THE FEAR OF HUMBUG.
Prevents Many People From Try
ing a Good Medicine.

ing q Good Medicine.
Stomach troubles are so common
and in most cases SO obstinate to
cure that people are apt TO look
with suspicion on any remedy
claiming to be a radical, perma-
nent cure for dyspepsia and indi-
gestion. Many such pride them
selves on their acuteness in never
being humbugged, especially in
medicines.
This fear of being humbugged
can be carried too far, so far, in
fact, that many people suffer for
years with weak digestion rather
than risk a little time and money
in faithfully testing the clair1s
made of a preparation so reliable
and universally used as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are vastly different in one import
ant respect from ordinary proprie-
tary medicines for the reason that
they are not a secret patent medl-
cine, no secret is made of their in
gradients, but analysis shows them
to contain the natural digestive
ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, the
digestive acids, Golden Seal, bis
muth, hydrastis and nux. They
are not cathartic, neither do they
act powerfully on any organ, but
they cure indigestion on the COM
mon sense plan of digesting the
food eaten thoroughly before it
has time to ferment, sour and
cause the mischief. This is the
only secret of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and
never can cure Indigestion and
stomach troubles because they act
entirely on the bowels, whereas the
whole trouble is really in the
stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken
after meals digest the food. That
is all there is to it. Food not d.
gested or half digested is poison
as it creates gas, acidity, head
aches, palpitation of the heart, loss
of flesh and appetite and many
other troubles which are often
called by some other name.

Sensational Break In Cotton
Market

New York, May 24.-The
cotton market was one great
sensation today. No official
record of the transactions was
kept, but conservative estimates
placed the aggregate of the
days dealings at considerably
above the million bale mark.
From the start to finish of this
most extraordinary session there
was one enormous Outpour of
long cotton supplemented by
the most aggressive conduct on
the part of.the bears, who adj
ded largely to their short inter-
est. While the primary cause of
of the decline might be traced
to the brilliant character of the
crop advices from the cotton
belt, the immediate reason for
today's collapse was the tremen-
dous selling for the account of a
banking firm, originally very sue
cessful on the long side of the
account and for months quoted
as the leading factor in the ups
and downs of the market. This
concern, Price, Mccormick & Co,
tailed today. The announcement
of their inability to respond to
calls for margins reached the ex-
change at 12:37 p. m. and i'm.
mediately the market became a
vortex of excitement. This firm
had for months dictated the price
of cotton, the world over, with
attention directed chiefly to the
summer positions and more es.
pecially to May and August con-
tracts. Today May contracts
broke IS points ; they sold down
10 8 As. This was a decline of 120
points from the high water mark.
August broke 10 6.35, decline
Of 1875 points from the best prices
current when the firm that failed
today appeared to be in absolute
control of the market. The de-
cline on other positions was gen
orally 100 43 points. There were
rumors pointing to other suspen.
sions. The close was at the low
est.

TAYLOR A FUGITIVE.
An Indictment is Really Found
Against Him as an Access
sorry i'm GOebel's Murder.

Louisville, KY, May ga
telegram from a Trustworthy
source in Indianapolis this morn,
ing says Governor Taylor of Ken.
lucky, has reached that city for a
consultation with his friends. The
moment the supreme court issued
its decision, a detective was sent
to indianapolis for ex-Secretary
of State Finley or any other Re-
publican Indicted by the Frank
lin county grand jury.
A bench warrant was issued
for Taylor and a detective sent
to find him. Taylor eluded the
detective in a closed carriage and
escaped into Indiana, This thus
brought out the fact that an in
dictment was really found against
Taylor and held up by Judge
Cantrell.
The feeling today is very bit
ter The Republican minor state
officers refuse to surrender to the
Democrats and will carry their
cases up to the United States
supreme court, and until that
body acts on their writ of error
they will hold their Offices. The
Democrats admit that Taylor was
governor legally until yesterdays
decision.
Five Republican state officers
indicted as accessories in the Goe-
bel murder were pardoned by
Taylor. Under the supreme court
decision, these pardons will serve
as a bar to any prosecution of
the indictments.
Taylor will not return to Ken
lucky until the Republican state
convention has been called, just
after the Republican national
convention.
