The man with consumption used to be
considered just as good as dead. His doc
tors condemned him to death Just as surely
as if he had been convicted of murder
and must die on the Scaffold at dawn.
All that has been changed. There is
now no reason for the consumptive to
despair. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery will cure 98 per cent. of all cases
of consumption. That is a startling state
ment, but a true one. Consumption is fed
by impure blood. II is an accumulation
of impurities in the lungs. If the blood
Is made pure and filled with the purify
ing properties of the Discovery" there
is nothing to replace the tubercuious mat

Gradually the lungs become free and
clear. the lung lining becomes sound and
healthy, and the disease is conquered.
Then begins the process of flesh building
and soon the hollow cheeks are full, the
step is firm and elastic, and health blooms
in every feature and in every action.

Horne

John Kennedy Found Unconscious Near His
Home.
Kansas City, Mo, Jan 2S.- John
Kennedy, twice tried for train
robbery and acquitted at the last
trial. was found lying senselsss in
the roadway not far from his home
tonight. His horse had slipped on
the icy pavement and thrown him
heavily, rendering him unconcious-
A policeman stumbled over the
body, aud rang for an ambulance
When Kennedy was taken to police
headquarters the police were aston
ished to find that he was wearing
false whiskers, carried a lantern,
had black mask in his pocket,
wore q 45 caliber revolver and car
ried shotgun, which he had taken
apart. When he recovered consci-
BUSINESS, Kennedy refused TO talk
further than to say that he was
going hunting, The police are
holding him for investigation, but
they do not know what charge they
can place against him Kennedy
declared that the horss he rode be-
longed to Ed Eylar. a liyerymaD,
but Eylar says the horse is Ken
nedys The animal is of good stock,
just the horse for long ride across
country. Kennedy was accused OF
robbing the Chicago and Atoms st.
Louis express on thu night of
Thanksgiving Eve in 1896, and of
the robbery of the same train on the
Christmas Eve following. The evil
dence against him was very strong,
The engineer POSITIVELY identifying
him. But on the first trial the jury
disagreed and at the second trial
the jury acquitted him. There ia
still an indictment hanging over
him and on this he may be tried |
At both trials Kennedy had plenty
of mon ey for his defense. 1t was
generally admitted that the first
Alton robbery Melted the robber,
whoever he was, at least $4,000.

The democratic party does not
expect to lose its next fight, but il
success is to be obtained at the
sacrifice of principle they prefer to
lose. A party courageous enough to
cast aside the powerful leaders who
pleaded for any kind OF concession
at Chicago and enter a national
campaign without the promise Of a
dollar or the likelihood of obtaining
enough funds to legitimately con-
duct its campaign is beyond the
reach of the corrupting influence
which is suggested by the present
ton of Tammany's Mayor for Presi
dent.-K. @. Times.

HAVE NO CANDIDATE.

For the benefit OF our esteemed
contemporary we wish to say that
The TIMES has no candidate for Cir
cult Judge. nor for any other Office,
| in district or county. We believe in
fair play, however, and that true and
| loyal democrats should have equal
standing before the party for nomi-
nations. This treatment is being
denied one of the candidates for
circuit Judge by that paper. Under
the cloak of party loyalty it has
singled out Mr.. Graves for slaughter,
pretendedly basing its opposition on
his attitude on the money question
before the party had officially de
clared on that issue. That paper
we'll knows that number of gentle
men are now seeking democratic
nominations who were as pronounced
in their opposition to the ratio
adopted as was Mr.. Graves, and yet
no reference is made to them directly
or indirectly through it's columns
Would not this smack of an Interior
motive, to the thoughtful. even if
that papers bitter aud uncompro-
missing hostility to Mr.. Graves was
not well known in this county If
either Mr.. Smith or Mr.. Silvers, the
