GIVEN ALTERNATIVE
Archie List Must Get Out of
Town or Go to the
Reformatory.
ACTIONS TROUBLESOM ME.

One Archie List, society favOrite
and youthful king of the COlOred juve-
nile piano players, today was given
the alternative of leaving the city this
afternoon or going TO the refOrmatOrY.
Archie said he would go as he did not
relish the suggest ton that he spend d
year or so wiring brOOmS and dream
ing of the days when he presided at
the piano in the leading hotel at Rich
mond The fall would be too severe.
Last week Archie was arrested as the
climax of a number of crooked cpl
sOdes and was arraigned in the circuit
court To Judge Fox he admitted the
error of his ways and was given four
days of grace.
The police authorities did not see
where any advantage would be gained
by permitting List the freedom of the
city. They feared for the safety of all
things movable. List is young and
small but peculiarly adroit and just
can't keep his fingers off of other per-
sons possessions, it is alleged. He
told the Judge he would like to have
four days in which to make restitu-
ton, pay some of his debts and restore
a number of stolen articles. The
court granted his request upon his
promise 10 leave the city at the eX-
piratiOn Of his time.
List did not go, however, and Sat
urday night became involved in
trouble at the carnival grounds. Upon
the instruction of Chief Bailey he was
put off the grounds and told to leave
the city. He did not go and Patrolman
Yingling picked him up on the street
last nih List was told very plainly
this morjing that if he is found in the
city after today he will be sent to the
refOrmatOry.

Cures Eczema Quickly
New Drug, PosIan, Now obtainahle in
Small Quantities.

Since its discovery one year ago.
the new drug, poslam. has successfully
cured thousands of chronic cases OF
eczema and other distressing skin af-
fiCtiOns. Heretofore pOslam has been
dispensed solely for the benefit Of &c,
zema patients in large jars sufficient
for months treatment. This was
found to be an inconvenience to many
thousands who use it for minor skin
troubles, such as pimples, blaCkheads,
herpes. acne, scaIy scalp, complexion
blemishes, itching feet, piles, etc,
which require but small quantity to
cure. To overcome this. and in re-
Spouse to urgent appeals, the dis
pensers Of poslam have been obliged
to adopt. in addition to the regular
twO-dollar package. a special tlfty-cent
size, which in the future may be found
on sale at w. II. Sudhoff's and other
leading drug stores in Richmond, or
may be ordered direct from the Emer-
genCy Laboratories, No 80 West 25th
street, New York City. In all eczema
cases poslam stops Itching with first
application, and proceeds to heal i'm
mediately; chronic cases being cured
in two weeks. In less serious skin
troubles, results are seen after an Ov-
ernight application.
Samples for experimental purposes
may still be had. free of charge, by
writing TO the laboratories for them.

A RELIABLE REMEDY FOR THE
Whiskey and Beer Habit

Very few men become drunkards be-
cause they like liquor. 1t is frequent
~ the moderate drinker, who before
he realizes his condition, has become
a drunkard. The nervous system,
having become accustomed to stimu-
lantS, is unable to do the same amount
or quality of work without liquor
hence the victim drinks more and
more. This is a state of disease and
should be treated by Orrine. 1t de-
strOys the desire for liquor, so that
the drink is not missed. There is no
loss of time or detention from work
when it is used
Orrine is prepared in two forms:
No. /, the secret remedy which can be
used in food or drink without the
knowledge of the patient; No. for
those who take the remedy of their
own free will. Both forms are guar
anteed. A registered guarantee in ev-
cry box.
Treatise on how TO cure drunken
ness free on request. The Orrine Co,
Washington, D. c. The price of eth
er form is 81 a box making the cost of
the complete cure less than One-tenth
what it is usually charged at sanitar-
iums, with a guarantee that the eX-
pense will be nothing unless a cure is
gained. Mail orders filled in plain
sealed package on receipt of price.
Orrine is for sale by A. G. Luken &
Co, Richmond, Ind.

SUFFERS GANGRENE.
Disease Slowly Taking the
Life of James Personnel
Of the West Side.
OPERATIONS UNAVAILING.

Physicians having failed by means
Of repeated amputations, to stop the
spread Of gangrene, James Personnel,
a carpenter. residing at 253 Chestnut
street, has been removed to his home
from the Reid Memorial hospital
where he underwent several opera
lions. Several weeks ago Mr.. Per
sOnett suffered an injury to the great
toe on one of his feet. 1t was not be
Iieved to be serious at first, but later
the flesh was found to be decaying and
the toe was amputated. The physi-
clans took the usual precautions, but
the patient did not improve very rap
idly. 1t was found upon later exami-
nation that gangrene had developed
again and second amputation re-
moved all of the fore portion Of the
foot The disease continued TO spread
however. and the third operation re-
moved the entire remaining portion
of the foot and the leg about half way
to the knee.
Mr., Personnel is an elderly man and
il seems his flesh has been unable TO
withstand the attacks of gangrene
The disease has made its appearance
for the fourth time. Physicians have
despaired and because of the mans age
and other reasons it is not deemed ad-
visable to continue the operations.
Mr.. PersOnetts condition is very seri-
Gus and there is a strong probability
it will prove fatal.

The very earliest banking firm of
which there is any record was that of
Egibi & Sons. an institution which car
ried on advance. exchange and general
financial business in Babylon in the
year 600 B. c. knowledge of this firm
Is obtained from certain records on
clay tablets which have been found in
recent excavations made by party Of
English and French archaeologists
near the site Of the ancient city above
mentioned. Bills of credit. drafts, etc.
in the form of small burnt clay tablets
each bearing the characteristic sigma

in many other parts of Asia Minor, and

On EALING In Love.

Falling in love Is the one illogical
adventure. the one thing OF which we
are tempted to think as supernatural.
in our trite and reasonable world. The
effect IS out of all proportion TO the
cause. Two persons, neither Of them,
1t may be, very amiable or very beau.
tiful, meet, speak little and look a
little into each others eyes. That has
been done a dozen or so OF times In
the experience of either with no great
result But on this occasion all is diff
ferent. They fall at once into that
state in which another person becomes
to us the very gist and center point OF
Gods creation and demolishes our la
borious theories with a smile; in which
our ideas are so bound up with the one
master thought that even the trivial
ca3s of our own person become so
many acts OF devotion. and the love of
life itself is translated into q wish to
remain in the same world with so
precious and desira bic a fellow crea
ture. And all the while their acQuaint-
ances look on in stupor and ask each
other. with almost passionate empha-
sis, what So-and-so can see in that
woman or Such-an-one in that man?
am sure. gentlemen, l cannot tell

TRICKY JAIL BIRDS.
Many Ways the Convicts Have of
Feiqnina Sickness

Hear the song of the dear little Jail
birds" said the jailer as a burst Of
ribald melody came down the gray
corridor. The dear little Jail BIRDS"
He shook his head and sighed.
They are all playing sick in that
ward he resumed. There's nobody
can malinger like a jail bird. His
tricks are amazing
ITO fake a fever he will whiten his
tongue with chalk. flush his cheeks
with a red flannel undershirt and dis
order his stomach by swallowing a
Quid of tobacco.
ITO fake consumption he will cut
his gums so as to spit blood and go
through a terrific kind Of Swedish
movement in bed SO as to produce
night sweats
Some jail birds have brought on
nettle rash by temporarily poisoning
themselves with smuggled crab or lob
ster. Some chew soap so as to froth
at the mouth in fake fits. Some even
thrust needles down to the lids of the
eye TO bring on taract"-Minneap-

SENDS WORD TO FRIENDS.

Frederick Davenport, the forger.
broke down when he reached the pen
itentiary at Michigan City, and wept
The man displayed stoical indiffer-

Wayne circuit court and at no time
showed any tremOrs of remOrse. He
spoke to his brother and sent word to
his friends, but had no message for
his wife. When the prison gates
closed behind him and he began serv-
ing a sentence of from two to four
teen years the mans indifference gave
way. He told Sheriff Meredith he
realized then what a mistake he had

THE CRY OF THE DREAMER.

THE CRY OF THE DREAMER
I am tired OF planning and toiling
In the crowded hives of men;
Heart weary Of building and spelling.
And spelling and building again.
And l long for the dear old river,
Where l dreamed my youth away,
For a dreamer lives forever.
And a tOiler dies in a day.
I am sick of the snowy seeming
OF a life that is half lie,
or the faces lined with schemng
In the throng that hurries by;
From the sleepless thoughts endeavor
1 would go where the children play,
For a dreamer lives forever.
And a thinker dies in day.
I can feel no pride. but pity
For the burdens the rich endure;
There is nothing sweet in the city
But the patient lives Of the poor.
Oh. the little hands too skillful
And the child-mind Choked with weeds
The daughters heart grown willful
And the fathers heart that bleeds'
No, no. From the streets rude hustle,
From trophies OF mart and stage.
l would fly to the woods low rustic
And the meadow kindly page.
Let me dream as of Old by the river
And be loved for the dream Away,
For a dreamer lives forever,
And a toiler dies in day.

a Bargain Day.
A clergyman. anxious to introduce
some new hymn books. directed the
clerk to give out notice in church in
regard to them Immediately after the
sermon The clerk, however, had no
tice of his own to give with reference
to the baptism Of infants. Accordingly
a the close of the sermon he announc-
ed: All those who have children they
wish baptized please send in their
names at once" The clergyman, who
was deaf. supposing that the clerk was
giving out the hymn book notice, i'm
mediately arose and said, And I want
to say for the benefit OF those who
haven't any that they may be obtained
from me any day between 3 and 4
O'clock; the ordinary little ones at Is
cents and special ones With red backs
at 25 cents each"

no one notices him. and he only pleases
by the mouth OF the actors. I never

them that they have.
