Judge Ellsworth, he was unable to tell
from the answers he received TO his
questions to whom the property be-
longs.
Peter Thompson, the father, was re-
puted a millionaire and died about
three years ago and left his estate

himself into serious trouble until a
few nights ago. when he climbed into
a window Of the residence Of DR.. Car
Teton at 8 o'clock in the morning and
came very nearly being shot A charge
of insanity was then placed against
him and at his examination he was de-
clared insane and the sister, Lucy, was

MISUSE OF KINGS CIPHER
BY TORY CANDIDATES
Quickly. Denounced as Unauthorized
by His Private Secretary,
KuOlIys.

The Kings cipher incident, which of
itself would be sufficient to make the
bi-elections at Dulwich and Lewis
ham memorable, is. we fancy, not like
ly to be repeated by Tariff Leaguers
at any future election.
The facts have already been given,
but they are worth brief repetition.
Large placards were last week issued
OH behalf Of the Tory candidates, and
announcing meetings at which they
and their supporters would speak. The
placards were decorated by a life-size
presentment of Britannia, on the
sleeve of whose robe were embroider-
ed the words, "Eduardus Rex" Bri-
tannia's hand rested on a shield en-
blazoned with the Union Jack. bearing
in the center his Majesty's cipher.
We were able yesterday to state
authoritatively that the King had CIV
en- no sanction to this action on the
part of the eager Protectionist politi-
clans. and that steps would be taken
to prevent its continuance.
This is confirmed by the following
telegram, dispatched from Buckingham
Palace yesterday afternoon, addressed
to F. w Soutter, Liberal Club, Penge:
IN reply to your telegram. it is al
most unnecessary for me to say that
no permission has been given to make
use in any way of the Kings name
and cipher. and you are authorized to
state this.-Knollys."
Mr.. Soutter's telegram, to which the
above is a reply, was as follows:
ITO his Majesty King Edward VII.
Buckingham Palace: Tariff Reform
League are using the royal name and
cipher on bills and large posters. Penge
workmen hope this is not to be taken
as evidence that their King is in favor
of the taxation of food and other neces-
saries of life, and as loyal subjects
would rejoice to receive an assurance
thereon
Mr.. Soutter is one of the agents Of
the Free Trade Union, and has been
working and speaking for free trade
in the Penge district for the last four
teen days. His attention was drawn
to the unauthorized" posters on Sun
day by a Dulwich voter. who asked
him if it was fact that his Majesty
the King had declared himself to be
supporter of Mr.. Chamberlain.
Mr.. Soutter's reply was to the effect
that he had no knowledge upon the
subject. He decided to telegraph di-
rect to the King, with the result seen
above.-London News.

From the handful of graduates
that entered the study in 1892,
under DR.. \. Y. Still, at kirksvllle,
Mo-, there are now upwards OF
two thousand six hundred prac-
ticing Osteopathy. There is not
a State in the Union that can not
boast of at least one or more, and
they are practicing in Canada,
Hawaiian islands, China, Japan
and England.
An illustration: Walking along

lady in front of him with a sick
child about four years old. lie
noticed that the child was suffer.
ing with dysentary, bloody tluX
as it is commonly called. He took
the child in his arms to carry 1T
home for the mother, and when he
did so he found that its back and
neck were hot and some OF the
tissues were rigid, others loose,
also that its abdomen was cold.
That set him to thinking and
started him to working for a
thought with him must be put into
some practical form. lie regulated
all abnormalties along the spine,
loosened up the tissues and. be-
hold, the child was out playing
the next day as though it had
never been sick. He applied the
same methods to number OF
other cases with the same results,
so he attacked disease after dis
ease and OsteOpaths in all parts
of the United States have ven
tured to treat those heretofore
