Some people are never satisfied; or
rather perhaps, their troubles are of so
general nature as to admit Of no par

When Lord Kitchener Joined the

years ago, he was a tall, slim, very
handsome young man. The former Sir
dar did not ut first take to the army,
but had serious thoughts Of going on
the stage, ana was one day, while In
London, introduced by comrade to
the late George Honey. Young Kitch.
ener consulted George on the subject
of his hlstrlonic ambition. Honey
looked critically ut the officer and re.
marked:
II could get you m engagement In
five minutes as u walking gentleman,
but. let me tell you. you'd be better on

Then. very seriously. Honey gave the
other an insight into the seamy side of
an actors life, and finished with the
advice, "Stick to the army, Mr.. Kitch-
ener; It's a better shop than the
boards" Had Kitchener cut the ser.

might have been differently written.

EASE AND DISEASE
A Short Lesson on the Meaning
of a Familiar " Grid.

Disease is the opposite of ease.
Webster defines disease as slack
of ease, uneasiueso, trouble, vexa
ton, disquiet. 1t is condition
due to some arrangement of the
physical organism. A vast major
ity of the "dis-ease" from which
people suffer is due to impure
blood. Disease of this kind is
cured by Hood sSarsaparilla which
purifes, enricheS and vitaIizeS the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparllla cures
scrOfula, salt rheum, pimples and
all eruptiOns. 1t tones the stom-
ach aud creates a good appetite,
and it gives vigOr and vitality to
the whole body. 1t reverses the
condition of things, giving health,
comfort and lease" in place of
"disease.

For Congress 18th. District
RUDOLPH KLEBERG,
Of Dewitt County.

For lack of anything else to
kick abOnt, some Texas newspapers
are jumping on the legislatures for
putting Such heavy tax on circus
eS exhibiting in this state, as to
make that class Of show exceeding
~ scarce in the state. Ii is not
probable that many sensible per-
Suns will agree Ia this cOndemna-
too Of the Lawmakers. 1t may be
true, as one exchange urges, that
circus puts large snn OF money
into circulation in whatever CON-
n.unity it visits, and the newSpa-
per fraternity may lose something
In the way OF advertising; yet it is
generally conceded that a big cir
Gus, with its usual attendance of
hundreds Of fakirs and Swindlers,
lis accumulation of filth and liabili-
~ to spread disease, is more or
less Of a nuisance in any COM
munity. AS to its educational feat
nres, it must require consider
able stretch of the Imagination to
find any great value of that nature
IN such a show as the ordinary
travelling circus that exhibits in
small towns. The larger circuses,
Snch as Forepaughs and Ringliug's,
which carry fine collections of
wild animals-and that is the only
feature which even the most ardent
circus adnnrer ever claims to be
instructive rarely visit the
smaller towns, and the "poOr farm
er" caanot take his family to see
them unless he is able to afford
railroad fare TO the nearest city
where they exhibit. In other re-
spects, a circus, while it may be
immensely diverGing or entertain
ing, can hardly be claimed to be
improving or educational. They
can, however, ineuIcate more
slangy expressions aud smutty
sayings, and more slarpers' tricks
10 a community in one day, than
the people living there could gain
without the circus in a good many
years. People will patronize Cir

Company E, Twenty-ninth Infantry, and
three other American soldiers captured
by the Filipinos, had been turned over"

The despatch concludes: More par
ticuiars soon. giving names killed and
wounded" This would seem TO indicate
that they had not been turned over"
without struggle 1t can easily be sur
missed from the wording of the despatch
that at the time he sent it General Mac
Arthur himself was in ignorance of the
details.
Captain Shields and his party were cap
tured several weeks ago while making an
expedition into the island of Marinduaue.
The capture was afterward denied by Ad-
rn-ral Kempn. General Hare was ordered
TO the srene. however, and it is natural
TO suppose that the rescue was effected by
him anu his party.
The cablegram follows:

REGISTRATION IN OHIO.
Apparent Frauds Committed by Re-
pubiicans in Hamilton County.


John R. Mclean continues firm in the
belief tnat Ohio viii cast its electoral vote
for Bryan and Stevenson He believes.
also. that registration frauds have been
committed by the Republican managers in
Hamilton county.
Mr.. Mclean has received the following
letter from a correspondent, whom he con-
siders trustworthy:
Il write to say that I am from careful
observation, of the BELIEF that Bryan will
be the next President. and think that Ohio
can be carried for him if an old-fashioned
quiet canvass is made. | am fully con-
vinced that there has been a false regis
tration of several thousand votes in this
city, amounting to between 5000 and TO-
600. all fraudulent votes being Republican.
I am streng gthened Z tilis opinion by n
comparison of views witt others with whom
l have eonversed since MY return home
persons whose judgment vnu would res
pect.
Take the fact that the Federal census
returns show IL Cincinnati's corporate
limits population of little over 225. 600
while the registered vote is over s.. .0QO or
about one in four. No other city has such
a proportion.
''The past registration is false therefore
on its face What is necessary is TO see
that this fraud shall not be continued and
perpetuated at the November election
This is a fair illustration of Republi
can tactics bur the frauds on the registry
list will not be permitted 10 vote if there
is any virtue in law and justice in the Of
fcials Of Hamilton county These ifi-
Gals are Republicans
