New York Sun Special Service.

Philadelphia, Oct: 1.-When the rob
berry of Mrs. Albert M: Reyl by
Charles Castleman, theatrical sharper,
in Central park, New York. was made
public today, there was evidence that
many other women barely escaped a
similar fate at the hands of. the same
man. 1t is said that the prisoner has
been asking if they had any talented
students who would like to Join the
Henry w. Savage Opera company.
Mrs. Owen B. Jenkins made an ap-
pointment with him, saying that she
would have two promising pupils there
for him to meet.
He appeared and was introduced to
Miss Jeanette Mcintyre Of Fargo,
n. D., Miss Edith Morgan and Miss
Bradley Of Philadelphia. Castleman1
was then &C. D. Hoyt' and had good
places for all.
He said he could give Miss McIntyre
a small part of $75, but that it would
cost her $3.50 to get it. # she did not
have the money he would advance 1t
to her.
Mrs. Jenkins became suspicious of
him because he acted as tho he had
been drinking and after he went away
called Henry Savage on the telephone
and learned that Hoyt had no connec
tion with the Savage Opera company.
Arrangements were then made to ar
rest Hoyt upon his return, but he die
not return owing to his arrest here.

the VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful Tt Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Few People Know How Useful Tt Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty. ~
Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient dis
infectant and purifier in nature, but few
realize it's value when taken into the
human system for the same cleansing
purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases
and impurities always present In the.
stomach and intestines and carries them
out Of the system. =
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating onions
and other odorous vegetables. =
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for the money is In
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges;. they are
composed of the finest powdered Will
low charcoal. -and, other harmless anti
form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges,
| the charcoal being mixed with honey.
| The daily use Of these lozenges will
soon tell in much improved condition
of the general health, better complexion,
sweeter breath and purer blood, and the
beauty Of itais, that no possible harm
can result from their continued use, but
on the contrary, great benefit.
| A Buffalo physician, in speaking OF
the benefits of charcoal, says: Il adj

patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complexion
and purity the breath, mouth and

CANNON SPEAKS

Reciprocity and Democratic Free
Trade His Themes at Des

Gpecial to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Des Moines, Iowa, Oct. l. Uncle

terday and today. This morning he left

near Iowa City. He will speak at DAY.
export to night.
Before an immense crowd IN the Audi,
forum last night the speaker discussed
reciprocity, saying in part:
"Under Blaine and Mckinley and
Harrison great many treaties were
made by which our products go into
their markets free That is republican
reciprocity between other products and
our products, we taking products that
we cannot produce. This does not at
feet labor, but benefits 1t. -.
Gas soon as our democratic friends
came in they made haste to repeal the
Mckinley law and that kind of reel
procity disappeared. But the kind they
want is free trade with other countries
that make the same kind of goods and
products that we do. They specially
mention Canadian reciprocity, What
do they raise in Canada? Cattle, hogs,
poultry and such as that; hens lay eggs
ilp there the same as they do here;
wheat not much corn, but generally the
same kind that we grow.
CHOW, some Of these mugwumps down
in Massachusetts want their things pro
tected and our things not protected
That is the kind of reciprocity, they
want-practically free trade. The re-
publican party is not in favor of that
kind of reciprocity.
"Judge Parker, in his letter of &C
ceptance, says he is in favor, of reel
procity and pretends to quote Presa
dent McKinley's last speed, at t.. Buf
falo, to make it appear that !; Mck!inl9ey
was in favor Of his plan. This is the
quotation Judge Parker gives;
& 1--WE must have sensible trade ar
rangements if we wish to extend the
outlets for. our increasing surplus.
Now here is what Mckinley did say
1--WE must make sensible trade arrange
ments which will not interfere will

lets for our surplus.
