INDIGESTION.

Many things you fear about your stom- ach cannot be true. If you have had indigestion or dyspepsia for years 1t is natural to be- lieve that the stomach itself is dis easted. It is only the functions of the stomach that are impaired. This is the whole trouble in a vast majority of cases and the proof can be had by trying Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic.
 Your stomach has many things to do and failure to do any one of them leads to imperfect digestion The stomach gets it's nutriment and its digestive fluids from the blood. If the blood is impure or lacks the right proportion of strength-produo- ing iron, the whole body suffers from a kind of breaking down process
 To restore health you must start at the source of life itseIf-the blood-an6 through that vital fluid build up tbe stomach ard other vital organs.
 Dr. Harters Iron Tonic has curaa thousands of cases of indigestion and dyspepsia every year for the past forty five years. IL is the one remedy you can take with certainty of immediate i'm provement and a sure cure
 It Is prepared with scientific accuracy and many eminent physicians prescribe it constantly Faithful use of 1t will an able you to digest your food as perfectly as you ever have. Prepared only by The Dr. Harter Medicine O.. Dayton. O.. Sold everywhere.

OHIO FIGHT CONTINUES
 IN NAMING COMMITTEES

was defeated for the gubernatorial nom nation by Governor Nash two years ago, he was opposed by both Ohio senators. He has kept out of politics until he re- gently came to the support of his old friends-McKinnon and McElroy.
 Senator Foraker is not expected here till next week, when all the committees will be made up. It is proposed then to have a demonstration in the interest of harmony. On Tuesday of next week the two houses vote separately for senator and the next day in joint session they declare the result. Then Foraker is ex- pected to make speech of acceptance. As he was endorsed by resolution at the last state convention for reelection, the Republican joint senatorial caucus this week will be merely a formal affair.
 Colonel W. J. Bryan will not be here tomorrow as previously announced en route to Wooster, Ohio, where the Jack son day banquet is hela tomorrow night, two days in advance of the anniversary so as not to conflict with other engage ments of Mir Bryan. Mayor Tom L. John son, who came here yesterday with the Cuyahoga delegation to attend the open ing of the legislature, has returned to Cleveland to meet Bryan there.

"THE MORE YOU SAY THE LESS PEOPLE REMEMBER" ONE WORD WITH YOU
 SAPOl 10

The love which lighted the eyes of the royal pair at the wedding has not waned. I have met the Prince Consort often. He Is a fine, manly fellow, and a good type of the lover. Even if I had no evidence of the falsity of the abominable charges I should say priori, that he was in- capable of them. He has a comfortable income, and apart from that the Dutch law provides for him.
 'I know also Major Van Tets, of the royal household He is not duelist, and never fought one with the Prince Con- sort or anybody else A slight indisposi- ton probably caused the ugly duel re- port. The queen mother Is devoted to the happiness of the couple, and Wilhelmina is deservedly beloved by her subjects She studies their interests and the coun- try is prosperous.
 "The queen frequently inquires as to the secret of American success in business. She likes to refer to the old Knicker- booker ties uniting Holland and New York
 Tt Is well that Americans should know the truth about The Hague court I do not believe there is any deep political scheme behind the recent mischievous re- ports whose origin was in a telegram sent out by German correspondent.

 Max Comes In.
 The French bark Max, which was in the collision with the steamer Walla Walla arrived here at o'clock tonight in tow of the steamer Acme and the revenue cutter McCulloch.
 The Max was picked up by the steamer Acme at Il a. m., January 4, two days after the collision with the Walla Walla when seven miles southeast of Point Gorda Later the revenue cutter McCul- loch which was cruising in search of sur vivors of the wreck also fastened a line to the Max. In the collision the bow spirit and jib boom of the Max were car ried away. Several plates on the port and starboard bow were stove in. Two large holes were made through the stern plates. The officers of the Max claim that all their lights were burning. They saw the lights of the Walla Walla They assert that The Walla Walla tried to cross their bow and that the collision occurred through no fault of the Max.
 As a reason for not standing by and rendering assistance they say that 1t was impossible, owing to the badly dis abled condition of the Max. They had all they could do to take care of themselves. III luck has followed the Max since she was built two years ago in France On her maiden trip gale in the South Paci- fic stripped her of her steel masts and rigging. The vessel sought refuge in a near port and new masts and rigging were set in place. Then she started for home but again the i'll luck followed As she neared her destination she was caught in a great gale and stripped of mast rope and sail. This time the Max narrowly escaped final disaster.

Columbus, Ohio. January 5.-The re- publican caucus last night nominated the Foraker ticket for the Senate and the Hanna ticket for the house. Today the contest was continued on the same lines over the makeup of the standing com mittees and 1t Is evident that the chair manships and preferred places will go the same way as the offices. Price. who was defeated for speaker by McKinnon, will be shown consideration as chairman of the judiciary committee and the chair manship of one of the committees on municipal affairs in deference to George B. Cox, will go to some member from Cincinnati, but the courtesy will not be extended further.
 The Senate committees are being ap- portioned by special committee on the lines of the Republican caucus with the Democrats cooperating.
 As the liquor associations threw their influence to Price that interest is now attempting a fusion of the Democrats with such Republicans as are opposed to the local option bill

MUSICAL NOTES.
Two Singers at the Conservatory
 Make Fine Impression.


 The musical section of the Turn verein will meet tonight for rehearsal.
 At the recital at the Conservatory of Music Saturday afternoon there were many pleasing vocal and instrumental numbers but the solos that provoked the greatest applause were those by Mrs Putnam soprano, and Mir. B. L. Brown, high baritone.
 Mrs. Putnam sang Rubinstein's "Sinee Met Thee" and Ries From Out Thine Eyes" The latter was delivered in ex- ceptionally good style. Mrs. Putnam is one of Birmingham's most artistic anna teurs and her occasional solos in the masses at St Paul's church have been pgreatly enjoyed by music lovers who at tend there.
 MT. Brown has wonderfully rich rara" made a big hit. He is intensely dramatic, and Mir. Guckenberger predicts for him brilliant career in music.
 At St Pauls church next Sunday late mass will be at 10 o'clock instead of o:30, which is the usual hour Gounads St. Cecilia mass will be sung by the full choir. There will be orchestral accom- paniment. This beautiful music is fre- queltiy heard in the cathsdrals of large cities. but in not many of them is it sung with so much delicate shading in plan issimo passages and so much dramatic strength in the climaxes as it is under Mir. Guckenzerger's leadership at St. Paul's.

BUSINESS MEN PETITION RAIL- ROADS TO ASSIST IN SECURING INDUSTRIES BY GIVING FINISH ED PRODUCTS ADVANTAGES.

Sheffield, January 5.-The following resolutions have been sent to the of icials of the Southern Railway Com 2any and the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and action urged in accord Herewith by the Business Mems Associa- ton of Sheffield:
 Whereas, The railroads of the South have been potent factors in the move ment which has brought so many of the cotton mills of the North to the proximi- ty of the cotton fields of the South, and they can become equally as efficient in lo-. eating furnaces. foundries, rolling mills and machine works near the ore and coal mines and iron producing centers of this section, since the argument that applies to the one condition has equal force and bearing on the other; and,
 "Whereas Sheffield is an iron produc- ing center whose importance may be second to none other in the South. but to secure such advantages as it's location and resources entitle 1t to receive policy should prevail with the railroads that will enable the finished products of iron and steel to enter any and all markets into
 
 on terms of equality with the raw ma terial.
 Whereas. The successful operation of such industries as are now located in Sheffield will largely tend to the location of others and promote the more rapid and permanest development of this city in which the railroads here will become the principal or largest benefciaries; therefore. be it
 Resolved, by the Business Mems Asso- ciation of Sheffield. That the Southern Railway and the Louisville and Nash lville management be and they are here by requested to readjust the present freight rates prevailing here so that the products of our stove foundries, rolling mills and machine shops may have equal relative advantages for their products as are given to pig iron.
 Resolved, That copies of these resolu- tions be sent to the proper officials, and that the president and secretary of this association be, and they are hereby ap- pointed a special committee to urge the adoption of a policy on the part of said railroads in conformity with the spirit hereof"
