EVEN IF DISCOURAGED
TRY DR.. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS
FOR YOUR RHEUMATISM.
Tho Pills Have Cured the Disease In
Almost Every Form and Even In
Advanced STAGES

Rheumatism is painful infiamma-
ton of the muscles or of the coverings
of the joints and is sometimes accom-
panied by swelling. The pain is sharp
aud shooting and does not confine itself
to any one part of the body, but after
settling i'll one joint or muscle for q
time, leaves it and passes on to another.
The most dangerous tendency OF NE
disease is to attack the heart. Extsrl..d
applications may give relief from pain
for time but the disease cannot be
cured until the blood is purified. DIR.
Williams Pink Pills are the best medi-
cine for this purpose as their action is
directly on the blood, making iG rich,

pure there can be no rheumatism.

RELEASED ON BAIL.
Action in Case of Jacob Weiss, Ar
rested on SUSPICION,

Jacob Weiss implicated in the assault
on John w. Mullen at Dead Mans Hol-
low Alexandria county, Va, September
20, will be given a preliminary hearing
next Saturday morning at o'clock. The
hearing will be at the courthouse, Fort
Myer Heights, before Justice Thompson.
Weiss was released yesterday morning
on bail in the sum of $1,000. His son,
Emile Weiss, is responsible for $500 of the
amount and the father for the other $500
Amelia Weiss Is still a prisoner at
the county Jail and will not be liberated
until the conclusion of the preliminary
hearing. Commonwealth Attorney Mackey
is actively at work on the case. Yester-
day he went to Georgetown University
Hospital and secured statement from
Mullen.
1t is said that Mullen told Common
wealth Attorney Mackey that Miss Weiss
had pistol in her possession the evening
of the assault, and that prior to entering
the woods she handed him the weapon.
Mullen after examining the pistol found
it to be worthless and placed it in his
pocket. Following the assault he thought
of the pistol, and upon seeing a colored
man in the woods pulled it from his pocket
and offered 1t to the man. The latter,
however on seeing that Mullen had been
shot, refused to take the gun. Later,
Mullen says, he threw the weapon into the
woods.

Kite Sent Up Over $4,000 Feet at
Mount Weather Station.

The highest altitude ever reached by
kite in this country, according to Prof.
Henry of the weather bureau, was that
recorded Thursday al the Mount Weather
station in Virginia, when an altitude OF
slightly over twenty-three thousand feet
was attained. At that height tempera-
ture of five degrees below zero Fahrenheit
was recorded 1t is Prof. Henrys BELIEF
that the kite will yet attain a higher
flight
For the past few days the Mount
Weather bureau has been conducting ex-
periments in kite flying with view to de-
termining the weather conditions at vari-
Gus attitudes For instance. temperature
OIL forty degrees was recorded at the top
of the mountains, at a height of one thou
sand feet while at height of three thou
sand feet the temperature was eight de-
grees warmer.
Prof. Henry says that experiments in
kite flying have been carried on in other
countries where altitude of 23,0O0 feet
was recorded but numerous experiments
in the New England states have failed to
attain such height.
The temperature Saturday afternoon
a bout mile in the free air above the sta
ton was four degrees above freezing,

ton of the entire world. The object in
coming together Of interests whose great
products are valued at three billion dol
lars annually Is primarily economy, and
to this end this worlds cotton congress
was devised for conference of very de-
partment of this vast industry. Another
object is the organization of a permanent
congress which shall meet annually, and
attached to 1t departments for the dis
semination Of information at all times.
The leading men of the International
Cotton Spinne RS Association of Europe,
the Association of Cotton Manufacturers
OF the United States, the American Manu-
facturers' Association, the Farmer RS Edu-
cational and Cooperative Union and the
Southern Cotton Association are here,
and collectively their organizations con-
stitute the international conference which
begins today and continues three days.
Many Of these men are avowedly OPP
posed to the speculative element which
has attached itself to the cotton growing
industry, and If the forthcoming con-
gress can do 1t, they say, it will devise
means to eliminate them.
Calls Speculation a Curse.
c. w NIAGARA of Manchester, England,
head of the great Bannerman mills and
president of the International Cotton
Spinners' Association of Europe. calls the
speculative end of the business a curse
and hopes to see 1t eliminated.
Speaking of the work of the congress
and it's aims, Mr.. NIAGARA admitted, with
qualification, that European mills have
sold their product at an average of nine
months ahead, on the basis of raw cotton
at 10 cents per pound, while the present
market is under IL cents This, he ad
mitted, is a large profit. but he said is
not excessive, when it is considered the re
are years when mills are operated at a
loss.

In this country, over 500, 100000, he said,
spectators and bucket shops got 500, O0O.-
600 in charges and commissions.
The business of the conference will be-
gin this afternoon, with meetings of
the various committees on sectional sub
jects. Reports Of committees and dis
cussions begin tomorrow morning.
