DEATH FOR THE MUTINIlIlRs.
10 MutinouS Sailors Succumb to Gan.
creme, Sunstr0lic and SuffOcati0n.

Rio Jancrio. Jan. 6.-AccOrding to
to-day's Jornal dc Commercio, Joao
Candido, leader of the recent revolt
in the navy, and forty-four other mu-
tineCrS have met sudden deaths Can
dido succumbed to gangrene while a
prisoner; twenty-siX of his associ-
atcs died from sunstroke while en-
gagged in repairing the fortress on
Cobras Island, and eighteen others
were suffocated in their cells in the
prison on Vile Gainon Island.
When the latter Of the two recent
naval revolts in Brazil was put down
three weeks ago, it was announced
that the mutinous sailors had been
sent to States remote from Rio ia
metro, where they would be employed
in the construction of highways and
railroads. The mutineers had sur
rendered and it was officially an
nounced that the disorders were at
an end.
Since that time comparatively lit
tie news has been gotten ont Of the
Brazilian capital, but there have been
persistent rumors Of disturbances in
the State Of Para, on the north coast,
due to political dissatisfaction. Riot
ing is said to have occurred at Sara,
but confirmation or denial from the
government are lacking.

from Atlanta Jail.

Atlanta, Jam 5.-Thrce soldiers
stationed at Fort MCPHERSON, who
visited the Fulton county jail, left

the convicted wife murderer, and
four companions, sawed their way to
Withrow in statement made to-

to Harry Langdon, one OF the jail
breakers, who was recaptured.
According to the prisoner, Lang

deserted from the army and a num-
ber Of men who served his old com
pany are now stationed at Fort Nc
Phcrson. They learned OF Lang
don's presence in jail and sought per-
mission to inspect the Jail on Sunday,
when they left the saws.
A. r. Knox, the New Orleans man,
known as the drug store bandit"
one OF the recaptured men, to-day
mutinied and attacked the iailer
with piece of water pipe, which he
had wrenched loose from the floor Of
his cell. He was badly beaten before
being subdued. The break in the
pipe Hooded the entire east wing Of
the Jail.
Chas. Sutton, the last of the iail
birds, was captured to-day near
Stockbridge, about 80 miles from At
lanta, and returned to the Fulton

There are three hundred thousand

twice as many Southerners as there

and more than five times as many

LABOR AGENT (?) PULLED.
Told Negroes in Columbia Could Get
Better Wages in Florida.

Columbia, JAM GA case out of
the ordinary run of criminal pro-
ceedings was reviewed Wednesday
afternoon by Magistrate Herbert
Frost. AS the result Of the prelimi-
nary, Henry Samuels, colored, was
bound over to higher court, where
he will be tried on the charge of
soliciting labor without license.
This Is known as the immigration
agent law, and it requires the solici-
tor to have license, which costs
$500a year, in each county in which
he operates.
Samuels Is Florida negro, but
fourteen years ego he lived in Co
lumbla. l.. r.. Wilds, Of Eau Claire,
is the prosecutor. He charges that
SamNcls cndeavored to get other ne
groes to return to Florida by telling
them that wages were very nigh
there
=. A. McMaster is Samuels's at
torney. The defence is that Sam
uels returned to Columbia, not for
the purpose OF obtaining laborers, as
charged, but to visit his mother and
that he merely mentioned good
wages in Florida while oonvuIsina
with other negroes.
The negro will likely arrange bond
IN the sum of $500 Cor his release
from jail pending the trial.
The immigration agent statute was
enacted in 1891. The punishment,
upon conviction, IS sentence not
less than four months or more than
$500 or greater than $4,000.

HOW TO CURE RHEUMATISM
1t Is An Internal Disease And Re.

II ~ An AntcrnHl disease And Rcs
quires An Internal Remedy.
The cause of rheumatism and kindred
diseases Is an excess Of uric acid in tho
blood. To cure this terrible disease this
acid must be expelled and the system SO
regulated that no more acid will be
formed in excessive quantities. Rheuma-
tism is an internal disca"n and requires
an internal remedy. RUBBING with
Oils and Linimcnts WILL NOT CURE,
affords only temporary relief at best,
causes you to delay tho proper treat
ment, and allows the malady to get O
firmer hold on you. Liniments may easo
the pain, but they will no more cure
rheumatism than paint will change tho
fiber Of rotten wood.
Science has at last discovered q per-
feet and complete cure, which Is called
Rheumacide Tested in hundreds OF cases,
1T has effected the most marvellous cures;
we believe 1t will cure you. Rhcumacido
gets at the joints from the inside, sweeps
the poisons out of tho system, tones up
tho stomach, regulates the liver and
kidneys and makes you well all over.
Rheumacide strikes the root Of the dis
ease and removes it's cause. This splcn-
did remedy Is sold by druggists and
dealers generally at SOC. and 81 bottle.
In Tablet form at 25c. and soc. a package.

Thinning Ranks Are
Moving Toward East
Members of Grand Army Of Republic
Are on Way to Convention at
Rochester.

The movement of Grand Army Of the
Republic members through Omaha to the
annual encampment promises to be the
highest in years. IL is figured that this
is due to two causes, the first and princi-
pal one being that the veterans ranks are
thinning; even the youngest of them are
not able physically to stand the journey
and the week in camp. The second reason
is that this year the encampment is held
in Rochester N. Y, and to reach there
members from even this locality must
travel at least 1900 miles.
This year the Colorado and Wyoming
delegation will consist of about 100 men,
who will arrive in Omaha Saturday after
noon at 4:5O o'clock over the Union Pacific,
and at O'Clock, over the Milwaukee, will
leave for the east.
Saturday evening at $50 o'clock, the Bur-
lington will carry the Nebraska delegation,
the department commander and staff, the
Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic
and the members of the Womens Relief
corps. The party will occupy three sleep
ers
This year the delegation from Washing
ton TO the national encampment will con-
sist OF one lone member.
1t was expected that California would
send a large delegation and it was even
reported that a special train would carry
the veterans their purpose in a measure
being to boost for the Pan-American ex-
position to be held in San Francisco in
1915. Indications are that the idea has been
dropped, as no advices have been received
as to the movement of any special train
The southern portion of California has sent
one delegate who is now enroute over the
Santa Fe road
