NERVOUS
DYSPEPSIA.
TO Cure Nervous Dyspepsia to Gain FleS to Sleep Well
to Know What Appetite and Good Digestion Mean,
Make Test of StuartS Dyspepsia Tablets.
INTERESTING EXPERIENCE OF AN INDIANAPOLIS GENTLEMAN

No trouble is more common or more mis-
understood than nervous dyspepsia. People
having it think that their nerves are to blame
and are surprised that they are not cured by
nerve medicines and spring remedies; the
real seat of the mischief is lost sight of; the
stomach it the organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any
pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
any of the usual symptoms of stomach weak
ness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not in
the stomach so much as in nearly every other
organ; in some cases the heart palpitates and
is irregular; in others the kidneys are
affected; in others the bowels are constipated
with headaches; still others are troubled
with loss of flesh and appetite with accumu-
lations of gas, sour risings and heartburn
Mr. A. w. Sharper of No 81 Prospect St.,
indianapolis Ind writes as follows; "a
motive Of pure gratitude prompts me to
write these few lines regarding the new and
valuable medicine stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets. l have been a sufferer from nervous
dyspepsia for the last four years. have used

81 RELIEVE, says eX-President Harrison,
in speaking Of the Indiana platform, that
the expression ON the subject of gold and
silver should be explicitly in favor Of the
gold standard, The issue between the parties
will be the money question and not the tariff,
and this platform cannot be too conservative
on the latter or too radical on the former"
This is the sort of talk that wins support for
a candidate and strengthens confidence in the
party. The Republican masses everywhere
and Republican leaders, with few exceptions,
admire directness Of speech and a political
courage that never falters, even when its
possessor is seeking votes. General Harrison
may not be an aspirant for the st. Louis
nomination, but he must continue to be q
Presidential possibility until the choice o
that body falls upon somebody else,

Absent-Minded.
)WABD EDMONDS, long con-

A good story is told on young man living
in the west end of town. Itseems the young
man visits a young lady at Brownsville
frequently of evenings, On one of his
recent visits the weather was rather pleasant
when he went but about the hour for leaving
it was raining cats and dogs" As it gave
no sign of letting up soon, the young lady
invited him to stay all night as brother Jack
was off fishing and he could have his room,
and to carry out her hospitable intent went
to prepare it for occupancy. When she came
down TO the parlor again she was surprised
to find Charley missing, but he came in about
ten minutes later dripping wet, with a bundle
in his hand and gave the explanation that he
happened to remember that he didn't have
his night shirt and ran home for it.

Robbed by Italian Highwaymen.

ROME May 6,-While the Duke and
Duchess of Saxe-Meiningen were travel
ing inc1gnito in Italy recently their car
riaSe was stopped near Frascad by two
'ked men, who levelled guns at them
ana demanded money. The duke threw
the h'ghwaymen his purse which only
contained tifty-fye lire (about s1l), and
the carriage was allowed to proceed. When
Le arrived here the duke notified the po-
lice authorities, and a detachment of gen
darmys was seat to the scene. They found
the Two men in a tavern drinking, and
captured them without difficulty.

for Mckinley by Grosyenor aud ITanna-the
latter even piiing up the extraordinary total
OF sos for his lavorite; but it must be remem-
berod that not one-half Of the whole number
of delegates are pledged to Mckinley and
Reed together and over one-uinth of the
seats will be contested Besides, the anti
Mckinley men are positively opposed to his
nomination, while the advertised Mckinley
delegates are not all solid, by amy means.
The next fortnight may materially change
the complexion Of things, but at present it
looks as though the field would win.
The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1896-05-06

IT is now Mckinley against the field
in fact as well as in theory, and The North
American believes that the field has the
better chance to win The Mckinley tide is
running at good pace, but the opposition
current is stronger than it seems. The st.
Louis convention will have 900 delegates at
least, and probably more. The Territories
of Arizona and Oklahoma will likely be
allowed four votes each, and an additional
vote may be given to Indian Territory. This
would make total of 91s-requiring 46O
votes to nominate. Up to yesterday 40 dele
gates were chos,n, Of which 12O are admit
edly contested ssais. VIA claims are made

SCHOOL sUPERINTENDENTs.


The School Directors Of the respective
districts throughout the county in accord
ance with the law upon the subject assembled
yesterday and elected superintendentsf for the
boroughs and townships in Schuylllill. The
position is an important one and it needs no
argument TO prove that none but the best
men should be placed in this most honorable
and responsible position. State Superinten-
dent n c. Schaetler very wisely says: 1T is
obligatory upon Directors to look closely into
the personality of the candidates who may
be presented for their sufIrages in
addition to scholarship aud practical mastery
Of the art of teaching, they have the weight
and force of character to dignity and adorn
this high Office and make it respected and
influential in the communities it was created
to serve and whether from all that can be
known, the candidate if elected, will
probably perform his official duties with
judicial frmness and impartiality and with
absolute integrity of purpose"
1t is apparent, from the favorable opinions
expressed by our people, that the action Of
the Shenandoah School Board last evening
meets with general approval There were
seventeen applicants for the position, and
among the number was Superintendent
Whitaker, the present incumbent, VINO re-
ceivod the total Democratic vote of the
Board, five in number On the other hand,
nine of the Republicans voted for c. d.
Bogart, Of Pittsburg, while c. IL. Meyer Of
Port Carbon received the complimentary
vote Of Director David Morgan, a Republican
member, thus securing the election of Prof.
Bogart for term of three years beginning
with Monday June 1st 1896,
AS to the intellectual qualifications of
Prof. Bogart, the documents presented by
that gentleman to the Board extracts of
which appear in this issue, removes all
doubt. 1t is true that good schools make
good children, and intelligent children make
good citizens To obtain this result it is
necessary that instructors are fully competent
for the positions they fill Hence we are of
the opinion that the most important consiG-
Grafton in the elections Of the character that
took place last evening is the Intellectual,
moral and professional qualifications of the
applicant, rather than the mere residence.
Director Conry's point raised as to the quali-
tcatons of the successful applicant is in the
right direction, although there is little room
to doubt, from the papers submitted by
Prof Bogart but that he is fully competent
in all respects Nevertheless, the Board
cannot aim too high the test cannot be too
rigid in satisfying their minds of any doubt
that may exist, Therefore the majority
members Of the Board uequiesed in making
the election contingent upon the presentation
of the necessary proofs of qualifications

DEATH OF COLONEL NORTH.


of ApopleNy.
LONDON. May 6.-Colouel John n. North,
the "nitrato king" expired suddenly yes
terday at the Nitrate company's offices in
the Woolpac5 building The death Of
Colonel North has caused great excite
mont in financial circles, and it also
created a sensation when 1t was announced
in the lobby Of the house of commons
Colonel North attended meeting OF
the Lagunas company at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon and afterwards returned to his
Offices apparently i'm good health He had
a drink with some friends in a saloon sit
uatod in the same building, and then
mounted the stairs TO attend the meeting
of the nitrate railways. Prior to this
meeting Colonel North ate dozen oysters
and drank bottle of stout, both OF which
were sent to him from neighborlng res
taurant. shortly after he complained OF
severe pains, called for brandy and drank
some, but soon collapsed in his chair ana
expired. An inquest is to be held today
The belief is growing that Colonel North
died from n stroke of apoplexy, not heart
disease, as AT first generally believed, ana
that the oysters, stout and drink at the
bar probably were the direct cause of the
attack.
Colonel ]. T. North was a native of
Leeds and owes his notoriety to the ex-
tent of the enormous fortune which he ac-
cumulated by means of successful specu-
lations in nitrate mines in South Amer
lea In 1889 he presented Kirkstall abbey
and its grounds to his native town, and
he also made substantial gifts to the
Leeds inflrmary and the Yorkshire Col
lege of Science. OF late years he has been
prominent on the turf. His fortune is es-
timated at SI0O,0OO.
