CLEvELANDIN BAD WAY.
Chicago People Regard Him as . Very
Sick Man.

Chicago People Regard Him as q Very
CHICAGO, June 3-President Cleve-
land is sick. One of his party on the
trip from Washington to Chicago said
that he had been i'll for nearly u week.
The trouble is from an old complaint,
aggravated by the hot weather. Dr.
Riley was in close attendance upon him
during the entire trip here.
A noticeable change in the president,
remarked by Chicagoans more or less
familiar with him, was his apparent
utter ignorance of anyone about him ex-
cept those at his elbow. 1t seemed to be
an effort for him to raise his eyes.
He walked with evident pain and at the
same time abstraction of mind. More
than 100000 people looked at him on
the line of march, and, although some
were SO near to him hand could have
been laid upon him, they could not say
he looked at thsm or appeared to know
of their presence.
There was no color in the presidents
face. His skin was q dead gray, heavily
wrinkled. His eye was lusterless and
when raised looked at the sky or straight
ahead. His shaking of hands with the
few who met him was purely mechani-
cal. He looked like a man either very
sick or very worn out His intimates
considered his coming to Chicago in his
present condition as a great personal
sacrifica

Possibility of Open Hostilfties Between
These Two Countries.
WASHINGTON, June g. Reports from
the Argentine Republic show there is
a very active war party which is agi-
tating the prospects of war with Chilli.
The Argentine boundary commission
ers have returned from Chilli and re-
ported satisfactory progress, but the
Argentine press keeps up the talk of
was'. The Argentine government
seems to regard hostilities as possible,
and is taking every step of pre-
caution. The national guard
is arming and drilling, and
officers have been dispatched to Europe
to purchase armament. A loan of $780,
OOO,Oo is being considered for possible
war expenditures. A report from
Rosano states that a popular out
break is imminent, so much SO that the
government has stationed the monitor

That Have Stood For
Several Years.
These Are the Kind That Satisfy
the Public-None Others Will
Prof. Samuels' Record Extends
Back Twenty Years in Kansas,
and a Wonderful List Of Cures
BY Him Is Shown.

Many wonderful cures have
been published for the benefit of
the public that people similarly
afflicted may find out by whom
they can be cured. Many i'm
aginable cures are often report
ed in the papers, but it is the
cures that were made years ago,
without any backsliding since,
that are the most convincing.
When a reliable man comes out
in public, and for the public's
good makes q statement regard
Ing his cure, there is no risk to
be run in consulting the physi-
clan recommended.
Mr.. Irving Doolittle, present
manager of the Hotel Throop,
thus testifies to the ability of
Prof. Samuels. For many years
he suffered with terrible pains in
his head, and could find no re-
lief through many eminent ply
sicians were consulted. Soma
friends suggested that he consult
Prof. Samuels. This was about
four years ago. He did SO, and
found immediate relief through
wearing a pair of glasses that
the professor fitted to his eyes.
He has never experienced any
trouble since, and now very rare
ly finds it necessary even to wear
glasses.
The public can learn a lesson
from Mr.. Doolittle's experience.
Namely, that with Prof. Samu-
eps glasses, eyes grow stronger
gradually, and finally the glasses
may be discarded. This is i'm
portant.
Those who feel that they can
not afford to consult Prof. Samu-
els should not stand back. He
will treat you for VIII at you can
afford to pay.
Prof. Samuels can be seen at
the Throcp from 9 a. N. to
p. m.

A JOKE ON MIR. soPER.


All the Policemen After Him for Sup
posed Theft of Horse and Buggy.
The friends of Pliny soper are having
a good deal of fun at his expense since
Saturday afternoon. Mr.. Sopsr is now
living in Oklahoma, where he is attorney
for the Santa Fe receivers. but he was in
Topeka Saturday.
About o'clock Saturday afternoon
Farmer Bradbury, who lives three miles
southeast of Topeka, appealed TO Officer
PARCEL, who is on the Kansas avenue
beat between Fifth and Sixth streets, for
help to catch man who had stolen his
horse and buggy.
Mr.. Bradbury told the policeman that
one of his neighbors had seen man
going east on Sixth street with horse
and buggy which looked like his.
In short time Chief of Police Wilker-
son had every policeman in town watch
ing for the missing rig, and the chief
and Farmer Bradbury started east
towards Tecumseh hoping to overtAke it.
About an hour after the horse and
buggy was missed officer PARCEL noticed
a horse and buggy hitched in front of
the Colum bian building which he
thought answered the description of
Farmer Bradbury's, but while he was
watching it Pliny Soper came out of the
building, got in the buggy and drove
away.
The policeman made up his mind that
he must have been mistaken, but few
minutes later, while he was standing in
front of ]. Z. jones' drug store talking
to Mrs. Bradbury about the loss, hr.
soper drove up and stopped in front of
]. w. Farnsworth's crookery store.
Mrs. Bradbury at once said, "Why,
that's our buggy and horse"
Officer PARCEL asked Mr. Soper what
he was doing with Farmer Bradbury's
horse and buggy.
II haven't had it." replied the Santa Fe
lawyer.
Yes you have; this is it," insisted the
policeman.
"This rig? Why this horse and buggy
belongs to my father-in-law. Mr.. Farms
worth"
1t took several minutes to explain to
Mr.. Soper that he had made a mistake
and drove off with the wrong rig. Mr..
Farnsworth's horse is black and he had
been driving brown mare.
Farmer Bradbury had already offered
a reward, and as all the policemen in
town were watching for the horse and
buggy it will take several rounds of ci
gars to make Mr.. Soper square with the
police force.

THE FIRST OF MAY.
Written for The CoURIER.l

The merry sound of the soda fountain
We daily hear
FKz. fizz,
The bicycle riders are gaily riding
Both far and near
Whizz, whizz.
The moving vans go numbering by
With household goods piled up skyhigh.
And We nudge each other and softly say
Its the first of May"
The straw hat on the street appears,
And suits so loud that they hurt our ears,
The tennis racquet and base ball bat,
White shoes and bloomers and all Of
that,
And we nudge each other and softly say
It's the first OF May
The fisherman goes out with lot of
flies
He comes home again with string Of
lies
The poets all write from morning to
night
And we nudge each other and softly say
Its the first of May"
