was broken down, I felt weak and tired
,,Io, all the time and never had what healthy
to appetite, 1 had none, and food always
caused misery in my stomach These
were the symptoms that were-every one
of them-a dreadful reality to me- and
how 1 was able to endure and suffer so
long.
II knew from neighbors and friends that
Drs; Copeland and Shepard had cured hun
dreds of women even worse than / was,
and I made up my mind to see what could
be done for me. After three days of treat
ment felt real improvement, and when
the frst month was up, W -rds fail to express;
how much ! had gained in comfort and rest
and strength. OF course / had expected
hep but had no idea in a single month 1
would get back so much of my lost heath.
1t did not take long to finish the work of

Then a motion was made to have General
Kelly of Omaha read the platform of the
socialist party. The motion was carried with
some dissenting voices and General Kelly
arose. He said he would decline to read the
platform, az he did not come disturber

opposed to speechmaking by any one on the

not desire to make speech, and only
wanted to offer word Of explanation. The

November Expected to Show the
Largest Vote They Ever PolIed.


Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
RICHMOND, Va, September 9, 1885,
In Lynchburg there has developed COM
democratic executive committee. as result
of which several members of the commit
tee have Withdrawn. A. w. Nowlin, the
chairman, rendered his resignation, which
was accepted. Messrs. William King, jr ::
d. Z. Morrison, Charles NJ. BIa oxford, Will
liam Leay and ]. r. Williams nave all
resigned members Of the committee. The
Chicago platform was too bitter a Fill to
several of the members OF the committee
hence their designations.
1t is a matter of general comment here
that the republicans in Virginia are putting
up the most remarkable fight made by that
party in Virginia for twenty-five years.
Leaders of the party from various parts Of
the state are gathering at state Eeadquar-
tiers in this state every week, and the cam
pagn is beiag conducted on purely bust
ness principles and according to system
attic and carefully organized methods. The
republicans in Virginia are sparing neither
money or labor to get a strong and perma-
nent foothold in the state and their work
IN the interests of Mckinley and Hobart
Daily conferences among the leaders are
being held at republican headquarters in
Richmond. and plans for the campaign ar
ranged. There is reason to believe that at
the November election the republicans will
rake the best showing they Lave made for
many years IN Virginia. and there is a
probability that they will capture perhaps
half the congressional districts in the state.
The Campaign, the organ of the republi-
can party of this state, W. P. Kent, editor
made its first appearance today. 1t is a
weekly paper and issued 1900 copies The
editor is son of Mai. r. C. Kent, the DEM

INDIANAPOLIS, September 8. - The
New York delegation held a meeting at
1880. and with the evident idea that there
was not to be a financial plank in the
platform that would suit them, for they
agreed unanimously that the New York
delegation should present this platform and
ask for its consideration:

nizes gold as the best and only accepted
standard of commercial value thereby pos

DETER one next year. In the past week
more than fifty cottages were leased for
1877. and nearly every one by persons who
were here for the first time this season.
great many are western people. The tide

PINGREE'S METHODS.
Dry Bones In Michigan Promised a
Severe Railing.
Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star.

Severe RattIinE.
Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
DETROIT, Mich, September l, 1896.
Mayor Pingree has buried the hatchet
with Chairman d. NJ. Ferry of the repub-
lican state central committee and the old
machine will conduct the campaign. The
fact that Mr.. Ferry and his friends are
the heaviest contributors to the republican
campaign funds had something to do with
the adjustment of differences and Mr.. Pin
gree's cordial greeting toward those whom
in the past he has considered his political
enemies. Since his nomination Mr.. Pin
gree has been much more conservative in
his attitude toward corporations and other
wicked things, and his friends are assur-
ing folks that if elected he will not be
nearly SO bad as apprehended. 1t is pretty
certain that he will rattle up a lot of old
bones about the state, but 1t is generally
admitted that there are lot of old bones
that need rafting.
Don NJ. Dickinson has as yet taken no
part in the political complications that
have arisen and shows no signs of an in
tenton to do SO. Like Cleveland, he is not
saying a word, and the sound money
democrats are proceeding without him,
and, thus far,have got on very well. Elliott
g. Stevenson, the junior member of the
law firm of Dickinson, Thurber & Steven
son, is an out-antfSout silver man and is
supporting the Chicago ticket and plat
form. This has led to dissolution of his
partnership relations with Mr.. Dickinson
and the private secretary, which took effect
September 1, and with the dissolution of
the partnership ceased a political combine
which was absolutely unique. Dickinson
of course, was at the head of the combine
and it's moving spirit and now, instead of
pulling with him, Stevenson will be against
him. Stevenson is no longer chairman of
the state central committee, but Fred A.
Baker was elected at his suggestion and
he will be very close to the management
of the campaign.
