AT THE NATIONAL
CAPITAL.
What Postum Did There.

A we'll known figure at the national
capital is that of an attorney at law
and solicitor of patents, who has been
practicing before the courts and the
Department of the Interior at Wash
tngton for more than % years. The
experience of this gentleman with cof-
fee is unusually interesting, for it
proves that although the i'll results
from coffee are slow they are sure. He
says: IT have consumed coffee at my
meals for many years, but of late
years have been annoyed by deraneed
stomach and sleeplessness, pains in my
head, nervousness and confusion of the

MAN WHO WAS ROBBED
HELD AS WITNESS
Alleged to Have Been Offered Money
to Skip Out.

Alleged to Have Been offered Money
to skip Out.
On his way from Florida to South
Carolina to see his wife, who several
weeks ago was at deaths door, Joe
Bright, country negro, was robbed of
SIG on the West Side early yesterday
morning. Now Bright is detained by
the police as a witness.
An effort was made to fleece the ne
gro out of his money by means of the
double knife game, and when he
wouldn't bite his money was taken
from him by force. He reported his
loss at police headquarters, and then
began a search, on his own account,
for the culprit. There were two men
implicated in the robbery and Bright
located one of them in the person or
Ed Green, a negro who has been rath-
er favorably known in police circles.
Mounted Sergeant ]. A. Woods and
Union Patrolman Walker chased the
suspect and caught him under rather
peculiar circumstances.
The negro outran the officers, and
managed to get into bed at his nome,
and pretend to be i'll, before the men
in uniform could lay their hands upon
him. When the officers entered the
room Green was coughing at great
rate and denied all knowledge OF the
crime, or chase. He was made a pr1s-
oner. however, and was sent to the po-
lice station house on a charge of high
way robbery. Ida Kent was also
placed in custody for assisting the man
in making his escape. The prosecutor
stated that Green assisted in the rob-
berry. and that the man who actually
took the money had not yet been locat-
ed. He was certain, however, that
Green was the second man who assist
ed in the game that had been SO sue
cessfully worked upon him.
Upon his arrival at police headquar-
ters Bright was detained as witness.
In many cases where country negroes
have been robbed, and the culprits
have been arrested, the prosecutors
are paid to leave the city, or get tired
waiting for the case to come up in a
higher court, and leave of their own
accord. To prevent such miscarriages
of justice the police have determined
to detain as witnesses all prosecutors
who do not reside in the county, and
whose evidence is necessary for con-
viction. In this way it is hoped to
break I'D the system of robbing coun-
try negroes. After he had been placed
in restraint Bright expressed will
ingness to remain in the hands of the
police until Green is punished.
The prosecutor had already been ap-
preached by friends of the guilty per-
sons and offered money to get out OF
the city. 1t was the making of these
offers that prompted the police to hold
him. Bright had been employed in
Florida, and a day or two ago received
a letter, written several weeks ago, in
which it was announced that his wife
was quite i'll. Just what her condi-
ton is at this time he has been unable
to learn, but is willing to stay and
prosecute Green, and the woman who
is alleged to have aided him in eluding
the officers. The case will be called by
Recorder Myrick in Police Court to-
morrow, and in the event that the
prisoner is held the matter will be taxi
en- up in the City Court as soon as pos
sible.

HOW TO BE
Cured of piles without Pain.

First: Change from sedentary occu-
patton to wisely chosen, more active
work.
Second: From indoor to outdoor life.
Third: From wrong to right clothing.
Fourth: From unhealthy, rich living
to a mild hygienic diet.
Fifth, sixth and last, use Pyramid
Pile Cure regularly, and according to
directions, for it is the right cure for
the trouble, and will cure you as it
has hundreds of others.
Don't wait until you are a helpless
invalid, for a seemingly simple. case of
hemorrhoids, or piles, may, if neglect
ed, rapidly lead to worse. The I'M
natural formations become humorous
and permanent, and the Inflammation
grows until assesses form; the dis
ease burrows into the tissues, forming
tubular growths which discharge pus;
cancerous conditions, and general gan
grenous degeneration appear.
What is needed at the start, or at any
stage. is something to soothe this in
f1ammation, reduce the swelling and
distension, and at the same time re-
stores the diseased parts to normal con-
dition. These three things are accom-
plished perfectly by the Pyramid Pile
Cure. It checks all progress of the
disease. and rapidly returns the affected
parts to health, besides relieving at
once the pain and fearful irritation.
81 began using Pyramid Pile Cure,
and in order to make sure of "A cure
bought five packages; for the past six
weeks / have not been troubled in the
least, and had been bothered for IS
years. and had spent more than $50 for
different remedies; this is the first per-
manent help have had, and no one
could feel more grateful than / do" l..

COLON, Dee 14.-Through the exam
nation of the San Bias coast made by
the United States cruiser Atlanta and
the converted cruiser Mayflower, both
Of which vessels have returned here, 1t
has been clearly established that the
Colombian cruisers General Pinzon and
Cartagena appeared in the gulf of Da-
rien about thirty-siX hours after they
were reported as having left Carta-
gena. No reliable evidence, however,
could be obtained to show that any Of
the troops carried by the cruisers had
been landed either on the gulf coast or
northwest thereof.
The Atlanta and the Mayflower made
q thorough inspection OF the entire vi
cinity. 1t was learned that at one
coast point the Cartagena embarked a
small quantity of naval stores, few
bullocks, some corn and fifty pieces of
zinc roofing, but no information could
be obtained as to the direction taken by
the cruiser thereafter 1t has been re-
ported that Colombian troops were
landed at certain point on the Pan
anna coast, but the Atlanta was present
at this place at the time when accord
ing to the report, the troops should
have been landed and saw nothing.
The information obtained by the At
lanta and Mayhower points TO two
probabilities, either that the Colombian
troops have returned to Cartagena or
that they have been landed at some
point OH the coast between Cartagena
and the gulf of Darisn and may be
proceeding thence toward Cauca.
The Indian interpreters aboard the
Atlanta conferred with the chiefs Of
the territory, who gave them positive
assurance that no Colombian troops
had been landed and who said that
even If they did land it would be i'm
possible for them to pass through ow-
ing TO the total absence of mountain
trails. The Atlanta steamed forty
mics farther toward the Atrato river
obtaining similar information every
where. A report to this effect has been
made to Admiral Coglilan.
The United States auxiliary cruiser
Prairie, which sailed from Guantana-
mo. has arrived here. The supply ship
Culgoa has gone 10 meet the fleet at
Culebra.
The Atlanta has sailed again toward
the gulf Of Darien and will continue a
careful patrol of the coast
1t would be impossible for the Car
tagena and the General Pinzon to en-
ter the Atrato river because the mouth
OF the river has a six foot bar. No
small boats are obtainabe thereabout,
and no considerable number OF troops
could be transported up the river.
The remainder of the marines on
board the auxiliary cruiser Dixie will
be landed tomorrow, satisfactory ar
rangements having been completed to
obtain good water for the camp at
Culebra, on the line of the Panama
railroad
