SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1o.-Car-
roll Cook, the attorney, had a strange
experience with burglar at the Native
Sons celebration at Stockton, and the
police authorities consider that they have
a double -barreled joke on the noted
criminal lawyer. Cook arrived in Stock
ton late Tuesday night. He retired to
his room in lodging-house opposite the
Yosemite hotel about 2:30 a. m. and Sc
curely locked the door. Before retiring
he put "a purse containing 5000, his vest
containing his gold watch and chain and
his 5000 diamond badge under his pill
low. His trousers, containing nearly $25
in change, several pocket pieces and a
pocketboolz, in which there were some
notes and other valuable papers, he
hung up in the room.
When he awoke in the morning he
found that the door of his room was
ajar. On looking about the room Cook
saw his trousers lying on the floor near
the door. He sprang up and found that
everything in the pockets Of the trousers
had been taken, pocketbook and ALL
After having reported the matter to the
police, Cook was informed that the post
master wanted to see him, and on call
ing at the postoffice found that his pock-
etbook had been dropped into the mail,
with it's contents intact, together with
the loose change, amounting to about
SIS, which had been abstracted from his
pockets.

flr. Magce Concludes He Can't Support
the Chicago Platform

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 10.-The DEM
ocratic state central committee today
accepted the designations of Sterling r.
Holt, chairman Of the state central COM
mittee, and Rufus Magee, member from
Cass county. The silver delegates say
no other designations are expected.
The letter of Chairman Holt was as
follows: II have reached the conclu-
sion that 1t is my duty to pursue this
course. I was chosen to the position
now resign about eight months ago
Since the adjournment of the Chicago
convention I have been the subject of
unjust criticism and uncalled-for suspi-
cion. Nor has this criticism and suspi-
cion been confined to me, but it has been
extended to all the members of the COM
mittee and of the executive committee
who heretofore have opposed the free
coinage of silver. This unremitting
fault-finding has so Handicapped and
crippled the committee as almost to dis
qualify it from doing efficient work.
Personally, during my whole political
career I have been opposed to the doc
trine involved in the free coinage of sill
VIZ; yet did not see in this fact q suiii-
cient reason for quitting the regular or
ganization of the party, and 1 have so
stated; I, nevertheless, in view of the
condition of affairs I have above indi-
Gated, feel that owe it to myself as a
man and to you as a committee to step
down and out"
Mr.. Holt also read the resignation of
Rufus Magee. Mr.. Magee simply stated
that he could not bring himself to the
support of the principles enunciated by
the Chicago platform and deemed it
prudent to resign as member of the

WHAT WATSON WANTS
PopuIists Urged to Stand by the st. Louis
Ticket

Ticket
ERIE, Kan, Sept. 10.-Hon Thomas
Z. Watson, candidate for vice president
on the Populist ticket, was the central
figure at the county fair here today. Mr..
Watson was accompanied by III. w.
Reed, Populist national committeeman,
who, 1t is said, is here to talk to the anti
Populist managers and make more reas-
enable terms for Watson's chances in
Kansas.
About 1000 people, mostly farmers,
greeted Mr.. Watson when he began his
speech. The speaker said that the work
begun six years ago had not been accom-
plished; instead, the situation was
worse. The south and the west then, he
said, made written contract to agitate
the tax question, and he asked that the
west fulfill it's contract and stand by the
south. The time for the death of the
Populist party had not yet arrived. he
said, and continued, For Gods sake,
do not desert the Peoples party now,
when the great work has just begun"
Getting to his nomination for vice pres
ident, Mr.. Watson said, among other
things:
II am not seeking to be taken on the
Democratic ticket. I am no political
beggar. Nor is my party. The Demo-
Gratis and Populists ought to unite. The
ticket ought to be the st. Louis ticket
Bryan, the Democrat, and Watson, the
Populist Amt that right? (Cries of
That's right; that's right.") say that
it is no surrender; it is fair compro-
mise.
Turn me down and you lose Texas,
Tennessee and Kentucky. To elect
Bryan the Peoples party nominee for
vice president must stay on the ticket,

A Profitable Industry.

We make a great mistake when
we despise small things. We lose
time, labor and money reaching out
after the big prizes, when we could
make a fortune by turning our at
tention to the small affairs Of life.
The New York World calls atten-
tion to the fact that our hens con
tribute yearly over $l35, 600, 600 to
the wealth of the country. They
have caused the rise and growth OF
that worthy class, the chicken
farmers. As our contemporary well
says, no chicken farmer ever led a
riot. Few of them have gone to the
gallows and very few have been sent
to Jail. They are as a class as quiet,
peaceful and contented as their
hens.
The demand for chickens and eggs
is practically unlimited. They are
products which will stand shipping
long distances, and they are articl s
of universal consumption. Here in
the South we are paying altogether
too little attention to this money
industry.

A Disastrous Failure

Financial commissions which dis
turb the equilibrium of the busi-
ness world are productive of far
less mischief than the failure of
the kidneys to perform the offices
assigned to them by nature. When
these organs becoms inactive the
circulation acquires impurities
which bring on dropsy, diabetes,
Brghts disease, gravel, catarrh Of
the bladder and other maladies. To
impart to the kidneys and bladder a
healthful impetus, very different
from the excitement produced by
an unmedicated alcoholic stimulant,
use Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
the finest diuretic IN existence.
This excellent remedy for inactivity
of the kidneys is also of the great
est service in maIarial, dyspeptic,
bilious and rheumatic troubles, and
has received the unqualified sane
tion of eminent physicians. The
nervous, the elderly and infrm and
convalescents derive unspeakable
benefit from its use. Use it with
persistence and at fixed intervals,
and anticipate with confidence the
happieSt results.
