when the inquiry was made as to his san
ity. He whistled all the time and could
not be stopped. When asked question
that could be, answered by a shake of
the head he would answer it, but other
wise he made no answer at all.
The mother of the boy said he fell from
her arms when he was years old and
his head struck the floor. That caused
him to become insane, she thinks Soon
afterwards he began to whistle, and has
kept it up ever since. He whistles any
tune he has ever heard, and when his
stock has been exhausted he makes new
ones. Most of the tunes he whistles are
made up of a medley of music he has
heard at one time another in his life.
and he appears to have remembered every
one he ever hard.

FAIR PROMISES.
Senator Edmunds Says the Monetary
Commission Will Favor No
Special Interests

Washington, Sept. Ex-senator Ed
munds, president of the monetary COM
mission, which is in session here, said to-
day concerning the scope and purposes of
the commission:
THE commission is composed of gen.
tiemen residing in all the different sec
t1ons of the country. They were not se-
lected to represent, nor do they represent
any special interest to be promoted by
whatever they may think it will be best
to do, but rather to contribute from the
principal cal1fngS of the industry and
commerce and finance of the United States
such information would be likely to
aid in reaching just conclusions and in
suggesting measures that should be bene-
hcial equally to the whole body of the
people of the country.
Naturally and necessarily it may be
supposed that particular plans or
changes In the laws would a present
either be agreed upon or even proposed
but rather that the first 1abors of the
commission will be devoted to ascertain
ing the existing condition of things as
affecting all interests of the people, and
what evils or dangers now exist. The
people of the whole country may feel sure
that the commission will do nothing and
recommend nothing that is intended to
advance any interest or class at the ex-
pense of any other whatever may be the
public opinion in respect to the wisdom
of what the commission may finally sug-
geSt to be dOne.''

ALLEGE A DEFALCATION.
Daughters of Jason Rogers, ,theEngine
Builder, Bring Suit Against
Their Brother.

New York, Sept. PA complaint has
been filed in the supreme court in which
charges of misappropriation and embez-
Element are made by Mrs. Mary J. Wes-
tonfield and her sister, Flora E. Rogers,
against their brother, Thomas Rogers, and
William Caldwell, trustees under the will
of Jason Rogers.
The plaintiffs in the suit are the daugh-
ters of Mr. Rogers, who was famous To-
comotive builder and the founder of the
Rogers locomotive works at Paterson,
and died on August 25, 1896, leaving a
very large estate.
Mrs. Westonfield and Miss Rogers al
lege that the estate has been dissi-
pated by their brother and his co-trustee,
William Caldwell, that their shares do
not produce sufficient income to provide
for them as their father wished. The
plaintiffs claim that when the trustees
accounts were approved in 1898 there was
a deficit of $213, ,4S0, belonging to the es-
tate, taken from the trust funds instead
of the amount which was approved.

no SLEEP FOR THREE MONTHS.
One Cause of SIeeplessness That Can
be Readily Overcome.

Mr.. VIM. Handschu of seth ST. Cot
ton Alley, Pittsburg, Pa, expresses him
self as follows regarding the new reme-
dy for that common and obstinate dis
ease, piles: Il take pleasure in stating
that 1 was so afflicted with piles that
for three months I got no regular sleep;
I became completely Frustrated, the
doctors did me no good; my brother
told me of the new remedy for piles, the
Pyramid Pile Cure; | purchased from
my druggist three so cent bottles and
they completely cured me. I am once
more at my work and but for this ex-
cellent medicine 1 should be on my
back. take great pleasure in writing
this letter because so many people are
sufferers from this trouble who like
myself did not know where to look for
a permanent, reliable, safe cure.
Experience with the Pyramid Pile
Cure in the past three years has dem
onStra ted to the medical profession, as
well as to thousands of sufferers from
piles, that it is the safest and most eff
fectual cure ever offered to the public,
containing no Opiates or poisons of any
kind, painless and convenient to han
die and being sold by druggists at 50
cents and 81 per box, is within the
reach of every sufferer
Very frequently two or three boxes
have made a complete cure of chronic
cases that had not yielded to other
remedies for years.
There is scarcely a disease more ag-
gravating and obstinate to cure than
the various forms of piles and it is a
common practice to use ointments,
salves and similar preparations con-
tanning dangerous poisons to remove the
trouble. The Pyramid has superseded
all of these Intellectual remedies and no
one suffering with any rectal trouble
makes any mistake in giving the Pyra-
mid a trial.
If in doubt as to the nature of your
trouble send to the Pyramid Drug Co.,
Albion Mich. for valuable little book
on piles, describing all forms of the dis
ease and describing the method of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure as it is the best known
and most popular remedy for piles and
if you ask him he can doubtless refer
you to many people in your vicinity
who have been cured completely by it.

REsTLEssNEss OF WOMEN.
Women in the West Disappointing 30
Annie Besant.

New York, Sept. 2A-.The restlessness
of the American woman resolves itself
into mighty problem, which the people
of this country will have to solve sooner
or later said Annie Besant to reporter
yesterday.
II noticed this more particularly among
the western women during my recent
travels throughout the west. What
causes it?' I should say If is caused by
the growing superiority of the women to
the men. I do not observe this so much
in the east, because the men have higher
intellectual aims. But in the west the
men are forging ahead very much as the
pioneer Americans did, but in earlier
times the women We're also absorbed in
work, side by side with their husbands.
Now il is different. Then too, the wo-
men were more spiritual than they are
at present. The intellectual forces are
now more active and, the men have
not the time to give to intellectual ad-
vancement, they are not in sympathy
with it. The result is sure to tend to-
ward the gravest sort of disorganza ton.
This is felt first in the home, and later
it will leave its impress on the nation.
II met the most charming women i'm
aginab1e in the west, and they seemed to
reach out toward Theosophy in a most
encouraging manner, but they were dis
appointing because they did not live up
to the hopes they inspired in me. Every
where 1 observed a distaste for study
and a sad lack of mental concentration.
I think Theosophy and it's teachings
would be genuine stronghold for the
American woman; however, if she will
not study, she cannot possibly grasp its
great meaning and thereby be benefited
by it,. The trouble is caused by the spir-
ituaI decadence and her tendency to
grasp the material side of things,
t'Then- there is the great and growing
independence of women and their desire
for what they call liberty. This. coupled
with .materialism, is lowering the stand
ard and the result will be greater social
license, because women do not seem to
feel the responsibility that might be ex-
pected of them. When men set the stand
ard for women and held them to to it, the
standard was higher, strange as it may
seem.''

MULES TO THE REAR.
Big Eastern Mining Firm Will substi-
