Chicago, Sept. 10.-If any further proc.
were needed that Leon Czolgosz was
the guest of Chicago anarchists shortly
before he vent to Buffalo or his MUIR

Kinley, 1t vas supplied yesterday by
three of the prisoners in the central

The eleven men and women who are
avowed anarchists were formally

commit murder. They will be taken
before Justice Prindvile his morning

that the prosecution will ask for a con-

Captain Colleran.

HOW WOMEN "sTAND BY"
Refutation of an Ancient slander Upon
the Fair Sex.


Ainslee's Magazine: Once in a while
some Rip Van Wrinkle wakens from
his nap, and gives utterance to
the venerable aphorism that women
do not stand by each other. There are
actually a few specimens who believe this,
but they are antediluvians.
There Is nothing more certain, and few
things more obvious. than that women
stand by each other as Loyalty as ever men
have done; but standing by" with woman
means more. 1t means standing by her
babies, and providing a day nursery or
creche for them while she stands by
somebody's washtub. 1t means giving to
their baby fingers the beautiful employ
ments OF the kindergarten. 1t means
teaching her sons and daughters TO do
things as well as to know them, and Il
means establishing truancy schools, bet
ter called parental schools, when her au-
thorlty has been worn t~hreadbare, II
means giving them a decent city to grow
up In, and furnishing public libraries, and
public baths, and gymnasiums, and
"piecening out'-as one poor woman ex-
30 much to be desired. 1t means girls
clubs and boys clubs: it means women's
and children's hospitals, and homes for
incurables and for the old and helpless.
To stand by, to a woman, means to
supplant the blue cow Of eastern legend,
or the tortoise or atlas. and bear the
world, not only on ones head and should
theless, all over this world women are
doing it, quietly and gladly, without
sounding of loud timbrels or blowing of
trumpets.

Couldn't Wear Shoes.

Sumpter, H.. Sept. 9.-Mrs. j. b,
Flanagan of this place had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She was
so very bad that for the last three years
she has not been able to wear her shoes.
She had doctored all the time, but was
gradually getting worse.
Last winter Mr.. Flanagan, who was
very much discouraged, called for some
medicine at Mr.. j. j. Dale's drug store
in Carmi. Mr.. Dale persuaded him to
have his wife try Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and he bought six boxes. His wife
used five out of the six, before she was
entirely cured. She Is now as sound
and well as ever she was, completely
restored to health. and free from any
symptom whatever of Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanagan is pleased
at her wonderful deliverance does not
half express her feelings, and she and
Mr.. Flanagan are loud In their praises
Of Dodd's Kidney Pills, and of Mr.. Dale
for recommending this wonderful rem
edy to them.
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan of such n severe
case Of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the most
talked Of remedy ever known In White
County.

LOOKING FOR MAGGIE.
Secret Service Men After Man Who Pre-
dicted Assassination.

Mobile, Ala, Sept. 10.-Secret service
agents yesterday sought out and inter-
viewed the former members of the An
drews Opera company who remained In
Mobile when the troupe left for Kansas
City for the purpose OF learning what
they could about Antonio Maggie, the
former cornet player OF the company,
who Is alleged to have told Fritz HUT
man, another member OF the company,
last March, that President Mckinley
would. be assassinated before the 1st
OF October this year. The department
Is anxious to locate Maggie. He Is
thought by former members OF the
Andrews company TO be still In or
about Silver City, N. M.
1t is thought by the former members
here that Maggie has a brother in
business in Leavenworth, Kan. He Is
said to be a merchant.
L~eaVenworth, Kan. Sept. 10.-Antonio
Maggie is well known In Leavenworth.
He was a member Of the soldiers home
band for about eight months. and also
played with a local orchestra. A
brother, Frank, Is now employed as a
barber in n local shop. The two broth
ers were born In Palermo, Sicily. An
tonic came to America eight years age
and lived for several ear In New Or
leans. Antonio Maggie left Leaven-
worth last January with the Andrews
Opera company as a musician, and his
friends have not heard from him since
that time, except In a rumor that he
had been sent to the penitentiary in
Missouri for killing a man in that state.
Frank Maggie, asked where his brother
is, replied:
The last l heard from him was In
Silver City. n. NJ, In an orchestra
there. L believe he is there yet. ]
heard of his killing a man In Missouri
and being sent to the penitentiary, but
do not believe It,"
When told that his brother had pre-
dicted President McKinley's death,
Maggie said:
Maybe he did. I don't know whether
he belonged to any secret societies or
not. He was q kind of a socialist, and
lived in Louisiana, where the members
Of the Malta were thick"
Ibid he ever say anything to you
about an order to kill McKinley?"
asked the reporter.

around q whole lot. l never lived with

Easy Come. Easy Go.

The man who creeps along bent over,
with his spinal column feeling in a
condition to snap like a pipestem at any
minute, would readily give a great deal
to get out Of his dilemma, and yet this
is only the commonest form by which
lumbago seizes on and twists out Of
shape the muscles Of the back. This is
commonly known as backache, a crick
in the back, but by whatever name 1t
may be known, and however bad 1t may
be, ten minutes vigorous rubbing with
st. Jacobs Oil on the afflicted part will
drive out the trouble and completely
restore. 1t is a thing so easily caught
1t may be wondered at why there is not
more of 1t, but because II is so easily
cured by ST. Jacobs Oil may be the
very reason that we hear so little Of it

RAISES DOGS FOR THE MEAT.
L.. III. Patrick Has Unique stock Farm
Not Far From China.

Chicago Chronicle: Il. II. Patrick, a
guest at the Auditorium has probably
the most unique stock farm in the world.
1t Is near Midway, Caroline islands. AL
though Mr.. Patrick raises animals for
market, no bleating of sheep or lowing
Of kline disturbs the silence on his
farm. Instead OF these pastoral noises
there is the sharp barking Of dogs.
These are the animals he raises for the
market, for the Chinese esteem a young
dogs flesh as highly as the gourmands
OF more civilized countries esteem lamb
or tender veal.
To the epicures OF China Mr.. Patrick
looks for the patrona ge that keeps his
business alive. He stumbled upon the
peculiar business altogether by acct
dent. He was travelling in China when
he found that although the Chinese
considered dogs as staple articles Of
food. no attempt had been made to
raise them for market. Shortly after
ward when he had remoNed TO the Car
oline islands he put his idea into eXe-
cution and his stock farm is now the
biggest institution on the island.
Up to the present MIR. Patrick had
bred nothing but the native Chinese
dogs. They are not so large as the av-
erage dog Of this country and, probably
being so few generations removed from
AAAO Will AiNg u Acbo' 80 Ai'N "a
choice article for the table. 1t is to
remedy this by cross breeding that Mr..
Patrick has visited the United States,
He wi. leave This morning for the east
where he will buy a number Of blooded
st. Bernard dogs, which he will ship
to Midway.
II have peer shipping the dogs to
Annoy, China said Mr.. Patrick last
night, and each month ] manage TO
send from 100 to 125 Oun animals.
These animals are sent alive and are
killed in the native butcher shops as
they are needed. / hope within the
near future to be able to send the car
cases in r~efrigerators, for hen they
will command a far better price"
Mr.. Patrick has been feeding his dogs
goat flesh for the most part, but he in
tends to investigate the latest discov-
cries in dog foods before returning to
his farm. He believes that pemmican.
such as Explorer Baldwin took with
him or his Arctic exploration trip.
would prove highly Beneficial on his
farm. The pemmican IS fattening to a
great degree and samples will be Sc
cured from the Chicago packers.

Consolation and Comfort.

Who Is It that does not wish to be out
In the open air or alive In some field Of
sport, whether 1t be with the bat, rod
or gun; whether we go coasting over
the hills and wales on the wheel or sail
Ing over rough waves or into serene
coves, 1t is all sport, and the springing
muscles seem to need 1t. 1t is bound
to happen that some mlShap will occur.
Thus 1t Is that we have sprains In
abundance. Light sprains, sprains that
cripple, sprains that give great pain.
sprains that rob us Of sleep, but sports
men Of all kinds have come to know
that there is nothing better than the
old, reliable st. Jacobs Oil. Have 1t
with you for use; you may rely on Its
cure Of the worst sprain and restoration
to the comforts Of life.

EFFECT ON THE MARKETS.
Feverish Feeling on Change, But There
Was No Panic.

New York, Sept. 10.-A meeting Of the
committee Of the clearing house was
held before the stock market opened
today. At the close OF the meeting
Tappan said the associated banks had
the financial situation well in hand.
The stock market opened with general
declines Of one to three points.
Leading railroad stocks were the
severest sufferers, Changers, Paciflcs,
Southwestern, United States Steel and
Amalgamated Copper, showing declines
of over five points. The influence Of
supporting orders in the market made
itself felt quickly n there were Inn
mediate rallies OF from one to two
points. Very heavy blocks kept coming
out, however, II the market main
tanned a feverish and excited tone.
The clearing house committee adj
journed without having taken any ac-
ton. 1t was said no financial assist
nee had been required owing to the
fact that the stock market opened
without q panic. 1t was
President Tappan would remain at the
clearing house to meet any emergency
that might arise.
