.CAPARRH OF pelvic ORGANS
A Glass of Diseases Not Gener-
ally Understood.

1t is a popular impression that catarrh
IS disease confined to the mucous men,
'branes lining the nose. throat and bron-
chial tubes and other of the respiratory
organs. The real fact is, that all mu-
cous membranes, wherever located. are
subject to catarrh, and unless recognized
and properly treated chronic ailments
are sure TO follow. No organ of the
whole body is more frequently affected
than the bladder The symptoms Of
catarrh Of the bladder are. frequent void
ing, which is generally scant in quantity
and highly coIored. with thick, white
or slightly pinkish sediment Catarrh of
the bladder is also liable to extend down.
wards to the pelvic organs. This will
soon cause smarting and sometimes diff
ficulty and pain. In females the extern
sion OF the catarrhal disease is certain
to involve the female pelvic organs, and
produces leucorrhoea. painful PERIODS,
and beariug-down pains.
In taking Pe-ru-na for catarrhal affec-
tons of these organs a tablespoonful four
times each day is sufficient for cases of
ordinary severity, but there are acute
cases for which il IS necessary to take
six doses each day TO get the full benefit
of the treatment. Old persons who are
annoyed by frequent calls and burning
pains. day or night. never fail TO ind
use Of Pe-ru-na.

ITHACA y Y, April "A phase OF
the recent Cornell university poisoning
case developed this evening in the sui
eide of DR.. W. I. Brenizer. a prosperous
dentist, who was found dead in his
boarding house. All the circumstances
tend TO show that Brenizer killed him

the act was due TO dependency and
meditation over the recent Cornell ban
quet tragedy, which occurred in the
same block in which his office is situated
and directly over it. A letter addressed
TO Charles W. White Of this city was
found on the desk. After stating he had

he declares that the allegations made
against him of completely in the chlorine

TlLLMAN TALKS POLITICS.
Says There VIII Be an UpheaveI and
New Party.

COLUMBIA, s. C, April SPECIAL to
the Associated Press.-While the eyes
of all the people of the United States
are turned upon this state in conse-
Quence of the recent alleged insurrec-
ton in Darlington, Governor Tillman
comes to the front with the suggestion
of an upheaval in national politics.
While the Associated Press corresponds
ent was at the executive mansion today
the governor read a letter he had re-
ceived from a western pOpulist in which
the writer said that the only thing he
did not admire about the governors
political course so far was that he did
not have the moral courage to come
squarely out and call himself a popu-
list. The governor then called attention
to the fact that many Of the northern
and western papers We're speaking OF
him as the populist governor. Then,
after a little elaboration, he said:
Yes. they call me a populist. I viii
tell them that / am the truest repre-
sentative Of Jeffersonian democracy in
the lead in American politics today. Let
me tell you, 1 don't see anything ahead
now but for the southern democrats TO
combine their forces with the western
pOpuiists and go into the next national
campaign on new party lines. The
northeastern democrats and republicans
are now together. 1t is a combination
OF the moneyed interests"
The governor then, turning suddenly
and in a somewhat excited and very
forcible manner. said: Il despise Cleve-
land and his mugwumps. He is no bet
ter than the rankest republican. He has
destroyed the democratic party. The
South and West viii be forced to unite
and have a complete reorganization OF
party lines. The people who are afraid
of the negro and other questions will
have TO cast aside their fears on those
scores and come together on the ons
line of fighting the money combina-
