POLITICAL GOSSIP HEARD
 AT THE ALABAMA CAPITOL
BY HERvEY w. LAIRD.

Montgomery, February 17.-(Special)- From way up in the hills of Calhoun is to come a man who will be spoken of for speaker of the next house of repre- sentatives If there is not q failure of good signs all along the line. That man is Joseph J. Arnold of Jacksonville, who has represented his county in the legis- lature two terms, the last one of which he was chairman of the committee on education. He came to the lower house the first time with Hon. H. c. Gunnells, who is now in the race for state superin- tendent of education, and together they have worked since in matters of educa- tion in the state. MT. Arnold comes from an old family in his county, and has a fine following. His wife, who was Miss Gertrude Arberry of Jacksonville, was very popular socially here during the first term of her husband.
 Another new prospect for the speaker ship is Capt. Tyler Goodwin of Mont gomery, who hopes to be returned to the lower house from his own terri tory at the August primary. He is say ing little about the speakership, pre- ferrng to let that lie over to the after election time, but it is understood that he will be in the contest just the same. With William J. Sanford of Troy, who will stand for the same place, has rumor, there will be a three-cornered race if others do not come. But others are com ing, and in droves. It Is anticipated now that there will be at least half dozen trying for the place of presiding officer of the house.
 The newest talk is that Bibb Graves of Montgomery is to make the race for secretary of state. He was asked about 1t in the presence of A. c. Sexton, chief clerk in the office now, and a candidate for the secretaryship, and said: Yes, I have heard that. You had better be

NO MAN IS STRONGER THAN
 HIS STOMACH.

Let the gre. est athlete have dyspepsia and his muscles would soon fail. Physi- cal strength Is derived from food. If a man has insufficient food he loses strength If he has no food he dies Food is con verted into nutrition through the stom- ach and bowels. It depends on the strength of the stomach to what extent food eaten Is digested and asslmilated. People can die of starvation who have abundant food to eat, when the stomach and it's associate organs of digestion and nutrition do not perform their duty. Thus the stomach is really the vital or gan of the body. If the stomach is svweak" the body will be weak also, because 1t Is upon the stomach the body relies for its strength. And as the body, considered as whole, is made up of it's several mem- bers and organs, so the weakness of the body as a consequence of weak" stom- ach will be distributed among the or gans which compose the body. If the body Is weak because 1t Is ill-nourished that physical weakness will be found in all the organs-heart, liver, kidneys, etc. The liver will be torpid and inactive, giving rise to biliousness, loss Of appetite, weak nerves, feeble or irregular action of heart, palpitation. dizziness, headache, backache and kindred disturbances and weaknesses.
 Mir Louis Pare, of Quebec, writes rFor years after my health began to fail. my head grew dizzy. eyes pained me. and my stomach was sore all the time. while everything l would eat would seem to lie heavy like lead on my stomach The doctors claimed that 1t was sympathetic trouble due to dyspepsia. and prescribed for me and although l took their powders regularly yet felt no better. My wife advised me to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery-and stop taking the doc tors medicine. She bought me a bottle and we soon found that began to improve. so 1 kept up the treatment l took on flesh. my stomach became normal the digestive organs worked perfectly and 1 soon began to look like different person. can never cease to De grateful for what your medicine has done for me and certsinly give 1t highest praise"

DROPS PISTOL AND
 IS SHOT IN CHEST
BEN WILLIAMS IS STILL LIVING, ALTHOUGH WOUND RECEIVED IS DANGERoUS-DAL MEN OUT FOR LEGISLATURE.

Selma, February 7.-Special-About dusk yesterday afternoon at Miles Har- dy's store, about fourteen miles across the river Ben Williams, while standing In his wagon arranging some boxes that had been loaded, was shot through the body with a pistol ball. He had the pistol in his inside coat pocket, and was lean ing over in stooping position, when the weapon fell out and the hammer struck on a box. The ball entered full in the chest, and was taken out under the skin near the shoulder blade. Considering the cali bre of the pistol and the position of the wound the wonder is that death was not instantaneous, but at noon today he was still alive. The clothing of the unfortun- ate man was sect on fire from the powder from the pistol, but was extinguished by those who went to his assistance

DAVIDSON FOR Low FARE.
Governor Says Two cents Mile Is
Proper Rate.


Harrisburg, Pa, Sept. 1S.--The
state board of trade OF Pennsylvania
has set afoot n movement to obtain
uniform legislation throughout the
United States for n 2-cent railroad
fare With this object in view the
board has communicated with the
governors Of all the states. Secretary
Williams of the board has made pub.
lie the replies. With only a few eI.
ceptions, the governors personally are
favorable to a 2-cent rate
In several instances they tell Of
movements in their states to obtain
the enactment of such n law at the
next session Of their legislatures.
Some western governors say that be-
cause Of the sparsely settled condition
of their states the time Is not yet
ripe for n radical reduction. Secre-
tary Munson, replying for Governor
Davidson, says:
"The governor is in full accord with
the movement with which you are
allied. He believes that the time has
passed when first class railroads
should be exempt, in Wisconsin, at
least, from the legal establishment Of
a cents a mile passenger rate"

WILL LAY DOWN
LAW To MOROCCO

London, Sept, 1S.-A dispatch from
Tangier to the Times says: There
is tendency to underestimate the
importance of the American mission TO
Fee. Minister Gummere will not only
present his credentials but also will
lay before the sultan his governments
views of the existing state of anarchy
in Morocco and demand payment OF
American claims and punishment for
offenSes against American subjects.
The Maghhen also will doubtless be
reminded Of the sultan's promise to
speedily punish Rasuli for seizure and
detention of Perdicaris."
The dispatch says the position Of
America renders it's action in these
matters easier than in the case OF
European powers, the hands OF whose
representatives are tied by the politi-
cal situation in Europe. Americas
relations with Morocco outside the
Algecirs protocol are clearly defined
by treaty and the sultan's intrigues
with other powers will certainly not
be accepted as an excuse for the IN.
fringement Of these treaty rights.
Only by firm action can the sultan
and Maghhen be made to realize their
real position and responsibility. IT."
the dispatch adds, "the American min.
lister succeeds in bringing about this
he will deserve the thanks and con.
gratulations of all who at present are
suffering from the incapacity ana ar
rogance of the existing regime at Fez."
