Never in the history of medicine in
America has anyone performed the cures
that have been performed by DR.. How
ard. the great lecturer, who has created
a sensation in all parts of America by
his extraordinary cures of Cripples, DIR.
Howard's home is Cleveland, Ohio. He
will arrive in Canton today, and will give
a course oflectures and free clinic at the
Grand Opera house commencing Monday,
April 2Oth. He will cure few rheuma.
tic cripples free of charge, no matter how
bad they are, provided they call at the
Barnett House at once, between the
hours of 8 a. m. and p. m.
This is done to show the people of
Canton what power over suffering
and pain this wonderful treatment has.
DR.. Howard gives an exhibition Of fthemost
wonderful character. 1t will greatly
excel anything ever attempted before
the public. The startling situations will
many times outrival that of the drama
No one should miss this opportunity
of seeing and hearing this man who
comes with such a remarkable record.
DR.. Howard performs cures which will
astonish the skeptical, set the serious to
thinking and convince the doubtful. No
matter what the disease, how bad, how
long standing or hopeless the case, if
they are amenable to cure, they will
"arise and walk"
All those who are compelled to walk
with canes or crutches, Rheumatic, Deaf,
etc, are invited to call at the Barnett
House, and as many as possible will be
treated free of charge.
The office of DR.. Howard, at the
Barnett House, will be open to the pub
lie from a. IN. to 6 p. m. daily. Those
who wish to take advantage of the
wonderful offer made by him should call
at the hotel promptly. DIR. Howard will
take upon the stage rheumatic and
paralytic cripples who have not walked
without crutches for years, and in a few
moments time he will have them throw
their crutches away and 90 home with
out them.
People should not get the idea that
this is some medicine company" selling
a patent nostrum of some kind for the
doctor has no medicine to sell or adver-
tise, nor is it Magnetic" or Faith
healing farce.
DIR. Howard is one of the most original
takers in America today. One moment
he has had his audience in tears, the next
screaming with laughter. People who
attend the lecture on Monday evening
will see one of the most wonderful sights
of their life. The lecture and clinic is OF
a nature that any lady in the city can
attend. Dr. Howard wishes it under,
stood that he will only take few out Of
the many for free treatment. Remember
the office will be at the Barnett.
Owing to the great throng which al
WAYS assemblies at the theatre, il would
be wise for all who contemplate witnessing
this grand work to be at the Grand Opera
house by o'clock Mondayevening next
We predict that the Grand will not
be large enough to hold all who will be
there next Monday evening. The door,
will be open at and the clinic will com
meuce at sharp.
People who wish to take advantage Of
the offer made by DR.. Howard should
call early at the hotel, commencing

LEADERS PREDICT AN EARLY
ENDING OF CONGRESS.
Routine Work Nearly Finished-A
Great Many Questions, II Was
Hoped Would be Disposed of,
Likely will be Suspended.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-An unusu.
ally carly adjournment of congress is
being predicted by the Republican lead
ers in both houses and every sign points
to the fulhllment Of their prophecies.
With all of the regular appropriation
bills, except two, already passed by the
house, with one of those remaining re-
ported from the committee and likely
to be passed with only day or two Of
debate and with the other in process of
preparation the house leaders are plac-
ing the limit of this session at the first
Of June, allowing, as they think, suffi-
cient time for the senate to take care of
the important bills sent to it from the
house.
The senate committee on appropria-
tions Is well up with its work on the
appropriation bills, and the senate is
not far behind its committee. IL is the
general opinion that the appropriation
committee can complete its work on
the bills still TO be considered within
three or four weeks time, and that il is
possible for the senate to finish them by
the middle of May. There are some
who estimate that it will require until
result No one puts il later. With the
appropriation bills out of the way, it will
be exceedingly difficult to hold the sem
ate In session for any purpose. Conse-
quently the prevailing opinion in the
senate is that the final adjournment Of
the session will not be postponed far
beyond the beginning of the first of the
summer months.
1t is admitted on all hands that II
adjournment is reached as early as the
majority predict and seem to desire a
great many questions, which it was
hoped the session would dispose Of, will
be left suspended in the air as it were
Among them are the bankruptcy, Mica
raguan canal, Hawaiian cable, Pacific
railroad, fur seal and New Mexico and
Arizona statehood bills, besides the
Monroe doctrine, the resolution for the
election of senators by the people, the
Dupont election case, the Alabama cleo.
tion investigation, the various financial
bills and resolutions, and the general bills
reported and to be reported from the
committees on commerce, pensions and

WASHINGTON, April l3.-After two
days debate the house. by a vote of 100
to 5S, passed the Grosvcnor filled
cheese" bill. The Democrats voted
solidly against the measure, together
with II Republicans. Practically the
only amendment adopted was one re.
ducing the tax on retail dealers from
$40 to $12. The bill requires the manu-.
facturers of filled cheese to pay tax of
$400 annually, the wholesale dealers
$3.50 and the retail dealers $l2, and for
failure to pay such tax imposes upon
manufacturers q fine of from $400 to
$1,000, upon the wholesale dealers from
$3.50 TO $1,000, and upon retail dealers
from $40 to $500.

AT JEFFERSONTS TOMB.
THERE DEMOCRATS MET AND RE-
NEwED THEIR vows.
Prominent statesmen Present-Vice
President Stevenson, Herbert VIII.
son and Harmon, Besides sena.
tors and Congressman.

MONTICELLO, Va, April 14.-Tbe one
hundred and flfty.third anniversary of
Thomas Jefferson's birthday was fit
tingly observed here, where he lived
and died, by gathering Of large
number of prominent Democrats from
all sections of the country. The dis.
tinguished guests included Vice Presi-
dent Stevenson, Secretary Herbert, Post.
master General Wilson, Attorney Cen
eral Harmon, Ex-Governor Russell Of
Massachusetts,, Chauncey f. Black and
Lawrence Gardner, president and secre.
tary respectively Of the national asso-
citation of Democratic clubs and nearly
two score of senators and representa-
tives, besides number of national com.
mitteemen. The party left Washington
in special train and on arriving In
Charlottesville proceeded at once to
Monticello, about two miles distant from
the town, where they were welcomed
by MIR. Jefferson M. Levy, the present
owner of the estate.
The exercises were held upon the
broad lawns, upon which were assem-
bled several hundred people who had
come from the surrounding towns and
farms. Three addresses were delivered
the first by Chauncey f. Black, the
second by Ex-Governor Russell, and the
third by ex-senator Daniel of Virginia.
The greatest interest attached to the
speeches Of the two latter, Mr. Russell
standing squarely on sound money"
platform and Senator Daniel combating
his position with a free silver argu-
ment.
Ex-Governor Russell declared that the
secret of Jefferson's power and leader
ship was in his steadfastness to inherent
principle, his courage, his resolute lead
ership, which, he said, have guided the
latest, as they did the first of the Demo-
cratic administrations, that with vigor
and patriotism have made dominant the
wishes, the rights and the welfare of the
whole people. Said he:
Whatever the storm, whatever the
gusts of passion or of prejudice, how
ever threatening the clouds of panic
and disaster which have hung over all
nations, our president has kept the rud-
der true. To no political flaw has he
trimmed sail, in no stress has he lost
courage or abandoned principle. There
is inspiration for us in the leadership of
Jefferson and Cleveland. 1t nerves us
to stand fast to principle, to put aside
expediency and compromise, and with
courage and fidelity to meet all pending
issues.
$50 shall we merit and win success
and hold the confidence Of the country
as we have in the past. We need not
fear defeat. We met it in 'SS and then
went forth united and strengthened to
triumphant victory. We should fear
the discredit of sacrificing principle to
expediency, or of turning aside from
the safe course which Jefferson estab-
lished. Let our good Democratic ship
avoid the passing flaws which would
drift her hither and thither, content to
wait the powerful and steady gale
which will carry the nation upon her
true course"

Committee Objects to Paying $500 PsT

WASHINGTON, April 13.-The senate
committee on naval affairs has held a
secret session for the purpose of consid.
ering the testimony which has been
taken in connection with the armoI
plate investigation. The only definite
conclusion reached was not to interfere

to be given to private firms as hereto.

price, $500 per ton, which the govern.

is too high, but has not found feast
BILE way Of reducing it, The plate can
be made for $500 per ton.
The committee will probably forbid
