lie was Poorly Dressed.
The New York Herald on Monday
contained the following:
II think it is rather tough" said
Magistrate Brann, in the Yorkyille
Police Court yesterday, "that man.
merely because he is poorly dressed,
cannot walk upon the streets without
boiDg arrested.
A very intelligent looking man of
about 40 years stood before him and
appeared grateful for these words Of
encouragement. He said he was John
Clayton Temple, son of former Gov.
Temple of Delaware He had a number
of letters, which he handed to the
magistrate, explaining who he was, and
among these was one addressed to Gen.
Martin T. McMahon, from Gov. Robert
L. Rex nolds of Delaware, asking him to
aid, if possible, the son of his prede-
cessor ty procuring for him some work.
Temple had been walking along Fifth
avenue late Saturday afternoon ana had
called at several houses, among others
that of Jacob A. Schiff. He said that
he had previously called at the offices
of the merchants, but had been invari-
ably mot by clerks, who gave him no
encouragement and refused to call their
employers attention to his desire to
secue work.
"Then," he said, II made up my
mind that / would call on the men at
their homes, for had 10 have work or
starve.
WAS the prisoner making any dis
tnrbance, policeman?"
No, your honor, simply going from
house to house. But Thought he might
annoy them, SO arrested him. /"
"Oh, you did, hey? Well, I'll dis
charge him."
First, however,. Magistrate Brann
questioned Temple concerning the
names and appearance of several of
Dclaware'H Governors. The man said
that he had come TO this city some
years ago and had managed to support
himself. Recently, however, he had
been unable to get employment and he
had become desperate.
William Temple was Acting Gov
ernor OF Delaware from May 9th, 1876,
to January, 1S47. He was Speaker of
the House of Representatives and as
sumed the duties of the Office of Gov
ernor upon the death of James Maull,

ELKINS OF 1894 AGAINST ELKINS
OF 1896.

In his speech before the State
League of Republican Clubs, held
at Fairmont, w. Va, on June 10,
1894, used the following language
on which comment is unnecessary:
"The President, followed by
that section of the party, the gold
monometallists, who advocate q
gold basis, which meaus increasing
the debts of the debtor classes and
decreasing the value, of property,

Sherman act was the cause Of panic
and trouble, and declared It's re-
peal would restore prosperity. s.
But in all this there was great
wrong done; it was the crime
against silver. The President and

HORRIBLE CRUELTIES
Upon ArmenIans at Hisenig by Turkish Sol.
diers Disguised as kurds.

Hartford, Ct, Feb 1i.-John Multi.
gan, an Armenian living in this CITY, has
received from relatives in Armenia the
details of the slaughter at Hisenig. The
people gave up their arms upon the
promise of the Turkish governor at
Maria, that their lives and property
would be saved if they did so. At j
O'Clock, the next morning, the town was
surrounded by 1900 soldiers of the Turkish
army, dressed as kurtls This was
Arbke's army and had been brought 50
miles to Hisenig.
About &, in the morning, the soldiers
made an attack on the town, and killed 25s
men, women and children. Some of the
women and young girls were carried away
to places unknown. About $50 persons
were wounded and left without homes.
Their homes were burned and they have
no place to go or anything to eat
Two priests were killed. The soldiers
not only killed the priests. but tortured
them and tried to make them deny their
faith and become Mohammedans. When
they found that they could not change
them, they cut of their arms, then their
legs, and lastly their heads
Some women they cut into four parts,
which they put up ON posts. Others they

When the nervous system has become
weakened from any cause, Paire's celery
compound builds it up as nothing else
can. 1t makes people well.
People in every walk of life have reason
to be grateful to Prof. Phelps of Dart
mouth, the eminent scientist who dis
covered Paine's celery compound He
understood the peculiar needs of the ner-
vous system; he knew that the backache,
headache, sleeplessness, loss of appetite,
and disordered blood all mean that the
nerves are weakened and inadequate to
the demands upon them. The experience
OF thousands has proven all over this
broad country that only Paine's celery
compound will give health to the nerves,
and through them to the entire body.
Colleges conferred upon DR.. Phelps
their highest honors for his invaluable in
vestigations in medicine, but all this
seems insignificant in comparison with
the chorus of gratitude that has gone up
all over the world from men, women, and
children, who have outgrown weakness
and the lack of health by the use Of
Paine's celery compound, the most won
derful nerve and blood restorative.

Since the war he has devoted himself to

The tension on the nervous system of

months, seriously weakened the health of
busy brain worker like Col. Follett and
his constitution, which even the hard

to succumb to nervous exhaustion.
What Col. Follett has to say in regard
to his restoration to health. cannot fail to
carry great weight. In letter to Wells

writes:

Crisp argued that the United States. sDgly
and alone, could undertake with the ex

| the free coinage OF silver.
Turner, Dem, Of Georgia, Crisp's col
league on the committee, opposed the Sen

argument to show that the United States
| could not maintain silver coinage and an
attempt to do SO would cause financial
convulsion in the country.

He asserted that one ounce Of gold wonld
