FIRE CHIEF WEBSTER INJURED.
He and "BucL" StehIin Painfully
Burned by Gas Explosion.

There was small fire in the cellar of
the Circle Park Hotel yesterday morning
which caused the injury of Chief Webster
and Buck Stehlin, the latter of chemical
No. 1. The fire was discovered at about s
o'clock by two boys employed in the hotel.
The bartender a Joseph Emminger's saloon
turned in the alarm and in short time the
chemicay from headquarters was on hand.
second alarm brought a number of other
companies, but they were not needed.
When the fire was traced to the cellar
near the elevator shaft Webster and Steh-
lin started into the cellar with a chemical
line. They were half way down the cellar
when there was explosion of natural
gas. They were both painfully burned.
StehlinS injuries were most severe and he
was sent to the City. Hospital. where he is
getting along nicely Chief Webster was
burned about the face and hands, but not
seriously The explosion was caused by the
melting of a gas pipe.
The fire would doubtless have gone up
carried through the building. except for the
the elevator car down to the first floor and
thus shut off the draft. Four streams of
water finally subdued the flames before
they had spread much. The hotel was
flled with smoke and gave the employees
and guests scare. The damage is but a
few dollars unless the smoke has injured
the hotel furnishing. The building and
hotel owned by Mrs. Maria Rhodius
and are insured.

The Honest Shakers and Their

and the grocer or the butcher who gives
us short weights. is a thief However, their
knavery touches nothing but our pocket
book. There is another widespread form of
misrepresentation of a far more dangerous
and villainous character.
We refer to the false statements and
worthless guarantees that frequently ac-
company medicines. To guarantee a medi-
cine to cure is to brand 1t as a quack prod
uct. If we can guarantee to cure disease,
then we can guarantee everlasting life.
for in "a large majority of cases people die
of disease, the proportion of violent or ac-
cidental deaths being very small.
The Shakers have always been known az
a most upright and honorable people, and
their success in the manufacture of medi-
cines has also been well known. 1t is
therefore not surprising to find them pur-
suing a very original and novel plan for
the introduction of their remedy for dys-
pepsia.
These God-fearing people. whose motto
has always been Try all things and hold
fast that which is good" have put upon
the market ten-cent sample bottles of their
product, or sufficient to give 1t trial.

sum OF ten cents, a person can usually de-

of dyspepsia which it won't help, but these
are very rare. In most cases the first dose
relieves all distress. and an increase OF
appetite at once follows.
All druggists have 1t, and the next time
you are troubled with indigestion send out
and try this popular and successful prod
uct. 1t represents nearly hundred years
OF patient investigation and study.

what purports to have been circular is
sued to all national banks by the American
Bankers Association on March r. 1893. The
alleged circular reads as follows:
THE interests of NATIONAL bankers re-
quire financial legislation by Congress. Sill
yer, silver certificates and treasury notes
upon a gold basis be made the only money.
This Will require the authorization of from
$500, 900 to 81, zoo, 600 of new bonds as a
basis of circulation. You will at once re
tire one-third of your circulation and call
in one-haf of your loans. Be careful to
make money strlngency felt among your
patrons, especially among influential bust
ness men. Advocate an extra session OF
Congress for the repeal of the purchasing
clause of the Sherman law and act with the
other banks of your city in securing a
large petition to Congress for it's uncCn-
dition repeal as per accompanying form.
Use personal influence with congressman
and particularly let your wishes be known
to your Senators. The future life of ma

This fake was sprung in the su inner of
1898 and circulated SO extensively tIat the
association had printed circular reply, to
the inquiries it received In this circular,
signed by E. H. Pallen, chairman of the
executive council the association says:
You will observe that the circular is I'M
signed and dated on the Sabbath. The as

is not responsible for it. It's language is
the very best evidence of its falsehood as

THE LEGISLATURE SAFE
EXECUTIVE COMMIT
TEE REVIEWS THE SITUATION.
VIII BE All Right on Joint Ballot,
but Special Effort Necessary
to Carry the House.

The Republican State executive commit
tee met yesterday afternoon to dispose of
a number of routine matters and after adj
Journed there was an informal talk over the
legislative nominees. Two causes have
led the committee to believe
heretofore that special effort
is necessary to fcarry the Legislature.
One of these is the fact that the election
is held under the law of 1885. which is a
prize example of Democratic gerry
mander, making it necessary for the Re-
publicans to carry the State by thirty thou
sand in order to get a majority in the lower
house. The second cause is the fact that
in all the close legislative districts of the
State the Popocrats and Populists have flu
sion the legislative ticket, the fusion in
volving twenty-eight members up to date.
These include the districts of Clinton,
Boone and Montgomery. where two Sena-
tors and Representative are involved;
each of these three counties separately,
with a Representative in each; Carroll
county; the representative district of White
and Pulaski; the senatorial district of Car
roll, White and Pulaski; Daviess county
with it's Representative: Green county with
one Representative; Spencer county War
wick county. the district of Knox, Gibson
and Vanderburgh, and a number of others
where the Popocrats felt that they could
defeat the Republican candidates by sup
porting Populist nominees. After going
over the figures carefully and discussing
detailed reports from each county in the
districts involved the members of
the committee having this matter
in charge are satisfied that the
Republicans are in no danger
of losing the Legislature on joint ballot,
though the fusion on legislative tickets
makes it possible that the fusfonists may
carry the lower house If they can pursuade
their own people to stand by the deal 1t
is found, however. that in a great many
counties the old-time Democrats are re-
fusing absolutely to vote for Populists as
legislative candidates. They declare that
Bryan is a bitter enough pill without ask
ing them to vote for men who have been
Populists since the party was organized.

NAMES WITHOUT AUTHORITY.
People Who Refuse to Help Receive
PODOcrat Bryan.

Sunday morning the Sentinel printed the
names of an alleged reception committee
to do the honors on Mr.. Bryan's arrival.
Many of these will have nothing to do with
the affair. Among the names was that of
]. A. Dynes, a deputy sheriff. Mr.. Dynes
has never been anything but a Republican,
and he was true blue on the money ques-
ton long before the adoption of either of
the party platforms and an original Nc
Kinley man. He says he does not like TO
have his name banded about in this way.
His attorneys have advised him that such
a statement under the present conditions is
libelous. and he is considering what
he will do about the matter
Louis G. Deschier says that his name
was published in the list of names of the
committee TO receive Popocratic candidate
Bryan without his authority. There was no
expectation on his part of acting as a men,
Der of the committee nor has he any SYM
pathy with the Bryan movement, although
he is a Democrat.

PICTURES IN SHERIFF's WINDOW.
No Attempt to Show Discourtesy TO
Rryan.

An evening paper printed an account of
an alleged interview between Mayor Taggart
and Sheriff Womack in regard to Mr.. Bry-
an passing through the sheriff's office and
out window to reach the speakers stand
for his evening address in the courthouse
yard. 1t was stated that Mr.. Womack had
made it a condition of the granting Of the
request that he would not remove the pic
tUre of Mckinley which adorns the window
through which Mr.. Bryan would pass. This
is not correct. There nothing said
about the pictures in the converse ton.
Later, when Mr.. Womack thought of the
fact that the pictures are there, he con-
suited some of his friends about removin
them for the occasion. Some of his friends
counSeled him to take them down, but the
advice of others prevailed when the matter
was placed in it's right light 1t was argued
that to remove the pictures would be
discourtesy to both Mr. Bryan and Mr..
Mckinley, and that it surely would not be
the wish of Mr.. Bryan that they be taken
down. 1t was also shown that under the
circumstances it would be simply a neat
act of courtesy on the part of Mr.. Bryan
to bow to the picture of Mr.. Mckinley as
ne passed through the window.

search of money. A gold and silver watch
were taken and also small amount of
money. A gold coin the thieves scorned to
take, though it was lying in the bottom of
q small drawer which had apparently been
carefully examined. Mr.. Armstrong sus-
poets four young men, who were near the
place as he drove away In the morning.
