A aFather confessor.n


The ridiculous claims made by the
Kentucky cabal that is attempting to
convict some one of the murder of Goe
bel. are made more ridiculous by the
testimony given by one William H. Cut
ton, who is himself charged with being
an accessory, in support of his applica-
tion for bail.
1t would appear from his evidence
that he has been verItable Father
confessor. Nearly every one with
conscience weighted down with sin"

to him to have the burden rolled away
The conclusions that are drawn from
the confessions that were made TO him
are that Henry Youtsey killed Senator
GoebeI with a steel bullet, propelled By
smokeless powder and fired from a
rife; Jim Howard killed Senator Goe-
bel with bullet fired from revolver;
DR.. Johnson killed Senator Goebel with
ro-glycerine; Sheriff Burton killed
Senator Goebel in manner unknown.

A Hint for June Weddineg.

An effort is being made to do away
with the wedding shower OF rice. Tiny
soft pink and white waters, a kind of
CONNECTION, are now made and done up
in silver cornucopla- shaped baskets to
take It's place. There is also an lnno-
walton in the form of flowers. A petal
shower is very poetic and far pleasant
er in every way than the old-shoe-and-
rice idea. At the June weddings among
the fashionable set of New York, and
there viii be many, the guests will be
supplied with dainty baskets of oriental
construction filled with mixed flower
petals. which will be showered upon the
happy pair when they leave, for their
honeymoon. The Idea Is to BE- COM
mended for It's originality and can be
followed by those who aspire to things
fashionable at very small expense,

results OF the highest Interest. on that

means of which the hitherto uncertain
question Of Mycaenaen writing has been
finally settled. In the chambers Of the
buildings have been found a whole Sc

the building the entrance hall of the
mogaron has come to light, and In the
adjoining corridor is large piece OF
fresco representing full size figure OF
n girl In Mycennen costume holding a

grace OF form the figure surpasses any
thing hitherto discovered belonging to
this period. The remains belong to the
great Mycenaen age, about 400 b. c.

Wbal Makes Beauty?

Beauty is made or rnarred by the blood.
When the blood is impure, the checks
grow sallow, the eyes dull, the hair loses
rs luster. When the blood flows through
the veins in pure, rich current, the
eyes sparkle, the skin is clear the COM
plexion beautiful. Women who use DR.:
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, find
that il is a genuine beautiher. BY puri-
flying aud enriching the blood it puts a
bloom on the cheek and brightness in
the eye, which tell the story OF perfect
health.

A Few words Of Warning.

The Intelllgcncer respectfully calls
the attention of the management of the
wheeling base ball club to the fact that
81 they attempt to violate the law and
defy public sentiment tomorrow, they
will meet with more determined OPP
position than confronted them last Sun
day. 1t is not question whether they
have not as good right to violate thc
Sabbath as others who break the law.
The position they take that they do not
disturb the peace and quiet of the Sab
bath is wholly illogical.
The point made by those who are
prosecuting the infractIon OF the law in
this respect is, that the open and public
manner of the ofrense is an impairment
defiance Of the statutes. and IL the door
Is opened in this regard other forms of
amusement, more Objectionable than
base ball. will take advantage of the
opportunity to lnnlct themselves on the
law abiding element of the city, which,
we think, largely predominates, There
fore the Intelllgencer, in the klnusSt
spirit, advises the base ball manage
ment to refrain from further antagoniz-
ing class of people who will not per-
init any further liberalization of thu
Sabbath.
The threats made by the managers of
the wheeling club to enter upon war
of reprlsal and close drug stores. res
taurants and the parks will have no
weight with the people who are back of
the prosecution. Besides. II they pur-
sued such a foolish policy they would
distinctly ALLEVIATE an element that gives
the sport the most liberal patronage on
week days. We trust the management
may see the case in the light presented
here and avoid any further aggravation
of the offense of last Sunday. 1t will
not be tolerated under any clrcan-
stances.
