.DREYFUS SCORED
A POINT TODAY
Mercier Failed in His Effort TO
Prove The Captains Guilt.
CROWD CHEERS FOR DREYFUS

Rennes. August l2-The Drey-
fus court martial was resumed in
open session at $50 this morning
and continued for about four hours.
The utmost interest was manifest
ed by the crowd which completely
filled the court room.
Former President Casimir Per
Ter and General MERCER, were
the witnesses examined today.
The formers testimony was rep
etition of what he delivered at a
previous time, and was of no i'm
portance. 1t WIS supposed that
the testimony of General Mercier
would be of sensational charac-
ter, and that he would attempt to
present much evidence to prove
the guilt of Dreyfus. However,
his testimony developed nothing
that goes to show that Dreyfus was
a traitor in any sense of the word.
Toward the close of the hearing
MERCER and Dreyfus exchanged
a few sentences of conversation
the General saying that he saw no
reason to change his opinion of
Dreyfus' guilt. Dreyfus replied
that the general would be compell-
ed to acknowledge that he, Mer-
cier, was wrong.
At this point the court adjourn
ed and the crowd cheered for Drey
fus. When Mercier arose~to leave
he was Kissed and the crowd made
move as if to mob him. He was
protected, however, by the police,
and guarded until he drove away
in his carriage.

MORE MEN ARE
GOING TO WORK.
One Hundred Now Working In
Trust SmeIfers in Denver.
MANAGERS MORE HOPEFUL.

Denver, August II. About 100
men are at work in the Grant and
Globe smelters here today, Thirty
men joined the forces inside the
fences this morning, and from the
smoke issuing out of the chimneys
it is evident that much more is
being accomplished in the trust
plants than has been done since
the strike was declared two months
ago.
The strike leaders and union
men say they are standing pat, and
that assertions from their ranks
are very few. On the other hand,
the smelter managers declare they
are assured that by next Wednes-
day they will have sufficient men
at work to begin operations on a
large scale.
1t is not known whether any
furnaces were blown in this morn
ing, but the impression prevails
that the roasters were put to work.

have been o well woman. People are
surprised to see me SO well. tell them
that Doctor Hartman cured me with
Pe-ru-na. My husband is eighty-two
wears old. He takes Pe-ru-na every day
and says: DIR. Hartman and Pe-ru-na
are worth all the world to me- There
are three or four people here taking Pc
ru-na for rheumatic troubles, and like 1t
so much. There are a great many here
that use it altogether. wish every
poor soul would try his medicine"
Good blood is the result of good food,
we'll digested. Bad food, even though it
be well digested, can not make good
blood. Good food must be well digested
to make good blood. Therefore, diseased
nerves are traceable directly to poor
digestion, and poor digestion is directly
traceable to catarrh. With the slightest
catarrh Of the stomach no one can have
good digestion.
Very few of the many women who
have catarrh of the stomach suspect
what their real trouble is. They know
they belch after meals, have sour stom-
ach, n sensation OF weight or heaviness,
fullness, irregular appetite, drowsi-
ness, gnawing, empty sensations, occa-
sional pain-they all know this; but
they do not know that their trouble is
catarrh Of the stomach. II they did they
would take Pe-ru-na.
Pe-ru-na cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated. AS soon as Pe-ru-na removes ca
tarrh from the stomach the digestion
becomes good, appetite regular, nerves
strong, and trouble vanishes. Pe-ru-na
strengthens weak nerves, not by tenn
porarily stimulating them, but by re-
moving the cause of weak nerves-poor
digestion. This is the only cure that
lasts. Remove the cause: Nature Will
do the rest. Pe-ru-na removes the cause.
