NELLY, SCAPEGOAT
 SAYS SENIOR ZAYA
IN CONCLUDING HIS ARGUMENT .s CUBAN LAWYER SAYS OTHER
 MEN DID WRONG AND PLACED iorBkAME6 ON NELLY.

Havana, February 27.-Senor Zaya, at the hearing of the Cuban postal fraud cases today, concluded his argument in behalf of c. F. w. Nicely. He said he be- lieved the testimony of w. H. Reeves should have no weight with the court because Reeves stood as a confessed forger and in his attempts to duplicate others had contradicted himself. Before the lower court Reeves declared that he had forged five checks and that Nicely had forged five But under cross -exami- nation Reeves would not say whether he or Neely had committed the forgeries.
 Senor Zaya related that Reeves said Nicely gave him $46OO to fix up the books. The fact Is, Reeves did not have posses sion of the books at the time, they being in the hands of his associates, Reynolds and Burton. Reeves must account for the money being in his possession, so he blamed Nicely, continued Senor Zayas. c. L. Rich did the same thing Rich had 5000 stamps and said that Neely gave them to him. Everybody tried to cover himself by blaming Neely who was ab- sent The fact that there were no vouch- CTS with the miscellaneous accounts did not show fraud. Possibly Nicely got no benefit from this account The sale of surcharged stamps was in no way irregu- lar, and Nicely did not try to conceal having stolen them.

IRISH AGITATOR
 HAS BLOOD POISON
RossA, THE NOTED FENlAN, CUTS CORN TOO DEEP AND IS NOT EXPECTED TO LIVE. cANoRENE SETS IN.

Colorado Springs, Col, February N.- ODonovan Rossa, the noted Irish agita- tor and Fenian is critically i'll of blood poisoning at St. Francis hospital in thisl city and his death may occur at any. moment. While trimming a corn on his. right foot he cut deeper than he intend ed. The wound was slight but neglected soon developed blood poisoning. For two or three days he has been delirious from fever. Gangrene finally set in. His condi- ton was so grave last night that City Physician Richardson was called and he was removed to the Hospital.
 Amputation of the leg was advised but Rossa refused to consent This morn ing several important bones were removed from the foot. He is in a comatose condi- tion with high temperature and feeble cir culation. His brother John Rossa Sioux City, Ia., attorney, has been notified.
 Rossa came here recently from San Francisco as an agent of the Copper Gen. ter Mining Company of Sonora, MexicD. He has prospered apparently and is now a charity patient.

GERMANY IS TACKLED
 OVER PRINCES VISIT
Paper Says Festivals In This Country Constitute Most Beautiful Pages
 In International Relations.

Berlin, February 27.-One of the most beautiful pages in our international rela- tions is the record of these festivities" says the Cologne Gazette, referring to Prince Henrys visit to the United States
 President Roosevelt, the members of both Houses of Congress, the Mayor of New York and representatives of the gov ernment, army and navy of the United States have shown the brother of our Emperor not only official honors, but have everywhere manifested such open hearted cordiality that the impression in Germany is most agreeable and perma- nent. Prince Henry's journey west and south will undoubtedly take the same pleasant course.
 What deserves most to be emphasized, however, is the unanimous participation of the American people in the festivities which they have given in excellent taste. The inhabitants of the imperial cities of New York and Washington have shown in | their demonstrations that they feel them selves to be taking part with the Pres ident and his national staff in the hos- pitality which in every respect is worthy a great people.
 We hope that the wish of President Roosevelt to be a guest some time on German battleship will be fulfilled in the most pleasant way. If this visit could be made in German waters the German peo- pie could take part in honoring that sym pathetic personality representing the great American nation. The Presidents official duties prevent this, but even though years pass before President Roosevelt, as a private citizen, can visit our country, the remembrance of the splendid February days will continue to live with us, and the German people will prepare hearty welcome.
 May his countrymen, the American cit- izens living among us, carry home the impression that the German people are equally hospitable and appreciative in in- ternational courtesies and honors."

PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND THE GREATEST
 NERVE TONIC.

Paines Celery Compound is the great est nerve tonic ever given to the world. It s@partieulaFly effective when the sys- tenn Is gradually wasting away in old age and when each separate organ is pre- disposed to degeneration.
 Paines Celery Compound renders vig- orous old age possible. It keeps the nerv-' ous system in a normal condition of health; 1t keeps the digestive organs in perfect condition; 1t keeps the liver and kidneys active and in perfect health; 1t nourishes nerve fibers as well as muscle fibers and other tissues; it keeps the nerve force strong; it aids digestion; it makes rich, pure blood and gives strength and health to those in whom the energies of the human body have begun to wane.
 In the treatment of the infirmities common to old age Paine7s Celery Com pound is the worlds greatest remedy. seq William P Snowden and his family were the first white settlers of the town that is now the city of Omaha. He has had lorg and eventful life. His trade is that of a brickmaker He fought with the aTfly or the NOrIn rom lool to lob4. lie had previously seen service in the Mexi- car war in the forties. He has held many local offices of trust, and there is no bet ter known man in Nebraska today.
 Tt gives me great pleasure he wrote the good qualities of Paine's Celery Com pound. I have used it for years and it in letter on October Il last, "to attest has never failed to help me While I am perhaps the oldest resident in this city, I am in good health. I have never found 1t necessary to takd any other medicine Nothing has ever approached Paine.s Celery Compound in its power of building up weakened nerve tissues and giving strength to the tired body. In severe cases of persistent headaches, dyspepsia, neu- ralgta and sleepiessness, due to nervous feebleness, Paine's Celery Compound has a record of rapid and lasting cures that embraces every city and town in the wide sweep of the. United States.

While in Demopolis this week was told a good story about a recent case in which Mr. Gesner Williams was employed as an attorney. Gesner Williams is widely known In the state. He was at various times Mayor of his home town, member of the constitutional convention and hold CT of sundry other offices.
 Recently there was a row between mem bers of one of the negro churches in the town of Demopolis. From aftrihing affair the trouble grew to a reud. The active parties are the pastor of the church and fairs of the congregation
 Finally the elders held a caucus at which they decided to summarily fire the preacher at a meeting to be held the next night. In some way the preacher learned of their plans.
 Immediately he began to prepare for counter action by dismissing the deacons. Learning of this the deacons sought At torney Williams and employed him to represent them at the meeting. After the usual services the question of business came up Every seat in the building was occupied, the greater majority of the con- gregation having been brought In by the preacher, and therefore his partisans.
 Charges were preferred against the deacons before they could prefer charges against him. Without much ado over trial and without allowing the deacons to answer the charges the preacher called for a vote Of course. his side won by vast majority; or at least seemingly so, for he did not take any nay vote.
 A"Deacon Jones, Deacon Smith and the rest of you deacons are all fired from our church. Kindly get right out of the building without delay" said the preach CT.
 Before anything else could be done Mir. Williams, who all the time had remained in the rear of the building, jumped up, and made dash for the front. He leap ed upon a table and began fierce de- nunciation of the preacher. Immediately a perfect pandemonium began. Women yelled to the attorney:
 "Get off our table. Take your big shoes

 Toronto-cheerfuI Speeches.

Toronto, February 27. - Every seat in Massey's Hall was occupied at the first of today's meetings of the student volun- tcer convention. In the executive report presented by Pev. John E. Mott he said the reason of the success and power of the student volunteers was because of the youth, activity, vigor, education and discipline of the members of the move ment. In a summary MT. Mott showed that the volunteer movement was active in Great Britain, Germany, Scandinavia, France and Holland, represented in 1500 societies with 7000O members. In America there are 325 classes with 2S000 students. Some time ago it was difficult to get money to send the many missionaries to the foreign fields. but today things have changed and the ''coin clinlks in the cor- fers of the American boards"

His subject was Qualification Necessary for a Mission ary." Bishop J. M. Thoburn, bishop of India, was the next speaker.
 Rev. R. F. Fox, honorary secretary of the Church and Missionary Society of England and Thomas Hayes, travelling secretary of the movement in England, made interesting addresses.
