A DRAMATIC INCIDENT.
A Lecturer Discovers His Danger
 and Loses His Life.

upon the system before the victim is aware It is nearly as hereditary as consumption, quite as common and fully as fatal. En- tire families, inherfting 1t from their an- cestors, have died, yet none of the number knew or realized the mysterious power which was removing them. Hundreds of people die daily by what is called heart disease, apoplexy. paralysis. spinal cons plaint, rheumatism, pneumonia and other common diseases, when in reality 1t is Bright's disease Of the kidneys. These are solemn facts, but all the more serious because of their solemnity
 There has never been but one remedy known for the cure of Bright's disease, or even for it's relief and that remedy has be- come the most popular of any preparation known to the world. It is Warmers Safe Cure. It has taken men, and women, too. who were in the lowest stages and restored them to perfect health and strength. It will invariably check the first stages of this terrible disease, if taken in time. It Is indorsed by physicians, approved by scient- ists and used by the best people in the land. It is a scientific preparation and owes its popularity wholly to its power. It can be procured of any reliable dealer, but great care should be exercised to secure the genuine and not permit any unscru- pulous dealer to sell anything in its place.

HOME MARKET CLUB.
Annual Meeting Held Yesterday Cues
 ton of Expansion Considered.

Boston, November 16-The annual meet ing of the Home Market club was held to- day. Col. Albert Clarke, secretary of the club, in his annual report, considered the question of national expansion from an economical standpoint, and said:
 sIt is greatly to be hoped that President Mckinley will so frame his treaty of peace with Spain as to minimize the dangers and responsibilities which we must assume as the result of the war.
 '"On October 10, at the quarterly meeting of our officers, all the New England states being represented, there were many strong expressions of personal opinion against the policy known as national expansion, and there was no expression in its favor. Some think our opposition is because ex- pansion and protection will not be good yoke fellows. That will depend upon how the new acquisitions are treated.
 "If they are helped to independence, as I think they should be, are governed as colonies, as those not able to govern them- selves ought to be, if the constitution will permit, tariff may be maintained between them and the United States which will reasonably protect both and at the same time give reciprocal preference. But if they are annexed and made a part of our country the provision in section s, article of the constitution, that all
 
 form throughout the United States and the provision in section 9 that no tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any state which has been held to apply also to territories, may have the effect to practi- cally introduce free trade in such articles as sugar, tobacco, hemp, friuts and various ores and all ther goods produced in the an- nexed regions and as it is impossible to bring working people in thes countries up to the American standard, their annexa- tin would seem to impose upon our indus trial population unrestrained competition under ill-conditioned coolie labor.
 'If we must have an expansion policy and it must take a form of annexation and territorial government, how can the party which has always favored protection to American labor ever again look a work ingman in the face?
 "We do not oppose, but we favor the finding of foreign markets We are gain ing them constantly. Hitherto the con- quest has been peaceful. The best of them are in countries which are self-governed and for which we have to assume no re- sponsibility and are at no expense"

THE SOLDIER
 HIGHWAYMEN
Bold Attempt at Robbery Was
 Rolled.
THE MISCREANTS ARRESTED
Claimed to Be Members of Third Miss issippi Volunteers-Judge Feagin Bound Them Over to Await
 Action of Grand Jury.

Two white men giving their names as E. W. McManus and s. w. Lee and claiming to be members of the Third Mississippi voi- unteers, were arrested yesterday morning about S:sO o'clock in the yards of the Kan sas City, Memphis and Birmingham rail- road on the charge of attempting to com init highway robbery.
 About o'clock Robert Cummings, who is employed at the union depot, and Willie Williams, another negro, were on their way home on the North Highlands. As they were crossing the Kansas City yards they claimed they were approached by two sol- diers and ordered to hold up. One of the soldiers, they say, presented a pistol. The negroes immediately took to their heels and, returning to the city, reported the matter to police headquarters.
 Shortly after 3 o'clock Elias Latham, night billing clerk in the Kansas City de- pot left his office and walked towards Twenty-first street in the yard on business connected with the road. He carried a lantern and a pistol. AS he was walking down the yard he saw two soldiers and a man dressed in citizens clothes approach. One of the soldiers was tall and the other small and MT. Latham kept an eye on them, as they fit the description as to height of the men who have been operat- ing in the city during the past few nights. As MT. Latham came near he says that the men separated so as to allow him to pass between them and when almost upon them he says one of the men ordered him to stop" Being on his guard, he cov- cred the smaller man with his pistol and ordered him to throw up his hands. At this juncture the taller man and his com panion made themselves scarce and at the point of his pistol MT. Latham marched his prisoner to the freight house. where he turned him over to Charles Smith, another clerk. He hastily told whSt had happened and accompanied by Henry Moulwin, car knocker, started in pursuit of the other men.
 Near the corner of Twenty-first street the other soldier was seen, moving rapidly off in the dark. MT. Latham ordered him to halt, but failing to obey he fired his pistol into the air which had the desired effect and the soldier was taken into custody. He was marched to the freight house.
 Both men were excited and said that they had arrived in the city about o'clock on the second section of the train bearing their regiment from Lexington, Ky, to Albany, Ga. They claimed that their train left them and that they were trying to catch a train on the Central Railway of Gepr- gia to overtake the regiment
 MT. Latham and his fellow employees did not put much confidence in the tale and mo- tified police headquarters of the arrest and the soldiers were sent for and locked up.
 Yesterday morning Cummings and Will Hams identified them as the men who at- tempted to hold them up.-.-~ .. : They were both arraigned before Judge Feagin in the inferior criminal court and held to await the action of the grand jury in the sum of $200 each.

It is a scene in the lecture room of a medical college in New Orleans. The pro- lessor is featuring before an intelligent class of medical students. He is describ- ing the human body it's defects and the danger by which 1t is surrounded. In order to illustrate 1t he has fluids from the hu- man body which he is subjecting to chem ical tests.
 "Gentlemen,'' he said, "I have described to you the appearance of the human fluid in a diseased state; will now show you how the same fluid appears in a healthy state," and he subjected his own to the test. As he held 1t up to the light for moment, his hand trembled, he caught his breath, he paled and exclaimed: Gentle men, have just made a most horrible dis covery; I myself have Bright's disease of the kidneys
 In less than one year he was dead.
 The above dramatic and strictly true in- cident shows the terrible danger and mys- terious nature of this modern disease, which may well be called the demon of the present century. It steals into the system like a. thief, manifests it's presence by the commonest symptoms and fastens itself

Ward 6 XOkes

For Friday night Ward and Vokes and their big farce comedy troupe of thirty-two people will present their variety farce ''The Governors" This announcement is in itself a full guarantee of a good time to patrons of this house, but the efforts which have been made to present high class enter tainment and organization are worthy of extended notice. These favorite fun-mak- CTS have for the past four years toured the country and each year they have endeay- ored to surpass the previous one in their efforts to present high class farce. "The Governors" employs the services of thirty two people and is presented with all special scenery and an investiture of wardrobe sell dom accorded to anything less than comic opera or a big extravaganza.

Negroes Charged With Murder

Coffeyville, Kas., November 16-Two tough negroes living in the Indian Terri tory have been arrested charged with the murder of Nathan Sheffield, wealthy stockman whose body was found on the railroad track south of Coffeyville on Mon- day. One of the prisoners confessed, im- plicating several others in the murder. He says that Sheffield was murdered in a corn crib and the body hauled to the point where found. An old grudge seems to have been the motive. Sheffield was well known. Excitement over the affair is intense and the prisoners have been removed to Vim tta, I. T.

~THE PLAYe

William H. West, whom no one will ever be cured of calling Billy" at one time the ideal stage dancer, and now the most pro- gressive of minstrel magnates, is a thor ough cosmopolitan. Broadway, New York, is no more familiar to him than is the Lon don Strand; the Boulevard des Capucines, Paris, or the Corso in Rome, and he saun- ters up to the clerks desk at the Hotel de France in St. Petersburg or the Byzance in Constantinople with as much uncon- cern as at the Waldorf-Astoria, in New York. Nor has he travelled as nasty tour ist, seing nothing but the regulation sights. He invariably brings back some peculiar knowledge as the result of his searching observations. For example, MT West who is to be here on Thursday night, with the William H. Vests Big Minstrel Jubilee, was speaking the other day of the future of the American negro, in whom he nat pean experineces served to point a moral
 Negro minstrelsy, that is to say min strelsy as represented by the genuine darkey, is dead and buried,' he said with cnviction. We have tried three forms of minstrelsy in this country-the negro, the white, and the combination of the two It has been a survival of the Attest. The burnt cork artists, composed of the best male talent, drawn from every form of the drama and aided by scenic art and orches- tral music of the highest order, live and I believe, are just entering upon the day of their greatest development Now what are all those colored people to do who have felt tinge of that equality that came with their stage experience, What are all the young colored people to do who were born in freedom, been educated in good schools, yet find that the barrier existing between black and white has never been entirely broken down in this country? Colonize them in Africa, say some Set apart a state for them here say others, or Cuba or Hawaii. Now let me tell you the best plan. Let them all go to Paris. Jnsa

 Senator Fairbanks is growing in popular favor as well as in statesmanship. The mantle of Morton and of Harrison fits him, as our Hebrew friends sometimes say, Hike the paper on the wall," and we here and now predict that in the year 1904 he will go into the national republican convention with a solid delegation from Indiana behind him for the presidential nomination.

outright. There is an annexationist party growing up here and there are those who believe that once we have established our selves there, we will never let go. They say openly that they believe that Cuba will be brought to see the advantages to be gained, to be educated up to it, in fact and that the leaders of the Cubans within year or so will consent to our permanent occupation There are not many men who will openly talk this way; they do not care to go on record just now, but there is some reason for the fear expressed by Gomez that this country may not be willing to let go, once the island is under the thorough garrison of American troops.
