Reader, did you ever take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR, the "KING OF
LIVER MEDICINES ?n Everybody needs
take liver remedy. 1t is sluggish or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and INDIGESTION are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose Of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid Of these trou-
bles, and give tone TO he whole sys-
tenn. For q laxative simmons Liver
Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. 1t

going the same way next year.

been worked so successfully as To
defracd one New York bank Of
$4,000, and it is not known but what
other banks may by this time have
been equal sufferers.

TIE SCHEME.

About a month ago we'll dressed.
slick talking stranger arrived in
Wheeling and registered at the
Stamm House. He gave his name
as Howard and stated that he was
in the city for the purpose of organ
izing a collection agency. He adver
tised and received a number of ap-
plieations, and he engaged some six
or seven of these, STIMULATING in all
cases that they must be able to fur
nish bank references This the APP
plicants, who were generally men Of
good standing, were IN all cases able
to do. In this manner letters were
secured from five banks in this city
testifying to the good character of
certain parties. The letters were, it
is understood, 10 each case written
on the letter heads of the banks and
signed by the cashier or some other
official of the bank These testimon-
ials were given TO the oily Mr.. How
ard, and then that individual sud
denly disappeared from Wheeling,

HE GOT $4,000

Within a very few days, however,
one of the Wheeling banks received
a letter from its New York CORES
pendent TO the effect that it, the New
York bank, had honored the Wheel
ing banks letter of credit to NJ
Dreyfus to the amount of $4,000.
The Wheeling bankers Immediately
wired back that they had given no
such letter of credit, and by the next
mail the alleged letter came back,
returned by the New York bank. On
examination in Wheeling it appear
ed that the letter of credit was Il
very clever forgery. 1t was the orig
inal letter Of recommendation given
10 the swindler Howard. The writ
ing shove the signature had been re
moved by some acid, and then the
letter OF credit authorizing the New
York bank To honor the checks of NJ
Dreyfus for So, coo had been written
in. What made he fraud more de
eeptiye was the fact that the swind
Ter Howard, or Drey fus, did not pre-
sent the letter of credit at the New
FORK bank himself, but mailed or
had it mailed from this city. He
then called at the New York bank.
inquired if 1t had received such a
letter. and succeeded in getting the
money, as above stated
The New York bank is, of course,
the loser of the money, unless the
clever Mr. Howard, alias Mr. Drey
fus, can be located.

DOCTRINE OR FIGHT.
NO FOREIGN NATION CAN CHANGE THE
BOUNDARY LINE OF ANY AMER
lcAN REPUBLIC.
Congress Promptly sustains the Presidents
Warlike Ultimatum-A Commission Is
Appointed to Investigate the Merits
of the Case-It Looks Like Fight.

Assuming, however, that the atti-
tude of Venezuela will remain un-
changed, the dispute has reached
such stage as to make it now incum-
bent upon the United States to take
measures to determine with sufficient
certainty for its justification what is
the true divisional line between the
Republic of Venezuela and British
Guiana. The inquiry to that end
should of course be conducted care
fully and judicially, and due weight
should be given to all available evi-
dence, records and facts in support OF
the claims of both parties.
l am nevertheless firm in my con-
viction that while it is a grievous
thing to contemplate the two great
English-speaking people of the world
as being otherwise than friendly COM
petitors in the onward march of civil
ization and strenuous and worthy
rivals in all the arts of peace, there is
no calamity which a great nation can
invite which equals that which follow
supine submission to wrong and in
justice, and the consequent loss OF
national self-respect and honor be
meath which is shielded and defended
peoples safety and greatness"
GROVER CLEVELAND.
Hopkinsville Kentuckian., 1895-12-20

Tom Sebree, a Madisonville negro,
fell from the north bound St. Louis
express near darlington Monday
night and was knocked senseless.
He had been attending a festival at
the Hecla mines and instead of board
ing the train at the station he "swung
on" as it was leaving the coal chute
and was hurled twenty feet into e
ditch. His head was badly cut, and
when he was picked up twas thought
that he had been fatally hurt, but he
soon rallied and will recover. There
is some talk Of a suit, but there ap-
pears to be no grounds whatever for
bringing an action against the COM
pany.
