NO OPPONENT FOR HEPBURN
May BE Forced to Run a Bye in the
Race for Congress I'm the
eighth.

CREsToN, Ia. Sept. S.-(special.>-
VIII Hon. W. P. Hepburn have any oppo-
sition for the position of congressman
from the Eighth district is the question
Just now. At the democratic congress
sional convention here a week or two ago,
after vainly e~ndeavoring to persuade
Claude Porter, v. R. McGinnis, j. r. Sui
Ivan and others to take the nomination,
they finally decided upon a man whom they
thought would make the almost hopeless
race, In the person of w. T.. Davis Of
Hamburg. Mr.. Davis, however. does not
seem any more anxious to be sacrificed
for his party than the rest and has an
nounced that on account of Ill health he
will be unable to maxi the race this fall.
At the recent convention held in Dos
Moines the committee from the Eighth
district met and selected Hon. ]. b. Sui
livan OF this place to I'LL the place on the
ticket. When told of their action Mr..
Sullivan appeared very much surprised
and announced that he positively was not
a candidate and would not allow the use
Of his name under any consideration, that
he could not run and that he had not
changed his mind since then and that he
was extremely sorry that the committee
had made 1t necessary for him to again
make that public declaration. 1t is now
likely that the COMMITTEES will not attempt
to again All the place, as all the probable
men have absolutely refused to accept the
nomination, and another convention may
be called in the Eighth district

Do Not TrIfIs with Them
Paine'S Celery
Compound
Permanently Cures Sick and Merry
Gus Headaches that Make
Life Miserable.

Sick and nervous headaches are amongst
the worst ills Of life. The man or woman
who ia subject to headache at Irregular IN
teryals goes through life bearing a load
Of misery and Indebtedness that 10 ter
rible 10 think Of.
Headaches as a rule result from . as
ordered condition Of the nervous system
Mental excitement, loss Of sleep, bodily
fatigue, and disordered digestion are ex-
citing causes. When the brain becomes
tired and debilitated. the whole nervous sys-
tenn is weakened, and headaches result. II
the liver is sluggish, the kidneys inactive
and digestion ~deranged, headaches invaria-
bly, follow. To cure and prevent headache,
the nervous system must be strengthened
and yitalized. The most persistent cases
OF headache, nervous feebleness. and sleep
lessness, are permanently cured by Paine's
Celery Compound; Il is the great recon
structant OF the nervous system. Mrs.
Henry westrick. st. Clair. Mich, tells OF
her release from suffering as foIlows:-
81 have been troubled with dyspepsia
and sick headache for a number Of years.
About every week / would have a bad spell
OF sick headache, but since I began using
Paine's Celery Compound. my dyspepsia is
gone, and l do not have any more head
aches. / feel better than l have for
years"

CEDAR FALLS. Ia. Sept. 5.-(special,)-
H.. N. silliman. the banker OF this city, who
is suing the Kirkwood hotel Of Des Moines
for $1,000 damages, is one Of the best known
bankers OF the state.
He attended the bankers convention last
May and was elected from his room at the
Kirkwood at the point Of a revolver in the
hands Of the clerk, so he says. The hotel
was crowded and the clerk wanted to put
other guests In the room.
The proprietors afterward wrote a letter
OF apology and enclosed a check refunding
the price paid for the room, but this does
not satisfy the banker. He dressed in the
hall OF the hotel, where his clothing was
thrown and spent the remainder Of the
night at another hotel.

HINDOO
Ways of the Journalistic Craft in tn e
Far Orient.

In candor and ingenuity of excuses the
average editor might learn something from
his Hindoo brother, says the Los Angeles
Herald. When the first copy of a new
Hindoo paper made It's appearance re-
Gently nearly half Of 1t consisted of empty
columns. The following editorial note,
however, explained the vagary: 1--WE re-
greet that this, our maiden number, should
lack completeness, due to miscalculation
We thought we had sufficient material and
consequently did not trouble TO collect
more. We can assure our indulgent read
ers that this will not occur again and we
trust that the quality of the contents will
make up for the lack of quantity"
Another Hindoo editor found 1t necessary
to suspend the publication of his paper for
a fortnight without a warning. When the
paper again made it's appearance 1t con-
tanned this notice.: W. regret that, owing
to a misunderstanding with a rival editor,
in which we failed to get of the best OF
the argument, It was necessary for us to
retire Unexpectedly from the conduct OF
this paper for the space Of two weeks,
during which we have had the opportuni-
ties of devising certain improvements
which we propose to introduce into 1t.
The rival editor, we regret to report, ID
still confined to his home"
When the Hindoo editor wishes to rest
for a time from his labors he calmly an
nounces the fact in these or similar words
GAS we are beginning to feel the physical
and mental effects Of a years unremittinG
devotion to the interest Of our readers, we
feel it due to them that we should take the
rest which our labors In their behalf de-
mand and deserve and as a natural conse'
uuence beg to notify that this paper will
cease to appear for the space of -four
weeks
A short time ago an Indian newspapers
appeared with two very conspicuous blanS
columns. on the front page. The editor ex'
planned this eccentricity thus: "We hav'
reserved this space for an exceptionally
powerful article on a subject of universal
interest TO our readers, but at the las
moment we And that the article cannot b.

served for it. 1t will make its appearance

Gov. Gambler Thinks the Montgom-
cry County sherin I'm Contempt.
Atlanta, Aug. 12.-Gov Gambler
has summoned the Prison Commits
sion and the Attorney General to
meet in his office tomorrow morning
to consider the case of Sheriff B. E.
Higgs of Montgomery county. who has
failed and refused to release from
custody w. B. Freeman, who was re-
Gently pardoned. The circumstances
of the case are more or less fam
liar. Freeman, who has served nine
months Of an eighteen months SEN
tence. though pardoned by Gov.
Gambler on July IL. is still in the chain
gang.
He was leased to a contractor named
Callahan, and il is stated Callahan re-
fused to let him go until the money
which he paid for Freeman's hire, is
refunded. This money. as is customary
in such cases, was probably divided
among the officers of the county Sher-
in Higgs failed to answer the Cover
nor's letter until few days ago, and
a telegram sent some days ago, de-
manding to know why he had not re-
leased Freeman, was answered by Mrs.
Higgs. who stated her husband was
away from home, that he had sent the
pardon to the convict camp but that
the lessee had refused to release Free
man until the money was refunded.
The Governor is very anxious to prose-
cute Higgs for what he feels is his
contempt and the conference with the
state officials named is to be held with
that object in view.
