A POPULAR MISTAKE
Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia
and Indigestion.

The national disease of Americans is in
digestion, or, in its chronic form, dyspep-
STA. and for the very reason that it is so
common many people neglect taking proper
treatment for what they consider trifling
stomach trouble, when, as matter of fact,
indigestion lays the foundation for many
incurable diseases. No person with Wig
orous healthy stomach will fall a victim to
consumption. Many kidney diseases and
heart troubles date their beginning from
poor digestion; thin, nervous people are
really so because their stomachs are out of
gear; weary. languid, faded out women owe
their condition to imperfect digestion.
When nearly every person you meet is
afflicted with weak digestion, it is not sur
prising that nearly every secret patent
medicine on the market claims to be a cure
for dyspepsia, as well as a score of other
troubles, when, in fact, as DR.. Werthier
says, there is but one genuine dyspepsia
cure which is perfectly safe and reliable,
and moreover this remedy is not patent
medicine, but it is a scientific combination
vegetable essences, fruit salts and bismuth.
1t is sold by druggists under name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. No extrava-
giant claims are made for them. but for in
digestion or any stomach trouble Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are far ahead of any
remedy yet discovered. They act on the
food eaten, no dieting is necessary, simply
eat all the wholesome food you want, and
because all the stomach needs is rest,
which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give by
doing the work of digestion.
Druggists sell these tablets at SOC per
package. Circulars and testimonials sent
free by addressing f. A. Stuart Co., Mar

TWELVE-CLUB SCHEDULE
NO RADICAL CHANGE IN THE Ma
TI0NAL LEAGE NEXT SEASON.
Magnates Adjourned without Acting
on the Eight-CIub Proposition
No Exhibition Games.

NEW YORK, Dec. 17.-After a pro-
longed session, or, rather, a series of ses-
sions, the baseball magnates representing
the twelve clubs in the National League,
concluded their annual meeting tonight
and adjourned to meet again on the last
Tuesday in February, which is the date of
the schedule meeting 1t was decided that
a tweve-club schedule, calling for 154
games, should be arranged for next season
and the secretary was instructed to draft
two, one for three trips East and West and
the other for four trips each way. In addi-
ton to tits Mr. Whitehead, of Philadelphia,
received similar instructions and he has
been requested to furnish copies of the
schedules prepared by him to the presidents
or representatives of the twelve clubs two
weeks before the schedule meeting in Feb
ruary While these instructions to the sec
rotary and Mr.. Whitehead ostensibly indi-
cate that the playing schedule has been ar
ranged and that the League will consist of
twelve clubs during the season of 1899, there
are many persons who claim to have an
inside knowledge of the state of affairs,
who believe that underlying all this there is
a well-defned scheme to reduce the League
to eight clubs. A twelve-club League has
been found to be too unwieldy, and it is
the consensus of opinion that an eight-club
League is essential for numerous reasons.
Under the constitution of the League, spe-
cial meetings can be called at any time and
1t is expected that one or more sessions will
bc held between now and February.
The Philadelphia gate receipts controversy
was taken up again to-day, but, as there
was no chance of a unanimous vote being
cast in reference to it, the matter was laid
until the February conclaVe.
No league clubs will be allowed to play
exhibition games during the coming season,
and a motion made by President Hart, of
Chicago, to prevent them from playing Such
games before and after the season was neg
atiVed.
Complaints having been made by news
paper reporters that they were not admitted
to some of the baseball parks during the
past season. the following resolution was
adopted by the meeting;
Resolved. That the president OF the
league be authorized to issue TO baseball ed
itors of the daily papers In the twelve

STILL SOVEREIGN.
Chinese Consul General Says His EN-
perOr Has Not Been DepOsed.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Dec. 1.-THE
Chinese consul general in this city in an
interview said: 1--WE have had no official
notification of any changes whatever which
have occurred in the conduct of our empire,
but the very absence of any such advice
appears to us conclusive that the Emperor
is still our sovereign and that the tales afloat
which represent him as impotent and pow
erless with the scepter wrested by violence
from his hands are without any basis" The
consul general declares that the dowager
Empress is not opposed 10 progress. and
states that the consulate here has just re-
ceiy;ed orders looking to the establishment
of a complete system of education for the
Chinese.

UNWARRANTED ALARM.
Supposed Counterfeit Silver Dollars
Found to Be Genuine.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17-Regarding the
rumors which recently have been given cir
culation through the Southern-Central
States pointing to the circulation of large
amounts of counterfeit silver dollars, Chief
Willzie, of the secret service, to-day said:
"Circumstantial reports of the receipt by
banks, railroad and express agents and
others, of these coins have attracted atten-
tion particularly in the vicinity of Memphis,
Tenn. About six weeks ago. when it was
reported that counterfeit dollars had made
their appearance at Hollywood, Miss,
agents of the secret-service division of the
treasury made careful investigation and
were shown a number of the alleged coun-
terfeit coins, and in each instance they
proved to be genuine About week ago
these reports were revived at Memphis and
secret service agents were again detailed
to investigate. They took the stories in
circulation. and, one by one, ran down ali
of the alleged appearances of spurious coins
at railway stations. banks, stores and ex-
press offices. Not single counterfeit coin
was discovered in the course of the inveS-
tigation although hundreds of coins de-
scribed as counterfeit were seen and
handled by the agents.
THE suspected coins were minted at New
Orleans bore the date of 1890, and evidently
have been stored in the vaults of some bank
for long time, as, IN appearance they are
practically new. The report that hundreds
of them had been refused by Chicago banks
and local banking institutions at Memphis
were found to be without foundation. One
Memphis banker admitted he had declined
to accept one hundred of the coins in ex-
change for currency but in the particular
instance referred to the refusal was based
on the fact that the person who asked the
exchange was not a depostor in the bank.
None of the railroad agents who were said
to have been stuck with the spurious coins
had ever seen them.
IAN ex-counterfeiter in that section of
the country had endeavored to get a num-
her of people to buy counterfeit coins from
him. and submitted these genuine coins as
samples of what he was able to manufac-
ture. but this undoubtedly was simply
part of a bunco game"

Shot While RObbing a Freight Car

home suffering from a pistol shot which
passed through his stomach. He was taken
to hospital, where he died without making

was afterwards arrested, a lot of stolen
goods being found in his house. Deering
was forty-five years old, and previously bore

Now He Wants $4,000 from the Man
Who Gave Her Carriers.

CLEVELAND, o.. Dec. 17.-George z.
worthington, secretary of the Forest City
Stone Company, brought suit to-day
against Fred NJ. Nicholas for $4,000 for
alienation of his wife's affections. Mrs
Worthington was Miss Mamie Stewart
daughter of VIM. C. Stewart president Of
the Forest City Stone Company. All move
in the best society. Mrs. Worthington
brought suit for divorce last July, alleging
nonsupport. Worthington claims that since
June, 1896, two years after their marriage,
his wife has shown q marked preference
for the society of Nicholas, even refusing
to go to the theater unless he was taken
along. He also alleges that Nicholas pre-
scented Mrs. Worthington with a paiv of
garters fastened by silver buckles which
contained miniature photographs OF Mich
olaa.
