Vurpillat.

The above title is what man who is at present holding forth in Water bury calls himself. In regard to his ability or the merit of his so-called cure-all remedy we have no know lege. He pays the Democrat we'll for his advertising He may be fakir, no doubt he is in some respects, but if people with their eyes wide open will walk into his office and deliver their hard earned dollars without re- ceiving an equivalent therefor 1t is their own affair." If the papers that are denouncing him, however, want to do a good work, they might cleanse their own columns of the filth that now is to be found there. When Vur- pillat descends to the level of some of the ads in the columns of our contemporaries, the Democrat will cut him out without ceremony. No previously made contract will shield him.

THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME.

"That's true" said an old reliable customer of ours to his friend the other day. Say, do you know, no matter where I go visiting I'm very seldom pleased with the tea or col fee they serve us at lunch. We al ways get our tea, coffee and butter at PHELAN'S, and it's always so stimulating and appetizing and, what's best of all, the quality is al ways uniform, and every time we sit at the table we're sure the drinks will be the o. K. kind" Well, !" said his friend, 'I also believe

 simply because the tea, coffee ana butter is N. G. They are purchased at some of those huxter, Cheap John stores where they give trading stamps, and they don't give darn what the quality is so long as they get them catch penny stamps. But I'll put an end to that business. I'll % to PHELAN'S myself and get the good tasting kind" We'll, well. if he does come to our store he won't get any trading stamps, but he will get the very best quality of tea and coffee to be had for the price. Of course the ''old lady" will be ,stung and, "by gosh" it will be the price of her. This week we give butter crock with a pound of warranted good 50c tea at

SALOONS ARE RUNNING.
Brewery Receivers Call on Many Leav-
worth ProprietOrs.

Leavenworth. Kan, May 25.--The
Kansas supreme court receivers. per-
sonally visited nearly all the saloons in
Leavenworth Friday afternoon and
asked those in charge of the places
about the ownership of the fixtures.
One Polander said a brewery company
owned the fixtures in his place and the
building, but all the rest said they
owned them personally. The names
with the information given was made
note of by the receivers. This meth
Cd of procedure has mystified the sa-
loon keepers and they are uneasy.
Two of the receivers are still here and
Judge Allen says they will all be back
next week. The saloons are all running
openly and the proprietors were very
courteous in their treatment of the re-
ceivers. Judge Allen says not harsh
word was said to them and many of
the saloon proprietors expressed their
pleasure at meeting the supreme court
officials.
The brewery property receivers at
tached another building of the Schlitz
Brewery company The building is on
North Seventh street, one of the places
located close to the government reser-
walton, where a saloon is. run to. catch

AFTER PULLMAN co.
Proceedings Started for Reduction of
Its Charges.

Washington, May 25.-A definite eff
fort was begun yesterday before the
interstate commission to secure to the
public a reduction of fare charged by
the Pullman company for its sleepers.
This is the first time in the history Of
the commission that proceeding has
been brought against the Pullman
company, and it promises to be an ac-
ton of more than ordinary interest and
Importance.
Three complaints were filed against
the Pullman company and various
northwestern railway lines which are
made codefendants by George S. Loft
tus, a business man of ST. Paul Mr..
LOTUS AYERS that in the course of his
business he is obliged to travel from
ST. Paul to various other points and
to use the accommodations of the
Pullman company. The charges for the
accommodation he declares, are unjust,
unreasonable and excessive and he
asks the commission to reduce them by
one-half.
In his first complaint he AYERS that
the charge made by these companies
for sleeping car berth from ST. Paul
to Superior, Wis, is $780, whether the
berth be an upper or a lower. He says
the lower berths are far more desirable
than the uppers and that the latter
ought to be considerably less In price
but that no distinction between them
is made. The exaction of the same
charge for both. complainant alleges,
is a discrimination. He requests the
commission to fix as maximum
charge for a lower berth between St.
Paul and Superior 81. and for an upper
berth so cents. The second complaint
relates to travel between Chicago and
ST. Paul and the third to travel be-
tween st. Paul and Seattle, Wash.
Between these cities it is alleged the
Pullman fare is $12 for either a lower
or an upper berth. Mr.. Lotus asks
the rate be made So for a lower and
81 for an upper.
At the offices of the commission the
complaints, which are brought under
the most Fecent act of congress on the
subject of rates, are regarded as of
Importance, in that they will open the
whole question Of sleeping car rates
not only on the lines of roads mention
ed specifically in the complaints, but
throughout the country.

GORDON IN BRONZE.
Statue of the Distinguished Confeder-
ate General Unveiled.

Atlanta, Ga, May 25.-The eQues-
TRAN statue of General John B. Cor
don, cast in copper bronze. which was
unveiled today, stands on a broad
pedestal of Georgia granite at the
northwest corner of the state capitol
grounds. Rising % feet from the
base of the pedestal to the top of the
ton overlooking the business part of
the city some distance away The
figure of Gordon is represented seated
on his favorite mare, his head barred,
the left hand holding the reins over
the horses neck. while the right hand
hangs at his side. The pedestal raises
the figure of the horse and rider ABOUT
10 feet above the granite coping
which surrounds it.
The name Gordon in raised letters
is cut on the front of the. pedestal,
while on either side will appear a
bronze has relief, one representing
Gordon at the battle of Spottsylvania.
when before his division he Insisted
on General Lee going to the rear; the
other bears figures typical of the three
phases of Gordon's life, typifying the
soldier the statesman and the patriot
The statue is the work of Sculptor
Scion H Borglum of Norfolk. Conn.
Ten thousand dollars of the cost of
the monument was raised by private
subscription. the remaining $4,000
being an appropriation by the Georgia
legislature.
The dedicatory grafton was deliver
ed by General Clement A. Evans.
Mrs. Francis Gordon Smith of At
lanta and Mrs. Caroline Lewis Gordon
Brown of Vermont, daughters of Gen
eral Gordon, performed the unwilling.
The statue was formally delivered
to the state by Captain Nathanial Har-
ris, and was accepted by Governor
Terrell.
General Evans said 50 Gordon's
promptitude in battle was never more
conspfcuously displayed than in MAX
ing the charge at Gettysburg. He in
sisted that history should not class the
Gettysburg battle as more than
technical Confederate defeat upon the
one lone ground that-Lee. withdrew
across the Potomac. General Evans
told of a conference he had with Cen
eral Gordon after the war when they
found tn cir minds in accord on the
resolve to stand by their people for
veal or woe, that the state must be
honorably restored to its place in the
union and that friendship between
peopIe of the south and north must be
regained and put upon patr1otlc
basis so that sectional hate would be
distinguished. General Evans said he
called the country to witness the
faithfulness with which Gordon car
ried out those high resolves during his
entire life. He had, he said, the heart
and hand of the south and of his Con-
federate comrades because of his I'M
falling fidelity to their cause and he
won the good will of the north by his
broad and true patriotism.
