What nobleT, better ambition can a young
couple have than to live loving, helpful
lives, and then, in a green old age, look
back over q life that has been mutually
self lfsacri6cing, useful and successful? The
one great stumbling block that stands be-
tween most married couples and this ideal
married career is iil-health. If both hus-
band and wife would take proper care of
their health, there would be more hale,
hearty and happy old people in the world.
If, when a man suffers from the little ills
of life, he will resort to DR.. Pierce,s Golden
Medical Discovery, the chances are that he
will avoid the big and fatal illnesses. This
great medicine gives q man healthy
hunger, facilitates the flow of digestive
juices, invigorates the liver, 'purifes and
enriches the blood and builds firm, muscu-
lar, healthy flesh tissue.
II is an old saying that women are hard
to kill. There is some truth in this, as far
as the majority Of illnesses are concerned,
There is one class of disorders, however,
that quickly undermine any woman's gem
era1 health. No woman can retain her
strength who suffers from weakness and
disease of the delicate and important or
gans that make wifehood and motherhood
possible. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton is an unfaiiing cure for all disorders
of this description. It acts directly on the
sensitive organs concerned, in natural,
soothing way. 1t makes them strong,
healthy and vigorous. It prepares them
to bear the burdens of maternity. Il is

who uses it will bear healthy, happy child

After two months of desolation. the
Biiou was alight again yesterday even

inch of room in the auditorium, as OF
yore. The show given, was. in most re-
spects, excellent. though three or four
of the minor acts proved conclusively the
difficulties to be met in booking SO early
in the year. Forester and Floyd con-
tributed the first number on the program

John T. Tierney provoked the house to
continuous laughter by the presentation
of some novel matter Of his characters

real break in the settled bad humor oil

served hearty commendation. Emma

FooTPAps IN HOWARD COUNTY
Five HfEhwaymen Pursue n Car
riage Near EllicOtt City.

Ellicott City. Nd. Aug. .1e.-Sunday
night about 10 o'clock as Mrs. Adolphus
H. Trueheart and her daughter, Miss
Blanche Trueheart. and Mr. Joseph Egan
were returning here from the Catonsville
street cars in a carriage they had an en-
counter on the p:kes near the Skinner
farm. with five footpads. The young son
of Mr.. Charles Z. Eagan. who had been
conveyed to the terminus, was also a pas
senger. The travellers were very much
frightened by the persistence with which
they were pursued as they whipped up
their horses on becoming aware of their
danger. It seems that two of the des-
perate men had stationed themselves In
a secluded place. and as the team passed.
sprang toward it as if to get in the car
riage These two were unable to do this.
and called TO their confederates. who
were some distance ahead, to hold up the
team. Mr.. Egan applied the whip as
three other men appeared in front of him
in the way and then all five of the foot
pads, two of them some distance behind
and three keeping up with the team,
made desperate efforts TO stop the car
riage. The object Of the attack was
doubtless robbery.

fighters. especially when they fight for
their own. ,.
Notwithstanding. the siege began to so

day by day. At one especially exposed
point, known as La. POr1illo, the Spaa-

French concentrated upon it the fire Of a

She was luckier than her great proto-

Nicaragua Canal.

Senator's Discuss Expansion and the
Nicaragua Canal.
Washington, Dec. 13-Territorial ex-
pansion and the construction of the
Nicaragua canal occupied the attention
of the senate during the greater part
of yesterday. AS soon as the routine
morning business had been disposed of
Mr.. Vest called up his resolution Of
fered last week declaring it to be un-
constitutional for this government to
acquire foreign territory except for
coaling stations or some like purposes,
unless its intention was to confer state
hood upon the territory and citizenship
upon its inhabitants. Mr.. Vest declared
that 1t was basic principle of this
government that 1.-The powers OF the
government were derived from the con-
sent of the governed" and maintained
that the federal government had no au-
thority either in morals or in the con-
stitution to SO beyond that principle.
Mr.. Plat. of Connecticut. took issue
with Mr.. Vest, and announced that at
some convenient time in the near flu
ture he would offer some remarks upon
the resolution, in the course of which
he would endeavor to show that the
Missouri senator was wrong in his in
depreciation of the constitution and in
accurate in his deductions from the
law. Senator Morgan opened the de-
bate On the canal bill with three
hour appeal for action at this session.
The whole country, he said. would be
disappointed IL congress did not act.
He was willing To take any measure
which would result in the building Of
the canal.
The house spent the larger part Of
the day on District Of Columbia af-
fairs. The bill to relieve the condition
of American seamen was taken up,
but nothing was accomplished.
