Young Peoples Dance.

On Tuesday evening last about fifty
young people, chaperoned by their moth
ers, met ut the home of Mrs. Ida NJ. Bowie
to enjoy dance. 1t was a lovely sight
to watch these young ladies and gentle
men, either gracefully moving in the dance
or with happy faces, filling the rooms and
piazzas with their merry talk and laughter
which seemed to flow from hearts tuned
to their happiest chords. "All went mer-
ry as marriage bell.
No trouble was spared by the genial
kind hostess, and the writer could but
think, while looking at the happy moving
throng, that Mrs Bowie must have felt
amply repaid for her trouble when she saw
how many happy hearts she had drawn to-

served during the evening.

GladneSS Comes

With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
zeal ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort In
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed So highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that You have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and tn, SYST, m is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

WILL LET PAYNE ALONE.

Chicago, Aug. 2.-The special commit
tee of the trades and labor committee
appointed some time ago to investigate
the charges against ii. G. Payne of Mil
waukcc, regarding his hostility to trades
unions and labor organizations, present
ed its report to that body tonight and
recommended that action be taken. The
report met with vigorous opposition but
was finally adopted.
This action was influenced by the eX-
hibition of II letter purporting to be from
labor leaders in Chicago, but which was
not read and which the officers refused
to make public. 1t is said to have
recommended that the assembly take no
action, as Il decision adverse to Mr.
Payne would jcopardise labor interests
in Milwaukee.
Mr.. Payne, as member of the ma
tiOnal executive committee. has charge
of the republican headquarters in this
city.

Bryan and Scwal notification on the day
| following.
The understanding now is that the two
candidates will be notified at the same
time. as has been done by the democratic
party in the past. Pending the meeting
of the national committee i'll New YORK,
the final disposition of the question of
establishment of permanent headquarters
during the coming campaign is hardly
looked for.
Senator Jones has nothing definite to
say on this subject tonight and expressed
the opinion that the matter will not be
settled until the committee meets.
While Senator Jones is believed to have
about decided upon the formation of the
executive committee, which will have ac-
tive charge of the campaign work, he
is not yet prepared to make public any
names. In this case also he expressed
the opinion that the committee will not
he fully named until the meeting in New
York. He may, however, announce an
individual member or two during his stay
in this city.
Questions bearing on the attitude. of
Mr.. Bryan towards the populist nomlna-
ton and affecting the retention of Mr..
Sewall on the national ticket are those
on which the chairman declines to eX-
press an opinion.
The senator's attention was called 70
the statement in the Atlanta Journal,
made by Hon. w. l.. Peek, who led the
Georgia delegation at the populist con
vcntion. that there was an understand
ing between pOpulsts and democratic
leaders that if the populists would nomi-
nate Bryan for president and southern
populist for vice president that Mr. Sc
wall would retire from the race. Re
gardng this Mr. Jones declared that so
far MS he knew, no arrangement of the
kind was entered into.
The chairman is well satisfied with the
general situation and says the demo
cratic ticket is as good as can he. He
ridiculcs the idea of reaction in the
silver sentiment and looks for its con-
tnucd progress.
This sentiment" he said began with
the repeal of the Sherman act and has
progressed ever since"

ment they became convinced that he had
run up white flag to the enemy. If
the people thought jerome Kearby would
lay down the battle he has so faithfully
waged at this time when we are pouring
VIGOROUSLY over the citadels of plutoc-

have no such fear: kearby is patriot

mittee will withdraw his name and nOmi-

let them do so. Mr.. Bryan, having
