Marvellous Results.

From letter written b. Rev. ]. Gunder-
man, of Diamondale, Mich, We are permitted
to make this extract: II have no hesitation in
recommending DIR. Kings New Discovery, as
the results were almost marvellous in the case
of my wife. While was pastor of the Bsp-
fist Church at Rives Junction she was brought
down with Pneumonia succeeding La Grippe.
Terrible paro1ysms of coughing would last
hours with little interruption and it seemed
as if she could not survive them. A friend
recommended DR.. Kings New Discovery; it
was quick in its work and highly satisfactory
in its results" Trial bottles free at E. s.

CHARGED WITH BURGLARY.-As has
been stated, Mr.. Harry Rice's store, on
north Fairfax street, was entered and
robbed on Sunday morning last OF some
cigars and slot machine which was
broken open and about four dollars in
money distracted. officer Davis found
the remnants of the slot machine
among some weeds in Petersburg"
hollow, but there was not the slightest
clew to the perpetrators of the burglary
until yesterday. 1t is hard matter gen
orally to get one negro to testi-
Sy against another, but occasion
ally there is an exceptional case.
isaac Johnson, tall, sable individual,
who lives with colored woman, named
Sarah Levi, appeared in the Police
Court Monday as q witness against a
negro woman named Sarah Alexander,
who had been charged with drunken
aud disorderly conduct All the parties
are we'll known to the police. That
case was soon disposed of, but it proved
70 be the first act in more serious af-
fair. The Alexander woman immedi-
ately after being discharged had some
thing interesting to communicate to
the authorities, which was to the effect
that during Sunday she had seen Isaac
Johnson and another negro named
George Boston counting the pennies
taken from the slot machine and max
ing an equal division of them. She
further stated that she lived in an up
per room of house occupied by john
son and Sarah Levi, and the latter be.
ing aware of the fact that she could
give damaging testimony against the
parties, had caused her to be arrested
in order to get her out of the way.
Boston was arrested and warrant is
sued for the apprehension of Johnson.

1T seems incredible" said George
Marsh to the corridor man at the La
clede, 'that there should be such thing
as "a growing hand in the planting of
flowers and other plants, but it is recog-
nized even by florists, and it has grown
to have a regular name. Some people will
read directions for preparing the soil
and planting the seed or slips and fol-
low them faithfully. and yet nothing
will: grow, or if it grows at all it will be
stunted and almost worthless. while an
other, without half the care and trouble,
will have everything live and thrive.
II saw a little girl bring back what
appeared to be worthless sticks of some
plants which she had found in the
woods. Her mother wanted them to
live, and selecting the best she planted
and tended them with the greatest care.
The little girl took the ones that had
been discarded and started a little gar
den as she called it. of her own. The
ones that received the attention died.
Those which the little girl stuck into the
ground lived and subsequently bloomed.
1t would appear as if plants had an atm
ity for some people and not for Others

Why He Was an Exception.

1T makes me tired to see the nj
in which these newspapers are run" said
the man in the smoking car as he took
off his glasses and let his paper drop
across his knees.
The man who sat next to him had one
lock of harlan oasis in a desert of scalp
which he spent most of his time in
smoothing reiectively.
Il s'pose,' he said slowly, that you
could give 'em all points,
I'm sure Of it. Couldn't you:"
"No. | don't think could"
do you mean to say that you couldn
tell the editor how to run his paper?:' ex-
claimed the kicker in a tone that had alb
solute dismay in it.
Il do, indeed" replied the man with
the oasis earnestly.
"Well. l must say there are mo- many
like YOU"
Il know it. used to be like you are,
But now I'm trying to run a newspaper
myself, and I'll tell you, my friend, I'm
not saying a word, not a word."-Wash

The democratic end Of the senate com
mittee having in charge the badly Grip
pied Wilson tariff bill have decided to
give no hearings in committee to friends
or foes Of the provisions OF the bill. This
is a sensible conclusion under the cir
cumstances: With a bulldozing presl-
dent forcing the measure through on
the fears OF a cringing democracy, logic
would AVE little place in determining
the issue and an educational policy IN
committee would be only a waste of
time. Republicans themselves ought to
be consistent and stand by what nearly
every last Que Of them SAID after tire last
presidential election, namely: | hope
they wall put IA free trade bill through 1T

democrats themselves will ever got an
