Politicians all over the state were surprised at the election of two Re publican representatives in Newtown. Newtown was supposed to be as firmly welded to the Democracy as Texas. You would have to go back to 1853 to find parallel when both Democra- tic representatives were beaten. It is nearly a quarter of a century since even one Republican was successful. Bridgeport Post.

$4,000 HANGS ON
FOUR MISSING MEN

NEW YORK, October 13.-Unless
the Rev John G. Fitzgerald
pastor of st. Stephens Roman Catho-
lie church, Brooklyn, can learn the
present residence of four former par
ishioners, or show by indisputable evil
dence that they are dead, his church
will lose $4,000 For four years the
priest has searched diligently for
some cleW to their movements, but
his efforts have not met with success.
Seveteen years ago, the four men
now being sought were selected, with
six others, as subject for life insur-
ance policies In which St Stephens
Church was to be named as benefi-
ciary They were NJ. S. Troy, ]. M.
White, S. p Gibson and c. G. Brown.
Policies on the twenty-year pay
ment plan were taken out on the ten
young men. The policy-hOlders were
not expected to pay any part of the
premium, but all agreed not to leave
the parish without giving notice of
any change of residence. For seven
years trace of them has been lost
Not knowing whether the four were
living or dead the church has con-
t1nued to pay the premiums on the
policies. The amount needed is 81, 900
year, which makes total of S34,-
600 that has been paid on them since
they were taken out seventeen years
ago

INCOMING COTTON

The greater share of cotton arriving
yesterday was for sale around quota
tons, or lie of a cent higher, and
found buyers ready to take it. The
demand was somewhat in excess of
the cotton offerings, the bulk of the
stock being held at cents for the
best. Quotations are unchanged.
though a slice of the cotton turned
loose yesterday went at a fractional
advance over these figures. The re-
ceipts for the day were POI bales and
the sales 234.
The New York market opened 2 to
5 points lower and for a time held

afternoon the list eased off, but the
close was several points up from the
lowest. 1 point lower for October and
2 to 5 points lower for other posi-
lions, as compared with the final for

THIS BARON" WAS
A PERFECT LULU
Soldier of Fortune Who
SwindIed in Two Lands.

st. Souls, Mo, Oct 13-Erstwhile
friends and victims of The Baron. 3"
whose meteoric career while United
States Army private reached into
wealthy corners of st. Louis society
and terminated with his desertion
from the army year ago, will be
interested in news of the baron
which came to Jefferson Barracks
Wednesday. A New York detective
is at the post, not in quest of the
baron, who has long since flown,
leaving a dizzy trail of forged checks
and bad debts behind him, but to get
the barons ST. Louis record to free
a wealthy heiress in the Argentine
Republic from marriage contract
with a soldier of fortune who TALES
with the man who made lot of st.
Louisians believe he was an Aus
trian nobleman.
He has the barOn's photograph and
autograph and\the name in which he
enlisted, which is probably not his
right name and doesn't count for
much locally, as he was generally
called the baron by hi ST Louis
acquaintance.
The gist of the baron's St Louis
record is that, while he only ranked
as a private in the army, he was
captain at making a gentle touch" or
forging friends name to cash it.
Toward the last the baron even got
down to the level of a cheap thief
In Argentine, under the name of
Dr. Jacks, he married a wealthy
Spanish lady, after two months de-
serted her, taking with him $25, 900
of her money and diamonds In st.
Louis the baron was probably not
able to make so handsome a coup, but
he did well among a wealthy coterie
of Germans into whose good graces
he ingratiated himself by his educa-
ton. his polish and his cleverness.
To them his father was a nObleman
of high rank in the Austrian army
and his cousin was military attache
of the Austrian embassy at Washing
ton He had credentials which ap-
parently bore out these pretensiOns
1t was several months before his
friends suspected that his escutcheon
ought to be a checkerboard with
most of the squares black.
The baron claimed to be In this
country to learn English and in the
army to learn hospital methods. He
was a chemist and pharmacist, and
had no trouble getting a place in
the Hospital corps at the barracks.
He always wore his uniform around
town, but he kept a suite of rooms
at the Southern hotel in which to|
entertain his friends. He had al
swell automobile, in which he used
to bring parties of soldiers up from
the barracks and wine and dine them
royalty at the cafes.
The baron had not been gone long
when inquiries were received at the
barracks from prominent people in
the City of Mexico concerning a DR..
Jacks of st. Louis. They said he
opened a Doctors office in the MeXi
can capital and fleeced some wealthy
citizens. The New York detective
said he had succeeded in tracing the
Mexican DR.. Jacks to Argentine

decades of popularity, are numbered by

A good, honest, square deal medicine of
known composition is DR., PierCe'S Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t still enjoys an i'm
menSe sale, while most Of the prepara-
tiOnS that have come into prominence in
the earlier period of its popularity have
gone by the board and are never more

this long time popularity and that is to
be found in its superior merits When
once given fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, it's supe-
rlor curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence it has survived and grown in pop-
ular favor, while scores of less meritorious
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for a brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
For torpid liver with its attendant
Indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per,

tongue, with bitter taste loss of appetite
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility, nothing is so good as DR.

WHEN YOU GET FOUND OUT.
Chicago Herald.

Men may think that you are crooked,
that your ways are lawless ways,
But as long as no one proves it you
may win respect and praise;
They may wonder how the riches that
you have were ever gained,
There may be few transactions you
have never quite explained;
But you never will be lonesome; men,
though they are filled with doubt,
Still will come to fawn around you,
while you're not found out.
You may think, while all is hidden,
while the public does not know,
That you'll always be respected any
where you chance to go;
You may think, because men praise
you, having reason to suspect,
That the proof of all your SHINING
would have but small effect
You are terribly mistaken; all your
friends will rise to shout
With derision as you pass them, when
YOU get found out
