General Lee has gone and done it
now. He has dared ito do business in
his shirt.sleeves in a room where hung
the portrait of our noble Queen" A
Habana paper. La Carta del Sabado,
makes the fearful charge. It says:
ssAfter asking for aims to soccur ima-
ginary persons ruined by the effects Of
adisastrous war indirectly sustained by
iniquitous complexities and tolerances
of potency that titles hsrself friend
", he has the discourtesy of assisting
an official act in lesser clothes, in salon
where the portrait Of our noble queen,
model of all virtues, was ostentated, sit
ting in this light apparel" 1t proceeds
to roll it over and over as sweet
morsel, and then concludes its long ar
ticle as follows: "lf he has not the
liability az diplomat, the correction Of
a gentleman ought to be demanded.
The man that in an official act remains
in his shirt sleeves because the heat or
the shame of his actions suffocates
him, is not worthy of representing, in
a town as large as Spain, nation as
powerful as his. May his destitution
quickly come, as in this way we will be
the gamers. What difference with
the always most correct, energetic, and
circumspect conduct of his anteced-
ent!n We give La Carta's English OF
it as it was translated and printed for

The man who stands idly by and sees
the life fading out Of his wife's face,
sees her health going, sees her becom
ing old and faded and wrinkled when
she should still be in the perfect en-
joyment Of vigorous, useful health, is
either less than man or else does not
know of the one remedy which will
bring her back to health and strength.
Perhaps her husband cannot persuade
her to go to her doctor, because she
naturally breads the inevitable exami-
nations and local treatments. He can
persuade her, if she needs persuasion,
to take DR.. Pierce's Favorlte Prescrip-
ton. This truly wonderful medicine
has cured hundreds of women after the
best physicians have failed. It has
been in constant use and tested every
day for thirty years. It isn't an exper
iment, there are no chances about it.

ments, weaknesses, Irregularities and
displacements Of internal organs pecu-

Er. Lydekker. the English naturalist.
says that while the ordinary European
BREEDS of horses may have been deriv

juGated by some implement max
err Of western Europe. unnumbered
centuries ago, it is probable that thor
oughbred" horses are of eastern origin.
He thinks that Turkestan was their
original home, and that the ancient
TQrcomans and Mongols were the first
Alatic tribes to make the wild horse
the servant and friend Of man. Horses,
believed by some authorities to belong
to truly wild race-that is to say,
whose ancestors were never domesti
Gated still inhabit the central Asian
steppes. From Turkestan, according
to DIR. Lydekker to Hindustan, Persia,
Assyria, Egypt and Arabia. In the
last named country they became SO in
dispehsable that many have supposed
Arabia to be the original home Of the
horse. The interesting fact ispointed
Apt that our North American Indians,
the horse was unknown be-
fore the advent of white men. have
shown the same skill and adaptability
in mastering them that the Arabsexhi-
bited, SO that, as DIR. Lydekker re-
marks, HAD we not historic evidence

The only true natural relief must be as

A man who is suffering from the evil
effects of constipation doesn't feel like
work, and can't even enjoy his leisure
hours. Dr.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are a
sure, swift, safe, and permanent cure for
constipation. They are tiny, sugar coated
granu1es. One little Pelletn is a gentle
laxative, and two mild cathartic. They
never gripe. Dishonest druggists try to
get you to take a substitute for the sake

Attempted suicide.

G.. 8. Madison, brother of Lillian
Madison, for whose murder Thomas j J.
Cluverins was hung during Governor
Lees administration, attempted TO
commit suicide in Richmond Tuesday.
Early in the morning tn young man
put pistol to his head and fired. His
aim was bad. and before he could re-
peat the shot policeman had him in
charge. Before attempting his life
young Madison wrote a letter to the
public. in which he shadowed the early
termination of his earthly career. In
his long letter Madison says: "Forsak-
en- by those who once professed to be
my friends, baffied in everything try
to do, looked down upon by loved
ones, friendless and alone, with no one
to confide in, with no hope here or
hereafter, my life looks dark, and it
has been SO dark and lonely for six
years that will try and get little
rest across the river" A fatality seems
to attach to the Madison household
since the tragedy at the reservoir, in
which the girl was drowned by her
cousi q lover.
