What Is
PURIFINE?

1t is the new disinfectant which
has superseded all other disinfect-
ants, being a scientific compound,
having no odor, yet possessing the
qualities of powerful disinfectant.
The automatic distributor should
be placed in every house in Homo
lulu where doors and germs of dis
ease exist. They are placed free
of charge, taken care of and kept
working day and night for $1.0O
per month. It's an innovation, but
on scientific principles, and ap-
peals to everyone of common sense.
The idea is this: The distributor
drops two drops minute, day and
night. Foul doors are killed, yet
no disagreeable smell Of carbolic
acid or crude disinfectants takes
its place. You don't know that
powerful disinfectant is being used
if you judge by the lack of odor.
But it's doing the duty-doing it
well. Can w show you the Ideal
Automatic Distributor" Our Mr.

CHICAGO. July 9.-Mr. Richardson pre-
sided at the morning session and the long
lank Tennesseean acquitted himself excel
lently. During the reading of the platform
by Field Marshal Jones, which reading de-
veloped the fact. by-the-way. that the size
of girth bears no necessary relation to the
strength of lungs, Mr.. Richardson choked
off one of those indiscreet enthusiasts who
disturb every convention. A man came

was disposition TO applaud. but Mr. Rich

CHICAGO. July 9.-As early as noon to-

that their candidate was defeated, unless
some very unexpected turn should be taken
by the convention. They had made their
canvass on a theory that events had not

that I'm the matter of taking an extreme

THE PRESIDENT REPUDIATED.
The silver Senators leaned back COM
placently in their chairs when Mr.. Hill
called for the next resolution. which in
dorsed the courage and integrity OF the
Democratic administration They had sue
ceeded in compelling their own people to
treat the administration with respect. out
If Mr.. Hill chose TO subject Mr.. Cleveland
to public humiliation by the convention
the result could surely not be laid at their
door. In every delegation there was a chal-
lenge of the vote il the delegation con-
tanned an administration man TO demand a
poll. The administration men in the Mich
igan delegation this time succeeded in hav
ing the 2s votes of the delegation thrown
in favor of the resolution indorsing Mr..
Cleveland. Altogether it was perhaps the
most remarkable spectacle ever witnessed
in any national convention-the delegates
voting yea or nay on the proposition to ac-
knowledge the integrity and honesty OF the
administration Of its own party and then
denying lnat lDuOrSenenI Dy an over
whelming majority. The vote stood 564
nays to 357 yeas. The Democratic conven-
ton thus repudiating it's own President
by a majority of 207. The resolution
providing that in the event OF the passage
of a free-coinage law existing contracts
should not be impaired was ofscourse voted
down without the formality of roll call.
The reputation of existing Indebtedness is
in so overwhelming a degree the kernel OF
the whole free-silver movement that TO
have adopted the resolution would in effect
have made nugatory all the success that
the silver men HOPE to attain. Then. after
Mr.. Tfllman had Withdrawn his resolution

said, the failure of the resolution indorsing
the administration was in effect censure

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 5.-The excite

fight has abated, ana even popular interest
in the final disposition of the $4,000 purse
Is waning. Sharkey is stil in bed and re-
ccives visitors in room filled with flowers,
the gifts of admiring female friends. He
confidently expects to receive the purse
soon, although neither SiHc made any move
today. Fit2simmons says he will remain
mere only until the suit for the purse Is de-
termined and that he will thereafter be at
Dan Stuarts disposal.
Fitzsimmons was occupied today in de-
Tending the suit brought against him by
Jimmy Carroll his former trainer, for $500,
alleged to be due for training services.
The story Is now current in sporting cir
Giles that FltZsimmons has done pretty well
with his fight venture even If he receives no
part of the purse. Most of the money wag-
cred on the fight was placed on the question
of Sharkeys ability to stay six rounds 1t

Valuable Property Belonging to the
Late Mrs. Bessie Marcou.
NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-The World tomor-
row will publish the following: Bryan
Hughes a wealthy paper box manufacturer,
has written letter to the public admin
istrator in which he states he has found
in an old desk which he purchased at a
public auction in November 1895 a guam
tity of valuable jewelry and many thousand
dollars worth Of bonds, stocks, deeds to
real estate and other valuables. Among
the papers found was a receipt made out
in the name of Mrs. j. b. Marcou. The
vauables were found in a secret cOmpart-
ment. and in the list he furnishes are the
following: One hundred shares of Western
Union Telegraph company stock, par value,
so 900; 1876 shares of the Panama Trading
and Developing company, par value 500. 600;
$500 shares of the American Ice Machine
company. par value $25O,OOO; three per
cent gold bonds of the Seal Falls Stock
Yards company par value, $4,000; 1000
shares of the Chirigui Trading company, par
value $1,000; deeds for 500 acres of land
in Lawrence county, Kentucky; deeds for
5000 acres of land in Lawrence county
Kentucky; deeds for 1000 acres of land in
Long Sandy creek, Kentucky. All bore
dates from 1890 up. Investigation showed
that the Mrs Marcou referred to was Mrs.
Bessie MarcOu, whose death from suicide by
morphine in September 1895, created a
great sensation, the autopsy showing l1S
grains of the drug in her stomach and her
body showing many bruises. This Mrs, Bes-
sic MarcOu was in New Orleans fifteen
years ago. There she was Bessie DOland,
as reckless as she was beautiful. She
drifted to Washington, and eventually fell
in love with John Belltnap Marcou, son of
Prof. julius MarCou of Cambridge Mass.
Three years ago they separated, the young
woman going to ruin.
