THE CLAYTON MURDER
MEMORY OF THAT EVENT
 REVIVED
EVENT
By Letter From a Georgian Who Claims That He Can
 Lacate the Murderer.

The Gommereial-4ppeai cores, pondert at Little Rock writes to his paper IS follows.
 Little Rock, Ark, Nov 17, 1897.
 9The memory of the most famous crime ever committed in Arkansas the assassination of Hon. John M. Clayton-has been revived by the receipt of q letter by Gov. Jones, from Pitts, Ga, by a person signing the name of Luther Akins. Tie writer of the letter recalls the crime, inquires about rewards, and states that he can locate the mur. derer and produce proof of guilt,
 "The murder Of John M Clayton will be remembered by politicians and public men all over the United States. Clayton was the brother of Hon. Powell Clayton, the present minister to Mexico. He was the Republican candidate for congress in 1889, his opponent being Hon. Clifton R. Breckinridge, late ambas- sador to Russia. The canvass was q spirited one and the contest was bitter. Breekinridge was declared elected, and Clayton filed a contest. While this contest was in progress Mr. Clayton went to PlummerVille to look after his interests, While in his room one night, irst before preparing to retire. an assassin crept up in the dark and fired q load of buekshot through the window oi h.s room, !nhicting wounds from which he died.
 The murder created Q sensation all over the United States. Dcctives were employed and worked diligent- ly on the case, and many persons were suspected Of the crime, but the murderer went unpunished.
 Several times since then the memory of the crime has been re vived by the discovery ot some nav cew, but the assassination had al most been forgotten when the letter from Akins once more brought the terrible affair into public notice.
 The legislature once offered q re- ward of $5, GOO for the conviction Of the murderer, and the reward is probably yet in force.

THEY RIDICUl.E IT.
MANY PEOPLE RlolcU1E THE IDEA OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE FOR oYsPEpsIAkNo STOMACH
 TROUBLES.
R,dleu,e. However Is Not Argument and
 Facts are stsbbora Thinss.

Rldlcnte. However. Is Not Argument and
 Facts are stsbboFn Things.
 Stomach troubles are so common and In many eases SO obstinate To cure that people are apt to look with suspicion on any remedy claim ing to be radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia and indigestion. Many such pride themselves on their acute ness in never being hnmbugged. |. especially on medicines.
 This fear of being humbugged may be carried too far; so far, Tn fact, that many persons suffer for years with weak digestion rather than risk little time and money in faith fully testing the claims of n prepara- ton so reliable and universally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
 Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly different in one important respect from ordinary proprietary medicines for the reason thHt they are not q secret patent medicine, no secret is made of their ingredients, but analysis shows them to contain the natural digestive ferments, pure aseptic peDsin, the digestive aids. Golden Seal, hismuth, hy drastis and nux. They are not ca thartic, neither do they act power fully on any organ, but they cure in- digestion on the common sense plan of digesting the food eaten promptly, thoroughly before 1t has time to fer ment, sour and cause the mischief. This is the only secret of their suc- cess.
 Cathartic pills never have and new CT can cure indigestion and stomach troubles because they act entirely upon the bowels, whereas the whole trouble Is really In the stomach.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken after meals, digest, the food. That is all there Is to it. Food not digest ed or half digested is poison as itcre- ates gas, acidlty, headaches, palpita- ton of the heart, loss of flesh and appetite, and many other troubles which are often called by some other name.
 They are sold by druggists every where Ut 50 cents per package. Ad- dress Stuart Co.,. Marshall, Mich, for book Gn stomach diseases or ask your druggist for it. 17-l9.2i

Booths Nephew.

Mir Creston Clarke, who will pro. dHce the new four act romantic play The Last of His Race" at the opera house on next Wednesday night may not only be sad to be the son of the illustrious English comedian, John Sleeper Clarke, but also the nephew of the late Edwin Booth, whom he resembles SO much that when be plays parts that MT. Booth used to interpret, the audiences have difficult ty i'll realizing that it is not he who is npon the stage.
 Mir. Clarke received hls stage early training under Edwin Booth, and It is therefore not surprising that he has developed Into Il stage manager of unusual excellence. He pays the greatest attention to trivial details SO that his productions are marked by completeness not often found on the stage of the present day.

so BELIEVES W. c. WHITNEY
He is Also Of the Opinion That the Issues Of 1900 Will
 Not Be the IS-
 sues of '9G.

NEW YoRE, Nov. l8.-fhe Jour nal and Advertiser today says
 In an interview lastnight William c. Whitney said If the Democ- racy be true to itself it will resume control of the nation in 1900
 Mr. Whitney was in England on election day He said he knew too little of election results to discuss the situation, but nc conceded the improvement in Democratic eondi- tions and declared the outlook hope. fal for the party.
 Restoration of the Democracy to power depends on the party itself If harmony comes it will win. l should say that the tendency of Democratic thought is toward Q res toration of harmony. To that ex. tent, the status Of the party as q political organization is improved.
 "Does the complete restoration of harmony in the Democratic party depend upon a change in the issues upon which its national battle was fought last year?'
 "I believe the issues will be chang cd replied the ex-Seeretary,
 Mr Whitney declared himself oat of politics and would go no deeper into m analysis of future results.
