KENTUCKY AROUSED.
Leading Citizens Of the State Unite in Con
denmin9 the Insult to Sec. Carlisle.

Louisville, Oct 25.-There is no doubt
that the outrage perpetrated upon Sec
rotary Carlisle at Covington, Thurs
day night. has put Kentucky in the
Republican column. kilograms have
come from all parts of the state. from
men who heretofore have supported
Bryan. saying that they now will vote
for his defeat.
The strongest evidence is from the
Democrats who have been for Palmer
and Buckner. Hundreds have an
nounced that they will sacrifice Palmer
for Mckinley to make sure of Bryans
defeat. The action of the ruffians is
condemned by the better classes of even
the silver follows, and those who in
iorse it. few though they be, are not
worthy of recognition.
The worst part of it all is that the
plot to egg Carlisle was premeditated
AS early as September 80. before Mr.
Carlisle had announced that he would
come to Kentucky the Greensboro
Messenger, owned and edited by Trey
Woodson, the silver Democratic ma
tional committeeman for Kentucky,
contained a letter from Covington in
which it was said that plans were be-
ng laid to egg Carlisle, and that eggs
had been purchased for that purpose in
lrder that they would sure to be rotten.
Mr.. Woodson vouched for this editori-
lilly by saying that he had the name of
the correspondent.
Mr. Carlisle will speak at Greensboro
N Monday, and at Louisville on
Wednesday,. Mayor Todd of Louisville
vas quick to take action. Early Fri
lay he sent Mr.. Carlisle a long mess
age expressing modification at the blot
on the name of the state and adding
Il wish to assure you that on the &C.
casion of your visit to Louisville | will
see to it personally that every facility
FOR free speech and fair hearing will
be afforded you. Rowdyism will be
checked, even if it requires the whole
police force TO do So
Fifty leading citizens of all parties
signed the following message:
You will have such complete protec-
zion against insult and so grand an
ovation when you come to Louisville as
viii forever wipe out the attempt of
Thursday night to destroy free speech.
| 20 dishonor the fair name of Kentucky
and discredit her foremost citizen"

About five years ago we lost child

My wife has never been the same since.
The nerves of the stomach being affect

Why even the whites of couple of eggs
distressed her SO that she was forced
to give up all work.
Gases in the stomach at the same
time affected her heart until 1t seemed
that death would result at any moment.
Last April / saw Puritana adver-
tised in a paper and was attracted by
the name of DIR. Crosby which is well
known In our family. At the suggestion
of my wife we tried Puritana.

Now, after several bottles, she eats
three good meals day and food does

Before trying Purtana. we had at
