Paine's Celery Compound is far in adj

these forebodings of approaching disease
disappear with the profound nourishing
that Paine's Celery Compound always
provides throughout the body, even to
the minutest nerve filaments and blood

David Hirrsch. the well-known Broad

follows to Wells, Richardson & Co:

After taking two bottles of Paine's

forget the effects of Paine's Celery Com

state that | am now past 6S years of

With the return of cool weather hosts
OF men and women who relied on their
summer vacation to make them strong
and well came home still tired, with
poor appetites and depressed by the
thought Of the months of hard work
ahead.
Their overweight nerves and bodies
to-day demand something more than a
mere rest. Their blood needs to be swept
of its impurities and the entire nervous
organization reinforced and built up
by genuine invigorator before good APP
petite will wait on digestion and health
on both.
The bracing weather Of November,
with facilitating summer past, and the
severity of winter not yet arrived, is the
very best time for recruiting the strength
and getting rid of disease Contrast

and women getting along in years find
remarkable increase in yigor and

Don't NOPE along and submit to indi-

aches or rheumatism. Paine's Celery
Compound will make you strong and keep
you so. It's nourishing, matchmaking
virtues have been so carefully considered,
and so exactly fitted to the needs of the
tired, exhausted body, that it's work

One Of the leading Populists in Rich

the election that two years from now
the Democrats and Populists would be

Wonder what the Populists OF Spring

of fusion now? Are they satisfied with
two negro magistrates and a negro con-

better. The color line must be drawn,

Don't let anyone persuade you to take
anything else instead of Simmons Liver
Regulator. Some merchants will try to do
this but not for your good. They do it to
make little more profit on something
which is OF an inferior quality, though
you must pay just as much for the bad
as for the good. Be sure to take Simmons
Liver Regulator, and nothing else. Look
for the Red 2 on every package.

r, & O. FINANCIAL HISTORY.

Baltimore, Nov. 3.-The Mercantile
Trust company has fled in the United
States court an answer to the suit OF
the John Hopkins University against
the receivers of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad and others, to recover
six per cent dividends on preferred
stock fthe Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road company, held by the university.
The answer is very bulky, covering
100 typewriter pages. 1t gives a
full financial story of the Baltimore
and Ohio's operations from the time
of its charter in 1926 to the present
time.
1t claims that the university is not
entitled to the dividends on its pre-
ferred stock, until the outstanding OBJ
legations of the company are paid. 1t
asserts that the act of 1885, under
which the state holding Of preferred
stock was issued, did not take from
the hands of the officers Of the COM
pany the power to pledge the property
of the company when such became ne
cessary in the conduct of its business.
Such property was actually pledged
or merged, and until these claims are
satisfied the stock held by John Hop
kins University cannot receive pref
erence in the payment of dividends.
Particular stress is laid on the fact
that here are no profits out of which
to pay dividends.

RATHER FISHY,
THIS STORY OF THE CAPTURE OF A
HERMAN.
The Remarkable Freak Is, Of Course, An
Englishman's Oapture-Full De-
scriptlon of the Creature.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. ga party of
Englishmen who have been pOrpoise
fishing in the Pacific discovered and
killed a monster that resembles a mer-
man.
The party was off the island of
Wamoff in the hunting boat, and Lord
Devonshire, one of the fishers, had
Just shot a pOrpoise when some one
called out Look there" pointing to a
frightful looking monster about ca
BILE length away. Hastily raising his
weapon, he fired and hit the creature
between the eyes. The shot, though
it did not kill, so stunned the creature
that it lay perfectly still on the SUI
face of the sea. 1t showed fight when
hauled into the boat and had to be
killed to prevent it from swapping
the craft.
The monster is said to be one of the
strangest freaks ever put together. 1t
measures ten feet from its nose to the
end of it's fluke shaped tail and the
girth of it's human shaped body was
just six feet. 1t would weigh close
to 500 pounds. From about the breast
bone to n point about where the base
of the stomach would be were it hu-
man, it looked like a man. Its arms.
quite human in shape and form, are
very long and covered completely with
long, coarse, dark reddish hair as is
the whole body. 1t had, or did have
at one time four fingers and thumb
on each hand. almost human in shape,
except that in place of finger nails,
there were long slender claws. But
in days probably long since gone by,
it had evidently fought some monster
that had got the best of it, for the
forefngef of the right hand. the lit
tie finger of the left and the left
thumb are missing entirely.
Immediately under the right breast
is a broad ugly looking scar which
looked as if some time in the past it
had been inflicted by n swordfish.
The creature is now being preserv-
ed in ice at Seattle and will be ship
ped to the British museum.

APPROVED HIS ACTS.
PRESIDENT ZELAYA, OF NICARA-
qua, Is ALL RIGHT.
The Constitution Amending Committee
Think So Anyway, and Declare His
Term Extended to 1908.

Managua, Nicaragua, Nov. 3.-Spec-
ial correspondence of the Associated
Press.-The constitution amending as
sembly, which closed today approved
the contract between the English
bondholders and Nicaragua's railway
bonds of 1856. BY it's terms Nicara-
qua agrees to impose an export tax
of one cent gold, pound on coffee
exported, to be paid as collected to an
agent 'of the bondholders who is to
reside in Nicaragua, at the expense
of the country, to pay the annual four
per cent interest and one per cent
sinking or redemption fund agreed up
on. The debt, principal and unpaid
interest, is put at S1,600,000 gold.
The bondholders got clause permit
ting the sale of the railroad and Ma
tional steamboat line for $1,000,000
gold with the intention of extending
the rOda from Corinto on the Pacific,
to Bluefields or Monkey Point on the
Caribbean Sea, with a cable to Cape
Gracias and thence to Jamaica, thus
placing the British in control of an
easy grade excellent interocean route
across Nicaragua and of the best nat
ural harbors for ocean steamships in
Central America.
The assembly approved all acts Of
President Zelaya to date, and author
lied the execution Of the death penal
ty on persons charged with attempt
ing to overthrow the present govern
ment.
By invitation of the assembly, Pres
ident Zelaya, and number Of native
and foreign officials crossed Lake
Nicaragua, Oct. 10, to Motombo, to
attend a ball and proclaim the decree
declaring the term of President Ze-
lava extended until 1908.

NJ KINLEY VOTED.
It Was Straight Republican XII The
Way Through.

Canton, Ohio, Nov. 3.-Major Nc
Kinley cast his vote at nine o'clock
this morning. 1t was straight Re-
publican from top to bottom.
All Canton was astir at an early
hour today, for the elimination Of a
struggle in which it figured so promi-
nently. Bands and marching clubs
were on the streets by six o'clock this
morning. and voters began to cast
their ballots early. 1t was an ideal
fall day, cool and balmy with a haze
Of Indian summer in the air. AS
Major Mckinley came from his break
fast to his library he spoke Of the
glorious weather and its influence in
bringing out a full vote. He read
with interest the Associated Press bull
letins from all sections, showing the
weather genraIly clear and that a
heavy vote was being polled early in
the day. This last feature he COM
mented on with satisfaction, adding
that it was amazing that such heavy
per cent of the vote could be in by
nine o'clock, as reports indicated.
Then he sat down to his desk to run
through the heap of kilograms which
had already begun to come In.
