MYSTERIES! The Nervous System the Seat of Life and Mind. Recent Wonderful Discoveries. • No mystery has ever compared with that of human life. It baa boon the leading subject of professional research and study in all ages. But notwithstanding this fact It so not gener-

Recent diseovertM bare demonstrated that all the organs of the body are under the control of the nerve centers, located in or near the base of the brain, and that when these are deranged the organs which they supply with nerve fluid are also deranged. When it Is remembered that a eerloua Injury to thosplnal cord will cause paralysis of the body below the Injured point, because the nerve force la prevented by the Injury from reaching the paralyzed portion. It will be understood how the derangement of the nerve centers will cause the derangement of the various organs which they supply with nerve force. Two-thirds of chronic diseases are due to the Imperfect action of the nervo centers at the base of the brain, not from a derangement primarily originating la the organ Itself. The great mistake of physicians in treating these diseases is that they treat the organ rather than the nerve centers which are the cause of the trouble. Du. Franklin Miles, the celebrated specialist.,has profoundly studied this subject for over 20 years, and has made many Important discoveries in connection with it, chief among them being the facts contained In the above statement, and that the ordinary methods of treatment are wrong. All headache, dizziness, dullness, confusion, pressure, blues, mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, St. Vitus dance, etc., are nervous diseases no matter how caused. The wonderfulsuccess of Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine is due to the fuct that 1 t<s based on the foregoing principle. Dr. Milks’ Restorative Nervine is sold by all druggists on a positive guarantee, or sent direct by Dr. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind., on receipt of price, $1 per bottle, six bottles for $5. express prepaid. It contains neither opiates nor dangerous drugs. Boid by ail Druggists, " SPECIAL NOTICE.

SUGAR! SM! SUGAR! Forcing Correspondents to Talk Opposed by Senator Hill, INQUIRY FOOLISHLY BEGUN. That’* What He Thinks About It and Advises the Committee to Call Senators If It Wants to Get at the Question Di-rectly-Citing Witnesses For Punish ■■ent—Unpublished Testimony. Washington, May 80.—Sugar, sugar stock, sugar campaign contributions and assertions of newspapers with relation to sugar and the tariff was the absorbing theme in the senate yesterday. Proceedings opened with a bont over the Hawaii resolution, which was succeeded before being disposed of with the regular tariff bill. This was interrupted by a partial report of the sugar investigating committee, which recited the evidence adduced from correspondents and their refusal to answer certain questions. The committee recommended that (under the law of 1857, which provides for punishment of witnesses who refuse to answer questions put by a congressional committee) the president of the senate certify to the district attorney the fact of such refusal by Correspondents Edwards, Shriver and Walker, to the end that they may be proceeded against. Senator Hill objected to the report, but the vice president held that it was privileged and 1 refused to allow any resolutions regarding correspondents to be introduced. The Senate Smiled Audibly. Mr. Hill proceeded to discuss the questions involved in the decision. He argued that the senate could not lose jurisdiction simply because a committee made a report; that it still had a right to recommit the report and if recommitted in law it was as if the report had never beefl made. He had no personal interest in the investigation. He thought it proper enough to investigate the charges of attempted bribery, but he doubted the wisdom and propriety of this proseeding. Whether newspaper men told the truth, or ever told the truth, was a question which could keep the senate .busy until the end of time. The senate smiled audibly at this statement, but it lead to a very interesting debate between Mr. Hill and Mr. Allen (Neb., Pop.), a member of the bribery committee. Mr. Allen interrupted Mr. Hill to say it was not the truthfulness of the correspondent that the committee was charged to investigate; it was whether attempts had been made to bribe senators; whether the sugar trust had made large political contributions tor the purpose of influencing legislation, and whether senators had been speculating in sugar stocks. He asked Mr. Hill if he contended that the senate had no right to investigate the charge that senators had speculated in sugar stocks. Question of Morals. “Not exactly,” replied Mr. Hill. “But I have grave doubt if a senator should come before a committee and refuse to answer questions relating to his private business, whether the committee could compel him to do so.” “Does the senator believe a senator could invest in sugar stocks without that investment influencing his vote?” inquired Mr. Allen. “The senator compounds the legal question,” replied Mr. Hill, “with the question of propriety. A senator who speculates in sugar stock violates no law.” "But,” interrupted Mr. Allen, “it would not be more proper for a senator to invest money in any enterprise to be affected by his vote than it would be for a judge on the bench to render a decision in a case in which he v.’as interested? This question of public morality goes to i the foundation of the integrity of the government,” “A senator has a legal right to do what is not prohibited.” “A legal,” returned Mr. Allen, “but no moral right?” Speculating In Sugar Not a Crime. “One question at a time,” said Mr. Hill. ' “He would have as much right as a senator who, being an owner of silver mining property, would vote on the sili ver question. If, pending action on the ' sugar schedule, a senator would speculate in sugar it might be act of impropriety, but it would not constitute a crime. If the committee desired to get at the facts why did it not call the senators whose names have been connected with these charges instead of persecuting newspaper men who had no personal knowledge and whose information was obtained from confidential sources? ” . “But,” interjected Mr. Allen, “if the questions asked the newspaper men were relevant they should not be exempt from testifying.” “Why call the newspaper men instead of the men themselves?” retorted Mr. Hill. Mr. Gray, chairman of the committee, here interrupted to compare the investigation to a coroner’s inquest and wanted to know of Mr. Hill if a witness having made a statement that he had heard that one man had been killed by another could refuse to give his authority. Call All the Senators. Mr. Hill parried. A trial in court, a legal investigation, he said, was a vjry different thing from a congressional inquiry. There eyewitnesses were wanted. “That is just what we want,” said Mr. Gray. “Well, you are goings a long way ■ around the horn to look for them,” retorted Mr. Hill with some irony. “How are we to get them?” “Call the senators. That is the best 1 way.” “How are we to tell who the senators are?” asked Mr. Allen. "If you don’t know.” said Mr. Hill, with greatlemphasis, "call them all. So long as you have foolishly, as 1 think, entered upon this investigation it is your duty to exhaust it.” Hill’s Appeal Tabled. Mr. Hill declared that if a newspaper man had made a statement reflecting on his honor or integrity and should go before the committee and testify that he had no personal knowledge of the truth of the charge, he (Mr. Hill) should in- ; gist on being the next witness. I [ Mr, Hill then explicitly stated the

ally known that the seat of life Is located in the upl per part of the I spinal cord, I near the bane lot the bra in, > and so sensll tlve is thia portion of the nervous system that even the prick of a needle will cause instant death.

grounds of his appeal, denying the right of the vice president to certify the facts to the district attorney. After some wrangling Mr. Harris moved to table the appeal, and it was carried. Mr. Hill then offered a resolution that the facto should not be certified until the senate had taken further action. The chair said it would go over. Mr. Harris objected, claiming the resolution could not go over, but the chair did not alter the ruling. Consideration of the lumber schedule was resumed, and Mr. Aden's amendment to place all building material on the free fist was pending when adjournment was taken to Thursday. UNPUBLISHED EVIDENCE. Extract* From the Stories Told Before the Investigating Committee. Washington, May 30.—1 n the report to the senate on sugar investigations the committee cited some unpublished testimony, among which was Mr. Edwards’ relation of a story which he credited to H. W. R. Hoyt, ex-speaker of the Connecticut legislature, now dead, to the effect that there was a scheme behind the proposed restoration in Hawaii and that it had been discussed by President Cleveland, Mr. Havemeyer and Mr. Benedict during a pleasure excursion on the latter’s yacht. Where Hoyt got the information he did not know, but had the impression that it had been given him by some of the party. He also testified that common report was that Stephen B. Elkins was inter ested in the trust and that Gorman and he, being relatives, had business interests in common. Also that Senator Brice was closely related to H. L. Terrell of the trust. He did not recollect his informant as to the $500,000 campaign contribution. It w*as common report. Edwards said, that Senator McPherson said before the finance committee that the Democratic party was preparing to stab the men who had saved it. Senator Caffery’x Statement*. Senator Caffery’s testimony was given, in which he denied that he had had conferences with trust representatives and that Havemeyer looked over his shoulder as he wrote the sugar schedule. He had been introduced to Havemeyer in the capitol. He had a conference with him at Senator Brice’s some weeks before the finance reported a specific schedule, when Havemeyer argued for ad valorem duties. Several other senators Were present—White, Hill, Gorman and others, but Havemeyer met none es them save himself. Ex-Congressman Lefevre denied Edwards’ letter concerning a Sunday meeting a the capitol and that he was employed by a trust. Os Joe Rickey, whom Walker had mentioned as a go between, Mr. Lefevre said he had once seen Rickey with Mr. Vest and in a little while go with Mr. Reed or Mr. Terrell of the trust to a quiet spot and talk. He had also seen Rickey around the finance committee doors. New Albany Physician Arrested Far Having a Corpse In Charge. New Albany, Ind., May 30.—Dr. G. W. Greeham is under arrest charged with murder. Monday afternoon he drove to Louisville with Mrs. Carrie O’Donnell and Mrs. Donergan, having in the same vehicle a young girl whose name he gave as Mamie Smith. He sought admission for the girl in the city hospital, but the authorities found that she was dead, the result of criminal malpractice. It is the supposition that she died while the carriage was still on the Indiana side, and that the trio drove to several points before taking the body to the hospital. After leaving the body Dr. Gresham returned to New Albany, where he was arrested. His companions were not molested. , Some years ago Dr. Gresham was charged with the murder of Cyrus Graves, but he was acquitted on the ground of self-defense. Mr. Graves’ little daughter died of typhoid fever. Dr. Gresham was the attendant physician and Graves charged that his ignorance caused his daughter’s death. lu his rage he assaulted the doctor, aud the latter cut him to death with a razor.
