every evidence of truthfulness, that the Great Wallace Show this season is one of the two largest in America. This country Is known as the only home of great tented amusements, consequently this aggregation can be safely chased as the greatest in world. Over 1000 people are engaged in the various departments, 500 superb horses, 50 cages and dens Of wild animals, including the famous 'Man Eating Wallace Lions," herds of zele- plants, droyes of camels and osiriches, huge spread of canvas covering over 14 acres of ground and seating capacity for 12,000 persons. Over 100 feature acts are presented, among which are the fam, ous Nine Nelson Family, for whose equal B. E. Wallace has long had standing challenge of $10,000.00 This challenge has never been accepted and never will be, as their equals do not exist. The Werntz Family, The Martells, The Ten Dellameads. Sansoni Sisters, Three PStits, Rowena, Three Sisters Maccari and spectacular ballet, Gaza, the mag netic girl, and the singing mules are also among the principals. The great menag- erie, containing as large collection as any geological garden can boast or ana several specimens exclusively it's own, the splendid company of high-class male and female bareback riders, acrobats, clowns, aerialists, performing animals, pnree rings, two stages, O1yInpldn Sld6es, mid-air carniyals, the superb and excit- ing hippodrome races, contests and exhi- bitions, including thoroughbred, chariot, standing and other races of ancient and modern times, unite in cnaking pro- gramme of entertainment that has never been approached in point of excellence and magnitude in the circus arena. The management do not tolerate the presence of any gambling or catch-penny affairs about the grounds, and special detectives are carried to protect their patrons from this usual nuisance. A grand free street demonstration will be given on the date of the exhibition, leaving the grounds at 10 a. m., sharp. A solid mile of glitter and splendor, repres es=nting an investment of $4, ,000, ,00000, is promised. Excursions will be run on all railroad lines.
 The title of "The Greatest Show on Earth" has been claimed by many az gregations which annually visit this vi- cinity, but it is certain that there ale none greater than the Great Wallace Show. Not a feature as advertised was omitted, and all who attended the performances were loud in their praises of the production and the honest way in which the management conducts the gigantic affair-Pittsbu; Pa.)

THE PULLS AND
 THEN THE FINES

IT. B. Weaver was arrested Nov. 1 on the charge of an affray. His case had been continued from day to day until yesterday, when he was discharged. It appears that his alleged antagonist could not be located. On the docket appears the entry, dismissed for want of proof, at the request of Officer Bodeker."
 Tod Killian and Tom Taylor. both ne- groes, were charged with an affray. Not many years ago Tod was a well known character to the police. His place was watched for some time, in the hope of locating a fence" for stolen property. In the police court yesterday Tod was fined $10 and Taylor s7.50. Both negroes seemed well supplied with money and paid their fines.
 Will Hicks was charged with embez- zlement. He had employed an attorney, who demurred to the warrant as issued for Hicks arrest. After a short argu- ment Judge Feagan sustained the ee- murrer and, Hicks. was released.

THEY RIDIcULE IT.
Many People Ridicue !he Idea of an Absolute Cure For Dyspepsia and Stomach Troubles RidcuIe, However, is no Argument, and Facts Are Stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so common and in many casss so obstinate to cure that people are apt to look with suspicion on any remedy claiming to be a radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia and ind!- gestion. Many such pride themselves on .hsir acuteness in never being hum bugslsd, especially on medicines.
 Til s feGil of tieEng humbugged may be carried too far; so far, in fact, that many persons suffer for years with weak digestion rather than risk little time and money in faithfully testing the claims of a preparation so reliable and universally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tublets.
 New Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly different in one important respect from ordinary proprietary medicines for the reason that they are not secret pat ent medicine, no secret Is made of their Ingredients, but analysis shows them to contain the natural digestive fermen.s, pure assptlc pepsrn, the digs stive acids, Golden Seal bismuth, hydrast's and nux. Tey are not cathartic, neither do they cure indigestion on the common senee plan of Grgesting the food eaten promptly. thoroughly before it has time to ferment, sour and cause the mischief. This is the only secret of their success.
 Cathan'tic pills never have and never can cure indigestion and stomach troubles because they act entirely upon the bowels. whereas the whole trouble is really in the stomach.
 Stuart's Dyspspsfa Tablets, taken af- ter meals, digest the food. That is all tbere is to tt Food not digested or fsH 6rgested is poison as 1t creates gas, acidity. headaches. paIpdtation of the heart, loss of flesh and appetite, and many other troubles which are often callsd by some other name

Chief of Police Goss, Hugh Malloy,
A. j. Manley and George Hunsacker,
as representatives of st. Paul Division
No. 40, Brotherhood of Railway con-
ductors, met with the members of the
Commercial club yesterday noon, to
further consider a plan for securing
the grand divisional biennial conven-
ton of railroad conductors for st. Paul
III 1899. The proposed plan met with
the hearty approval of the Commercial
club, and means of carrying it out
were generally discussed. The first
steps, which are of immediate impor-
lance, il the convention is to be brought
to st. Paul, will be to have 1000 hand
some pamphlets gotten out to be taken
to California in May, when this year S
convention meets. b, 1t is proposed to
have the pamphlets, a work of art con-
tanning hotel and railroad rates, pleas
ure resorts and prominent business
houses. Chief Goss and j. D. COndit,
who will attend the May convention,
will constitute a committee to urge the
claims of St Paul. The conductors
have held conventions in nearly every
other section of the country and it
is thought that the chances for st. Paul
in SO are good. The board of directors
Of the Commercial club, will take the
matter under consideration at a special
meeting today. IA
