Sudden Deaths.

Heart disease is by far the most
frequent cause OF sudden death,
which in three out OF four cases is
unsupported. The symptoms are
not generally understood. These
are: a habit of lying on the right
side, short breath, pain or distress
in side back or shoulder, irregular
pulse, asthma, weak and hungry
spells, wind in stomach, swelling OF
ankles or dropsy, oppression, dry
cough and smothering. DR.. Miles

AN EYE WITNE SS.

"Well," said the judge, "This is
the room where two days ago the
horrible murder was committed
Justice in this case has travelled
quickly. Armande Dufot," he con-
tinued, turning to young man of
some twenty-six years, who stood
before him pale and clothed in deep
est mourning, "do you still persist
in denying the assassination of your
uncle ?"
81 do, sir.
"Yet'-and here the official steno-
grapher bent toward to his notes
while his pencil commenced its rapid
travel-"yet it is known that the
late Monsieur Dufiot had not sim
gle personal enemy. You were
among the few, the very few, with
whom he was ON terms of intimacy.
1t is said that his affection for you
was more like that of a father for
son. Notwithstanding his great
wealth he spent but little; careful
steward of the goods with which he
was endowed. From an inspection
of his methodically kept accounts it
appears that you drew frequently
upon his purse. We find, on the date
of the 10th of February, this note
TO my nephew, 900 francs for pay
ment of gambling debt contracted
by him. On the 9Th of March &C.
ours: TIE my nephew, $50 francs
for payment of gambling debt On
the 10th of September we read 81
$50 francs for payment Of a gam
bling debt. And so on.
II have in my possession a men,
orandum Of the total years expendi-
ture for similar items. Prior to
this, in order to establish you in
Paris, he had at different times (the
dates are specifed) advanced the
sum of Is 900 francs. His generosi-
ty, at least, bears witness to your in
telligence; ample means were provid
ed you to insure your easy and GER
tain progress in the world, but evil
passions, gambling and other vices
led you dissipate them all. Your
uncle was an old man, close upon
his SEVENTEEN year, yet exceptional
ly vigorous and robust, experiencing
the benefit of an honest, healthy life.
AS for you, man of indolent habits
and luxurious tastes, hopelessly in
volved in debt, with no energy for
work, it was but natural thas you
should look toward to his DEATH"
SIN short" interrupted Armande
Dufot, with smile, "as his last hour
did not sound, l have with thrust
Of my thumb moved toward the
hands of the clock
The judge, for one moment, look
ed at him through the half closed
lids of his small gray eyes.
"Of course he said, "the thumb
thrust in this case is but figure of
speech. The reality is this /: That

Five Ways to Cure a Cold.

]. Battle the feet in hot water
and take pint of hog lemonade.
Then sponge in salt water and re-
main in warm room 9. Battle
the face in very hot water every FIVE
minutes for an hour. 3. Snuff up
the nostrils hot salt water every
three hours. 4. Inhale ammonia
or menthol. S. Take for hours &C
tive exercise in the air. A ten-grain
dose Of quinine will usually break
up cold in the beginning. Any
thing that will set the blood in active
circulation will do it, whether it be
drugs or the use of bucksaw.

Dewar, and such it proved to be-"
Mr.. Milchrist said of the result of the
experiment: 1T fastens the chain of
evidence securely around Gibson, and
makes it possible to indict him for at
tempted arson"
The fact that any thing was delivered
to Dewar besides the fluid is denied by
some. Attorney Milchrist is authority
for the following: "In the package de-
livered to Dewar by Gibson was a sec
ton of a gun barrel charged with pow
der. On top of the powder was a steel
projectile about two inches long. This
was placed in a tin can, around it was
closely packed oakum and cotton.
Through the oakum and cotton ran a
fuse to the nipple of the gun. The fluid
was to be poured on the fuse, which
would ignite the oakum and cotton"
George J. Gibson, the secretary of
the whisky trust, is in Cleveland, o.,
awaiting results, was the information
received at Marshal Hitchcock's Office
this morning. Some time afterwards
the officials began discussing the proba-
bility of Gibson escaping to Canada. A
certain Federal officer high in authority
said: "Mr. Gibson will have to go
farther than Canada to escape us. Our
extradition treaties with our English
neighbors are the most liberal of any.
If Gibson wants to escape the punish
ment that is sure to come he must go
to Europe. No, we will not attempt to
dog him. 1t will be an easy matter to
get him back"
superintendent Tubbs, of the West
ern Union Telegraph Company, held
short conference with the district at
torney yesterday morning. 1t is be-
ieved Uncle Sans officers are endeav-
oring to secure Gibson's kilograms from
that Company to be used as evidence
against the whisky trust man.
Ordinarily these kilograms would
cut but little figure as to testimony"
said Captain Stuart, but it must be re-
membered that every time Gibson en-
tered telegraph office he was watched,
and that every telegram that he wrote
was indited upon blanks which had
been previously marked with private
Identification characters by Govern
ment men,"
All attempts to secure information as
to the work accomplished in a confer
ence between Chief Justice Melville E.
Fuller, Judge Blodgett and United
States Attorney Milchrist which was
held to-day was met with suave smiles.
The Chief Justice was too busy to talk,
Judge Blodgett was engaged and Mr..
Milchrist said every thing would come
out in due time.

WATER POWER COMPANY.

4 Corporation lhIt Cout?mpIates the Use
of Water in Many Ways.
TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. IA new irri-
cation and water power company has
beer formed here for operating in all
parts Of Kansas in constructing and
maintaining dams, raceways, aque-
ducts, canals wells and such other
works and appliances as may be re-
quircd for the collection, conveyance
and use OF water for manufacturing,
water and water power, and for utiliz-
ing and supplying water for the pur-
pose of irrigation. One of the principal
purposes of this company is to put in
operation a system of irrigation
that can be used by individual
farmers at a small expense, and
whether situated on streams or not.
Where streams can be utilized
that will be done, but it is
believed that nearly every quarter sec
ton in the State can be successfully ir-
rigated, in kvhole or in part, by an out
lay of only a few hundred dollars, and
this will increase the value of the land
from three to ten times its present val
ue. With proper irrigation, one-fourth
of farm will often produce more than
whole quarter section in its natural
condition, and sure crop on part of
the farm is better than the uncertain
chances without irrigation. Wherever
it can be successfully done it is also
proposed to use the water for the pur-
poses of power. The company is organ
lied with a capital stock of $1,000, ,OOO
and will have its headquarters in Tope-
ka. The incorporators are 7. D.

THE COPYRIGHT BILL.
The Publishers Lobby Upset BY Sherman's
Amendment to Give Foreign Authors
Fair Deal.

The Publishers Lobby Upset BY Sherman's
Amendment to Give Foreign Authors a
Fair Deal.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The copy
right bill suffered more mutilation in
the Senate by the adoption of the
Sherman amendment, which completely
subverted the principle on which the
bill is based, and is equivalent to an
estoppel of the entire copyright enter.
prise for this season at least. 1t was
brought out very clearly in the debate
for the benefit of those who had
not perceived the fact from the first
that the bill under consideration was a
publishers bill, pure and simple, and
that the proposed legislation was as
truly class legislation, or legislative
favoritism, as any thing that has ever
received denunciation as such. The
promoters of the bill showed their
colors when they passed the word
along to oppose the Sherman amend
ment This amendment simply sought
= to place foreign books copyrighted here,
but printed abroad, under the regular
restrictions of the present tariff law.
This would appear sensible, but the
publishers who are behind the bill
would not hear of it They said it
would completely ruin the bill In
other words it would destroy their in
terest in it, because it would interfere
with the monopoly which they hoped
to enjoy under the bill. After the
Sherman amendment was adopted the
bill was laid aside without further
action.
1t would not be surprising if it were
not taken up again in hurry, as It has
been nodded into a shape very dis
tasteful to its originators. They con-
fess here that they now expect
the bill to fail 1t is an open secret that
the authors of the country, the ostensi-
Bile beneficiaries of the bill, have never
taken any real interest in it. 1t has
been pushed solely by the big publish
ing houses, and it is safe to say that
they have not spent their time and
money over it Just for fun, or even for
the sake of advancing the cause Of alb
stract right and justice. Mr.. r. U.
johnson, and his co-laborers of the
Copyright Association, continue to as
sert that the Senators have acted ig-
in the matter, but the Sena-
tors are evidently not so ignorant as to
fail to perceive the real purpose and
motive power of this so-called authors
