NOT so GREEN" AFTER ALL.

Taking up a collection" to bury
a live woman, is cetainly an unus-
ual proceeding, but is Just what was
done in this city last week, accord
ing to information given us by a
responsible citizen of the East side.
On Sunday last Green Trice, a ne
gro living on the Runnells place,
appeared at Moore & Cos Drug
Store, and solicited aims with
which to defray the funeral eXpen-
ses of his wife, who, according to
his story, told with many tears and
sighs, had dropped dead from heart
disease, the previous day, He re-
ceived the money given him by
those present, with many protesta
tions of gratitude, and went on his
way Collecting" Nothing further
was thought of the matter until
yesterday, when one of the gentle
men who donated" drove out to
the Runnells place on business, and
there found the supposed corpse,
wrestling with a "big weeks wash
ing" When asked about her hus-
band, she stated that. he had left
home early Monday morning and
had not since returned. The gen
tleman drove back to town, weigh
ing this new experience, in "Af-
rican cunning" and mentally jotted
it down as an entirely new and or
iginal scheme, for raising the
wind" In the meantime he and
other contributors to the "fun-
eral fund" are keeping sharp look
out for Green Trice, who, it seems
is not half so green by nature as he
is by name.

PURITY IN LEGISLATION.

One outgrowth Of the bribery
scandal, and attendant Sugar In
vestigation by the Senate Commit
tee, was made apparent in the
United States Senate, yesterday
It took the form of bill by Mr.,
Allen, of Nebraska, its title being
"a bill to preserve the purity of
National legislation" Mr. Allen is
the Populist member of the Sugar
Investigation Committee, and the
reports Of stock speculation by SEN
ators suggested the measure to
him. The bill provides that it shall
be unlawful for any Senator or Rep
resentative during his term of Office
to own or be concencerned, directly
or indirectly, in owning, buying or
selling, or in any manner dealing
in speculative stocks, the value Of
which may in any manner depend
upon a vote Of Congress, nor shall
any member Of Congress, during his
term, be Il member or interested
pecuniarily in any Board of Trade,
Stock Exchange National Bank or
other organization in which such
stocks are bought or sold Viola
ton of this act in made punishable
by forfeiture Of Office and expuls-
ion from the branch Of Congress to
which such member belongs, and in
addition thereto he shall be subject
to indictment and conviction.
The oath Of Office is to be enlarg-
ed in scope to cover the provision
of the bill

THE SUGAR INVESTIGATION.
Congressman Cadmus Gives Interest
ing Testimony Before the
Senate Committee.

Yesterdays telegraphic news,
from Washington, giving proceed
ings before the Senate Investiga-
ting committee, develop the fact
that Congressman Cadmus, of New
Jersey, is the man to whom Walter
Castor told the story of the con-
versation he had overheard in the
room of Mr.. Terrell, of the Sugar
Trust at the Arlington Hotel on
the night of March 6, last. Mr..
Castor was before the Senate Su-
gar Investigating Committee again
yesterday and he gave Mr.. Cadmus
name which he had declined to do
on the previous day The commit
tee Immediately decided to send for
Mr., Cadmus and excused Mr.. Gas
ton after some further questions
put largely by the Republican
members of the committee. In the
course of this examination the fact
was developed that Mr. Castor is
a Democrat in politics.
Representative Cadmus, of New
Jersey, testified as to the circum-
stances under which Mr. CASTOR
had related to him the details of
the night conference at the Ar
lington House. CASTOR met him in
the hotel corridor on the morning
following the night conference and
slapped him on the shoulder with
an evident show of satisfaction
saying: "Cadmus, l don't believe
that the tariff bill is going to pass"
Castor related how the loud dis
cussion had continued throughout
the foregoing night. The details
as given by Mr. Cadmus, we're con-
frmatory of those already given by
CASTOR. The committee asked Mr.
Cadmus to give the names Of those
present at the conference. He an
swered that he did not recall that
Nh Castor mentioned the names
of any public men or others pres
ent Mr. Cadmus added, with en-
phasis, that if he had learned any
names he would positively decline
to give them to the committee.
The committee will probably not
meet again before Saturday Sub
pmnas have been issued for a half
dozen or more witnesses, and for
some Of them it will probably be
necessary to send away from the
city. The committee declined to
give the names of the men who
are TO be summoned.

LOUIS CLAIRE PARDONED.

The Governor of Louisiana has is
sued an unconditional pardon to
Louis Claire, the young man who
shot and killed his uncle, Pat Mea-
ly, prominent city officer and poll
tician of New Orleans, on New
Years Eve, 1888, in a saloon on st.
Charles Street. The murder was
cold blooded and unprovoked, and
the victim a large hearted, gener
Gus minded Irishman, whose own
easy good nature, was his worst en-
emy. The writer was in New Or
leans on the night of the murder
and saw Claire and his confederates
arranged for preliminary examina-
tion, amid the execrations Of an
excited and indignant populace. A
final trial. however, resulted in the
acquittal of all save Claire and Glib
son, who were sentenced to penal
servitude for SO and 20 years, re-
spectively Gibson, is dead, killed
in prison, and Claire pardoned after
five years confinement. Thus ends
the fatal drama, in which two out
of three actors lost their lives. The
petition for Claire's pardon recited
heroic service on his part during
the terrific cyclone which wrecked
the prison and killed his companion,
in crime, Gibson. Claire returns to
his home only to find his young wife
gone from him forever, she having
secured a divorce during his incar-
ceration. His pardon is due to
the untiring efforts of a noble moth
er and devoted sister, who were
ready, with open arms, to welcome
his release.

REGARDED AS CONCLUSIVE.

Telegraphic advices, from the
seat Of National Government, all
tend to the conclusion, that the
banking authorities in Congress re
gard the defeat of the State Bank
Measure, as profoundly significant
of future banking and currency in
the United States. 1t is said to
establish the fnality Of State banks
and State bank currency never to
be revived and if any change is
made from the present system of
National banks it will be by a ma
tionalized currency. This construc-
tion of the vote was arrived at by q
careful analysis Of the sectional
character of the vote OF northern
Democrats there were only eight
votes to repeal the restrictions Of
State banks, viz, California, 2; IL
linois, 1; Indiana, ]; Ohio, /; New
York, 3. All other northern Dem
ocrats voted against the repeal
Added to this was the opposition 0
the solid Republican vote. Soutl.
as well as North.

Frequent Onslaughts

On the delicate membrane Of the
bowels and stomach with drastic
purgatives must have their natural
consequence-to weaken and disa-
BILE both organs. Nature exacts Sc
we're penalties for infringements Of
her laws, and there is no more glar-
ing one than that which consists in
frequent and unnecessary dosing
with violent cathartics. This is,
however, the course pursued by
many unwise people who seem to
think that the bowels, unless con-
stantly relaxed, are not in a healthy
state. When a laxative is really
needed, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters is the safest and most thor
ough. 1t neither gripes nor oper-
ates violently or excessively. 1t in
vigorates the intestines or stomach
and arouses the liver Regularity

Sleep promoted, appetite restored,
are among its benign effects. A
tendency to rheumatism and kidney
trouble is nullified by it, and it COM
pletely eradicates malarial COM
