The Peorlc Must Help.

Pittsburg Commercial Gazette: ut Is
known to all that the reform plank was
written by Mr.. Quay himself and hence It
Is doubly incumbent upon him. as the d.
recting head Of the party organization.
to execute the demands Of the convention.
That means a great deal more than the
people yet fully realize. 1t means an end
to the use OF money in politics. to cor
porate control OF municipal and state leg
islatlon and TO the use of corporate and
official influence IN primary election and
nominating conventions. 1t also means
freedom and fairness in bestowing state,
county and municipal contracts, and the
punishment of all forms of favoritism in
the awarding of contracts and the grant
Ing of franchises in which the public have
an interest. This sounds the death knell
of ring domination in the city councils
and In the state legislature. These are
the most fragrant abuses Of the day
abuses under which the people have been
suffering for many years, and to the eradi-
cation of which the party now stands
squarely pledged. But the battle for re-
form Is only begun and to win out COM
plete,y the pAopld must rally around
their standard bearer. hold mp the hands
of the state committee and bend every
energy to the work of organization. The
Republicans of the state have cleared the
way for reform. and all that is now re-
Qulred Is for the friends of purer politics
and better government to do their whole
duty"

STRANGERS ON THE KEYS.

ban Fiiibusters.

Washington, Oct. 23.-Reports re-
ceived at the navy department from
Capt. NJ. L. Johnson, commander of the
cruiser Cincinnati, which is engaged in
looking out for Cuban filibusters, about
the Florida Keys, are to the effect that
parties of Cubans are gathering in the
Keys, but not to any formidable extent.
Whence they come Capt johnson has
been unable to ascertain, although he
has made every effort to do so. Groups
of them, all strangers, have been noted
from time to time, but there is nothing
to indicate how they reached the Keys,
the presumption being that they came
under cover of night. All of them are
apparently engaged in fishing, turtle
hunting or other peaceful occupations,
but Capt. johnson considers their ac-
tions so serious that he has deemed it
worth while to make a report on the sub
jeot to the navy department. So far
the Cincinnati has not been able to fad
any filibusters

GEN. EWING OVERCOME.
Physically Frustrated While Ad.
dressing the Supreme Court.

Washington, Oct. 28.-General Thomas
Ewing of Ohio, the distinguished lawyer
and physician, was physically prostrated
in the supreme court of the United
States yesterday afternoon while arguing
q case. He had not been we'll for several
days and the strain imposed by the exer-
tion of speaking was too great. Remedies
were applied and in short time he was
so far recovered that, accompanied by
Mrs. Ewing, he was driven to his hotel.
1t was noted as q singular coincidence by
Justice Field and some of the elder at
taches of the court that General Ewing
should have been overcome almost in the
same spot and under the same circum-
stances as his father, the venerable
Thomas Ewing, ST., on the 22d of Octo-
ber 1869.

Dainty Table Appointments.

However simple the bill Of fare. the
table appointment should always be
clean and inviting. With q little care
directed toward removing spot when
It appears, tablecloth may be used to
serve for several occasions, and remain
spotlessly clean; while rumpled nap
kin or a coffee stain upon the table,
cloth is accountable for many an un-
eaten breakfast and many sick head
ache. The center of the table should
always be occupied with some refresh
ing plant or flower. It may be fern
or slender rose in it's swaying vase,
but whatever it is It will act as an ap-
petizer and tonic. A crisp bowl Of let
tuce or dish of fresh radishes helps
out the effect of the floral decoration.

ARCENTINE's CROPS.
Reduction of 15 Per Cent. in Wheat.
Corn To Re Fed to Cattle.

:. Washington, Oct. 28.-Minister Will
liam l. Buchanan of Ohio, representing
the United States in the Argentine Re.
public, reports that the probabilities of
the wheat and corn harvest of the
province of Buenos Ayres indicate q re-
duction of about Is per cent. in tbs
wheat acreage for next year as compared
with last year. This is partly due to the
1act that the cultivation of corn inter-
fered with the planting and partly from
the ravages of locusts. The indications
are that the amount of wheat for ex.
port next year will he moderate and not
In excess of the exports for this year.
The corn crop which is now being
shipped abroad was large, but the quan.
tity suitable for export was greatly
below the quantity expected. 1t
VIII be impossible to cure the large
amount remaining and it will be used
In fattening cattle, which industry

DAMAGING TESTIMONY
The Prosecutions Rebuttal
in the Durrant Case.

stand-Adolph Hobe's Evidence.
Az to the Lecture NOTES.-The Blood
on the Shoe Found in the Study
of Pastor Gibson.
San Francisco, Oct. 23.-The defense
closed its case yesterday without intro
dncing any further testimony and the
nrosecution Immediately began to put
IN its testimony in rebuttal. This was
damaging to Durrant and included evil
dence as to the notes of DR.. Cheney's
lecture on the afternoon of Blanche La
mont's disappearance, which he obtained
from fellow student. Five trustees of
the Emanuel Baptist church were called
and denied that they had about the
time of the murder given any instruc-
tions to Durrant to repair the electrical
apparatus of the church.
The Victims Uncle Testifies.
They admitted that previous to that
he had been requested to make repairs
and in January had been asked to correct
defect in the apparatus connected with
some time bells; but none of them had
pairs connected with the sun burners.
Among the trustees was G. G. Noble,
unce of Blanche Lamont. The treas.
urer of the church said he had allowed
Durrant 81. 80 for material used in re-
pairing the electrical apparatus in Janu-
sry.
Adolph Hobe's Evidence.
Adolph Hobe, an old schoolmate of
Durrant's, testified that he had seen him
at the ferry on the afternoon of April IL,
the day of the Minnie Williams murder,
with a young lady of Miss Williams
stature, and with cap such as she wore,
at $50 O'Clock. Durrant testified that
he left the ferry before o'clock. Some
Of the most important testimony of the
trial was then introduced in the evidence
Of E. +. Glazer, fellow student Of Dur
rants.
AS to tho Lecture Notes.
He testified that on the 10th of April
he, with Durrant, went into q room in
the college, and while he read his notes
of the lecture on April Durrant made
notes in his notebook. They discussed
the points raised and Glazer read his
notes entirely through. Though they
discussed the points of the lecture Dur
rant did not read from his notes during
the three-quarters of an hour they were
engaged.
Grease, Not Blooc, on the Shoe.
Professor Thomas Price, the leading
chemist of the city, was called as an ex-
pert and disposed of the mysterious shoe
found in PASTORS Gibson's study with a
stain on the sole by saying he had found
the stain to be grease spot and not
blood. Price went into details as to illu-
minating gas in use in this city. He said
il Durrant had inhaled it over the sun
burners as he said he did, for four or five
minutes, he would have been entirely
overcome. Had he remained two min
utes he would have been overcome.
Reporters on the Stand.
Charles Morrison, reporter, testified
that Durrant had told him he went to
the church on the afternoon of April 3,
between and 4:30 O'Clock instead of
4:55, as Durrant had testified. j. S.
Dunnigan, another reporter, testified
that he and DIR. Gilbert F. Graham had
visited Durrant in prison ON April 20.
He was requested by Durrant to step
aside while Graham talked privately with
the defendant The prosecution expects
to begin its argument this week.

100000 ACRES INVOLVED.
Tho Famous Greer County Case To
Be Argued in the Supreme Court,

The Famous Greer County Case To
Be Argued in the Supreme Court.
Washington, Oct. 28.-The somewhat
famous Greer county, Tex, case will be
argued in the supreme court of the
United States to-day. This grows out of
q controversy between the United States
and the state Of Texas as to the right Of
Jurisdiction over what is known as Greer
county, both parties claiming possession.
The area Of territory involved is about
one and half million acres. The ques-
tion at issue is construction of the
treaty Of 1919 between Spain and the
United States, whether or not the divid-
ing line between Texas and the United
States shall be the Tooth meridian of
longitude west of Greenwich, as laid
down in a map published in 1918 and
adopted In the treaty, or as it really is
shown by later and corrected surveys.

pain, headache, backache, and nervous dis.
turbances, or the general health not good,
the judicious use of medicine should be
employed. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
tion is the best restorative tonic and nerv.
inc at this time. The best bodily condition
results from its use. It's a remedy spes
cially indicated for those delicate weak
nesses and arrangements that affiict wos
menkind at one period or another. You'll
find that the woman who has faithfully
used the Prescription " is the picture Of
health, she looks WeH and she feels sceH.
In catarrhal inflammation in chronic dis
placements common to women, where there
are symptoms of backache, dizziness Of
fainting, bearing down sensations, disor.
dered stomach, moodiness, fatigue, etc.,
the trouble is surely dispelled and tho
sufferer brought back to health and good
spirits.
