A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the New Discovery for
 Curing Dyspepsia.

The Rev. F. I. Bell, highly esteemed minister residing in Weedsport, Cayuga county, N. Y., in a recent letter writes as follows: There has never been anything that I have taken that has relieved the Dyspepsia from which I 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, and again after long years can sleep well. Rev. F. l. Bell, Weedsport, N. Y. formerly Idala, Colo.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a remark able remedy, not only because it is a cer- tain cure for all forms of indigestion, but because 1t seems to act as thoroughly in old chronic cases of dyspepsia as well as in mild attacks of indigestion or biliousness. A person has dyspepsia simply because the stomach is overworked. All 1t wants is a harmless vegetable remedy to digest the food and thus give it the much needed rest
 This Is the secret of the success of this peculiar remedy. No matter how weak or how much disordered the digestion may be. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food whether the stomach works or not. New life and energy is given not only to the stomach, but to every organ and nerve in the body. A trial of this splendid med- cine will convince the most skeptical that Dyspepsia and all stomach troubles can be cured. The tablets are prepared by the F. A. Stuart Company of Marshall, Mich, but so popular has the remedy become that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can now be ob- tained at any drug store at 50 cents per package.

HAD LIVELY TIME.
Provost Guard Arrested More Than 100
 Men at Huntsville.

Huntsville, November 15.-(Special.) )-Iast night the prvost marshal on duty in the city had the liveliest time since the sol- diers came here. and the result of their h. bors were one hundred more arrests. Seventy-five guards were on duty at all times, companies l. and M of the First in- fantry being. assisted by two troops from the Second cavalry and a company from the Sixty-ninth New York.
 One prisoner, Private Glaser of the Six ty-ninth New York, was not crestfallen after his arrest and after being placed in the guard house in the basement of the Madison county coure house, set fire to the floor and famed up quite large blaze. The fire was discovered before it had spread very far, and was put out after the arrival of the fire department. Glaser's of- fense is very serious, and he was turned over to the civil authorities and placed in jail.
 Many rumors of killings were anoat but none of them had any foundation in fact. A rumor that a negro had been killed with hatchet at the Nashville, Chatta- nooga and St. Louis depot proved to be founded on fight between two negroes. in which Jeff Cohen, colored, was hit on the head with hatchet.
 A negro came near being lynched late last night after attempting to pick a sol- dier's pocket.
 More regiments will be paid today, and anticipating unusual disturbances, Mayor Murphy last night requested General Wheeler to add fifty men to the city pro- vost guard. The request was granted.

THE SENTENCE
 WAS FIVE YEARS Robert Taylor Got Term Oi ImpriSOn-
 ment. HIS FINE FIXED AT $100.00 Charged With the Murder of N. A
 Thompson. IF TIIRNEn STATES EWOENCE
HIS FINE FIXED AT S1OO.OO
HE TURNED STATES EVIDENCE
During the Trial He Disappeared Sud- denly, Only to Return as Mysterious ly Several Weeks Afterwards
 Notes Brothers Did Shooting.

In the United States court yesterday, William Robert, alias Bob Taylor, who turned states evidence against his com- panions in crime, charged with the murder of w A. Thompson, a government witness, was brought before Judge Toulmin and sen- fenced to five years imprisonment in the United States penitentiary at Raleigh, N. C., and fined $1OO and costs.
 The murder of Thompson occurred on March 14 last, near his home in Talladega county. The unfortunate man was return- ing home from attendance upon the United States court in this city as a witness against several of his neighbors, including his two sons-in-law, who were charged with illicit distilling. AS he was passing lonely spot in the mountains he was fired upon by a party of moonshiners, who lay in wait for him. He made desperate struggle for his life, begging his assailants not to kill him. As he lay helpless upon the ground vita his lifeblood ebbing away, one of his sons-in-law placed a pistol near his head and sent a bullet speeding into his brain. His body was discovered two days later, and although suspicion rested upon the guilty parties no evidence could be obtained to warrant arrest. A few months later the case was put into the hands of Special
 
 who arrested Chess Notes, Bob Taylor, John Littlejohn and Dodger Blankenship, charging them with the crime. The men were brought to this city and taken before United States Commissioner Wilson for a preliminary hearing. During the trial Bob Taylor took the stand and voluntarily made a statement, confessing the murder and im- plicating the other defendants, as well Walter Notes and Jasper Robinson, who were in the court room as witnesses.
 Who Did Shooting
 In graphic detail he told the story of the bioodcurdling murder, stating that Chess and Walter Notes had done the shooting, while the others looked on. Walter Notes and Jasper Robinson were immediately ar- rested and on being arraigned pleaded mot guilty" as did the other defendants, all being held without ball. The United States grand jury, which met few weeks after, returned a joint indictment against the six men, who were arraigned for trial at the September term of the district court. On this trial Taylor entered a plea of guilty
The age-herald., 1898-11-16

and being government witness was placed under the rule. He was allowed the liberty of the hall in the government building, hav- ing been placed in charge Of Special Agent Bell who assisted in the prosecution. The trial of the other men lasted for sev- eral days, and on the fourth day when Taylor was called as a witness, he failed to respond, and diligent search failed to locate him. The prosecution was placed in a peculiar predicament by the sudden turn of affairs, but in lieu of his oral testimony offered in evidence Taylor's written testi- mony given before the commissioner.
 Attorney Cowart made desperate effort to prevent the introduction of this evil denee, but Judge Bruce held it competent, and the trial proceeded.
 Another Sensation
 Another sensation was sprung in the case after Taylors disappearance, Chess Notes, another of the defendants, taking the stand and making a confession. Notes clairned that the murder had been com mitted by Taylor himself being present at the time and having previously planned 1t. He exhonorated the other defendants, who maintained their innocence. After nine days the case was given to the jury, which returned a verdict of guilty.
 Before adjournment the convicted men were brought before Judge Bruce who sentenced them to ninety-nine years inn prisonment in the United States peniten- tiary at Raleigh. N. c.
 No trace was found of Taylor until about four. weeks later, when he sent for Captain Bell and surrendered to him at his home in Talladega. where he had been in hiding since his escape from the court house. He was brought back to this city and placed in the county jail to await sentence His light sentence was due to the fact that he turned states evidence, although no in- ducement was held out to him to do so.
 Judge Toulmin yesterday granted a stay of execution of the sentence in the case of Chess Notes and the other defendants pending an appeal to the United States supreme court on a writ of error now pending

Runaway Team

A pair of horses attached to a fine hack belonging to Officer Patton of the police department ran away last night in Twen- tieth street. The driver left them standing near the depot, and, taking fright at passing train, they started off at break neck speed. Near the corner of Third avenue the hind wheels of the vehicle struck a telephone pole, breaking the tongue loose from the hack, which was badly demolished. The horses then con- tinued their mad rush up the side walk to Fifth avenue, where they again turned into Twentieth street.
 ? The hack was an expensive one, having cost about $1 ,000

SUPPOSED ROBBERS.
Two Men Arrested Answering Descrip-

r Yesterday afternoon about o'clock two awhite men, giving their names as Moran and Hand, and answering the description of the highwaymen who have been operat- ing in the city, were arrested by Officer Mullen near the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham railroad yards, in Ninth ave- nue
 They both claimed to have just arrived in the city from Tennessee, and denied em- phatically that they were in any wise con- nected with, the hold-ups. They were taken to police headquarters and many of the parties who have been held up were sent for, but failed to identify them and they were released.

Russia Hoaraiug Gold.

Financiers want to know why Russia
is accumulating such an immense store
of gold. and certainly the question is moi,
without interest to the politician. A
huge gold reserve implies that a grea,
war will not lack the necessary sinews.
Why should Russia, who already pos
sesses larger stock of gold than any
other government, keep on addingto her
store of the precious cola? 1t is two
years since she began her accumulations,
and appal emily she has no Intention of
stopping them. for the latest arrival of
gold from the Cape has been wholly
purchased for Russian account. Yea
with a stock on hand already reckon ID
at SI2o. 900 900, the need for this pur.
chase is not very apparent A signifi-
cant feature Of the case is that whenever
notice is called to these Russian gold
purchases they cease for a while. only
to be resumed as sooa IS public atten.
ton is turned another way-Notting.

The statement made by the News this
morning that Denver papers liberally
support the celebrations in outside towns,
and declaring as unjust the accusation
to the contrary, will receive hearty
amen from Boulder at least. Nothing
could be more enthusiastic than the sup.
port Denver papers gave Boulder enter
prises on any and all occasions. The
Chautauqua could not have been more
l,berally boosted editorially, telegraph.
cally and locally had it been Denver
enterprise. The attendance from Den
yer has at times not been heavy, but on
occasions it has almost equalled in
one day the attendance from Boulder at
the carnival during the entire week,
v hich BY the way is larger than from
any town in the state. With no partic.
ular desire to laid Denver to the skies.

deserves. aud the manner in which it
supports state enterprises and celebra.
