Medicine Free in Every Case Where
II Falls to Relieve

Neglect or pessimism, we believe, is
the greatest enemy the public has
to contend with when applied to the
loss or recovery of health. Practic-
ally every case of consumption might
have been cured If hope had been
maintained and proper treatment had
been resorted to at the first symptom
of the disease. Until the advanced
stage is reached consumption is cura
Bile. Catarrh is responsible, we be
lieve, for many cases of consumption.

How much of Monday do you spend
at the wash-tub7 Far too long if you wash
clothes any way except the Fels-Naptha
way. One of the greatest blessings of
Fels-Naptha soap is its quick action. When
you use Fels-Naptha, half hours soaking
in cold or lukewarm water will thoroughly
loosen the dirt. While the clothes soak
you are free to do other work Then rub
lightly, rinse and the clothes are ready for
the line.
Fels-Naptha soap robs Monday of it's
drudgery. But it must be used the

DENVER ASSEMBLY
 COMES TO A CLOSE

Denver, May 29.-The one hundred and twenty-frst general assembly of the Pres byterian church closed today after a quiet session in which routine matters were disposed of and vote of thanks eX- tended to Moderator Barkley and the of ficials of the body. The minority report of the committee on polty recommend ing the resolution introduced by Dr. Jos eph A. Vance of Chicago that the re- auction of representa- tives in the assem- ply be made on a basis of church mem- bership instead of the number of min isters was adopted. The proposition will be sent back to the presbyteries for ac- ton. Should it be accepted the presby teries will be further asked to ratify the proposition that 6000 communicants be the basis of such computation
 Atlantic City was decided upon as the place of next meeting.
 An interesting feature of the days pro ceedings arose when the committee on rolity practically dismissed James and Alexander Waite missionaries in China, because they had criticised the worldli- ness of other missionaries, who, 1t seems, did nothing more than play tennis. The Waite brothers were advised in the re- port which was adopted by the assem- bly to seek other fields of service.

HUNT FOR CONVICT
 FINALLY STOPS

Memphis, May 29-(Special)- )-Gov- ernor Noel of Mississippi has called in his troops and called off his dogs from the hunt after Tom Atkinson, the es capped convict Twenty five years ago Atkinson came to Senatobia, Miss, stranger and poor, but while looking for work he made a friend or so, one of them being Joe Winn. Vim took Atkinson to- picnic near Senatobia and there Vim saw an enemy, Loren 20 McPherson. Winn, who was intox- icated, passed his pistol to Atkinson and told him to shoot. The command was obeyed and McPherson died
 Atkinson was sent to the penitentiary for life, and Vim, who was wealthy, for ten years, being pardoned in one year. Atkinson escaped at the same time in 1885. A search was made for him and then dropped and the convict was forgotten. He made his way to southern Mississippi, first working for others and afterward on a little place of his own. He led a decent and useful life for twenty odd years.
 few weeks ago some man who worked in or served as a guard at the prison recognized Atkinson and notified Governor Noel, who at once commanded search by the sheriffs officers. At kinson abandoned his growing erops and made his way into the canebrakes When Governor Noel called out a< en- tire company of the state guarH, be- sides adding few dogs, folks in the neighborhood recalled that Atkinson had been a sober, hard working farmer. whose record while among them was of the best. Their efforts at hiding At kinson were so successful and so open that Governor Noel today called off the hunt

ON THE VICTORIA NYANzA.
Electric Lighted Steamboats Furnish
 Good Meals.

Four steamers are now running reg ularly on the Victoria Nyanza. The Win nifred ard her sister boat, the Sybil, of 600 tons each, can spread canvas at need and have cabins and dining-rooms lighted and cooled by electricity.
 A double awning of canvas protects the passengers from the equatorial sun, but they are advised to wear hats even when under the, awning. The firemen and deckhands are half-naked negroes and the cook and steward are Hindus or half breeds.
 The English officers and few first class passengers are the only white peo- pie on board, but Arabs, Eurasian and Hindu traders and money lenders and half-breed traders. often formerly slavers. with Sikh, Somnaii and Egyptian soldiers are likely to be represented among the second-class passengers.
 The food is well cooked and the va- rety sufficient for the cost, which is about $1 65 a day, without extras. You can have a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit before breakfast at o'clock, when fish, eggs, bacon, toast, fruit mar malade, coffee and tea are served.
 At 1 o'clock a very substantial lunch of soup, meats, .currie with rice and des- sert, and a very hearty dinner at O clock in the evening certainly give the traveller all that he ought to eat in this climate. Nearly all the English travellers keep up the custom of taking a peg at or after lunch or dinner.
 A peg (Anglo-Indian slang) may mean a drink or any kind, but is usually a mixed drink, such as whisky. or brandy and soda water, claret cup, half and half the like. The lake water. duly cooled, is good enough for ''cold peg says writer in the National Mag azine and the tea and coffee are fairly excellent

CONVICTION FOR
 LABOR LEADERS

Chicago, May 29.-After 4e hours of all most constant wrangling the jury in the case of Martin B. Madden, M. J. Boyle and F A. Pouchot, labor leaders, today brought in a verdict of guilty, f1ning each of the defendants $500 Madden is the so- called labor "czaT' of Chicago.
 The long delay in reaching an agree ment is said to have been due to the in ability of the 12 men to find a common ground of punishment
 Madden all but collapsed when the yer dict was read. Boyle and Pouchot were more composed. Madden, when ap- poached by reporters as he was leaving the courtroom, was scarcely able to speak. His lips twitched spasmodically, but fin- ally he managed to state that he consid- cred the verdict bad thing for unionlsm.
 Reports of alleged attempts to influence the jury in behalf of the defendants were rife about the criminal court building dur ing the afternoon. States Attorney Wy man visited the grand jury room end later a large number of subpoenas were issued
 The case has been bitterly contested For years there have been rumors of ir- regularities in the calling and settling of strikes in Chicago. Last winter the ru- mors took concrete form and the indict- ment of Madden, Pouchot and Boyle fol- lowed. The three men were brought to trial on an indictment charging that they conspired to extort 5000, and did extort that sum, from Emil Klicka, through George S. Andres, an agent, in order to settle strike on the plant of the Joseph Klicka company. It was alleged in the states testimony that Andres, having re- ceived the money from Klicka, left it on a desk in Maddens private olive, Madden being present and choosing this method as a safeguard. Pouchot and Boyle are said to have assisted in obtaining the money. Arguments on a motion for a new trial will be heard by Judge McSurley on Iune Il.
