THE GIRLS
Quartette of St. Louis Beauties Left
Their Fathers House.

st. Louis. Dec. For Rent-Three
Rooms" This is the commonplace
sign that hangs on the front OF the
house at i5ll North Twentieth street,
occupied by Jacob Burkhardt, but the
cause for the sign is unique.
The vacant rooms were until a few
days occupied by Mr.. Burkhardt's
daughters, Ella. Laura, Lolita and Mrs.
Emma Godfrey. About Two months ago
the father told them that if they were
not married by December | they would
have to move ont and take care of
themselves. Not caring to marry to
please their father, they have left him
and are at present living in a very pref.
ty little fiat at 2lO2 Obear avenue.
Ella is said to be engaged, but she
preferred not to get married at once on
account of her fathers orders. and she
has gone with her sisters. The Others
are said to have opportunities, but
none suitable to them. The young wo.
men are apparently happy and say they
are able to take care of themselves.
They are all popular among their ac-
quaintances.
Burkhardt is a retired business man
in comfortable circumstances. Said
ne:

ing girls to marry, but at the same time

ped in three parcels, have been kept in
pickle at the morgue in readiness to be
produced in court if needed during the
trial Of Mrs. Mack and Martin Thorn.
The confessions of the prisoners made
the Identification of the ghastly re.
mains unnecessary.
G~uldensuppe was a member of a Ger
mar benevolent society and it is said
that this organization has requested;
that the remains of their late brother
be turned over to them for interment.
The IRON will refer the request TO
District Attorney YOungs, who will
probably ask that it he granted.
Mrs. Mack has confessed and her trial
will only be a matter of form. So the
hcadless body of William G~uldensuppc,
sections of which were picked up in
East river and in a thickct in West
chester country. will have Il funeral and
decent burial. The head. cncased in
plaster of paris, is at the bottom of the
East river and will probably never b"

THEY RIDICULE IT.
MANY PEOPLE RINCuLE THE
IDEA OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE
FOR DYSPEPSIA AND
STOMACH TROUBLES.


Stomach troubles are so common and
that people are apt to look with sus-
picion on II remedy claiming to be
a radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia
and indigestion. Many such pride
themselves on their a%cuteness in never
being humbugged, especially on med
icines.
This fear of being humbugged may
be carried too far; so far, in fact. that
many persons suffer for years with
weak digestion rather than risk a
little time and money in faithfully
testing the claims of a preparation SO
reliable and universally used as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important res
pect from ordinary proprietary mcdi-
cines for the eason that they are not
a secret patent medicine, no secret is
made of their ingredients, but analysis
shows them to contain the natural di.
gestive ferments. pure aseptic pepsin,
the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bis
muth, hydrastic and nux. They are
not cathartic, neither do they act pow
erfully on any organ, but they cure in
digestion on the common sense plan
Of digesting the God eaten promptly,
thoroughly before it has time to fer
ment, sour and cause the mischief.
This is the only secret of their suc-
cess.
Cathartic 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 Dyspepsia Tablets. taken at,
ter meals, digest the food. That is all
there is to it. Food not digested or
half digested is poison as it creates
gas, acidity, headaches. p%alpitation 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 at so cents per package. Address
Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich. for book on
stomach diseases or ask your druggist
for it.

the existing savings bank system,

more thinly populated parts of the
country (where more capital is requir-
ed and transfer it to the centers of

Unless those who have ~canvassed
the senate are much mistaken, the Ha>

promptly ratified by the senate. or an
annexation resolution passed and Ha-
wall brought into the union as a terri

attitude toward the island and Spain

A CROP OF DUELS.
Likely to Grow Out Of the Agitation
in France.

New York, Dec "A dispatch to the
Herald from Paris says: 1t will be a
wonder if the Dreyfus- Esterhazy affair
is not productive of a crop duel Sew
eral Of the Paris papers are fighting
one against the other like Kilkenny
cats and personalities are flying around
broadcast.
The editor of one publishing COM
pany has called the editor of a morning
journal all manne of names, and even
suggested that the latter is not en-
titled to the lame he bears. This has
caused the publication of a certificate
of birth by the editor of the morning
paper. whereat the evening sheet re-
turns to the charge by asking the morn,
ing editor how he served his country
in 1870.
Emile lola has been dragged into the
q%uarrels. He has contributed an article
to the Figaro, arguing that if Dreyfus'
relations have formed a syndicate to
secure newspaper support they were
only doing what the y had a perfect
right to do. The journal now asks
how much lola received for the article.
The Figaro makes out a strong case,
for Esterhazy's writing has been COM
pared by experts with the memoranda
UNI said to be Dreyfus'. 1t having been
stated thai General Pellieux had no
Intention Of making the comparison.
The Figaro says this is the capital point
