Miss Ing!es was associated with Sena.
tor William Goebel in behalf of Mt.
Blackburn, and eventually they won.
She was particularly skillful in learn
ing the plans Of the opposition, and
kept the Blackburn forces informed in
advance of every move.
Personally Miss IDgles is hand
some. She is distinct brunette,
tall, and slender, and in speech is
both pleasing and convincing. She
has happy faculty of bringing her
arguments to such climax that her
meaning cannot be misunderstood.
She is clever in repartee, too, and has
never yet been put to confusion by
the questions propounded by skepti-
cal hearers.

Cocaine SniRers.

Following up the information se-
cured from Mayor Lowry q few days
ago as to the development of the CO.
caine habit among the negroes of
Yorkville, the reporter has had talk
on the subject with negro of good
intelligence, who is in pretty close
! touch with the class that is. becoming
addicted to the drug.
The negro referred to, although o
habitual drinker Of whiskey, denies
that he has ever experienced the SEN
sations that make cocaine 80 much
sought after, but has observed the ef-
fect on others, both men and women.
"They tell me-" he said, "that CO.
cain does you like whiskey, except
it don't make you want to go to sleep.
When you keep on drinking whiskey
and lie down, you'll,go to sleep; but
when you sniff cocaine, you don't
never want to 60 to sleep any more.
But you cant get along without it.
Several of these niggers around here
what used to drink whiskey all the
time, have quit drinking whiskey and
gone to shifting cocaine. Some Of
them, not many, sniff cocaine and
drink whiskey both, and that seems
to just make 'em plumb crazy"
"Some Of these negroes around
here" suggested the reporter, ':are go
trifing that they won't work for any
body at any price, or under any cir
oumstanoes. Without reference to
these but only TO those who, within
your knowledge have contracted the
cocaine habit, what he's been the ef.
feet on their disposition, as 60 work."
SWELL, I spec dey aims as good
workers as dey wuz. From dc best 7
can git pusson don't !. want to work
when dey's been snifin' cocaine no
morn dey do when dey have been
drinkin' whiskey; but all dat I knows
works as good as dey ever did. spec.
tally when dat's de only way dey got
to git the money to buy cocaine"
The negro went on to say that co.
caine was probably cheaper than whis-
Ky; that an excessive user consumes
about 10 cents worth each "a hours;
that there are some who exceed this
limit; that beginners take less; that
votaries Of the habit seldom leave it
off. aud that they are recognizable

PEANUTS AND SLEEP.

taken at certain hour of the year, in
the season of towering, else it is
worthless. Strange to say, moderate
quantity of the plant will kill horse

season an unlimited quantity may be
eaten with inpunity. The medicine

soother and sleep producer. It has
no reaction, does not engender habit,
and is therefore particularly good for
nervous and sleeplsss persons. The
plant is known to botanists as passi-
flora incarnata, and it bears yellowish
fruits tbs size and shape of hens

Many sufferers from insomnia would
promptly pet over it if they would
make practice of eating little
something before they went to bed.
Half dozen fried oysters are excel
lent for the purpose, or even few
crackers. A bottle of beer taken just
before retiring is q great help, es-
pecially if a bite or two be eaten
with it. A hot bath before bed,
plenty of fresh air in the bed room,
aad good thick pillow to keep the
head high are first rate remedies for
sleelessnees.
The hot bath and the high pillow
tend to cause the blood to flow away
from the brain, and the problem is
to get rid Of it. Drugs like chloral
and morphine contract the small
blood vessels and thus expel the
blood; but prolonged use of them
makes sleep impossible without their
aid. Anxiety, joy, grief and all
other emotions cause blood to flow to-
ward the brain. Accordingly in bad
cases physicians sometimes apply cold
congresses to the head, or wrap the
body in wet sheets.
When person eats before going to
bed the blood is drawn away from the
brain to help digestion, and thus sleep
is encouraged. knowledge of the fact
that the brain in sleep is comparative
ly bloodless led DR.. Durham, q fa-
nous Psychologist, to try to induce
slumber arti6cially by outing off the
blood supply from the brain. This
he attempted by COMPRISING the caro-
It'd arteries in the neck, and after
thirty seconds-the experiments being
tried on himself and his friend-he
invariably succeeded in producing i'm
mediate and deep slumber. A soft
humming in the ears was heard "a
sense Of tingling stole over the body,
and in few seconds complete uncon-
soiousness supervened."
When you go to sleep your eye
balls turn upward, your breathing be-
comes slower, and the amount Of air
you take into your lungs is only about
one-seventh Of what you require when
awake. Your heart, too, works more
slowly and less vigorously than in
your waking hours. Indeed, sleep
may almost be considered an approach
to death, the vital functions being to
eo greet sn extent reduced in their
activity and energy.

Woman TO Stump for Parker.

Lexington, Ky, Sept. 30.-Miss
Margaret Ingles, a vivacious Ken
tucky lass. has gone to New York to
answer summons from Thomas Tag
gart, chairman Of the Democratic
National Committee, who wants her
to begin 6 stump speaking campaign
through the State Of Indiana. Miss
Ingles is well known in kentucky
and several other States as q cam
paign orator, but this time she will
undertake to "whoop up the farmers
Of Indiana.
Shortly after the St. Louis Conven-
tion Miss Ingles offered her services
to the campaign committee, and re.
ceived assurances that she would be
called upon.
II had hoped for the nomination Of
Mr.. Bryan" she said to-day, "but,
like politician, 1 must abide by the
majority Of the party, and will give
Mr.. Parker my hearty support.
would not mention my preference for
Mr.. Bryan, but you know 1 spoke for
him in the campaign Of 1896 aud 1900,
and suppose l have become q little
partial to him"
Miss Ingles spoke from the same
platform as Mr.. Bryan in 1896, when
that leader was in Lexington. and
faced the largest audience that ever
greeted public speaker in this State.
Miss 1ngles was highly complimented
by Mr.. Bryan, who said that she was
remarkably well posted on all political
matters.
II found in that campaign" said
Miss Ingles, "many localities where
woman in politics was looked upon
as o woman in church. You know in
many parts Of the country woman
is not allowed to raise her voice in
church work and especially to addre lf
q congregation. Some Of the old men
would say I was out Of my sphere, but
they would come to hear me, and
found them among my most enthu
siastio hearers"
Miss Ingles was trained for the
stage. She took Juvenile parts while
still very young. Later she deter
mined to abandon the stage for poll
tics and che did. She was made enroll
ing clerk Of the Kentucky Senate ir
recognition of her work in the 1896
campaign.
Afterward she gave valuable assist
ance to Senator Blackburn in his cam
paign for reelection. The contest
was one of the hardest seen in Ken
tucky in many years, owing to the pre-
dominating influence of Republicans
in the State Government at that time

Thwarted by @ Witness.

"A little flash of humor on the part
of witu:ss will often destroy the
best of legal examinations, said a
well known lawyer. "Not long ago
had criminal case in which one of the
best witnesses for the prosecution was
a negro. Before the csronar he had
made two different statements as to
the number Of times he had seen one
of the principals in the case, and
intended to trip him up on it in the
cross examination. If he said the
first number | should confront him
with the other statement from the
testimony before the coroner, and
vice versa. I thought l had him cor
nered, no matter how he answered.

climax, and finally asked Elm in my
most confident manner:
"How many times did you say that
you saw this child ?"
He hesitated moment, and he re-
piled in surly tone:
II didn't say / saw it all. 1 laid /

even the Judge had to smile, and
though hammered away at him, all
the effect that I had sought was lost
beyond repair. "--Philadelphia Record.
