After a Careful Investigation.

Close examination into the
practical results which have
been had from the use of this
remedy, has caused us to en-
dorse it as being an undoubted
cure. EffeCtual in removing
the exciting cause in a number
of attacks which had been of
the severest and most tedious
character, Crusade Internal Pile
cure permanently restored to
health; and in cases which we're
OF a milder description, its use
Immediately afforded relief and
cure.
Submitting the whole ques=
ton OF the intrinsic value OF
this remedy to medical men OF
acknowledged competence, we
obtained from them further
proof of its merit. While UNI
willing to give their approval
to proprietary remedies as a
whole, they admitted that facts
we're at hand in regard to Cru
sad0 which left no question in
their minds Of its right to a
place among those proprietary
medicines, which--comparatively
small in number-=realIy receive
the endorsement of the profess
sion. Read the following testi.
m0nial from a Peoria citizen:
DR.. Donald Wallace Co.
| st. Louis, Mo.
Dear Sirs:-Crusado will do all you
claim for it as I can testify: I have
been sufferer for more than 90 years
with bleeding and protruding. have
had operations both by ligature and
the knife, but with no permanent re-.
suit. Have also used every known
remedy in the shape of ointments and
Isuppositories, and secured only tenn
porary relief. July 10, 1899, I began
using your Crusade Internal Pile Cure
with little faith, but today, August 80,
1899, | am rejoicing in the fact that 1
am absolutely cured, and can not too
highly recommend it to all sufferers.
Wishing Crusade the success it de-
serves, l am, Yours truly,

and center back seams, an underlying
box plait laid at the end of the back
seam just below the waist line to give
necessary fulness to the skirt. The
fronts close with buttons and button
holes, gray and yellow cord finished
with tassels tied in front forming a
girdle around the waist. The pointed
hood is shaped by single seam and
may be lined or not, as preferred. It
may be made adjustable or included
in the neck seam with collar, or omit
ted if not desired. The two-seamed
sleeves combine style with simplicity,
as they fit the arm closely and are ex-
tremely comfortable. All kinds of
flannel and Turkish toweling, camel's
hair, merino, soft serge and cheviot,
as we'll as the lighter weights of double
faced cloths, are used to make wrap
pers of this kind. The robe may be
lined throughout with bright plaid to
match the lining of the hood, but the
simpler these garments are made the
more useful and desirable they are.

sired the skirt may match.
The foundation, which is a fitted
lining, closes at the centre front, but
the waist proper is fitted with shoulder
and under arm seams only and closes
invisibly at the side. The sleeves,
while snug enough for style, are not
over tight, and are finished with cuffs
that match the collar.
To make this waist for woman of
medium size two and one-quarter
yards of material thirty-six inches
wide will be required.

THE TWO PHlLPoTs ACQUITTED.
Father and Son, Accused of Killing
Aaron Morris, Set Free.


MANCHESTER, KY. Especially D.-The exam
lining trial of George NJ. Philpot aud his
son Peter, charged with killing Aaron
Morris, as an outcome of the mountain
feud, ended in the acquittal of both de-
PENDANTS before County Judge Wright.
County Attorney A. C. Turner represented
the prosecution and Samuel Kash, prom
inent Republican politician. defended the
Philpots. Deputy Sheriff Wash Thacker
testified that he was watching Robert
Philpot sign his bail bond at Little
Goose Creek, and that others OF the
Philpot party were waiting for him,
when Morris and his men dashed up aud
began shooting at his prisoner and at Ed
ward Fisher. His testimo ony indicated
that the Philpots acted only in self-defence.
Robert Ponder and others testified that
Aaron Morris fired the first shot. Aaron
Morris mother, who was Rachael Griffin,
and Hugh Griffin, testified that her sons
left home on the morning of the fight
armed with revolvers.
On motion CT Kash, Judge Wright dis.
missed the case, and court was at once ad.
journed The Philpots, who had packed
their rifles in the clerks office, procured
their weapons and started home on horse
back. They said they we're not going tc
follow up the Grfins, but would go on
about their business of getting out logs fol
shipment down the river. Mortal enemies
Of the Philpots. on account OF he recent
fight, are the Griffins, the Gibbs, the Bar.
netts, the Browns and the Chadwells, but
they fear the Philpots too much to be likely
to open hostiiities.

THE ARMOR OF THE MAINE
PROPOSAL to Scale It Down Two Hun

Plan Calculated to Make Three of Our

ships Now Building Adopted.

WASHINGTON, D. G. (Special) The Naval
Board on Construction unanimously re-
jected the proposal to scale down the ar
NOR of the battleship Maine by 200 tons,
according to the plans of the bidders. The
officers present at the meeting were Rear
Admiral O'Neil chairman of the Board
and Chief of Ordnance; Rear-Admiral
Hichborn, Chief Constructor; Rear-Ad-
miral Melville, Engineer in Chief, and
Rear Admiral Bradford, Chief of Equip.
ment.
Afterward the Boa-d adopted modified
plan presented by Chief Constructor Hich-
born, redistributing the armor weights in
manner that is calculated to make the
Maine, the Missouri and the Ohio the best
protected battleships now building for any
country. This plan presents with an
Insignificant ~ tons the aggregate weight
OF armor originally adopted for this class
of ships, which was $500 tons, and
while reducing its thick ness about one
inch in the belt amidshiIs, additional pro-
lection is extended toward the extremities
OF the exposed structure. The plan met
the cordial approval of the Chief Of
Ordnance, who was satisfied that eleven
inches of the latest process steel plate was
thick enough as a maximum for any
battleship, and who welcomed the in
creased armor forward and aft as typical
OF the best practice abroad at this time.
An advantage which is anticipated from
the Chief Constructors extension of the
armor over greater surface longitudin-
ally will be the improvement of the vessel
as gun platform in rough seaway. The
proceedings Of the Board were marked by
singular harmony and regard for the best
interests Of the Govern ment, and it was
explained after it's unusually brief ses-
sion that no fault whatever could be
found with the contractors for the Maine,
who expressed in advance their readiness
to make any changes In the ship that
would insure the best vessel the Govern
ment ever built. The contracto ors for the
Missouri and the Ohio, it was believed,
would promptly agree to Rear Admiral
Hichborn's modification of armor distribu-
tion, and their work could 60 on without
interruption. Fortunately, no contracts
had been made for the armor of these
vessels, Congress having failed to give
sufficient authority.

The Importance of the Belt.

The little matter of belts has an i'm
portance in dress out of all proportion
to the size of the article, but the belt
adds to or detracts from the appear
ance in a most startling manner, es-
pecially the latter when it is not ad-
justed properly. White kid belts, plain
or variously trimmed with beads or
metal of some sort, are worn with the
white shirtwaists, but prettier than
these are the belts Of soft white satin
ribbon wide enough to wrinkle lit
tie, fastened with silver gilt buckle.
Very pretty, too, are the belts of white
taffeta silk cut bias, hemmed on the
machine and finished with rosette
bow.

Separate Waist. a Permanency.

Separate waists continue in favor
and give evidence of having taken a
permanent hold. The simple design
shown in the large engraving is both
smart and comfortable, being snug
without tightness and embodying the
suggestion of the sailor style, which
is always admirable for informal wear.
As illustrated the material is blue
and white stripe, with collar Of plain
blue banded with braid, but q plain
color is equally suitable, and various
combinations can be made. Where,
as in this instance, the vest matches
the waist, it is effective of white pique
or cloth. and where the collar is blue

Arizona's Petrified Forests.

The Indians of southwestern Ari-
zona used to visit the petrifed forests
frequently to obtain agate for their ar
row and spear heads, and the material
was scattered over the entire continent
by exchange between the different
tribes from the Isthmus of Panama to
Bering Straits. The great deposit
here explains where all the arrow
heads of moss agate came from, and
other weapons and implements of
similar material that are found in the
Indian mounds and graves of the
Central and Western States. In the
stone age the agate of the petrifed
forest was the very best material that
could be obtained for both the imple-
ments of war and peace of the abort
gines. A sealping knife could be made
very easily from one of the chips of
agate and could be ground to very
fine edge. Many crystals were used
Tor jewelry and ornaments also.

lots. There is no question that, man
for man, the Republicans presented
u better ticket To the voters last Sat
urday than did the Democrats. How
ever, we believe there were some
good, conscientious men elected last
Saturday to conduct our town gov
eminent, and we trust they will con-
stitute a majority Of the board.
As to the m~ayOr-elect, John Z.
Barnes, we have always entertained
a very high opinion Of him. He has
the reputation Of a Christian and u
gentleman In this community. But
there were ugly rumors set a1Oat on
election day, to the effect that he had
promised To appoint a well-known
saloon proprietor town marshal In
order to secure the vote OF that ele-
ment. As this vote went to him al
mos, solid, there IL some ground for
believing it true. Yet we areloath to
believe that Mr.. Barnes would make
such a promise and shall hesitate to
credit 1t until an appointment is
made.
We still believe that better results
would have been attained had men
Of both parties pushed right ahead
with "A citizens movement. We were
early aware that great difficulty
would be found in getting men duly
qualified and fitted for aldermen In
the various wards. When it was de-
termined To make "A party fight this
difficulty became very apparent to
both parties and the result was that
some OF the very best men werefound
Ineligible. With a Republican and
Democrat on the ticket from each
ward and IA fair-minded man of either
party named for mayor all opposi-
ton could have been deiied and the
personnel Of the council would have
been Of "A higher standard. But the
spoils hunters and local bosses among
the Democrats determined to make "A
party fight and jumped into the
arena with "A challenge, whipping the
leader into line AS they went, thus
%precluding the cooperation of the
latter in the citizens movement.
1t may prove just as well. The
party will be held responsible for its
blunders and shortcomings, and II
it's acts do not meet the approval OF
taxpayers they can turn it down at
ity affords.
