Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for Indigestion or Bill
BUSINESS. Doctors were scarce, aud
they seldom heard of Appendicitis.
Nervous Prostitution or Heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer
mentation of undigested food, regu-
late the liver, stimulate the nervous
and organic actions Of the system, and
that is all they took when feeling dull
and bad with headaches and other
aches. You only need few doses OF

NEGROES SOLD INTO SLAVERY.
Man Arrested for Selling Them 10
White Planter on an Island.

Ben Milan, colored, an ex-slave of
Lawrence county, Ala, is under ar
rest charged with kidnapping me-
groes and selling them as slaves to the
white manager of Tennessee island
plantation some miles below Decatur.
1t is alleged that Milan would IN
duce negroes to accompany him to the
island with the promise ofsecuring po-
sitions for them on the plantation at
good wages, and that when they
reached there he would sell them in
bondage, when they were confined
within stockades.
It is said that young negro who re-
Gently escaped from the island told
the story and caused the arrest of Ben
Milan. He reports that kidnapped
negro has been confined on this island

ADDERTON TO BE TRIED.
Americas Tragedy to Have Its

Guerry Adderton, i we'll known

ing Charles Mize at a house of ques-

ago. The grand jury of Sumter coun-
ty has returned an Indictment
charging murder, and young Adder
ton is now in custody of the sheriff.
At preliminary trial, Immediately
after the homicide, Adderton was dis
charged upon evidence showing that
the homicide was committed in self
defence, he being badly cut about the
neck during the encounter. What
additional evidence the grand jury Sc
cured, if any, is not known to the pub
lie. Adderton will doubtless insist on
an immediate trial.

NEW TELEPHONES.
Brought Into Use by Installation Of Gen.
trail Storage Batteries.

With the COL a unusually
large telephone switchboard, now near
ly ready at the Cortlandt street ex-
change, says the New York Evening
Post, the entire city will have been
furnished with new and improved
common battery system" the most
noticeable feature of which is that the
subscriber, instead of having to ring
a bell, merely lifts the receiver off its
hook. The system is called by the
above name because, instead of oper-
ating the telephones by means of sepa-
rate batteries placed in the subscrib-
er's house or office, the company pro-
vides number of large storage batter
les at the exchange, which furnish the
current for all.
When the subscriber lifts his receiver
from it's hook, an incandescent light
about the size Of small cranberry be-
gins to glow on the switchboard at
central" This is an improvement on
the old system of using "visuals," such
as may be seen on the switchboards of
private exchanges. When the callgirl
sees this light, she puts a wired plug
into the hole directly under it and is in
immediate connection with the person
calling. On the new switchboard these
holes from center to center are only
one-quarter of an inch apart, so that
each callgirl has within easy reach 49,
600 connections in her own district and
trunk connections with all the other
exchanges in the city, the suburban
connections and the long distance wire.
The new Cortlandt street board, which
is almost ready for use, reaches around
three sides Of a horseshoe shaped room
and is about 300 feet long. In every
six feet of this the entire telephone
connection is repeated. The 10000
calls, incoming, are divided evenly
among the callgirls, but each girl has
to have all the 10000 within easy reach
for outgoing connections. The back of
the board is therefore an astounding
maze of wires and cables.

WALKED INTO A TRAP
AND LATER FOUGHT WITH DESPER-

Struggle Between Burglars and Dep

Kansas Bank.

RILEY, Kan, Feb. 27.-Early this morn
ing gang of supposed bank robbers
walked into a carefully laid trap here. and
the leader, Frank Wharton, alleged to be
an expert safe-blower. was captured after a
desperate fight in the dark. The vault,
containing 100000, was untouched. Some
time ago Wharton came to this vicinity
and, it is alleged, planned with some local
characters TO rob the Riley Bank. One of
the men, named Johnson, became fright
ened and notified the officers. Sheriff d. d.
Finney induced the man to go ahead with
his part of the programme. and yesterday
Johnson notified the sheriff that the raid
would take place this morning. Finney took
two deputies-D. NJ. Person and Harry
Pugh-and the three secreted themselves in
the bank building, leaving the usual light
burning. AT 1:30 Wharton and his COM
panions appeared. accompanied by johnson.
Guards were placed and the leader, with a
short bar, tore the back door entirely OFF
the hinges. He had selected Johnson as his
assistant. Drills, dynamite. fuses and a full
outfit were carried in and arrangements
made to crack the safe.
The sheriff thought it time to interfere
and demanded surrender, but Wharton was
not to be taken. His first move was to
smash the light and in the darkness the
four men fought The robber used his bar
and ,felled the two deputies before they
could get hold of him. The officers could
not shoot because of the danger of hitting
each other. Johnson finally succeeded in
getting a light and Wharton was over
powered and handcuffed. He was taken TO
Manhattan and placed in Jail. His COM
panions fled at the first sign of danger and
have not been captured. The country is be-
ing closely guarded, and 1t is not likely that
they will be able to get away. The depu-
ties were badly injured by the bar in the
fight, but will recover

JUDGE GARY SAYS NEW STEEL
TRUST WILL BE HARMLESS.
Stockholders in Old Companies Pro-
tected-Economy Of Operation In
tended by Concentration.

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-Judge f. III. Gary,
president OF the Federal Steel Company,
giving his views to-day on the j. p. Morgan
& Co. consolidation of steel properties, said
that, while there will doubtless be some dis
appointment among the stockholders of the
respective companies in the fixing OF COM
parative values, which may be considered
too low or too high in some cases, the men
in charge of bringing about the combina-
ton have done everything possible to pro-
tect the interests of all concerned. Judge
Gary said that. in spite of the magnitude OF
the enterprise and the large amount of fig
ures involved, there should be no unfavora-
BILE effect in business circles, for 1T is pro-
posed simply to withdraw from the market
a large amount of stocks representing
many different corporations under as many
different arrangements and place in their
stead the stock of a new corporation. and
the amount of new cash required will be
comparatively small and contributed large
ly by those who are now interested in the
old companies. If the disposition OF the
management of the new company is to Sc
cure increased earnings by economies In
business, and not the result Of unreason-
able prices to the consumer. or unfair
wages to the workmen, surely there can be
no cause for complaint" said the judge.
He continued: There are many large
manufactures of iron and steel, and their
products, involving very large percentage
of the total production in this country,
outside and independent of the concerns in
cluded in the pending negotiations and,
therefore, there will still remain oppor-
tunity for spirited competition in every
line; but there need not be destructive or
unjustifable competition-a competition
that serves only to destroy the properties
and business of the competitor. TO reduce
to a starving point the wages of the work
men, and, finally, greatly TO prejudice even
the consumer.
1.-The contemplated expenditure of, APP
proximately, $780, 10000 by the companies
interested. for extensions, additions and
improvements will mostly become unneces-
sary because the company will, by the
proposed community of interests, be able
so TO concentrate the different departments
OF mining, manufacturing, transportation,
selling and accounting, as greatly TO reduce
| the operating cost; and all materials, raw
| or finished, can be delivered to the nearest
| point of consumption. Steadiness in busi-
| ness must naturally result"
