Favors a Woman.

The Chicago Inter Ocean supports the
demand of the Equal Suffrage associa-
ton of Illinois that woman be nomi-
mated to the office of trustee of the state
university of Illinois. 1t adds: ''It is
needless to repeat the argument that a
woman educated in American schools
and in an American home is at least as
fit person to be intrusted with the bal
lot as man Of alien birth who has not
learned to read the American language
or how to speak it correctly at the time
of his naturalization. 1t is more impor-
tant to call attention to the fact that
the Equal Suffrage association has come
into the campaign early and promises to
stay until the end. "

The Watches of the Night.

When of the repeated kind experienced by
persons troubled with insomnia soon bring
about an alarming condition of the nervous
system. The shaking hand, confusion OF the
brain, lapses of memory and loss of appetite
indicate, with terrible precision, the ravages
produced by loss of sleep, which If unremedied
must destroy mental equilibrium altogether.
No better and thorough neIvine exists than
Hostetters Stomach Bitters. Common sense
and ex Serience point to its early and stead Y
use in cases of insomnia 1t strengthens weak
and relaxes the tension of oveIstrained nerves,
which. by the way, resort to unmedicated
stimulants will never do permanently, while
the after effe C; of such excitauts is most pre-
judicial. nder the influence OF this benign
invigorant, appetite, digestion and sleep
return, and bodily comfort and health are
alike promoted 1t is invaluable in chills and
fever, liver complaint, constipation, rheumatic
and kidney trouble.

taken hastily across the city to the State
penitentiary. lie is now confined within
the massive walls and no doubt extra
guards are on watch. The force at the
prison and the general condition of the
walls makes IL impossible for almost any
kind of force TO gain entrance. Up to this
hour no suspicious persons have been
seen in the vicinity of the Jail. IL cannot
be ascertained whether such a party as
is referred TO has arrived on any night
train. A stranger went into several stores
this afternoon, pretty well intoxicated.
and asked clerks to help them lynch the
prisoner tonight. He was arrested and
locked up.
The States OrangeburS special says
that Ed. Murphy, a brother of ID. G..
Murphy, brought in and turned over
to the sheriff by two detectives. He is
believed to be the third of the assasslns.

The last great engineering work at
tempted by DE Lesseps was the cutting
Of a canal through the Tsthmus of Pan
anna. but after the expenditure of co.,
00O00 francs, which eventually led to
most serious scandals. the work was un-
successful. As the enterprise became more
and more helpless. the buoyancy and en-
ergy of De Lesseps began to fail him.
He had Just completed his eighty-seYenth
year and was very feeble when his rep
utation was assailed by the charges Of
colossal fraud and corruption in connec-
ton with the financial part Of the Pan
anna enterprise 1t is doubtful whether he
ever realized the disgrace. When arrest
ed at his home he had, apparently, some
vague idea OF impending menace to his
reputation, and he put on his orders and
his star Of the Legion of Honor before
receiving the officers OF the law. He was
not molested further, and never knew
that he had been tried, convicted and sem
fenced to five years imprisonment.
Even the fact of his sons sentence was
kept from him, and he was permitted to
die in peace.
