Vegetable Compound is a medi-
cine of rare virtue, and having seen
dozens of cures where my suffering
sisters have been dragged back to life
and usefulness from an untimely grave

KNEW THE JUDGES VOICE.
And Refused to Believe the Judge
when He Answered the
Telephone.

+ Justice Jerome, of New York, sat
in his room, adjoining the court OF
special sessions, the other afternoon.
Between cigarettes putfs he was par.
rying the question of half dozen
inquisitive reporters, when the tele-
phone bell began ringing vigorously,
reports the Times of that city.
In the absence of his clerk and
secretary the justice thought 1t not
beneath his dignity to play telephone
boy and this is the one-sided conver-
sation that convulsed the newspaper
men with laughter:
This is Justice Jerome. What do
you want?" A short pause.
mo, it is not the clerk; it is the
justice himself. What do you want?
Spit it out"
"Humph! Not the justice, you say?
Well, l was when ] got ont OF bed
this morning and looked in The glass.
I guess l haven't changed my iden-
tity since then. You want the JUS
tice, you say? Well, you have him
now fire away.
"Oh, you say, you know the justice
well and that this isn't his voice?
Well, who the deuce am l, then?
Some fresh Office boy, eh? Well, !
cant waste any more time on you"
And up went the receiver with bang.
81 suppose l ought to have that fel-
low, whoever he is, arrested for con-
tempt in calling the court liar and
a fresh office boy" said the judge,
with mock dignity, as he resumed his
interrupted conversation with the re-
pOrters.

How Russia Prevents Riots.

Riots and disturbances are prac-
tically unknown in all the vast EN-.
pire of the ezar, stretching as it does,
in an unbroken line from the Baltic to
the Pacific. The reason for this is the
wise precaution arising from the pop
ulation fraternizing with the military,
says Pearson's Magazine. The gov
ernment distributes the troops in
such way that they have nothing in
common with the population. Tar
tars are sent to districts where there
are no Tartar compatriots, the Poles
and Little Russians go to st. Peters,
burg, the Caspian regiments to Kron-
stadt-thousands of miles from home
and the purely Russian troops are
stationed in Poland, Caucasia, Finland
or any other district that might pos
sibly cause the government trouble.

age, the son Of Geo, Cade and had been

in-law in an unconscious condition
with his head in a pool OF blood. 1t was
found that he was shot under the chin,
the ball passing up through his tongue
so that he was unable to talk after he
had regained consciousness, But he
was able TO make his brother under
stand that the revolver had gone off ac-
cidentally. 1t is generally supposed
that something about the gun had
caught and while looking into it endeav-
oripg to fix it the weapon had been dis.
charged.
Or, 1t is thought by some Of his friends
that he may have tripped on some bush
and fallen in such way as to discharge
the pistol. Although only partially con-
scious, he was able with the assistance
Of his brother-in.law who found him, to
walk to the house. But the bullet had

his front teeth and glanced back
through the palate and entered the

That this is big country is again
Illustrated by the varying weather
conditions in its different parts. The
east has had rather n surplus OF rain
during the spring months, But in some
sections of the west they are suffering
from drought. A dispatch from North
Dakota says; "No rain, and IL is very
dry. II will have to rain before long
or we will get no crop again this year,
and II we don't this country will go
broke" North Dakota Is big state,
and the failure of the grain crop there
would certainly be very serious
thing. 1t is to be hoped the longed-
for rain may soon put in an appear
once. The east could have very well
spared large quantity of the mois-
ture which deluged this section in

The city council at its last meeting
passed an ordinance prohibiting the
sale Of the soft drinks" such as hop tea
and hop ale etc. containing so small a
per cent of alcohol as not to come under
the prohibitions Of the State law. Many
and peculiar are the comments heard
from the visitors to the town. While
there are few who speak as
though the wet goods are still not diff
cult to obtain, the most Of those who
come to town talk quite differently.
Some men on the street we're asked the
other day where they were from. They
replied, From Castleton, d. D." When
asked to interpret, they said that meant
from Castleton, d. dry. II was reported
on the streets the day after the council
passed the above ordinance that they
would next shut out the lemonade stands,
whereupon some wag went one better
and said they were going to dig a ditch
and turn Cow Creek across into the Ar
kansas few miles above town. There
are probably others who will blame the
council for the protracted drouth, but as
that extends for a considerable distance
outside the city limits, 1t would be more
logical to attribute it TO Mark Hanna
