CAUTION.

This is not a gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase the only remedy universally known
and remedy that has had the largest
sale of any medicine in the world since
1868 for the cure and treatment of Con-
sumption and Throat and Lung troubles
without losing its great popularity all
these years, you will be thankful we call
ed your attention to Boschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
others that are cheap and good for light
colds perhaps, but for severe Coughs
Bronchitis, Croup-and especially for
Consumption, where there is difficult
expectoration and coughing during the
nights and mornings, there is nothing
like German Syrup. The 25 cents size

New Evidence Discovered.

Boston, Nov. 13.-Evidence has been
found by the police against the colored
boy Perry, charged with the murder OF
Miss Clara Morton, of Waverly, which
supports their suspicious that he was
also the slayer of Miss Agnes McPheer
who was assaulted in Somerville, the
night of October Sd. The police now
have in their possession the watch chain
which was torn from Miss McPhee's
neck the night her skull was crushed
with a furnace shaker, and a young
colored woman of Cambridge from whom
they got it, says it was given her by
Perry. The police have also a letter
written by Perry to this young woman
since his arrest, in which he asks her to
return the chain to his mother behind
whose home parts of the chain, worn by
Miss Morton, when she was struck
down, were found Monday. The young
colored woman turned the chain and
letter over to the officers when they
called on her after Perry's arrest.

Bermudan, % years old, was arrested
this morning on suspicion that he
is the colored accomplice of Perry, tho

The Presidents Bear hunting Trip.
Memphis. Tenn, Nov. 13-President
Roosevelt and party arrived here shortly
before 10 o'clock this morning, and left
few minutes later for Mississippi. The
President will be among the bears this
evening at 4:30, when he reaches Smeads.
A guide will escort the President into
the most likely Businesses of the cane
brake and the slaughter will begin, it
bruin appears. The President hopes
that the Mississippi bears will not be as
shy as the Virginia turkeys. If they
are, he will return to Washington empty
handed. Before he started on the trip
the President received a letter from a
business man in one of the cities that he
has visited, warning him that an attempt
would be made to assassinate him. The
President has never paid any attention
to these warnings. AT every stopping
place he got off his car and walked up
and down the station platform and at
two or three towns slipped away from
the secret service men and took his con-
stitutional alone. AT Columbus he ran
up to the end of the train to shake hands
with the engineer and fireman, and, to
do so, pushed his way through a crowd
of 100 persons. If some one had been
waiting in that crowd to do the Presi-
dent harm, no power on earth could
have prevented an attack,

dictate that U. S. Ambassador Meyer was

by the fact that the automobile belonged

President Palma's first State recep-
ton was held last night, in Havana,

volt.
The proceedings of the French Cham

THOSE WHO watch the signs of the

the marked movement among the mem
bers of the Israelitish race in Europe,
especially that in connection with the
Inauguration of the Zionist project. This
people are now raising fund Of g, 400,

sity, S12O, 900 of which has already been
subscribed in England, where the move
ment is backed by wealthy Israelites.
The leaders are contemplating the COM
pilatiOn Of complete history of the
Jewish people. The Israelitish race has
throughout the history of the world been
prominent, although as nation the
least assuming of all upon the earth.
1t has survived the Assyrian, Babylon
ian, Medo-P Persian, Greek and Roman
empires of classic days, as well as the
many changes of the maps of Europe and
Asia since the dawn of the Christian era.
The Zionist movement may be the be-

of the race, destined not only TO astonish

of Abraham, but millions of Christians

PRESIDENT GoMPERs in his address
before the American Federation of La
Dor in New Orleans yesterday in refer
ring TO the recent strike of the miners
in Pennsylvania said
"The investigation is under way, and
a great moral victory has been won for
the miners, for the cause of organized
labor and for humanity"
This will suggest to many people the
talk of Napoleon Bonaparte after his
military miscarriages in Egypt and Pal
estine and his final withdrawal from
those countries and his return to France.
In reply to his many critics on the dis
astrous consequences of his ambition to
establish an eastern empire, he said his
expedition had added much to science.
The "moral victory Mr.. Gompers
speaks of is about as ethereal as the
volume of "science" taken from Egypt
to France by Bonaparte.

ALLEGED SERIOUS CRIME. News
has just reached Luray of an alleged
criminal assault in Rappahannock
county, the parties to the affair being
James Woodward and James jenkins,
both living at Sperryville, and the wo-
man being Mrs. Nora Mclaughlin, wife
FIJI. c. Mclaughlin, an employe of the
s moot tannery of that town. Ore
version of the affair is that the men as
saulted the woman while she was driving
her COW home on the outskirts of the
town, and that she found on the fol-
lowing morning in an unconscious con-
dition. Another report says the men
accosted Mrs. Mclaughlin, but offered
her no personal violence, threatening tc
kill her if she made an outcry, and that
her serious condition is due to fright.
The men have been arrested and lodged
in Jail at Washington, the county seat
of Rappahannock. There is said to be
strong feeling against the men, and
should the woman's illness terminate
fatally jenkins and Woodward will
almost certainly meet swift and severe
punishment.

CONGRESSMAN GRosyENoR, OF OHIO,
known as the administration mouth
piece on the floor of the House, has just
reached Washington and says:
II cannot see any prospect for tariff
revision. In the first place, it is de-
batable question as to the demand for it.
Out my way when we talked about tariff
revision to the people we noticed one
thing-that they were responsive to the
suggestion that the republican party Is
willing to revise the tariff when it is wise
to do so. and they were enthusiastic over
the statement that when revision comes
it must be undertaken by the republican
party and that party alone. We certain
" cannot do anything with the tariff
this session"
Mr.. Grosvenor and some of the other
shining lights in his party may say it is
debatable question as to the demand
for tariff revision but the fact remains
that but for the promises made during the
recent campaign by the President and
other prominent republicans that the
tariff would be revised, thousands who
voted ,the republican ticket last week
would not have done so. But the re-
publicans won and their promises on
this subject will be for naught-or at
any rate the tariff will not be changed
till the protectionists ''get good and
ready"

Tur New York stock market has been

THE New York stock market has been
unsteady for some time and during the
mast ten DAYS, at intervals, a panicky
feeling has prevailed. The market stiff
ened somewhat yesterday when William
K. Vanderbilt, E. II. Hartman and
the Rockefeller interests, by pouring
about s19. 900. 900 into Wall street when
prices were crumbling and frightened
bulls were liquidating and flooding the
market with stock, steadied the market
and brought about rally, and in the
oninion of conservative men saved the
the street from disastrous panic. But
few of the shares, however, have reached
the values at which they stood before the
decline. The surplus in the treasury
has been greatly reduced recently and
Secretary Shaw has resorted to unusual
methods to supply the demand for
money but he has now called halt. 1t
has been strongly intimated that he may
be compelled at any time to begin to
withdraw from repositories of govern
ment money some of the funds to the
credit of the government, and should the
bankers be thus squeezed they, in turn,
would be compelled to squeeze their Dor
rowers. In this event the result could
be but disastrous and panic would al
most certainly ensue. The New York
bankers, by their selfshness, are in
large measure responsible for the present
financial condition, but it is hoped that
threatened danger may be ayerted.

Carrie Hill, who was shot three times
Saturday night by her husband, BENZ.
G.. Hill, at 315 Missouri Avenue, Wash
ington, died at the Casualty Hospital at
9:15 O clock last night. The body was
removed to the morgue, where an In
quest was held this morning. A post
mortem examination was made before
the inquest, to ascertain the cause OF
death. Of the three bullets which en-
tered Mrs Hills body, two did compare
lively little damage. One passed through
the feshy part of the right side of the
neck. coming out in front. The othel
passed nearly through the left breast,
and was removed by the surgeons. The
third entered the back just beneath the
left shoulder blade and is supposed to
have taken downward course. 1t could
not be found by probing. This was the
bullet which caused death. The sup
position is that it entered the left lower
pleural cavity and that death was due
either to septic poisoningor slow intern
al hemorrhage. Hill was locked up at

An ATTORNEY REBUKED.-A scene
almost Unprecedented in the history Of
the United States Court in Norfolk, oc-
Cured yesterday when Judge Waddill
administered a rebuke to Attorney r. T.
Thorp. The judge had just delivered
charge to the grand jury, telling the
jurors what constituted offenses against
the government, what evidence they
must consider, and that they would only
hear the evidence of the governments
witnesses. The room was crowded.
Thorp is the counsel for some of the
local butchers, who are charged with a
conspiracy to defraud the government in
the matter of bids on meat and vegeta-
bles for the Norfolk navy yard. He
wanted the court to instruct the jurors
that. if they had knowledge of their own
for or against any of the cases to be con-
sidered, they equally consider said
knowledge in indicting or exculpating
the parties accused. The object of the
motion was that the Judge should alter
his charge. Judge Waddill appeared to
be angry. He smiled, however, as he
told the attorney that the time and
place for his argument were highly IN
appropriate, and Mr. Thorp sat down.

After an illness of nearly three weeks,
during which she declined to accept
treatment from physician, Miss Louise

Washington to act as bridesmaid for her
scho0lmate, Miss Ethel Herbert Began,
died at $50 last night at the home OF

street northwest. Coroner hewitt, who
was notified of the death about 11:30
last night, gave instructions for an
autopsy at $50 this morning. Death
resulted, it is believed, from typhoid
fever. Mr.. Holmes Hoge, father Of the
deceased, who is assistant cashier of the
First National Bank of Chicago, and
Mrs. Hoge, the mother were with their
daughter when she died. They went to
Washington about two weeks ago in
