Koenig's Nerve Tonic
and concluded to give it trial The result has
more than satisfied usi 1t is more than three
months since he commenced to take this Nerve
Tonic and he has never been sick since Please
accept our most sincere thanks, for we feel that
you have not only cured him of great affiction
but have saved his life well, as we do not
think he would have lived long in the condition
he was in before he commenced taking your VAL
liable remedy MRS. NJ MOLONY.

Some years ago western bank
failed for a large amount. During
legal proceedings growing out Of
the failure it was shown that trus.
ted employe OF the bank had
known for some time of fraudulent
transactions ON the part the SUI
psrior officers, and had aided them
to conceal the crookedness from
the public aud even from the OIL
cial bank examiner. The employe
was exonerated on the ground that
he was only obeying orders and was
under obligations to do as he was
told. But some time later the en-
ploye sought clerkshlp in the gov
eminent departments IN Washing
ton. He was extremely capable aud
place was found where he did ex
cellent service. But immediately
this question was raised Could a
person who had knowingly assisted
in fraudulent practices while
hank clerk be permitted to assist in
keeping the records of the depart
ments of the government of the
United States where scrupulous
honesty aud exactness were neces-
sary ? The decision was against
the clerk, aud he was summarily
dismissed. Served him right, too.
A person who would knowingly as
sist in sWindling operations, even
when his bread and butter depend
ed on it, could never be safely in
trusted again with funds belonging
20 others.
An exactly similar case has lately
come up in connection with another
bank failure. As far back as ten
years ago the assistant cashier help
ed to hide the bank presidents
stealinRs by making false entries
till the thefts amounted to $500, 600.
Never, never again should such a
man have any place of trust. Pub
lie opinion ought to hunt him to
the farthest corner OF the earth aud
punish him. lie might indeed be
permitted to carry q hod to keep
the breath of life in his false body,
If il vas worth keeping, which Is
doubtful, bat to handle money or
transact business-nesermore. He
could not even be trusted t. be
hostler. since it would be possible
for him to steal the horses feed and
falsify the returns.

The Ticket.

The ticket nominated to day by
the Democratic County Convention
is one of the best, under all the cir
cumstances that could have posSi-
bly been made. The interests of
every faction was taken into con-
sideration and many concessions
and sacrifices were made by candi-
dates who had fairly carried their
districts in the interest and for the
Cancellation Of their party. Taking
it as a whole the ticket is q strong
one and no reasonable Democrat
should find fault. Some, no doubt
have been disappointed IL not get
ting on the ticket themselves or
in seeing their friends on, but this
is the natural outcrop of all pollti-
cal conventions. The candidate for
State Senator, Robert Moss, Is a
young man, full of ambition, and
will make, if elected, good repro.
sentative. He was bern in the
Third district of Anne Arundel
county, May "a, 1868; was educated
g. the Maryland Agricultural Col
lege. Studied law and was admit
ted to the bar in 1885, after passing
a satisfactory examination, and has
practiced his profession with con-
siderable ability and success. The
ticket is one that should receive the
undivided support of the entire par
tv.

Is popularity supposed to consider no letter
completely than anywhere Else. The author
of ''In Club Corner; tells several stories
which seem to indicate that there have
been occasions on which members of the
stronger sex have made use of the post
script to convey the most important part
of the message. He says:
A spy named Palmer, sent by Sir Henry
Clinton, the British commander, had been
detected furtively collecting information
of the force and condition of the post at
peekskill, and had undergone a military
trial.
A vessel of war came up the Hudson in
all haze, and landed flag OF truce at Yer
planck's point, by which message was
transmitted to Putnam rom Clinton,
claiming the said Palmer rs lieutenant
in the British service. Putnam replied:
Headquarters, 7tE August, 177. Ed
ward Palmer, an officer in the enemy's
service, was taken as a spy lurking within
our lines He has been tried as a spy, and

AN EXPLOSION ON BROADWAY.
An Attack on Russell Sage for Refusing
to Pay Over 81 100000.

New YORK, December 5.-An explo-
sion at No. II Broadway wrecked the
first and second floors Of the Arcade
building, on the Rector street side,
and also the windows of the Manhat-
tan elevated railway company, the
offices of Russell Sage, Washington E.
Conner and a number of Others De-
tails Of casualties not yet reported.
A lunatic went into the Office of Rus
sell Sage and demanded 81, 250,00 or
he would blow up the building. Be-
ing refused he threw dynamite bomb
in the office of Mr.. Sage and caused
the explosion.
The man who threw the bomb is
dead as is also one of the clerks in the
office. Mr.: Sage's injuries are not con-
sidered dangerous.
The building at II Broadway is one
Of the largest Office structures in the
metropolis and is the headquarters OF
many large financial concerns.
Never in the history of the metrop
oils has an event occurred that for
the time caused more excitement in
Wall street and lower Broadway. Fully
$4,000 people were drawn to the scene
Of the explosion, and for an hour the
police were powerless to bring order
out of chaos. There were number
of others very badly injured t by eh
explosion.
The story of the plot on Mr.. Sage's
life goes far back. Russell Sage, Jr.,
talked freely about it at the house,
before the injured man was brought
home He said that of late Mr.. Sage
had received three or four threatening
letters, signed by one James Walsh.
In them the writer demanded 1920,
000
