CLEvELAND's YELLOW DOG.

The controversy III the Senate be-
tween Senator Tillman, of South Car
olins, and Senator Hill, of New York,
would be fully illustrated by a picture
of mastiff and a loud-barking ca
nine of no distinct species. The way
the Senator from New York pranced
around Tillman and talked coutinu-
ously at the top of his voice
was so like the barking
barking dog that never bites, and the
conduct of Tillman was so like the
mastif who, conscious of his own
power, seemed to be considering
whether or not it was his duty to
grab up and shake the life out of the
little fellow, or bear his noisy but
harmless barking, that the Senate re-
sembled country town on court
day.
The Senator from South Carolina
ventured to criticise the President OF
the United States, apparently uncon-
scious that it would make the Presi-
dents faithful sentinel bark. Much
has been said about the "watch-dog
of the treasury" and ambitious poll
ticians have labored to secure that
designation. Mr.. Clevelsnd's good
fortune came without effort on his
part. His watchdog cost him
nothing. The faithful animal was
presented by the goldites of New
York to the Executive, who would
not have received him if be had at
tempted to become the property OF
his excellency on his own account.
If there had been no outside iudu-
ences to induce Mr.. Cleveland to
adopt the stray canine, the Senator
from New York would probably have
remained astray.
The President, however, was not in
the position to rudely reject the gift
of the goldites of New York, although
the animal presented had nothing to
recommend him but the obligations
of the Executive to the donors. It is
impossible, however, for Mr.. Cleve-
land to wholly conceal his want of
appreciation of the gift. If he ca
resses the faithful animal at all, he
keeps it a profound secret. He new
er has been known to even pat the
subservient and vociferous gift on
the back. 1t is asserted, on what
seems to be good authority, that the
goldites have discovered that the
noise which the barking of the Sena-
tor from New York makes IL some
way confuses the people and attracts
attention from their peculiar dealings
with the Executive. In other words,
they think tie Senator from New
York good thing to use after the
manner in which the Chinese use
certain peculiar implements of war
fare. However that may be, and
whether Mr.. Hill will be q profitable
investment for the soldites, or use
ful cuttle-fsh to darken the waters
and prevent the curious from know
ing wha: the Executive is doing, are
unsettled questions. The gratitude
of Mr.. Hill to the Executive for fa-
vors not received yeri6es the saying
that There is one species of watch
dog that loves his master for the
kicks he receives. Silver Knight.

There has been great pressure
to bear upon Congressman McLaurin

but it came from every county in the
State, and for time it caused him to

ssThe War of Wealth''-A Great Pop
Mar Success at The Star Theatre.

The biggest melodramatic hit of the
season isl The War of Wealth, new
melodrama by c T, Dazey, produced at
the Star Theatre, New York, last Mon
day night The houses have been pack
ed to the doors nightly since the open
ing, and no snch cheering multltudes
have been seen in a New York theatre
in many day. The production is des-
cribed as one of the costliest ever seen
on a metropolitan stage. The New
York papers. with scarcely dissenting
voice. pronounce "The War of wealth"
a tremendous popular success and agree
that it will easily run out the season. The
great run on the bank scene, in which
over 200 people are employed, is said to
almost carry the audience off their feet.
1t should not be forgotten that this big
and elaborate production is being pre-
sented at the Star at popular prices. 25c,
soc and 75c.

and all the rest of the
family know that pure drugs are

Doctors know it, too. So it's easy
to understand why people who

is that the prices are no higher than
they ought to be.

productions but never so happily as in

Being Sick

is largely a matter of
choice. Sickness can usually be
cured. In cases of dyspepsia,
heartburn and sour stomach always
take ''Ripans Tabules" This good
remedy is compounded largely of
Rhubarb and Soda. The one acts
gently on the bowels; the other
sweerens the stomach. "R1pans
Tabuies" are sold by me for soc.
a box.

Grandmother

knows that "pie- plant"
is healthy and that soda settles the
stomach. Doctors know the same
thing. "Ripans Tabules are largely
made up of Rhubarb and Soda. So
it's easy to see why grandmothers
and doctors both can recommend
"Ripans Tabules" for dyspepsia
and all stomach disorders. We sell
this reliable remedy for soc. box.
One "Ripans Tabule" is enough
to give relief.

time. Most druggists say what we
