Through the financial embarrassment
ofithe board OF directors Of the West
Virginia penl,en,lary at Moundsvllle,
CAUSED by the failure OF the state egis-
latlre to provide for the deficiency In
tho current expenses, sensational pub
locations have appeared in IA number OF
papers, generally outside OF the stnte,
where the true situation was not
known. and where the wares OF scnsa-i
,ion7i aad untruthful correspondents
would IND q market. Here Is one OF the
worst specimens OF this ra-sensation-
,allsm-actually! approaching untruth-

Special Dispatch.
WHEELING, W. Va. Jan. 1s.--There
Is a very good prospect that the prison.,

TO be turned loose or kept In the instl-
tuition and starved. All the money ap-,
pfoprlated for the maintenance OF the
prison was exhausted January l. Since.
then the prison, has been run with sup
piles OH hand, but-these are also eS-
haustcd. Warden Hawk and the trus-
tees ore unwilling 10 borrow or ad-
vance money and take chances OF the
next legislature repaging them. There
are thousands OF dollars lying In the
state Treasury, but none of II has been
appropriated and II can not ba spent. A
hurried meeting of. the state board of
public works has been convened at
Charleston, and the board may ar
range with bankers. The governor re-
fuses TO call special session OF the
legislature. which will cost 500 0Oe. The

In the face OF repeated warnings by
state officials causes all the trouble.
When Warden S. A. Hawk was shown
the above masterpiece OF exaggeratlon
and fabrication. he smiled and said:
ITO relieve the public, I will state that
the penltentiary will neither close It's
doors 10 incoming prisoners nor turn
the inmates loose for want OF funds to

business at the old stand. The last leg

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the New Discover,
for CurinR Dyspepsia.


The Rev. y. I. Bell. a highly esteemed
minister residing in Weedsport. Cayugu
county. NJ ", In recent letter writes as
follows: There has never been anything
that have taken that has relieved the Dys-
pepsia from which have suffered for ten
years except the new remedy called Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. Since taking them I
have had no distress at all after eating
nnd again after long years can sleep we'll.
Rev. F.. J. Bell. WeNisport, ". y, for
mcrly Idalia, Colo
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablsts ia u remark
able remedy, not only because It Is a GER
tain cure tor all forms OF indigestion, but
because 1t seems 10 act as thoroughly in
old chronic cases OF dyspepsia as we'll as in
mild attacks OF indigestion or biliousness.
A pcrwon has dyspepsia simply because tho
stomach is overworked all it wants is
harmless, vegetable remedy to digest tho
food and thus give IL the much needed rest,
This Is the secret of the success OF this
peculiar remedy. No matter how weak
or how much disordared the digestion may
bc. sStiIart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
tho food whether the stomach works or NOT.
New life and energy is given not only to
the stomach but 10 every organ and nerve
IN the body. A Trial Of this splendid medt-
cine Will convince tho most skepticai thnk
Dyspepsia and all stomach troubles can %
cured She tablets are prepared by the
y. A.. Stuart COMPANY Of Marshall. Mich.
but 80 popular has the remedy become that
stiart's Dyspepsia Tablets can now Be
obtained at amy drug store at 80 cents par
package. Send for book on stomach as
cases free.
