frightened owe the prospective out

Mitchell. but out of sympathy for
that inexperienced town they respect
fully recommend that she stop shoot
ing her dye stuff now and go to build

profitable and less expensive at the
rate she is now going, or tying to

pathetic appeals in order to raise a
small portion of the first campaign

where will Mitchell be in 1904 after
exercising herself for two years?
Any recommendations from the
Free Press are too lame to be taken
into consideration by Mitchell during
the capital campaign. A month or
two before the legislature met some
recommendations were offered that it
would be unnecessary to expend so
much energy in trying to secure the
passage of a removal resolution
through the legislature, for it was
supposed that Pierre was too strong
for any adversary to overcome. Was
it? Mitchell is getting along very
nicely at the present time, thank
you. Pierre has her methods in run
inng a capital campaign, and Mitch
ell has her way, and that it is a win
ming one has been demonstrated to
Pierre, evidently to her complete sat-
isfaction.

In the death of Pope Leo XIII. not
only the Catholic world loses a grand,
good man, but the Protestants will
regret his death to a sincere degree.
Pope Leo had the profound respect Of
all civilized nations in his efforts of
upbuilding the religious cause of his
great church, and the reverence that
was paid him by its followers is a ST.
lent tribute Of the splendid worth Of
the man. 1t was a quarter Of a cen
tury ago. at the age Of IS, that Pope
Leo assumed the head of the Roman
Catholic church. and it was no easy
task that was set before him at that
time, for then there was a new spirit
of democracy fast making its appear
church and state were being discard
ed, and it took a mar Of sound judg-
ment to bring along the church to
meet the new conditions. The records
do not show that Leo made a mistake
in bis administration of the affairs of
the church and that he was able to
keep in touch with the trend Of events
and harmonic them for the good OF
his people. With the different class
es of the Catholic church it was not
an easy task to promulgate one thing
in France and have it work in har-
mony with the Catholics of Germany.
The most notable act of recent date
was his solution of the problem in
the Philippine Islands, where he
readily agreed that it was impossible
to keep in vogue the customs of the
Spanish friars in church matters anc
readily agreed to the substitution o.
the American methods. The worlc
will mourn the loss Of this man who
has ingratiated himself in the hearts
of the people.

A Woman's Wealth,
Paine'SC Celery
Compound
GIVES VIGOR AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
RUN DOWN WOMEN.

1t is maintained by many distinguished
writers that the greatness of a nation depends
much upon the physical condition OF its
women The general conditions which con-
tribute TO health and long life, are those which
do not imply a rapid and unequal exhaustion
of those powers by which life is maintained.
While we assert that the women of sur land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them lovahle, we cannot hide the fact
that there are thousands in our midst who,
owing to overwork, worry, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion of life power, have
become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debili-
tated.
We bring to the~sattention of all weary,

Up in the north part Of the state
Monday a hailstorm visited one or
two counties and practically wiped
out the grandest crop prospects that
the country up there has had for sew
eral years. 1t is exceedingly hard to
nurse along such elegant crops until
nearly ready for the binder and 1t has
a tendency to make a man wonder
why it is thus. In a dry year a farm
er can see his crop go inch by inch
and it does not strike him so forcibly
as to have his grain standing erect
and ready to be harvested and in
thirty minutes lose the whole Of it.

U. OF c. BUN FOR GAIN Z?
President Harper Says Not-Chi-
cag0 Thinks 1t Is.

Chicago, Aug. 5.-The Superior Court has been
called upon to decide whether the University of
Chicago is operated for gain or is purely re-
ligious and charitable institution. The city
takes one view of the case and the university
the other. The question arose over bill for
water. The city has been supplying water to
the university without receiving pay for it. until
the bill ran up to $500. Then it sent a col
lector to see DR.. William R. Harper the presi-
dent of the university. The collector came back
without the cash. and Superintendent Nourse
threatened to shut off the water. whereupon the
university management petitioned the court for
an injunction to restrain the city from carrying
out its threat.
The petition is based on the city ord ex-
empting from the payment of water bills re-
ligious charitable or eluca ional institutions not
operated for gain. The university maintains
that it comes under this last head. as it is an
educational institution. which is not making
money. In his petition President Harper ayers
that the university is running behind at the
rate of 100000 a year. expenditures eX~ eeding
the amount received for tn on fees and dues to
that extent, and that the de C has to be made
up "by soliciting subscriptions from persons in

CALLS THEM FRAUDS.
Court Sets aside ut. Vernon assess
ments for Bedford-aUe. Work.

decision OF Justice Garrettson, of the Supreme
Court filed yesterday in White Plains practically
sets aside the assessments levied by Mount Vernon
for improvements in Bedford-ave. prominent
street of that city amounting to about $4,000. The
court holds the assessments excessive and fraudu.
lent.
There are twenty actions pending, but this de-
cision, which was in the proceeding brought
through William J. Fee, practically determines
them all The work done under the super-
vision Of John O'TooIe. Commissioner OF Public
Works. a Democrat who has since been removed
from office by the Common Council.
In the complaints the plaintiffs allege that .the
Commissioner of Public Works, or his chief engi-
neer or both, conspired or confederated together
for the purpose Of fraudulently procuring from the
defendants payment to the contractor. Bart Dunn
at contract rates for more excava ton than he
would do could do under the contract" Bart
Dunn is said to be a brother of ex-Shertf Tom"
Dunn, Of this city. They further allege that the
Public Works Department issued false certificates
for the of work done.
The affair has created public scandal in Mount
Vernon. Since the Board of Aldermen voted TO re-
move Commissioner O'Toole he has obtained stav
from the Supreme Court until his can be
argued before the Appellate Division which will
not be until late this fall In the mean while the
Commissioner O'Toole and his engineers denied on

URGENT MESSAGES UNANSWERED.
State Department Cannot Communicate with
the Minister to Colombia.

Washington. Aug. 5.-some surprise is ex-
pressed at the State Department that no reply
has been received from Bogota to several I'M
portant dispatches sent to Mr.. Beaupre the
American Minister some time ago Although
there is a war on between the Colombian Gov
ernment and the company controlling the 18TH
mian cables and communication with COLOMBIA
is suspended the State Department made spe-
oiaI arrangements with the company for the
transmission of these dispatches to Mr. Beaupre
and for his reply. 1t was expected that the
answer would be received early this week. and
the delav causes suspicion that perhaps the Co
lombian Government, which controls the land
lines from Bogota to Buena Ventura, has re-
fused to transmit any messages coming over the
cable company's lines in retaliation for the
co,npany's course. In view of the fact that the
subject of Mr. Loomis's dispatches was most
urgent and the President was deeply interested
in the reply it hoped that the Colombian
Government would cooperate IN the rapid
transmission of the messages.
