INDICTMENTS STAND.
Sutton and Marsh Must Stand
Trial in the Military
Board Case.

To BE ut the Michigan Club Banquet.
Lansing Mich, Feb. 20.-Prosecut-
ing Attorney Tuttle has asked the cir
cult court for an order for certain pa
pers belonging to the quartermaster
generals department which will be
important In the trial of the case
against General A. Il. Marsh. The pa
pers are now in theprosecutor's hands,
but the new quartermaster general
has demanded their possession. Tuttle
refused the demand, and in making
his motion in court stated that he was
fearful that the documents might be
destroyed either by accident or design
II he permitted them to go out of his
custody.
The Subpoena for Goodrich.
Grant Goodrich, a clerk in General
Marsh's office at Allegan, has been or
dered to produce In court all letters,
papers, notes, vouchers, books, ac-
counts and receipts pertaining to mon
eys received or expended by Marsh
from July 1, 1899, to Jan. 1, 1900, in
connection with the ONCE of inspector
general. The subpoena also orders
Goodrich to produce In court all let
ters, notes, papers, etcA relating to
loan of $1,000 made by II. Il. Marsh,
the father OF Arthur II. Marsh, ON or
about July 10, 1899. This Is about the
date of the deal between the military
board and the mythical Illinois Supply
company, Of Chicago, and is significant.
Declines to Ouash the Indictments.
Judge West, of. the Ingham county
circuit court, yesterday morning
handed down his opinion in the mo-
tons argued several days ago to
quash the indictments against Sutton
and Marsh. Both motions are denied.
After reciting at some length the form
and contents of the indictments, the
opinion says: "The respondent has
moved to quash the Indictment, alleg-
ing several reasons, the principal one
being that the Indictment against Sutton
does not charge that any criminal of
Tense had been committed by White,
but merely recites that an indictment
had been found by the grand jury
against White, and does not charge or
allege that any offense had been COM
mitted by White. In this state an ac-
cessory before the fact may be charged
together with the principal indicted as
q principal"

Pride of the Poor.

Mrs. Clarence Burns, who Is so well
known for her philanthroplc work,
says that in all her experience in visit
ing the tenements Of the poor Of the
city she has never been asked for aims.
Mrs. Burns has made business Of Wis
iting the poor with the hope Of helping
them whenever she saw the need, but
finds it almost impossible to make the
really deserving poor acknowledge that
they are in need Of anything.
One day she visited a family who
were all huddled together In one bare,
cold room, and their faces were so
pinched she knew they were starving.
But in response to her offer to help
them the mother said:
mo, thank you. The children have
had something today. am sure to get
work soon."
After questioning as to just exactly
what the children had had to eat Mrs.
Burns found that they had subsisted
for three days on a few dried scraps Of
stale bread. This experience, she says,
Is repeated frequently.-New York

4 Tough, rough rish.

Fish seem to have no sense Of feel
ing, and many people believe that the
angry and energetic movements Of a
fish when it is caught are due rather to
annoyance at losing its liberty than to
any sense of pain. can confirm this,
because | have over and over again
taken an understood pike that has been
once or twice caught and put back into
the water.
Upon one occasion three Of us-boys
Of the Old brigade-were fishing in a
small pool in narrow, sluggish river.
Jones caught small pike, and as 1t
was understood, being barely four
pounds, he cut the hooks out Of Its gull
let and threw the fish in again. Inside
of 30 seconds Jones caught the same
fish again. Once more he cut out the
hooks, and this time he had to maui 1t
very much. Once more 1t was kicked
In.
Then I caught 1t, still bleeding. ] got
the hooks out with difficulty, and be-
fore l could throw the fish in again

kicked the fish in, and Brown caught
1t. At last we got so tired Of catching
this fish that threw it away in dis
gust. 1t caught IN the fork Of willow
tree and staid there for half an hour,
when a crow attacked 1t, dislOdging 1t
from the tree, but not before it had re-
moved one Of the eyes. The selfsame
fish was caught next day by the keep

Facts
for
Women

Any article, whatever it's merit,
must be made known to the public by
means of advertising. Advertising,
however, though it can do much for a
thing, cannot do everything. 1t may
create a sale for time, but in order
to insure a lasting demand the thing
advertised must have solid worth.
This is the case with Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. 1t has
solid worth.
Women everywhere have learned
this fact, and the result is that there
is lasting and absolutely unequaled
demand for it. 1t has the largest sale
of any remedy for female ills in the
world, and this has been the case for
years.
The reason for this is that Mrs.
Pinkham claims nothing that she is
not entitled to claim. She can do all
that she says she can do, and her
twenty years of experience make her
advice invaluable. Herexperience has
been not only long but worldwide,
and she has helped more women back
to health than any one else in the
world. These facts should, and do,
have immense weight with all sensible
women. Remember these are not wild
statements but solid facts.

A Trick mt Cards That Puzzled Those

" ho witnessed III.

once" said Godfrey Ashton of Atlanta.
(which, although he assured me was
wholly trick and that there was no
second sight or mind reading connect
ed with 1t, has always rested in an
unexplained condition in my mind.
"There were four of us at supper,
and the man In question sent for
pack of cards, and, handing them to
the man next him. told him to select a
card In his mind; not to take 1t from
the pack, but to tell the other two
men what card 1t was. He was then to
shuttle the pack and pass it to the
other two men, who were each to
thoroughly shuttle it. The last man
was then to place 1t on the floor.
I'm the meantime a large napkin
had been tightly bound over the magi-
clans eyes and his dress coat hung over
his face with the tails tied under his
chin. so that his head was to all In

his direction, was led to the pack of
cards and his hand placed upon it. He

He called for knife, and, bringing it
sharply down, drove 1t through and
affixed one of the scattered cards. Re-
moving his headgear, he asked what
card my friend had chosen. The an
swer being the ten Of diamonds, he
turned the knife toward us, and there,
sure enough. was the ten of diamonds
transfxed upon the point.
HE swore it was a trick. but for
the life of me cannot see how 1t was
done. None of us was in collision with
him. am sure the cards were not

that he was SO blindfoldcd that it was
wholly impossible for him to see. Yet
he accomplished it exactly as l tell
you."-New York Tribune.

Dewey had met this famous woman

belief, but she was one of the most
brilliant, lovable and kindly women
ever elected to guide the social affairs
Of the diplomatic corps in Washington.
A lady who overheard it tells Of an
amusing passage which the baroness
