THE LITTLE SICKNESSES

Which Grow Into Bis Ones. A little cold in tb<$ head is a trifle, hut If neglected and it hangs on from week to week and gets into the throat and lungs it Is no longer a trifle. It is then no longer a slight cold, but the begThnlng of chronic catarrh. Do not make the mistake of thinking you have no catarrh because the head and nose appear to be clear. If there is cough, tickling In the throat, hoarseness or a sense of oppression In the chest you have throat and bronchial catarrh. If the appetite is poor, nausea, gagging and disgust for food, especially in the morning, you have catarrh of the stomach. The surest and safest treatment for every form of .catarrh is an internal remedy, which acts especially on the blood and mucous membranes. Such a remedy Is the new catarrh cure, sold everywhere by druggists under name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a medicine in pleasant, convenient tablet form and containing ail the best and latest specifics for catarrh, whether located In nose, throat, bronchial tubes or stomach. Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets are composed of Sanguinarla, guaiacol. red gum and similar antiseptics which destroy the germs of catarrh In the blood, and no ci.e who suffers from any torm of catarrh and has seen the uselessness of spr.iydouches and powders will ever go back to them after once trying so convenient, pleasant and harmless a remedy as 8tu art’s Catarrh Tablets, and one whlen give* relief In so short a time Evan in cases where catarrh has affected the senses of smell and hearing, these tablets accomplish a cure because the blood being cleansed of catarrhal germs, the mucous surfaces of the nose and throat no longer clog up the respiratory passages with cstarrbal secretions. All druggists sell full-sised treatments of Btuart s Catarrhal Tablets for the nominal price tf 60 cents, snd the regular ctily .use of them will effectually curs this troublesome and dangerous disease.

MERCHANTS ALL FAVOR IT

UNIFORM STREET DECORATION DURING THE HOLIDAYS.

Expressions from a Number of Business Men Approving . the Plan. A number of merchants who were asked to-day whether they favored a uniform and systematic plan for decorating the sidewalks of Washington, Pennsylvania and other down-town retail streets during holiday week expressed themselves as heartily favoring the pish. A few of them spoke as follows: Henry Kahn—It will be a Rood advertisement for holiday week. It will bring thousands of persons down-town to see the beautiful decorations and the illumlnatlone, if the scheme is properly carried out. New York Store—A uniform system ot decoration, something to Induce persons to come down-town in the evening, will be'a good thing. There is no call, however. for any very elaborate and expensive plan of decoration. Patrick J. Ryan—Heartily In favor of it Let It be uniform, and the contract price be shared pro rata by all who get the benefit of it. Let It be systematic and artistic. Leopold Strauss—It will be a good advertisement of the business way we do things in this city, and will be an attraction to visitors, as well as to our home people. Merchants’ National Bank—If the merchants on the street want It, we shall certainly be for It. Bros nun Brothers—We are In favor of It. K&ntrowitz Bros.—We certainly favor anything that will add to the beauty and gaiety of holiday week. George W. Sloan—It will give a pretty effect to the street, and we favor It if entered Into by merchants generally. The H. Lleber Co.—If It is entered Into by all, we shall have our part in 1L Paul H. Krauss—If we put up money for It, I want it to be understood that a few of us will not bear all the burden of expense. There -are persons on this street who are agents for proprietors who do not live here and who get the benefit of our public spirit, yet never give up a cent. Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company—We are heartily in favor of a sidewalk decoration, if properly done. Bliss & Swain—It will liven up the street during the holidays, especially at night. We are for 1L Bowen-MerrUl Company—If other merchants favor a general plan of sidewalk decoration we shall. Saks & Co.—The Idea is a good one if it is systematically carried out and the display Is general. Charles H. Badger—I am always in favor of decorating for holiday week. ' H. S. Tucker—I shall be In favor of It if others are. George R. Popp—Whatever the majority does, Popp will do. It will be a good thing if properly carried out. A. J. Treat—Such a plan of decoration would add greatly to the interest of the week. I am in favor of it. Iliff Stationery Co —We favor it. The streets should be brightened up for the holiday time. John Wimmer—Let us have the sidewalk decorations, by all means.

DIVORCES Entirely Too Comn\or\. V

Judge Leathers Discusses the Subject at a WeeU ing of the tfound table at St. Paul's Church

Observations from Experience with Divorce Suits During Ws term on the Bend)**

The “Round Table,” at St. Paul’e Episcopal church, last night, discussed "Divorce and Its Legal Status." James M. Leathers, Judge of the Superior Court, was present by invitation and spoke, telling of his experience in dealing with divorce suits. Judge Leathers said that In the two years he has been on the bench nearly 500 divorce cases have come before him for hearing. He said that be had refused to grant about seventy-five of this number. "It seems to me," said he, "that there is in Indianapolis a sort of ‘divorce colony,* the members of which are always figuring In our divorce courts. These perrons marry, quarrel, and in a year or two are suing for divorces. In nearly every case It develops that persons of this class who come into court have been previously divorced. I have made a ruling that, where It Is possible, the defendant must appear In court. This rule has been a good thing. It prevents In a way collusion between husband and wife.” Judge Leathers said that women apply more frequently for divorce than men. Most of the applicants for divorce alleged cruelty and brutal treatment, particularly when women are the complainants. Habitual drunkenness, Judge Leathers said, is not often alleged as ground for divorce. “I am sorry to say," said Judge Leathers, “that there Is a tendency on the part of the members of the bar to regard Incompatibility of temper as ground for divorcing two people. The lawyers seem to think that If two people can not get along—can not be reconciled —why, the best thing to be done 'Is to separate them legally, and let each go different paths. I do not look upon Incompatibility of temper as ground for a divorce. The modern Idea of marriage is not sacred enough. Marriages are too easy. I find that a very large per cent, of marriage failures began in magistrates' oiflces. The solemnity of a church or home wedding Is effective. Witness and home ties go a long ways in keeping a couple together, even It they are not of the most congenial character." Referring to the social conditions of persons who most frequently appear In divorce cases. Judge Leathers said: "Most divorce suits are filed, of course.

by persons In the lower walks of life. People of refinement, culture and social standing rarely ever figure in divorce proceedings. When they do there are always efforts to suppress the facts. The standing of the couple always attracts more or less attention In sensational newspapers. Such papers, by reporting in detail divorce court proceedings, actually, in my opinion, encourage the filing of divorce suits. I do not think divorce court proceedings should be

printed In detail. But to go back to the

of these people do

not seem to have any pride, social stand-

lower classes. Many

ing or sense of personal dignity. Scandal does not worry them. They rush Into court for divorces with as much ease as they would sue for a few dollars. They have a poor conception of the sacredness of marriage ties; look upon marriage as purely a civil contract, to be broken tf the parties to the contract do not agree on everything. There is no sense of shame. I formerly believed that every person had some degree of pride—even in any walk of life. Children are great ties to hold married couples together. Where there Is Incompatibility of temper and no children, a divorce suit is pretty sure

to come.

"As to alimony, I have found that when a fellow Is so dissolute that he will not support his wife, he will manage In some way to evade the payment of alimony. An order from the court, of course, is more effective than a mere Judgment for alimony, but when the average man does not want to pay alimony, he can generally escape doing so, and the courts are werless. A uniformity of divorce laws the various States would be a good thing. I seriously doubt whether a general law on divorce could be enacted without encroaching on the privileges of the several States. Lawyers and Judges have discussed the advisability of a general divorce law. The first divorce law in Indiana was enacted In 1S24, another was passed In 1862, and the present one in the seventies. The law of 1852 made Indiana notorious. The State was looked upon as a Mecca for people who wanted divorces. I remember that when I was young and was studying law in the office of A. C. Harris, he one day got a letter postmarked London, England. Mr. Harris Immediately had visions of a big estate and large fees. To his surprise the letter was from a wealthy Englishman, who said he had been unfortunately mar-

Fn°

rled and wanted a divorce. He said that he had heard about Indiana—that the cost was no consideration. The letter closed by asking Mr. Harris to send the divorce degree C. G. D. This is no oke, but an actual occurrence, showing iow notoriously bad had become the reputation of the State. Too Many Wrong Marriages. Discussing marriage. Judge Leathers said: "The seat of nearly all divorce suits la at the marriage ceremony. As long as almost anybody, save an insane person, can obtain a license and be married, we will have divorces. Some sort of a commission or court of inquiry might remedy the divorce evil—a dire evil, but one which I recognise under present laws as a necessary evil. Yet, there Is another phase jof this question. If we prevent certaiiy people, because of physical imperfections, financial conditions, social or other relations, from marrying, they will love and live together In many cases. The physical Imperfections would be found largely In persons who have very little regard for marriage as a church institution. I am afraid a barrier to marriage would lead to immorality— would encourage bad morals among the lower classes. The civil law relating to marriages is one thing—church law is another. The court looks at divorce from the legal side of the question. I stti sometimes astonished that society and church do not frown down the guilty parties in divorce suits. "Social ostracism will do more than anything else to stop divorce suits among cultured people. But social ostracism will not affect the lower classes, who nave little. If any, pride. Too often the guhty party in a divorce case is treated with as much consideration in society as the innocent person. There should be a uniformity of laws regarding the right of the guilty parties in divorce cases to remarry. So long as the guilty person can go to another State and remarry, we will have evils of the worst kind, collusions, etc.. In divorce proceedings. I think that the guilty person in a divorce case ought not to be allowed to remarry, at least within a certain period—say five years. If people realized that they could not remarry’ as soon as the marriage tie had been severed, there would not be so many divorce suits.”

MONUMENT DEDICATION.

State Officers Want President McKinley Invited. Speculation concerning the ceremonies Incidental to the dedication of the Soldiers’ Monument has begun, and the suggestion has been made by some of the State officers that President McKinley be invited to come to this city for the exercises. The monument will be dedicated sometime during the session of the Legislature this winter, and State officers say that, with the presence of the President, and the law-making body of the State, the ceremonies could be made highly Impressive. Rudolph Schwartz, who has been 111, has resumed hls work on the cascade groups, and an additional workman from Germany has arrived to assist In placing the bronze work In position.

Stock Yards People Think It Just the Thing. The proposition to hold a great horse and cattle show to open the projected auditorium and commercial museum meets with the approbation of the stockyards interests. Smith Graves and George Beck, who read in The News of the scheme, said this morning that such a building is what the live stock Interests have been needing here for years. They said that if Indianapolis citizens subscribe the stock to purchase the site for a building, the live stock men of the city and State will take care that the building has an auspicious dedication. Mr. Graves, who visited the great cattle exhibition in Chicago, said that the immense Dexter Park pavilion did i.ot nearly accommodate the crowd that visited the show, and he believes that Indianapolis, with its central location and transportation facilities, can get a larger show and a larger crowd than Chicago. A meeting of stockmen and merchants of the city will be held in a few days to consider plans for securing the ground, and this will be followed by a meeting of stockmen and manufacturers of the State. It Is proposed to give free space to manufacturers to exhibit their products during the sixty days’ live stock show.

TO CATCH WHOLESALERS.

City Charter May be Amendedi by the Legislature. A bill Is to be Introduced In the next Legislature to amend the city charter of Indianapolis so that wholesale dealers in malt liquors may be compelled to pay an annual license fee. The city ha* made several efforts to collect this tax, the last being the passage of the ordinance which has recently been — declared Invalid by Judge Daly, of the Police Court The city attorney and other city officers had some misgivings as to Whether the ordinance would stand, but decided to try it. It was planned to catch brewers and wholesale dealers alike. The brewers are willing to pay, but object to being taxed as long as the wholesalers, who are virtually brewery agents, escape. The city charter gives authority to tax breweries and brewery agencies, but a former ordinance was made Ineffectual, the agencies having proved that they were not agencies, but wholesale houses. Under the city charter wholesalers can not be taxed. Six of the eleven breweries and agencies In the city have pafd the annual license fee of $1,000 assessed under the last ordinance, but since Judge Daly gave hls decision the others have refused to pay, and the money may have to be refunded to those who have paid.

Bedell’s Smoke Consumer. Building Inspector Bedell says he has nothing to ponceal In the fact that he is the patentee and part owner of the Shoemaker smoke consumer, except that he ■was not ready as yet to divulge his plans. He says he has the opinion of the assistant city attorney to sustain him in. his position that there Is no violation of the city charter in his being interested In a smoke consumer, though he is the officer charged with enforcing the smoke ordinance. He has no authority, he says, to compel the use of any particular smoke consumer, and would not urge hls own If he had the authority. He has sold none of the consumers, he says, and does not contemplate selling any In this city. Hls plan is to put in two or three gratis In this city, and to sell consumers elsewhere, or, perhaps, when satisfied that hls device Is perfect, to resign his office and organize a stock company to manufacture consumers. He contends, however, that he would have a perfect legal right to sell the consumers now to whomever he pleased, except to the city. City Comptroller Johnson says he thinks there would be nothing Illegal In Mr. Bedell’s selling hls consumers, so long as he does not sell them to the city, but he questions the propriety of the building inspector enforcing the smoke ordinance and selling his own consumer at the same time.

Street Sweeping Next Year. City Engineer Jeup Is at work on the street sweeping specifications for next year, hoping to have them ready for the Board of Works to-morrow, so that bids may be advertised for.' About two miles and a half of improved streets will be added to the list of those swept this year. This year eighty-eight miles were swept. The appropriation this year was $60,000. The appropriation for next year is $55,000.

Increase in Number of Fires. Fire Chief Barrett, in looking over the records to-day, found that there have been Just 957 fires thus far this year, exactly the number of fires In the entire year of 1S99. The Increase, he says, is due to the fact that there are more fires caused by natural gas, that the city has grown, and that the fire-fighting facilities have not kept pace with this growth. WANTS MORE WATER. Northern Insane Hospital’s Needs Specified in Report to Governor. The biennial report of the Northern Indiana Hospital for the Insane, at Lo^ansport, filed with the Governor to-day, reiterates the need of an additional wat(er supply at the hospital. The report preceding the present one also called attention to the Inadequate water supply. The trustees say that from the beginning the water supply qf this hospital has been Insufficient, and that at no time has there ever been enough to sustain, in addition to current uses, a single standard fire stream. They also call attention to the fire at the institution last March, which consumed the

hospital laundry.

The board asks for the sum of $46,000 specific appropriation, to be applied to water-works, refrigerators, farm buildings, store house, bakery, workshops, laundry, cement floors, repair of chimney, irrigator, roof and floors. The regular appropriation Is $135,000 for mainten-

ance and $7,600 for repairs.

The report shows that there were 731 Ir.mates In the hospital October 31, of whom 376 were men and 356 were women.

Proposed City Loan Office.

The committee appointed by C. E. Coffin, president of the Commercial Club, to devise ways and means for a city loan establishment, met at the club this afternoon. The committee consists of Dr. C. B. McColloch, V. T. Malott, Charles W. Moores, W. J. Richards and one other member yet to be appointed. The committee will make certain recommendations to the directors of the club, and it Is probable steps will be taken to organize a company to establish a loan Institution. Mr. Coffin favors the scheme, aud the charity and church organizations of the city are friendly to It, believing that

many poor people will be

believing benefited.

A RABBI’S MISSION.

He Comes to America to Study the American Jew. [Special to The Indianapolis News.] WASHINGTON. D. C.. December 4— There is a feeling among the old world Jews that American environment Is not conducive to that reverence for sacred things which is one of the principal tenets of the Jewish faith. The American Jew, in other words. In the mad race after wealth, Is suspected by hls brethren across the water of neglecting the spiritual side of hls nature, and more especially of forgetting the history of hls people. Partly for the purpose of finding whether this is true, and if it is true of applying some remedy, there is now In the United States one of the most distinguished of European rabbis, Jacob David Wllovsky, said to be perhaps the most noted talmudist of hls day. He is now in Philadelphia,, where he will remain for a week or ten days, but before returning home it is his purpose to visit every large city in the country, East and West, which has any considerable Jewish population. He is to lecture on the Talmud, and seek by work amone the leading men of the race to bring about a spiritual awakening. If such a thing is as much of a need as he has been led to believe. At any rate, hls observations are to result in a book, to be written next year, In which he will describe at full length, for the benefit of the Jews of Europe, the condition of their brethren In this country. Rabbi Wllovsky s home Is In Slutzk. Russia, which has a Jewish population of 25,000. SOUTHERN INDUSTRIES. Convention at New Orleans will Try to Promote Them. NEW ORLEANS, December 4. — The Southern industrial convention opened here to-day, with a fine attendance. Many of the delegates reached here yestrday and last night, but the bulk of them came on the early trains to-day, including Gen. John B. Gordon, who Is to speak In behalf of Georgia, and Cardinal Gibbons, who has promised to speak during the convention. Thb convention Is a representative one, embracing men In every walk of industrial life in the South, and Including delegates not only from the South, but from every section of the country. The convention Is being held In Tulane Hall. In hls speech General Gordon said: "No politics, no sectionalism, but business." He wanted to say that whatever the people of the South had been In favor of in the past, they were no longer in favor of a narrow or contracted national policy. They were in favor of the Nicaraguan canal, of the open door in the Orient, of carrying their blessings to the benighted brown people of the East.

THIS IS WHY THE EMPEROR SNUBBED KRUGER. His Majesty Made a Mistake Five Years Ago, After the Jameson Raid. LONDON, December 4.—The English press continues to discuss Kruger's dismissal from Berlin, but refrains from saying what is in every one's mouth, namely, that the German Emperor owed England thi* act of reparation for hie Indiscretion five years ago in telegraphing a message of congratulation to Pretoria after the Jameson raid. It has been one of the commonest comments among Englishmen that the expectation of European Intervention Inspired by that dispatch was one of the main causee of the South African war. The German Emperor has made full amends, throwing a bucket of cold water on Kruger’s mission. There are suspicions entertained in diplomatic circles that the French government baited Kruger with the suggestion that it would follow the lead of the German Emperor, If he could be Induced to intervene, but there la no direct proof of this theory. What is more to the point is the obligation Incurred by the Foreign Office here to follow Germany’s lead in Chinese affairs when the Emperor has shown himself so useful an ally. This might be a serious obstacle to a Chinese settlement If the powers were not already divided and Germany disposed to make concessions for the sake of restoring harmony. England's obligation to the Emperor for timely services during the war in South Africa are so manifest that he will be In a position to claim Shan-Tung after due consultation with his ally, in accordance with the third article of the recent agreement.

Not at Home. Yours, F. Jospeh. LONDON, December 4.—"In response to a confidential inquiry as to whether Mr. Kruger would be welcomed here,” says the Vienna correspondent of the Dally Mail, “a polite reply was returned to the effect that Emperor Francis Joseph had made other dispositions for the next few weeks.” Mr. Kruger will not visit either Vienna or Rome.

THE NEGRO JIN JVIRGINIA. Senator Daniel Would Fix His Place in Politics. [Special to The Indianapolis New*.] WASHINGTON, D. C., December 4.— Virginia is soon to hold a constitutional convention, for the purpose of determining how to get rid of the negro us a factor in politics. Senator Daniel Is one of the leading spirits In the movement, and he Is anxious to have hls State escape the possible danger of a knock-out from the Supreme Court of the United States, such as may be given North Carolina and other States, on account of the "grandfather clause" in their new constitutions. It is said that the Senator has prepared a rough draft of an amendment, which Is to be submitted to the leading Democrats of the State in, advance of the meeting of the constitutional convention. It provides for exempting from disfranchisement all persons, or their descendants, who have served the State in time of war, and Its effect Would be to save the ballot for illlteratje ex-Confederates and their descendants. < Its provisions would be broad enough to admit the veterans of all wars, white and black, and Senator Daniel jhinks would steer clear of any objectioh the Federal Supreme Court may haVe to the North Carolina constitution qn account of the "grandfathex clause.”

Not satisfied with wrecking the lives of men and women, the demon of nervousness reaches out for the children. Cross words in the home warp the mind of the child; spasmodic correc-

stirs up rebellion; unreliable judgment does lasting injury. Dr. Greene’s Nerrura blood and nerve retnedv calms the nerves of mothers and fathers, and shows them the wrong they are doing. Perhaps the mother is sickly, perhaps In constant pain. Dr. Greene's Nervu ra

would set her promptly on the way to health.

Possibly the father hs.s

some chronic trouble and needs the strengthening and toning np that is found in this great remedy. Both father and mother may be

under great strain of. financial worry; if so, Nerrura will help them. It will give them calm judgment and assist them

over the rough places. Bringing up children

is a great responsibility; you can’t evade it, you must equip yourself for

it. You must keep yourself in a physical and mental condition to per-

form your duty. If you are ailing and nervous you cannot do this unaided, but with the help of Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy, great things can be done. Mrs. H. Silver, 142 Lewis St., How York Oily, says i “I was nervous for four years so that I could do nothing. I went to different doctors, but none couldhelp me. I read so much -in the papers about Dr. Greene’s Nervurm blood and nerve remedy that I thought I would try it. After the first bottle I felt relieved, so I used a couple of bottles more, and now I am all right again. I thank Dr. Greene’s Nervura for the good it did me. I also have two little girls who were sick, weak, and run down, to whom I gave Dr. Greene’s Nervura. It did them so much good that I cannot be thankful enough. It ... made them well and strong again, and they are now, thanks to this wonderful rwnodr. healthy and vigorous. Before I took Dr. Greene’s Nervura I could not eat or sleep. I could not do mr housework, but now I am like a different woman. I give this testimonial that other sufferers may read it and know the good Nervura did me and my children." Dr. Greene’s Nerrura will help yonr children. It is a purely vegetable preparation and helps Nature bring out the latent powers of the body and mind. Your children probably came into the world inheriting nervous tendency. Don’t let them go through your hard experience. Get yourself in trim and do the right thing for the children. The well-trodden way and the means are here, make use of them. If yon are not certain that Nermra alone is what you need, consult Dr. Greene. He will tell you at once, as your case is not hew to him. He has seen thousands jnst like it. He has helped them and he will help you. If you are at a distance and can’t call at Dr. Greene’s office, 35 West 14th Street, New York City, you can write him ail about it, and he will give you his advice in either case without charge, and confidentially.
