CLARK'S LAWYER
 ON THE STAND Related His Connection With the
 Witness Lyons. AS TO BECKFORO LETTER He Denied Emphatically Hills State- ment That He Had Opened the Letter Bearing on tha Prose-
 cution of Whiteside
AS TO BECKF0RO LETTER

Washington, February 2S.-In the Clark case today Hon. Andrew J. Campbell, the Montana membe- of the house of represen- tatives and senior counsel for the prosecu- tion of the Clark case, asked to be sworn. MT. Campbell first related his connection with Thomas F. Lyons. one of the witnesses for the defense. He said that Lyons came to him saying that he had story to tell. but that he wanted s5,OOO for tesifying be- fore the state supreme court or senate com mittee. Mir. Campbell said he told Lyons that he could not pay him for testifying, but that he would pay him for his work in looking up corroborative testimony. MT. Myers had told him after that he had made a deal with the Clark people by which they secured the votes of the Jefferson county delegation, including Senator Warren and Representatives Luddy and Hill.
 MT. Campbell said Ben Hill had come to fis office and volunteered to relate his ex- periences as worker for MT. Clark. Hin complained, he said, that the Clark people had treated him badly and had asked him for money. He had then given Hill s160 and had told him that he would pay him for other services in collecting testimony.
 At the afternoon session MT. Campbell said that while he had attended the con- ference of friends of MT. Clark, which re- suited in the anti-Daly campaign he had not heard much of the talk, having gone to sleep. He did not become unfriendly to MT. Clark until he became dissatisfied with his campaign methods. He emphatically de- nied Ben Hills statement that he (Camp- belD had opened the Bickford letter bearing upon the prosecution of MT. Whiteside, but confessed that he had advised Hill to open it, adding:
 ''I was not familiar with the statutes at the time, but if 1 had been l would not hes- tate to open letter to shield Mi. Whiteside when 1 knew there was a scheme on foot to send him to the penitentiary, on a charge of which he was not guilty
 MT. Campbell was the stand when the committee adjourned for the day.

IMPURE BLOOD.
A Sluggish and FiIth-Laden Stream the
 Cause of Salt Rheum.

Scrofula, Erysipelas and other terrible blood diseases.
 It is blood that feeds the different organs of the body-keeps them going at their nor nal pace. If for any reason the blood can not carry this nutriment, the entire system suffers-debility follows, and eventually complete breakdown occurs.
 Rich, red, lively blood is needed. The only true way to nourish, purify and enli- ven the blood is to use

Nearly sixty years ago, Dr. Radway first prepared Railways Ready Relief for the use of practicing physicians. The general public soon learned the value of this renhe- dy, and it early attained wide popularity Its name is now among the most familiar of househould words. After the reputation of the Ready Relief had become established, Dr. Radway, recognizing the universal de- mand for reliable carthartic, began the preparation and sale of Railways RegulHt- ing Pills. Railways Sarsaparillian Reso1-s vent soon followed, and the phenomenal success of these remedies was the wonder of the day. So popular have these prepara- tions become. that their sale has extended to all pants of the world, and scarcely a ship sails from New York, Boston, San Francisco, or any other American port, without including in its cargo supply Of these medicines.

Two Large Gas Engines.

Gas and Oil engine development has
not been encouragingly. rapid, except
where relatively small powers are con-
cerned, and the large engine, of 100
horse power and more, has been slow
indeed in convincing the power user
that it is the kind of engine which
may reasonably be expected to work
satisfactorily and all things consid-
cred economically. It is worth moth
ing, therefore, that plant of eight
large gas engines, four Of 260 horse
power and four of 210 horse power
each, has been reported as about to be
Installed at the Lots road pumping
station of the London County Council,
and will thus afford the latest evidence
of the important work which engines
of this class may be expected to sue
cessfully perform. The plant will
probably be the largest one Of tho
kind in existence.-Cassier's Magazine.

Greater New York prison magazine .
year ago. The object Of the publica-
ton is to interest the prisoners. 20 in
spire them to literary effort and to
promote among them that evanes;ent
principle called esprit de corps.
Mr.. Lantry issued a prospectus .
month ago in which he set forth tLe
advantage to be gained from the publi-
cation of the magazine. He asked those
who wished to contribute to send In
their names to the warden of the rAr-
ticular institution in which they hap
pened to be detained.
Fifty of the prisoners sent in aTaiia-

tributors sent in two or three articles.

barrassed on "make-up' day. Being

found 1t hard to give explicit directions
