ON THE ROCKS.
Steamer Geo. w. Elder
Has a Mishap.

Tacoma, wn., March 3O.-Steamer
Cleveland arrived at Tacoma today di-
rect from S1aguay with news of
shooting ARRAY in Skaguay March "a,
the day the Cleveland sailed, in which
two men were killed in a saloon or
dance hall and a third man shot in the
leg in the same resort. The shooting
occurred but a few hours before the
vessel sailed and particulars were not
obtainable. 1t is said that the men kill
ed were bound for the gold fields.
The Cleveland passed the steamer
George w. Elder, from Portland for
Skaguay and Dyea with a very large
number of passengers on the rocks in
Tongas narrOws last Saturday night.
The bow was quite a distance out of
water and the stern deep, but not sub
merged.
The steamer Resale was standing by
the Elder and assistance was refused
from the Cleveland. 1t was not known
how seriously the ship was damaged,
but it is hoped to f1oat her at high tide.
The Elder belongs to the Pacific Coast
Steamship company.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
THE NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY
TESTED.
Results in the Tests of Various Forms
of Dyspepsia

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia,
while a very common trouble, has for
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as a serious thing, and that
no time should be lost in treating it
properly at the start, because recent
researches have shown that the most
fatal and incurable diseases have
their origin in simple dyspepsia or in
digestion.
Diabetes is simply one form of indi-
EestiOn. the sugar and Starchy food not
being assimilated by the digestive or
gans. In Bright's disease the albu-
men is not properly assimilated-
While consumption and dyspepsia are
twin diseases, and it is beyond question
that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for
the seeds of consumption
But the trouble has been to
find a remedy that could be depended
upon to cure dyspepsia, as it is motor
aously obstinate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which has
puzzled physicians and dyspeptics
alike, until the question was solved
three years ago by the appearance of
new dyspepsia cure in the medical
Tablets, which it was claimed was as
a certain, reliable cure for every form
of stomach trouble.
Physicians, however, would not ac-
cept such statements without first Civ
ing the new remedy many tests and
carefully observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section Of
the country and with surprising and
satisfactory results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
honestly claimed to be a specific, a rad
1cal lasting cure for Indigestion in the
various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour
stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too
much bile, undue fullness or pressure
after eating and similar symptoms re-
sulting from disOrdered digestion. Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets were not
placed before the public until the three
years trial left no doubt as to their
value and they have recently been
placed in the trade and can be found
on sale at all druggists at the nominal
price of 50 cents per package.
No extravagant claims are made for
the remedy. 1t will not cure rheuma-
tism, pneumonia, typhoid fever nor
anything but just what it is claimed to
cure and that is every form of stomach
trouble.
No dieting is necessary, good whole
some food and plenty of it and you may
rest assured that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will digest it.
Druggists claim for it that it is
pleasure to recommend it to dyspeptics
because it gives such universal salts

details have been. received here by the
Santa Fe railway of an attempt to hold

TO GIVE AWAY THE FOURTH
Populist and Democratic Quarrel
Gives the District to Republicans.

Populist and Democratic Quarrel
Gives the District to Republicans.
The Populist and Democratic confer
ence committee appointed to settle the
question of fusion in Fourth congress
sional district held a meeting at En-
poria Monday night, but seem to have
failed in accomplishing anything defin-
lite in that direction.
The committeeman refuse to inform
the public as to what was done, evil
IDENTIFY expecting that the intuition of
the voters of the district will enable
them to understand what action has
been taken.
1t is generally believed that the COM
mittee failed to accomplish single
thing which may be regarded as a So
luton of the present tangle- 1t was
agreed, so it is said, that the Demo
Gratis must take the defensive by hold
ing their convention first and nominal
ing their candidate, then make a can
vass OF the district prior to the Popu-
list convention, going before the latter
and taking his chances on securing the
nomination. AS the POpulistS are for
John Madden and the Democrats for H.
S. Martin, the prospects for such re-
suit are by no means flattering.
AS a matter of fact the result of the
conference indicates at this time that
there will be two candidates in the neld
notwithstanding the statements of COM
mitteemen that harmony will prevail
With the POpulists and Democrats
supporting separate candidates the eIec-
ton of a Republican is a foregone con-
clusion. Since the Populists have prac-
tically refused to make any concessions
to the Democrats it is believed that the
Democrats will punish them by reIuS-
ing to stand by their candidate and at
the same time assure the election OF an
opposition candidate.
The members of the committee were:
Thomas Morgan, Eureka,J- L. Cochrane'
Cottonwood Falls and A. J. Eastman,

Gratis. The Populists were o. O. Out

HETTY GREEN ANGRY.
Proposes to Paddle Joseph Choate
With a Slipper.

New York, March 3O.-Nrs. Hetty Green
visited the rooms occupied by the naval
auxiliary board in the army building yes
terday. and, addressing the clerk who re-
ceived her, said that she wished to enter
a protest against allowing Commander
Stayton of the naval reserves of Brooklyn
to retain his office in case of war She
Ra5d that he had sued her for $4,000 for
legal services rendered, and from that she
inferred that he was not a safe man to
be intrusted with state secrets. lest he
should tell them to the Spanish. She
also said that Joseph H Choate was an
other bad man. and that the next time
she saw him in front of a Methodist
church she intended to spank him with
a satin-lined slipper
Mrs Green's animOsity toward Mr.
Choate was old story to the clerk but
he did not understand her attack on Com
mander Stayton- He told her that the
auxiliary board had nothing whatever to
do with the naval reserves.
The suit for $50. 900 was brought about
year ago. The amount was awarded a 5
a Just fee by a referee in case Mr.. Stay
ton conducted for Mrs. Green several
years ago. The case involved an expendi-
ture of $4,000, 900 during a period of thirty
years, and the lawyers notes on the case
filled 1000 pages The referees decision
saved Mrs. Green nearly $1,O000OO.

murder and the lynching of one of the cul-
prits. On Friday Alexander Loin, a farmer
living across the river at Madrid Bend,
which is partly in Fulton county, KY, and
Lake county, Tenn, hired two negroes,
names unknown, to row him across the
river. They murdered the farmer. robbed
him of s12 and then threw the body into
the water.
Friday night about dark the negroes ap-
preached a store at Bessie Tenn about
five miles from the scene of the murder
and wanted to buy some clothing. The
clerk noticed that the clothing they wore
was stained with blood. He became sus-
picious and attempted to arrest the negroes
They fed but one of them was captured
Saturday evening near Bessie and taken
to the scene of the murder. where he soon
confessed being implicated in the killing,
but said the other negro did the murderous
deed. The negro was made to go into the
water and search for the body of LON,
but he was unable to find it,
The negro was taken back to Bessie,

GEN. M. G. BUTLER
Held Another Conference With Presi-
dent Mckinley Yesterday.

Washington, November 29-Major- Gem
eral NJ. c. Butler had another conference
with the president today concerning af-
fairs in Cuba. In interview he said:
Since the American commissioners have
been in Havana about 10000 soldiers have
been sent back to Spain. Thirty-two
transports will soon arrive and take away
from $4,000 to 10000 more. The remainder
will depart about the first of January or
soon afterward.'
General Butler said that it was hard to
tell how many Spanish soldiers were on
the island to become citizens. At one time
decree was issued permitting some to
make their homes in Cuba, but this was
withdrawn, General Butler added a good
word for the Spanish soldiers He says he
has never seen a more orderly or better
behaved body of men. He saw thousands
of them every day and never witnessed a
disorderly act. General Butler says that
nobody could approximate the time when
this country could turn things over to the
Cubans.
He had found the Cubans bright and
well educated. He believed that many
Spaniards would soon join with the Cubans
and take part in the affairs of the island.
