said that he then went to his wife and
told her the entire story, whereupon
she advised him not to submit to being
blackmailed.
Alsip said he finally agreed to give
$4,000. OF this amount $500 was paid
to her attorney and $500 to herself.
1t was further agreed to pay $1,000
when the child became 3 years OF
age. Mr.. Alsip said he made out some
notes. Twentythree of them were for
$50 each, one was for $3.50 and still an
other was for 81 900. The notes were
placed in the hands of an attorney of
the name of Scrivner, an associate Of
Morgan's. One of the notes issued by
Mr. Alsip, for $1,000, was to fall due
on August l, 1896, the others when the
child reached the age of 3 years. He
paid 500 a month until the supposed
child was born, and then paid $50
month-all these amounts to be applied
TO liquidating the notes.
One day in San Francisco. continued
Mr.. Alsip, Reel B. Terry, the we'll
known attorney, came to his office and
asked him if he knew that he had been
blackmailed. Mr.. Alsip said he told
him that he did not think it was possi-
BILE. Mr.. Terry assured him that it was
true. Then he asked Mr.. Terry to come
to Sacramento, and he did so, telling
Mr.. Alsip the details of deep conspir-
acy which had been formed to force
money from him. Mr.. Alsip says that
he went to San Francisco and inter-
viewed Mrs. Morgan, from whom he got
the entire story.
Then he wrote back East to the
young woman, who had married in the
meantime, and told her what he had
ascertained. She wrote and acknowl-
edged that Mr.. Alsip had been victim
lied, and later on she made an affidavit
to that effect. Mr.. Alsip says that he
then made a demand upon Scrivner for
the notes in his possession, but he re-
fused to give them up unless Morgan
was cleared, which Mr. Alsp refused to
do. Suit was brought against Alsip
upon one of the notes, but, he says, he
did not pay any attention to it,
Mr.. Alsip says that, all told, he has
paid out in the matter $2,350 Of this
sum $3.50 was paid as an installment on
the note for $1,000.

Tnnr For Tom Underwood.

The Louisville Post of Wednesday
contained a picture of Mr.. 7. G.
Underwood, accompanied by the fol-
lowing sketch, by j. W. Harris:
"Ihe subject of this sketch writes
as we'll as he draws and paints with
the hand of an adept. He is city
editor of the Hopkinsville New Era,
and the correspondent in his city Of
the Evening Post, He has been
writing poetry and prose for six years,
and has been painting for over half
that time. Some of his recent work
ia caricature has been pronounced
unusually good, and he is just now
getting some canvass ready to try
his latest efforts in the New York Art
Exhibit. All of his spare time is spent
in his studio at home, where with the
assistance of an artistically inclined
wife, he blends some colors that his
friends believe will yet make him a
name in the Eastern galleries. Mr.,
Underwood is still young man, AID
only few months since married one
of the most charming girls inChristian
county. He has worked on two OF
three of the daily papers in Southern
Kentucky, but each time has returned
to his first love, the New Era. in
which his versatility and genius shine
out in every paragraph he writes"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear,
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube gets inaamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
hammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inham-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that can not be cured by

The June Ladies' Home Journal
presents an infinite variety of strik-
lngly interesting, timely and practi-
cal features. 1t opens with an article
by William George Jordan on "What
Victoria Has Seen" which graphical
ly recounts the progress of the world
Ia the past sixty years, since the core :
nation of the English Sovereign.
Coming on the eve of the Queens
Jubilee it is especially timely. The
establishment of Methodism in
America is told in an interesting
article, by Rev. W. j. Scott, d D., on
when John Wesley Preached in
Georgia." 1t narrates Wesley's great
work, his forceful preaching, de
scribes the first Methodist sermon 10
America, which was delivered by
Wesley, and his Sunday. school
which was the first in the world.
"Uncle Sans Confession" de-
scribes how the money paid into the
Conscience Fund OF the United States
Treasury is received, and how its
guilty senders carefully avoid reveal
ing their indemnity.
Along the more practical lines are

FRANK STEVENS CHANCES.
He is Confident That He Will be
Nominated Tomorrow.

Frank Stevens, who is one of the candi-
da tes for register of deeds, says that he
feels confident of securing the nomination
at the Republican primary tomorrow.
Mr.. Stevens has probably not devoted SO
much of his time to the work of making
a canvass as some of the other candidates
because he works in the Santa Fe shops
and has taken very little time from his
work. Mr.. Stevens served in the city
council two terms from the Second ward
and he made a record for honesty and
disposition to look after the interests of
the city. Since he has lived in Topeka
he has been laboring man and he is
we'll thought of by his fellow workmen in
the Santa Fe shops that his friends say
he will poll almost the entire vote of the
shops. Mr.. Stevens will make creditable
officer if elected.
