mine enshrouded editor, appar-

we had really expected it would

The question of the legal status
of newspapers Of which the Ma

to be a type, has been raised by
the attorney general, and it is
not the province of the Enter
prise editor or any other scribe
to decide whether or not such
opinion will stand law.
At the best, however, it leaves
a doubt as to the legal status of
such publications, and if The

based upon constitutional law,
and that when that body renders
a decision it becomes a matter of
law, and there will be no going
behind the returns.
But until such body shall have
passed upon d point, does not an
opinion of the attorney general
constitute the common law or
does such opinion sink into in

The Latest Scientific Knowledge
 on Food add Digestion.

The real cause of most of our dis eases Is simply an inability to digest food. This induces tkinness, weakness loss of flesh and fat, loss of vitality wasting away.
 Loss of fash and vitality means con stant liability to sickness. Wasting away is consumption.
 If getting thin is what ails you, thsre is only one thing to do--get fat, The only way to do 1t is to take something which will help your stomach and sti n, ulate it to do it's work.
 If you are tired out you do not like to move your legs or arms, If your stomach is tired it does not like to digest; 1t cannot do it's work.
 To eat, or even to eat with relish, does not necessarily mean that one is being nourished, Strength, vitality, and flesh are the true indications.
 Getting thin is sign that you need the Shaker Digestive Cordial. You would not be getting thin if you could digest your food.
 The Shaker Digestive Cordial not only contains artifcially digested food, but it will digest other foods in the stomach.
 A single 10 cent bottle will show whether or not 1t is going to meet the conditions of your case, and if so, It's continued use may be depended on to effect cure. All druggists keep it in stock.

Al tbe Hyparion.

"The Wizard of the Nile" with MT. Frank Daniels and his comic opera company, was presented at the Hype- rion last evening. This piece was re- ceived here with great favor last win- ter. and enjoyed such success wherever it was presented that it is now doing a second season It is without doubt one of the most delightful light operas that has been written of recent years. Vic- tor Herbert's music is extremely tune full and me1odious and often refresh ingly original. The ensembles are clev- erly written, and the orchestration is musicianIy and pleasing. To MT. Her bert's own instrument, the cello, are assigned obligato and solo effects which bring this member of the orchestra into unusual prominence. The libretto is by MT. Harry B. Smith, to whom all literary skill is by nature denied, but who has the invaluable gift of being able to provide opportunity for inces- sant horse-play. Hence he is the best paid and most sought after librettist among the comic opera constructors of the day.
 The company is practically the same which was seen here last winter. Frank Daniels is always funny and never s does the same thing twice alike, so he may be seen a. great many times before Ilis humor pals. Miss Caroline Bolene, who replaces Miss Dorothy Morton, has a light voice of good quality and sings with considerable cultivation. Louise Royce is still the "Abydos" and makes the part prominent by her splendid figure and striking stage presence. Walter Allen is still the King and Gre ia Risley the Queen.
 The mountinga are especially hand some and artistic, and the costumes are excellent in color. And the chorus sing ing is the best we have heard from any comic opera organization for some time. The whole production is on 8 fine scale, and promises delightful en- tertainment.

PERSONAL.

An important theatrical man in the person of MT, Max Klaw of the well known firm of Klaw & Erlanger was in the city yesterday in conference with Manager Bunnell relative to the forth coming engagement of their new ex- travaganza, Jack and the BeanstallS,' 2 which comes to the Hyperion for one week, beginning October 26. MT. Klaw Is authority for the statement that this production will eclipse anything in the line of burlesque, and that the theater- goers will open their eyes in astonish- ment when they see it in New Haven. MT. Klaw left on a late train to join "The Lady Slavey" in Springfield. This is also one of their many suc- ceSSeS.

NEW YORK IS A FOREIGN c1Ty

NEW YORK IS A FOREIGN CITY.
 The greoater New York has a popula- tion nearly equal to that of the original thirteen states at the time the con- stitution was adopted, and greater than any one of forty-one of the forty five states as they exist to day; it's tax able property is assessed at nearly three billions of dollars and it's invisi- ble property is probably as much more, making its total wealth over six bill- ions, or nearly one-twelfth of that of the entire country; it's public income of $50,000,000 a year is five times greater than that for state purposes in the most wealthy state in the union.
 Unfortunately it is not homoge- neous population. Only 20 per cent, of its inhabitants are American by birth and parentage, and of thesefully one third were born outside of the state of New York, so that the New Workers of New York descent are barley one in eight of the entire population. The number of those born in foreign count ries is 42 per cent, of the whole. There are 100000 persons of German parent age in greater New York, and nearly as many of Irish 100000 of Russian, and and as many of Italians, and 300,000 of other foreign percentage. There are more Germans than in any city in Ger many except Berlin, more Irish by twice than in any city in Ireland. Large portions of the population can not speak or read the English language vast numbers of them never saw the Constitution Of the United States or of the state of New York, and have lit tie or no knowledge of our history or form of governrnent.-From "The Government of the Greater New York;" by Col. F.V. Greene, in the Oct ober Scribner's.

much danger and distress. This was Dr. Pierce's conviction thirty years ago, and he set about to find a way to set the trouble right. The result was the prepa- ration and introduction of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, the only medicine of its kind devised by regularly gradu- ated, experienced and skillful specialist in the treatment of the diseases of wo- men,-the only medicine ill the world that frees the period of gestation from it's discomforts, and makes parturition safe and practically painless. It is an abso- lute specific for all forms of female weak ness and disease. It may be obtained at drug stores, and any woman who would like to know all about it, or who would like to have advice about her health, should write to Dr. Pierce, chief consult- ing physician at the Invalids Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y.
 Any woman who is sallow and bilious and headachey, who does not sleep. we'll and who Is troubled with any form of indigestion can do no better thing than to try the effect of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are the only positive and permanent cure for consti- patton. They stimulate the Hetion of the liver and assist Nature in getting rid of impurities You do not become Slave to their use. Take them until the regular healthy action of the bowels has been restored and then quit. They are the only remedy of their kind that is real remedy. They do not cause griping or any other unpleasant feeling. Don't let your drug gist impose upon you and substitute something which he says is |" just as good"

WI BEECHER FOR SENATOR

Eis musket and marched to the defence of his country. He has always been a republican. Shall he be turned down and relegated to the rank of private citizen for man who has not always accepted James G. Blaine (cheers and applause) as authority in republican doctrines and principles You may do as you please, but gentlemen, if stand alone, by vote shall be cast for Will liam s. Beecher, whose name l now present to you"
 Ex-Judge Pickett seconded the nom ination of William I. Beecher, saying, that if there was any man the republi- cans should honor, it was he who barred his breastto his country's defense in the hour of her peril. William s. Beecher has stood up for the principles of the republican party, not only when it was at the flood tide of it's glory, but when the dark clouds of diversity threatened its very life. From his boyhood he has been republican. He will wear no mans collar. He will advote no meas ure that will put the republican party of this city under the harrow. l never want to vote to support any man who will vote to put us back under such a government. I want to support Will liam s. Beecher, a prince among man.
 Isaac M. Ullman followed ex-Judge Pickett, supporting MT. Whitney. He acknowledged that he fought the con- solidation bill two years ago. It had occurred to him many times since that he might have been mistaken, and he was more convinced when he saw the condition of municipal affairs as they have existed for the last six months. He reminded MT. Benton that MT. Whitney was not the only republican on the consolidation commission, as Prof. George D. Watrous was also a member He called attention to the deadlock in the board of public works, and to its consequences
 Frank c. Bushnell wanted a man whose republicanism did not need any apology He certainly thought MT. Whitney's did. He wanted to vote for MT. Beecher
 Samuel Maclauchlin spoke in favor of the candidacy of MT. Whitney, and re- minded the delegates that this was the time to extend the right hand of fel- lowship to all republicans, no matter what had been their political wayward ness in the past.
 This finished the speechmaking and the convention proceeded to ballot. AL derman Smith moved that the first bal lot be an informal one.
 Fred A. Betts and I. M Ullman were appointed tellers. The whole number of votes cast was 96. Beecher received 50, Whitney AZ, Johnson 4.
 A formal ballot was then taken, which resulted in MT. Beecher obtain ing 55 votes and MT Whitney 42 votes. Chairman Beers announced the cleo tion of William S. Beecher. A. McClel- land Mathewson moved to make the choice of Mr. Beecher unanimous, which was done.
 Just before the conyention was de- clared adjourned MT. Welles called up- on the veterans who belonged to the tsWide Awakes'' in 1860, to respond this evening and march in the monster pa rade.

 A bottle of olive oil happened to be on a, shelf where the officers could see 1t. Bowers seized the bottle and as- sisted by his fellow officers poured the contents down the gasping woman's S throat.
