1T is IMPORTANT
To Know What You Are Taking When
Usinq Catarrh Medicines.

Catarrh is the short route to consump-
ton, and the Importance of early and jul
dicious treatment of catarrh, whether To-
Gated in the head, throat or bronchial
tubes, cannot be too strongly empha-
sized.
The list of catarrh cures is as long as
the moral law, and the forms in which
they are administered numerous and con-
fusing from sprays, inhalers, washes,
ointments and salves to powders, liquids
and tablets.
The tablet form is undoubtedly the most
convenient and most effective, but with
nearly all advertised catarrh remedies 1t
Is almost entirely matter of guesswork
as to what you are taking into your sys-
TEN, as the proprietors, while making all
sorts Of claims as to what their medicines
will do always keep 1t close secret as
to what they are.
The success and popularity of the new
catarrh cure, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets,
is largely because it not only cures ca
tarrh, but because catarrh sufferers who
used these tablets know what they nre
taking into their systems. Stuarts Ca.

FIVE THOU
SAND DOLLARS
Is Amount Of Damages Mrs. Kin
kead Asks in Suit Against
J. R. Lambert
For Having Jug Of Whisky Sent to
Her Hotel.
HE IS A COUNTY OFFICIAL.

Mrs. Sallie j. Kinkead. of the
First National Hotel, of Sebree,
has filed suit in the Webster
county circuit court against John
r. Lambert, of Henderson, for
$4,000 damages. Mr.. Lambert,
who is camping at the Cascade
camp ground, thought that a jug
of whiskey would be a good
thing to have while camping, and
ordered 1t. He had it shipped
to the First National Hotel,
Room 3. He asked Policeman
Sutton to 60 to the express office
and get it for him, which he
readily consented to do. Sutton
made his demand, but the agent.
refused to let the whiskey go ex-
cept upon the order of Mrs. Kin
kead, which she refused to give.
Mrs. Kinkead went to the ex-
press office, paid the charges,
took the jug, and smashed it in
the presence of a large crowd.
Sebree is a local option town,
and Mrs. Kinkead, who is run
ming the only hotel in the place,
says it will injure her business to
have such reports 60 out, hence
the suit. Mr.. Lambert is circuit
court clerk of Henderson county.
F. M. Hutchinson, Jr., is attor-
ney for the plaintiff, and the
case will come up at the Deem
Der term.

MILTON n. SMITHS
NARROW ESCAPE.
Runs in Front Of Fouth.Avenue Car and
His Clothing Is Grazed by the
Platform.

Mr.. Milton H. Smith, presi-
dent of the Louisville q Nash
vile railroad, had a narrow es-
cape from the wheels of a street
car few days ago. Fortunate
ly, he managed to clear the track
by a fraction, and the car in
passing merely brushed his cloth
ing instead of striking him with
full force.
The incident occurred just as
Mr.. Smith had started for his Of
fee.
As he left his home, on Fourth
avenue, near Oak, one of the
large park cars was on the south
ern side of Oak street. Mr.. Smith
started across the street with the
intention of boarding it after it.
had come to stop. But just be-
fore he reached the track he
paused, and the motorman,
thinking that he had decided to
wait until the car passed, came
on.
When the car was almost OPP
posite him, Mr.. Smith suddenly
made up his mind to cross in
front of it. He stepped on the
track, and the mOtorman, seeing
him, made an effort to bring the
car to a sudden stop. He was
unable to do so, and it seemed as
though Mr.. Smith must be struck
down. When the fender was
within a foot of him Mr.. Smith
made a leap for safety. Just as
he succeeded in getting clear of
the track the side of the platform
scraped along his coat.
The car was stopped, and Mr..
Smith climbed to the running
board. Courier journal.

Sent to Jail for Contempt Of
Court in Violent Speech
making.
ARE DENOUNCED BY JUDGE JACKSON.
vampires That Live and Fatten on
the Honest Labor Of Coal
Miners"
william BIakeIey One Of the Asitators
Who Must Serve Sixty Days.

Parkersburg, w. Va, July "a.
Judge John Jay jackson in the
Federal Court here today sem
fenced to terms of Imprisonment
six leaders of the striking miners
who were cited for contempt of
court in violating the injunction
recently issued by him on appli-
cation of the Fairmont Coal
Company.
In delivering his opinion Judge
Jackson strongly censured the
accused unionists, characterizing
them as a professional set of
agitators, organizers and walking
delegates" whose Emission is to
foment trouble" and gave from
the bench a general defense of
the use of the writ of injunction
in strike cases.
''Mothsr" Jones Case.
Smother" Jones was held equal
ly guilty with her associates, but
in her case judgment was sus-
pended, Judge Jackson declaring
that Gas she was posing as a mar
tyr, he would not send her to Jail
or allow her to force her way
into jail"
81 will not sentence you now,"
he continued, addressing direct
ly the gray-haired champion of
the miners, "and you go free SO
long as you obey this courts
mandates in the injunction grant
ed, but, Mrs. Jones, it will go
exceedingly hard with you for
another violation, for which you
will speedily be clapped into
jail"
The other prisoners who were
held guilty were Thomas Hag-
gerty, of indianapolis, who was
sentenced to 80 days in the Par
kersburg Jail; William Blakely,
George Brown, Peter Wilson and
two strikers named Morgan and
Rice, who must serve terms of
sixty days each.
Foreigners Set Free.
-Four Austrians and twenty
others were released on the same
conditions allowed "'Mother"
Jones, namely, that they keep
quietin injunction territory here
after, on penalty of heavy sem
fences. The Austrian consul at
New York appeared for his four
countrymen, and his plea that
their ignorance of the injunc-
tion's features was due to their
lack of knowledge of the English
language was successful.
1t was currently reported that
the house of Judge jackson had
been guarded for several nights,
and that guards were in the
courtroom. 1t is said that this
was done without the knowledge
of the judge.
Injunction Is Defined.
At the morning session of the
court Judge Jackson delivered an
exhaustive review of the case, re-
serving the sentences until after
noon. He said:
"What is an injunction? Is it
the exercise of an arbitrary pow
er by the courts of the country,
or is it power that has been
recognized from very early date
as one of the branches of admin
istrative justice? answer this
question by affirming that the or
binary use of the writ of injunc-
tion is to prevent wrongs and in

erty, or to reinstate the right of

II DOWN IN THE MINES. r.

the records made by the 8 and II
mines the past week or two, as
regard production of coal, have
not been equaled for years past.
And yet he complains of the
scarcity of coal cars which evil
IDENTIFY indicates that coal orders
are unanimous. Coke orders he
says are good, and it is possible
more ovens may be built. An
order for one hundred cars of
egg coke by one firm in st. Louis
is now in the hands of the st.
Bernard. This we understand
is used for stove fuel.
Operator w. +. Wooten, of
the Shamrock Coal Co., claims
that the limestone roofing found
over the No. II vein of coal,
where his company is sinking a
shaft, near Providence, has been
reached, and that only a few
days will be required to place
them in a position to mine coal.
He hopes to have the railroad
track in by the middle of August
if not sooner, and soon after to
commence the shipment of coal.
The Webster county parties
who recently struck a small flow
of gas, while sinking a we'll at
Sebree, are going deeper in
search of a stronger flow. A
few years ago while the railroad
company was sinking a we'll a
flow of gas was struck which
burned for several days, but
since that time until the present
nothing further has been done.
Reports say about half of the
mines at Evansville are now idle
and in a bad shape to contribute
to the defense fund Mitchell
wants. The probability Is that
very little money will leave there
for the east.
Several section hands quit
work last week and have enter
ed the employ of the st. Bernard
Co. The extreme hot weather
of late makes those who ever
had taste of miners life, long
to again work under the ground
where the scorching rays of the
sun cannot reach them.
The Oak Hill Coal Co. had
some nice business cards printed
last week, which Will be placed
in the hands of its travelling
agent, G. NJ. johnson, for distri-
button.
The case against Chappell, the
negro organizer of the U. M. W.,
as accessory before the fact to
murder in the Providence case
will be called at Dixon this week.
The evidence is thought to be
strong against him.
Word received from Superin-
tendent Crutchfeld shows that
he has been and is yet a very
sick man, caused by disease of
the heart. Barton has led a very
active life, and it is very trying
on him to be confined to house
and bed as he has been for sew
eral weeks past.
Thirteen dollars per week will
be Henderson's share to be con-
tributed for the support of the
idle eastern miners, there be-
ing that number of union miners
in the mine at that place.
The placing of a premium up
on idleness by supporting miners
in the east who won't work for
fair wages is in our opinion one
of the hardest blows ever struck
honest labor IL this country, be-
cause it encourages men to live
by the sweat of Others brows and
will eventually increase the army
of tramps.
Secretary Geo. Q. Atkinson is
at home after a soiourn of sever
al weeks in the east, much i'm
proved in health. But we notice

the slave and Hungarian
dialects.
Just as we limited last week,
more of the leading white agi-
tatOrs have rushed over to Dixon
with their pockets full of money
to help their colored U. NJ. w.
brother, Chappell, out of Jail.
Their love for him ceases when
his power to do their bidding
fails. Gratitude is rare ele-
ment and there are those who
are members of that organlza-
ton who once were fed where
hungry, given medical attention
when sick, but who joined the
gang leaving their bill unpaid.
AL Ruthland, of the Empire
Coal Co., is indignant over the
attempt of office seekers who
favor the U. M. w. to gain his
support and that Of others whose
interest they violently assailed.
The U. NJ. w. we understand
at one time were much elated
over what they considered bright
prospects to control the Norton
vile mine when it should be
opened. 1t is said that they are
not wanted, and that similar
contract to that used by the st.
Bernard will be required of en-
ployes.
Foreman Toombs and crew of
co-workers have completed the
new air fan at the Victoria mine.
The fan was started last Satur-
day and a beautiful supply of
air for that mine is now assur-
ed.
Richard Croft came down sew
eral days last week to visit his
father Moscow Croft, who is con-
sidered very sick man.
Among those who monthly
squander large sums of money
in the jacksonville saloons are
miners who own no home and
who seem to prefer a supply of
intoxicants to a home. We are
well satisfied that the amount
spent monthly for liquor by the
miners of this place would buy
some one a nice home.
Because a United States Judge
dared to do his duty the U. NJ.
w. have become incensed and
want him Immediately impeach-
ed. 1t has always been the case
with these fellows, that when
the law is inforced as justice
sees it, they howl like a kicked
dog.
Steady work is what our miners
generally desire and that is what
they are getting. One while
speaking ON this subject lately
said he only lost one day this
month and that was on account
of an accident. Such being the
case how can the miners be
otherwise than contented and
happy"
Certain white and black U. NJ.
WIS. who are prominent in sub-dis-
trict No. and some of their Of
ficials who loaf about Madisonville
are making threats against certain
citizens of this county. Their names
are well known as are the threats
they have made, and they will be
wise to remember the fate of the
murders of Sheriff Coffee and Nor
ton Bush.
Organizer Chas. Wilson says his
money is getting thin, as the funds
are now being sent to Penn. to pay
salaries and expense accounts.
Wilson will probably follow the
funds, but will keep out of Judge
Jacksons court.
Control City miners are kicking
against the ten per cent assessment
and claim that non-union men in
Hopkins county are making much
better wages than themselves.
During the six months ending
Jnne both the ST. Bernard miners
dug 503292 tons of coal and received
over 100000 in wages. None of this
moneysgoes to buy houses and farms
