IN SILENCE.

Women are the real heroes Of the
world. Thousands on thousands of them
endure the dragging torture of the ills
peculiar to womankind in the silence of
home. They suffer on and ~on-weeks,
months, years. The story of weakness
and torture is written in the drawn
features, in the sallow skin, in the list
less eyes, il the lines Of care and worry
on the face.
Unborn modesty seals their lips. They
prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has
made them believe the only hope OF
relief lies in the exposure of examine
ton and 'f1ocal treatment"
Take ten cases of "fernale weakness"
and in nine of them "local treatment"
is unnecessary, There is no reason why
modest, sensitive women should sub
NIT to it.

MERIDIAN'S SENSATIONS:
4 Judge and District Attorney Dare
todo Their Duty,
And Rout the Blind Tiger From His Lair.
Splendid Precedent Established.

Special to the N. O. Picayunc.
MERIDIAN, MISS, April G.--To-day
was red letter day in the history Of
Meridian. The regular April term OF
the court of Tenth Judicial District be-
gan at o'clock this morning and, as
was expected, something drapped." "
The opening Of the court marked the
beginning of the end OF blind tiger
ism and other species Of crime in this
city, and the end is not far OFF. Court
was called to order at $50 clock, and
thirty minutes after Judge J. w.
Fewell, the brilliant presiding officer
OF the court, had finished his charge to
the membe; of the grand jury every
place in town where the officers had
reason to believe blind tiger' had
its lair had been raided and closed at
the instance of the district attorney.
Those who are accustomed to quench
their thirst for Intoxicating drinks at
these places are dry indeed now.
Judge Fewell. OF this city. and Hon. A.
NJ. Byrd, OF Neshoba, the able district
attorney, were sworn in at o'clock,
and few minutes thereafter court was
called to order, the grand and petit
jurics chosen and Judge Fewell began
his charge to them. The charge was
one of the most clear cut. forcibe ad-
dresses to a jury ever delivered in this
State. -'he judge devoted his atten-
tion mainly to certain kinds OF lawless.
ness prevailing in this city and county
and paid his full respects in most un-
measured terms to those parties en-
gagged in this illegal traffic or intoXi.
eating liquors. He read out number
of names of persons who had obtained
United States revenue license to retail
spirituous and malt liquors in this city
and county. and directed the special
attention of the officers to this class,
stating that while that was not sure
sign that they were in the illegal
traffic OF whiskey, it could be taken as
a fairly good indication to that effect.
The members of the city police force
were in the courtroom. and Judge
Fewell pointed out the law to then,
telling them of their powers ana
adjured them to use these powers
for the suppression Of crime. When
Judge Fewell finished the charge, Dis
trict Attorney Byrd sued out wr.ts OF
attachment warrants against Glite a
number of persons who were possessed
OF United States license, and who
were, to all appearance, engaged in
the sale of beverages that if drank tt
an excess will intoXlcate. The war
rants were sworn out on the prtsump
ton that as they had taken out United
States license they had it for the par
pose of selling intoxicating liquor;
and therefore we're engaged in that
business without license from the
State or county; therefore, they owned
the latter license money. and tht
stock contained in the buildings by
these parties was attached TO secure
this money. Nearly every place at
tached contained various quantities o
intoxicating liquors. and this fact wi

be used to prove the charge againstthe
parties. 1t is novel move to make,
and Mr.. Byrd has been establishing a
precedent that officers living in com
munities infested by the blind tiger
would do well to follow.
These places we're closed up and are
now guarded by special officers. The
only way in which the owners can
possibly get possession OF their
property is to fIc bond in the penalty
| of $1,000 to secure the license money
and all costs incident to the execution
of the writ Of attachment. II is
hardly probable that they will be able
to do this, So their property will re-
main in possession OF the Stale. The
following parties we're arrested and
their places closed up: F.. '. Wad.
die, S. NJ. Walston, Pool q Elerbee,
Morgon Whitman, L. II. Hulse, Sig
Frank, John ODonnell, J. r. Walker,
Ed. Head. NJ. r. Coffee and W. W.
Stroup. They will be tried as early as
possible. The beginning OF court is
the all-absorDing topic OF conversation
on the streets of the city to-day, and
everywhere the better class of citizens
are heard to indorse Judge Fewe}l and
his able assistant, Mr.. BYRD. The
ministers OF the city, irrespective Of
creed or denomination, held meeting
to day and adopted series OF strong
resolutions, indorsing Judge Fewell :

The committee of 10 appointed at the re-

The names of the democratic electoral
candidates, who are to be removed 10

were no. ready to announce the names of
the candidates they will propose.

PLANTS PUNTA GORDA DOCK.
1t Is Said to Be n Fine Thing-HOteI
struck by Lightning.


Punta Gorda, Fla, Sept. 1.-The Plant
system terminal dock at the foot of King
street, is one of the most substantial in
the coNntry Every piece of timber in
the dock is carefully selected then satu-
rated with carbo-lineum-a wood preser-
vative and a preventative Of worms and
bugs. The piling are then encased in
earthen drainage tile two feet in dame
ter. The space between the pile and cas-
ing is filled with sand, and the top seal
ed over with heated mixture of cement
pitch, etc. The dock will be ready for
business, about Oct l. The long freight
dock is to be discontinued and torn down,
and all the freight business transacted
up town.
In many ways the new dock will be of
great benefit to the town.
The Punta Gorda hotel was struck by
lightning during the deuge Saturday
afternoon, striking the flag pole, running
down one of the tower columns and down
the corner of the dining-room wall, doing
but little damage.

odd vessels Designed for speed.


A curious vessel was finished last June.
and lay at a private wharf In Virginia
for some time. She was named the How
ard Cassard and ncknamed tho RAZOR
back" With a length of 222 feet she
had only IS feet beam. Her equilibrium
was maintained by an extremely heavy
keel and some 80 900 pounds of machinery
below the water line
The razor-like sharpness of the boat
gave Il a curious look and II was ex-
pected that when moving through the
water the sharp Prov would cut 1t like
a knife, thus reducing the resistance to
a minimum. The narrowness OF her beam
necessitated some economy in her lnte-
rior arrangements, but this was success
fully overcome by adopting somewhat the
Idea of a sleeping car. But the Howard
Cassard was an experiment that evidently
has not been successful, as the claim OF
the designer 20 cross the ocean In three
fifths of the time now required has as
yet not been fulfilled by his odd craft
Probably one Of the strangest ideas in
marine construction was that Of the man
who proposed placing in the stern OF a
vessel a number OF compressed-air can
mons. These were to be fired one after
the other, the force of the air striking
the water and driving the vessel for
ward. Somewhat similar is the idea Of
another engineer and inventor. II is to
run a series OF hollow pipes through the
entire length Of the 'keel. The pipes are
to receive the water at the bow and carry
II TO the center Of the vessl. where II
is shut Off Then powerful pressure OF
compressed air Is brought into playgand
the separated body of water is shut out
OF the pipe in the stern. the power Of
the contact driving the vessel forward
As the water IS TO be received and dis
charged alternately, there would be no
jerking motion.
