Brave Men Fall

Victims to stomach, liver and kidney
troubles as well as women, and all feel the
results in loss of appetite, poisons in the
blood, backache, nervousness, headache
and tired, listless, rundown feeling. But
there's no need to feel like that. Listen to
j. w. Gardner, Idaville, Ind. He says;
"Electric Bitters are just the thing for
man when he is all run down, and don't
care whether he lives or dies. 1t did more

Big Profit on Vessel Property.

Shipping men are interested in the re-
port that Sawyer Bros, the builders at
Milbridge, have been offered s65, 600 for
their new four master, which cost but
$4,000 to build. A profit Of $4,000 on
ship property, the vessel men say, is de-
cidedly unusual.
One of the reasons for the great advance
is the increase in the prices of all materials
over those paid at the time the craft was
in the stocks, but the scarcity of and de-
mand for vessel property are the principal
causes for the unprecedented offer.

1t is frequent intercourse with those
who hold different views that can alone
make us mentally healthy and sound.
We want the fresh air of another and a
dissimilar mind to invigorate and stimu-
late our own; otherwise we grow puny
and distorted, each settling down in his
own petty groove, and imagining that
the whole universe is therein contained.

FACTS FROM TALLUTA.
Secretary of Italian Embassy Re-
turns From Louisiana

turns From louisiana
WASHINGTON, Aug 9-Marquis Ro-
mano, secretary of the Italian embassy,
arrived here today from Louisiana, where
ne has been making a personal inVestiga-
ton of the lynchings there, and reported
at the embassy to Count Vinchi, the Itali-
an charge daffaires. The two went over
the marquis trip, much personal observa-
ton being given in addition to the facts
stated in the formal report
Marquis Romano laid special stress upon
the point that his information was not
drawn from Italian sources or friends
of the dead men, who might be biased in
their feeling, but that all his findings
were the result of information from
American citizens living near the scene
OF the lynchings. The Italian authorities
regarded this as relieving the report from
the charge that it is an exparte state
ment from prejudicial sources
AS to the citizenship of the victims the
1nd1gs of Marquis Romano are that all
five were Italians. But as to this the
Italian authorities concede that in view
of Gov. Fosters report that three Of the
men were naturalized Americans, the mat
ter is open to doubt, and is yet to be
established beyond all question
Acting Secretary of State Adee gave
some time today to going over Marquis
Romano's report, which is in Italian, and
was read by Mr.. Adee before being turn
ed over to the translators.

went into effect at noon today, when tho
communicates held a meeting in defiance
Of the prelate. On last Sunday the decree
was read in every church in the Belle

attended meeting the members of ST

several months, or ever since the an
pointment of Father Cluz as rector, in on
position to the wishes of the congreea

cans. About 600 persons fall under the
ban.
The Stars and Stripes and the Irish flag
hoated from Flagstaff in the yard of ST
Patr1cks church, where the meeting to-
day was held. About the church was

Fastened to the front gate was an open
cigar box on which was tackled a card
bearing the words:

contributions to be used in maintaining
the fight against Bishop Jansen.
Neither Bishop Jansen nor any repre-
sentative of his appeared at the church
and, after waiting for some time, those
assembled dispersed, with the exception
of a small guard. The parishioners were
told to meet again tonight, when thew
will be given specific information touch

ton, 1t is declared, is that the leaders of
the so-called rebels have all the time
been in communication with Mgr. Marti-
neli, the papal ALLOCATE at Washington.
A member of the parish has been in
Washington. Tuesday a telegram was
received from him which read: Hold
fast. Disregard the accommodation.

IN New York Police Court She Seems
to Be Nearing Her End.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9-Magistrate Cor
nell shook his head sorrowfulIy in the
Jefferson Market police court when Bet
tina Girard was brought 20 the bar. The
policeman said he had found her in a
helpless condition at Thirty-sixth street
and Sixth avenue. Though sober when
brought into court, she could scarcely
stand, and was on the verge of deliriIm
tremens
When Magistrate Cornell committed her
to the island for three months 1t was
the opinion of many that she would not
live that long. Her face was bruised and
her eyes were black from having fallen
on the stones. Her clothing was old, tat
tered and torn. -T(,
Eettina Girard was committed for five
months to st. Xavier's sanitariunl at Inn
wood in 1898. On her release she took
steps to establish her legal status as the
widow of Arthur Padelford and her right
of dover in his estate of $500, 000 Padel-
ford was the son of a wealthy Philadel-
phian. He obtained a divorce from her
ten years ago. She has been in various
institutions for alcoholism, and only last
week was sent to Bellevue hospital. She

Much grumbling is heard in Manila
because American silver is not received
at the custom house, nor is American
gold or bank notes. The existing GUS
tom house regulations require that all
customs shall be paid in Philippine cur
rency. This leaves 10 option for Of
ficials, but as long as there is a change
or fiuctuation in the relative values of
gold and silver any official who accepts
in any unauthorized currency is liable
to be called upon to pay the difference
out of his own pocket. The postoffice
on the other hand, will not accept cur
rency which is compulsory at the Gus
tom house unless the stamp buyer is
willing to be penalizel heavily Manila
papers say the situation thus caused
is most ridiculous and intolerable, and
regulations must be modified quickly.

Mexican Government Fully Posted
as to Their Movements.
AUSTIN, Tex, Aug. "a dispatch from
Durango, Mex, says that Manuel Lopez
Serena, instructor in the service of the
Federal Telegraph company, has lust
reached that city from the Yauui reser-
walton. He says the government is in
better shape to wage a successful cam
pa1gn against the rebellious tribe now
than in any Of the previous wars There
is hardly point in the turbulent terri
tory that is not In direct telegraphic
communication with the war department
and every move that rowing bands of
YaQuis make is instantly known to the
military authorities, and the movement
OF troops is directed accordingly. Con-
tnuing Senior Serena says:
THE war department is informed as
to the position of every warning Indian
band In the Yaqm valley, and troons
now being massed along the lower course
of the river will strike at the vital point
when the order is given. The present up-
rising has been expected for over a wear
The first information of the contemplated
outbreak was given Gen. Torres by the
OLD Yaqm chief Tobiate, several months
ago, and Immediately thereafter the work
Of massing troops in the state began
and there are now over 5000 available
men, armed and equipped and ready for
the active campaign that is before them
The war will be over in a few months"
Senior Serena said the Indians had com
mitted many murders and DESTROYED q
large amount of property belonging to
peaceable Mexicans before they left the
valley. They had one fight with a small
force of Mexican troops, near the village
OF Onava, resulting in the defeat of the
Yaquis, their loss in killed being nine
one Mexican soldier was killed and three
were wounded in the fight.

FRENCH FISHERMAN KILLED.
British Gunbont Fired Upon a Poacb-
Ing Vessel.

FoLkSTONE, Eng, Aug. 9.-The Brit
lsh torpedo gunboat Leda this roornine,
round a French fishing boat. the Etoiue
de Mer belonging to Boulogne-S1r- NTer
hshing within the three-mile limit. The
nshermen attempted to escape. and did
not stop when blank shot was fred The
Leda then fired shot which the disabled
the Etoille de Mer and killed her helms
man. The fishing boat was afterwards
towed to this port with the body of her
helmsman on deck
The arrival Of the Etoille de Mer caused
much excitement, where is is hoped the
regrettable incident will draw attention
to the serious inroads made by foreign
fishermen in British waters.
The admiralty authorities express ex-
IRENE surprise at the fact that the fish
ing boat disregarded the Leda's signal
to heave to, and in the absence of the
official report, they assume that the com
m&nder of the Leda only resorted to dras-
tic measures when other means were in
effectual. The captain of the Etoille de-
Mer has been arrested.
The coroner's inquest upon the BODY of
the helmsman resulted in a verdict of ac-
cidental death, the jury generating the
officers of the Leda.

JIMINEZ IS CONFIDENT.
Expresses Belief That San Domingo
Is Practically His.

Is Practically His.
HAVANA, Aug. a.-Gen. Juan Isidro
Jiminez, the aspirant to the presidency
of San Domingo. said today, in the course
of an interview. that funds are being
daily l.laced to his credit i'll Paris. and
that lie had refused over S(t0 offers Ct
service on the part of Cuolns and Ameri-
cans who were ready to pay their ex-
penses. In reply to these offers he had
asserted that he had neither need nor de-
sire to organize expeditions. Today, he
said, he had received advices that two
more Dominican generals had declared
themselves in his favor, with following
of 800 men,
Dominican government paper, Gen. Jim
tneZ says, is unsuitable, Men of all COL
ors in Santo Domingo are joining his
cause, but most Of his generals are COL
ored, tie proportion Of black TO white
being two to one.
When questioned regarding a dispatch
from Cape Haytien, published by the
Discussion, representing that the Haytian
government IS unfavorable to his preten-
sions, and is prepared to prevent him
from landing on Haytian territory, Gen
Jiminez replied that the IIaytian govern
nent was in very rottan condition"
The revenue of the Dominican republic,
under a good government, should be, he
estimates, not less than 81, ,0O0, an
amount more than enough to meet The
governmental expenses and The interest
on the public debt. When he attains the
presidency he hopes TO go ahead promptly
with public works, and tC carry on ether
necessary improvements, but he insists
that 'the first necessity of Santo Do
mingo is honest men in her administra-
ton.
AS to the possibility that the existing
government may prevent his entering the
country, he ridiculcs it. as TO quote his
words, ''Santo Domingo is practically
mine.
