Dr. Gathng, whose mission appears to be to invent machinery to wipe out human life with internal precision and celerity, has just produced 8 new gun that, he says, will discount the Gatling, the Mirrail- leuse, and all other rapid-firing guns !" This monster delivers 2,OOO shots min ute, and one needs no very lively imagi- nation to comprehend what what appalling slaughter it must work, if skilfully ham, dled, in the serried ranks of infantry It has the two-fold merit of moving down human beings as if they were swaths of of grain, and of doing the moving at a marvelously low price. In concocting this weapon, the doctor intimates, with a certain tone of pride, he has kept the ends of economy constantly in view. The cost of discharging it says he, has been reduced to minimum.
 We'll done, doctor! You deserve your laurels. It is true that we must have war, and, since we must have it, we of this quick age can't have too much of it in given time and at the lowest possible price. With your wonderful weapon a capable hired man man at $2 forenoon ought to be able to annihilate an army.
 A painful rumor is circulating along the Hudson river touching the ice crop. It has not become the victim of sunstroke nor any other calamity. Not that. The rumor is, as we learn from tThe Kings ton Freeman" that the price will be higher next season lowing to the increas- ed expense of cutting ice in the recent cold weather" For one reason or anoth- CT it is an indictment world.
 It has been intimated that President Harrison's appointment of Judge Jackson to. the supreme court bench was due to his desire to appoint his old law partner, General Miller, to the district judgeship which Jackson will yacate. Such an ap- pointment would be impossible in any event, as Judge Jackson and General Miller do not reside in the same district.

W. W. HOLMES, the wife murderer, was hanged on Friday last, the operation be- ing as near to the standard, "decency and in good order'' as possible, the great est objection being the large number pres ent. Why is there need of such an array of spectators is inexplainable, but less so than the question, why do men care to be spectators at such scene? Many of the vicinity newspapers had two representa- tives each,

A wrinkle in suits and suit in wrinkles are two different things.
 Look out for one but ke-p clear of the other. You know how quickly some suits will wrinkle. They look first rate for week or two and then the creases begin to appear. Ofcourse they were never starched, but they soon look as though they had been and as though all the starch had been taken out of them. That's one side of the picture. Here's the other: In one of our first class made suits, "either medium or high pr:ced," you could go through trapeze perform ance, providing you happen to be an athlete, without creating a crease or starting seam, and they cost you no more than cheap made goods.
 Don't forget that we can give you a good bargain in Mems, Youths or Boys Oyercoats, and at prices that are as low as the lowest. We have a full The of Gents Furnishings, Hats and Caps to be sold at popular prices

Above Everything Else

DR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
purlfles the blood. BY this means, il
reaches, builds up and invIgorates
every part Of the system. For every
blood taint and disorder, and for
every disease that comes from an in-
active liver or impure blood, it is the
only remedy so sure and effective that
it can be guaranteed.
If it fails to benefit or cure, you
have your money back.
These diseases are many. They're
different in form, but they're like in
treatment. Rouse up the torpid liver
into healthy action, thoroughly purify
and enrich the blood, and there's a
positive cure. The discovery" does
this as nothing else can. Dyspepsia,
indigestion, biliousness, all brochial
throat and lung affections; every form
Of sorofula, oven consumption (or lung
scrofula) in its earlier stages; and the
most stubborn skin and scalp diseases
are complete y cured by it.
Mild, gentle, soothing and healing is
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. Only so

the government turned the witnesses
over to the defense, then it began to
look like falsehood, and looked more
so all the way through. He Denny
said Allis told him, but he made no
minute of when or how the direction
was given, except that Allis told
him. All this he carried in the store
house of his memory-a wonderful
memory. Reason requires you to say
that mans statement was false. He
couldn't carry all these alleged direc-
tions on specific items in his memory,
and any man with as much sense as
there is grease in a grasshopper's hide
knows better"
The speaker concluded with an elo-
quent plea in his clients behalf, and
was warmly congratulated on his able
effort.

A BEAUTIFUL GIFT.
effort.

Through the efforts of the Episco-
pal ladies beautiful "Christmas gift"
will find its way into some Texarkana
home, and there brighten the family
circle by making glad the heart of
favorite child. At the same time a
great and good cause will be served,
by raising funds with which to build
and furnish house of religious wor-
ship. This dual object will be accom-
plished through the medium of a
"Doll House," which to the eyes of the
juvenile world will appear veritable
'Lilputian palace" or "Fairy castle" of
enchantment, to be voted to the most
popular little maid IN the city.
The "doll house will from this date,
be on exhibition at Schicker' Funi-
ture store,' where the voting contest
will be carried on and recorded from
day to day, until the 10 of December,
when the same will be finally decided
and properly awarded at the Epsco-
pal Ladies Bazaar.
The votes are sold on demand at
10 cents each and recorded when de.
posted A resume of the vote will
appear in this paper from time to
time. The contest will be a spirited
one and more than one Of our petite
bellies will compete for the prize.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
His Report Presented TO Congress
Showing Increase in Fed
eral Court Business.

The annual report of Attorney
General Ohey, was submitted to con-
gress yesterday. The Attorney Gem
eral reports the volume of business in
the Federal courts to be largely and
rapidly increasing.
The number of criminal prosecu-
tions pending in the circuit and dis
trict courts Of the United States July
l, 1908, was 1886 against 3,S08 pen
ding in the same courts July 1, 1885,
while the expenses of the United
States courts exclusive Of judges sal
aries) incurred and paid in the fiscal
year of 1898 was $4,528,676 against
$2S74, ,63S incurred and paid for like
expenses in the fiscal year of 1885.
The two cases of the greatest conse-
quence to the government was decid-
ed by the supreme court during the
past year says the report, were what
was known as the Chineae exclusive
case and the hat trimmings case. The
latter involved no legal principle of
special moment, but the decision adj
verse to the government makes II lia-
bic for pecuniary claims, yariously es-
timated as amounting from $lO,OO0,-
900 to $S0,0O0,OOO.
The Chinese exclusion case on the
other hand brought into debate a
