Pastor Curtis Bay Baptist Church
A few weeks ago there was pubs
lished testimonial of the great vift-
tue of Paine's celery compound
from Rev. Charles L. Thompson, D.
D., LII. D., the eminent Presbyteri-
an preacher of New York City. Rev.
DR.. Meek, editor of the Central
Methodist, recently wrote an open
letter, telling that Paine's celery
compound had worked a remarkable
cure in his case. And last month
the great temperance evangelist,
Francis Murphy, told the public how
Paine's celery compound had been q
blessing in his family.
These are few among thousands.
Every one knows Conscientious,
charitable persons who are too busy,
more often too procrastinating, to
save their health from going to
pieces, and find it easier to help
others than themselves. Such per-
sons fill up the army of broken down
business men and slckly women.
Every one in this spring time needs
to purity the blood and regulate the
! nerves. Carry home today-not by
and by-a bottle of Paine's celery
compound. Cure -erYousness, neu-
ralgia, and rheumatism this spring.
You can now put your health on q
sound basis by means of Paine's
celery compound,
Charity should now begin at home.
Attend to your own health md that
of your family.
Paine's celery compound is within
the reach of every family where
there is member afflicted by any
stomach, liver or kidney trouble. 1t
cures permanently and rapidly.
1t must be distinguished from all
other remedies.

Atlanta Journal.
A remarkable editorial appeared in
the Providence, r. L, Journal last
Tuesday on "The New England
Mills"
The journal declares that the cot
ton manufacturers of New England
have at last become convinced that
the South is going to take possession
Of that industry and hold on to it
against all competitors 1t goes on
TO say that because they cannot
compete with the South in the manu-
facture of cotton the New England
mills are not to be abandoned but
will be devoted to another industry
in which no section has any advant
age over them
We are further told that the better
class of mill men in New England NO
longer contend that the South can
not compete with that section in the
manufacture of the finer grades OF
cotton cloth. A start is already
being made in this direction by some
southern mills and the Journal says
that "when the wedge is once driven
in, the irving force of the effort is
bound to be largely matter of
course"

PUTTING law into effect before it
is enacted is the latest phase of Re-
publican craftsmanship. 1t is need
less to say that such an attempt is
contrary to a Democratic form of
government. The retroactive idea
of imposing tariff months, perhaps,
before the bill finds it's way to the
statue books is simply preposterous,
but in keeping with the Republican
idea of making mere tools of the
people for the benefit of the money
power and the trusts.

Here is letter from the pastor of
the most influential church in South
Baltim more, that every truth seeker
should read carefully.
Every disheartened sick person
and every man or woman who has
lost faith in the remedies he or she
has tried because none of them has
done any good-every one who is
sick ought to be cheered up and
filled with new hope and deter nina
ton by the letter written by Rev.
William T. Bailey, pastor of the
Curtis Bay Church, the most influen>
tial church in South Baltimore.
On March 81, 1896, the Baltimore
Sun, under display headlines, pub
lished the following news of Rev. Mr..
Bailey's ffliction:
"Rev. VIM. T. Bailey, pastor of
the Curtis Bay Baptist church, was
paralyzed in the tongue while preach
| ing Sunday night, and lost the pow>
or of speech. The congregation was

called. He said Mr.. Bailey was suf

GUS prostration caused by hard study

The Czarism of Tom Reed is very
distasteful to those who still adhere
to the old idea that this is a govern
ment of the people, by the people and
for the people, but there is a fitness
of things about the Cars auto
cratic demeanor. He is one of the
trusted leaders of a party which,
when it gets into power, suddenly
swells up and imagines that it is the
boss of all it surveys and that the
people are It's servants. About two

expected to assert their sovereignty

A COMBATIVE LITIGANT
George Barnett Hunting Around for
Trouble

George Barnett is plucky, that is corr
ceded. Indeed, while his courage is un-
disputed, his judgment is as that of an
seeking a row with some of the judges,
and if he just keeps seeking long enough
he is absolutely certain of getting just
what he is looking for.
In September of last year Mrs. Martha
Barnett filed a suit for divorce against
her spouse, on several grounds, cruelty
being the principal one. The case was
set in Judge York's court and during the
pendency of the suit the judges life was
made a burden to him by reason of Geo.
Barnetts attempting to talk with him
about his case On more than one oc-
casion, even, Barnett went to Judge
York's home at Pasadena, and, failing
to get any satisfaction, came very near
making scene in court.
Something came up that caused the
hearing of the divorce in department
one, and there Mrs. Barnett obtained her
liberty with the custody of the minor
children and community property The
wife claims that the property was never
turned over in accordance with the or

A BIG CLAIM
j. M. Bedbury Demands $4,000 as
Damages

James NJ. Bedbury yesterday filed his
suit against the Los Angeles Railway
company to recover $4,000 damages for
INJURIES sustained through the negligence
of defendants servants.
The claimant alleges that on october
1th he attempted to get aboard a car
going west at the junction of First and
Cummings streets, at Boyle Heights,
and While in the act of getting aboard
was knocked down by another of the
defendants cars going east. He was
knocked violently to the ground. his
right shoulder, also back and spine,
were injured to such extent as to in
capacitate him from business.
The plaintiff, who is a contractor and
plasterer, contends that the car was
running at the speed of thirty miles an
hour, instead of the legal eight mile
speed. He expended $3.50 for medical
attendance, and asks judgment for
S15,15 and costs.

TWO PLEAS ENTERED
Gilbert Young Found Guilty on the
Robbery Charge

Gilbert Young, who, as codefendant
with Hoffman, was charged with robbing
Tommy Latter one night at the Eureka,
stables, on Broadway, was brought to
trial yesterday before Judge Smith and
a jury.
The evidence was much the same as
that given during the trial of Hoffman
save that it appeared that this defend
ant was a shade less aggressive in his
guilt than his companion. Throughout
Young maintained that he was n OF with
Hoffman, but after the latter commit
ted the robbery he went to Young's room
and aroused him out of bed to so out and
drink. The evidence yesterday contra
dicted this claim and showed that Young
was with Hoffman at the time Latter
was robbed.
A curious feature of the case is that
Young once confessed to the charge AMI
entered his plea Of guilty, and later
thought he had a fighting chance ana
withdrew the plea and entered one of not
guilty. 1t was thought yesterday that
inasmuch as hung jury had resulted in
the Hoffman trial, Young might be ac-
quilted. No such luck attended The de-
fendant. The jury We're out about three
