by the Wanderers Who
Win Contest

JoHNSTOwN. Sept. 2.-Although
Wilmington played a slow and indiffer
ent game against the Johns. the Or
phans managed to down the Johns on
their own grounds 5 to through the
miserable pitching of Neuer, who was
panned off on Ashenback by President
Murphy of Chicago. in part payment
for "Rube" Kroh. Only brilliant sup.
port saved him from a worse beating.
Ashenback seemed to use poor judg-
ment in not benching him in the sew
enth inning when he forced in the win
ming run for Wilmington. The timely
batting Of Conn and Johnson featured.
Johnson also starring with a one-hand
catch over his head in deep center.
Several Johns were nipped trying to
stretch their hits out. The series with
Wilmington and Johnstown now stands
for the season thirteen to five in favor

Commissioners Appointed.

The State Board of Election Com missioners Saturday completed the task of appointing election commis' sioners for Cleburne and Scott coun- ties, the last counties to be taken up, were as follows:
 Cleburne-Tom Brice, w. A. Cobb and William Johnson.
 Scott-R. F. Paine, w. c. Mankin and c. A. Atkins.
 The board has taken no action as yet in the case of the Pulaski county appointees. w. NJ. kavanaugh and Mayor w. G. Joslyn, both uf whom are candidates in the coming election. The board members stated Saturday that they were waiting for the two men to decide whether they desired to withdraw as commissioners. They stated that they understood Mayor Joslyn would withdraw as commis- sioner, and that another Republican would have to be appointed, but ex- pressed the belief that MT. kava- naugh would probably withdraw as a candidate and retain his appoint ment as commissioner.
 Under the law candidate cannot act as election commissioner.

State Capital Notes
Negroes Duel; Bystander Shot.

As the result of pistol duel be- tween Isaac Champion and Leon Isch, negroes, at Ninth and Gaines streets early Tuesday afternoon, Isch 1t at his home at GA West Ninth street with a bullet in his thigh and Sidney Brown, a negro teamster, who lives at Fourteenth and Chester, is walk ing about the city living example of the fact that in affairs of this sort it is the innocent bystander who gets the worst of the deal.
 Isch runs a barber shop at Ninth and Gaines streets, and Champion is employed as porter at the Marion hotel, rooming at Ninth and Izard
 Early in the afternoon Champion was walking west on Ninth street to- ward the barber shop. and as he near ed the place Isch came from within. At sight. each negro drew a pistol and began firing Five shots were ex- changed, and when the firing ceased Isch was down with wound in the thigh Champion was running away from the scene and Brown, the teams ter, was staggering about with four bullet wounds in his neck Brown was between the two men when the firing began and was struck by a stray bullet.
 Isch was taken to Dr. Hayman's office, where his wound was dressed, and later removed to his home, where he was placed under arrest, the charge against him being assault to kill.
 Brown was taken to the city hos pital, where the wounds in his neck were attended There were four dis tinct perforations of the skin, but the hospital authorities declare that they were made by one bullet, which glanced and entered the flesh a sec ond time. Brown walked up town after his neck was bandaged and seemed proud of the distinction that came from having four holes from a 45-calibre bullet in such vital part of his anatomy
 Champion went to the constable's office Tuesday evening with F. M. Fulk his attorney, and surrendered to Deputy Constable J. F.. Tunnels. His bond was fixed at $500 for his ap- pearance before Justice Frank Martin August 10. to answer to charge of assault with intent to kill.

Send Prisoners Home for Sunday.

That there is honor among thieves we'll established theory, but that the average female negro habitue of the police court should respect parole is considered to be a little out of the ordinary. With the Little Rock DO lice this is not considered the least wonderful, from the fact that the custom of allowing we'll known negro women prisoners to go home Saturday night and return Monday morning has been followed for some time, with out any unpleasant consequences.
 That this custom has prevailed Is not generally known, however, and the casual visitor to the city hall Sat urday afternoon was surprised to hear an officer giving special instructions to a negro woman who was being told she might go home to spend Sunday with the understanding that she re port back to the city jail Monday morning, to complete her sentence. This system is working most satis factorily to the police, especially since the department has been moved into the new city hall. Negro women who are fined in police court and are not able to pay the fine are allowed to work out their fines in the city hall, doing scrubbing and other labor of this kind. The police declare that after working six days, the use Of soap and water in generous quantities tends to better the prisoners physical condition materially, and for that reason the women are encouraged to go home for Sunday. They say that rarely ever does a negro woman go home Saturday night, before com pleting her sentence, that she does not return Monday morning to re- sume her work. If this should occur all patrolmen are notified and within a short time the derelict is again in the tolls.
 Another feature which appeals to herself on Sunday, whereas the city is compelled to feed her while in the lookup.
 The janitor at the city hall has charge of the women who are work ing out their fines, and he has no trouble in keeping them at work. They are not guarded, but none have been known to take French leave, for they realize thoroughly that they will be brought into court again, if they should leave, and they have a very wholesome fear of Police Judge Ratterree.

Showed Prisoner the Town.

A rather unusual experience is said to have occurred to A. H. Hend- ricks, marshal of Waldo, while he was in Little Rock recently. Accord ing to a report from a reliable source, Marshal Hendricks went to Conway county, where he secured prisoner by the name of NJ. Murray, who was wanted in Waldo on the charge of bigamy, and started back home, stop ping over in Little Rock Thursday night According to the report, the marshal did not place his prisoner in jail here for safe keeping, but in stead took him along with him while taking in the city, with the result that the prisoner finally made his escape.

This sign is permanently attached co the front of the main building of the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Company, Lynn, Mass.
 What Does This Sign Mean?
 It means that public inspection of the Laboratory and methods of doing business is honestly desired. Itmeans that there is nothing about the bus- mess which is not "open and above- board"
 It means that a permanent invita- tion is extended to anyone to come and verify any and all statements made in the advertisements of Lydia l.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 Is it a purely vegetable compound made from roots and herbs -- with out drugs?
 Come and See.
 Do the women of America continu- ally use as much of 1t as We are told :! Come and See.
 Was there ever such a person as Lydia E. Pinkham, and IS there any Mrs. Pinkham now to whom sick woman are asked to write? Come and See.
 Is the vast private correspondence with sick women conducted by women only, and are the letters kept strictly confidential
 Come and See.
 Have they really got letters from over one million, one hundred thousand women correspondents? Come and See.

 This advertisement is only for doubters. The great army of women who know from their own personal experience that no medicine in the world equals Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for female ills will still go on using and being ben efited by it; but the poor doubting, suffering woman must, for her own sake, be taught confidence, ,forshe also might just as well regain her health

Democratic Party Defends Honest
 Wealth

We may expect those who have com mitted larceny by law and purchased i'm munity with their political influence. to attempt to raise false issues, and to em- ploy the livery of heaven" to conceal their evil purposes. but they can no long, CT deceive. The Democratic party is not the enemy of any legitimate industry or of honest accumulations. It is, on the contrary, q friend of industry and the steadfast protector of that wealth which represents a service to society. The Democratic party does not seek to an- initiate all corporations; 1t simply asserts that as the government creates corpora tions, it must retain the power to regu- late and to control them, and that It should not permit any corporation to convert itself into monopoly. Surely we should have the cooperation of all legitimate corporations in our effort to protect business and industry from the odium which lawless combinations of capital will, if unchecked, cast upon them Only by the separation of the good from the bad can the good be made se-

Not Revolution But Reformation.


 The Democratic party seeks not revolu- ton but reformation, and need hardly remind the student of history that cures are midest when applied at once; that remedies increase in severity as their application is postponed. Blood poison ing may be stopped by the loss of a tin- ger to-day; 1t may cost an arm to-mor- row or a life the next day. So poison Tn the body polite can not be removed too soon for the evils produced by 1t increase with the lapse of time. That there are abuses which need to be remedied. even the Republican candidate admits: that his party is unable to remedy them, has been fully demonstrated during the last ten years. l have such confidence in the intelligence as well as the patriotism of the people. that l can not doubt their readiness to accept the reasonable re- forms which our party proposes, rather than permit the continued growth of ex- isting abuses to hurry the country on to remedies more radical and more drastic.
 The Divine Law of Rewards.
 There is a Divine law of rewards. When the Creator gave us the earth. with its fruitful soil, the sunshine with it's warmth, and the rains with their mois- ture he proclaimed as clearly as if his voice had thundered from the clouds: "Go work. and according to your industry 
 reward" Only where might has over- thrown, cunning undermined or govern ment suspended this law, has a different law prevailed. To conform the govern ment to this law ought to be the ambi- ton of the statesman; and no party can have a higher mission than to make 1t reality wherever governments can legiu- mately operate.
