THE DUST OF WASHINGTON

The tombs OF England's honored dead
Are like her annals, grand;
Leaning Ger Chatham's buried head,
Dropping by Nelson's trophed bed.
AS II their hearts of marble bled,
Arts silent mourners stand. .
But how. my country, hast thou shrined
Thy patriot-heroes' dust?
Hath he, in whose majestic mind
All human virtues were combined
Hath he-the champion of mankind
Carved urn or laurel bust7
No-from his tomb tn unsculptured stones.
Widowed. and broken, fall;
No marble warders guard his bones
His grave nor state nor nation owns,
And he who startled Europe's thrones
Neglected lies Of all.
The monuments that Nature gave
Are melting fast away;
The branches that were wont to wave
Like banners. DER the good and brave.
Torn rudeiy from his hallowed grave.
Are speculaton's prey.
Conquered CORVALLIS rests in state.
So Howe and Clinton lie;
For Britain bars not glorys gate
Against cen her defeated great,
While we to him, VIII se sword was fate,
fitting tomb deny.
Sons of the solll-heirs of the fame
Earths purest patriot won.
Let not his memory be your shame.
The sordid ransom give and claim
The dust of Washington

A PRISONER ESCAPES

Yesterday afternoon a sneak thief
Peaslee in the Harper house and got
away with couple of gold watches,
one with solid gold and the other
with a gold filed case, together with
a fob, chain and other jewelry and
a - calibre revolver.
One of the chambermaids saw
man come out of the room and lock
the door behind him and supposed
that he was a friend of Mr.. Peaslee,
who was out for drive.
The police were given meagre de
scription of the stranger and they
are working on the case, so far, how
ever, with poor success.
Bowman Gets Away.
Because he is faster on his feet
than Officer Mccarthy. William Bow
man (colored) is free man today.
William, who was recently released
from Jail after serving Il term for
larceny. was yesterday rearrested on
the charge of stealing a halter from
the G.. O. ID. laundry.
Officer Mccarthy took him first TO
the laundry and then to Spencer &
Trefz's, where he had attempted to
dispose of the articles, for Identified
ton. Then he started with his pris-
oner for the station.
While going down Third avenue
William concluded he would see how
fast he could run. Accordingly, he
took advantage of an mguarded mo-
ment on the part of the officer and
broke away. His start was such Il
magnificent one that the officer saw
at once that he had no show. and he
stood ana watched his prisoner drop
away into the distance. Bowman is
still at large.
Probably Bad Dream.
Late last evening a half-dressed in
dividual rushed into the police sta
ton and declared that an attempt
had been made to chloroform him in
his room in the row on Third avenue
opposite the court house. After he
HAD cooled down bit he gave his
name as John Coleman. Officer Berg
ston went with him to investigate,
but failed 10 find anything upon
which 1.-THE man could reasonably
found his charges. There was no
odor of the deadly gas about the
room and the people whom Coleman
claimed were trying to kill him
slept in the same room, the beds be-
ing separated by only Il low parti-
ton which would have exposed all
to the same danger, had there been
any. Although Coleman was evident
~ the victim of a bad dream the il
fusion made such a strong impress
sion upon him that he refused to go
back to bed and instead went to Dav-
export to spend the remainder of
the night.

SOUR STOMACH tAcid Dy=pepsia).
Now Recogniz 5 the Cause Of Sc.
rious Diseases.

Acid Dyspepsia, commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach. is 4 form Of indi-
sesticn resulting from fermentation of
the food The stomach being too weak to
promptly digest it. the food remains until
fermentation begins. filing the stomach
with gas, and bitter, sour burning
taste in the mouth is often present. This
condition soon becomes chronic and be-
ing an every day occurrence is given but
little attention Because Dyspepsia is not
immediately fatal, many people do no.
thing for the trouble.
It is now we'll known among able ply
sicians that the whole constitution Is
gradually undermined and Weakened that
the nerves and vital organs are seriously
affected by any form OF dyspepsia. This
is plain, as every organ, every nerve in
the body is nourished by the blood and
the blood is replendished by from the
food dgested. II the food IS properly di-
gested the blood is pure, the nerves
steady. but ii supplied from q sour. fer
uenting, decayns mass, the blood is
viviated, poisoned. and the result is shown
in sleeplessness, lack Of energy. poor ap-
petite, nervousness. Every trie is nlagni-
fed and the dyspeptic sees nothing but
the dark side of everything.
Within recent period a remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles It is
known as stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. and
it is now becoming rapidly used, and
prescribed as a radical cure for every
form Of dyspepsia.
1t is not claimed to cure anything ex-
cent dyspepsia and stomach weakness in
it's various forms. but for this It has been
shown to be unequalled. The eminent spe-
cIalists Reed and O'Leary, have recent
w stated that they considered Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets an unfailing specific
for disorders Of the digestive organs. and
the remarka bic cures made in cases Of
long standing dyspepsia proves that this
remedy has extraordinary merit.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold by
druggists everywhere at 80 cents per
ma ckage and while it promptly and eff
Esectually restores vigorous digestion, at
the same time Is perfectly harmless. and
