General Dem and

Of the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its com
ponent parts are known TO them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex.
cellent combination Of Syrup Of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits Of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup Of Figs and Elixir Of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get it's beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
iornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price Fifty cents
per bottle.

THE Glide OF THE
NIGHT RIDERS TAKEN
Evidence Enough to Hang at Least Four
Women Whipped by Gang.

Samburg Tenn, Oct. 29,-The ring
leader of the night riders in this section,
it is believed, is prisoner at Camp
Memo His name is Garrett Johnson.
1t is the general opinion that Johnson,
if he can be compelled to talk, could tell
more about the recent outrage than any
other man under arrest. Not less than
forty men alleged to have been connected
actively with night riders in this vicinity
are under arrest, and the authorities
believe enough evidence has already been
collected to hang at least four Of them.
The confession of lid" Burton Is the
sensation of the day, both here and at
Union City, and it is believed he has
not yet told all he knows about the kill
ing of Capt. Rankin. John r. Cochran,
the man captured after chase on the
lake, has confessed that the night rider
outrages have included the whipping of
women. One woman was whipped for
leaving her husband and another for be.

The latest reports to reach here from
Tiptonville is that Burton has broken
down completely, and that his confession

Even the oath taken by night riders has
been confessed though the officials will
not make public the wording

An Unfortunate Paraphrase.

Gen. Sheridan used to take delight
in telling the following;
"A young man seated at dinner one
time said to his wife,
Ellen, if you are good at guessing,
here is conundrum for you. If the
devil should lose his tail where would
he go to get another one"
after some time spent in guessing
she gave it up,

Eager to get it off, she FASTENED to
lady friend with:

SAY HE FIRED FIVE BULLETS.
Lachapelle and Wife Rolled Under
Bed.

Brunswick. Me-, Oct. 2s.--Leoncc
Ouellette last night entered the room
of Mr.. and Mrs. Enzebe Lacnapelle and
fired five shots from new 3s-calibrt
revolver, according to the charge Of the
Lachapelles. They say that at the first
shot they rolled out of their bed and
under it, and so escaped the bullets.
Then while Laehapelle fought Duel.
lette the woman rushed out half dress
ed and called assistance. Constable
Louis Theberge ran to the house and
had 0uellette partially subdued when
constable Isaiah r. Morrell and officer
Auguste st. Pierre arrived The sight of
them aroused 0uellette anew and he
fought like a demon before he was
overpowered.
0uellette is locked up. The charge
against him will probably be assault
with intent to kill.
The shooting and fight happened in a
practically dark tenement on the east
side Of Main street.
Mrs. Lachapelle is niece Of Duel
lctte, and the Laehapelles, all lived in
the tenement.
1t is said 0uellette objected when his
niece was married about three years
ago and had never entirely forgiven
her.

He is Finally Shaken OFF by
Curtis
THE LATTER WARNED HIM
OF Coming Failure--So the Farmer Bank
President Says-Eudence Comes as
Surprise to Morse's
Counsel.

New York, Oct 29.--When Alfred
II. Curtis, formerly president of tho
National bank Of North America, re.
sumed his testimony yesterday the
trial on charges against him and Charlie.
w. Morse OF violating national banking
laws, he said weekly reports were made
by him to the banks directors showing
the loans, collateral. reserve, etc. There
was a rule in the bank, he said. that
il must have on hand at the end OF
the week cash representing 20 per cent
of its net deposits.
Taking up the governments testi.
mony regarding the lack Of reserve in
the National bank Of North America
Mfr. Olcott, counsel for Curtis. endeav.
ored to prove that fully half the SO
clearing house banks had about that
time but 20 to 20 and "a per cent. OF
their deposits on hand in cash. U. S.
Atty Stimson objected to questions
along this line and Judge Hough sus-
tanned him.
Mr.. 0lcott next took up the various
dummy" loans made on ice" at the
time trading in the stock was so brisk.
Many Of the Whiting dummy" loans
Mr.. Curtis could not recall without CON
sulting the records and some of them
he could not remember at all. Mr..
Curtis told of Mr.. Morse paying off with
his personal check for SPAS 900 the to-
tai Whiting loans then outstanding
The profit on this loan TO the bank was
S30500, he said.
Nv furf 10 aatI that al he h.
referred in letter TO "our ice holdings
the stock in question really was the
property of Mr.. Morse. He said the
directors generally referred to the ice
as "ours" because the bank was get.
ting the profits.
With reference to the governments
allegation that sharges Of $12,500 and
$4,000 due to the Whitney loan were
made against the banks commission ac-
count, Mr. Curtis said he could not
'oeall whether be had ordered the two
sums charged as loss to the bank or
not. There were profits Of S154000
which Morse had made for the institu-
tion on ice, said he.
In an effort to clear his client from
the implication that he was acquiscent
in all Morse's schemes. Judge Olcott
read letter written by Curtis to
Morse in June. 1907, in which a state
ment Of the banks condition was made
with a request for action that should
decrease the longtime loans and in
crease the banks supply OF cash. The
letter was never sent to Morse, but
shown TO him privately, according to
the witness. This was on the advice Of
John II. Flagler, who told him that
Morse was very rich man and very
and would surely straigh-
ten things out. In the letter there was
referred to the fact that the banks po.
sition was anything but safe one,
because of the large out
standing loans to Morse enterprises.

EXTERNAL REMEDY FOR ECZEMA
Why Salves Fail While a Simple Liquid
Has Accomplished Thousands of Cures.

It Is now thoroughly established
among the best medical authorities that
eczema is purely a skin disease, due to
germ and durable only through the
skin. 1t is not blood disease at all;
in fact, thousands Of people suffer with
skin disease and are perfectly healthy
otherwise, and therefore prove they
have no diseased blood.
Smeary salves cannot reach the
germs because they do not penetrate
the skin The only way to reach the
germs is by means of a penetrating
liquid
Such liquid can be obtained by
simply mixing ordinary oil of winter
green with thymol, glycerine and other
healing agents. This compound known
as D. d. D. Prescription stops the itch
instantiy-and the cures all appear per-
tnanant. In fact, 1t took thousands of
cures, case after case, before the best
scientific authorities were convinced of
the absolute merit Of this remedy. The
effect Of q. d. d. Prescription In numb
ing the itching eczema germs is seen
within one minute after the first appli-
cation. We especially recommend D. d.
u. Soap in connection with this treat
ment.

COURT TAKES CAR LINES.
Court Acts to Protect The Cleveland
Public.

Cleveland, Oct. 29--The Central Trust
company Of New York as trustee for
the bcndholders of the Cleveland rail-
way company yesterday filed a suit in
the Federal court praying that a re-
ceiyer be appointed for the Municipal
Traction company, now operating the
lines of the former corporation in this
city. Judge Taylor Of the federal court
issued temporary order tying up all
the funds held by the Municipal com
pany, except such as may be necessary
for the payment of wages.
The Central Trust company of New
York has a mortgage for ss,276,000 up.
on the property which it was given for
the security Of bonds. The action is
the result Of the recent referendum
vote which practically left the car
companies without franchise and the
property in chaotic condition with
contending interests claiming rights and
ownership. The new court action, il Is
said, will insure the public adequate
railway service while the affairs Of the
opposing interests will be Strengthened
out The hearing is set for next Mon
day.

Begun.

session OF the third Russian Duma was
opened yesterday and the sittings of
the Council of the Empire began yester.
day afternoon. This is the first time a
Russian parliament has come to its sec
ond session. The first and second Dumas
did not survive first session. This
fact has brought out much satisfaction,
as well as the hope and the belief that
the present Dlima win be OF far greater
service to the country than was either
the first or second. The survival of this
body is undoubtedly great achievement
for the Octobrist party, whose enemies
even given the 0ctobrists credits for
their success.
In the Tauride palace the deputies
plunged Immediately into the Balkan
situation by means of an urgent inter
pellation to which all the parties sub
scribed. NJ. Maklakoff, Constitutionalist-
Democrat, made a vigorous attack on the
government. He declared that the an
nexation Of Bosnia and Herzegovina by
Austria Hungary was a national ques.
tion and that the attempts of the gov.
