BURNED BY EMPLOYEES.

American Railway Union Not RESPONSE
BILE for Destruction of Property.
CHICAGO, Aug. 7.-During the past
week a committee of the American
Railway union held frequent consulta-
tions with Mayor Hopkins.
The American Railway Union men
say they expect to prove in many in
stances that the destruction of prop
erty for which damages are claimed,
was done by men employed by the
railroads and general managers asso-
citation. They claim to be able to
prove that the man arrested last
Friday charged with leading the riot
and burning cars on the Rock Island
tracks on July 5th was at that time in
the employ of the Chicago and Eastern
Illinois road.
They also claim to have other SINH
lar cases. Their object is to show that
the American Railway union is not re-
sponsible for the riots and destruction
of property.

MURDERED BY HIS SONS.
An Old Man Stabbed while I'm the Act
of Chastising Them.


of Chastising Them.
CHICAGO, Aug. Henry Whitman,
the aged victim of his sons assault,
is lying at the county hospital in
dying condition. This morning the
two boys, one aged 10 and the other
%, were taken to the county hospital
and identified by the dying father as
his assailants.
Early this morning the boys, Walter
and Harry, returned home after
spending the night at a dance. Mr..
Whitman upbraided the boys for
staying out so late and the boys re-
taliated with angry words. From
words they resorted to blows and the
father was chastising the boys in a
wholesome manner when one of them
plunged knife into the old mans
stomach, producing frightful wound.
When the police was called they were
denied admittance to the house, but
gained entrance by force. The father
was sent to the hospital in an un-
conscious condition and the boys were
locked up at the West Chicago avenue
station.
The old man was revived long
enough this morning to identity his
sons as his assailants.

.seservlng Of oonadsnce.

The old-time orthodox physicians
are slow to give credit to any secret
formula for the cure of disease. This
is owing to the fact that so many of
them are really rank frauds, gotten
up wholly for gain. tits well-known
fact that the public is easily hum
plugged when It comes to purchasing
nostrums, but the many successful
cases treated by the Cook Remedy
company offer evidence than can not
be successfully disputed and the old
time doctors are compelled to admit
that at last an absolute specific for
blood diseases, both hereditary and
acquired, has been discove red. Magic
Cyphilene has made a fortune for its
owner, saved many a life and allevi-'
ated more suffering than any secret
formula for the cure of blood diseases
known to the world
Magic Cyphilene was originally
compounded at Omaha in 1879. In
1898 the business had grown to such
an extent that it was removed to this
city and the Cook Remedy company
was organized under the laws of 1lli-
nois with capital stock of $500, 0Ou.
Its financial standing is strictly first
class, as reference to the CONNER
cial agency reports will show, and it
is a corporation deserving the conf
dence and patronage of the people.
The Dispatch is as ready to give credit
to deserving enterprises as it is to ex-
pose frauds. and it has seen indisput-
able proof of the merits of the medi-
cine compounded by the Cook Remedy
company.
The Cook Remedy company treats
every case under positive guaranty
to cure or return the money. As nu'
merous other cases attest, the medi-
cine given effects a permanent cure in
a short time In the most advanced
cases of blood poisoning or syphilis
Magic Cyphilene has effected numeR-
Gus truly marvellous cures many OF
which have attracted the attention OF
the medical profession, which had al
most invariably pronounced the cases
hopeless.
No reputable journal can afford to
commend an enterprise that is not de-
serving. The Dispatch knows the
Cook Remedy company to be exactly
what it is claimed to be, and the serVi-
ces it has rendered to suHerin g
humanity entitle it to unlimited COM
mendation. The Roehrig case is not
matter of hearsay. 1t is positively
known to be matter of fact.
Beware of Imitators.
Their reputation for quick and per-
manent cures in all stages of the dis
ease and even when all other re needles
fail, has become so widespread that
several imitators have come to light,
some even going so far as to copy their
printed matter advertising, and one
concern which is liable to deceive the
public has assumed a similar name.

No One Seems to Know the object oil
Their VisIt-They Won't Tell,
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.-There is some
uncertainty manifested in congress,
sional circles in regard to the exact
purpose of the visit of Messrs. Parker,
Cummins and Wideman, the royalist
ENJOYS from Hawaii. While they
talked with various member of con.
gress they have not confded to any
one definite impression of the ends
which they hope to accomplish by
their missions. In a general way
they have reviewed the various
wrongs attending the overthrow of
the monarchy, from their standpoint,
and have complained of the interfer-
ence of Mr.. Stevens, which they say
brought about the downfall.
They represent that the govern,
ment cannot be considered republic,
and are not satisfied with the attitude
of Mr.. Willis, who is said to be as
friendly to the American element as
was his predecessor. But they do not
behalf of the deposed queen nor do
they state definitely why they are
here.
One of the two objects suggested by
members of congress as having
brought the delegation, is to urge the
administration to carry out its aban-
doned idea of the restoration of tho
queen or to make arrangements for
pecuniary redress for her.
The commissioners have expressly

Reports.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Aug. Washing
Tton-aisPatches to-day noted the re-
'ce1pt by the Japanese ambassador of
"a document in which a number of
young men in this country had offered
to go to Japan and enlist in the army
of the mikado. Only brief note to
the effect that the offer constituted an
offense against the laws of the United
States was appended to the dispatch.
It now turns out that one of the
young men making the offer holds a
commission in national guard COM
pany of this city, and that at least
half dozen of his comrades are mem
bers of his company
A half dozen members of a local
company went before notary public
few days ago and procured the draft
OF document offering their services
to Japan. The list was subsequently
circulated about town and was readily
signed by seventy adventurous young
men. When completed it was sent to
Japan by the ambassador at Washing
ton. They say they are ready to go
at once and do not fear international
complications.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-Several hun
'dred letters containing tenders of
service to the japanese government
in the present war with China have
reached the legation here. They
come from nearly every part of the
United States
One of the latest was from an ex-
Confederate at Greenville, Miss, of
fering to raise a battalian and even a
regiment of men if desired, at that
place and New Orleans. Another was
from the "Foreign Legion at Cleve-
land, Ohio. A third came from
an individual who was willing to
raise company of picked sharp
shooters, and a fourth was from a
person who had some torpedo device
that he was willing to part with for a
consideration.
Such communications as the last
mentioned are turned over to the
naval attache of the legation to do
with as he deems best. To the others
the legation officials return polite
destinations. It is penal defense
for Americans to serve either in the
Chinese or Japanese service while the
two nations are at war, so that the
latter government cannot under any
circumstances accept the offers.

it became evident that the most es-
sential Siberian sections of the line as
far as Irlzutsk could be completed by
1s9S-or two years ahead of time.
Therefore it was resolved to acceler-
ate the construction of the remainder.
The building of the Transbaika1 line

ACCUMULATED WISDOM.

How we all admire the wisdom of
those who come to us for advice.
If happiness in this life is your OBJ
ject, don't try too hard to get rich.
Bad men do right only because they
have to; good men, because they love
to.
Some people never do find out that
there is joy in giving, because they do
not give enough.
Adversely is the trial of principle;
without it, a man hardly knows
whether he is honest or not.
In matters of conscience, first
thoughts are best; in matters of pru-
dence, last thoughts are best.
The man who starts out to be re-
former should be well prepared for
bad roads and rough weather.
There is seldom line of glory writ
ten on the earth's face, but line of
suffering runs parallel with it
He who waits for an opportunity to
do much at once may breathe out his
life in idle wishes, and regret in the
last hour his useless intentions and
barren zeal
We should rule ourselves with a
firm hand. Being our own master
means often that we are at liberty to
be the slaves of our own follies, ca
prices and passions.
False happiness is like false money
lit passes for time as well as the
true; but, when it is brought to the
touch, we find the lightness and al
10y, and feel the loss.
The everyday cares and duties,
which men call drudgery, are the
weights and counterpoises Of the
clock of time, giving its pendulum 3
true vibration, and its hsndsa regular
motion.
