JUDGE KIMBALL'S DANGER
Schwanck Andrews, Who Made
Threats, Is R captured.
He Wrote His Honor Many Threat

The police have learned that Schwanck
| Andrews, the Austrian crank, who was re-
turned To the government asylum several
| days ago, was Il dangerous lunatic of the
| Guiteau type, and they feel better satisfied
| since he has been placed under lock and

Andrews escaped from st. Elizabeths S
| about three years ago by swimming the
| river II is said, ana since that time has
| Travelled in all parts of the United States.
His recapture was brought about by. Il L

While Andrews was away from Wash

wrote many threatening letters to officials
here, including President Cleveland, the
| Austrian minister, and Judge Kimball OF
the police court. He imagined he had
grievances against all, and mailed them
cpistleS, mostly postal cards, telling them
| OF the dire vengeance he was going to

IS 1T A TRiFLE?
THAT COMMON TROUBLE, ACID DYs-
PEPSlA OR SOUR STOMACH.
Now Recognized as a Cause of Serf-
Gus Disease.

Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach, is a form of indfges-
ton resulting from fermentation OF the
food. The stomach being too weak to
promptly digest it the food remains until
fermentation begins, filling the stomach
with gas, and bitter, sour, burning
taste in the mouth is often present. This
condition soon becomes chronic and be-
ing an every day occurrence is given but
little attention Because dyspepsia Is
not Immediately fatal, many people do
nothing for the trouble.
Within a recent period remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach trou bles. II is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and is now becoming rapidly used and pre-
scribed as a radical cure for every form
OF dyspepsia
Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets have
been placed before the public and

Quacks Who Peddle Pills.

Major Mckinley in his home
speeches so far has treated the tariff
as the main issue to be determined
in this canvass, and his associate on
the ticket, Mr.. Hobart, in speech
to his neighbors at Patterson, N. j.,
on Saturday, proclaimed that "sound
money is not the main issue, and
protection is." There is no doubt it is
the purpose of Hanna, Mckinley and
Hobart to give the battle this COM
plex:on, but the people will deter
mine, not they. And judging from
what we hear from the people, gold,
ties and silverites, it is their deter
mination to settle the money question
SO far as they can, at the coming
presidential election. As to the idea
of making tariff the supreme issue In
this canvas, as attempted by the Nc
KinIey leaders, Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
in the "North American Review"
for June makes these observations:
''Those who prescribe tariff changes
as cure for the deep-seated malaey
which has poisoned the nations cur
rency-the life-blood of prosperity
remind us of the quacks who vended
pills to prevent earthquakes" And
again, he says: "INe may collect all
the surplus revenue imaginable; may
legislate in any and all directions
upon other than the financial question
and all will be in valn."
Major Mckinley up to the present
time has been merely quack vend-
ing pills to prevent an earthquake.
That is the Judgment of Mr.. Andrew
Carnegie, and is he not prophet ill.,
spired of Midas?

THE UNANIMOUS DE-
MAND OFTHE OHIO
DEMOCRACY.
The State COnyentiOn-COl.
w. "A. Taylor, Chairman.
The Resolutions.

The state convention in Columbus,
yesterday. was practically unanimous
in favor of the free coinage Of silver,
and no other issue was mentioned in
the platform.
Col. w. A. Taylor, the well known
contributor of the SENTINEL, and 6
personal acquaintance of most of our
citizens, was temporary chairman, and
made an eloquent speech, outlining
the policy of the party in the coming
campaign.
Gen. Warner, of Marietta, a noted
leader and advocate of free silver
coinage, was made permanent chair
man. He made a strong speech
which was enthusiastically received.
The platform adopted is, substan-
tally the resolutions of our congress
ional convention, and is as follows:
We, the Democrats of Ohio, In convention
Assem- bled hold that the money question is
the vital and paramount issue now before
the people OF this country, and that its early
and correc: settlement is necessary to the re-
ival of business and the return of prosperity;
therefore.
RESOLVED, That we are unalterably op.
10 Sba o;r sic I'd nd q.
mand an immediate return to the consti-
tutional money of gold and silver by the res,
toration by this government independent OF
other nations, of the unrestricted coinage of
both silver and gold into standard money at
the ratio of l6 to l, and upon the terms OF ex-
act equality existing prior to 1873; such silver
coin to be full legal tender, equally with
gold coin for all debts and dues, public and
prI vate.
RESOLVED, That the delegates-at-large, this
day chosen by this convention, and the dele
gates at large to the national convention,
and the delegates to the national convention
from che several congressional districts, be
and they are hereby instructed to use all
honorable means to secure the adoption OF
the principles contained in the foregoing res
olution by the national Democratic conven-
tion to be held at Chichago July z, and to
vote only for candidates for president and
vice president who are known 10 be in full
accord Herewith; and to accomplish these
ends TO cast the votes from ihe state Of Ohio

A drowning man would have

MCKINLEY enthusiasm seems to be
a missing quantity. 1t must have rea
ched its food tide in the endeavor to
nominate him for certainly there have
been few exhibitions of Joy over his
nomination, in this neck of woods.
The first historic break in the Rep
ublican party in somewhat formid-
able bolt from the national conven-
fion may account for the chill that
has come over the spirits of the roos
ters. And then 1t is to be considered
that the goldites do not trust him
and the silverites are boiling in wrath
at the platform, and both policies have
plenty of representatives in the Rep
ublican party. 1t is comfortable read
ing McKinleys bitter denunciation
of President Cleveland s'for his effort
to demonetize silver, when the
national convention has put him on
that kind of platform.

If HE has not already. the presi-
dent in few days will receive dis
patches from General Lee, consul
general at Havana, prepared and
mailed last week, giving the results
of his observations on the civil and
military status OF the island. The
inference is that General Lee will re-
port that the Spanish forces cannot
overcome the rebellion; that the
greater part of the island is in the
possession of the insurgents; that
American interests are suffering
greatly from the war, and that the
Cubans will accept no terms short of
independence. The president then
may have the materials on which to
act in better and Official knowledge
of conditions. And, as by that time
the Democratic, as we'll as the Re-
publican, national convention will
havo declared for the recognition of
Cuban independence, there may come
a presidential proclamation of that
character.

A Financial Meteor Shoots Out.

One of the most singular incidents
of the St. Louis convention was the
unanimity with which the southern
delegates supported the gold stand
ard, and there were upward of 800
of them who cast their votes in that
direction. The negroes especially
were very enthusiastic for gold.
They had no use for cheap money
and plenty of it, and planted them
selves like granite on the gold basis.
This is more singular as the south
has been generally set down as
pretty unanimous for the white
metal and lis free swing at the
mints. In most of the southern
states the Populists and Republicans
have united against the Democrats
On free coinage as the cornerstone
of the union. One OF the colored
statesmen, a gold delegate from
Alabama, elected by Mark Hanna
and seated over opposing delegates
by Mark Hanna, has given his fin
ansial views to the public with sing

"What is the strict meaning of l6

ed, Notwithstanding the oft repeat
ed explanation of the phrase. As
the term will be used with increas.
ing frequency during the coming

poses under the American bi-metalist
system sixteen oupces of silver equal
In value one ounce of gold.
In the standard silver dollar of
the United States there is pure sill
yer weighing 37l4 grains, the rest
of the weight being alloy. In the
standard gold dollar there is pure
gold weighing 1922 grains, ex'
elusive of the alloy. With a very
slight fraction of variation, the pure
silver in a silver dollar is sixteen
times the weight of the pure gold in
a gold dollar. That is what is
meant by "l6 to l."
