First Death reported.

The first death here as d result of the
floods occurred to-day. Thomas Finn.
foreman in a Pennsylvania Railroad
gravel pit. at a suburb. was killed by a
landslide. Finn had Just left the hos
pital after recovering from injuries re-
ceived in a similar way during the Janu-
airy flood.
The COvington and Newport. Ky, con-
diNons Will not be as bad as during the
January flood, even should the water
equal that record. for the reason that a
great many persons who were forced tn
move during the former freshet profited
by the experience. and Gid not move back.
Otherwise conditions are about the same
as during the previous visitation of the
waters.

Ohio rivers returned to their channels.
the extent of the damage laid bare is
astounding. Property and business inter-

are obtainable. but estimates. according
to area included vary from ten to twenty
million dollars, and days and weeks must
elapse before all conditions are fully re-
stored.
Almost as remarkable as the big food
itself is the rapid recovery Pittsburg is
making from the disaster All day and
night the work of repairing the damage
went on with unabating vigor. BY Mon
day morning Pittsburg will be itself. The
weather was perfect for cleaning up
work
Crippled telephone. electric light. and
elevator service in many buildings. and
a shortage Of gas, are results Of the
flood which have not been entirely reme-
died
Few if any Of the army Of 100000
workmen who were thrown into idle
ness by the big food will be able TO re-
sumo before Monday. The mills are all
covered with mud. Costly machinery
IS damaged, and in many places may
have TO be replaced, and it is doubtful

normal aspect for weeks Work on

material is damaged, and the embar-
rassment TO manufacturers will be
such as has never been caused here
before by flood or any other conditions.
Experts Restoring Order.

DIED SUDDENLY
OF HEART DISEASE

How frequently does head line SINH
lar to the above greet US in the news
papers. The rush, push and strenuous
ness of the American people has strong
tendency to lead up to valvular and other
affections of the heart, attended by ir-
regular action, palpitation, dizziness.
smOthered sensations and other distress
ing symptoms.
Three of the prominent ingredients of
which DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is made are recommended by some
of the leading writers on MGtGrjG Medjc6
for the cure of just such cases. Golden
Seal root, for instance, Is said by the
UNITED STATES DISPENsATORY, a stand

creased power to the hearts action
Numerous other leading authorities rep
re ,ent Golden Seal as an unsurpassed
tonic for the muscular system i'll general,
and as the heart is almost wholly CON-
posed of muscular tissue, is naturally
follows that it must be greatly strength
sned by this superb, general tonic. But
probably the most important ingredient
of UGolden Medical Discovery" so far
as its marvellous cures of valvular and
other affections of the heart are con-
ccrned. is Stone root, or COlJinSG1li0 Cam,
Prof. VIM. Paine, author of Paine's

Heretofore physicians knew OF no remedy
for the removal of SO distressing and so dan
gerous a malady. With them it was all
guess work, and it fearfully warned the
afflicted that death was near at hand. Col
hnsonin unQUestiOnably affords relief in
such cases. and in most instances effects q

stone root is also recommended by Drs.
Hale and Ellingwood, of Chicago, for

Desha Breckinridge Threatene
With Jail Sentence.

Desha Breckenridge, editor of the
Lexington Herald, was before the
Fayette County Grand Jury yesterday,
and was asked the following question,
which was in writing:
"Mr. Desha Breckenridge, will you
please tell the grand jury who is the
author of the article published in The
Kentucky Evening Gazette entitled,
Unfortunate Criticism. J. T. Den
ton, foreman of the Grand jury"
Mr.. Breckenridge declined to answer
this question and when asked his rea-
son stated that it was because he was
the President of the Lexington Herald
Publishing Company, which publishes
The Kentucky Evening azette, and he
did not think it proper for him to dis
close what information ne had regard
ing The Gazette and that he would not
do so.
The Grand Jury forthwith marched
in before Judge Watts Parker, taking
the question and Mr.. Breckenridge
with them. The Judge read the ques-
ton to Mr.. Breckenridge and he still
refused to answer, and was informed
by the Court that he must answer or
go to jail. The Court, however, gave
him until Saturday morning to consult
his lawyer.
The article referred to was a criti-
cism of the Grand Jury and read like
a very just one.N. 1t has come to nice
state of affairs that grand jury can't
be criticised. we didn't know before
that they were invaluable. They are
getting bigger than the U. S. Supreme
Court, for we newspaper men criticise
the big court frequently and have
never had 9 jail sentence up to this
time.
If you so TO Jail old boy, let us know
for we want to come and pay our re-
spects while You are behind the bars.
You never was far wrong in your life
and we believe you are right now,
however, we are for you little
stronger if you should happen to be
wrong this time.

A kentucky Girl in "Under
Southern Skies"

The Courier-Journa had the follow
ing to say of Miss Virginia Pearson, a
Louisville girl, who is starring III I'm
der Southern Skies :"
Miss Virginia Pearson, who is ap-
pearing in Under Southern Skies" at
the Masonic this week is a popular
Louisville girl and her hosts of friends
are proud of her success since she
adopted the stage career two years ago.
Favorable accounts have been received
of the young woman's efforts from
cities where she has played, but Louis
vile people had to be shown" and
Miss Pearson's efforts at the opening
performance last night left no doubt in
the minds of her Well-WisherS Of her
ultimate success.
From chorus girl to star in the space
of few months would naturally tend
to increase the egotism in person S
makeup, but such is not true of Miss
Pearson. She is the same beautiful
and sweet dispositioned girl who left
her friends in Louisville to take long
chance IN the whirl Of the theatrical
world. When seen during moment of
leisure last night after her audience
had warmed up to her in the second
act Miss Pearson was VlSlDIy aHected.
Tenderly placing bouquet after bouquet
from admiring friends in her dressing
room she submitted to short inter-
view.
"You don't know with what heavy
heart / faced that audience tonight, T"
she said. when | stepped to the foot
lights and saw row after row of famll-
lar faces began to tremble and had
my first attack of stage fright. / knew

together and tried to do my best. /
have succeeded beyond my expectations
and / want to say to you that the round
after round of applause from my
friends makes this the happiest
moment of my life. They did not think
l could do it and l longed for the time
to show them what was IN me. | am
very happy over the result"

MOSQUES ARE CLOSED.
Tourists Visiting Turkey Not Admit

Constantinople, Dec, 7-American tourists visiting Turkey will hence forth be deprived of the most inter esting feature of their sightseeing the interior of the mosques, with their rich decoration and the strange ritual or the Mahometan faith.
 For some vague reason the Sultan has just issued an trade excluding all "unbelievers" from the mosques except members of the diplomatic or consular body and delegates of foreign govern ments. temporary interdiction to this effect was forced during the visit to Constaptinople of an Arab deputa' ton from the Yemen. It was the Turkish governments policy to placate these personages, who are very strict Mahometans, and would be shocked to see crowds of unbelievers admitted to the holy places.
 After the Arabs had left the city it was expected that the mosques would be reopened to Frankish tourists, but the Sutan's Trade has now made the prohibition permanent. Only American tourists who have pull" with their Minister or Consul and are able to ex- pend abundant "backsheesh" will now be able to see the other holy places of Constantinoph
