robbery Of the express car on the south
bound Gulf train near Demins, n. NJ,

a rule, only small sums are carried over
that line. However, il IS believed that
the loss is somewhere between $1,000

There we're four men in the party
that committed the robbery. They were
stationed on the blind baggage and it
is presumed they boarded the train at

city committee two years ago. will call
the members of the executive commit
tee together within a day or two for
the purpose of discussing the cali for
the city primaries. It is also TO be con-
sidered whether TO call one for each
ward or one for each precinct. At the
time of the campaign of two years ago
the wards we're not subdiVided into pre-
cints, that innovation having come with
the first state election law passed.
Chairman Civilian SAYS some men,
hers of the party seem to favor the
calling Of ward conventions, as hereto
fore. While others think small nrima-
ries in each of the precincts should
be called, each of these primaries to
select the number of delegates to the
city convention apportioned to it. and
these delegates from all the precints
comprising q ward to meet and uomiu-
ate two councilnnen for that ward.
Several other matters will come before
the committee, but it is expected that
the call for the primaries win be issued
before many days have elapsed.
The members of this committee are.
George Shorten. First ward: John n.
Perkins. Second ward; Thomas D. Dee,
Third ward; H., ". Civilian, Fourth

main thing being that the primaries BE

"Well," returned the witness, thought

stories that sort of gave me that idea"
Were the stories ever proved untrue?'
"No-o-o, can't say that they were"
"And you would brand this man as one
whose word is not to be relied on merely
because you heard him tell one or two
stories that seemed to you improbable.
Why that's preposterous! Lots of things
may be true that seem absurd to you.
Can you recall any of those stories?"
"Well, l remember once he told about
building a dock with no tools but a
hatchet-faced man and a sawhsh, and,

ed by a general open discussion which
developed some interesting features.
Rev. Luther de Yoe, of HarrisburE
dcplorcd the division of the churches
and claimed that the existence OF sects
was of the devil. He created sensa-
ton by saying that the older churches
of Harrisburg cid not want and wore
not willing to receive into communion
persons rescued from a degraded lie,
and were not partial 20 receiving those
who were not of the wealthy and cul-
turcd classes.

MISSING PEOPLE.
MANY PEOPLE RlDlcULE THE IDEA
OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE FOR
DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TROUBLES

Stomach troubles are so common and
in many cases so obstinate to cure
that people are apt to look with sus-
picion on any remedy claiming to be
radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia
and indigestion. Many such pride
themselves on their acuteness in never
being humbugged, especially on medi-
cines.
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 Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
Now, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important re-
spect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not a
secret patent medicine, no secret is
made of their ingredients, but ana
lysis shows them to contain the natur-
al digestive ferments. pure aseptic
pepsin, the digestive acids, Golden
Seal bismuth. hydrastis and nux.
They are not cathartic, neither do they
act powerfully on any organ, but they
cure indigestion on the common sense
plan of dgesting the food eaten
promptly thoroughly before it has
time to ferment, sour and cause the
mischief. This is the only secret of
their SUCCESS.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure indigestion and stomach
troubles because they act entirely upon
the bowels. whereas the whole trouble

A DEBTORS PHILOSOPHY.
Something for the Bill CoIIcc tor to
Illuminate Over.

Something for the Bill Collector to
Illuminate Over.
From London Tid-Bits.
a collector of unpaid bills has a hard
time of it. but one met philosophi-
cal debtor recently who convinced him
of some astounding facts. The collec-
tor said that he had been chasing the
said philosophical debtor for about six
months, and was getting tired. 1t was
always Come around tomorrow" or
Haven't got it now"
Say" he said, when he made his
last trip, ARE you ever going to pay
this bill?"
"Why, yes, some day" the philos-
opher replied. But look here, young
man, 7 want to show you thing or
two. How many bills have you in that
pack?"
About forty" said the collector.
How long does it take you to visit
all these people," the philosopher in
quired.
About a day"
What if all paid up promptly?"
"Why, that would be great"
would it? What would you do for
a living if all these debtors paid up in
one day?'
The collector looked blank for a mo-
ment.
Great Jerusalem! I'd be out of a
job"
well, then, don't be so anxious to
collect every penny due to your peo-
pie. one bill day is enough. AS for
me, come around some time next week
and l may do something for YOU" and
the philosopher faded away.
