TOOK A STRAW VOTE.


An advertising agent, representing a
prominent New York magazine, while
on recent western trip, was dining
one evening in Pittsburg restaurant
While waiting for his order he glanc
ed over his newspaper and noticed the
advertisement of well known dys
pepsia preparation, Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets; as he himself was a regular
user of the tablets, he began speculat-
ing as to how many of the other travel.
ing men in the dining room were also
friends of the popular remedy for indi-
gestion.
He says: 81 counted, % men at the
tables and in the hotel office / took
the trouble to interview them and was
surprised to learn that nine of the %
made a practice of taking one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal.
"One of them told me he had suf-
fered SO much from stomach trouble
that at one time he had been obliged
to quit the road, but since using Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets had been en-
tirely free from indigestion, but he
continued their use, especially while
travelling, on account of irregularity in
meals and because like all travelling
men he was often obliged to eat what
he could get and not always what he
wanted.
another, who looked the picture
of health, said he never ate a meal
without taking a Stuart Tablet after
ward because he could eat what he
pleased and when he pleased without
fear of sleepless night or any other
trouble.
"Still another used them because he
was subject to gas on stomach, caus-
ing pressure on heart and lungs, short
ness of breath and distress in chest,
which he no longer experienced since
using the tablets regularly.
another claimed that Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets was the only safe rem
edy he had ever found for sour stom-
ach and acidity. He had formerly used
common soda to relieve the trouble,
but the tablets were much better and
safer to use
After smoking, drinking or other ex-
cesses which weaken the digestive or
gans, nothing restores the stomach to
a healthy, wholesome condition SO
effectually as Stuart's Tablets.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
the natural digestive, pepsin, dastase,
which every weak stomach lacks, as
well as nux, hydrastin and yellow pa
rilla, and can be safely relied on as
a cure for every form of poor digestion.
Sold by druggists everywhere.

SCARED NEGRO TAKES
HIS LIFE BY HANGING

He asserted his innocence, but finally,
under severe questioning, made the re-
mark: "Well, there are others in this.
III tell you more about it tomorrow.
This forenoon small fire occurred
near the Jail and caused some excite
ment. After it had been extinguished
Sheriff Heneken went to Williams cell
to question him and found the prisoner
dead. He had hanged himself. 1t was
thought that the excitement caused by
the fire led Williams to believe that
he was about to be lynched and he
hanged himself with a sheet. -

New Haven. CT, Sept. 2S.-John G. Car
ruth of Philadelphia, president of the In
ternational Title and Trust Co. was, to-
day, appointed receiver for the ConSol-
dated Lake Superior Co. by Judge Platt

was presented by Judge Walter G. NoycS
of the firm of Noyes & Brandeges of New
London. in behalf of H. f. Rothermel. Jr:,
Samuel NJ. Clemens. Jr. and Joseph Def.
Junkn of Philadelphia. attorneys for GER
tain stockholders of the company.
1t was set forth in the application that
the directors of the company had failed
to take up the loan of $5,050,000 of Speyer
e. Co., New York; that the actual value
of the plant as expressed in the amount
expended in buildings. machinery and
other properties is far in excess of the
amount of the loan and that the stock
holders fear that if a forced sale were
allowed they would lose the entire amount
of their investment.
A receiver was therefore asked for and
also temporary Injunction to prevent
the sale of the property under foreclos-
ure proceedings.
Judge Lynde Harrison, counsel for the
company presented a written stateme"t

ed that further proceedings would be held
