HILL TO MAYNARD.
The Astu+e New Yorker Proves His
Political Sagacity Be-
yond Question.

The political sensation of the day is
given to the public, at large, through
medium of a special dispatch printed
in recent issue of one of the leading
Republican journals, of New York, in
which it is positively announced that
the discovery has been made of the
fact, that before the Democratic State
Convention, of New York, met at
Saratoga Springs, in October, Senator
David b. Hill wrote to Judge Isaac
II. Maynard and advised him against
taking the nomination for court of
appeals jndge on the state ticket
While expressing protestatiOns of the
most unswerving friendship and the
greatest admiration for his talents,
and declaring that the Democratic
party owed him a debt of gratitude
which could not lie repaid by an Office,
Senator Hill pointed out that a nomi-
nation at that time might not only
bring defeat, but imperil the Demo-
catic state ticket. In reply Judge
Maynard declared that he sought
nothing but vindicatlon. He believed
the sentiment of the people was with
him and he was willing to take the
chances. One of the best Hill men in
the state is responsible for the state
ments. He claims not only to have
seen the letter which Senator Hill
wrote, but the answer which Judge
Maynard returned. Senator Hill
wrote the letter in Washington, as the
story goes, one night during the spec
ial session of congress. Senator Hill
alone in his room in the Arlington re-
viewed the situation in New York.
His several months residence away
from Albany had enabled him to over
look details, perso al attachments and
form judgement only on the results.
After two hours reflection he went to
bed with the conviction that the NOM
ination of Judge Maynard would lead
to the defeat of the entire Democratic
state ticket At 5 a. NJ, he awOke
from a sound sleep with the one
thought in his mind, Judge Maynard's
nomination was bound to be djsas-
trous, He sat at his desk in his night
clothes and when he arose he had fill
ed fifteen pages with advice, politics
and expression of friendship. He
went over the situation eXhaustlvely.
He informed Judge Maynard that it
was not a good time to force upon
the people nomination that was sure
to develop the opposition which this
would He urged him to consider
calmly and diSpasSiouately the views
he expressed and advised him to show
the letter to his colleagues on the
court of appeals bench. This Judge
MAYNARD did without any encourage
men, He was so confident of vim
dication, however, that he insisted up
on receiving the nomination,

WELL TRAINED DOGS.

Much has been written Of the won
derful instinct and lncomprehensible
sagaclty of certain breeds of hunting
docs but there is still another species
of the canine family, found principally
in England and other game preserving g
countries, which "lays over the en-

One Great Long Laugh.

Saturday, Dec % will be laughing
day at Ghio's opera house. On this
date that clever comedy organization
which presented the uproariously fun
ny play, "Dr. Bill" here last ear, will
be seen here again, appearing in the
same merry comedy.
For pure solid fun, sweet selections
Of song, dainty bits Of dance and le-
gitimate comedy, "Dr Bill" is an ideal
farclal concert. 1t is too good and too
comical play TO be dlssected in these
columns fof the benefit Of those who
neglected to see it last season, while
for those who did, such an analysis
would be utterly superhuous. The
point now is that it pretents n clean,
bright, polished two-and-a-half hours
invitation to genuine forgetfulness of
care and makes everyone who sees it
lose sight of the fact that they ever
had the blues. 'Dr. Bill' Is one great
long laugh. 1t is a modern comedy
of errors and appeals especially to Ia

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
tag than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs,
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
atiye; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions aud
met with the approval Of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by oil drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it IS man

Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup Of Figs

THAT COTTON TAX BILL.

For some days past the impression
has been general, throughout the
country, that a bill proposing to re-
fund, out of the Federal treasury, the
cotton tax, collected by the Govern
ment just after the war, has been
passed upon and favorobly reported
to congress, by the judiciary commit
tee.
This mistake may have originated
from the favorable report of a bill
from that committee permitting per-
sons to sue in the court of claims for
the proceeds arising from the sale of
captured and abandoned property.
There was a great deal of money put
in the treasury from the sale of cap
tured or abandoned property. The
Supreme court held that this money
could be sued for by those whose
property had been captured and
abandoned, but the right TO sue under
the law expired short time after the
war and the bill introduced by Con-
gresham Culberson and reported fav-
orably was to revive the right to
sue.
There have been several bills intro
duced in this congress to refund the
tax and referred to the judiciary COM
mittee, of which Mr.. Culberson is
chairman.
Speaking on this subject to the
Washington correspondent of the Dal-
las news Mr.. Culbersou said: "The
statement in the papers that bill to
refund the cotton tax has been ex-
pccted from the judiciary committee
is a mistake. 1t would require $780,
100000 to refund the tax. There are
bills to refund il before the committee
but they will not be reported favora-
bly,. Even if they were so reported
they would be badly defeated in the
house. This tax will never be refund

Birnie Patrick, young man about
q years Of age, has been paying Miss

too wild and dissipated, and she en-
deavored to avoid him as much as
possible.
About 2 o'clock Miss Dodsou, Mrs.

engaged in sewing, when young PAT
rick opened the door and walked in.

sped through her breast and came out
of her back.
She fell dead.

rectly through her lungs.

of the head from right to left.
The shot was 50 close to tho eye

Off my eyes" The shot had blinded
him. He was removed to his home.
