Better Late Than Never.

1t would, of course, be best for
you to be so careful about what,
when, and how you eat-as never
to suffer from any dyspeptic or
bowel trouble. But if you do slip
up, and begin to suffer the con-
sequences of indiscretions in diet,
it is better to begin then, although
late, to look after your digestion.
At this stage of the game, the best
thing to do is to take DR.. Cald-
wells (laxative) Syrup Pepsin. 1t
is a pure, digestive tonic, and acts
on both stomach, liver, and bowels
curing permanently, and without
bad atter-effects, such dangerous
diseases as constipation, bilious
ness, dyspepsia, headache, dizzi-
ness, etc. Try it. Sold by Ar
cadia Valley Drug Co. at SOC and

Jury. All CHoSe CudTSoS were us
proven, and the court refused the
motion for a new trial as to VIM.
Spaugh. In the case of Mary E..
Spaugh a new trial was granted
because the court concluded it had
erred in the previous trial in ad-
hitting certain evidence. The
court sentenced VIM. Spaugh to
hang February is, 1907. His at
torneys, however, have taken an
appeal to the Supreme Court, and
it will probably be several months
before that body passes on the
case. Mrs. Mary E. Spaugh has
again been released on on bond,

A few weeks ago, at the sug-
gestion of Senator Frank HI. Far
ris of Steelville, a petition, adj
dressed to the railroad commits
sioners, was circulated among our
citizens asking the building Of a
new station house at Ironton.
Senator Farris presented the petit
ton to the railroad commissioners
and assured them the request was
a reasonable one, and that the
depot was badly needed. The
commission took the matter under
consideration and conferred with
the railway officials. Last week
Senator Farris received the follow
ing communication from MI. 7.

attachment for Mr.. Cochrans appearance
his orders from the Commissioners of the
District of Columbia were to ask that at
tachments be issued for all those who for
felt collateral in smoke cases, and that he
intended to carry out those instructions to
the letter.
Judge Scott stated that he did not APP
prove of the plan of not granting the right
to forfeit, but the assistant corporation
counsel wanted the attachment, he ordered
the same to be issued for Mr.. Cochran S
appearance tomorrow morning.
The court then adjourned, but Judge
Scott had not left the bench when Police
man Farquhar of the fourth precinct police
came forward and handed to Mr.. Pugh the
warrant which he had served upon Lindley
E. Sinclair of the Potomac Electric Power
Company. The latter declined to receive
1t, stating that the court had adjourned,
and that the case would have to go over
until tomorrow. He said the warrant
should have been turned over to him i'm
mediately after court was called to order.
Inspector Wolard of the health depart
ment asked Judge Scott IL the case could
not be tried, as Mr.. Sinclair was present in
court and wanted the case disposed Of but
as Mr.. Pugh had left the court room Judge
Scott did not recall him.
Immediately after leaving the court room
Mr.. Pugh called up the police department
over the telephone and told them that he
would like to have orders issued to the
police that in the future all warrants in
their possession be presented to him by
the officer who has served them at the
beginning of the court, so that business
shall not be delayed.
