 unnecessarily. They can be cured
 Proper attention to the diet and the
 right remedy to tone up the weak
 ened organs arc all that Is required.
 The symptoms of stomach trouble vary. Some victims have | raven ous appetite. some loathe the sight of food. Often there is Il feeling as of weight on the chest. full feeling in the throat. Sometimes the gas presses on the heart and leads the sufferer to think he has heart disease. Sick head ache is q frequent and distressing symptom.
 A very delicate stomach requires cas- fly digested food but nature never in- tended that the food should be digest ed before it was eaten. The stomach must be strengthened to perform it's own work and what it needs is not food already digested but a tonic. The processes of digestion are controlled by the blood and nerves, and medical science has produced no better digest i've tonic than Dr Williams Pink Pills.
 T had been troubled with nervous ness for some time," says Miss Julia A. Van Sickle, of 74 N. 9th street, Fort Dodge, Iowa, "and last winter 1 suffered a.great deal from loss of appe- tite, general weakness and exhaustion. The cause, think, was overwork teaching school here. My stomach was constantly filled with phlegm, which gave an extremely unpleasant feeling. and 1 had no desire for food of any kind. Every night 1 had high fever, which would continue until 1 fell to sleep. It would then go down and in the morn- ing 1 would not notice it at all. l had nervous headache nearly every after noon, especially when l began to get tired. My heart also troubled me skipping beat every once in while.
 My father urged me to take Dr Williams Pink Pills as he thinks very highly of them. In few days 1 saw they were helping me. My appetite returned and have not been bothered by stomach trouble or nervousness since. l always keep Pink Pills on hand to take as a tonic, when l feel tired out. firmly believe they saved me from severe and prolonged ill., ness."
 Dr Williams Pink Pills are doctors prescription, used by an eminent prac- titioner, and for nearly a generation known as reliable household remedy throughout the United States. Need less to say, no medicine could retain popular favor for so long a period without having great merit. Added to this is the absolute guarantee that the pills contain no opiate or narcotic and are entirely harmless.
 Dr Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or direct by mail post paid on receipt of price,, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.5O; by the Dr Williams Medicine Company, Schenec- tady, N. Y.

STATE AGAINST
GLENN ON TRIAL
TESTIMONY BEING HEARD IN
MURDER CASE FROM kEp
RON SECTION.
HIsTRIAL IN THE LIQUOR CASES
Jury In Doyle Trial SAID To
Have Been Eight TO -Four
For Guilty.

Another murder case was taken N
in the Circuit Court Tuesday morning
In that Of the State VS.. Jim Glenn, col
ored. This case comes from the
Kedron neighborhood and there are a
number of witnesses present from
that community. The Jury was EN-
pannelled with little difficulty and the
work Of taking the evidence began
during the morning session.
Glenn is charged with killing a
negro named Manse Grigsby and the
weapon used was a rock. The trouble
1t is said. started over I'VE cents,
which Grigsby claimed Glenn owed
him. Grigsby is said to have been a
rather dangerous and Qnarrelsome
character while Glenn rs OF q rather
timid nature. When Grigsby made a
claim for the money Glenn paid him,
and 1t is said the former afterwards
boosted that he would have killed
Glenn had not Glenn paid over the
money promptly. Glenn heard of
what Grigsby had said and went to
him, it is claimed, and asked why he
was talking about him.
Witnesses testify that some words
followed and Grigsby reached behind
him whereupon Glenn picked up a
rock and struck Grigsby in the head,
and then struck him another blow with
a rock The blows did not prove i'm
mediately fatal. Grigsby made several
trips about the country and it il
claimed caught cold in his wounds and
died soon afterwards.
The famous John Doyle liquor trial
ended Tuesday when the jury
filed in and stated that they could not !
agree and that there was little proba-
bility of their reaching an agreement. |
The jury, after some discussion be- !
tween the attorneys and Judge Hold !
ing, was then discharged. The jury, /
it is said, on the first ballot Monday |
afternoon stood six to six, but on the |
final ballot this morning stood eight
for conviction and four acQuittal. This
is the fourth time Doyle has been tried
In the lower courts on charges Of the
illegal sale of liquor and so far con-
Viction has not been returned. He
will have to face another jury either
at the present term OF court or at some

GUARANTEE or
BANK DEPOSITS
PLAN SUGGESTED BY sRYAN WAS
URGED BY JOE HUTTON
LONG AGO.
Columbia Banker Made The same
Suggestion 10 Speech
IN tees.

Jee r. Hutton. President OF the
Phoenix National Bank. Is An advO-
cate Of the plan suggested by Mr.
Bryan to have the government guar
antes the deposits OF banks. taxing
them an amount necessary TO create
= fund for the payment Of the deposit
tors in failed banks after all other
resources have been exhausted Or
rather to more correctly state the
proposition. Mr.. Bryan is an advocate
of Mr.. Hutton's plan. For more than
eleven years ago Mr. Hutton. then
cashier of the Phoenix Bank, before
the State Bankers Association, de-
livered an address embodying the
identical plan which Mr.. Bryan has
suggested.
In the course of his address on the
question OF bank deposits as cur
rency" Mr.. Hutton said:
Let the government stand for the
final payment of all deposits after
other assets OF failed bank are ex-
hausted, and for its protection tax all
banks on the amount OF their deposits
at such a per centum as would create
an ample sinking fund for it's protec-
ton. One-fourth Of one per cent
would perhaps be sufncient. This
amount, If it had been collected from
National banks from the beginning of
the system, would have created fund
which would have largely more than
covered all losses. and that too, in
years which include period OF fear
full financial depression.
But if it should take a tax Of ten
times that amount. OF more, the cost
would be insignificant as compared to
the good that would follow. This Is
not an untried scheme. 1t is as you
know in most successful operation in
applying however. only to
bank circulation; but it was tried in
the State of New York, where perhaps
the plan originated way back in the
thirties and forties, and covered both
bank notes and deposits. The tax
then was only one-ourth Of one per
sentum and although having to carry
he double load through period of
the widest banking ever known.
without any wise banking restrictions
,r supervision, 1t has to its credit
air measure of success"

the entire population. During the AZ

There was a big crowd OF Colum-

there were partisans { both teams In

and the large exodus from the city
these we're fairly well attended.
Altogether there has probably new.

Special TO The Herald.

Special 70 The Herald.
WASHINGTON, d. c.. Dec. 3--Pres
ident RooseVelt's message which val
read in Congress today covers q Va
riety OF subjects. In the opening par
, agraphs the president pays particular
attention to the present financial strin
gency. While admitting that as q
rule the business Of the country ia
conducted with honesty and probity,
the President declares that there are
some men in all lines OF business who
are dishonest, and when their mis-
deeds are discovered the suffering
does not come upon them alone.
Touching Interstate commerce the
President says that the founders Of
the nation wisely provided that the
national government should have con-
troll of this class OF commerce. The
President recommends a Federal IL
cense for railroads All roads which
do an interstate business should be
required to take out this license. The
President recommends additional anti
trust legislation. Incidentally the Pres
ident repeats the statements which
he has heretofore made that it is IN
wise to attempt to stop all forms Of
combinations, but they should and the
laws should be made more in harmony
with existing conditions.
The President in this connection
says: ITO confer upon the national
government in connection with the
amendment l advocate in the antitrust
law power of supervision over big bus
mess concerns engaged in interstate
commerce would benefit them as 1t
has benefited the national banks
Touching the pure food laws the
President urges close cooperation be-
tween the States and the federal au-
thorities. II again urge upon Con-
gress the immediate need OF currency
says the President. He
declares that greater elasticity is need
ed and urges that provision be made |
for an emergency currency. He says
that it is worth investigating as to
bank officers and directors !;
should be inhibited from loaning to
themselves.
On the tariff the President says that /
It cannot be revised at this time. The
President renews his recommends
ions for inheritance and income tax
rs. He also suggests that non-residents
should be taxed higher. The Presi-
lent says that corporations should be
inhibited from making campaign con-
He also recommends a
postal savings bank.

INSURANCE SUIT
REVERSED BY COURT
| coMbal ssIoNER CANNOT Arb,
TRARILY REVOKE THE IL
cENsE OF COMPANY.

| FRANKFORT, Ky, Dec. 3.-The
Court of Appeals, in an opinion deliv-
cred today by Judge Hobson, reversed
the case OF the Mutual Life Insuran ce
Company of New York vs.. Insurance
Commissioner Prewitt, and held that
the Insurance Commissioner can not,
without statutory reason, revoke the
license OF an insurance company to
do business in the State. The case
was heard by the full bench, and Chief
Justice O'Rear and Judges Lassing
and Num- dissenting from the opinion
of the majority. The case grew out Of
the action OF Commissioner Prewitt In
revoking the company's license to do
business in Kentucky at the time they
relieved Biscoe Hindman of the
agency, because It was claimed he
was unfriendly to the administration
then in power in the company. The
Franklin Circuit Court held that Com |
missioner Prewitt held the power 70
revoke arbitrarily the license Of
company, and the case was at once
taken to the Court OF Appeals.
