= This great story of sensational conspl-
racy which makes Burr's life unique IN
American history is explicitly set forth III
this remarkable serial. In 1904 Burr,
then President, was candidate for
the Governorship of New York, was over
whelmingly beaten, and as the result OF
the election picked a quarrel with and
killed Alexander Hamilton. The hIstorl-
cal characters involved in the story are
drawn true to life, and include, beside
Burr, Mrs. Samuel Chick, of Albany, Paul
Livingston, Samuel Swartout, hatchery
a scheming attorney and banker of Al
bany; Harry Granger, romantic youth
who had fallen under the influence of Burr
in the East, and who by misfortunes, IN
Guiding the death of his father, had been
impelled to migrate to the then infant
State of Ohio, and Jem Bounder. poor
New Jersey coast fisherman, who had been
acquainted with Granger in the East, Be
sides. there are some minor characters,
more or less typical of the times. Burr
term as Vice-President having expired IN
March, 1905, and as he is under lndlct-
ment for murder of Hamilton in both New
York and New Jersey, he goes West and
begins to mature his plans TO become the
Napoleon of a Western Empire.

THE HEALTH HABIT
Just as Easy to Form as Any
Other.

We do not deliberately form our pet
habits, but they are unconsciOusly &C
CURED and grow as we grow, and by the
time we learn they are hurting us, we find
them too strong to be easily broken.
Then. why not form good habit, a hab-
1t which will counterfeit the many bad
ones; in other words, contract the unfash-
ionable habit of being always well.
The best health habit to get into is to
have and keep vigorous stomach; il you
have healthy digestion you can drink
your beloved coffee, smoke your favorite
brand of tobacco, with little or no harm /;
the mischief begins when these things are
forced upon the faithful stomach, without
any assistance.
Form the habit of taking after meals
some harmless but efficient digestive which
will relieve the stomach of so much extra
work
Nature furnishes lis with such digestiyes
and when they are combined in such a
pleasant preparation as Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets they give the Ovcrworked
stomach just the necessary assistance to
secure perfect digestion without any of
the harmful effects of cathartics and SINH
lar drugs.
The habit Of taking Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets after meals is as necessary to the
weak stomach as food itself, and indeed
to get the benefit from food eaten, nothing
better and certainly nothing safer can be
used.
Many families consider Stuart's Tablets
as essential in the house as knives and
forks.
They consist entirely of natural digestive
principle without the effect or characteris-
tics of drugs; they have no cathartic ac-
ton, but simply go TO work on the food
eaten and digest it.
Take into account your bad habits and
the expense they entail and then invest
30 cents in box of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets and see if your digestion for the
next month is not vastly improved.
Ask the clerk in any drug store the
name OF the most successful and popular
stomach remedy and he viii say Stuart's.

plore your pardon. Shall it be stay. or
must l go forever?'
The ambitious woman trembled. To
cast him off would shatter a golden dream;
to retain him might be ruin. She was
venturesome. and the sweet voice of fiat
terry almcsr won her. and she. after a mild
rebuke, told the hatterer that he would
be forgiven if he was more guarded in
the future. The Colonel awaited Il few
days for the return of Blennerhassett, and
then set out for Washington City.
In those days OF stage coaches and
horseback Journeys one can only wonder
at the rapidity with which Aaron Burr
Travelled. He was in Washington in No,
vember. where he spent a week in mys-
FERROUS conferences with people: then went
South to meet his son-in-law and confer
with him, and in December was in phill-
delphia.
In this month Burr wrote his first letter
10 Blennerhassett. 1t was very limo
cent communication, to all appearances.
1t began with regrets that he had not mad
the pleasure Of meeting Blcnnerhassa.t on
the island, and inquired when they could
come together. Then he assured Blcn-
nerhassett that he was too much of Il nan
to he satisfied with the commonplace de
lights of rural scclusion He should ?s-
would be employed In fact, the bette
was full of fulsOme praise and subtle fat
terry.
His conduct had grown so mysterious
as to puzzle many and cause even news
paper comment. At one time he seemed
wholly bent on securing Presidential ap,
pointmcnt, and ut another he thought only
of locating in some Western city and re-
turning to the practice of law; next they
had him engaged in some gigantic land
scheme, but most of the time mis- actions
were involved in mystery.
As late as March, 1906, Burr held an
interview with Jefferson, in which he
hoped TO secure some lucrative appoint
ment. 1t is a most pitiful sight to be
hold brcken-down politician groveling al
the feet of those in power, begging fol
some favor. When one enters The politi
cal field he surrenders his liberties. JEFF.
ferson refused to appoint Burr, and he
resolutely set his face Westward
Now" said he, on leaving the White
House. come what may. the expedition
shall be made. The empire. but a dream
heretofore, will soon be a living reality -
He at once began ronsing his clans. He
wrote TO Blennerhassett, whom he had en-.
listed in his scheme, making liberal prom.
iscs to him in the new empire

NEW YORK. April 19.-The Stock Market
opened only moderately active and show
ed very irregular price changes. General
Electric, in very sharp advance, was
a conspicuous feature of the market, but
elsewhere the changes for the most part
We're toward a lower level AS noted, how
ever, the market was exceedingly irregular
and the transactions were in comparative
ly small lots.
Inter ST continued very acute in all the
steel industrials. notably in Federal Steel
and American Steel and Wire. At the
same time. the fluctuations in these stocks
were smaller than they have been in sew
erai days. American Steel and Wire, pre-
ferTed broke sharply. but the common op-
ened and ruled for some time at about
its final figures OF yesterday Sugar Re-
ining was fairly active and lower and
elsewhere the movements in The indus
trial quarter were. as noted, rather linn
tied.
The local traction issues were also fair
ly active but. as with the industrials,
showed comparatively small changes in
price. Metropolitan Street Railway was
rather heavy. but Manhattan and Brooklyn
Rapid Transit were steady.
In the railway list Missouri Pacific. after
Texas Pacific was firm. The North III
and Union Pacific shares were steady. id
Pennsylvania Railroad showed a tendency
toward Improvement on light transactions.
Aside from these instances, the trading
was in very light volume.
The London market for American stocks
showed fractional declines, which were said
to result from quite heavy selling from this
side. The continent, however, was re-
ported buyer Of the Pacific stocks. Ru-
mors of a large iron failure in Glasgow
were said 10 have some influence in the
heaviness Of the London market. No
change was made in the bank Of England's 5
minimum rate of discount and the price Of
Consols was unaltered.
There was virtually nothing new in the
local situation over night with any bearing
on the market and the days trading was
resumed on virtually the same line on
which it moved at the close Of business
