Opening a Slulce Gate

Relieves a dam of a superabun-
dance of water, The bowels are a
kind of sluice gate of the system,
and serve to carry off superhuities
which would otherwise flood and
damage it. Constipation obstructs
this avenue of escape. Hostetter's S
Stomach Bitters opens it and re.
lieves the system, This it does
gently and gradually, but COM
pletely, and does not, like violent
purgative, grippe, convulse and
drench the bowels, and leave them
weak and unfit for efficient service
afterwards, On the contrary, it
invigorates and regulates at the
same time that it relieves them. 1t
also strengthens and imparts ac-
tivity to the stomach, liver and
kidneys, counteracts tendency to
rheumatism and iuvigorates the
nervous system, For the relief and
prevention of chills and fever,
bilious remittent, dumb aCue and
ague cake, it has no peer among
modern remedies, Persons con-
valescing or suffering from the de-
bility or in6rmities of age find it
highly beneficial.

THE SUCCESS OF THE SPOoNERS

The advertisement in another
column calling attention to the re-
turn engagement Of the Spooner
Company, next Monday night is one
one that will be read with pleasure
by our people for in Texarkana the
organization has many friends.
The success of this company, the
present season has been simply
phenomenal for in twenty four
weeks in Texas they have played to
but one week of losing business and
amongst their record breakers we
call attention to a few, An au
dience of S62 paid people in Denison
the largest ever in that city, the
largest audience ever in Marshall,
the largest ever in Hillsboro, the
largest ever IN Texarkana, over 30O
being turned away on Saturday
night and this week adds another tc
to their list for on Monday night in
Paris 842 people were in the Opera
House it being the first time since
the house was opened that S, r, O,
signs were used on all three floors.
Much of this success is undoubtedly
due to judiclous advertising but the
principal cause is the undoubted
merit of the company.

LATith a better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle eefforts-pleasant 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-
tion 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 debilitating the
organs on which it acts. tits therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold By all rep
utable druggists
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laXa-
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most sllillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely

THEY WANT PROTECTION.

NEW YORK, Oct. IA Herald spe-
cial from washington says:
The Spanish government. through
Minister De Lone. has appealed to the
state department for the protection OF
the Spanish consuls at Brunswick, Ga,
and Jacksonville, Fla. Both Of these
consuls have complained to the Span
ssh minister hat their lives have been
threatened by Cuban sympathizers.
me sharp vigilance kept up by the
Spanish consuls over the movements
of the Cuban leaders in this country
IS the cause of hostility manifested by
the latter.
The Spanish minister represents that
the consuls at the places named are
in danger of personal violence.
Upon the receipt Of the communica-
tiop from Minister De LONE Secretary
Olnev at once wired the governors Of
Georgia and Florida urging that every
thing possible be done to protect the
Spanish consulates in their respective
states and pointing out the POSSIBLE
ties Of serious complications between
this country and Spain if the men sent
here to represent that country should
suffer violence at the hands OF our
citizens. The federal authorities nave
no other means of giving the protec-
ton demanded by the Spanish minister
than through the state authorizes.

SHERBURNE, Mimi, Oct. This
town is in STATE of excitement to-
night over the most thrilling tragedy
that ever occurred in Southern Min
nesota.
The bank Of Sherburne was robbed Of
a large sum of money. and two men
were almost instantly killed, about 20
this afternoon.
About noon two men, one Of whom
looked like mere boy. rode along the
main street on bicycles. They were
both we'll dressed. No particular at
tentiOn was paid 10 them, as Sher-
burne is a town Of but 5000 people,
most of them Workingmen, and at that
hour they were hurrying home to din
ner.
The strangers hung around the out
skirts until shortly after l o'clock,
apparently
SIZING UP THE SITUATION.
At that time they sauntered lazily
down the street and stopped immedi-
ately in front of the Bank of Sher-
burne. After a moments :aiK, they
went into the bank, and the elder of
the men engaged Assistant Cashier
George Thorburne in conversation.
Precisely what occurred inside the
bank is not known, as nobody was on
the street in that immediate vicinity
at that time. One of the desperadoes,
however, evidently got hold of a roll
of bills amounting to about $1,000
Thorburne probably tried 10 prevent tn
men from getting away with the
money, and they drew out their revolt
vers and began firing, at the same time
retreating. One of the bullets struck
ThOrbUrne in the neck, and another cut
the aorta, causing instant death.
The shooting in the bank aroused the
/ town, and people began running in that
/ direction. The first man to reach the
! place was Olaf Oestern, of Luverne, a
/ travelling salesman for the Wood Har-
/ veSter company, of St. Paul the des-
| peradoes evidently feared that they
would be captured as they quickly
| turned their firearms upon Oestern. He,
! made dash to grapple with them, bu1'
I was not quick enough, as he was
struck in the head and
FELL DEAD AT THEIR FEET.
They ran down the street. firing at ram
/ dom, While people in the street scurried
to places of safety.
The fleeing robbers ran about three
blocks to clump of bushes, where they
| mounted their wheels and rode rapidly
! away toward the Iowa line, six miles
to the south.
Mayor c. e. Everett at once did all in
his power to get here with the town
marshal to run down the bandits. He
also sent a dispatch 20 Governor
Clough. at st. Paul, telling him Of the
/ tragedy and asking his advice. The
/ governor answered immediately:
Wire all points and send out posses
surrounding Sherburne." The governor
also wired W. P. Hill, sheriff of Mar
tin county, 10 send out posses at once
and to wire all surrounding points.
AT 10 o. clock on ght tle sher fl p0s Sc
returned TO town, having found no
| trace of the desperadoes. A posse Of
500 men will leave here at daylight
