Mr.. ALFRED BROWN,
A Prominent and Popular Citizen, Says:
"After The Use of Paine's Celery Compound,
Am Now In the Best of Health"

The greatest of modern physicians, Prof.
Edward E. Phelps, M. D., Ii. D., after years
of long practice and close scientific study, gave
to suffering and diseased men and women his
marvellous, life giving prescription, with the
conviction and positive knowledge that it had
peculiar virtues and ample powers to cure.
Thousands of the strongest testimonials from
the best known and most reliable men and
women of our country fully sustain the claims
made by DR.. Phelps regarding his incompar-
able Paine's Celery Compound.
One of the most convincing proofs furnished,
comes recently from a gentleman widely
known In the capital city of the Dominion of
Canada. We refer to Mr.. Alfred Brown, OF
OConnor ST., Ottawa, Ont. Mr.. Browns
letter fully demonstrates the fact that the
greatest sufferer may cast off his or her burden
OF disease and become well, strong, and happy.
1t proves, too, that the great medicine MAN.
tains more fully than ever before its unrivaled
place in the estimation of people of wealth
and social standing as well as with the masses.
Mr.. Brown says:-
al acknowledge with thankfulness and
pleasure the fact that have been cured of
very painful illness of eight years standing by
use of Paine's Celery Compound. 1 had,
during the years of my illness, tried almost all
the advertised medicines without deriving any
good results. / was also treated by several of
the best doctors of this city, hoping to find
that one of them, at least, would understand
my case.
I" 1 was getting worse, and was told I was
lncurable. was indeed in a critical condi-
ton. l could not go from the house alone,
as l was liable to sudden collapse. l tried
hospital treatment. but no relief or good results
came to me. l could not sleep; anything that
1 ate increased my agonies; 1 was extremely
weak, restless, tired, and respondent; was
obliged to walk about with my hands pressed
firmly into my left side to ease my pains; my
feet and hands were cold continually; had
inclination to vomit, had profuse, cold sweats,
quick breathing, and would be racked with
pain for hours at a time.
"After the regular use of Paine's Celery
compound for time, am now in the best of
health, have good appetite, and can use any
kind of food. Thank God am my old self
once more, all through the use of Paine's
Celery Compound"

MINERS AND TRUST.

Despite the satisfaction of the gen
eral public with the report of President
Roosevelts commission which looked
into the coal strike and proposed rene
dies for existing evils, there seems dan
ger that trouble may come before this
summer is over.
There are two sides to the story of
course, but the operators have never
shown any inclination to deal fairly
with the miners on the basis recon-
mended by the commission. The
Miners Union is not by any means the
most rational body of workmen in the
States. A story is told where recently
a months strike resulted from the dis
charge of a driver who tied his mule
head and tail between two posts and
beat it with a club until tired. But
the operators are going to great
lengths, seemingly without reason, to
prevent the carrying out of the plan
for arbitration by refusing to fill up
the board.
The miners are justly incensed at this
refusal Of the operators to complete the
organization of the Cancellation board.
and there is talk of a general strike in
case the owners do not at once recog-
nize the three members appointed by
the Union. There are several impor-
tant issues to be decided growing out
OF the award. and 1t is urgent that they
be adjusted at once. In view of their
own fragrant violation of the terms of
the award in locking out the Reading
men few weeks ago and their present
refusal to organize the board as the
commission directed, any further dis
turbance OF the peace between them
and their employees must be blamed up
on the corporations. The public temper
was sufficiently displayed last autumn
to warn the coal trust now that it can
not depend upon popular sentiment to
sustain 1t in any further conflict which
will deprive the countryeof fuel. a re-
opening OF the trouble on the grounds
which are now causing the revival OF
strike talk would be in the last degree
intolerable. justifying the most extreme
measures to put an end forever TO the
tyrannieal power OF this combination.

I'd like to be a militiaman
With nothing else to do
Except to join in the parades
And march a mile or two,
Then take it easy in a tent,
While people come and go,
For it's the easiest life l know.
I'd like to be a militiaman
To travel round the track
With deep blood-red blankets
To decorate my back.

His manners are so fine,
And Just so very lucky,
Not like certain friends of mine.

PREFERENTIAL TARIFFS.

Joseph Chamberlain's preferential
tariff plan is dead. He is not the maj
IN give up with one trial and England
may see the proposition in some form
again and again whether Chamberlain
is in the Cabinet or out of it, but it /;
hardly likely that he will be able t6
force it to the front.
The opposition is not only at home
but as well abroad. The Cooperative
| Societies Qabor unions) by 800 dele
| gates. declared against it as leading TO
higher prices for bread stuffs, and GER
! tainIy Australia will never consent TO
any change in the tariff without fight.
The condition in the south would in
dictate that the confederation has had
hard time reaching a tariff basis, es-
pecfally when the duties were fixed
largely TO bear upon English importa-
tions.
There are, however, many reasons
why the commonwealth of Australians
will never give an enthusiastic and cor
dial support TO Mr.. Chamberlain PLAN
In the opinion of the Melbourne /
Argus, if any preferential trade agree
ment was to be made, it would have
to be based on an increase of the exist
ing tariff on imports from other coun-
tries, for any proposal to reduce the
present rate on imports of English
goods would be bitterly opposed by the
element in the Australian
Parliament. There is another objection
which would doubtless be raised. AT
he present time Australia has none
90 much revenue to meet her expen-
iture, and, after the experience which
he government had in passing the last
ariff bill through Parliament, it is
oubtful # they would care to under ,
AXE a revision of this tariff, particu-
lrIy If it was to be framed so as TO
ring in more revenue, thus strongly :
the free trade element,
nd yet at the same time was to re-
uce the tariff on products of the en-
re. thus antagonizing the high protec-
onists.

Chicago is suffering from the fact
that financiers are not absolutely salts
fed with the form of the loans. The
courts once decided that the city's linn

but a new Interpretation of the law was
had and again the city council au-
thorized an issue of 100000 31a per

were not attracted by the prospect of

HANNA AS MANAGER.

From the attempts 10 show tina
Hanna was opposed to Roosevelt, tn
newspapers of the East have SWUNG
around to an expression OF belief thai
ne viii be the Presidents choice to run
the campaign next year. The success
which attended his two previous terms
as chairman fits the Ohioan for the
place.
OF the candidates for second place
the governor-eIect Of Ohio, Herrick, is
the closest of personal friends of Han
mas and 1t would be natural to see the
Cleveland man working to see his bust
ness associate elected. The Washing
ton Star claims credit for presenting
Herrick and goes on to say as TO Han
ma as campaign manager:
But. for that matter, Mr.. Hanna and
Mr.. Roosevelt are very friendly. They
differ widely in many things. but get
along well together. Their relations
have surprised the friends of both !
All the early predictions on the sub /
5ect have failed. There were few of the
many men TO express themselves after
the Buffalo tragedy who believed that
Mr.. Hanna's intimacy at the White
House would continue. But it has con-
tinued and, so far as the public is ad-
vised. it is likely to go right on. So
that, leaving Mt. Herrick out Of the
question, why, II his health will permit,
should not Mr.. Hanna undertake for
- cd
so successfully for Mr.. Mckinley?
There would be advantages to the
republicans in having Mr.. Hanna again
in charge of their forces. He knows the
field thoroughly. He has demonstrated
his generalship in every part of it. The >
politicians and the people alike have
confidence in him.

KILLS FATHER
Of HIS SPOUSE
Young Farmland Calls
Victim to Door and
Shoots Him.
Returns Home, Kisses His
Wife and Babes and
Rides Away.

WATERLOO. Ill. Sept. 10-william
Hoffman, a young farmland, living near
Mayestown, H.. twelve miles southeast
Of Waterloo, called his father-in-law, Dr..
w. NJ. Brandt. to the door of his house
last night and shot him to death Then
he rode back TO his wife and told her
that 'he had killed the old hound her
father; gave her 81, which he said he
wanted her to spend on the christening
Of their four-weeks-old daughter Mary;
kissed her. and their four children, and
rode into the woods
There are two men must kill before
I kill myself" he said to his wife be-
fore leaving.
The family OF DR.. Brandt offers a re-
ward Of $500 for Hoffman's capture
Sheriff Thomas Rupp and a large posse
are searching for him and expect at any
time to have a pitched battle with him.
He is armed with a shotgun and re-
volvers. Before killing his father-in-law
he purchased fifty rounds of cartridges
for the gun.
Hoffman is unerring marksman,
strong, athletic and the officers believe
was driven to recklessness by whisky and
his imaginary troubles. 1t is supposed
that Hoffman killed his father-in-law be-
cause the old gentleman refused to in
crease his weekly allowance. Dr. Brandt
was quite wealthy and had been practi-
cally supporting his son-in-law and
family.

The man Iound dead near Clyde with
