Claims Justified by the Facts.

We claim that Mont goinery beer is ab- solutely pure a n d wholesome-that it is made from the very best ingredients and by a process that insures againstgerms and all other foreign influences injurious to health.
 If this claim is not justified by the facts, we would like to know it. Montgom- cry beer has been subjected to the se- verest tests known to modern science, with the result that it has been pronounce ed the "purest and best made in this country" Bluff any, body doubts the ac- curacy of this in- dotsement and can point out any defect in the manufacture or our peer, OT SllOW us how we can inn prove it, we will pay very liberaliy for such service. We want to produce nothing but the best. We want our claim to be justified by the facts.
 Ask your physi- clan what beer he would recommend.

Plurality Keats All Records for an
con Year"
Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 8. - With al
most complete returns in it is noted
that the Republican plurality beats all
records in what has become known as
the quadrennial loft year, and with
two exceptions the records of other
years. In the "off years. or those fol-
lowing a presidential election, the
Democrats have carried Ohio, the ex-
ceptions being in 1881 after the death
of Garfield, and in 1885 and 1893, after
the Cleveland elections Wherever To-
cal issues were paramount this year
the Republicans sustained losses, nota-
bly, at Columbus, on account OF local
option, and at Cleveland, on account OF
Mayor Johnson'.s agitation of taxa
ton inequalities" Where no such con-
ditions existed the Republicans MADE
gains and they carried some Democrat
is counties that never before We're rep
resented by the Republicans. Sixty
two counties have Republican plurah-
ties aggregating 9O,s40. Twenty-siS
counties have Democratic pluralitles
aggregating 23,179, making the plural
ity of Nash over Izilbourne for gov
ernor, 67,661, and approximating oooo'
plurality for other candidates on the
Republican state ticket.

London, Nov. 9.-TEe hearing of the
charges against Theodore and Laura

resumed at the Marylebone police
court yesterday before a crowded court
re ON. There were no women in the au-
dience. Laura Faulkner continued her
testimony, which was largely reitera-
ton of that previously given. The most
dramatic incident was when Laura
Jackson began her customary badger
ing cross-examination of the witness,
who pointed her finger at the female
prisoner and vehemently denounced
her as the author of her ruin In spite
of it's melodramat:c tinge, the incident
aroused loud applause, whereupon the
presiding judge threatened to clear the
court, The occurrence seemed to shake
the nerve Of the female prisoner, and
her subsequent conduct of the case
was not marked by the ability which
she has heretofore displayed.

own written confession Charles d.
Thompson, supreme finance keeper of
the supreme tent, knights of the Mac
cabbee and prominent vessel and tug
man of this city, is defaulter in the
sum of $4,000. Mr.. Thompson, how
ever, was heavily bonded in the Ma

and the Fidelity and Deposit Company
of Baltimore, and the order is therefore
protected from loss Thompson made
no effort to escape after his defalcat1on
was discovered. He is now at his home
awaiting the action Of the bonding
companies.
The first intimation of the shortage
came last Tuesday afternoon when
Supreme Commander Marley and Su-
creme Recordkeeper George j. Slgle
were checking over the financekeeper's
books. An error was discovered and
they called Thompson's attention to 1t.
He said he would take the books and
papers home with him that night and
look it up.
Wednesday morning he came to Su-
preme Commander Markey's office and
confessed that mis- accounts were short
ST., 900. He then and there signed a
written confession of the embezzle-
ment. An examination of the books
followed and the
| Shortage Was Disc1Oscd.
The companies on Mr.. Thompson's
bond were notified of the shortage yes
terday and representatives of each are
now on their way to Port Huron. Mr..
Thompson is at his home awaiting
their arrival ana whatever action they
may take. He. is not under arrest but
says that he expects to be arrested and
prosecuted and is prepared to pay the
penalty of his breach of trust
The heavy loss sustained by the
Thompson Towing and Wrecking COM
pany of this city, of which Thompson
is a member, on the steamer Harlem,
which they raised from the bottom OF
Lake Superior, is responsible for the
defalcation. Thompson said yesterday
afternoon that ne used the funds of tho
order in this enterprise, which proved
Improbable as the expense of raising
and refitting the craft was so great
that she had 60 be sold at loss OF
$75,O 900 instead of profit. 1t is expected
an effort will be made Thompson
