MIR. BINGHAM ASKED
 FOR AN INVESTIGATION
Says That Ills Deputies Had No Hand in Bringing on the Trouble at
 Dadeville.

Julian H. Bingham. collector of internal revenue for Alabama and chairman of the executive committee of the Bingham wing of the republican party has requested the commissioner of internal revenue to cause an investigation to be made of the trouble that occurred at the fifth district repub- lcan convention, recently held at Dade- vile, in connection with which it has been charged that he CBingham) had armed mob of deputy collectors and other officials on hand to carry his point. In speaking of the matter yesterday, MT. Bingham said:
 Ut is not true, was stated in the ar tce appearing in yesterdays Age-Herald, clipped from the Dadevlle Herald that Howle was fired upon from a window in the courthouse where Binghams commit tee was in session.. was chairman of the district committee, and was with the mem- bers in the courthouse, in the court room, at the time of the shooting preparing to call the roll of the committee, and l be- lieve every member of the committee some of whom were not my supporters, will tes- tify that no shots were fired from the window as was stated. In fact, we did not know who did the first shooting, and what was the cause of it. After the first shots were fired, I saw MT. James Howle run into the Talapoosa County bank and re- turn to the door and fire several shots In the direction of the front steps to the courthouse, but did not know at whom he was shooting or what trouble had preceded 1t.
 ''I know nothing of an armed mob at Dadeville. Everything was perfectly quiet, and there was not even any apprehension, so far as I know, of disorder, until the shooting occurred, in which l am informed and believe, only two men were engaged. Some excitement followed, but not more than is usual whe ntwo men shoot at each other where one is seriously injured. Or der was soon restored and there was no fur ther trouble far as l have heard; but as publicity has been given to a statement to the effect that my deputies brought on this trouble, I have requested the honorable commissioner of internal revenue to cause a thorough investigation to be made of the whole affair and to place the blame where it properly belongs"

Placed on Prohibition Ticket in
 Place of Dr., Crumpton.
WILL RUN FOR GOVERNOR
Is Pastor of the Congregational Church at Gate City and Harvard Grad uate-Will Make an Ac-
 tive Campaign

Rev. H. L. Hargett of Gate City has been placed on the prohibition ticket for gov- ernor. to take the place of Rev. Dr. ". B. Crumpton, who declined to make the race.
 It vii be recalled that Dr. Crumpton of East Lake was nominated by the prohibi- tion state convention, which met at Seals hail. in this city, March 2S. Dr. Crump ton was not present at the meeting. and a few days later stated that he would not accept the nomination. The state executive committee, through correspondence, agreed to fill the vacancy on the ticket by sub that of Dr. Crumpten. Dr. Hargett has ac- cepted the nomination, and will make an active canvass of the state, speaking wherever he and the committee deem 1t advisable. The issues upon which the cam paign will be waged, except a fight for prohibition, have not yet been agreed upon. It is probable they will advocate the dis pensary law for the state.

 He was educated at Harvard college and the Theological seminary at Louisville, Ky. He will attend the national convention of the prohibition party in Chicago oil June 12 and immediately after his return begin canvass of the state.

A GOOD C0MPL EXON.
Depends on Good Digestion.

This is almost an axiom, although usually we are apt to think that cosmetics, face powders, lotions, fancy soaps, etc., are the secrets for securing clear complexion. But all these are simply superficial assistants.
 It is impossible to have a good complexion unless the digestive organs perform their work properly, unless the stomach by prop erly digesting the food taken into it fur nishes an abundance of pure blood, a good complexion is impossible.
 This is the reason so many ladies are using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because they promptly cure any stomach trouble and they have found out that perfect diges- ton means a perfect complexion and one that does not require cosmetics and pow ders to enhance it's beauty.
 Many ladies diet themselves or deny themselves many articles of food solely in order to keep their complexion clear. When Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are used no such dieting is necessary. Take these tab lets and eat all the good wholesome food you want and you need have no fear of in- digestion nor the sallow, dull complication which nine women out of ten have, solely because they are suffering from some form of indigestion.
 Bear in mind that beauty proceeds from good health, good health results from per feet digestion and we have advanced the best argument to induce every man and woman to give this splendid remedy trial.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be found in drug stores and cost but 50 cents per package.
 If there Is any Arrangement of the stom- ach or bowels they will remove it and the resultant effects are, good digestion, good health and clear, bright complexion.

WINE VS. COFFEE.
A Test Case

"A wine makers wife on whom I was calling a year or two ago urged me to drink a large cup of very strong coffee when I had declined to take a glass of wine for the reason that the wine affected me unpleasantly. The coffee was so strong that my head reeled and rolled for two or three days, and I decided the wine would have been the more temperate drink after all.
 q had been a moderate user of coffee, but had been suffering from sick head aches for some time, and was becoming very suspicious that coffee was the cause of them. After this experiment the drug power of coffee was made so plain that abandoned it altogether and had long season of hot water drinking, which Is not enjoyable, you will admit.
 After awhile I was introduced to Pos tum Food Coffee, and it proved a joy and promise of pleasure to come. It tasted so much like coffee that I waited for some of the evil effects to develop. They did not come, so I drank it three times a day and still continue. The habit spread from me to the rest of the family. Even father, a confirmed coffee drinker; S4 years old now drinks Postum with great relish, and his health has been better the past winter than for several years.
 ''On Christmas we had a reunion of sev- eral old-time friends and served Postum instead of coffee. One of the ladies, who holds an important educational position, and must care for her nerves, said: Give me the smallest cup-I dare not drink cof- fec She was told that it was not coffee, but was Postum After drinking a little of it she said: never liked Postum be- fore. The way we made it, it was so col orless and flat, but this is delicious, and she passed up for the second cup.
 q explained that she could always have Postum delicious if she would follow the directions as to the amount to use and time to boil" Mrs. M P. Haines, Prospect Park, Cal.

HOWARD OUT OF
 SENATORIAL RAGE Announces His Withdrawal from
 the Contest.
LEAVES MORGAN UNOPPOSED
Will Go to Oregon, Where He Will Make Several Political Speeches. Would Not Accept Guberna-
 torial Nomination

M, ". Howard, former representative in trict, has announced his withdrawal from the race for United States senator to suc- ceed Senator John T. Morgan.
 MT. Howard is one of the most promi- nent populists in Alabama and about three months ago announced that he would be candidate before the state leg islature next winter for the United States senate At the time of making the an nouncement of his candidacy Mir. Howard stated that he would actively canvass the state, but he has not made any speeches so far. He attended the national populist convention in Cincinnati last week and received quite a number of votes on the first ballot for the nomination for presi- dent of the United States. He returned from Cincinnati yesterday morning and went to his home at Fort Payne in the afternoon.
 MT. Howard expects to go to Oregon with in the next few days to make number of speeches in the campaign now in progress in that state. His withdrawal from the race for United States senator leaves Sena- lOf NIlnOul OppOSltIOn Ol dIly It is presumed, however that the anti-dem- ocrats in the next legislature will agree up- on some man for whom they will cast their votes. This vote is not expected to be large, perhaps not over fifteen or twenty out of a total of 193 on joint ballot.
