Perhaps the greatest triumph that Mr.. Hartman has ever won was
when' At the last moment, he stepped in and cleared up the dificultie,
OF IN erie railroad and saved it from a receivership and possibly bank
ruptcy. Even the Nation says:
e. /. Hartman is the only person who comes creditably out of the
recent middle in the affairs of the Erie"
Then, after reviewing the facts, how everything had failed, MI. Har-
riman stepped in and cleared everything up, it says:
In an AFFAIR of this sort we are not greatly concerned over utter
Tor motives. The plain fact is that somebody did not do his duty at n
Juneture, and that somebody else did. When a ship is laboriny
hea'hy the mcers are preparing to leave it to founder with its
any one who stops the leak and keeps the vessel aaoat de.

ABE RUFF FOUND

FORMER POLITICAL BOSS OF SAN

BRIBERY.
Dramatic End Of TriaI-FrancIs j.
Heney Hears the, Verdict Read
Defendant May Get Fourteen
Years In the Penitentiary.

San Francisco, Dec. 11.-Abraham
Ruef, former political boss of San
Francisco, was convicted Thursday Of
bribery. The verdict was returned
exactly upon the stroke of four O'clock
when the deliberations Of the jury had
been prolonged throughout q period
of "a hours. .1. {, 49,. II.
The warnings Of Judge William P.
Lawlor and the, vigilance of the po-
lice checked all attempted demonstra-
ton, although the excitement In the
courtroom was so intense that men
were thrust down into their seats or
held in the grasp of detectives as they
rose to obtain q better view Of the
proceedings. " -
Impressive Scene In Court. =.
AS the jury filed into the courtroom
and took their seats in the jurybox,
Judge Lawlor asked Foreman Nc
Namara:
.'Have. you gentlemen reached a
verdict?" NV --.
1--WE have" replied the foreman as
he handed a folded slip of paper to
Clerk Welch. An impressive silence
followed. Attorneys, defendant, spec
tators, detectives and police held their
breath as the clerk slowly and DELHI
erately, yet with apparent agitation,
unfolded the paper and then, as every
eye in the courtroom was riveted upon
him, read the words: eve, the jury,
find the defendant, Abraham Ruef,
| guilty as charged"
Immediately all arose to their feet.
There was murmur of approval, but
no demonstration. - ,...
At the other end Of the counsel
table, near the place where his blood
had dyed the floor a deep crimson
red which had been effaced with sand
paper, sat Francis J. Heney, who ap
peared in the courtroom for the first
time since the day he was shot.
Ruef Thinks of His Father.
Ruef sat between his father and
Thomas B. Dozier of the defense when
the verdict was returned. He had
spent the greater part of the day IL
conversation with his aged parent and
though his face paled and his eyes re
manned fixed for long time upon the
men who had pronounced his fate, al
most his first thought was for the
elder Mr.. Ruef. He whispered few
words of encouragement to the ole
man and sent him out of the room tt
break the news to the defendants
mother and sisters.
BY previous agreement of counse
that the bill of exceptions should bt
settled later, the court set Saturday
December ~, as the day for pro
nouncing judgment. Ruef's conviction
renders him liable to maximum pen

You need sufficient amount Of
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest it.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach II
it is: weak.
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat suffic-
lent amount Of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do it,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do Is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol d.
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help it BY giving It rest,
and Kodol will do that.

"'Tis fine night for rabbiting, eh,
Rough2" said Dan to his dog, as he came
to 4 warren. But bide a minute" he
added.
His eye had been attracted by little
mountain ash growing above the warren.
Being young tree, it had not lost its red,
autumnal leaves, and it was laden with
berries. -
''Now. that would make pretty Christ
mas-tree for the little ones" he said.
He pulled it up by its roots from the
loose earth, and put it under neighbor-
ing oak.
Taking net out of his pocket, he fixed
It round some of the rabbit-holes in the
warren, and said to the dog:
Nov round 'em up. lad; round EN-

Rough knew his work we'll. He raced
like black shadow across the moonlit
waste of snow, to the nearest field of winter
cabbages, and there he silently routed out
the rabbits, and sent them helter-skelter
back to their holes.
''Drat the net!" said Dan, springing Out
from behind the oak.
Somehow he had not fixed it firmly, and
tho rabbits knocked it over and escaped.
Only ono got entangled in the loose meshes,
lone wild rabbit isn't much of a Christ

beside the mountain ash,
"Ah, hal I've caught you red-handed

I'm only after rabbit" he exclaimed.
