Philadelphia Policeman Took Penny- packer For . Hobo.
 PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 13.--Gov-
 ernor Samuel w. Pennypacker, chief
 executive of Pennsylvania, was under
 arrest as vagrant for the fraction of
 a minute at Norristown.
 The governor was very tired when he
 landed in Norrlstown after his trip to
 New York, and he was travel stained
 and dusty. He comes from sturdy
 Dutch stock that never did believe
 much in the pressing of trousers and
 such.
 As he had some time to await the
 trolley car for Collegeville, whence he
 was to drive for his Schwensville home,
 he seated himself on the granite steps
 of the Penn Trust Company building. These steps have been used as a
 lounging place by tramps, and the trust
 company had complained to the police. Patrolmen were given strict instruc-
 tions to see that the steps were kept clear.
 W tidy looking man with head down squatted on the steps he crossed the street to do his duty. Come on now" he said, tits the lookup for yours" Governor Pennypacker looked up, startled.
 Warren recognized the governors fa-
 nous beard and literally threw up his hands.
 That's all right, that's all right" said his exccllency. Always do your duty and never make fish of one and fowl
 of the other. I just arrived from New York. It was long. hot trip, and, having a quarter of an hour to wait for my trolley car, found the steps very inviting to tired traveller. Good
 night, sir"
 The trolley came just then and the governor got aboard.

Three Persons Shot Because of Texas
 NesrO's Discourtesy.
 FORT WORTH, Tex, Aug. 13.- Three persons were wounded on a crowded electric car bound to a subur- ban summer resort when a negro re- fused to give his seat to white wo- man. Sheriff Seth Dinwoodie of Red River county, Tex, requested the ne gro to relinquish his seat, and when the negro refused Dinwoodie drew a pistol.
 In striking the negro on the head the weapon was discharged. A bullet struck Miss Beulah Hudglns, passing through the left shoulder. The same bullet wounded R. F. Horni In the left arm. Mrs. Mary Williams was hurt by the pistol flying out of the hands of the sheriff and striking her in the face. Dinwoodie was arrested.

Five Men steal . Cannon.

TROY, N. Y, Aug. 13.-Thieves en. tered the grounds of the United States government arsenal at Watervliet and stole a brass cannon about five feet in length and weighing about 500 pounds. The gun was lifted over a twelve foot wall on the bank of the Erie canal and carried away in boat It required four or five men to Tiff the gun this distance, and 1t is con. sidered peculiar that the men escaped detection by the guards. The com. manding officer at the arsenal, Lieu tenant Colonel MacNutt, ordered that the matter be reported to the police.

 the soldiers fired ball cartridges. Sew eral arrests are understood to have been made.
 Afterward 1t was definitely estab- lished that the shots were fired by the First battalion of the sharpshooters of the guard, who advanced In rushes while making sham attack on an in- trenched position. Fully a hundred shots were fired, but the impatience of the conspirators led them to open fire at such distance as to frustrate their object. Before the maneuvers began all the ball cartridges were taken from the troops and the officers had taken the precaution to make special examination of the cartridge pouches of the soldiers immediately be- fore the inauguration of the move ment of the troops.
 One of the grand dukes aids-de- camp, who, however, was not person. ally present. advanced the theory that possibly the bullets were fired by ac- cident, but he considered that beyond . doubt there was deliberate plot on the part of a number of disloyal guardsmen, who deliberately planned to take the grand dukes life under cover of the general blank cartridge firing. The ah-de-camp added:
 Tt was no more an accident than was the firing of the famous charge of grape from the saluting battery at the Winter palace on the occasion of the ceremony of blessing the waters of the Neva by the emperor a year and a half ago"
 It was learned that the troops were In extended order and engaged in vol ley firing when the accident" occurred. rendering 1t difficult to determine the regiment from which the bullets came. The grand duke, surrounded by officers and aids-de-camp, was off on one side out of the line of fire.
 The affair has created a deep impress sion in military circles and Is the one topic of conversation in the clubs. but the attempt on the grand dukes life is lot generally known here, no word on the subject having been published in the newspapers.
 The Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaie- witch, second cousin of the emperor. was appointed president of the council of national defense in June year ago. the then existing council of war having proved unsatisfactory. The new body was created owing to the fact that the army and navy departments failed to work together to the best advantage. The grand duke. who was born In St. Petersburg in 1856. in addition to be- ing president of the council of national defense. Is aid-de-camp general in- spector general of cavalry and com uander of all the military troops fin the district of st. Petersburg and has been referred to as likely to be appoint ed dictator in the case of the revolution ary movement Tn Russia attaining suffi- cIent strength to warrant the taking of such a step. At one time the grand dute's name was mentioned for the supreme command of the Russian forces in the far east

WHITE PLAINS. N. Y. Aug. 13.-- Five armed men attempted to hold up in western style camp of fifty Italian laborers at Armond. The raiders an- nounced with a flourish of revolvers that they had come to collect $1O from each of the laborers for Black Hand society. The Italians, who were em- ployed in road building, drew their knives and prepared to defend them- selves. whereupon the raiders opened fire and wounded three men seriously. They then decamped without securing a dollar. The wounded were removed to hospitals in nearby villages.

 LONDON. Aug. 13.-The American and English meat scandals have made the people wary nowadays of what Is offered to them at the restaurants. A sensation was caused a few days ago when guests at prominent hotel in the west end discovered that the ''partridges" they had ordered as the piece de resistance had been served to previous customers and ingeniously re- constructed by the cook, who supplied the missing parts with chicken meat.
 Restaurant and hotel keepers in this city are now writing to the papers ask ing that the name of this particular hotel be made public in order that their reputation may not suffer by suspicion.

Buried deep in our American forests
ny years ago, DR.. Pierce found :
iiful, blooming plant the root o
which possesses wonderfully efficacioul
properties as stomach and genera
tonic, ALEC as an Alternative or blood
purifier and liver inyigorator, having ar
especial affinity for all mucous surfaces
upon which II exorts most salutary,
soothing and healing influence.
This sturdy little plant is known to
botanists as Hydrastis Cznadensis, but
has several local English names, being
generally known as Golden Seal. DR..
Pierce found the root Of this common
forest plant to possess medicinal prin-
ciples Of great potency, especially when
combined, in just the right proportions,
with Queens root, Black Cherrybark,
Stone root, Mandrake root and Blood
root, the properties OF each being ex-
tractcd and preserved in chemically
pure glycerine Of proper strength.
This compound DR.. Pierce named
his "Golden Medical Discovery in
honor Of the sturdy little Golden Seal
plant. So little used was the root OF
this plant by tho medical profession at
that time, that it could be purchased
in the open markets for from fifteen
cents to twenty cents pound. The
use OF many tons OF this root every
year in DR.. Pierce's two leading medi-
cines--for it enters into both uGolden
Medical Discovery and also into DR..
Pierce's Farorite Prescription as one Of
their most important ingredients--ha
caused the price of the root to advance
until to-day ii commands upwards of
o dollar and half pound.
DR.. prERcE's FAITH.
DR.. Pierce believes that in our native
forests are to be found an abundance OF
most valuable medicinal plants for the
cure of many distressing and most
fatal maladies. II we would only seek
them out, test them and learn how
and for what diseases to use them.
Furthermore, he believes that the veg
etable kingdom Is the one 10 resort TO
for the most harmless remedial agents.
They act most kindly upon the hui
man system and are eliminated or car
ried out Of the body by the natural
without injury, even in cases
where II is necessary to make protracted
use OF them In order 10 experience per-
maaent cures. DR.. Piercc's medicines
being purely vegetable, are perfectly
harmless. In other words, while they
are potent to cure, being purely vege-
table Ia composition and containing no
alcohol, they leave no bad effects be-
hind. This is not generally true when
mineral medicines and those containing
large percentages OF alcohol are taken
into the system and their use protracted
over considerable periods OF time.
Many years ago, DIR. Pierce discov-
cred that chemically pure glycerine, OF
proper strength, is better solvent and
preservative OF the medicinal principles
residing in orr Indigenous, or native,
medicinal plants than is alcohol: and,
furthermore. that il possesses intrinsic
medicinal properties Of its own, being
demulcent, nutritiye, antiseptic and
most efficient anti-ferment.
THEY STAND ALONE.

stomach tonic, liver inyigorator, heart
