THE DREYFUS VERDICT.
Matin and GauEois Forecast the Court of
Cassation's Action.

Cassation's Action.
PARIS, Jan. 16.-The Matin and the
Gaulois say they understand that the
inquiry of the court of cessation into
the Dreyfus case is on the point of ter
minating, and that the court will prob
ably report that acts of treason actually
occurred, but that sufficient proof of the
guilt of Dreyfus does not exist, and that
his sentence, therefore, is quashed. The
papers add that there will be fresh
courtmartial. Dreyfus, it appears, was
informed of the revision proceedings
some time ago, but he is under the i'm
preston that they are due to the initia-
tive of the general staff, and in his let
ter the prisoner thanks General Boisdef-
FIRE, the former chief Of the general staff
and his comrades of the army for the
action taken.

comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hystcrical.
The condition of the mind known as
"the blues" nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs of

age of advanced medical science, any
person should still believe hat mere
force of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and ncrv-
BUSINESS in IN These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't undcr-
stand her condition should write to
Lynn, Mass, to Mrs. Pinkham for her
advicc.G Her advice is thorough COM
mon sense, and is the counsel of a
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story of Mrs. Il. S. BENNETT,
W~estphalia, Kansas, as told in The fol-
lowing letter:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:--I have suf-
fered fof over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of rhc
womb. and this spring, being in such
a weakened condition, caused me to
flow for nearly six months. Some time
ago urged by friends, | wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for " short time,
that terrible flow stopped.

have had for the past ten years. L

ing women, do not suffer longer, when
there is one SO kind and willing to

Practitioners.

NEW YORK, May 1l.-President Michael
Murphy Of the Board Of Health has begun
an active campaign against all persons whom
he considers to come under the head OF
'faith c~urers." He has issued a letter to
the chief sanitary superintendent with re-
gard to these persons. 1t reads in part as
follows:
you are hereby requested to direct tho
assistant sanitary superintendent of the
various boroughs of this city to use all means
in their power to discover and locate per-
sons practicing medicine without diplomas.
Recent events have shown this department
that uneducated, ignorant and those WHOM
| believe to be evil minded persons, go frcn
house to house and take advantage OF their
more ignorant neighbors, protesting that
they are endowed with wonderful healing
faculties. If this system is allowed to pro-
coed great evil will result.
Sin your endeavors to suppress the prac-
tice / would suggest that you Immediately
communicate with the medical societies OF
the several counties comprising the entire
greater city and either make an engagement
to meet in consultation to advise what is
the best method to adopt or receive their
communications In writing and afterwards
adopt some broad system that the object In

Doane College Notes.

CRETE, Neb., May 11.-(Special.)-The
class in physics is just finishing the sub
ject of heat. Electricity comes next.
Freshmen in chemistry are now struggling
with the hard formulate and the peculiar
smells which characterize organic chemistry.
Messrs. Vance and Butler and Miss Porter
read theses last week before the elective
political economy class on Competition"
Protection and Socialism"
The beginning French class is translating
a history of France, committing to memory
short extracts, committing to memory ex-
amples illustrating grammar rules, while a
book of fairy tales is used from time to
time by the instructor for translation from
hearing. The class occasionally writes short
original letters and stories as French COM
position work.
Doane college has as high requirements of
admission as any college or university In
this section of the country, On this founda-
ton it builds its own superstructure.
Electives are offered In the junior and senior
years, thus providing for the modern idea of
specialization, but the freshmen and
sophomore year contains courses absolutely
required of all students. Students thus get
acquainted with more studies than where
high specialization limits the number OF
studies prescribed.
The religious work of the professors is
as follows: President Perry fills preaching
engagements in different parts of the state,
Prof. Fairchild leads the bible class in the
Sunday school of the Congregational church
and addresses a class of young men at the
| college every Sunday, Prof. Doane conducts
