CAUTION.

This is not gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase the only remedy universally known
and remedy that has bad 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 cali
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 20 cents size
has Just been introduced this year.
Regular size IS cents. For sale by E.S.

Carmant Makers mt Odds.

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE struggle be-
tween the special orderof clothing makers
and the united garment workers for
jurisdiction has reached point where
every shop in the city is picketed and
strife is constant. The special order
men are growing desperate, for they
have been locked out three weeks and in
many cases their places have been taken
by out Of town workers. There is little
hope that the factions will get together.
as the garment workers have served
notice that they will accept the members
of the special order into their organiza-
tons only as individuals.

The Humbert Trial.

Paris, Feb. 11.-One of the most
sensational trials France has seen since
the Dreyfus affair at Rennes, began to-
day when the notorious Humbert
swindlers appeared in court to answer to
charge of libel brought by banker
Cattaui. The Humberts, he charged,
had accused him falsely of usury. Two
hundred spectators squeezed into all con-
ceivable spaces in the small room, the
usual capacity of which is but fifty.
Several notables were in the crowd. A
large number of Others tried to gain
admission, but the gendarmes kept all
out who had no valid reason tor admit
lance. NJ. Humbert, D'Aurignac, Nine.
Humbert's brother, and Maria D'Aurig-
nae entered first, Mile. Maria was
dressed in red, she appeared ready to
collapse from nervousness. After pause
Madame Humbert entered Electrically.
She caused considerable hilarity in court
by stating that she ignored precise
age" She said she was about forty.
She opened her deposition by saying:
"The harm | have done others has caused
me endless sorrow, but my consolation
is my honesty, as God can judge.
Mile. Maria threw the entire response
bility for the libel on Madame Humbert.

GEORGE KEENAN,, in the current
number of the Outlook" begins a
series of articles on Addicks and the
hold-up in Delaware. He says that the
history of political corruption in Della
ware is the history of one man and a
single party. While Others have re-
sorted occasionally to dishonest meth
obs, no systematic attempt was ever
made to corrupt the whole population
and buy up the whole State until Ad-
dicks and the union republican party
took the field" He tells of conditions
in southern Delaware, where "selling
votes to Addicks" has grown to be
matter of course among men OF all
parties, and where his corruption fund
is considered good thing for poor
farmers Though the republicans pro-
fess to abhor corrupt politics, Mr..
Hanna, the chairman of that party, Is
en1eavOring to secure the election OF
Addicks or Addicks men to the U. 5.

A SNUB For Mrs. ROosEvELT.-Mrs.
Theodore Roosevelt has sent handker-
chief to be sold at "Columbia's Re-
ception." a local entertainment in the
interest of the Dallas, Texas, Kinder
garten, which has created storm of
protest among the ladies, who are
managing the festival. The handker-
chief is cotton, machine hemstitched, and
it is said by competentjudges tbatit could
be duplicated in any dry goods store in
Dallas for 10 cents, or "three for a
quarter" The gift was solicited by
by Mrs. w. A. Galloway, of the Dallas
Morning News, who wrote Mrs. Roose-
welt asking that she give something that
could be sold. At the same time she
wrote to Mrs. Jefferson Davis and re-
ceived from her costly handkerchief,
which was beautifully handworked by
Mrs. Davis and contained her monogram.
On Saturday last this gift was accepted,
but after much discussion at a mass
meeting Yesterday over Mrs. Roosevelps
Gift it was moved and seconded that the
3'piece of cotton" should be returned to
Mrs. Roosevelt, after it had been ex-
hibited at so much per look at the re-
ception. The motion was adopted.

Assault and Suicide.

Wheeling, W. Va, Feb. ll.-David
Richards, aged 95, catcher in the
Whitaker mill, this morning assaulted
Joseph Glen, aged 25, a rougher with a
pair of tongs, badly injuring him, and
then rushed to a steam shears and stick
ing his head beneath the ponderous
laws met instant death. The case is
one of the most terrible on record, and
threw the mill into state of excite
ment. Richards was undoubtedly in
sane. He suspected that Glen had
been talking about him, and deter
mined to get rid of him. When he hit
Glen with the tongs he was convinced
he was dead, and his suicide followed.

REV. DR.. w. G. FROST, president OF
Berea College, Kentucky, in the course
of an address on Patriotism" delivered
at the Puritan Congregational Church,
Brooklyn, recently touched on the sub
iect of negro suffrage. cone OF our
high officials has taken occasion within
a few days" DR.. Frost said, 'to pro-
nounce negro suffrage a failure. 1t Is
very much as if he had pronounced the
New York subway failure. Like that,
negro suffrage has not had fair trial,
and it is therefore unfair to condemn II
vet The race has had nearly forty
wears in which to show its fitness fol
suffrage, and the great majority OF then
are not as far advanced as they were II
1860. Up to that time they were borr
and bred among white people and sub
iect to certain restraints which necessarily
taught them morality and good man
ners. They began to deteriorate under
the surzerainty of the Freedmen
Bureau, and while there are some ex'
ceptions the great mass has shown nc
aptitude for citizenship.

Turr FIRMS suspension.

st. Louis. Feb. 11.-Manager Gill of
J. Arnold & Co., whose announced sus
pension of payment on stock caused a
run on practically every turf investment
concern in the city, claims that the com
pany is not a corporation in which the
liability of each stakeholder is limited to
the amount of stock subscribed, but
cooperative partnership in which every
subscriber is a partner. Hence, every
subscriber is liable for the entire debts
of the partnership. Arnold may decide
to wind up the affairs of the company,
and 90 out of business. AS an indica-
cation of the enormous business done by
the company, it is stated that the time
the reduction in weekly interests from b
to 2 per cent. was made, the company
stood run in which 81, 400, 900 was
paid out in two days. 1t is figured that
the firm had 81, 900, 900 to 1000, 900
on hand. AS far as could be seen the
firm was doing business which called
for capital of about 800, 900; that is,
in making book s25, 900 was required
and running staole of horses required
$50. 900. The firm bet freely but
another s25, 900 would cover its opera
tons on that line. SO it was estimated
that the firm could not get action.
A petition in bankruptcy will be filed
by E. J. Arnold & Company in ST.
Louis today. The liabilities will be
placed at about $500, 900. The assets
will probably not exceed 800, 900, tied
up in race horses, breeding farm, and
furniture.

IT IS said in Washington that General
Grosvenor will soon attempt to have the
ship subsidy bill taken from the COM
mittee on merchant marine and fisheries,
of which he is chairman, and passed
This measure has been permitted to re-
main in the committee room ever since
its passage by the Senate last session.
General Grosvenor, at the instigation OF
the shipping trust, has decided to ac-
cent the amendments of the lake steam
ship and Pacific coast people. Western
opposition. which has had the effect OF
keeping the bill in the committee until
this time, is to be removed by the
amendment giving to freight-carrying
vessels upon the great lakes a share OF
the plumber proposed. Senators Hanna
and FRYE have been forcing the bill all
they can. There is strong opposition
to the measure in the House, even
among the republicans, and the party
lash will have to be applied before 1t Is
finally adopted, but since it is probable
that some antitrust legislation will be
passed, the members of the shipping
combine will insist upon the passage OF
their bill, so that any loss they may sus-
tain by antitrust bills will be made
good to them by the money they would
secure from ship subsidies.
