Following CornweIl's Silence on
That Riding on Passes
Charge in Campaign.

CHARLESTON, Oct. 3-Charging
that in his failure TO deny or attempt
to explain that he is riding about the
state upon railroad passes and Pull
man Company passes. John j. Corn
well has left no doubt in the minds
OF the people as to the sponsors Of
his candidacy for governor and the
organizations to whom he owes al
legiance," Governor Hatfield gave
further reply today to Mr.. Corn
wells statement at Huntington.
In his effort to hide from the
charge and to cover ii up. Mr.. Corn
well has convicted himself at the bar
OF public judgment" said Governor
Hatfield. in reference to Cornwel's
failure to even refer in the remotest
way to the accusation hurled at him
concerning his mercenary way Of
travelling over the state. The latest
statement OF the governor declares
that Cornwell attempted to ignore all
other issues and leave open only
tine size Of the audiences that heard
him speak at Madison last week"
Mr.. Cornwell in his statement at
Huntington last night declared that
ayers were trying to keep Governor
Hatfield off the stump. In reply the
governor brands this as the kind 81
Misrepresentation that Cornwell has
been resorting to in his whole cam
paign, and in this connection gives
out letters from Joseph H. Gaines,
chairman OF the Republican state
committee; Charles G.. Conman, sec
rotary of the Republican state COM
mittee, and Morgan Owen, chairman
of the speakers bureau OF the Re
publican state committee, in which
invitations were extended TO him ask

Republican ticket.

The public relief department in
Milwaukee reports an infirm woman
sent to that city by the poor COM
missioner Of Wisconsin town in
which she belonged. AS she had
never been In Milwaukee before and
had no claim on that community, she
was sent back. Later another town
in the state sent her to Milwaukee.
Again she was returned to her own
town. Thus four railroad fares were
paid out of the poor-rate to play
battle-door and shuttle-cock with a
iorlorn old woman physically unfit to
travel.

TIRED LOOKING WOMEN

Some women always wear a worn,
tired look. 1t is the outward sign OF
nervousness, neurasthenia perhaps,
with its characteristic symptoms Of
worry headaches and sleeplessness.
Overwork, grief, undue excitement,
the late hours and nervous strain of a
strenuous socisl season, lack OF out-of-
door exercise, any or all of these may
be responsible for the trouble but the
most common cause at this season of
the year is the grip.
Whatever the cause, If you feel the
need of more strength try the great
non-alcoholic tonic, DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. As the nerves get their nourish-
ment from the blood the treatment
must be directed toward building up the
blood. DR.. Williams Pink Pills act
directly on the blood and with proper
regulation of the diet have proved of
the greatest benefit in many cases OF
neurasthenia. A tendency to anemia,
or bloodlessness, shown by most neu-
rasthenic patients, is also corrected by
these tonic pills. Your own druggist
sells DR.. Williams Pink Pills or they
will be sent by mail on receipt of prize,
so cents per box; six boxes $3.50.

GOING AFTER MACMILLAN.
Steamer Denmark Chartered to Go Into
the Arctic.

New York, June 9.-The steamship
Denmark has been chartered to go to the
relief of Donald B. MaeMillan's Croker
Land expedition, it is announced by the
American Museum of Natural History.
Although Macmillan failed to find any
thing more than mirage where Croker
Land was supposed to be, officials of the
museum and other hackers of this ex-
petition believe he win bring back many
valuable records and specimens. The
Denmark win carry the second expedi-
ton sent to his relief since his departure
for the Arctic regions nearly three years
ago.
Macmillan is now supposed to be sew
eral hundred miles northwest of northern
Greenland, while members of the first re-
lief party are frozen in at Parker Snow
bay, $50 miles south Of Etah. II is hoped
the Denmark will be able to pick up the
party at Parker Snow bay and then pen
citrate to Etah, TO which place Macmillan
may have returned by the time the
steamer arrives there. The Denmark,
which is now at port in south Green
land, has been chartered from the Green
land Mining company.
