A REPUBLIC OF GOD.

The Kind of Government Henry
George VIII Worship.
New York. October 2O.--Wrting to a
German American political club Henry
George says: 81 do not believe In an ex
else in any fern. The attempt TO pre-
vent people from drinking by taxes and
excuses upon liquor increases cost, pro-
notes adulteration and defeats, l think.
the very end 1t has In view. All such
taxes nre promotive Of monopoly and cor
ruption. Besides what goes to the govern
ment much larger amount Is taken by
private parties VINO find n profit in the
maintenance OF taxes. AS was the case
with our whisky tax, SO 1t Is with all
taxes of that nature. The difficulty is not
to institute them. but to repeal them. LII
censes and taxes have always instituted.
and always must institute, an element of
corruption, which is made TO furnish means
by which political rings maintain them
selves. | am free trader in the full
sense of the term and would put every
lining on the basis OF equal rights. l think
that the province OF the government Is to
prevent one individual from interfering
with the equal rights of any other.
AS to the question Of Sunday closing.
I believe in individual freedom. The per"
day should not be interfered with in any
way by the person who wishes to sell or
drink liquor on Sunday and the person
who wishes to drink or sell liquor on Sun
day should not be interfered with by tho
person who wishes to go to church. The
Sabbath was made for man and not man
for the SabbathL The law should merely
see to it that liquor selling Is conducted
in decency and order. A mans conduct
should be governed solely by his own con-
science, 50 long as he preserves, the pub
lie peace"
Speaking at mass meeting at Majestic
hall Henry George said 'ITor this Re-
public now l care nothing. But 1T IS for
the Republic that is coming that how
down and worship. Not a Republic OF
tramps and millionalres; not Republic
where one man has the power Of car;
not a Republic where women faint and
children go hungry; not TO this Republic,
but to the one which Is yet to ccme, a
Republic OF God n Christian Republic in
the true sense OF the word"

WOMEN WANT A HOME.
Chicago Womau's Club Has Two Plans
Under Consideration.

Chicago, May eff an ideal stu
alton can be found and an ideal build
ing erected thereon during the two
years which will elapse before the lease
of the present quarters at Is Washing
ton street expires, the Chicago Wo-
mans club will have a permanent abid-
ing place of it's own. This conclusion
was the result of a, mass meeting yes
terday afternoon, when fully 500 club
women met to talk over the plan to
secure a woman's clubhouse
The new president of the Woman's
club, Mrs. Mary c. Remick, presided.
The first motion, made by a woman
who writes for papers, was that the
representatives of the daily papers
should be requested to leave the meet
ing. A heated discussion followed,
which the president stopped by calling
for a rising vote, and the reporters
were permitted to remain.
The question of a wOman's club
cussed 81 length. DR.. Leila BedeIl,
the first speaker, proposed two plans.
One was the purchase outright of Han
del hall, which, with its present income
of $50, 900, was offered to the club for
$3.50, 900. The other was the purchase of
a property and the erection of build
ing.
In either instance the property should
be owned and controlled by a stock
company, to be formed from members
of the Chicago Woman's club.
Dr. Julia Ross Low read an offer from
a business man, whose name was sup
pressed but who, it was stated, was
deeply interested in the welfare of the
Woman's club, stating that a suitable
building would be erected on the prop
erty opposite the auditorium, 17-21 Con-
gress street 1t should consist of a six
story structure, two floors of which
should be given up exclusively to the
use of the Womans club, and were to
contain an auditorium, parlOrs, dining
room and committee rooms. The struct-
llre should be known as the WOman's
Club building.

JUDGE BREWER INDORsED.
Governor Leedy Agrees with Him on
the Interstate Commerce Law.

Governor Leedy is much pleased with
the decision of the supreme court against
the interstate commerce commission. He
said today:
Judge Brewer tells the truth when he
says the commission was never intended
to accomplish anything. In my opinion
the commission has never been other
than a subterfuge-a scare-crow to fool
the people. The law was passed as a
sham and if another should be passed
twelve years would probably expire be-
fore the law should be discovered to be
unconstitutional. A repetition of the ex-
perience through which we have just
passed would follow

ANTI-TOXINE FOR LOCkJAW
New Remedy Successfully Tried at
San Francisco.

San Francisco, May 2S.-A new treat
ment for lockjaw has just been sue
ceSsfully tried at the German hospital
under the direction of Dr. Conrad Well
The case is exciting a great deal of
interest in the medical profession and
among the friends of the hospital, as it
is the first experiment with this rev
treatment west of the Mississippi and
one of the very few experiments in this
country.
The patient, who owes his life, as the
physicians believe, to the new treat
Tnent, is Edmund Rhein, now about %
years old, who received an injury to
his thumb about a month ago. Doubt
was entertained at first whether an
amputation would not be necessary.
This was avoided, however, but later
symptoms of lockjaw began to develop.
AS the symptoms were not severe at
first the ordinary treatment with sed-
atiVeS was tried. The patient grew
steadily worse and DIR. We'll decided to
try the new treatment. By this time
the disease had extended SO as to affect
almost the entire nervous and muscu-
lar systems.
Within IS hours under the new treat
ment signs of improvement began and
at the end of a week Rhein was pro-
nounced out of danger. Yesterday he
said he felt no symptoms of the disease
at all, only the weakness, which was
natural result of the ordeal through
which he had passed.
The new treatment consists of in
jections of a tetanOus anti-tOXine, sim
liar in it's source to anti-toxine of diph-
iberia

NEW BRIDGE FOR NIAGARA
Another Arch of Steel viii Span the
Gorge.

Niagara Falls, May 28.-Another new
bridge is to span Niagara's gorge It
will take the place of the upper suspen-
sion bridge and is to be finished by April
1, 1898 So much is practically certain,
though the contract will not be awarded
for two three days. When the latest
projected bridge is completed, the Can
adam and American sides will be con-
nected by two of the finest steel arch
structures in the country, equipped for
railroads and trolley lines, carriages and
pedestrians.
The bridge designed to replace the up
per suspension bridge will be built on
the parabolic principle and it viii un-
doubtedly be one of the greatest engi-
neering feats of the year. When it is
finished, changes on both sides of the
river will take place. The trolley cars
viii carry people from one side to the
other, connecting with the observation
line on the Canadian side, and the local,
Buffalo and Gorge cars on the American
side.

CONSUELO'S INCOME.
Comes Entirely From America, But
She Snubs American Charities.


London, May 29-In spite of the circum-
stances that the Duchess of Marlboro gh
has refused to contribute to the funds
for the endowing of beds for American
patients in London hospitals, in recogni>
ton of the diamond jubilee, on the
ground that she is not now an American,
Mr.. and Mrs Cornelius Vanderbilt today
subscribed $1,000 to the cause, which
brings up the total already pledged to
nearly $4,000.
In fact, the young Duchess's refusal to
subscribe to the American Victoria
Jubilee Memorial seems to have stimu-
lated those unfortunate Americans who
can neither palIiate nor deny their ma
tionality. to greater efforts on behalf of
the fund.
Within the last few days, subscriptions
have poured in in amounts ranging from
1 guinea to the 5000 contributed by Mr..
and Mrs. Vanderbilt. 1t is expected that
the remaining $4,000 will be forthcoming
within three weeks. The sum of S25, 900
will permit the endowment of an Ameri-
can cot in five of the London hospitals
and the endowment of 5000 for each will
place the American cots outside and
above any vicissitudes that may at any
time occur to the general funds of the
hospitals selected. These cots will be at
the service of any Americans who may be
suffering and in need in London.

to drive them entirely out of the sys-
tenn. 1t has done so in thousands OF
carefully observed cases.
The nervous debility. sleeplessness
and kidney disorder that seems SO
threatening and disheartening lose
their hopeless. desperate character
when one takes Paine's celery COM
pound to drive them out of the system.
Many a woman worn out by exciting
anxious work, will find her strength
brought back in a wonderful manner
and her Overtaxed nerves regulated and
nOuriShed by the use of Paine'S Celery
compound Paine's Celery compound
braces and invigorales the relaxed
nervous system and eradicateS harm
full humOrs from the blood. 1t makes
the appetite hearty and the digestion
thorough; it permanently cures indi-
gestiOn, a. sluggish action of the liver.
and drives out rheumatism, neuralgia
and blood impurities. Every trace of
nervous exhaustion or kidney or liver
weakness is removed by Paine's Celery
compound
There are no more striking examples
of the great practical value of Paine's
Celery compound than is heard from
the lips of women who have been made
well by its vitalizing action.
It increases the volume of blood in
the arteries and makes it more capable
of feeding the body. It creates a
healthy appetite and urges upon the
tired nerves and brain the nOurishing
elements they lack, but are slow to ex-
tract from the blood when it is in a
sluggish, unhealthy condition.
The blood becomes ruddy and pure;
its circulation is fastened, and every
function of the body-the brain among
the first-feels the fresh impulse of re-
turning health from the use of Paine's
Celery compound.
