remarkable fraud. Nearly a year ago
information reached the department tpat
strongly indicated that frauds of a seri-
Gus nature had been and were being per-
petrated against the government under
what is known as the forest reserve lieu
land act of June 4. 1897. by a combination
Of land spectators on the Pacific coast.
While several hundred thousand acres
of public lands are irfvoIved in the illegal
transactions brought TO light, the num-
Der of acres to which patents have been
obtained by the perpetrators of the frauds
is comparatively small.
The department has waged a bitter war
against the unlawful fencing OF public
land Nearly 100000 acres Of public
landw as thus fenced off by cattlemen,
who shot down the owners of intermedi-
ate holdings and rode roughshod over tse
country. The chief offender in this line
was Chauncey Dewey owner OF the West
End Ranch. in Cheyenne county, Kan.
Within the past three years Dewey and
his men. representing the Dewey Cattle
company, fenced of eighty-two miles OF
land. enclosing an area Of 51,ocJ acres
Among these acres were some 300 acres
of State lands and 100 acres Of home

his home thus summarily taken from him
Dewey and his employees surrounded the
Berry farmhouse and killed three mem
bers of the Berry family This was on

Southern Families.

Washington, Dec. 16-Announcement of
the marriage Of Miss Lucy Francis Pick

interest in the South Carolina colony

c. Butler, and has many admirers and
friends Her father was a native of Au-

Mr.. Tillman is the eldest son of Sem
ator B. r. Tillman. He VISA graduated at
Clemson college. has studied law and is
at present clerk to the committee on

The match is a sort of Romeo and Jul
liet affair for the family of Miss Du-
gas's mother and that of Mr.. Tillmans
father were as widely separated at one
time as the Montagues and Capulets,
though without the latter's aninosity
The ancestral tree of the prospective
bride is big enough to shelter much OF
the aristocrary of the south, while that
of the bridegroom is of more recent
growth Much is expected from the dlil-
ance in the way of smoothing out certain
social barriers which are more or less
conspicuous in ''Dixieland."
The wedding. which is set for December
%. will be quiet, out of respect for the
mourning of the bride. 1t will acquire
great eclat nevertheless, from the mag

MARCH OF IMPERIALISM,
Mexican Organ Seese a Change in Its
Neiuhbor.

Mexico City. Dec. 16.-El Impartial or
gan of the liberal party has a leading
article on American imperialism in which
it is argued that the immense increase
of late years in military and naval pre-
parations gives evidence of the march
of Imperialism.
BY abandoning its ancient policy of
domestic activity and quiet prosperity
and following in the path of European
nations, the United States will be at
tackled by all the infrmities and shaken
by all the agitations common in Europe
The old fashioned American Democrats
reject the rising imperialism because
they regard It as sure to disturb develop
ment of the countries wealth and hinder
its triumphant progress, and FL impartial
asks this new policy of Imperialism may
not induce the cadence of the republic
of Mexico.

effective digestive preparation like Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, obtainable OF all druggists, which
are pleasant and perfectly safe TO supply the
lacking fluids that cause digestion and proper
nutrition, thus strengthening the entire system
and insuring a strong, vigorous, healthy body.
1t is safe to say that the regular, persistent
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at mealtime
will cure any form of stomach trouble except
cancer of the stomach
Mrs. Lydia Bartram of Assyria, Mich, writes:
Il have suffered from stomach trouble for 10
years and FIVE different doctors gave me only
temporary relief. A Mr.. +. X. Page advised me
to try Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and four boxes
did me more permanent benefit than all the doc
tors medicines that have ever taken.
Mrs. G. H. Crotsley, 53S Washington St.,
Hoboken, n. j., writes: "Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Just fill the bill for children as well as
for older folks. I've had the best OF luck with
them. My three-year-old girl takes them as
readily as candy. l have only to say Tablets
andshedrops everythlngelse and runs for them"

vention held before that of the Repubh-

by ST. Louis. Milwaukee and Baltimore to
secure the convention.
Just what is the purpose OF holding the
Democratic convention at such an early

In another way, also, the heart is affected BY
the form OF poor digestion, which causes gas
and fermentation from half digested food.
There is Affecting of oppression and heaviness in
the chest caused by pressure of the distended
stomach on the heart and lungs, interfering with
their action; hence arises palpitation and short
breath.
Poor digestion also pOisons the blood, making
it thin and watery, which initiates AID weakens
the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart trouble
is to improve the digestion and to insure the
prompt assimilation of food.
The slightest arrangement of the stomach
impairs digestion and nutrition. Some of the
symptoms OF indigestion are fullness in the
region of the stomach, sourness, emission of
gases, collie, loss of energy, drowsiness narrowing
dreams, bitter taste in the mouth offensive
breath, sick headache, giddiness, disturbed Sleep
salow countenance, heartburn, irregularity of
appetite, etc.
Many suffering from dyspepsia make the
grave mistake of assuming that they need cathar-
tics to force the liver to throw of the load, and
thereby frequently cause the graver evil of dis

Stricken With Heart Disease

Pick up almost any newspaperand you will find
an account Of some person being stricken with
heart disease. Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans is on the increase. No doubt this is
due in part to the worry, excitement and strenu-
osty of modern American business life, and yet
how many, many times it is the result of weak
stomachs, of Rpor digestion.
While real organic heart trouble is incurable,
it is comforting to know that not more than one
case in every hundred is organic. The re-
mainder are functional, being due to sympa-
thetic disturbance, produced through the nervous
system, caused by great muscular prostration,
improper nutrition, in short, dyspepsia
This functional disturbance of the hearts
action is manifested by palptation, irregularity
of beats, intermisson, rolling or tumbling move
ment and feeling as if the heart were in the
throat. These symptoms often give rise to great
apprehension, anxiety. fear and depression of
mind. But since the cause of the trouble is
indigestion, it readily yields to Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, the great panacea for all stomach
disorders and sympathetic ailments. The close
relation between heart trouble, and poor diges-
ton is due to the fact that the heart the great
force pump of the system, to which all of the
veins and arteries of the body may be directly or
indirectly traced, and the stomach are controlled
