The grand jury began delving ,uto

sacrificed his bank, his family and
friends. She is graceful, slender, of
medium height and does not show her

plexion, and sparkling black eyes. rs

thought so little about it that she did
not know the part of the State or name
of the county in which it was located.
Many OF her answers were so absurd
the juIymep roared with laughter.
1t is cot improbable that some Of the
trustees of The State University may

the several persons and the officers OF
corporations who borrowed more than
10 per cent. of the capital stock of the
bank.
The grand jury made several itqui-
res IL regard to the transactions Of

GET down TO CAUSES.
Marietta People Reason Easily and
Consistently Nowadays.

In former times liniments and p asters
sold over all internal remedies, because
people mistook effects for diseases, and
attacked PAIN where they found 1t.
Temporary relief convinced them that
they were right, and so they laid return
of the pain to a return of the complaint
when in fact the disease was there all
the time. Backache is not an aching of
the back, but an aching ofthe kidneys,
and remedies must reach the kidneys
and be perfect in their work at that,
before permanent relief Is secured.
Doan's Kidney Pills are perfect in their
Work and permanent in their cure. A
backache gives way at once because the
kidneys resume their normal functions
and there is nothing to ache There is
nothing so hard to combat as the evil
dence ofour senses, and yet all who re-
lieve us on the suhjec. of backache are
glad they did because of the cure"

Texan convict named Snodgrass with
pair of shop scissors. One thrust OF
the scissors blade made two-inch
slash just over the heart, second

Hale stabbed him three times more in
the hip and leg. The Texan may die.

things that are in dispute between the
two governments. If he didn't he

1t has often been said that there is
no limit to democratic audacity, and a
new proof of the assertion may be
found in the change of the democratic
stories about Senator Hanna. Having
ascertained that all of their attempts
to split the Ohio repu ublicans into Han
ma and anti-Hanna factions had miser-
ably failed, and that Mr.. Hannas elec-
tion to the Senate was assured, they
are now unblushinglv saying that Mr..
Hanna is to be elected because the
democratic members of the Ohio legis.
lation refused to enter deal with the
republican mem bers alleged to be op-
posed to Mr. Hanna for the purpose of
electing some other republicans to the
Senate. If Lying will get them out, the
concocters of these stories will never
remain in hole long. But really isn't
this sort of thing disgusting to decent
men, regardless of their politics?
