HIGH SOCIETY RAIDED.

One day last week the new Chief CT
Police in Philadelphia issued orders
for his men to raid the tenderloin
district and gather in every thing in
sight, male and female. The penalty
OF giving out any advanced tips of the
raid was loss OF place. No tips Wee
given out and the net was dragged
over about twenty square miles. me
miniens of the law raided principally
the gambling and fashionable assigna-
ton houses and caught over tWo
thousand people, among whom were
numbered some of the most notable
citizens of the staid old Quaker City.
Women who stood high in fashion
able society were caught in the swirl
and the amount of cash bail money
amounted to over 100000.
1t required our-hundred police to
attend to he raiding work and the re-
suit astonished society.
The men took the situation philo-
sophically, but women who saw social
ruin staring them in the face, fought
the police like wild animals. Many
of them stripped of jewels of fabu-
lous value and offered them to the
police as brides.
One woman leaped from a four
story window to escape arrest and
was caught by the heels and dragged
back in time to save her life. She
begged to be killed rather to face ex-
posture in the police dock next morn
ing
Philadelphia has lately ranked as
the roottenest city politically, in the
Union and the raid has uncovered its
social and moral iniquities. 1t looks
as if the respectable Quaker elemen,
in that locality was deteriorating.

SPRING CATARRH.
Changeable Weather Causes Dis.
ease. Breathe Hyomei and
Cure Cdtarrh.

The changeable weather Of spring,
with its warm days and cold nights. is
responsible for great increase in the
number of cases of catarrh. 1t is now
that Hyomei, the only guaranteed treat
ment for catarrh that cures without
stomach dosing, should be used in every
home.
Hyomei is a scientific method by
which pure air impregnated with Ma
lures own remedies for the cure Of
catarrh, can be inhaled by every suffer-
er in his or her home. Breathed through
the neat pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit. it's healing, volatile, anti
septic fragrance reaches the lungs and
air passages as no stomach dosing pos
sibly can do. 1t gives immediate relief
and makes lasting cures.
Proof that the Hyomei treatment will
do all that is claimed for it is found in
the guarantee under which L. P. Van
Werden sells it, an agreement to pay
back the price, if the purchaser can say
that Hyomei has not given satisfaction

Creditors to Get Ten Per
Cent Dividend.

"The creditors of the Day Cunning
bankrupt estate will have in their
pockets within ten days from now 10
per cent dividend" was the statement
made yesterday by John E. Scott,
trustee of the estate, says the Mt. Ayr
News. Mr.. Scott went on, to say: 'We
are now at work making out the checks
and receipts for the various amounts,
which is no light labor, as there are
over 600 checks in all to be made out,
some of them for very small amounts.
The checks must be sent by me to Ref
cree Ethridge to be countersigned.
"This is the first dividend that has
been declared since the bank failed in
January, 1904. The dividend cleans up
all the cash in my hands as trustee,
about $4,000 in all. Much more than
that amount has been collected, as
everyone knows, but a large sum was
used in paying off the mortgages on the
land so as to stop interest charges.
While the original liabilities as schedul-
ed We're about S465.000, settlements
have reduced that amount to 100000,
which is the basis we go on in figuring
the per cent of dividend.
aside from the remaining sums to be
collected on notes and accounts. the
estate still has 400 acres of land free
from incumbrance, and the Liggett
building on the south side of the square
| (mortgaged for S3000) and a few town
lots. Judge Mcpherson has urged that
the land be sold, and good many
creditors have also urged speedy action
in that regard, but Referee Ethridge
has consistently held, and agree with
him, that to have forced the land to sale
before this time would have been to re-
quire us to take sacrifice prices for it.
There has not been day since the fail
ure when the local land market was in
good condition to take so much land at
any reasonable figure. However, if we
get good crop this year real estate
ought to be in better demand by fall,
and in my opinion an attempt ought to
be made and will be made to clean up
the whole matter this fall. 1t is prob
able that all the bankruptcy proceed
ings will be history by the second ami
versary of the failure, Jan. 49, 1906
The arrangements for the dividend
we're made last week, during the visit
of Referee Ethridge to Mt. Ayr.
Although Mr.. Scott has never been
quoted as to the probable amount of the
total dividends that would be declared
by the Cunning estate, it has been
underatood that he expected it to pay
out about % per cent. If so, then from
the present indications it would appear
that his judgment of the values involv
ed will be indicated.

A discriminating contemporary sug-
gests that when you get catalogue
from big mail order house just look it
over and see what it will pay you for
your farm products. Also investigate
and see what it's terms or credit are in
case you don't have the ready cash; also
how much it will subscribe towards
public improvements in your town. Go
to the assessors book and see what
part of the taxes it pays in your city.
Just write and see what it will give to
assist the poor of your community.
After you have done this and received
its reply, go to your home merchant,
get his prices, deduct the cost of trans
portation on the goods you are wanting
to buy Of the mail order house, and see
if it is not more to your advantage to
trade at home. That the result Of this
little investigation will awaken a new
loyalty to local institutions is fact
which needs no affirmation.

Buxton is the largest town in the
county. This may CRATE a little on
true. The completed census of Bluff
Creek township shows Buxton to have
1882 and the entire township 1882 in
habitants. Abba will have barely 1000,
which gives Buxton lead of 400. How
ever, there is not much danger of that
prosperous city becomingsa candidate
for the county seat as the 100000

pleted. But it does put Buxton first in

A man named Pucket was before
Mayor Brown Saturday morning charg
ed with drunkenness and disorderly
conduct. He plead guilty to the charge
and was fined $40 and costs. He asked
for time to pay the fine and was told if
he would give bond the request would
be granted. In company with Cousta-
BILE Tip Stephens he went out to seek
George Rocks at whose home he was
staying. Rocks was sighted in buggy,
hailed, stopped and the constable and
his charge approached. On their reach
ing the vehicle, Constable Stephens
says Rocks moved over in the seat to
the opposite side, his prisoner suddenly
jumped in, Rocks dashed their team and
away they went, leaving constable
Stephens standing all alone in the street.
In the course of time the officer recover
ed from his astonishment and reported
back to the mayor all ready for the
next prisoner. Sunday morning, Rocks
and Pucket came in and the latter said
he had thought better of the matter
and wanted to settle. Mayor Brown
