1 C0nmOn Disease. which ~ " II
Means the Result ~ Imaginatfon.
Undoubtedly many nervous peo-
pie suffer from troubles purely
imaginary; diseases which exist
only In the mind of the patient,
and such troubles furnish fertile
field for the quack as well as for
faith healers and Christian Science
treatment.
However, there is one common
and annoying disease which is in
no sense of the word imaginary and
that is Piles.
Pile sufferers do not need a ply
stefan to tell them what is the mat
ter: there is no abscurity about it.
Neither will a simple lotion or ONT
ment cure it. You cannot deceive
a pile sufferer into believing he is
being cured. because the pain and
itching from which he suffers is
not imaginary and cannot be cur
ed by Imagination. A pile remedy
must have unmistakable merit, 1t
must relieve the pain and cure the
disease speedily or 1t will be con-
demned.
Mr.. w. N. Dunn, Of 5719 Shields
Ave, Chicago, writes: am indebt-
ed to the Pyramid Pile Cure
thousand times for the speedy re-
lief and permanent cure of a Sc
we're case of piles. l was cured
perfectly with so cent box and
more than that l still have three
of the Pyramids left OF the box

I think the Pyramid Pile Cure
is the grandest thing of the age
and / shall certainly recommend
it to all sufferers.
The manufacturers of the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure are at perfect lib
erty to refer any person<to me and

All druggists sell the Pyramid
Pile Cure at so cents per box and
as it contains no cocaine opiate
or any poison whatever is entire
ly safe and reliable.

CHICAGO, May 15.-The election of
bishops of the Methodist Church has so
far resulted in no choice. One ballot was
taken to-day, but none Of the forty odd
candidates received the necessary two
thirds vote required under the rules The
number of votes cast was ESQ., and it was
predicted that a dozen ballots might have
to be taken to secure the two bishops de-
sired. The board of tellers closely guarded
the result. Even the church leaders and
candidates were denied the information
they sought from the tellers
During the afternoon the various candi-
dates were exercised by rumor that was
persistently circulated to the effect that
DR.. John w. Z. Bowen. the colored candi-
date, had won on the first ballot. Investi-
cation proved the rumor to be incorrect,
and the information leaked out that there
was no choice on the first ballot. One re-
port from an unofficial source had ii that
the count showed DR.. Bowen in the lead
with 29S votes to his credit Another story
was to the effect that DIR. James NJ Buck
ley had secured over three hundred votes
and was at the head of the list One pre-
siding elder who claimed to have inside
information declared that the count would
show the first six to be DIR. David HI

CROKER MAY BE OsTRACIsED.
Savage Attack on the Tammany Boss
by London Editor.

Savage Attack ON the Tammany Boss
by a London Editor.
LONDON, May 15-The Express of to-
day advocates the ESTABLISHMENT of Rich
ard Croker, in England, in revenge for
Tammanys attitude on the Boer war. 1t
says: ut has not escaped notice in this
country that an American welcome to the
Boer delegates has been inspired and en-
couraged by Tammany Hall, which is con-
trolled by the notorious boss. Richard
Croker. The record of Tammany is already
new infamy. But what makes the action of
Tammany peculiarly infamous now is the
fact that Croker claims the hospitality of
an English domicile, poses as English
gentleman and runs race horses the
English turf. yet is aiding and encouraging
the worst of Englands enemies. Crokers
position is practically on all fours with
that of the Duke of Orleans, except that
he does not carry that faint of personal
uncleanliness which made his highness of
Orleans unit to associate with his respect
able fellow-creatures The duke has al
ready paid the penalty. Croker is having
good reasons for not spending more of his
time in America than he can help. He has
bought Moat House. His claims on our hos
pitality have already been fully recognized
for he is admitted to various sporting clubs
of more or less Importance. He now ap-
parently, desires to qualify as an English
whom he controls in New York to express
sympathy with men who are engaged in
shooting the sons and brothers of other
English land owners. If Croker finds the
bracing air of the United States does not
invariably suit his constitution, he should
secure the calm air of an Italian village
within reach of the Duke of Orleans. whose
company he will probably find congenial."

WARNED BY AGUINALDO.
Letter That Shows a Plot Existed to
Make Trouble in Manila.

WASHINGTON, May 15.-The President
to-day sent to the Senate a letter from
General Otis renting translation OF a
letter written by Aguinaldo to a friend
in Manila, warning him to leave that city.
Aguinaldo's letter is dated Malolos, Jan. II,
1899. and is addressed to Senior Bonito Le-
gardo. In it Aguinaldo says: II beg you
to leave Manila with your family and to
come here to Malolos. but not because 1
wish to brighten you. 1 merely wish to
warn you for your satisfaction, although it
is not the day of the week.
In his communication of transmittal,
General Otis says: 1.-THE letter is forwarded
to meet still further the absurd charge
that the American authorities in Manila
inaugurated the war" General Otis also
stated that this letter is one of a number
written by Aguinaldo to his friends I'm Ma
Mia warning them to leave the city for
their safety. He adds that many families
left the city in consequence of this warn
ing.
