Washington, March 29.-The house
, Wednesday, in order that the legis-
lative, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill might be considered
without being subjected to limitless
points of order, passed a rule pro-
hibiting that method Of fighting the
bill. Notwithstanding that this ap-
pears to have been the first special
rule ever reported from the commit
tee on rules directly affecting an ap-
preparation bill, Its necessity was re-
garded as paramount to precedent.
1t was adopted after an Illuminating
debate Of an hour by vote of 1863
to 100, 20 republicans voting with the
minority.

Trust to Nature.

Al great many Americans, both men
and women, are thin, pale and puny, with
moor circulation, because they have ILL
treated their stomachs by hasty eating
or too much eating, by consuming Alc0-
holic beverages, or by too close c0nhne-
ment to home, office or factory, and In
consequence the stomach must be treated
IN q natural way before they can rectiiy
their earlier mistakes. The muscles In
many such people, In fact in every weary,
thin and thin bleoded person, 40 their
work with great difficulty. AS o result
fatigue comes early, q extreme and lssi =
ahead Of the supply. TO insure perfect
health evety tissue, bone, nerve and
muscle should take from the blood GER
tain materials and return to II certain
Others. II Is necessary TO prepare the
stomach for the work Of taking up from
the food what ID necessary TO make good,
rich, red blood. We must 30 TO Nature
for the remedy. There were certain
roots known TO the Indians Of this
country before the advent Of the whites
which later came TO the knowledge. Of

rapidly in professional favor for the cure
Of obstinate stomach and liver troubles.

These are: Golden Seal root Queens

The medicinal principles residing IN these
native roots when extracted with glyc-
crime as solvent make the most reliable
and efficient stomach tonic and liver In

Golden Medical Discovery. Where there
q bankrupt vitality - such as nervous

MINNEAPOLIS TRAGEDY.
Bodies Of SIN BuIgarians Found in

Minneapolis, March 20.-The hacked
and mutilated bodies Of six Bulgar1ans.
evidently wori1men. were found lying
in pools Of coajulated blood in little
tumble-down house, No. 246 Tenth ev-
enue, South, wednesday morning. Four
Of the bodies were found in Q sleeping
room on the second floor cut and
slashed In a shocking manner, while
in the cellar were two others with
their threats cut from ear TO ear. Near
the bodies were found five large bowie
knives with razor-edged blades nearly
eight inches long and blood-stained
Ratchet.
The two bodies In the basement, &C.
cordins to Coroner Kistler. had been
dead nearly two days. The blood sur
rounding the bodies In the upper rooms
was more fresh than that around those
in the cellar. Also, the wounds on
the four appeared to have been made
later. The men in the basement had
been killed by having their throats
cut and the police are inclined to be-
lieve that they were murdered for their
money and that a free for all fight
followed over division Of the spoils.
This is indicated by the wounds on
the bodies fund in the upper room.

tro, anticipating successful revolu-
ton against him sooner or later, has
converted some of his alleged 100000,
100 fortune into cash and has sent 1t
10 America and France.
The expedition is to set out shortly
