There ought not to be such an over
whelming sense Of depression and weak
ness as a woman feels at this time and there
would not be if she was in a perfectly strong
and healthy condition. In thousands of
cases motherhood has been Invested of all
its dangers and large proportion of its
pain by the use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, which is the most marvellous
remedy ever discovered for restoring COM
p1ete organic health and strength to the
delicate special structure involved in moth
erhood. Taken early during the prospective
time it makes the mother strong, energetic
and cheerful and carries her through the
period of trial with comparative comfort
and ease. 1t increases the baby's natural,
constitutional vigor and adds to the joys of
motherhood the supreme satisfaction of .
strong, robust, lusty infant. "Favorite Pre-
scription - is also the best supportive tonic

MYSTERIOUSLY
MISSING
Ell Paso Taxpayer Has Disap-
peared From Home.
FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED
Detectives Are Looking For the Brother
Of j. w. Shepherd, A Former Real
Estate Agent In This City.-The
Young Man Owns Residence Pro-
perty On North Oregon Street.


Bruce Shepherd of Memphis, Ten.
nessee, who owns considerable proper.
ty in Ell Paso. is mysteriously missing
and his brother J. w. Shepherd
suspects that his absence is due &c
foul play.
J. w. Shepherd was a real estate
dealer in this city until last spring and
is Joint owner with his brother in three
handsome North Oregon street re-
sidences. Bruce Shepherd visited his
brother here last April.
In regard to the disappearance, the
Memphis Commercial Appeal says:
n. B. Shepherd, of Shepherd Broth
ers, grocers at the corner of Florida
and Virginia avenue, has mysteriously
| disappeared from the city. He was
last seen Monday, December 5, at
bout o'clock in the afternoon on
Front street. Since then nothing
has been heard or seen of him.
His disappearance forms one of the
most complete mysteries ever heard of
in the history of Memphis. 1t can not
be explained on any other hypothesis
than that he has met with foul play.
His prominence makes it impossibl
that he has remained in the city dur
ing the intervening seven or eight
days without having been seen by some
acquaintance.
The case has been reported to the
police, but they have been unable to
find any trace of the missing man.
One OF the detective force was aware
appeared several days befo-e
the department knew of it. J. w.
Shepherd, the missing mans brother,
on last Wednesday sent for one of the
detectives, who is his personal friend,
and laid the facts before him. The de-
tective was unable to get any clew as
to his whereabouts. Yesterday morn
ing w. S. Morse, river engineer, and
brOther-in-law of Shepherd, report
eh his disappearance TO the
P Eaenar Ha sy1g
of him. That was the first the station
house officials knew of the disappear
ance of Shepherd. Chief Richards will
take whatever steps are necessary to
locate Shepherd, il alive, or to ascer-
tain whether anything has befallen
him.
His brother, J. w. Shepherd, who is
six years his senior, was found in the
store. The Shepherd brothers have
conducted grocery business at this
placs for upward of ten years. They
are about the most prosperous retail
ers of groceries in South
Memphis, and for years have done
a thriving business. MIR. Shepherd,
when approached by the reporter, did
not want TO discuss the matter aud re-
GREETED the fact that it had gotten into
the newspapers. He said that he had
hoped the disappearance would not be
made public until they exhausted
every means of ascertaining whether
his brother is still alvie.
He had free access to the cash and
bank account of the firm, and was in
every sense half owner of the bust
ness. His brother said yesterday after
noon that if he had wanted several
thousand dollars he could have gotten
it just by the asking. He did not have
more than 800 on his person.

REPUBLICAN PARTY'S BROKEN PLEDGES.
Where IS the Prosperity That Was to Follow
the Election of William Mckinley as
President of the United States?

Where is the prosperity promised in
1886 by the spellbinders OF the Republican
party?
Where is the advance in prices OF prod
ucts and labor promised by Mckinley and
Hanna?
Where are the good times pledged
to the people If they would only repudi-
ate the free coinage of silver and de-
clare in favor of a single gold standard?
Where is the work for all' that was
predicted by the organs OF the protection
and gold-worshiping party?
Two years have elapsed since these
things We're promised the long-sufrering
farmer, merchant, miner, manufacturer
and laboring man of the country; but
they have failed of fruition. so far as the
common people are concerned.
Prosperity has come to the Hannas and
Carnegies and Elkinses and Morgans and
Rockefellers. and to their ravenous brood
of trusts and monopolies and combines.
rendered potent by the perpetuation of
a single gold standard and a protective
tariff law, but to the common people has
come only increasing taxation. decreas-
ing wages and increase in prices paid

Prosperity has come to the trusts and
tariff-benefited corporations. but the great
mass of people of the country are still
suffering under the conditions which

During that presidential campaign the
toilers of the country were assured that
all that was needed to bring good times
was the reputation of the silverites and
the election of William Mckinley. They
were told that the factories and mills
would then open, wages would rise and
there would be work for all.
Thousands of workingmen were delud-
ed by these promises Mckinley was
elected-the self-alleged boomers of pros
perity were given the reins of govern
ment.
What was the result? Spectators on
the board of trade gave wheat a fictitious
price. which benefited the farmer little
or nothing since most OF the advance
occurred after the wheat left the farmers
hands and was stored in the elevators.
Mckinley organs. however, claimed the
glory of the wheat bulge. until the bot
tom dropped out of It. since which time
they have devoted their columns to the
the glass trust. the leather trust, the
coffee trust and the dozens of other colos-
sal combines spawned and Matched by
Republican legislation.
