Advice.

Nothing SO annoying. Nothing so irritating
AS itching piles or eczema
To scratch the irritation makes it worse.
To leave it alone means misery.
Some citizens can tell you how to be free from
these troubles. Read the following:

A SPANISH COUNT CURED OF LA GRIPPE.

NEARLY everybody is having Ia
IN grippe again. 1t resembles some
what in the beginning severe
cold. A chill or cold spell is followed by
aching bones, sore throat, headache,
cough, and general weakness. Its course
may be quite slight or severe, but in
either case it nearly always leaves one
in miserable condition.
Unless Peruna is taken it will be
weeks or months before a person re-
gains his usual health. If the victim is
fortunate enough to begin the use of
Peruna at the commencement of the
attack the course Of the grip is much
shortened, and the system is left in
natural state.
People who have had la grippe, but
are still suffering from the after-effects,
should not neglect to take Peruna, as il
will promptly restore them to health.

POSTAL INSPECTORS
 ARREST M. A. PRATT
CHARGED WITH USING MAILS FOR FRAUDULENT PURPOSES -A AC- CUSED OF MlSREPREsENTING REAL ESTATE TITLES.

Chattanooga, Tenn. May 3.-(Special)- M. A. Pratt was arrested yesterday even- ing on a warrant sworn out by Postoffice Inspector Greenway, who has developed a case of a very sensational nature. He sets out four separate cases where he alleges Pratt has used the mails for the purpose of defrauding certain individuals out of large sums of money. The cases are as follows:
 During the last year Pratt sent letters to L. Frazier of Lawrenceburg Tenn, de- scribing and offering for sale property near Oil City, Pa. In these communica- tions he represented himself as the agent for the property in question, sending what purported to be an abstract of title to certain real estate. This document it is said, was entirely false, and it is claimed was prepared by Pratt under the assumed name of Hamilton County Ab- stract Co.,. per P" As set forth in the second section of the complaint, letters were sent to J. D. Rust of this city. signed 'P. M. Andrews" In the first of these letters a map was enclosed which purported to be true map of a plat of land near oil City The plat did not then and does not now exist.
 In the third case it is alleged he ob- tained some $500 from Miss Ellen Wiley of Fort Plain. N. Y.
 J. B. Booth of Altoona, Fla, was ad- dressed during the month of September with various letters and postal cards de- scribing and attempting to sell certain real estate. It is alleged the abstracts of title of the property which were sent were in nearly every detail absolutely false.

KID CARTER KNOCKED OUT.
Marvin Hart Landed the Blow After Eight Rounds of Hard Fighting.

Louisville. Ky, May 3.-After eight and a half rounds of terrific fighting Marvin Hart of Louisville knocked out "Ilid'' Carter of Brooklyn before the Southern Athletic Club tonight. The bout was a slugging match up to the sixth round but the pace had been so swift that dur ing the last four rounds both men were staggering around the ring, hardly able to stand. and neither seemed able to land an effective blow
 It was merely a contest of endurance, and the knockoutblow, a left to the jaw. was delivered when Hart himself seemed almost ready to fall. Both men were se- verely punished. Carters right eye was closed, his lip was cut and his face was bloody, while Hart's right eye was badly swollen and the blood was flowing freely from his nose and mouth wheh the bout ended. He had decidedly the best of the bout in the first four rounds. though after that Carter rallied, and from that time till the ninth round when the final blow was struck which put him down and out he seemed to have an equal chance of winning the fight.

CROWD AT STATION
 TO MEET MIR. BRYAN.

The train on which MT. Bryan came from West Point. Miss. arrived about 4:10 o'clock yesterday. Besides the reception committee there were probably 300 per sons at Union Passenger Station who wished to see MT. Bryan and shake his hand. With that same kindly smile and hearty hand-shake he greeted all who came shaking hands with about POO peo- pie.
 Six members of the reception commit tee went down to Brookside and came in on the train with MT. Bryan. They were Mir R. P. Wetmore, chairman of the com mittee, Mr. w. c. Garrett, MT E. A. Wright, Mr. Mack Rittenberry and Mir J. J. B. MoElrath.
 MT. John W. Tomlinson. at whose home Mir. Bryan Will be entertained while in Birmingham, was the first to speak to the distinguished guest. He shook hands with MT. Bryan and then introduced the mem- bers of the reception committee
 After MT. Bryan had shaken hands with all he asked if the private car of Admiral Schley was near. He passed through the gates, still shaking hands. and went around to the side track where Admiral Schley's oar was standing. Mir Bryan and Admiral Schley had met many times before and greeted each other warmly. Admiral 6ohley introduced the Nebras- kan to his wife and Miss Albert. who is accompanying them on the trip. A num- Der of the reception committee crowded into the car and shook hands with the hero of Santiago. While MT. Bryan was cn the admraIs car the train which would carry 1t on to Chattanooga backed

I would hardly be worthy of the confidence you have shown, if did not have a higher ambition than to be Pres ident of the United States. and when 1 say that. l want no one to mistake my meaning, and to think that I would add to the title by having 1t made Emperor of the Philippine Islands. l am too Dem ocratic to desire an ambition that cannot be shared by all the people.
