HOW TO CURE BILIoUs COLO.

I suffered for weeks with collie and
pains in my stomach caused by bilious
ness and had to take medicine all the
while until 1 used Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy which
cured me. I have since recommended
it to a good many people, MRS. F.
BUTLER, Fairhaven, Conn. Persons
who are subject to bilious collie can
ward off the attack by taking this rem
edy as soon as the first symptoms ap-
pear. Sold by all druggists and deal

PLEAD NOT GUILTY.
kapea and Associates Arraigned in
Circuit cunt

=
Circuit Count
Kapea, Upapa, KaiO and George
Rathburn were arraigned before Judge
Perry in the First Circuit Court, Sat
urday morning. Kapea is charged
with murder in the first degree; the
others are accused of being accessories
before the fact and after the fact.
None of the men on trial exhibited
the slightest interest in the proceed
ings. They calmly listened to the read
ing of the indictment, and. to the argu-
ments of Mr.. Robertson on the demur-
rer, which followed. The demurrer
was based on the two counts. Mr..
Robertson held that in the second
count they were not accused Of any
specific murder as it did not state
whether or not it was man who was
murdered, or if a man, what man. He
cited Supreme Court rulings on the
question of two counts. Judge Perry
overruled the demurrer and an except
ion was noted. The charges were then
read to the four men and they all plead
not guilty Mr.. Robertson moved for
an order Of the Court to consult with
his clients. He said he had not been
allowed to do So He said he would
present the written motion after the
drawing of the jury, to save time. Mr..
Kinney announced that he would argue
on the motion.
The examination of the twelve men
who were called in the preliminary
drawing for jurors will probably take
considerable time. The examination
on Saturday was careful and exacting
There is great responsibility resting
upon jury in murder trial. The

Notes.
There was a runaway yesterday after
noon, in which two people were injured,
though. fortunately, neither was seriously
hurt The victims were Mr.. and Mrs. Jules
Demonet OF 1869 H street northwest. who
were out driving in horse and buggy.
About o'clock in the afternoon the horse
became frightened at 18th and U streets
and ran away. The brute dashed down
the hill, and at 2sth and Q streets Mr..
Demonet was thrown from the buggy.
Though he landed On the ground with con-
siderable force he was only injured to the
extent of slight cut on the mead and
general shaking up of the system.
Meanwhile the horse kept on his wild
run, Mrs. Demonet holding the reins and
endeavoring to stop the beast, but to no
avail. At 2Sth and NJ streets the horse
attempted to make short turn and upset
the wagon, throwing Mrs Demonet out and
landing her near the iron fence of the
fountain at this point. She was picked
up by Policeman Connors and carried to
the residence of Mr.. Frank Buckley, at
ZS05 NJ street. Drs. Louis and James Mac
relieved the injuries of the lady. They
pronounced her wounds very painful,
though not necessarily dangerous. Later
in the evening she was removed to her
home.

The Committees Considering and Dis
cussing Questions of Importance.
The committees of the postal congress
continued their deliberations today. The
committee having uEder consideration the
reduction or the abolition of the rates OF
compensation allowed under the present
treaty 20 each country for the conveyance
over its territory of mails of another ccun-
try in transi. to countries beyond the inter-
mediate country is engaging in lively dis
cussion, as there are 50 many confiic ing in
terests at stake. There Is said to be consid
cradle difference of opinion also among the
members of the committee having under
charge the propositions relating to the mon
ey order system. There seems to be much
objection to the suggestion to make post
offices the medium for the International
collection of money. as they are now for
the international payment of 1t, and this
objection is understood to be based upon
the argument that such a system would
seriously affect the banking system of ex-
change.
