CLEVER CONFIDENCE GAME.
". J. Let's, an East Sedalis
Gr0ceryman, Worked
For S35.

Two weeks ago . man giving his
name o. r. Mckee, arrived in the
city and at length found his way to
the grocery store Of W. j. Let's on
East Fifth street. He looked to be
about fifty FIVE years old, was we'll
dressed and presented q favorable sp-
pearance generally. He introduced
himself to Mr.. Lettr, saying that he
was from Galvs, ILL.,, and was a part
ner there in the stock bus:-
ness with a Mr.. Henderson.
Mckee also claimed q distant rela-
tionship with his new acquaintance
and thea made q play for s35. He
said that he was making q stock deal
here and had temporarily run short of
ready cash. He had an oily tongue
and q persuasive manner and finally
Mr.. Let's accompanied him to the
Third National bank and endorsed his
check for s35, the check being drawn
on the Farmers Il Merchants National
bank, of Galva.
Some days afterward, the check
came back protested and Mr.. Let's,
not having seen or heard
anything more of the gentleman from
the "Sucker" state, concluded to
make inquiry into the matter. He
accordingly wrote to the cashier Of
the Galva bank and July % received
the following reply;

SCHOOL BOOK QUESTION.
Prof. Francis Z. Cook, Now in
Sedalia, an Interested
Party.

The school BOOK question Is agltat'
ing the educators in St. Louis. The
St. Louis Republic, in speaking of
the matter SAYS that from an outside
source it was learned that the other
St. Louis authors beside Prof. Wick.
roy who are interested in the matter
were probably Prof. Francis E. Cook,
principal of the Wayman Grow school
and Prof. John S. Collins, principal
of the Divoll school. Each Of these
gentlemen are knowa to be authors Of
one or more school books, and to have
been interested together some two
years ago in trying to get their books
in the field. They are recognized as
experienced teachers of marked
ability, and highly qualified to pro-
duce an admirable series Of school
books. But however meritorious their
books, it is hard for bookmen to be-
lieve that Mr.. Allen and his copart.
ners would take the risk OF producing
them in the face of the competition
that now exists in large eastern houses
and especially the American School
Book Publishing company. that stands
in the same relation to tie school
book trade that the Standard Oil COM
pany does to the oil trade. In this
contest, however, the American Com.
pany is handicapped as far as cutting
prices by the fact that they are forced
to maintain prices or suffer serious lDss
in several other States where they al.
ready have contracts. This state OF
affairs has, no, greatly stimulated M
petition doubt, for book publishers
know exactly what prios the Ameri.
can Company is receiving in other
States, and are able to regulate their
bids in accordance Herewith, an as
surance that the American Company
dare not, directly or indirectly, lower
the price. That there is a good profit
at the present prices and millions in
it for publishers owning q large con-
tract is evident from the lively cOmpe.

MRS. MAVERICKS CAsH.
A Civil Suit in Her Behalf May Benefit
Fer Immensely.

A Civil Suit in Her Behalf May Benefit
Fer Immensely.
The question of the guilt or innocence Of
Mrs. Maybrick, who was convicted in Lon
don some tune ago of the murder of her
husband. and who is now serving life sem
tence, is TO be again question before the
courts, says the Herald.
1t is not allowable under the English law
to obtain a retrial after verdict 10 a crimi-
nal court, but an action in the civil courts,
ii decided IN her favor, would enable her
friends TO petition the Home Secretary of
England and would, in all probability.
result in her pardon.
Such an action will shortly be brought by
Richard 8. Clever the trustee appointed
by the court for Mrs. Maybrick in her ac-
ton against the Mutual Reserve Life Fund
Society of New York. Before his death
Mr.. May brick insured his life for S25, 900 In
this company, th, policy being taken out in
the London Office. After his death and dur
ing the trial of Mrs. Maybrick the company
paid her $4,000 and gave $4,000 to the
children,
After her conviction no more money was
paid, the laws Of England holding person
serving life sentence as dead. Mr.. Clever
was made trustee of the estate, and he
brings action against the insurance conn
pany for the remainder of the policy. The
company on the trial will have to prove oil
the facts that were brought out in the
murder trial, and any new evidence will be
introduced, 80 that this suit will have
very material interest for Mrs. Maybrick.
The case was to have been tried last week
but was set aside for the famous baccarat
trial. The same counsel employed IN that
case will conduct this-Sir Charles Russell
appearing for Mrs. Maybrick and Sir Ed
ward Clarke for the insurance company.
Messrs. Roe & Macklin, the attorneys in
this city for Mrs. Maybrick, were anxious
to have the trial transferred to this country,
but the fact of the policy having been
taken out in London precluded this arrange
ment
Mr.. Harper, the president OF the Mutual
Reserve Life Insurance Company, said yes
terday that although the company had en~
gagged the most formidable counsel in Eng
land in its defense, should the case go
against the company and thereby give it
the legal right to pay the money, he would
have great pleasure In doing SO.

A GREAT LOSS.
The Enormous Amount Of Life Which Has
Gone Out of the American PeOPie-C Can 10
Ever be Recovered

Have you noticed that there are more broken
down men and weak women on our streets to-
Gay than ever before Have you not noticed
that certain of your friends whom you have
always known to be strong aud healthy, are
for some reason, weak and low spirited Is IL
not possib that you yourself feel a trihe less
vigorous than in the pasty Is 1t a fact that the
American people are growing weaker, or is II
due TO sone local caussg There can be little
doubt that it is owing almost entirely TO the
fearful after effects of the Grip. This terrible
and mysterious complaint, starting unaccount-
ably aud running severely, invariably leaves the
person in o weak, nervous and run down cond-
ton. from which Il requires much time TO re-
cover.
When people are In such q state, when nature
is weak and broken, what would common sense
dictate should be dones Precisely what physi-
clans say should be done, viz: Assist Nature,
stimulate her tagging faculties, build her up
Howy BY using pure medicinal stimulant,
and for this purpose there is nothing equal to
pure whiskeY. Doctors. scientific men and the
leading thinkers of the land have declared this
and have uneesitatingly agreed that there is no
whiskey so pure and efficient as Duffys Pure
Malt. It stimulates healthfy and builds up
wasted tissnes. H. rsnews the nervous crSaa!=
cation and assists TO health. IL is popular be-
cause it is so efficient. Great care should be
taken, however. TO secure only the genuine.
Distrust any dealer who for any reason seeks to
induce you TO buy something Just as good. p"
By the iudieious use OF this pure stmulant the
after effects Of the Grip may be removed and
health and strength put in place Of weakness

CHIMNEYs.

The plague of lamps is
the breaking of chimneys;
but that is unnecessary
there are chimneys that do
not break.
They are made of tough
glass, which costs more than
common glass, but not so
much more as to make it
impossible to sell them at
the usual retail price; so
the dealer gets less profit on
them.
The dealer wants to know
where his future chimney
trade is to come from, if he
sells chimneys that last for
ever. He secures the "good
will" and good profits, as
well.
"Pearl-top" G. is the
chimney; Mac III beth &
Co., Pittsburgh, the makers.
