THAT REORGANIZATION PLAN.

In his speech at the annual banquet
of the Chicago Bryan League at tho
Sherman. House, Chicago, Tuesday
night, Mr.. Bryan said.
Il am now private citizen, with eS-
cellent prospects of remaining such. |

cussion of public questions and do not
desire to be embarrassed by being
placed in the attitude of candidate
for any office.
''The Democratic party was never
IN better fighting condition than 1t is
today. 1t is not necessary to discuss
the subject of reorganization further
than to say that reorganization is an
internal remedy and that 1t cannot be
applied externally. A person must be

Some seem to think that they can be

IF any one Is inclined to attribute
recent defeats to the platforms adopt
ed or to the organizations in charge
of the fight let him remember that tho
defeat of 1896 came ut the close OF an
administration entirely satisfactory to
those who are most anxious to reor,
ganize the party, and that the defeat
In 1894, which occurred under sini-
lar administration was more disastrous
than any that has taken place since.
mo man can foresee the condi.
tions which our party must meet, but
we can face the future with the deter

rights 10 all and special privileges to
none.

Married Woman Leaves Warren With
out Her Husbands Consent.

Two we'll known Warren people are
supposed to be In this city. There
would not be anything extraordinary
in this fact were it not for the clrcum-
stances surrounding their leaving the
Trumbull county capital.
1t is claimed that the have long
loved one another despite the fact that

The story as sent out from Warren,
follows:
Fremont NJ. Harsh reported to the
authorities today that his wife had
disappeared with Emery Battles. Bat
ties is over so years old, while Mrs.
Harsh is but 35. Until Battles appear
ed upon the scene she was a devoted
wife and mother. Mrs. Harsh, before
going, sent two of the daughters to a
neighbor's and two sons to a barn to
wait for their father. Mr.. Harsh on
coming to Warren found that the bag
gage Of the couple had been checked
to Akron. 1t appears that the pres

has been the subject of controversy
for several months. Mrs. Harsh left
behind six children, three boys and

YOUNG WOMAN
Had a Pull With Several
Senators.
Accused of Presenting Order Bearin
Forged Signature.

Washington, Jan. 10.--Miss Annie
f. Byran Of Cincinnati O., a $1,000
clerk in the postoffice department, was
arrested and placed in the house of
detention here last night Oh charge
of petit larceny.
The specific accusation is that Miss
Byran presented forged order on
the stationery department of the
United States senate for goods, using
the name of Senator Hanna, and OBJ
tanned the same. The keeper Of the
stationery room of the senate, Col
Richards, is the ostensible com
plainant.
Miss Byran sent for several senators
after her arrest, and was finally re-
leased on bail.
The stationary rooms OF the senate
and house contain almost every de-
scribable article. The goods Miss
Bryan is alleged to have taken are
pigskin pocketbook with watch in
the corner, silver link purse, a
chatelalne, two penknlves, writing
paper and drum basket.
The police and all connected with
the case are exceedingly reticent, but
from the information obtainable to-
night it appears that the order for
these goods bore the name of a
prominent senator. Miss Bryan pre-
sented the order and received the
goods. When the order was shown to
the senator he repudiated it and de-
clared it had been forged. The police
do not assert that Miss Bryan is
guilty of forgery, but claim the work
was done by an employe of the SEN
ate, whose name they refuse to dis.
close, as he is now ont OF the city
and detectives are looking for him.
They claim that he will be appre-
hendcd before noon tomorrow.
Miss Bryan Is most progresses
ing young lady about twenty four
years of age. She has been employed
in the government departments here
for several years.

CHANGE OF CLIMATE
Not Necessary to Cure Catarrh.

The popular idea that the only cure
for chronic catarrh is IA change OF
climate, Is n mistake because catarrh
Is found in all climates in nll sections
of the country; and even If n change
of climate should benefit for time the
catarrh win certainly return.
Catarrh may he readily cured in any
climate, but the only way to do it is
to destroy or remove from the system
the catarrhal germs which cause ali
the mischief.
The treatment by inhalers, sprays,
powders and washes has been proven
almost useless in making Il permanent
cure, as they do not reach the seat
of disease, which Is in the blood and,
can be reached only by an internal
remedy which acts through the stom-
ach upon the blood and system gener-
ally.
A new discovery which is meeting
with remarkable success In curing ca
tarrh OF the head, throat and bron-
chial tubes and also catarrh of the
stomach, is sold by druggists under
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
These tablests which are pleasant
and harmless to take owe their eff
cheney TO the active medicinal prin.
clples Of Blood Root, Red Gum and
new specific called Guaiacol, which
together with valuable antiseptics are
combined in convenient, palatable tab.
let form, and as valuable for children
as for adults.
Mr.. A. Il. Fern Of Columbus, o.,
says: l suffered so many winters
from catarrh that took 1t as a mat
ter of course, and that nothing would
cure 1t except change of climate,
which my business affairs would not
permit me to take.
My nostrils were always clogged up,
| had to breathe through the mouth
causing an inilamed, irritated throat
The thought of eating breakfast often
nauseated me and the catarrh grand.
unlly getting into my stomach took
away my appetite and digestion,
My druggist advised be TO try a
fifty cent box Of Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets, because he said he had so many
customers who had been cured of ca
tarrh by the use of these tablets, that
he felt he could honestly recommend
them. took his advice and used sew
eral boxes with results that surprised
and delighted me.
l always keep box of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets in the house and the
whole family use them freely on the
first appearance of cough or cold IN
the head.
With our children we think there is
nothing so safe and reliable as stuart's
Catarrh Tablets to ward off Group and
colds and with older people I have
known Of cases where the hearing had
been seriously impaired nv chronic ca
tnrrh cured entirely by this new rem
edy.

In view of these circumstances the

SAD ACCIDENT
On the Rapid ansit-TriaIs of
Conductors,

The conductor was feeling badly
that morning, anyway. He had had
to stop too many times, was behind
his schedule and had been the victim
of numerous scorching, shrivellng re-
marks from passengers who had
waited unpleasantly long to catch the
car. So, when a party consisting Of
an old lady with a bird cage, q young
lady with n hat box, and putting
youth with a bulgl~g valise came
waving and yelling up a side street a
block away the conductor swore
gently.
The car waited, however, while the
party approached, the bird cage lead
ing and the youth bringing up the
rear. The old lady was on the car
when the youth reached the curb, and
then the youngster stumbled and fell.
The overtaXed valise gave away and
the gutter and street were strewn
with the wearing apparel of the three.
The old lady shrieked, waved the bird
cage, and dismounted; the young lady
blushed and dropped the hat box.
The conductor broke the bell rope.
