ARE FILLING THE STRIKERS PLACES More Men at Work in the Job Printing 0fices-The
 Situation

The job printing offices affected by the printers strike worked larger forces yester- day than on any previous day since the strike was declared. About twenty non- union men. mostly members of the Print CTS Protective Fraternity, have arrived in the city within the last three or four IS to take the places of the strikers An of ficial of one of the job printing companies stated last night that his company was running along smoothly and getting out a lot of work. He said that his company had not lost any business on account of the strike. This official stated that the other shops in the city were in about the same condition his.
 When the strike was inaugurated a week ago today thirty-five members of Typo graphical Un1on NO. Io4- employed ill the five offices affected quit work. Within the last three days twenty men, or about half the number that quit, have come to Birm- ingham and gone to work in the strikers places. The officials of the different com- p2nies claim they will have all the mem they need within the next few days.
 On the other hand the striking printers claim that only few men are at work and that the job offices are badly hampered. It is sbllted that several of the offices affected by the strike h,aRe lost contracts, and that others will be taken from them if the strike is not settled.
 The feeling at headquarters was decidedly hopeful that the men would win out. The Birmingham Trades Council meets tonight to take some action on the printers strike. Typographical Union No. 1O4 Is af- filiated with the Trades Council, and the latter body adopted resolutions pledging sympathy and support at the regular meet ing last Sunday afternoon

with warm applause. Fathee OReilly said there had never been any trouble in rais- ing money He said all that was necessary was to approach people in the right way. He would never think of talking creed. That was out of the question. There was no creed connected with the hospital. "The first minister I met in the temporary quar- ters was a Lutheran minister Mo- there is no creed here. If I were to talk creed, would at once be put aside. Every one feels at home in the hospital, and it must ever be so."
 Father O'Reilly took his seat amid great applause.
 Memorial Rooms.
 Almost all the rooms for private patients have been furnished privately-that is to say, by in/rvidual society benevolence; and it is Impossible to imagine any rooms more beautiful or more luxurious. On the facing to the door of each room Is a silver tablet giving the name and, in some in- stances, the object of the donation. For example, there is the beautiful room Me morial to Nettie OBrien Smith," and the one to Margaret E. O'Brien Davis," the gifts of the parents of those fair women Hon. Frank P O'Brien and Mrs. O'Brien; and, aseanother example, on the doors of the splendid apartments furnished by the Alabama Club is simply the name of that club, and so on.

The next speaker was the Rev. Dr. O. F. F'itzsimons, and he made one Of the most telling addresses of the occason. He began by relating an incident of the Cri- mean war Sir Colin Campbell was holding a fort His men-few in number-were at breakfast and the Mamelukes gave them a surprise. Sir Colin hastily ordered out his troops and forming a single line fired. The enemy did not retreat. The British fired another volley and the Mamelukes fell. It was a bold undertaking on the part of Sir Colin, but successful one. The famous general was courtmartialed for whot his superiors regarded as tactics op- posed to military science. When the pres ident of the court asked what he had to say in explanation, his reply was: May it please the honor of the court, I knew my men and they knew me-" And of course Sir Colin was vindicated.
 Dr. Fitzsimons told another anecdote similar to the first one, in which a rear ad iral in the battle of Copenhagen ach -ved a triumph. The application was

DON'T! WOMEN.

Don't write to a woman, when the root
leaks. Write to a carpenter. Don't
write to woman when the water pipe
bursts. Write to a plumber. Don't write
to woman when you are sick, write to a
doctor. But why such superfuous ad-
vice? Simply to call attention to the
fact that women who are not qualified
physicians offer medical advice, in adver-
tisements worded in such a deceptive
manner that you are apt to overlook the
important fact that the woman is not
physician.
The great success of DR.. r. V. Pierce,
in treating and curing diseases of women
has led to limitations of his methods, es-
pecially his offer of a free consultation
by letter to all sick women. At the head
of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitute, of Buffalo, n. V, and with an ex-
perience of over thirty years, DR.. Pierce
has achieved the position of the chief

ans diseases. There is no living ply
sician, male or female, who can show an
equal record of over hall-a-1nillion wom-
en- treated and ninety-eight per cent. of
cures. Write to the doctor. Your letter
will be read in private, answered in pri-

# Republicans Stihs a Full In
vestigation, Steps for I'm
peachment will be Taken.
THE FIRST MOVE MADE.
Hanna and Other Party Leaders In
dignant Over Publication of
Hepburn's Letter.

Washington, Jan. 12.-An effort to
impeach Secretary Gage will be made
if the republicans prevent thorough
investigation of his acts in connec-
ton with the National City Bank
scandal
At a conference of the democratic
leaders it was decided to introduce
in the house to-day resolution for
an Investigation OF Secretary Gage.
1t is the desire of the democrats that
the investigation be non-partisan.
The republicans in the house and
senate buried political feeling when
they unanimously passed resolutions
OF inquiry; and the democrats have
no desire now to make the affair one
of party politics.
The reply OF Secretary Gage was so
utterly inadequate, and the letters,
taken from the official correspond
ence, are so startling, that the demo-
Gratis feel confident the republicans,
like themselves, wish to learn all the
facts.
Democrats will take the position
that Secretary Cages relations with
the Standard Oil Bank of New York
are great national scandal, which
it is the duty of congress, irrespective
of party, to probe to the bottom.
representative Sulzer of New York,
who introduced the original resolu-
ton OF inquiry, was instructed by
the democratic conference to offer the
bipartisan investigation resolution
to-day.
If the request for a non-partisan
committee of investigation is not
granted it will be regarded by the
democrats as a partisan attempt to
shield republican office-holder, and
they will reply by presenting articles
OF impeachment.
1t will be impossible to ostifle debate
on a motion to impeaeh, for it is
privileged, and all the extraordinary
correspondence of the secretary, with
copious explanations, will be laid be-
fore the country.
Some OF the republican leaders in
private, denounce the secretary for
furnishing the Hepburn letter. 1t is
pointed out by them that it was not
addressed to the secretary officially,
and that it had no connection with
other letters

HUSBAND is IN JAIL.
kentuckian Accused of POisining His
Wife,

Mayfield, Ky, Jan. 12.-Ellis Gra-
ham, farmer. resident of this coun-
ty, living fifteen miles west of here,
was lodged III the county Jail at this
pla"t yesterday afternoon. He is
charged with having poisoned his
wife, whose death occurred quite
mysteriOusly Saturday night. Sat
urday afternoon Mrs. Graham was
taken suddenly i'll and a neighboring
physician was called. He promptly
pronounced her condition the result
OF strychnine. An antidote caused
temporary relief and the physician
left other medicine for her.
During the night Mrs. John Carney
mother of the sick woman, was in the
act of administering some medicine
when Graham, she says, insisted that
he be allowed to prepare the
dose of medicine. Shortly after
this incident the sick woman was
writhing in agony, and before ply
slclan could be called she died. DR..
John L. Dimukes, Jr, of this city,
obtained the stomach OF the deceased
woman and took it to Louisville last
night to have it analyzed.
Graham is a man of good appear
ance aged about 30 years He says
he came from Bowling Green, KY,
and has little to say OF his life prior
to his marriage, three years ago.
Several months ago he had, it is
said. his wife's life insured for $1,000.
He declined to make any statement
regarding the death of his wife or his
arrest.
Mrs. Graham is a sister to Messrs.
Ira and Robert Davis, two prominent
business men OF this city, and about
27 years of age.

HER SACRIFICE FOR LOVE.
Sweetheart Receivers, but She Dies. He
Committed Suicide.

Wichita, Kan, Jan. 14.-While try
ing to save her Indian sweetheart
from smallpox, Miss Ella Richards, a
white woman, was herself stricken
and died yesterday on the bed where
he had lain and recovered.
Thinking that Jack Flinthouse was
going to die she drank his blood SO
that the smallpox microbes would
circulate in her system and death for
both would result, but the Indian
grew better, while his sweetheart grew
worse.
For the last month smallpox has
ragged among the POnca Indians. 1t
was mild in form and no deaths re-
suited. But Jack F1inthouse. it was
thought by friends, would die, SO
Miss Richards, his fiancee. a white
girl of wealth at Mulvane, Kan, was
notified, but told not to come near
him. Her parents also coaxed her to
remain away, and even locked the
distracted girl in her room. How
ever, she escaped and walked nearly
100 miles to the POnca Reservation
Seeking her lovers house she bribed
quarantine officers and gained his
bedside. Many days and nights of
anxious watching passed then the
Indian decided death for him was GER
tain. The white girl decided to die
also, so she cut a vein in his arm,
drank the blood and together they
prepared to die But cruel fate caus-
ed him to grow stronger. Fever came
upon his nurse, she grew worse day
by day and yesterday died. Flint
house then committed suicide.
Miss Richards fell in love with the
man for whom she died, last summer.
He saved her from drowning while
she was fishing with a party of friends
in Oklahoma Although she had
many lovers from refined white men
she declined them all and remained
true to the Indian. Because of dan
ger of spreading the disease both
bodies were buried together in an
out of the way place.
