The Republican nominees for pre- cinct officers this year are all men of unusual capabilities. Judge c. w. Johnstone has made the best justice of the peace that this precinct has ever had His decisions are just and digni- fled and have won him the respect of all. He will be reelected by an in creased majority. The other candidate for justice of the peace, G. D. Gray, will make a worthy colleague for Judge Johnstone. MT. Gray has been an in vestor in this territory for twenty years and has long been resident and taxpayer. He is just and capable man and would dignify the office that his party has chosen him to fill. The candidate for constables, Sam Bayley and A. J. Porterie, are brave and trust worthy officers. Mr. Bayley was elect. ed two years ago by a good majority and has given excellent satisfaction
 His friends will see to it that he i. reelected. As a deputy, MT. Porterit
 has proven many times that he pos
 sesses the qualifications necessary il

Mr. Bryan and could at once make tour together, and inside of ten days we might restore tens of thousands of votes" He hastens to make it plain that he does not intend to get off him self, by declaring: "I'd lay my head on the block before I'd retire from the race to make way for a plutocrat, a
 bondlholder, a National banker and a protectionist like MT Sewall" Sewall is the only one of the triangular com bination that has risen in general re- spect since their nomination. He hasn't been saying a word.

POOR, HE GETS A FORTUNE.
Trolley Car Conductor Inherits s19,OOO
 in Cash.

ARLINGTON, N. J., Oct. 8.-From the back platform of a trolley car to the possession of $19,000 in cash is the pleasant experience James Doughty, of Devon street, Arlington, has met with during the past week The money was received as an inheritance from an uncle living in western Illinois, whom the eX-conductor had not seen in if teen years.
 Doughty is about 2S years old, is unmarried and we'll educated. He is a fine looking, manly fellow, and his friends rejoice in his good fortune. Three years ago he left his home in Canandaigua county, New York, where his parents are we'll known and we'll to-do people, to seek living else where. He visited New York, where he remained for the few months his money held out, and then decided to support himself by railroading. He secured a position as trolley conductor and during the summer was on one oi the United States revenue cutters in New York harbor.
 Doughty is now visiting his grand father in Yonkers, another wealthy man, whose fortune he is likely to in. herit some day.

Prospects of Republican success in! the far west are growing brighter every day. Should public sentiment continue to grow Republicanwards until election and there is every reason to believe that it will, the Republican ticket in Maricopa county will be easily elected and Doran will carry the banner county as we'll. All signs point to this and no one knows it better than the enemy, as indicated by their unusual activity to stem the tide.
 From California there also comes cheering news. The great demonstra- tions with which Congressman Butter worth has been received throughout that state during his recent speech making tour, no longer leaves any doubt as to where the people of the Golden state stand.

A DOUBLE MURDER.

PARIS, Tex, Oct 8-A dastardly murder was committed about five miles east of Pecan Gap in Delta county yes terday morning. David Knowles, an aged and well-to-do citizen, was living on his farm with his widowed daugh- ter. About 1 o'clock the door was broken open and Knowles was crushed with an ax The assassin then struck his daughter, but she awakened with a scream which aroused her 8-year-old son, who saw two men run out at the door, The motive was evidently mur- der and robbery. Knowles the even ing before displayed a sum of money. The murderers obtained no money however, as it was all found in his pocket.

CARPETS WERE UNKNOWN.

How the Fourteenth Century Mansions
 Were Furnished.
 Carpets in the fourteenth century were unknown luxuries, says Good Words, but the fashion of strewing the apart ments with rushes was being gradually abandoned. Bushes were still used in the retainers' hall, but for the better rooms sweet-scented herbs and fragrant twigs were usually employed.
 In the fourteenth century windows were apertures filled with glass so as to admit light, but to exclude wind. The walls also were frequently hung with cloth or tapestry to protect the inmates of the room from the many currents of air that penetrated the strong but bad ly built walls. We learn from various ancient documents that it was the duty of the serving men and pages to sweep out the principal apartments, but as the use of water is rarely mentioned, damp and fragrant leaves and twigs must have aided not only in collecting the dust, but also toward refreshing the att mosphere in such costantly closed rooms, fresh air being only admitted through the doors opening on to the battlements or balconies.
 From old inventories at Thurleigh and elsewhere we ascertain how scant- 1 fly furnished were these ancient man. sions, although they seem to have been abundantly supplied with fagons and HrIn nlyin in engraved pewter, besides an infinite number of black jacks or cups made ot | leather.

Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not a patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums. It is here on its merite."

 MT. T. B. Wiley, 146 Chambers St., New York City, says that Ayers Sar- saparilla cured him of a dry and scaly lhumor, from which he had suffered in tolerably. He adds: q have not now a blemish on my body, and my cure is wholly due to Ayers Sarsaparilla."
 Constipation is usually habit of the body induced by prolonged inattention ito the calls of mature. It is a condi- l tion so perilous to the general heakh, that it should be relieved as speedily, | but judiciously, as possible. People who have allowed themselves to be- come costive. and irregular usually try to remedy the evil by the use of violent purgatives, and the result is that the bowels become weakened and the dis order all the more difficult of cure. The medicine best calculated to pro- duce natural movement and at the same time to strengthen the bowels, is Ayers Pills. When taken according to directions, the result is always bene- ficial. A few doses gently stimulate the bowels to healthy action, restore their lost tone, and promote easy evac- nations. No other pill so we'll supplies the demand of the general public for safe, certain, and agreeable family medicine. Physicians recommend them. They received the highest awards of the Chicago Worlds Fair Commissioners.

CANNOT HOLD BLACKBURN
Judge Fawcett Releases Him on Writ of
Habeas Corpus.
COMMITMENT PAPERS ARE INSUFFICIENT
Judge Incidentally states that He
Does Not Think the Notaries
Have Power to Compel Wit
ncsscs to Testify.

The habeas corpus case of I. W. Blackburn
was called yesterday afternoon in Judge
Fawcetts court. Mr. Blackburn had been
committed to the county Jail for contempt
by Notary Patti for refusing to answer
question put to him in the contest proceed
ings now in progress for seats in the state
legislature. w. II. Herdman appeared and
asked to intervene in behalf of the contest
ing claimants for seats in the legislature
The Judge knocked out his asperations with
very little ceremony, holding that the pres
ent one was not an action in which an in
tervening petition could be entertained.
The attorney for Mr.. Blackburn raised the
point that the commitment on
which his client was held was
insufficient and after the ques-
tion had been argued at considerable length
Judge Fawcett held that the point was well
taken. The commitment simply commanded
the officer to take and hold Mr.. Blackburn
until such time as he should be released by
due process of law. The judge held that the
terms of the commitment were too indefinite
Incidentally Judge FawCett stated that
while what he said did not have the binding
force OF judicial decision, the point was
not up before him for adjudication, he was
of the opinion that the nOtaries did not have
the power to compel witnesses to answer any
questions put to them or to punish them for
refusing so to do. The provision of the
statute which conferred upon the courts and
upon notaries acting under orders of the
court the power to summon witnesses and
compel them to testify was specific and re-
ferrCd to specific conditions under which the
power was vested in them. The section which
empowered nOtaries to hear evidence in
contest cases was lacking in the provision
giving them power to compel the attendance
of witnesses and to force them to testify
nd : nY,tin np hat hn lou
making power did not intend that they
should have such authority or it would have
been specifically conferred upon them as in
the other instances
At the conclusion of the hearing Judge
Fawcett entered an order for the discharge
of MIR. Blackburn from custody.

ONE OF THE BEST FEATURES
or the Pyramid Pile Cure.

Is the fact that it cures every form Of
sirable point is not obtained by the use OF
injurious opiateswhich simply deaden and
paralyze the nerves of the parts and make
matters worse in the long run. But 1t Is
done solely by it's remarkable healing and
soothing effects.
And while 1t thus gives immediate relief,
at the same time the disease is not merely
checked. but a radical cure Is rapidly ac-
complished.
And the point we want to make clear is
that all this is done without particle of
pain.
This fact is one reason for the great pop
ularity OF the Pyramid Pile Cure and consti-
tutes one very great difference between it
and almost any other kind of treatment for
piles.
, Every kind OF surgical operation for piles
is excrutatingly painful besides endangering
the life OF the patient, and In most cases is
not to be compared with the Pyramid Cure.

pain nor in cheapness and safety

nized by too many people to allow II To be
