OLIVER'S BAD MEMORY
FAILED TO RECALL CARD GAME
 WITH ALLEGED CHANDELIERS
Cases Against Toole, Goode and Will son Dismissed--Recorder Airing ton Held the Complainant
 for Payment of $50.

William Toole and Jim Goode. charged with gaming. and Frank Wilson. charged with running a gaming house, were dls- charged by Recorder Arlington in Po- lice Court yesterday afternoon.
 The men were arraigned on a warrant sworn out by Albert Oliver, who claimed that he had lost $20 in a game of poker with them. When put on the witness stand Oliver swore that he did not roc member swearing out the warrants. He said he was under the influence of whis- key and morphine and did not know what he was doing. He claimed that the last he remembered was when he was playing pool with Goode: that if he played poker he did not remember any thing about it, In fact his memory was so deficient that he appeared to have been lost to the world for the time. He recoenizedNhis signature on the warrants, but did not remember when, where or how he signed them. Another great mys- tery with the witness was why he should have been attacked by Wilson the day after the arress
 the police station and swore out war rants for William. Toole, Jim Goode and Frank Wilson, or a charge Of gaming. He said they had enviegled him into a game of poker and won 70 Of his money. The warrants were issued and Oliver was summoned as q witness. When the case was called Tuesday Oliver was not in court to testify. so the cases were continued and an attachment was issued for Oliver. 1t was thought he had left the city on Tuesday. but Wednesday af- ternoon he was captured in a bar room on the corner of Bell and Moulton Streets and locked up in the barracks on a judgment of $lO in each case.
 After the trial of the cases yesterday when Oliver's memory proved so defect i've, the Recorder dismissed the cases against the men charged with gaming. but entered Judgment for $3o against Oli- .-x.Ht h rf.<t or work the streets of Montgomery for thirty days.

Washington on the Philippines.

Cnattanooga Times.
 Ex-Congressman Joseph F. Washing ton made a notable speech the other night at the Knights Templar banquet to Admiral Schley at Nashville. his subject being Our Country" MT. Washington Is one of the brainiest men in Tennessee, an old-time Jeffersonian, Tilden-Cleve- land Democrat, who was retired by the wave of Populism that swept the coun- try during the first w. J. Bryan regime fin the Democratic Party, and he has nev- CT regretted his retiracy, since to have remained in public life would have re- quired the sacrifice of what be believed to be genuine Democracy. In his speech at the banquet he closed a forcible pre- sentation of the glorious history of the l nited States with the following eloquent peroration, which is both refreshing and invigorating because of the recent flap doodle utterances of some of our Ten nessee statesmen who haven't yet real tZed that their country cannot and will not, shirk any responsibility, or, as Chief Justice Snodgrass says, tuck tail to run away from the duty forced upon It by the prowess of it's arms Mir. Wash ington said with reference to the Phil ippine Islands:
 "Without violation, to our Constitu- tion, we will find a way to give to those committed to our keeping the largest measure of local self government which they have the intelligence. the virtue and the ability to maintain. in keeping with their public safety and their private WcHdTc. Anu VIII be d thousand tim as better and freer than any which they have ever known, wheth- CT under native or foreign rule. The sooner they realize this the better.
 With pacification they will enter upon an era of prosperity, development and growth such as has marked all other lands that have hitherto come into our possession.
 'Old Glory the emblem of freedom. of peace and of good will to all men, now flies, as measured by the degree of longi- tude, over lands that extend just half way round the globe
 "WhereVer the beautiful Stars and Stripes kiss the heaben sent breeze, there We know is found asylum for the op- pressed; protection for the weak; en- couragement for the strong: a defense for the inalienable rights of man. based on the broadest principles of a Christian faith.
 wherever she waves, whether on land or sea- in the Arctic or In the tropic zone. on the Atlantic or on the Pacific. in the Occident or the Orient, in Hawaii or Porto Rico. in the Philippines or in the Danish West Indies. or perchance over a canal on the Isthmus fo Panama, she represents always our country, one flag, one heart, one hand. one nation evermore.
 That's the kind of Democracy the peo- rle of Tennessee want; the kind that sustains and stands by its government; that believes in practicing the principles of loyalty to the flag and encourages and fosters a love of country and profound belief in the benefcence of its rule. MT. WasAington's address ehcited a storm of applause.

These remedies are combined in lozenge form. pleasant to take and will preserve their good qualities indefinitely, whereas all liquid medicines Rapidly lose what over good qualities they may have had as soon as uncorked and exposed to the air.
 This preparation is called stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets and 1t Is claimed that one of these tablets or lozenges will digest from 300 to 5000 times its own weight of meat, eggs and other wholesome food. And this claim has been proven by actual experiments in the following manner: A hard boiled egg cut into small pieces was placed in a bottle containing warm water heated to ninetweight degrees Cor blood heaD, ore of these Tablets was then placed in the bottle and the proper tenn perature maintained for three hours and a half, at the end of which time the egg was as completely digested as 1t would have been in a healthy stomach. This experiment was undertaken to demon strate that what 1t would do in the bottle it would also do in the stomach, hence It's unquestionable value in tho cure of dys- pepsia and weak digestion. Very few people are free from some form of indi- gestion but scarcely two will have the same symptoms. Some will suffer most from distress after eating, bloating from gas in the stomach and bowels. others have acid dyspepsia or heartburn. others palpltation or headaches, sleeplessness, pains in chest and under shoulder blades. extreme nervousness as in nervous dYs- pepsia, but they all have same cause, failure to properly digest what Is eaten The stomach must have rest and assist ance and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give it both, by digesting the food for 1t and in a short time it is restored to it's normal action and vigor. At same time the Tab lets are 90 harmless that a child can take them with benefit. This new prepa- ration has already made many astonish- ing cures, as for instance. the following: After using only one package of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets I have received such great and unexpected benefit that I wish to express my sincere gratitude. In fact it has been six months since I took the package and I have not had one particle of distress or difficulty since. And all this in the face of the fact that the best doctors l consulted told me my case was Chronic Dyspepsia and absolutely incur able as I had suffered twenty-five years. I distributed half a dozen packages among my friends here who are very anxious to try this remedy.

A Republican View of Crumpacker's
 Bill.

Huntsville Tribune.
 We note with distinct, well considered displeasure that the Republican Con gressmen are considering a bill reeulat- ing suffrage in the South. Of course the bill is sectional and consequently dis picable. We desire saying to the Repifb- licans of the North that their attempted interference with the South is partisan and officious. There should be no NC... no South. We are not under two fn,s, and the only active and efficient way to eternally engender sectional hatred is for the fanatic element of the North to keep up narrow and arrogant political missionary work against our section. We assert without fear of contradiction the best Republican clements in the South are satisfied with State government that we believe that the people of each individual State best understand their condition and surrounding and that the highest and best impulse and motive, the clearest perception as to wisdom will govern each separate and independent State in its self control. If, the national government seeks to interfere with State matters, we presume the power Of the material government will be indi- cated by a standing army in Southern States, a distinct evidence of arbitrary rule and a well defined menace at the liberty of a free born and liberty guar anteed people. We do not believe that the intelligent nor the patriotism of the Northern people would for one moment tolerate such a movement. MT. Crumpack- CT is a cheap John tin horn blowing

A FIsH's DREAD OF MEN.
Willing, However, to be Stared at
 By Animals.

The Sphere, London.
 Instinctively fish recognize in man their most alarming enemy, and are fearless of animals who do not harm them. I could multiply instances in proof of this, but l select one of recent experiment. l was studying the ways of we'll known monarch of the pool through a peep hole in A thached hurdle. <<fixed there for the purpose. Behind me came neighhor with a spaniel dog. I got my friend to secrete himself with me and make his dog search the bank close to the trout; we could see the fish watching the dog by the well known hdgety movement, alternating with the usual steadfast, stay still antics which they adopt in the presence of danger.
 We made the dog lie down on the slop- Ing bank just beyond the hurdle, not three yards from Salmo's keen eyes, which, by the by. never move for focuss- Ing purposes like the eyes of animals. In moment or two the trout showed his confidence by going on rising and swerving from side to side as food came down, to examine 1t if not to swallow. The dog kept skipping at flies, but the trout took no notice.
 Then got my companion to draw his shoulders very slowly and quietly near the ground just past the hurdle, and lay his face full to the fish. He carried out the manoeuvre perfectly. Nature bad favored him with a Wsage far above the average, but If 1t didn't scare that trout, even my own has never scared one yet No, he did not dart away, not yet; but he shivered, changed his posi- ton. shivered again. stayed stone still, dropped down slightly. then rose again, and altogether behaved as trout do when alarmed. but not as much glanced at any food. He seemed to be saying to himself:
 What is that? Is it a mans head: seen him perpendicular; seen him peep Ing over, but never seen him horizontal before."
 Then so still was his boise for at least two minutes, while trying to solve the problem, that you couldn't detect the movement of a fin, sure sign that ercised. Like a flash he was gone; he could stand the hideous thing no longer. The evil apparition of a mans face, be 1t motionless or be 1t upside down. trout cannot abide.

 Young Kubelik. the violinist." said a musician yesterday, ''is extraordinarily sensitive to perfumes. the experiments of great scientific value. in the determina- ton of certain odors essential effects are often made on him. Perfumes intoXlcate him like alcohol and create in him the

IIe- liotrope makes him romaptic; he desires under it's influence to read and to com pose verses. to wear antique Jewels and vestments and to study love in It's com- plex forms. The odor of the tuberose makes him sad. so that he reads tragic things. pla-s tragic music, dons pblack and weeps readily. Lemon excites in him an appetite for alcoholic liquors.

 demagogue one who seeks to blind in- telligence with the darkness of prejudice, seeks to play upon the passions of a people, to kindle the fires of sectional hatred. Such men are curse, a political deformity in any land. Surely he must take the Republicans of the South as q class of maudiing idiots, men unadvised as to the great princiDles engrafted In one Constitution by a wise and liberty loving ancestry. principles which forbid the cranks of one section meddling with the affairs of a so to speak, foreign. independent and separate free democracy. In this he is mistaken We can trust our own people with a far more abiding con- fidence that justice will be done, than to hang on to the fanaticisms of 6 furi- ous prejudice engendering crank who would harm our neighbor. We can take care of ourselves, we desire no national interference, we believe that any step taken by the Republican Party Is step .unfriendly to the broad and liberal prin- ciples of our government and an Iop- pression aimed at patriotic people In our Southland.

TO DISMISS APPEAL
ANOTHER CHAPTER IN CASE OF
 FRANK DUNCAN.
Escaped From Jefferson County Jail and is Now Fugitive-If He Does Not Surrender Action
 Will be Taken.

Attorney General Charles G. Brown yesterday submitted to the Supreme Court a motion for the dismissal of the appeal in the case of Frank Duncan on the ground that he Is fugitive from justice. Duncan recently escaped from the Jefferson County jail and Is still at large He was condemned to be hanged for the murder of Birmingham police man.
 Contrary to published statements an appeal in Duncan's case was not pend- ing before the Supreme Court at the time he made his escape from prison. The appeal was not submitted to the court until yesterday <when the Attorney General made a motion for its dismissal. Duncan is represented by Colonel J. J. Altman of Birmingham.
 It is customary for the court in cases of fugitives to set date limit for the defendant to give himself up to the au- thorities after which the appeal Is dis missed. It is probable this will be the procedure in the Duncan case.
