make it certain that they could not have

mate had been entirely different from
those existing at present. The remains

CONDOLENCES OF CLIENTS.
A Noted English Precedent Which stamp

1.-THE matter of condolences between
counsel and client is one Of great inter.
est and importance, said we'll known
jurist and ex-judge the other day.
.'As to the duty of lawyer ON the
trial of case where he has been in
formed by his client that he is guilty,
the-best and most controlling example
is that of Charles james Phillips, the
eminent British barrister who in many
directions was rated in his time as Sec
ond only to Lord Erskine.
He was defending Courvoisier, who
was indicted for the murder of Lord
Russell During tho trial, on the exam
nation of very important witness for
the people. the accused was much over
come, and in the intensity of his emo
ton communicated either to Mr. Phil
lips or TO his solicitor the fact that he
was guilty of the crime.
Mr. Phillips Immediately asked for
an adjournment of the case and for q
consultation with the judges The con-
sultation was granted, and Mr. Phillips
stated to the bench that the accused had
confessed his guilt and requested the
judges 70 point out to him his path Of
duty. Tho judges, after deliberation,
stated that he would have a perfect
right to make such legal and logical de-
auctions from the evidence as he
thought tended to the exculpation of the
accused, but it would be unprofessional
to state to tho jury any personal belief
of his innocence.
In his argument to the jury Mr..
Phillips. carried away by his emotions
and imagination, did state to the jury
his own personal belief in the innocence
of his client, and this statement of his
occasioned much criticism nfterward. :"

FORGERY IS CHARGED.
1t Is Claimed That Timekeeper Resorted to That Means to Cover Up His
 Shortages

Montgomery, Nov. 25.-(SpeciaL)-T. G. Wilson, time clerk in the office of the su- perintendent of the Midland division of the Plant system here, was arrested to- day on three charges of forgery. In de- fault of 5000 bond he is in jail.
 The abstract statement given out by the officers of the company are that Will son got short in his accounts and in or- der to conceal his delinquency he forged some discharge tickets and perhaps other things.
 Auditors were put to work on his books today and the extent of his forgery will not be apparent until their labors are completed.
 In the cases so far developed the amounts are small, all being less than $300. Wilson has heretofore stood high in the office and only a few months ago he was promoted to his present place. with $125 per month salary. He has q wife and two young children, who are now visiting friends in Atlanta, from which place the family came.
 Wilson withholds his statement until his preliminary trial, which will probably be held tomorrow.
 Wilson is a brother of the baggage master who was recently charged with robbing trunks on the Western railroad. The defendant here was formerly trav- cling auditor and assistant pay master He is about 30 years of age

of all cases of consumption can, if taken in the earlier stages of the disease, be cured. This may seem like bold assertion to those familiar only with the means geper- ally in use for its treatment :; as, nasty cod liver oil and its filthy emulsions, extract of malt, whiskey, different preparations of hypophosphites and such like bdiffaffves.
 Although by many believed to be incura- b1e, there is the evidence of hundreds of living witnesses to the fact that, in all its earlier stages consumption is curable disease. Not every case, but q large per, eenfage of cases, and we believe, fully o5 per cenf. are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, even after the disease has progressed so far as to induce repeated bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering cough with copious expectoration (includ- ing tubercular matter), great loss of flesh and extreme cancellation and weakness.
 Doyou doubt that hundreds of such cases reported to lis as cured by Golden Med ical Discovery were genuine cases of that dread and fatal disease? You need not take our word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, been so pronounced by the best and most experienced home physicians, who have no interest whatever in mis- strongly prejudiced and advised against a trial of Golden Medical Discovery" but who have been forced to confess that it surpasses, in curative power over this fatal malady, all other medicines with which they are acquainted. Nasty cod liver oil and its filthy "emulsious" and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to bene- fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey. and various preparations of the hypophos. phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
 The photographs of large number of those cured of consumption, bronchitis, lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh and Kindred maladies. have been skillfully reproduced in a book of I6o pages which will be mailed to you, on re- ceipt of address and six cents in stamps. You can then write those cured and learn their experience.
