A BarbarOUS Surgical Operation.
For the Cure Of Piles.

1t is not only intensely painful, dan
gerous to life and very expensive, but in
the light of modern medical research and
since the discovery of the Pyramid Pile
Cure a surgical operation is wholly un-
necessary. If you have any doubt on
this point kindly read the following let
ters from people who know that our
claims regarding the merits of Pyramid
Pile cure are borne out by the facts.
From N. A. Stall, Ridge Road, Niagara
Co, N. Y: ] received your Pyramid
Pile Cure and tested it last night. 1t
did me more good than anything have
ever found yet, and remember this was
the result of one nights treatment
only.
From Penn w. Arneit, Batesville,
Ark: Gentlemen:-Your Pyramid Pile
Cure has done me so much good in so
short time that my son.in-law, Capt.
7. J. Kline, of Fort Smith, Ark, has
written me for your address, as he wishes

LIEUTENANT Won HAHNKR.

Emperor William Of Germany brought
back with him after having been absent
for Il cruise on his royal yacht. 1t is
said that Lieutenant Won Hahnke, who
is alleged to have struck the blow, com
mitted suicide.
Numerous versions of the story are
current. One has it that the kaiser
spoke insultingly of the mother and sis
ter of the young officer in the latter q
presence and that the lieutenant fioored
the young war lord with prompt and
vigorous punch on the imperial eye, inn
mediately escaping and blowing his
brains out with revolver
Another version is that the kaiser
reprimanded the lieutenant for riding a
bicycle around the deck Of the royal
yacht and followed this up with a tor
rent of abusive language, all in the
presence of knot of officers. Won
Hahnke is said to have retaliated with
blow before his brother officers could
hustle him away and induce the emper.
or, who was crying wildly for his as
sailant's blood, to go to his cabin. This
story ends with the release of Won
Hahnke from the yacht after he had
promised to kill himself. 1t tells how
he lay hidden for ten days in PEASANTS g
cottage and finally jumped into lake,
from which his body was recovered.
OF course there have been official de-
malls in plenty. The kaiser's black eye
was caused, it was given out, by a
swinging block on boom, and the lieuten.
ant was said to have fallen from his bi,
cycle whilo riding along the top of q
cliff.
AT any rate, the kaiser had black
eye and Won Hahnke is dead, The lieu
tenant was a member Of an old and in
huential family, his father being Gen.
eral Won Hahnka chief of the kaiser's
military cabinet

al years there acquiring knowledge Of
eastern languages. He came back to Amer
lea and was graduated from Williams col
lego, after which he took up the study Of
law. In 1S40 he joined the rush of gold seek
ing prospectors to California, where his tai
ents speedily brought him to the front. He
was elected q member of the FIRST legisla-
ture of the state and took a leading part
in molding the laws Of the new common
wealth, framing civil and criminal code
remarkable to this day for its comprehen-
siveness and liberality. This work has
had lasting influence upon the interests
of the state and remains monument to
his mental greatness.
In 1857 he had become one of the leading
lawyers on the Pacific slope and was elected
to the state supreme bench, of which he be-
came chief justice In 1868 he was ap-
pointed by President Lincoln to his pres
ent position. Two attempts have been
made to kill Justice Field. In one in
stance he received an explosive machine
sent by some land squatters whom he had
caused to be elected, and in another Judge

him, Terry being shot by deputy United

prayer. The familiar announcement
"Let us pray" is never heard from his
pulpit. He does not believe in public
prayer and has said so ON several occa-
sions. DR.. Roberts was asked to give up
one church because of his views ON this
subject, and he cheerfully did so rather
than admit that prayer in public was
proper.
Dr. Roberts is man Of about 40 and
was born at Fredonia, o. His father
was a Baptist minister, and when John
Emerson was cd enough he, too, was
trained for tho ministry. He was grad
uated from the theological department
of Shurtleff college with the degree of
doctor of divinity and was ordained a
Baptist minister in Carrolton, Ills. For
six years he preached total immersion
and the rest Of the creed, and then he
decided that the teaching of orthodoxy
was not in his line. He withdrew from
the Baptist denomination and in 1885
founded a liberal church at Grand Rap.
ids He remained there for two years
and then went to Kansas City, where
he had occupied Baptist pulpit, to ac

Horatio ID. Davies, the newly elected
lord mayor of London, is the six hun

for that Office for the English metropO-
lis selects new man every year. Dur
ing his short administration the only
time at which he will cut any consider

takes the chair and oath of office. This
will occur ON Nov. and will be made

On that day the official elect, arrayed
in all his gorgeous robes, rides FORT

heads the curious procession which
makes up the show. His chariot is an
antique vehicle built in 1867 and
weighing four tons. Behind him come
the aldermen and other city officials
and then the guilds with banners and

some, for there are several others in the
arena. Among them are General Lew
Wallace, Governor Mount and Congress-
man Steele
Mr.. Taylor was recently appointed
member of the monetary commission
and was chosen vice president of that
body. He has been for years promi-
nent lawyer and politician Of Indiana,
and his senatorial ambition is by no
means new one. Mr. Taylor was born
in Chillicothe, o., in 1888, but has
been resident of Indiana ever since he
was years old and citizen Of Fort
Wayne since 1869. He was admitted to
the bar in 1860 and was judge Of the
court of common pleas from 1868 to
1870. In 1871 he represented Allen
county in the lower branch of the legis-
lature. On the election of General Har-
rison to the United States senate in
1881 Judge Taylor succeeded him as a
member Of the Mississippi river COM
mission, and he has held that position
ever since. He has given much time to
the study of the problems connected
with the improvement Of the river and
his published papers and addresses on
the subject are regarded as most impor-
tant contributions to its literature.
In the Republican caucus Of the
present year Judge Taylor was a candi-
date for the nomination as United
States senator, but was defeated by
Charles w. Fairbanks. He submitted
gracefully, but then announced that he
would be candidate again. He is by
no means novice in politics, for, while
he has had busy and successful legal
career, he has always taken an active
part in the spirited campaigns in In
diana and has the reputation of being q
good political general.

If he is not mistaken, his discovery is one
of the most valuable contributions to the
science of healing made in many years.
Professor Sanarelli has lived for several
years in Montevideo, and about IS months
ago he began to study yellow fever. His
researches and experiments were carried
on in the Sanitary institute of the capital
of Uruguay He spent months in culti-
