Catarrh Means Danger,

Because if unchecked it may lead di-
rectly to consumption. Catarrh is
caused by impure blood. This fact is
fully established. Therefore, it is use
less to try to cure catarrh by outward
applications or inhalants The true
way to cure catarrh is to purify the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparilla, the great
blood purifier, cures catarrh by it's
power to drive out all impurities from
the blood. Thousands of people testi-
fly that they have been perfectly and
permanently cured of catarrh by
Hoods SarSaparilla.

A. PRISONERS ATTEMPT TO ES.
CAPE FROM JAIL.
Was Discovered Last Night, After
Working Sixteen Nights With an
Improvised Saw--Had Three Bars
Nearly Sawed off, But Would Not
Have Had Time to Finish the Work
1.-The Man COnfesSeS.

Sheriff Bowen and Jailor Stevens
early this morning discovered an at
tempt on the part of prisoner
to saw his way out Of the
county jail. They first suspicioned
Sunday night that an attempt
was being made by prisoner to es-
cape, and have heard the saving noise
every night since, and finally located
it in the cells Of either Clarence
Crooks, held for shooting Bornt, at
AmbOy, or prisoner from Cottonwood
county, named Emerson, who was
placed in the Jail some time ago to
await his trial on the charge of bur-
glary. Last night the two officers de-
cided to remain up all night, and at
four o'clock this morning discovered
that the man who was doing the work
was Emerson, who had the cell next to
Crooks, on the first floor toward Wal
nut street.
An investigation showed that three
of the upright bars were nearly sawed
off close to the cross piece on TIE floor.
The cell was searched and an old table
knife was found, with nicked edge,
and the big blade of an old pocket
knife, with coarse teeth broken in.
Emerson made a confession this
forenoon, saying that he had been at
work on the bars for sixteen nights,
working four hours each night. The
work on two of the bars was COM
paratively easy, but the middle one of
the three was extremely hard steel,
and progress was very slow. AS he was
to go to Cottonwood county
next week for trial, he had
practically given up hope of being
able to get out by that time,
as he would have had to saw the three
bars off at the other ends. The bars
at the windows are of softer steel and
he could have gotten through them
in one night, He procured the
knives in table drawer when taken
w UIlC SCCOuu llOOl VI UllC JAN ol LIS
arrival, and had kept them concealed.
He suspicioned yesterday that he was
being watched, and made the teeth
in the table knife smaller, so as to
make less noise.
Emerson had diamond drill in his
possession when arrested, and is be,
lieved to be professional. He in.
tends to plead guilty to the charge
of burglary. He is about thirty
years old.
The bars of the cell are of chrome
steel and supposed to resist attempts
to saw out. Emerson could not have
gotten out if he had had a months
more time. The bars cannot we'll be
replaced, and the cell will hereafter
be used for persons charged with light
offenses, who will not undertake tC
complete the work.

Jackson who was tried for sending
obscene letters through the mails to
respectable young lady of that place,
was out about six hours, and just be-
fore supper yesterday returned YER
dict of guilty. Chimberski was called
up for sentence, and his attorney, H.
]. Knox, of Jackson, made plea for
the leniency of the court, owing to
the boys youth. Judge Lochren said
that the offense was serious one,
and if the prisoner was man of ma
ture years he would have given him
heavy penalty, but owing to the boys
youth he had decided to be lenient. He
then sentenced Chimberski to one year
in the state reformatOry at ST. Cloud
Attorney Byron Hughes was admit
ted to practice in the United States
court.
The grand jury this forenoon re-
turned four indictments against Jacob
e. Leonard, charging him with render
ing false certificates to the pension
department. He pleaded not guilty
to each, and the case was set for two
o'clock. Leonard is an old man and
an old soldier, and resides ia
Nicollet county. His attorney is
Lorin Cray. This afternoon, the latter
presented two physicians affidavits
concerning the poor health OF the de-
PENDANT, and on these based motion
for the continuance of the case until
the April term. This was granted,
and the defendants bail was cOntinu-
ed at 81, 900, which he has furnished.
Leonard made statement that he
has no means of his own. He some
times spells his name Lehnarts.
The grand jury this afternoon re-
turned an Indictment against j. Sorg,
charging him with having counter
feiting tools and moulds in his posses
sion. The charge in the warrant had
also included that of making coun-
terfeit coin, but the grand jury found
no Indictment for this offense. Sorg
pleaded not guilty to the Indictment,
and his attorney, Byron Hughes, de-
sired an immediate trial. This was
opposed by District Attorney Stringer,
who moved that the case becontinued
until the April term of court, stating
that very material witness against
Sorg could not be produced at this
time. He evidently referred to Geo.
E. Ritchie, who yesterday afternoon
was sentenced to serve six months in
the Ramsey county jail for contempt
of court in refusing to testify before
the grand jury against Sorg. The
United States officers believe that
Ritchie will be willing to testify be-
fore the April term.
Judge Lochren granted the motion
for continuance, and continued the
bail at $500, which Sorg has furnished.
A motion by District Attorney
Stringer to continue an Indictment
against Photographer Roberts, Of
lewd picture fame, until the April
term was granted.
The grand jury came in and report
ed that it had no further business and
was discharged.
There being no further business,
Judge Lochren declared court ad-
journed subject to future call.
The court officials returned to St.
Paul on this afternoons train, and the
officers took with them Chimberski
and Richie. The numerous jurors
and witnesses will leave on the first
| trains.
No Indictment was returned against

There are many kinds of cut
glass sold and, to the ordinary
purchaser, one make is as good
as another. The value of the
pieces depends Of course, on
the cutting. If the edges are
sharp, you may depend upon
it that the quality is good.
Among all the makers of cut
glass in the United States but
one firm sells enough to war
rant their having a wareroom
in New York. Every one in
the States knows which firm
that is-Dordnger. In the
large cities, from Boston, south
to Richmond and west to Den
yer, the purchaser puts but one
cut glass question to a salesman,
"Is it Dorfinger's?" The make
is so well known that the name
sells it. Our stock in this line
is entirely from the Dorhinger
factory-other dealers think it
is the best, the buyers think it
the best, then why should not
we? Other makes may be as
good, they are certainly no
better, Cut glass has been
looked upon as essentially a
luxury Of the wealthy class,
but our cut glass at cut prices,
both cut, makes it possible for
the middle class to own pieces
of various sizes and shapes.
We have also q desire to
call your attention to a stock
of silver ware, genuine sterl-
ing, that excels most anything
of the kind ever shown here.
We sell Sterling silver napkin
rings for $3.50.

DELUDED PEOPLE.

Some months ago this paper
gave an account of some hundreds
of French Canadians, intending
emigrants for Brazil, deserving
the steamer at Montreal the very
hour she sailed, under the pres
sure of upbraidings and jeers
from their countrymen on the
wharf. Those who persisted in
their self-exile are now heard
from, ia a special dispatch from
Ottawa printed in the San
Francisco Chronicle. They
suffered severe hardships on arriv-
al in Brazil and are now implor-
ing the Government and their
friends to send them money to
enable them to return home.
Many have died from exposure,
disease and want of food. Sugar
and coffee planters wanted them
to sign contracts for ten years, to
engage in clearing land, and at
the expiration of that period they
would receive for their hire one
half the value of the plantation,
which might turn out worthless.
Ii these people had come to Hawaii
they would have found acceptable
employment, in Il climate where
exposure does not kill, a chance
to settle down independently after
three years, schools to make their
children fit for citizenship-in
short, an ideal existence like that
Of their ancestors in old France,
under their own vines and fig
trees for their families and their
posterity.

BASIS OF ACTION.

Indications are that the line of
policy suggested by the BULLETIN
will have to be followed before
political union can be brought
within reaching distance. Repre-
sentatives of both countries will
require to construct scheme OF
union at Washington, which will
appeal to the reason of the Amer
lean people and be acceptable to
the people of Hawaii. All the
evidence thus far obtained fails to
show that any treaty Of annez0-
ton, which does not comprise the
important details of the position
Hawaii would occupy in the
Union, will command the support
of a majority of the next Congress.
To make the mutual relations I'M
der political union happy, the
compact must be based on we'll
considered and sure foundation.

Hawaiian affairs must be ap-
praised at some news value in the
United States, when the daily
press pays telegraph tolls on wads
of stale history on the subject
from Washington. Padding of
pure invention is also strung out
with rare ingenuity-for instance,
the plan concocted to promote an
nexation by Ministers Cooper and
Hatch at Washington, some days
before Mr.. Cooper had arrived at
the American capital.
