AN IMPRESSIVE CEREMONY.
seggars' Feet Washed by the Austrian
Emperor.

esegsars' Feet Washed by the Austrian
Emperor.
s. The Emperor Francis Joseph, as
usual on Holy Thursday, washed the
feet of twelve old men who dined at the
Berg palace in Vienna, There were
present (says our correspondent ten arch
dukes besides the Emperor, to remove
the dishes which his majesty himself
placed on the prettily decorated table,
only one side Of which was occunied. The
whole ceremony, at which the diplomatic
corps, p;ous ladies of the nobility, and
such of the public as had obtained tickets,
were present, is performed with military
precision. When the dinner is over and
the table removed, long white cloth is
laid over the twelve old mems knees,
their feet are barred, and while the court
chaplain reads the chapter of the day
in Latin, the Emperor, attended by two
prelates, who carry a golden ever and
basin, prepares for the sacred ceremony.
cipulorum" he kneels down before the old
est of the old men, who sits first in the
row, and when the prelate has poured
water over his feet, the Emperor dries
them. He then advances on his knees
to the second old man, repeats the action,
and so on to the end. When he rises to
his feet again he washes his hands, and
thirty silver pieces round each old mans
neck. The ceremony is then over, and
the Emperor, with his court, retires,
while the withered old men are taken to
carriages waiting for them by the stall
wart soldiers of the bodyguard.
Each of the Emperor's guests takes
away a large wooden bucket of old-fash-
Toned shape, with all the dishes of the
dinner, the. mug, plate and jug, besides
large bottle of exquisite wine. During
the dinner the dishes were not touched.
The twelve old women, whose feet the
Empress used to wash, do not now Says
our correspondent come to the palace,
but have their presents sent to their
homes The Empress has not performed
the ceremony since 1883. The Emperor,
throughout his long reign has shirked the
duty only once, in 1889, after his sons
death Sir Horace and Lady Rumbold,
for the first time, attended this cere-
mony recently, and seemed deeply in
terested in it. The French and Turkish
ambassadors were also present.-London

TRAMP NOW A MURDERER.
Fred Meyers Dies from His Wounds
Received in the Fight at
MarShfield

Marshfeld, Wis, May 6.-[Special.1-
The tramp who stabbed Chief of Police
Gerwing and Fred Meyers, brewery
employee, on Tuesday evening, is now be-
ing hunted as n murderer. Mr.. Meyers
died from the effects of his wounds this
morning.
Mayor Williams, upon receipt of the
news of Meyers death, Immediately
raised the reward for the capture of the
murderer to 5000 and the county will
offer an additional $500. A large posse
of citizens are still out and should they
overtake the man there is a possibility
that the formalities of a trial will be
unnecessary. The citizens are greatly
worked up over the outrage and threaten
vengeance on the murderous tramp who
welded the knife with such deadly et-
feet
The death of Meyers was unexpected
as the attending physicians were hopeful
of his recovery. 1t was supposed that
Chief Gerwing would not live through
the night, but his strong, constitution
bears him up and there is yet slight
chance of his recovery.
Sheriff Smith was here today and in
addition to the reward offered by Mayor
Williams, has offered a reward of $500
for the arrest of the tramp.

JENNY LIMBS PRECOCITY.
She Became a Pupil in an Opera School
When Only Nine Years Old.


Jenny Lind could not have been more
than years old when she woke up the
old spinet in the attic to repeat under her
tiny fingers fanfare that band used
to play in passing her home. This was
the first music that broke upon her tiny
ears" records Mrs. Raymond Maude, her
daughter, who writes of my Mother as
| Recall Her" in the May Ladies' Home
Journal. "There is also cat story"
continues Mrs. Maude, cher voice having
been noticed as singing to her cat, but
| won't give any credit to that and will
pass on to her ninth year, when the dl-
rector of the theater and opera school
at Stockholm was induced to hear her,
and to accept her as pupil.
Eat this school she also learned depOrt-
ment and gesture, in which she was al
ways perfect, and which, all her life,
made her bearing and carriage so stately
as to give her the appearance of tall
woman, when she really was not more
than feet 6. She was also beautiful
dancer, and loved dancing, though sell
dom indulging in it-refraining for her
health'S and arts sake, as she used to
say, since it tired her too much"
Mrs. Maude notes that Jenny Lind's
first teacher was Croelius, and also that
Garcia, one of her earliest instructors
in the technical art of singing, is still
living-in London. Jenny Lind began
making her professional tours at an age
when most girls are being rendered and
low pupils less gifted than herself, there
by gaining knowledge and experience.
Her first "full-grown" appearance was
made March z. 1887, when she was be-
tween 16 and II. Forty-six years later
she sang for the last time in public.

With such words of praise from a man OF
DR.. Won Spiegel's standing, q regular physi-
clan, a graduate and member of several uni.
versities, a man who has built up an enviable
reputation by his many cures, some of which
have been almost miraculous, we are doubly
encouraged to call the attention of suffering
humanity to the merits of our all-powerfuL
specifics, The Kickdpoo Indian Remedies.
The best known of these is KickapoO
Indian Sagwa, that greatest of blood puri-
fiers and corrector of all arrangements of the
stomach, kidneys and liver. 1t is purely
vegetable and contains no poisonous ingre-
dents whatever. Thousands are enjoying
healthy, happy, active lives today, who but
for its timely use would now be leading the
miserable life of adependentc cripple, or filling
a premature grave, the victims of bad
blood, nervousness, consumption, dyspepsia,
rheumatism, dropsy, kidney and iveE
complaints.
Each year It becomes better known and
more highly appreciated. Each day hundreds
join the happy ones who have been cured BY
its use and sing its praise. .a
We want sufferers everywhere to give It q
single trial. You will be convinced of its
merits and bless the day You first heard OF
Sagwa. All druggists sell it. 49,
If you wish medical advice free, write rs:
one of our staff of physicians will gladly
give you such information as yoa may desire.

Their knowledge Of the Cura-
tive Properties Of Herbs
considered remarkable.
A noted Professor, DR.. G. Won Spiegel Of
/. Saratoga, n. u, credits them with
many remedies used by him in effect
ing difficult cures.
Useful hints to many who suffer, where
they might enjoy the Indians pro-
verbal good health and longevity but
for the prejudice of Ignorance.

The once existing idea that no possible
good or knowledge could be obtained from
an Indian is fast disappearing.
When such a man as DR.. G. Won SpiegeI
OF Saratoga Springs, in article published
in the daily Saratogian of Sept. II, states
American Indians Kickapoos, Cheyennes,
Arapahoes, Pawnees, Apaches, Kiowas, Com
anches, etc., but to the many SO called uncivil-
lied nations of the most remote corners of
the globe for his enormous collection and
the knowledge of their virtues, of roots, herbs,
banks, gums and balsams, by whose use he
has effected the most extraordinary cures in
innumerable desperate cases, it would seem
that the world at large should no longer
hesitate to look for help from such simple
but potent agencies matter their origin
instead of dragging out miserable lives OF
sickness that is aggravated by poisonous
mineral drugs. {,
