The evening times., 1896-10-06

The sad case Of Mrs. De We're, who was
killed in New York late one night through
an accident caused by Ter effort to escape
the forced attentions of a Contemplate
male rider, calls up the question as to what
extent it is proper for 4 woman to ride
without an escort.
Many respectable women are in the habit
of riding alone at night on streets and roads
where none of them would have the hard-
hood TO walk alone except in broad day
light. The rapidly moving bicycle is in
itself refuge from the insults Of corner
loafers and tie rider is fairly wei protected
from all acts Of street idIers unless a spc-
cialattemptis made oobstrGct her progress.
But undoubtedly the fascination of cycling
has led many solitary women who have no
time for paStimc except I'm tie evening hours
TO underestimate - propriety OF riding
unattended after dark. From a point II
view only reasonably conservative, such
riding indicates at least extreme hardiho0d.
The woman who thus ventures form uu
the streets uf a large city cannot -, ap,
being assaiIed with rilaId spe., h and -
always liable tu be haras>ed ~ men win
may behave themselves well enough in
iAAf heh NiNiifs hAA NflANaAAfN VIZ laaN NAAslN
she Is alune after nightfau sufficient
license L. address her. Her wheel may ru-
able her t. escape close contact with low
fellows Of this clasS, but II cannot prevent
her from hearing things said that she
should not hear.
No woman should venture alone On a
wheel where she would not walk uuat-
tended at the same hour. No doubt many
women riders Will consider this way Of
Looking at the matter uver-cautiOus and
unncces sary. but 1T Cannot he denied that
by going alone she incurs a certain amount
uf risk that she should not be subjected to.
San Francisco whecimen are out for
woman soffrage. and there seems to lie
small sentiment, bot great deal of prdc-
tiCability In their view of the question.
They have abandoned theories for the pur-
pose OF meeting a condition. Their posi-
tioD is that there are 5000 women cyclists
in san Francisco, all OF whom earnestly
desire good, smooth streets. The women.
of course, have no votes, so all they can do
is to lend their moral influence 10 the
campaign for better Toadways. Their
moral influence Is great. but Truth compels
the .tdmissioD that votes are more effective
than moral influence when politics is be-
Ing done. So the wheelmen are support
ing woman suffrage in order that their
female colleagues ma y join them by and by
in putting into office candidates who are
pledged to good roads and can be relied
upon keeping their pledges, and in keeping
out Of office candidates who will not COM
nit themselves to a proper course or who
cannot be depended upon for other reasons.

 The Catholic Total Abstinence union of Connecticut will hold it's annual convention in Winsted on Tuesday in the opera house of that town.
 It is expected that much business of importance will be transacted, part of which will be the proposition to expel from the union the Sacred Heart T. A. B. society of this city, which is now at 1oggerheads with the clerical authori- ties.
 Prominent speakers will appear at the rally which will be held in the evening, among them J. Washington Logue of Philadelphia.
 There appears to be no opposition against the reelection of the present board of officers, and certainly none none against the reelection of the Rev. J. H. Winters, the president, now of Norwalk, but formerly pastor of the Mt. Carmel Catholic church.
 The delegates representing the St. Aloysius T. A. and B. society of this city are the following: James F. Bren- nan, John H. Cummings B. B. Lynch, John H. Mealia, Thomas F. Maegher Daniel Brennan, James F. Guncheon and John H. Flanagan.

GET WELL AND STAY WELL.
Get Rid of What Makes You Sick and
 Stay Rid of It.

 It is so simple to be well that we wonder why there are so many sick people.
 Come to think about 1t, must be be- cause they don't know what made them sick.
 If they knew that, they could pre- vent it, and when they were sick, in some cases, cure themselves. But, so long as we don't take more care of our health, we shall always be more or less sick.
 The simple rules of health are :: Keep olean,s take exercise, eat good food SCOUT out your stomach. This last means Don't tolerate in digestion Cure it with Shaker Digest i've Cordial A stomach full of undi- gested fermented, putrid food Is the unhealthiest thing you can think of. Half our diseases and troubles come from the polsons of undigested food. More than half of them could be cured with Shaker Digestive Cordial, More than half, because often when We think we are sick we are only weak, and course of nourishing food digest ed without effort by the stomach (with the aid of Shaker Digestive CordiaD would reinvigorate the whole system and make us well. A ten cent trial bottle will prove it. At druggists.

The Popocrats Have Sent German to
 Talk to the Senator.
 New York, Aug. 1S.-It was announc- ed to-day by one of the few popocrats left over in the city from last week that Senator German has been commits stoned by the popocratic national com mittee to see Senator Hill and try to induce him to come out for the Chicago ticket and make some speeches in the campaign.
 Senator German is now in Saratoga, and will remain there until some time in September. It is said he will call on Senator Hill at Albany in a few days and have talk with him about the campaign Senator Jones, chairman of the popocratic national committee. tried to induce Senator Hill to come out for the ticket and preside at the notifi- cation meeting, but failed in the att tempt In spite of their pretended in- difference to New York and the leading democrats of the state, it Is evident that the popocrats are very anxious to know what Senator Hill is going to do. They would rather have his aid than that of any other man in this country. Senator German has a general polit- ical commission to see as many demo- cratic leaders as possible while at Sar- atoga and try to organize some sup port for the Chicago ticket in this state
 The managers of the Bryan campaign are doing all they can to break up the Sinjun windmill in the Bartholdi hotel. They say that the performances there have hurt the ticket in this city and state, and they refuse to recognize the place in any way.

She ought to know that nothing can make her so miser- able, or so useless in the world as disease and weakness of the organs distinctly femi- nine. She ought to know that this disease and weakness can be prevented and can be cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. There are three times in woman's life when this great remedy reaches its best usefulness-when the girl becomes woman when the woman becomes mother-and when the capacity for mother hood ceases. At these times the import ance of a perfectly healthy condition of her system is of the greatest importance "The Favorite Prescription " is a purifying, cura- tive, tonic, which works directly on one set of organs, and on no other. It cures when doctors fail, and 1t cures without the hurpiliating examinations and local treatment, so invariably insisted upon by physicians.
