Miss Gould has an interesting little
handshake. She has evidently learned
that to protect and preserve her own
hand when giving it to hundreds CT
others, she must do most of the shak-
ing herself. She takes the prol7ered
hand firmly in her own at about elbow
level, holds it there for an instant.
then raises it quickly in an almost
exactly perpendicular line. then sud
denly releases it. She looks directly
into the eyes of the person she is
meeting, and probably not one in
hundred passed on without carrying
with him the conviction that the jolly
faced young woman he has just left
sincerely enjoyed the meeting Boston

CHAT OF THE CORRIDORS.

Last week the President appointed, as
one Of the 10 Justices of the Peace Of
the District of Columbia. Gen. Halbert
e. Paine, who served during the war as
terward Brigadier-General of the yolun-
teers and was brevetted Ma aior-General for
bravery at the siege Of Port Hudson,
where he lost a leg. He served three
terms in Congress from the Milwaukes
district, and was Commissioner OF Pat
ents for one term. He has practiced pat
ent law in this city. He is regarded as
an able man and an accomplished attor-
ney. number of Senators and other
high officials indorsed his application for
appointment.
Col John S. HarwoOd, of Richmond,
Chairman of the National Legislative
Committee of the Travellers Protective
Association Of this country, called at the
White House last week in the interest OF
the bill which has been pending in Coz
gress several years providing for a De-
partment of Commerce, with a Cabinet
officer at its head. The association had
ago, and it was favorably reported in both
House and Senate. President Mckinley
was understood to be heartily in favor of
its passage, and it is believed that Presi-
dent Roosevelt will make a favorable
recommendation of this proposed depart

Secretary Long renews his recommenda-

Admiral be revived, for whose especial
benefit he does not say, but presumably
for RearAdmiral Sampson.
After six and one-half years service as
a member of the United States Civil
Service Commission, Maj. John b. Harlow
retired from that position last week and
was succeeded by Mr.. William Dudley
Foulke, of Indiana. Maj. Harlow served
four years in the 4Tth ILL.,, and rose to be
Second Lieutenant. Last Friday the
employees presented him with a hand
some silver service. The gift was ac-
companied by an engrossed testimonial
stating that the retiring officer was held
in high esteem by all attached to the
Commission and carrying hopes of future
prosperity. Commissioner Rodenburg,
Chief Examiner Serven and Law Clerk
Wales were the committee having the mat
ter in charge. The presentation was made
at the residence of Maj. Harlow.

the Hall. So, charging her to remain 81
lent, l packed the dead body of my
brother in one of my large trunks and
went to the inn, where hoped to be able
to go through with the dreadful business
without detection. But my niece, seeing
that nothing she could say would avail
anything, was still determined to save me
from the crime l was about to commit.
Disgusting herself in suit of mans at
tire, she followed me, and took lodgings
at the Blue Stag Inn, where l had stopped
for the night. Fearing that she would not
be able to foil me in my attempt, without
exposing me to the world, she conceived
the idea of drugging me, and to this end
she procured the drug and bottle of brandy
at the village store. But l penetrated her
disguise and so her plans failed. In de-
spair she left the inn, and when she was
gone l carried out the dreadful business

body of my dead brother from the trunk,
which l had carried into my room, |

to free her from the dreadful suspicion.
This is the whole story. l have been
guilty of most shocking crime but am
willing to pay the penalty"
Thus the story was finished, and the
mystery that had been the sensation of
the village and surrounding country was
at last solved.
As Col. Withers attempted to leave the
court room he fell senseless on the floor,
and was carried to the inn. When life
returned to him he was hOpelessly insane,
and died a month later.
1t was the belief Of those who knew
him that he had not been in his right
mind since the loss of his fortune, and it
was this that accounted for his strange
conduct in the dreadful affair at the Blue
Stag Inn.
Agnes Bennington was Immediately re-
leased from custody after the appearance
and confession of her uncle, and the story
of her heroic struggle to save her kins-
man from the crime he attempted to COM
nit found its way into all the papers
throughout the country, and those who
had locked on her with suspicion during
the dark days of her Imprisonment were
now the first to offer her their friendship
and sympathy.
She and Gilbert March are now mar
ried and living happily in one of the great
cities of the East, far away from the spot
where she had endured and suffered so
much.

THAT is something that any physician,
if he would take the trouble to make
an examination, could easily answer. The

furniture in the room?"

A visible sneer curled the lips of the
Prosecuting Attorney.
He leaned over toward Dillon and said:

Dillon smiled good humOredly.
"AllOw me to congratulate you on your
remarkable penetration" he said, with a
dry smile. Then he turned to the witness.
How long had life been extinct when
the wound was made in the breast Of the
victin?" he asked of the doctor.
1T would be impossible for me to say
as to that, but it was done after all life

WANTS VINDICATl0N.
Gen Lew Wallace Asks 1t of the Army of the
Tennessee.

The chief incident in the meeting of the
Army of the Tennessee at indianapolis
was the reading and discussion of letter
written by Gen. Lew Wallace, of Craw-
fordsville. The letter was read by Gen.
Hickenlooper, Corresponding Secretary of
the Society, and was an Acknowledgement
of the courtesy and kindness of the So
ciety in inviting Gen. Wallace to become a
member.
Gen. Wallace set ont that he had been
a member of the Society, and had several
his membership after the first three or
four meetings for the reason that he
found in the Society at that time many
who were unfriendly to him because Of
the discussion that grew out of the battle
become a member if the Society would
do him justice by appointing commits
sion TO review and report upon his con-
duct ON the occasion of his march front
Crumps Landing to Pittsburg Landing.
He offered to pay all expenses connected
with the investigation.
Gen. Hickenlooper said that the Society
had never in any shape or form voiced
the charges of which Gen. Wallace com
planned.
After some discussion Gen. Russell A.
Alger suggested that the letter be ac-
knowledged In kindly manner, and that
the letter itself be not published in the
official record.

shall have to publish the letter"

claims made by yegetarlans and food cranks
generally.
As compared with grains and vegetables,
meat furnishes the most nutriment in high
ly concentrated form and Is digested and as
simulated more quickly than vegetables or
grains
DR.. Julius Remusson on this subject says:
Nervous persons, people run down in health
and of low vitality should eat plenty OF
meat If the digestion is too feeble ut first
it may be easily Strengthened by the regu-
lar use OF Studrt's Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal. Two OF these excellent tablets
taken after dinner will digest several thOus-
and grains OF meat, eggs or other animal
food in three or four hours, while the malt
dlaStase also contained In Steuart's Tablets
cause the perfect digestion OF starchy foods,
like potatoes, bread, etc, and no matter how
weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be
experienced II a regular practice Is made of
using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets because
they supply the pepSin and diastase so
necessary to perfect digestion, and any form
Of Indigestion and stomach trouble except
cancer of the stomach will be overcome by
their daily use.
That large class Of people who come under
the head Of nervous dyspeptics should eat
tion by the systematic use Of safe, harm
less digestive medicine like Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. composed Of the natural
digestive principles peptones and diastase,
which actually perform the work of diges-
ton and give the abused stomach a chance
to rest and to furnish the body and brain
with the necessary nutrlment. Cheap
cathartic medicines masquerading under the
name OF dyspepsia cures are useless for re.
lief or cure OF Indigestion, because they have
absolutely no effect upon the actual dIges-
ton OF food.
Dyspepsia In all its forms is simply
failure of the stomach to digest food and the
sensible way TO solve the riddle and cure the
indigestion is to make daily use at meal time
of a safe preparation which is endorsed by
the medical profession aud known to contain
active digestive principles. and all this can
truly be said of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
All druggists throughout the United
States, Canada and Great Britain sell them
at the uniform price OF fifty cents for full
treatment.

A look of apprehension came over the
face of the Prosecuting Attorney. He
knew the reputation of Dillon, and he
realized that there was something hidden
under those seemingly trivial questions
that might at any moment explode like
a bombshell beneath the structure of
damning evidence he had set up. He
knew that Dillon was one of the greatest
criminal lawyers in the great city. and he
felt his own inferiority in the presence
of the old lawyer.
