NEW GOLD PIECES
The First National Bank Receives Installment of St Gaudens Coin.

InStallment or St GauOenS COln.
 Hartford, Nov 14.-The First National bank received yesterday, its first installment of the class of coins called by bankers "St Gaudens coins'' fresh from the mint. In the opinion of experts scattered throughout the country the design is open to several objections.
 In the first place the circle which marked the told type is omitted from the new. The circle was stamp ed along the rim and just inside the milling. Its absence gives the coin an unfinished look.
 In the second place the feathers on the Indians head on the face of the coin are described as monstrous- ly inartistic. They resembled the spread tail of Thanksgiving gob- bier.
 On the obverse the great and glor- ious American eagle resembled Q penguin with a pain. The United States of America" is crowded and damned into a scanty semi-circle The "E Pluribus Unum" and the 'In God We Trust" are packed in anywhere and unsymmetrically.
 At first the coin went out without "In God We Trust" but the old ia. miliar words were restored. At first too. much of the design was raised or elevated in the engraving. It wal foreseen that the raised work would interfere with the stacking of coin' | on tellers' counters, and the batcf which arrived yesterday has the sur face flat and the engraving sunk.

Eugene " Debs and his brother claim that they cast two socialist votes in their home precinct at Terre Haute, Ind Voting in Terre Haute is done by means of a machine, but when the clerks of election in the Debs precinct counted the ballots they did not find any votes for the socialist party candidates. Have we not always known that machines were conscienceless ?-New Haven Union.
 The Debses must have voted for the other fellow like all those Waterbury republicans that voted, so they said, for Lilley. This voting is great thing after all. Men will talk and shout, and spend money sometimes, and then turn around and vote the other way, when they get in the lit tie cabinet, where no one can see or hear. Does any one for a minute think that Tom Waller or Judge Robertson voted for Bryan at the last election. A careful scrutiny of the vote cast by those and other good CD democrats might make disclosures that would be startling, to say the least

A very hopeful tone, however. per
 vades the entire market, which Is en-
 tirely justified by improvement in
 business conditions and by the better railroad outlook. says Banker Clews. Railroad traffic is steadily recovering
 and gross earnings for October thus far reported show a decrease of less than 4 per cent compared with 6 per cent in September and 12 to P per
 cent in the previous months of the current year. November returns will l be much more satisfactory as to gross earnings, for traffic will shortly return to the normal in volume; in l fact. has already done so on some lines. When lessened expenses and ! better rates are taken into considera- 1 tion, 1t will be seen that the rail road outlook is really exceptionally promising. This fact and the cheap | ness of money chiefly account for the present high level of stocks ;and nc ! material recession can be expected until underlying conditions change
 While the present optimistic state oi feeling lasts holders are reluctant sellers, even when handsome profit! are to be had for the taking. The downward turn will probably come
 when the big capitalists have dis tributed their surplus holdings and
 when interest rates advance, as they certainly will with the improvement in business and the increased mer.

CLOSE CALL
PASSENGER TRAIN DERiI1iED
NEAR LOUISVILLE SUNDAY.
Senator J. Wheeler Campbell and
Glenn Whittemorc Were Among
the Passengers. ~

Louisville, Feb. 1S.-Nearly two
hundred passengers on the Illinois
Central train from New Orleans. due

O'Clock, had a hair-raising experience
about twenty-five miles west of here
A frightful catastrophe and loss OF
life were only narrowly averteds
The train was approaching Null
draugh, just beyond West Point, and
just as the locomotive passed onto the.
trestle the forward trucks of the ten
der were derailed with jolt that
threw the passengers from their seats.
In great alarm they chung to seats
and woodwork as the train continued
to bump across the trestle with a
succession of jars and jerks.
Just beyond the trestle the train
was brought to a standstill, and the
crew spent nearly two hours in get

rails. First the engine was uncoupled

work. Among them were Senator
Wheeler Campbell, OF Paducah, and
Glen j. Whittemore. of Mayfeld. and
Simon "A. Dreifus. of Louisville.
The trestle at Muldraugh is over
series OF gulches and is 100 feet high
at one point. When the passengers
realized that they had bumped across
this elevation with the tender wheels
derailed they recovered fIom their
fright sufficiently TO marvel how the
rear cars remained on the track, and
to return thanks for their narrow
escape.
Engineer Tried 10 Stop.
The engineer said that he felt the
tender wheels leave the track and at
tempted to slow down in crossing the
trestle, but was unable to lessen the
speed OF the locomotive within such a
short space. He. too. was devoutly
thankful that the accident was moth
ing worse.
The train was composed of nine
coaches, including Pullman sleepers
and baggage, express and mail COM
partments. II reached Louisville at
1918 O'Clock, nearly three hours late.

TICK OF CLOCK

TWENTY YEARS.
Jamaica Plain Turns Up n Modern
Miracle In Mrs. Wciler's 8
Case.

Boston, Feb. F.-There seems L
be no let-up in the'tremendous inter
est that has been aroused in this cit,
and vicinity by Il. r. Cooper. th'
young philanthropist. who is intro
ducing his preparations to Boston
people. The remarkable results ac
complished by him in the past two
weeks are daily becoming more mani
fest. Some of those who purch aseC
his medicine In the early part of his
visit are now calling at his headquar.
ters. the JayneS Drug Store, so Wash.
lngton street, TO report results.
Yesterday was record breaking
day. and many present were anxious
to tell what Coopers preparations had
done for them. One of these was Mrs
w. Weller, living at 1861 Washington
street, Jamaica Plain. Mrs. Weller
had previously been treated for deaf
ness, which. according to her story,
had afflicted her for twelve years. She
can now hear any ordinary CONVERSE
ton. In relating her experience Mrs.
Weller said:
For twelve years / have been af-
nicted with catarrhal deafness, and
heard no word during that time.

my husband OF constipation. although
he has been taking medicine all his
life for Il without relief. He has no
trouble of that kind at all since TAX
ing the medicine. We both consider
these medicines TO be perfectly won
derful in what they accomplish"
Statements such as this from
sources of unquestioned integrity have
firmly established public confidence In
Cooper's ability. and although some
members OF the medical profession
scoff when the subject is brought up
in their presence, the faith of the peo-
pie generally remains mistaken.

THE PROOFS"

What basis is there for the state
ment that there has been no real
treatment for kidney disease?
The medical term for kidney dis
ease is NEPHRITIs, which means
Inflammation of the kidneys, and till
recently there was nothing that would
allay kidney Inflammation.
But there are many kidney medi-
clnes so-called, and many people with
kidney trouble get we'll!
Because 1t commonly gets well at
first.
Medical writer's now declare that
kidney disease develops so uncon-
sciously that, as rule, it is far ad-
vanced before 1t is discovered (see
Medical Brief" p. S02)
They admit that in the secondary
stage they have no specific for it (see
same authority, same page).
That this is true is also shown by
the enormous growth of the census
deaths from kidney dlsorders-now
over 40 per day.
How then can any of the old-time
kidney medicines be considered
I"cures?"
After two years of quest and eX-
pertinent the late John J. Fulton was
the first man In the world to discover
a compound that by direct action on
the kidney tissues allays kidney In
Illumination.
Fultpn's Renal Compound, as II Is
called, Is controlling kidney disease,
both in the first and second stages,
that were never known before to re-
spond to medicine.

sWashlngton, Feb. 1S.---What win

year hence? This is a question which
many have asked, and which no on,

But there l. one point as to his

not accept seat in the United States
senate. within the past forty eight
hours the president has told personal
friends of his decision as to this.
There has been great deal OF talk
OF the president going to the senats
as the successor OF Senator Thomas
c. Plat. of New York. who will step
down aud out the 18th OF March, 1909.
For long time the president himself
looked upon this with favor without

idea appealed to him, and he talked
II over with his friends. some {,
whom advised him TO go 10 the SEM
