aIteT the health OF
the delicate organs that are the most import
ant parts OF her physical makeup, she will
soon be healthy, arniable helpmate, in
stead OF burden to the partner of her lows
and sorrows. No women who suffers from
weakness and disease of the distinctly wo-
manly organism can be good, helpful wife
to an ambitious man. 1t is easy to keep
these organs healthy and vigorous.
The most wonderful medicine for women
is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. II
acts directly on the organs that make her
woman. 1t cures all weakness and disease
1t allaysi inflammation soothes pain, and
permits the tortured nerves to resume their
natural condition. 1t stops all weakening
drains and the woman who has hitherto
been nervous, weak and fretful becomes
robust, helpful and happy. Thousands of
happy women, who were once pairl-tortured
and miserable, testify to its virtues. All
good druggists sell it.

IMPOSED UPON.
The Register Led to Print Fake Story by
a Generally Reliable Correspondent.

The Register Led to Print Fake Story by
a Generally Reliable Correspondent.
Yesterday morning the Register
printed an article under Weston
date, giving details of a battle sup
posed to have been fought in a church
in Nicholas county, by United States
deputy marshals and postoffice rob
bers. The battle was alleged to have
taken place Sunday last. On Tuesday
the Pittsburg, Post, Cincinnati Com
bercial Tribune and other papers
printed an account Of the alleged bat
tie, but did not give details. The
Register first learned of the story
from these papers, and in an effort to
verify it, asked its Weston CORE
spondent for further details. This COR
respondent, heretofore reliable, sent
the article which appeared in the Reg
lister.
There were limitations yesterday
that the story was not correct, and the
Register wired it's Charleston CORE
spondent to see United States Marshal
Thompson and secure verification.
The reply follows:
"The sensational story sent out from
Weston of tragedy in Nicholas county is
fake. Last Friday Arch McClung and
Hayes Roder were looking for Milton
Hickman, to arrest him on a State war
rant, for the unlawful selling of liquor.
They did not find him. but found his
brother. Dick Hickman. with whom they
got into an alteration, and McC!ung fired
shot, the ball taking effect in the f1eshy
part of Hickman's leg. There was nc
other shooting or trouble Of any kind"
The Register apologies to its read
ers and assures them that such news
items are never sought by it and
never welcomed or printed, unless the
paper is deceived.
In this cas- it is but fair to state that
the Registers Weston correspondent
seems to have been imposed upon also.

YELLOW FEVER.

Mobile, Ala, November 10.-Not only

San Francisco, November 10.-Will-
lam Henry Theodore Durrat, the young
medical student, condemned to death
for the murder of Blanche Lamont and
Minnie Williams in this city in April,
1895, was brought over from San Quen-
tin prison to-day and upon being taken
before Judge Bahrs shortly before noon,
was sentenced to be hanged Friday
next.
Cleanly shaver, with the exception of
moustache, which has been allowed to
attain a luxuriant growth during his
sojourn in the prison, attired in his best
suit of clothes, over which he wore a
faultlessly fitting oyercoat, light color,
Durrant made a conspicuous figure on
the train and ferryboat. His reappear-
ance in public was the signal for the
gathering of crowds, the eager press Of
the multitude to see this arch-murderer,
perhaps to speak with him and the dem
onstrationS along the line Of his route
tIAeSI OLlC iAItlC VI lhC PCopAS
in his affairs has in no way abated.
At the city hall there were great crowds
that impeded the progress of the party.
They filled the halls and it was with
difficulty that they were beaten back
by the officers.
An impatient mob also thronged the
corridors and hammered relentless.y at
the dooIs of both court and ante-room.
Sheriff Wheelan and his men were on
hand and the rush was successfully
stopped when no more could gain adj
mission to the court room.
At II o'clock Judge Rahers called
upon Durrant to stand at the
bar. The young murderer stood
up and then his marvellous
self-control asserted itself He looked
infinitely cooler, wonderfully better
than he did in the ante-room. He was
deadly pale, but calm and self-possess-
ed.
The defendants attorneys entered
technical objections to the proceedings,
but the judge overruled them and pro-
nounced judgment slowly and impress
sively, ordering that the young de-
PENDANT be hanged on Friday, November
~, between the hours Of sunrise and
noon.
AS the words Friday, November u, y
left the judges lips mumur of horror
rang through the room. The short
two days to prepare for death after two
years of false hope and encouragement!
Women hid their faces, while the men
craned their necks to see how Durrant
would take it. He expected it; he
never linched. AS the date Of his
doom was pronounced just the suspic-
ion of a sheer appeared on the corners
of his mouth. 1t was the expression
of one who would bid defiance to the
last. And when all was over and the
officers began to clear the court room
he resumed his seat and chatted I'M
concernedly with his father and some
sympathizing friends.
When the gaping mob was disposed
of. Durrant was handcuffed and taken
back to San Quentin and the condemned
cell.

A Prominent Spaniard Says There Is No
Fear of War With the United states
Washington, November 10.-Senor
Jose Canalejas, enc of the foremost pub
lie men of Spain, editor of Ell Heraldo,
of Madrid, former minister of justice in
the Liberal ministry, and closely ident-
fled with Premier Sagasta, the new
Liberal regime in Spain, arrived in
Washington to-day accompanied by
Captain Vega and Mr.. Alex Saint Au-
bin, of Madrid. While the visit is I'M
official, much interest attaches to it
among public men, owing to Senior Can
alejas' intimate knowledge of condi-
tons at the Spanish capitol and also
for the facility and the efforts for con-
ference between him and Senior Depuy
de LONE, the Spanish Minister. The
latter called on Senior Canalejas soon
after his arrival. Senior Canalejas, &C
corded to a representative of the AS
ISOLATED Press a brief interview.
"The feeling in Madrid is one of ex-
pectancy," said he, in good English,
but with marked Spanish accent, "but
there is little or no feeling that a seri-
Gus crisis will present itself between
the United States and Spain. Genral
Blanco has but just landed in Cdba, and
there is little opportunity thus far to
Judge of the mild and beneficial policy
he is charged with executing.
''As to the autonomy which Spain
now offers to Cuba, it is autonomy of
the genuine character"

Marriag re Did Not End 1t.

Frederick Hutchinson is in Jail and has
found that marriage does not always sat
isfy the ends of justice in proceedings such
as he was defendant in. Daisy Dean Nor
gan, OF lSl West Market street, made the
complaint against him, and he was arrest
ed Dec. 50. He was unable to give bono
and, though willing TO compromise by mar
riage. was unable to raise the money for
the license and the fee TO the justice of
the peace, who should perform the cere-
mony. The proceedings were brought be-
fore Magistrate Clark, and while the con-
stable was taking Hutchinson from the
Jail to the courtroom the latter tried to
sell his coat. vest and overcoat for 81, but
found no buyer. Subsequently a friend
failed TO realize 50 on the overcoat and
Hutchinson went back TO Jail. He was
bound over TO the Circuit Court. Last
saturday the girls mother furnished mon
ey enough to get a license and Magistrate
Hay went to the Jail and married the cou-
pie. Magistrate Lockman was first asked
10 perform the ceremony, but refused TO
nave anything 10 do with the case, telling
the people that IL was Magistrate Clark's
case and they ought to get him.
The transcript of the cass was completed
and was sent 10 the Circuit Court early
Monday morning, and when the girl and
her mother called and asked that Hutchin-
son be released the magistrate Informed
them that ii was too late; that they would
have to settle the matter with Judge Allen.
To the Circuit Court room they went and
were there informed that the case would
have to take the usual course now, and
that In addition TO making provision for the
support of the child, Hutchinson would
have TO convince the court that he would
also provide for the mother. Under the
act passed by the last General Assembly
a forfeit of $500 can be collected from a
man who marries a woman as a compro-
mise and then deserts her.
