A JUDGES WIFE eA!H SzdK X as5 zE5 SIDE
Quickly Cured by a Short
Course of Pe-ru-na.

MARS. MINNIE E. McALLISTER, wife
:" of Judge McAllister, writes from
1917 West 33rd street, Minneapolis,
Mimi, as follows:
81 suffered for years with a pain in the
small of my back and right side. It inter-
fered often with my domestic and social
duties and never supposed that ! would
be cured, as the doctors medicine did not
seem IS help me any.
Fortunately a member of our Order
advised me to try Peruna and gave it
such high praise that decided to try
it. Although I started in with little
faith, I felt so much better in week
that felt encouraged.
"I took it faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that I am entirely cured.
"Words fail to express my gratitude.
Perfect health once mere is the beet thing
could wish for, ard thanks to Pe-una,
enjoy that now"
Pain in the back, or on the right
side.
| How often physician hears this
complaint!
| Over and over we hear women say;
Il have pain In the small OF my back.
have pain in my right side, just be-
low the ribs"
These symptoms indicate pelvic or
abdominal catarrh.
They indicate that the bowels are not
acting properly-that the liver is out
of order = that the pelvic organs are
congested.
Pelvic catarrh-that is the name for
it.
Peruna cures pelvic catarrh, W. en- ali Of
these symptoms disappear.
The catarrh may be all in the ab-
dominal organs, when it would be prop
erly called abdominal catarrh.
At any rate, it is one of those eases
of internal catarrh which can be reached
only by a course of treatment with
Peruna.
We have on file thousands of testi-
monials similar to the above. It is
impossible here to give our readers
), more than one or two specimens of the
number of grateful and CONNIE ldatory
letters DR.. Hartman is constantly re-
ceiving in behalf of his famous catarrh
remedy, Peruna.

of the bootblack chair in q hotel. He
makes between $50 and $40 a week" /"

gate and found the son employed in
one of the big hotels of the city, where
he has been for six years. 4

 The itinerary of the President on his Southern trip will be the same as to places and dates as heretofore given in this correspondence, except after leav- ing Jacksonville, Fla. going there from Georgia points.
 On Monday, October 2Srd, the party will arrive at Montgomery. and pro- ceed to Mobile, arriving there about D. m. Leaving Mobile at p. m, to rturn to Montgomery. Tuesday, octo- Der z4th, arrive at Montgomery on return trip and then proceed to Tuske- gee to visit the Booker Washington In- stitute, returning to Montgomery the same day, remaining two hours, and going over the Louisville and Nash vile to Birmingham. Wednesday Oc- tober 18th. arrive in Memphis. coming over the Frisco System from Birming- ham and go to Little Rock. Ark. re- turning the same day to Memphis. where the party will separate. the President going to New Orleans with Secretary Loeb over the Illinois Gen. tral and the other members of the par ty leaving Memphis over the Southern Railway and Norfolk and Western Railway for Chattanooga. Knoxville. Bristol, Lynchburg and Washington. Thursday, October 26th the President and Secretary Loeb after a nights ride from Memphis down through the State of Mississippi, will arrive at New Or leans in the morning, spend about six hours in New Orleans and then get aboard aval vessel which will take them to Old Point Comfort. the Presi- dent arriving in Washington about oc- tober 30th.
 Mrs. Roosevelt at first strongly ob- jected to the President extending his trip to New Orleans. but he convinced her that 1t was in the line of duty: that the people down there seem ear nestly desirous that he should make the visit. They would not ask him to come if they were not assured 1t would be without serious risk.
 He has been advised that there will be no danger in his remaining in New Orleans only during the day time. The entire expense of the trip will be paid by the President out of his own pock- ct He has arranged to defray the ex- penses of the entire journey at the reg ular tarin rates and will accept no re- duction from those rates.
 The railroads will furnish three cars as far as Little Rock and Memphis and two cars will be used in bringing the rest of the Presidents party from Memphis to Washington. The rail roads would haze been glad to furnish the transportation and other facilities for the journey free of charge, but the President, who is intent upon securing railroad rate legislation did not think it the proper move that he should ac- cept free transportation. The expense of the trip will be between $5.000 and &6.000 Watkins.

SHAW Is CORRECTED.

Jacksonville Demoerntic Chairnnn Ex-
 plains Incident Referred To.
 Jacksonville, Fla, Ccv. 3.--In refer ence to Secretary Shaw's statement made in Richmond las. night that be- fore the board of trade of Jacksonville "a man said to be the leading law yer of the State, Democrat. declared that practically all the men present were protectionists," and that to this there was no voice of dissent. Duncan U. Fletcher. chairman of the Demo- cratic executive committee says:
 Secretary Shaw's statement at Richmond. as given, may mislead. The occasion of his address and after sew eral short speeches before the board of trade at Jacksonville did not call for debate of political questions of . partisan character. The speaker he alludes to speaks for himself and did not speak or pretend to speak for the State. It was social meeting and if a broad assertion that the Democrats present were all protectionists had been made, which I am sure is a mis- take, no one would have felt 1t im- portant or opportune to question 1t at fhat time. am surprised that the secretary seems impressed that partf- san politics were appropriate subjects for discussion at meeting held to extend him courtesies and listen to his interesting and non-partisan ad- dress as the head of a most important department of the general government and is such allusions crept Into the re- marks of others, that there was need for challenge. then and there, other wise silence meant acqufescence."

CHINESE EXCLUSION
TOPIC DISCUSSED AT MEETING OF
 GARNET.
Secretary Taft Gave Benefst of Knowi- edge Cleaned on Oriental Tour and Radical Changes Will
 Be Made.

Washington, Oct 3.--The most inter- esting subjects discussed at the Cabi- net meeting were, first, the Chinese boycott against American goods. and. second, the consideration of complaints made by the Chinese against the meth cd of executing the existing Chinese exclusion laws. The important fact developed was that the Presidents ef- fort last summer to aliay the indigna- ton of the Chinese by a circular to the American ministers to China and Japan and consular officers therein had failed in & measure and required con- siderable amendment to secure the ob- ject sought.
 Minister Rockhill himself reported that it had not been found possible to carry out the instructions contained in the circular without doing injustice to worthy Chinese and imposing bur dens too heavy to be borne upon the American consuls.
 Secretary Taft took prominent part in the discussion of this matter. when 1t was preached by Secretary Root, and presented some of the results of his observations on his recent trip. It de- veloped that the requirement that American consuis identify the Chinese seeking certificates admitting them to American ports imposed task upon these officials beyond their ability. The Chinese applicant frequently came from some place far distant from the Ameri- can consulate, and the consul was con sequently obliged to refuse to identify as proper persons to be admitted to the United States many worthy Chi nese. which. of course, led to bitter feeling.
 When a Chinese merchant who desir- ed to send his son as a shop assistant to his branch store in the United States, with a view to ultimately ad- hitting the son to partnership, found that the boy was barred on the charge that he was a coolie. These were only a few of the complaints made against the administration of the existing ex- clusion law. The trend of the opinion in the Cabinet meeting was that these complaints, after all. were directed rather against the construction placed upon the law than against the act it. self. and especially against the defini- ton given in California to the term coolie, so it was practically decided that some important changes in the present regulations must be made To- days session was the first regular meeting of the Cabinet held for some months, and 1t was one of the longest held during the administration of Pres ident Roosevelt. It was attended by all the members of the Cabinet except Secretary Shaw, who Is absent from the city. and Secretary Metcalf who is i'll

MISSION OF GEN. GOMEZ
DECLARES VISIT TO AMERICA
 WITHOUT SIGNIFICANCE.
Leader of Cuban Liberal Party Reaches New York-Deaies He Seeks Political Intervention by
 United States.

New York, Oct 3.-Gen. Jose Miguel Gomez, the Governor of Santa Clara Province, Cuba who recently resigned as the Liberal candidate for the presi- dency of Cuba, in opposition to Presi- dent Palma, arrived here today on the steamer Monterey. He will remain in this country about two weeks for rest.
 Asked If he would visit Washington or call on President Roosevelt, General Gomez said:
 T do not know if I will visit Wash ington, but do not expect to visit President Roosevelt"
 When informed of the report that he came on a mission to ask American in- tervention in Cuban politics, he replied with an emphatic No" General Co., mex said he did not know whether the Liberal party would place candidate in the field in December to contest the election with President Palma, the candidate of the moderate party. The National Convention of the party which was held on Sunday last, refused to ac- cept his resignation, but he as yet had not been so informed, as he sailed be- fore the convention met. Therefore. he was not prepared to say what would be his future course.
 General Gomez is accompanied only by O. Ferrera, a lawyer of Havana. It was learned aboard the ship that both Cubans and Americans with business interests in Cuba entertained some anxiety over the outcome of the politi- cal dissensions. MT. Ferrera, while almost as reticent as Mir. Gomez. said that all the jalls in Santa Clara Prov ince were filled with political prison CTS. Mr. Ferrera is a political leader on the island, and 1t was said aboard the Monterey is one of Cuba's consti- tutional authorities and an orator of the Liberal party. He, however, pro- fessed lack of knowledge of the English language when questioned on politics.
 On the other hand, the merchants aboard the ship were ready to talk of the situation. One of the largest cigar manufacturers in this city and Cuba said that 1t was the well-founded be- lief O fall passengers after the gossip on the trip and even before the steamer sailed from Havana. that General Co., meg was on a secret mission and that he would call upon President Roose- welt before he returned to Cuba.
