T>liE day was when men of promi-
nence hesitated to give their testi-
monials to proprietary medicines for
publication. This remains true to-day
of most proprietary medicines. But Pc
rupa has become SO justly famous, its
merits are known to so many people of
high and low stations, that no one hesi-
tates to see his name in print recom-
mending Peruna. .f
The highest men in our nation have
given Peruna n strong endorsement.
Men representing all classes and sta
tions are equally represented.
A dignified representative of the Pres
bytcrian church in the person of Rev.
L. G. Smith does not hesitate to state
publicly that he has used Peruna in his
family and found it cured when other
remedies failed. In this statement the
Rev Smith is supported by an elder in
his church.
Rev. L. G. Smith. pastor of the Prcsby-
terian church of Greensboro. Ga, writes:
''IIaving used Peruna in my family for
some time it gives me pleasure to testify
to it's true worth. r..
"My little boy seven years of age had
been suffering for some time with ca
tarrh of the lower bowels. Other rem
edies had failed, but after taking two
bottles of Peruna the trouble almost en-
tirely disappeared. For this special
malady consider it well nigh specific.

GOVERNOR JELKS
 IN PULLMAN COUNTY
SPEAKS TO 25o VOTERS AT WAL TER. AND, BEING IN A HAPPY MOOD, KEPT HIS HEARERS EN- TERTAlNED FOR OVER AN HOUR

Cullman. October 81.-0special)-Gov- ernor Jellzs in company win Chairman R. L. Hipp. and George H. Parker, and a dozen other leading democrats went to Waiter, twelve miles out from Gull man where the governor spoke today at noon. The large house was abandoned and the meeting was held in the grove where fully two hundred and fifty voters with about as many women listened to the governor for an hour and half.
 The speaker appeared in happy mood. He criticised the republican national poll ticians upon the tariff question and re- ferred to the Philippine management with disapproval. He passed to the states history beginning with 1868 and showed by briefly referring to statistics that the indebtedness of the state at the end of republican rule in 1874 was more than the state revenue. The governor passing ly referred to his opponent and the lily white party.
 Party leaders pronounce the meeting the most successful of the campaign. The governor is being rendered a public reception at the Commercial hotel to- night and will address the voters in the court house here tomorrow.

 The meeting was much more largely attended than was expected in view of the apathy supposed to exist oN the rate, and it is taken as an index of the large vote that will be gotten out next Tuesday.

Colombian Minister Placed In Peculiar
 Attitude Toward Country.

Washington, October S1.-A report was current in Washington tonight that MT. Concha, the Colombian minister. had ca bled his resignation to his government in consequence of alleged friction between the minister and the state department, growing out of the projected. Panama canal treaty negotiations.
 "The report is absolutely without foun- dation," said MT. Herrera, ''the secre- tary of the legation. He added that it was Mr. Concha's intention, when he first came to Washington, to say only for a limited time. as he had business in Bogo- ta and other plans in view which de- manded his attention. The canal nego- tiations, however, had extended over a greater period than was expected when the minister was appointed.

M'K|NLEY MADE
 PROMISE ID CUBA
QueSada Says He Objected to
 Naval Station at Havana
ROOSEVELT KNEW OF II
Cuban Minister Says the Best of Feel. ing Exists Between cubans and Americans, as Is Evidenced By
 Number of Investors.

Washington, October 31-When asked regarding the proposed coaling stations in Cuba, Gonzales DeQuesada, Cuban min- ister to the United States, said that four days before President Mckinley was shot, he had. at the instance of Estrada Palma, gone to Canton and secured from the President a solemn promise that while he was chief executive that he would not give his consent to the es- tablshment of a naval station at Havana and that President Roosevelt knew of the promise Continuing, MT. Quesada said President Palma never would have gone to Havana, the Cuban capital, where a diplomatic corps was established. while a foreign flag was flying over the city. The minister also said he could not see the necessity for coaling station at Cienfuegos, which had been recommend ed by Admiral Bradford, chief of the bu- reau of equipment. in view of it's proxi-. mity to Guantanamo, which was also recommended as a eoaling station.
 MT. Quesada in commenting on the ne- gotiations now being conducted for a commercial treaty between Cuba and this country, said
 'The reciprocity plan Is purely conven- tion and has nothing to do with any oth- CT political questions which may arise between the two governments. and has absolutely nothing to do with the Platt amendment by Secretary Hay and will return 1t in due time with observations and notifications deemed best for the interests of Cuba and which, at the same time, will not hurt the interests of the United States. It has been shown by past experience, during the reciprocity ar engagement under MT. Blaine, that the commerce between, both countries ma terially increased, and 1t is expected that under any reciprocal arrangement be- tween the two countries, that the figures will be still higher than they were ten years ago, when they reached upward of f$1OO. COG, O00."
 MT. Quesada said the best feeling ex- isted between the Cubans and Ameri- cans, the proof of 1t being that every steamer arriving at Havana and other Cuban ports brought a great many Amer jean investors who were not only putting money in the island, but were establish ing themselves there. He spoke of the popularity of Minister Squiers and the gratitude of the Cubans to the United States for services rendered.

CROP REPORTS ENCOURAGING.
On Some of the UpIands the Yield
 Will Be Better.

Montgomery, October a.-(Special.)- Reports coming in from the country about the top cotton crop are rather encouraging. On some of the uplands this crop will amount to more than the whole crop was expected to yield at the close of the drouth.
 The average frost date here is the middle of November, and if 1t holds off until then, great deal of cotton will mature. In some sections and on some kinds of land the stalk is dead, but the rule is the other way There have been several light frosts but they did no damage.
