 KANSAS CITY-A special to the Times from Paris, Texas says: A tel egram was received from Deming N. M., which stated that capture long to be remembered in criminal history was affected there last night-none other than that of five of the mem- bers of the famous and notorious Dal- ton gang of train robbers The dis patch was from Deputy Marshal S. Williams of the Paris court who stated that he and his posse made the cap ture. Those captured were Bob Dal- ton, the leader of the gang, Grant Dal- ton, Sam Wingo ard Three Fingered Jack. Williams did not give the de- tails of the capture. The telegram states that Williams was on the trail of the other four members of the gang of outlaws. that he expected soon to effect their capture
 DENYING. N. Ms. Williams, dep uty United States marshal, came in from the mountains to-day and sent telegrams notifying the government authorities of the capture of the Dal- ton gang of train robbers, who were making for the Mexican border from the Indian territory. The gang were run upon & short distance from here, and in fight which took place be- tween the marshal's posse and the robbers, two of the latter were Killed and five captured. Three of the gang ore yet at large and the posse expect to capture them within a day or two. The United States marshal's posse consists of a deputy and squad of Indian trailers. it is supposed the gang intended to rob the Southern Pacific while on their way to the Mex ican border.

 NEW YoRK-Two kings fought for supremacy in the lower bay last night, the cholera king and the storm king Around the hospital sheds on the two plague islands, around the brick build ings reeking with sulphur fumes, through the chimneys of the crema- tory and over the emigrant barracks the southeast wind blew in furious gusts while huge waves drove against the rocks. At late hour Ur. Byron on Swinburne Island telegraphed Dr. Jenkins that the surf was running so high as to make it exceedingly dan gerous to put off in their small tugs for the tour of inspection. Dr. Jen- kins wired back orders not to make the attempt. which means that for period of hours, perhaps days, all communication is cut of between the sick on the infected vessels and the doctors on Swinburne and Hoffman Islands. Those who may die during that period on the Scandia, Rugia, Wyoming or Moravia must remain on board.

Harrison has very little prospect of election. If settled outside of the house. Cleveland will be the man. but if decided in the house, the great popular uprising in favor of Weaver may change the mind of many southern Democrats already elected, and make them feaI to thwart the will of the people by voting for Cleveland

TO the silver vault, the vaults where the
PENNIES and the nickelS are stored were
Dassed. There were 100000 pennies
all counted and packed in bags and
stored away as carefully as the coins OF
greater value.
IONS Of Silver Stored in Gloomy
Cellars.
The silver vault is a rather gloomy
place, lighted with Severa! gas jets
which are kept continually burning. LII
looks like huge wine cellar, only that
instead of bottles Of rare old grapes ana

canvas bags, each bag containing ,OOO.
The vault is separated into bins whose
sides are made of iron. SO great is the
pressure of the silver that these IRON
Sides have been bent by the weight
against them. Forty thousand dollars

counted. Most of them come from rail-
roads and other large corporations, and
the companies which Own the drop-a-
cent in-the-Slot machines send bags and
bags of minor coin.
The Wen who Count the Coins.
John Winchell is the gold expert of
the sub-treasuTy. For nineteen years
he has stood at one bench in the gold
room, slipping the yellow sinners from
the bench into his hand and from his
hand into the big scales and thence into
canvas bags. His years Of experience
have given him an adroitnesS that places
him at the head of gold handlers. Mr..
Wincheil is today the best gold coin
expert in the world. He IS also the
most rapid counter of coins in the sub
treasury. where rapidity is second only
to precision as a requirement. On last
Tuesday he examined and counted,
verifying his count by weighing after
ward. $500. 900 in gold. This is a good
DAVIS work, but Mr.. Winchell has
counted 81 100000 in double eagles be-
tween o'clock in the morning and ID
the afternoon.
Look here" Mr.. Winchell said, TAX

pocket and throwing it into pile of
similar coins, THAT coin is two grains
too heavy. Now, I'll lose it in the
others, like this" stirring the mass of
gold with his hand. Now find it,"

There was a colored man down in
one of the counties of my district" said
Congressman John NJ. Allen, of Missis-
sippi, to st. Louis Republic reporter,
.who was elected to the legislature
during the reconstruction times, and
served one term. He was uneducated.
but knew enough to vote with his party
every time. and, besides. picked ND a
vague smatterng of parliamentary law
The winter after that he was drawn on
the Jury of the circuit court. The
docket was crowded, and the court held
until late hour. 1t was his first service
on jury.
One afternoon lltp, as lamps were
being lit. he was called OH to sit in a
new case. The ex-iegislator was tired
and hungry, and did not relish the pros
pect of being kept away from his
supper. SO after the required twelve
had been accepted aid counsel for the
plaintiff was about TO state his case, the
negro statesman-iurOr aStOniShed every
body by rising to his feet and eXclam-
inS iuS loud voice:

trained to perfect accuracy. But the
eye is quick and accurate to detect
coin which deviates from the United
States standard. This is a counterfeit
of gold and platinum
After the coins are counted they are
dumped into a scale and balanced with
a weight of eighteen pounds six ounces
for every 5000. Then they are placed
in bags which are marked and stored in
the vault down stairs. Lightweight
CONS are marked i and returned to the
sender. They are then good as bullion
only. COunterfeits are mutilated and
returned also. For the good gold Ger
tificateS are Issued.
But if there is wealth here IN the
counting room, how much more there is
In the vault where the gold is stored.
ms is just off the large room where
the clerical work is done. The four
walls of the vault are lined with small
lockers, each one of which is capable of
holding half a million in gold coin. The
aggregate is a tremendous sum of
money. Think of it, When the vault
Is filled there are S136.0OO.0OO in this
room alone. Only SO, Zoo, 900 OF $50, Geo..
900 were there when the Press reporter
called.
When the treasury people speak of a
half a million by weight they say "a
ton" but in exact figures this sum
weighs 1850 pounds. This makes 3.7U0
pounds to the million dollars. So when
the gold vault is filled it contains the
enormous weight of sos. 200, 600 pounds.
On the side of the building opposite
to this is the vault where the certiti-
Gates are stored.
The thing first noticed by the visitor
to this room is the peculiar Odor. 1t is
the smell Of millions of dollars of the
prOmiSSOry notes of the United States.
This room also is lined with lockers,
which in this instance are filled with
neat bundles of notes. The artist who
made the accompanying sketches
looked at a bundle of $4,000 silver Ger
tificates which Cashier Muller placed in
his hand. and feebly gasped out. "How
much is there in it?'' He had to be
supported when he learned that he was
holding Sl0000.00O in one hand. He
feebly remarked that he could
carry it away with ease. But his
too evident desire met with

CATARRHAL DYSPEPSIA.
A Disease That Is Very Prevale
in CITY and Country.

The symptoms of catarrhal dyspepsia
are: Coated tongue, pain or heavy
feeling in the stomach, sour stomach,
belching of gas, dizzy head, sometimes
headache, respondent feelings, loss OF
appetite, palpitation of the heart and
irregularity of the bowels.
For this condition | find Pe-ru-na to
be an admirable remedy. In all cases it
brings prompt relief to the painful
symptoms, and in large per cent of
the cases it makes a permanent cure.
Pe-ru-na Soothes the infiamed mu-
cous surface, and thus strikes
at the root of the disease. In cases
where the inflammation has been
so severe and continued as TO produce
extreme irrtability of the stomach. the
remedy may be taken in small doses at
first, diluted in water; but, as soon as
the improvement is sufficient to permit
the full dose to be taken undiluted, it is
a better way, and the cure is much more
rapid. Each bottle of Pe-runa is ac-
companied with complete directions for
use. Kept by most druggists in the
United States. If your druggist does
not happen to have it in stock, he will
order 1t for you.
A valuable pamphlet Of thirty-two
pages, setting forth in detail tbs treat
ment of catarrh, coughs, colds, sore
throat, bronchitis and consumption,
in every phase of the disease. will be
sent free to any address by the Pe-ru-na
