Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
NEWPORT, Ind. Nov. pa bold murder
and robbery was committed AT Cayuga, six
miles north Of here, last night. Thomas j..
Stark. a saloon keeper at that place. was
wayIaid about 1880 o'clock, terribly beaten
and robbed. He had about s135 on his per-
son when he left the saloon. He resides two
blocks from his place of business and had
not gone over $50 feet when he was as
saulted. Mr.. Stark. although sixty-two
years old. struggled desperately with the
desperadoes. 1t is believed he was getting
the best OF them, when they broke down a
small sugar stub" that was near and
struck him a blow across the Dack OF tne
head. which rendered him unconscious. He
was then relieved Of all the money he had
and left for dead.
After a few minutes he revived sufficiently
TO walk and he started home. He seemed
half unconscious and had trouble in finding
the gate. There are blood stains long the
fence for twenty feet. He finally got in and
went upstairs by himself and said to his
folks. who were in bed: Where are all of
your
we are here,' said his wife. What is
the matter?'
They've got nay pocketbook," said he,
after which he dropped into a stupor and
died at Z o'clock this morning.
Suspicion rests on home talent. The citi-
gems of Cayuga are greatly excited over the
brutal murder, and have telegraphed to
Rosedale for bloodhounds. If the guilty
parties are found they will undoubtedly be
dealt with without judge or jury. Mr.. Stark
was a fine old gentleman and was respected
by everyone. The funeral services viii be
held ar his residence Monday afternoon.

And the Result To Be Pub.
1ished in This Paper.
CAN HOBBS SUBSTANTIATE
HIS CLAIM?

In view of the great Importance Of this
challenge, not only to the citizens of In
dianapolis, but to. the entire civilized world.
the Sentinel feels justified In accepting II.
The public will be interested in the out
come of what may be properly termed a
public investigation of a discovery that
would seem destined to become famous and
prove Of incalculable importance to the
great mass of people who are suffering in
one way and another from kidney all
ments.
The offer made by Hobbs. in his chal-
lenge above alluded to, is a simple and
plainly-worded one. In a nutshell. he as
serts hat he has discovered a remedy that
will positively cure that most stubborn and
common of all complaints, disease of the
kidneys, which is wrecking men and women
by the score daily.
The good that can be accomplished by a
universal specific, one that can be admins
tered in a simple and plain way-in other
words. a grand universal medicine for all
kidney troubles-will be hailed as a godsend
everywhere.
The claims made for the remedy in ques-
ton are. speaking in a general sense, that
the Hobbs Medicine Company. of Chicago
and San Francisco, are the owners Of an
asparagus kidney remedy which they posi-
lively assert will cure all kidney diseases.
with the exception of those where tumors
and ulcers have formed, and a surgical
operation is necessary.
1t Is not the purpose in this article to en-
ter into a general discussion of the vast
number of different forms of kidney
troubles. but to treat them as a whole, as
space in this paper does not permit us to do
otherwise.
1t is thought that the only possible way to
publicly determine the value of DR.. Hobbs
discovery is TO give away to all those who
are interested in this matter a sampie
packet Of this medicine and to have 1t dom
in such an open manner that none car
question the honesty of the test. A large
number of samples have been sent to the
Sentinel office and will be handed out TO all
who apply, beginning Monday at 9 a. m.
and continuing Tuesday until 8 p. m. Nov.
Is and 26.
There will also be given to each
for a free sample a little book on Kidney
Diseases, which sets out in a clear, plain
manner just such as you want
to know.
Bear in mind that the free distribution at
the Sentinel office begins Monday morning
at 3 o'clock and ends Tuesday at 5 p. NJ

ALLISON HIS FAVORITE.
Senator Warren Says the Iowan VIII

BOSTON, Nov. 3.-The Boston Traveller
to-day prints an interview with Senator
f. f. Warren, of Wyoming. on the posi-
bilities Of presidential candidates. He says
that although Reed and Mckinley are
generally named for the presidency Allison
will make a very strong showing. They
are all very masterful men, and they are
all very popular" said the Senator. Mr..
Reed is a New Highlander TO the back
bone and it is only natural that the peo-
pie of New England shoulds be with him
as a unit. Governor Mckinley is the pride
of the people of the interwestern States.

Is as strongly intrenched as ever. The peo-
pie out there are crying for a repeal of the

East declare that times never have been
better than they are at present" continued
the Senator. II cannot say this of the
Northwest. Business is improving, how

hundred horses, and thinks there will be
no trouble in securing that number, as
several hundred are in sight. The animals
sold at his sale last year brought uniform
ly good -prices-better, In fact. than at other
sales. Another feature of that sale was
the number of speed horses sold that were
money winners. Nellie McCrory won for
Barney Demarest $500 the first race she
started in and was never behind the money
all season. Similar reports in proportion
come from other horses.
