NO CHANGE IN POLICY.

the Next Democratic Platform.

MFR. Bryan Sounds the Keynote For
the Next Democratic Platform.
Milwaukee, April 1.-THE Jefferson
club, Of Milwaukee, observed the natal
day of the founder OF Democracy by a
banquet at the Plankington House last
night, attended by over 400 guests.
Colonel William J. Bryan, of Nebraska,
was the guest of honor, and delivered
tho principal address. Delegations OF
Democrats were in attendance from
many towns throughout the state and
nearly all the Democrats from the
state legislature we're present. Among
the other speakers we're ex-senator
John L. Mitchell, Mayor Harrison Of
Chicago and Mayor Rose of Milwaukee.
In the course of his address Mr.. Bryan
said:
1--WE are now near enough to the
next campaign to be able to form some
idea of the lines along which the con-
test will be fought, and l am taking
no risk when / say that those who in
1896 gave their allegiance to the Chi
cago platform are as united today in
the determination that no step taken
in 1896 shall be retraced. Suggestions
that we abandon the money question
sometimes come from those who de-
serted the party in 1896, but those
suggestions are not supported by evil
dence tending to show that the posi-
tion in 1895 was wrong, but was pred
icated upon the theory that the issue
upon which the party once lost can
never be revived, and what seems
most strange, this argument is made
by those who have followed a different
course in the past"

witnesses Identify Several of the NJ en-
on Trial.
Charleston, S. c., April 14.-A num-
Der of witnesses testified for the gov
ernment in the Lake City lynching case
yesterday. M. B. Springs returned to
the stand for cross examination. He
had sworn that Stokes told him of the
plan to kill Baker and asked him to
join the mob 1t was shown he had
been a member of the coroner's jury
which brought in a verdict that Baker
came to his death at the hands of UNI
known parties. He said he was afraid
to tell the jury what he knew about the
case.
George Jeffords testified that Joyner
one of the defendants, told him there
were only nine men at the lynching
and that Mcknight, another defendant
killed Baker
Henderson Williams, a negro, swore
he went towards the postoffice while it
was burning. He met seven men COM
ing away from it. They had guns, and
he recognized Epps, a defendant,
among them.
Another negro said he was with
Williams and recognized Webster,
Ward and Alonzo Rodgers, all defend
ants, in the party of lynchers. These
two witnesses swore before the coro-
ner they knew nothing about the crime.
They said yesterday they we're afraid
to tell the truth at Lake City.
The defense has seventy odd wit
nesses they will put on the stand. The
theory of the defense is that Baker
was killed by men from the country
near Lake City. Alibis will be set up
for each defendant.

THE movement Of the Supervisor
yesterday in starting to take the mud
from Main street was a commendable
one. There are still tons of mud and
dirt on our streets that ought to be
scraped together and carted away. 1t
is the accumulation of last fall and
winter and soon under the warm sun
will be converted into dust and blown
into the houses and breathed into the
lungs of the people. AS sanitary
measure clean streets are an absolute
necessity. With streets covered four
to six inches deep with dust every
little breeze sets clouds ladened with
disease-breeding germs ahoat which
penetrate the open doors and win
dows of our homes to the annoyance
of the tidy housewife as well as to the
detriment to the health of the com
munity.

Havana, April 14--The Cuban gen
erals yesterday afternoon waited upon
General Maximo Gomez officially and
informed him that they desired him to
represent the army in any negotiations
with the United States military au-
thorities in Cuba. General Gomez ac-
cepted the trust, after which all waited
upon Governor General Brooke to dis

The original rolls of the Cuban
army were delivered to Governor Cen

cArARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, Safe but Enectual Cur,
for it.

Catarrh Of the stomach has long been con-
sidered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloated
sensation after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery risings, forma-
tion of gases, causing pressure on the lungs
and heart and difficult breathing headache,
tickle appetite, nervousness and general
played out and languid feeling
There is often foul taste in the mouth,
coated tongue, and if the interior of stomach
could be seen it would show Shiny, in
famed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
disease is found in a treatment which causes
the food to be readily and thoroughly di-
gcsted before it has time to ferment and ir-
ritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the
stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy digestion
is the one necessary thing to do, and when
normal digestion is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the safest and
best treatment is to use after each meal
tablet composed Of Diastase, Aseptic Pepsin,
little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit acids.
These tablets can now be found at all drug
stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets and, not being patent medicine,
can be used with perfect safety and assur-
rance that healthy appetite and thorough
digestion will follow their regular use after
meals.
Mr. N. j. Booher. of 2710 Dearborn st,
Chicago, ILL.,, writes ''Catarrh is a local con-
dtion resulting from a neglected cold in the
head, whereby the lining membrane of the
nose becomes infamed and the poisonous dis
charge therefron, passing back into the
throat, reaches the stomach, thus producing
catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities
prescribed for me three years for catarrh of
the stomach without cure, but to-day l am
the happiest of men after using only one box
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. 1 can not find
appropriate words 10 express my good feeling
have found fesh appetite and sound rest
from their use.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
preparation as well as the simplest and most
convenient remedy for any form of iudiges-
tiou, catarrh of the stomach, biliousness.
sour stomach, heartburn and bloating after
meals.
Send for book, mailed free, on stomach
troubles, by addressing the F. A. Stuart Co.,
Marshall, Mich. The tablets can be found at
all drug stores.

Fatally Shot by a ManIac.

Vineland, N. j., April 14-Charles G.
Lamb last night shot his servant girl,
Lizzie Fisher, and shortly afterward
cut his throat and died almost in
stantly. The girl received one bullet
in the back of the head and another
in the hip. She will die. The girl on
being shot ran screaming from the
house, followed by Lamb. A neighbor
came to her rescue, and Lamb returned
to the house and cut his throat. No
cause is known for the act other than
that Lamb became suddenly deranged.
The girl says he gave her a news
paper and commanded her to read it
to him. She was about to do so when
he began shooting.

PROFESSORS DISAGREE
As TO the Food vaIue OF Meat Fur
nishcd tho Soldiers.

n
nIshcd tho Soldiers.
Washington, April 14.-Dr. w. D.
Bigelow, chemist of the agricultural
department, told the Wade court of In
quiry yesterday that the canned beef
was a wholesome and nutritious pro-
duct-even more nutritious than fresh
beef, because of the preponderence OF
proteids He also gave the details OF
his general investigation into the can
ned beef supply, showing the meat TO
be a generally satisfactory ration He
considered the beef extract stimulant
rather than a nutritive. The meat left
after its extraction, he said, would be
nutritive, as the proteids would be left.
Whether, however, it would be palat-
able would be a matter for each in
dividual to decide for himself. Prob
ably it would not be an ideal food.
Canned roast peef was preferable to
bacon as q food for the soldiers.
Professor Mallet, professor of chem
istry at the University of Virginia
presented a contrary view. He ex-
pressed the opinion that a chemical
analysis was not a sufficient test OF
the character of food product, say
luB IudI NdIlOuS tbuulllOnb hOCOSoe1i ~
must be considered. A combination OF
horse flesh, tallow and carpenters glue
might give practically the same re-
suits as those reported from the ex-
animation of the canned roast beef
In determining the food value of a
ration 1t was necessary to consider
its digestibility, capacity for absorp'
ton, its adaptability TO chemical
changes and also, secondarily its pal
atability. 1t was also necessary to
know the possibility of the injurious
effects of any food article upon the
body. Considering all these questions
Mr.. Mallet did not believe the canned
beef supplied to the army in the Span
ish war a proper article of food. He
related that the experiment had been
made of feeding to hogs the residue oil
beef after the extract had been made
from it, which had resulted in the
practical starvation of the hogs.
