Hanna Coming For Campaign
Opening at Akron.
IMPORTANCE OF OHIO CONTEST.
The Senator Considers II Will Be an
Important Test to Eapansicn-Mc-
Leans Ambition to Be Vice President
and United states Senator, Involved.

LONDON, Sept. 5.-Rejuvenated by a
and a summer visit to Europe. United
States Senator Mark Hanna returned to
London for Il few days rest previous to
sailing fer the United States on board
the American line steamer ST. Louis on
Saturday. Senator Hanna is hurrying to
Ohio TO participate in the opening of the
Republican campaign at Akron.
From a conversation with Senator
Hanna the correspondent gathered that
the Zest with which the senator is look
ing forward to the conflict i'll Ohio is
due to the fact that he recognizes that
the coming campaign will only furnish
the real answer to the question of the
couutry's endorsement of the national
administration but that behind the can
didacy of MIR. John r. Mclean for the
governorship of Ohio there is an as
plration for the second place on tine
Democratic presidential ticket with MIR.
Bryan, and. failing of election, future
contest for the United States senator
ship from Ohio. In such competi-
ton Mr.. Hanna Is anxious to partici-
pate, because it means the opening of
the national campaign of 1900
Mr.. Hanna said:
do not concede that the congressional
election in the late Representative Bland's
district III Missouri last week affords any
test of American sentiment in relation to
national issues, for the election of a
Democrat was IA foregone conclusion, and
the fact that the Democrats are calling it
test case gives ground for the suspicion
that they made the majority to suit them
selves. In Ohio. however we have an op-
portunity To make an open fight; and l
am anxious to assist all in my power in
bringing tine issGe to a successful conclu-
sion. The Republican party nationally
and locally has no cause to fear the COM
bat ON the issues as now presented.
MIR. Mclean has undoubtedly loaded his
double-barrelled fowling piece; and that
word has peculiar Ohio meaning. for in
this contest he is looking both to the vice
presidency and the United States sena-
torship which l understand has long been
his ambition. 1t is evident now that the
Democrats of Ohio, as well as Of the ma
ton, are ready to make use of the anti
expansion and free silver issues just as
General Hancock used the tariff issue in
1SS0-that is seek to make local issues of
them. They will use each cock in what
ever pit they think it will fight best, free
silver in the southwest and anti-expansion
in New England.
President Mckinley in his speech at
Pittsburg, has already outlined the execu-
tive policy of expansion. and | have no
doubt as to what we will do in congress
in supporting that policy. Bryan and
Croker have already come to an arrange
ment, hoping to secure the offices in 1900
but it is my own opinion that the Philip
pine war will he concluded and the con
gressional policy determined before the
first vote is cast in 1900.

The Egyptian never travels without
his goolah. He fills it with filtered
water and in the morning can COM
mand Il pint or more of water cooled
by evaporation through the unglaZed
clay. This precious fluid he does not
waste on unsatistied thirst. Taking Off
the long white wrap and the piece of
cloth that covers his head during sleep,
the native pours the water over his
head. neck and hands. The European,
with all his instinct for cleanliness,
seeks first to relieve his overmastering
thirst
There are in Egypt as many thirsts
as plaques, but the dust thirst is the
worst. Every pore is sealed: the throat
is lump of dry clay, aud one feels
what it must be TO be a mummy.-Lon-

NONE so POPULAR.
1t Is Daily Gianing Favor in Akron
Results Reported from People Who Have
Given Fair Trial to the Remedy.

Morrow's Kid-ne-oids, the scien-
tific kidney remedy and backache
cure, is daily gaining favor in Akron.
No medicine has ever been sold in
this city for kidney ailments, back
ache, nervousness, sleeplessness and
general debility that has gained such
popular favor as Morrow's Kid-ne-
Oids.
Mr.. ]. +. Bruot, l49 North Summit st,
Akron, O., says: 81 have been af-
f1icted with kidney and liver trouble
for number of years, also backache,
biliousness, had malaria in my sys-
tenn and was subject to spells of diz-
ziness, and was greatly troubled with
constipation. I endeavored to get
relief by using kidney pills and cures
but my endeavors were all in vain,
until commenced to take Morrow's s
Kid-ne-oids and Morrow's Liver lax,
and I felt better from the start. / am
entirely relieved of backache, dizzy
spellsand biliousness. Malaria is leav-
Ing and am greatly relieved of con-
stipation. MOrrow's Kid-ne-oids and
Morrow's Liver-laX cannot be recon-
mended too highly"
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills,
but yellow tablets and sell at fifty
cents a box.
Morrow's Liverlax are small red
granules and sell at twenty-five cents
q box.
Both remedies can be procured at
all drug stores, and at John LAM

THE RED SHIRTS.
Convicts Who Wear Them In the
Penitentiartes Of California.

There are men i'll the penitentiaries
Of California who are favored with
red shirts. but they are not made par
ticularly happy thereby.
When 4 convict has once worn the
crimson shirt. he hopes as ardently as
a convict can hope for anything that
the warden will never make him wear
it again. 1t means that he has tried
to escape and failed.
But that is not all. HencefOrth he
is a degraded man in prison circles.
His time credits are gone. Solitary
confinement, dungeons and bread and
water may be his portion. He is
pointed out and explained to visitors
and newcomers. Among the 100 con
yicts in the jute mill his req back may
be distinguished at a glance. If he be
away from there a moment, the guards
know it. Then the prison bell rings
the officers assemble, blOodhounds are
unclaimed. and the hunt begins.
Some of the red sbirters at San
Quentin are among the most daring
fellows that ever scaled n prison wall
and every man of them has run the
gantlet of guard and Gatling gun. Any
body in stripes who breaks for liberty
is liable to be riddled with lead within
30 seconds. The convicts know this,
but they also know that beyond the
gray stone walls there are green hills
and deem r1yiupS Sanu-uoSSibIy-frpp-
dom. The man who is sentenced to die
on prison cot is willing to stake his
life for liberty. His days and nights
are spent preparing for the game. If
he wins. the ICONS" he leaves behind
are jubilant, and many are the tales
of pluck and luck they will tell in
memOriam. AS rule, no class of
people stand by each other like veter-
an ICONS. Francisco Call.

LONDON, Sept. 5.-Amid the crowd
