Inc results oi recent Investigation have
established, beyond question, the great value
of the new preparation for indigestion and
stomach troubles it is composed of the di-
gestve acids, pepsin, bismuth, Golden Seal
and similar stomachics, prepared in the form
Of 20 grain lozenges pleasant to the taste,
convenient to carry when travelling, harmless
to the most delicate stomach and probably
the safest, most effectual cure yet discovered
for indigestion, sour stomach, loss of appetite
and flesh, nausea, sick headaches, palpitation
Of heart, and the many symptoms arising
from imperfect digestion of food. They cure
because they cause the food to be promptly
and thoroughly digested before it has time to
sour, ferment and poison the blood aud ner-
vous system.
Over six thousand people in the state Of

OPPOSED TO CLENENCY.
The Effort to Save One Of the Ma
vassa Murderers
NOW SERVING A LIFE SENTENCE.

Baltimore Omcia1s Declare That There
Is No Valid Reason For Executive
Clemency, Despite a Petition which
Has Been signed I'm a Dozen States.
Baltimore, Dec. S1.-United States
Judge Morris, ex-District Attorney
Thomas G. Hayes and District Attor-
ney William L. Marbury have declined
to approve q petition asking President
Mckinley to pardon Henry Jones' one
Of the colored Navassa rioters, serving
a life sentence in the Kings county
penitentiary at Brooklyn N. Y.
Jones and two other colored Navassa
laborers, George S. Key and Edward
Smith, alias Devil" were convicted
Of murder in the first degree in Balti-
more in December, 18S9 for killing
white officers on Navassa Island dur
ing the memorable riot in September
of that year. All three were sentenced
to be hanged, but In each case the sem
tence was commuted by President Har-
rison to life Imprisonment.
The petition asking the pardon of
Jones was sent from the department Of
Justice at Washington to Baltimore to
obtain the opinions of the judge and
district attorney who tried the case and
the present district attorney. 1t was
returned with the opinions of those
officials forcibly expressed.
Mr.. Hayes, who tried the cases as the
governments prosecuting officer, stated
in the letter giving his views that sew
eral Of the white officers on the islands
were brutally murdered after they had
surrendered to the colored laborers
and had been promised protection.
mo provocation was shown for the
murder" he continues, "and in my
opinion there never occurred a more
willful and cold blooded murder than
that by the colored men on Navassa
Island of their white employers. Moth
ing has occurred since to justify me in
recommending any leniency."
Judge Morris, who sat in the cases
with the late Judge Bond states that
he concurs in every word of the state
ment of Mr.. Hayes.
District Attorney Marbury who has
become acquainted with the case by
reading the testimony states that in
his opinion it is mot a case for fur
ther executive clemency, and the
granting of q pardon would be call

The petition has about a thousand
signatures. The signers include resi-
dents of Baltimore, New York, Brook

direct. The hog-pen supplies the cause,
and the fever, or some disease closely
allied to it, is the effect.
1t has taken long while to convince
even the most intelligent settlements
of the value of scientific sanitation, and
in the large cities it is constant fight
to abate nuisances and compel people
to observe ordinary laws of cleanliness.
But in the villages it Is much worse.
The populations cannot see the neces-
sity Of the new-fangled notions, as they
call them, and any interference of
board of health is an outrage and an
impertinence. We know of villages
where the doctors have been laboring
in vain for years to eliminate the hog
pen. Their efforts are ridiculed, and
the hog-pens and the fevers. which
would never exist but for the unclean-
illness, remain.
After awhile the people of these small
places will see the Importance of diff
ferent policy. When they realize that
the existence of hog-pens in n COM
munity will keep away all settlers
whose presence would be desirable, and
when they see their property depreciat-
ing in value because no one wants TO
live in villages where no attempt Is
made to prevent disease, but everything
is done to encourage it, they may find
it to their advantage to send the hogs
TO the country, and then the health and
welfare of the whole nation will be i'm
proved.-Leslie's Weekly.
