Wanted to Hear From Her Boy Who
Was in Prison.

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 19,-Green-
berry Mcintosh, a l5-year-old boy,
walked all the way from Perry coun-
ty, away up in the mountains, to
see his older brother, who is serving
a four-year term in prison for an Of
Tense of which he is probably inno-
cent. When the convict saw his little
brother this afternoon he burst into
tears. Don't cry said Greenberry
cheerfully, "your term is most out,
and nam said she wanted to hear
from you, so just walked down here
to see you and cheer you up"
He carried curious looking nu-
steal instrument which he called a
"dulcimo," and said he got to stay
all night free at several places when
he played some tunes on his instru-

Royal Qualities

Here is brief tabuaton of the principal points
of Royal Mattress virtue.
l. The Royal Elastic Felt Mattress possesses
sufficient 'give" sOftness that it will readily
conform itself to the shape of the body and thus con-
the best kind of secp=t is softer than the soft
est hair besides possessing elasticity and DUR
ability.
2. 1t possesses heaIthfu resistance, an elias
ITCHY which, while giving away the weight of the
body, continues to exert this sprngness upward
T. 1t is nOn-absorbent of moisture mineral gases
and it's purity is uninfIuenced either by the oils and
moisture of the body, by the surrounding atm0s-
phere--it floats in water.
d. 1t is composed of material which is hostile to
moths vermin and germs of every kind whereas hair
wool and feathers invite these evils
5. This material is evenly distributed and of
such nature to retain its shape and elasticity for
a very long period uninpaired.
6. It's price is sufficiently reasonable so as to
make the comfort and purity it represents far more
worth having than the money it costs.

EFFECT ON THE VOTES
Coal Miners Live Chiefly in
the Republican States.
FEAR DEMOCRATIC WAVE
Should il Sweep Pennsylvania and Other Coal
producing States. There Would be a
Great Republican 0verturnlng'
Results Ten Years Ago
Results Ten Years Ago
Especial to the washington Post)


Philadelphia. Pa, Oct. 13.-It can no
longer be said that coal is out OF pohtlcs'
The dragging of the strike until this pc
Rod of the campaign has unquestionably
alarmed the Republican leaders, and TINS
is the explanat ton of the unusual enorts
made by Quay. Penrose. Platt and Odell
to induce the operators to make some
concessions to the strikers. Up to this
time not Democratic leader of any note
has made an effort to adjust the trouble
between the strikers and the operators
The situation is that every Republican
leader of note is striving to obtain peace,
while the Democratic leaders are charg-
ing the Republicans with prime response
bility for the conditions which brought
about the strike and caused a coal famine
on the verge of winter. There is no
doubt that it will be difficult to induce
many OF the miners of this State to vote
the Republican ticket this year, and 1t
can be frequently heard here that the
Democrats have more than bare chance
to carry the State, although Republican
maiorities in this State of recent years
have been soaring around the 10000
mark.
True enough the Republicans will pile
up such a majority in this city as they
like, for they have the machinery to do
so, and Pattison himself is rather weak
candidate here for the Democrats. Out
in the State, however Pattison is more
than strong. Ordinarily much stronger
than his party outside of Philadelphia,
the coal strike and the Republican dis
sensions give promise of a record-break-
ing Democratic vote, and even if he is not
elected, the usual Republican majority
of Pennsylvania will be so reduced that
al least some half dozen districts may
be won from the Republicans.
WOULD INVOLVE A PARTY DISASTER.
1t is not worth while to predict what
may be the result of the strike upon the
campaign which is now drawing to a
close. To what extent the striking coal
miners of Pennsylvania and the miners at
work in the lbituminous mines may be
disposed to hold the party in power re-
sponsible for present conditions is all
matter o. conjecture One might as well
attempt to say how the coal consumers
the more numerous victims of the trouble
will regard the matter But one thing
is clear. If the coal diggers themselves,
become angry at the Republican party,
and throw their support in force to the
Democracy, it will involve great disas-
ter to the Republicans. A look at the
great coal-producing States demonstrates
how they appear from the Congressional
standpoint. Here are six States and their
coal production in 1900:

LARGE DEMOCRATIC VOTE IN 1892

1t would require no such Democratic
tidal wave as that of 1892 in these States
TO absolutely overturn the present Repub-
lican majority. Less than an equal di
vision in the six States would turn the
trek easily, assuming, of course, thai no
unusual changes occurred in the remain
ing States of the Union.
If there is any considerable Democratic
tidal wave in the country this year the

In the Fifty eighth Congress these
States will have six additional Represen-
tatives, or 107 in all. If the PennsyI-
vania coal strike causes a Democratic
wave in these coal producing States,
there will be trouble for the Republicans.
1t is not conceivable that there can be
an overwhelming turning over in these
States, even if all the coal miners should
vote the Democratic ticket unless. per-
chance, the coal consumers should join
in to make it complete overturning
But politics brings surprises occasionally,
and it is only necessary to revert to the
election which brought in the last Demo
cratic House ten years ago and see how
these States were divided in the Fifty

DANGEROUS KIDNEY DISEASES CURED
Peruna Creating National Sensation in the Cure
of Chronic Ailments of the Kidneys.

Mr.. John Vance, of Hartford City, Ind,
says: "My kidney trouble is much
better. 1 have improved so much that
everybody wants to know what medi-
cine I am using. I recommend Peruna
TO everybody and some have commenced
to use it. The folks all say that if DR..
Hartman's medicine cures me it must be
great."-JOHN VANCE.
Mr.. j. Brake, of PetrO!ea, Ontario,
Canada, writes: "FOur years ago

esSe, which brought me so low the
doctor said nothing more could be
G0Ec for me. Ibegan 10 take Perura
and ManaIin. and In three months
was well man, and have continued
SO ever since. "---J. Brake.
At the appearance of the first symptom
Of kidney trouble, Peruna should be
taken. This remedy strikes at once the
very root of the disease. It at once re-
lieves the catarrhal kidneys of the stag
nant blood, preventing the escape of
serum from the blood. Peruna stimu-
lates the kidneys to excrete from the
blood the accommodating poison, and thus
prevents the commissions which are sure
TO follow if the poisons are allowed to
remain. 1t gives great vigor to the
hearts action and digestive system, both
OF which are apt TO fail rapidly in this
disease.
