AMUSEMENTS. Enough war material to equip a detachment of artillery, cavalry and infantry is carried by the “Shenandoah” company, which will have the stage at English’s all next week. In the battle scene, where the repulse and rally of the Union troops is shown, with General Sheridan riding up at the head of the victorious army, the audience has an opportunity to smell powder and Join with the troops in celebrating the mimic victory. “Shenandoah” is one of the really great theatrical offerings of the season at English’s Opera House. Os all the war dramas that the stage has seen in the past decade, the most popular has been this work of Bronson Howard. "Shenandoah” is of itself a great play, telling a story of absorbing interest, and one which appeals to every patriotic citizen. The battle scene at the end of the third act is one of the most realistic presented in an American play. Batteries of artillery, companies of infantry and squadrons of cavalry are all brought into the action. At the beginning of the last act, which takes place in Washington, there is a grand review of the homeward-bound troops. Jacob Litt made the revival of “Shenandoah” as a theatrical contribution to the spirit of war times, giving it a production and a company of actors that rivaled even the original years ago. Its Chicago run during the summer was the first really big engagement at MeVicker’s Theater since the world’s fair, the piece playing in ten weeks to receips of nearly $90,000. The company is headed by Maurice Barrymore and Mary Hampton. The sale of seats will open Thursday at English's for the entire fair week, including matinees Wednesday and Saturday. The closing performances of “For Liberty and Love” will take place at the Park Theater this afternoon and evening. Tomorrow afternoon “Human Hearts” will be seen for the first time at the Park. Phil Hunt arrived yesterday to look after the advance work for “Tennessee’s Pardner," which comes to the Park next week. The cast of “Superba” this year contains many new names and many clever specialty people. The old piece is said to have been entirely rewritten. Artists have been engaged during the summer working out the many new features which the Hanlons have invented. Pantomime, as tne Hanlons do It, will be a good card for the many fair visitors. Seats go on sale to-morrow at the Pembroke. “Superba” will remain all week at the Grand. Robert Mantell, who plays at English’s Friday and Saturday, is again under the management of M. W. Hanley, for years the associate In New York of Ned Harri* gan, of “Old Lavender” iame. The secret of the success of Coley and Mamie Grant, the colored comedians now at the Empire, lies in the fact that they have not fallen into the usual error of giving an Imitation of white people's imitation of the negro. The humor and grace natural to the race is exhibited with apparent spontaneity. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY. Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Lambert left last evening for Lake Ontario, New York.

HOP ALE INTOXICATING. Indiana Ltqnor League's Showing to State Agricultural Board. The Indiana Liquor League, through its representatives, are at work with the State Board of Agriculture to prevent the sale of all kinds of liquor by unlicensed saloonists within a radius of the jurisdiction of the board. The members of the board have been undecided as to their right under the law until the liquor league representatives pointed it out to them. The matter which perplexed the fair officials was the question of whether the sale of “hop ale” came under the provisions of the law governing the case. The liquor people, however, showed by letters from the brewers that there is none of the so-called “hop ale” but what is intoxicating, the weakest of it containing 2 per cent, of alcohol. The liquor people say that the legitimate saloonists pay a heavy license for the privilege of selling their goods, and should be protected against itinerant vendors. The last Legislature passed a law governing the matter, and In a recent decision Judge Hackney, of the Supreme bench, held that the law prohibited the sale of all malt, vinous or spiritous liquors by any person unless supplied with a city, county and state license. A United States government license does not protect sellers of such drinks from arrest and prosecution, and the liquor league is prepared to show by the brewers themselves that “hop ale” is in fact nothing but a malt drink in the strictest sense of the term, and that it is altogether intoxicating, but not to the same degree of other grades of beer. The State Board of Agriculture has the right to close all unlicensed places where such drinks are sold, within a radius of a mile of the fair grounds, under a grant made by the Legislature at the time the board was organized. The members of the beard say they are willing and anxious to close up the objectionable places, but wish first to know their rights in the matter where “hop ale” is concerned. The liquor league will furnish all the evidence necessary to prove that “hop ale” comes directly under the head of “intoxicating malt liquors," and demonstrate to the board that in closing up the “temperance stands” where the drink is sold they can safely ignore the protests of the “hop ale” sellers who claim they are not selling beer. THE TEACHERS’ INSTITUTE. Professor Parsons’s Talk; on General Pedagogy. The teachers' Institute, which is in session in Room 2, Superior Court, was opened yesterday morning by prayer, and the teachers sang the “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” The majority of teachers in attendance are women, and yesterday afternoon there was a very large turnout. There was so much gay and stylish millinery in the room that the place looked like a flower garden. Yesterday morning Professor Parsons continued his talk on general pedagogy. He held that there is a science in ail education. To his way of thinking everything in the schoolroom has an educational value. Every teacher mu3t think for himself or herself and all knowledges must be gained by one’s own thinking. During the morning Professor Orr gave an exercise in music, showing the different systems taught by the different nations. Miss Kate Moran, of Terre Haute, gave another talk on languages. She believes it important that languages should be taught in the lower grades. Many children do not hear the best English at borne, hence they should be given an opportunity of hearing it in the schoolroom. Miss Moran believes that children should be permitted to do more talking in the schoolroom, not to each other, but in the way of an exerclcse. During the afternoon session Professor Parsons continued his morning talk, taking up a rew line of thought. He spoke of the conduct of the teacher and impressed the fact on the institute that the teacher who does wrong must necessarily lower himself in his own estimation. There was also a short talk in the afternoon by \V. A. Bell and a recitation by Mrs. Ida Thomas, who displayed considerable dramatic talent. She recited a humorous poem entitled “The Engineer Making Love.” This morning Prof. George T. Moore, of Harvard, win lecture on. "Nature Studies.” THIRD TIME THE CHARM. The Hopei, at Least, for Senby Oval To-Mght. Once again the patrons of cycle racing were disappointed by the failure of the “Plugger Bill” Martln-Harry Gibson paced race to come off at Newby Oval last night. But the weather man was again in ill humor, making it necessary to postpone the big event until to-night. The telegraph boys’ championship and the entire programme Will go oft in the regular order if it doesn’t rain. The pacemakers last night even went bo far as to try the quads and quints on the wet track, and although it would take singles in good style, the multicycle racing was dangerous, and the stars left the track company to make another date. The latter gamely decided to do or die, and will take a chance to-night, when every effort will be made to run off one of the best cards cf events that has been offered in the West. The stars and their thirty pacemakers will take another trip around the city in carriages and a taliy-ho to-day with a drum and fife corps as an escort. All tickets out will be good for to-night and the soldiers will be admitted free. Building; Permits. Giles Frazier, frame shop, 1217 South West street, $lO. C. H.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1898.

HELPED FIRE THE OREGON GEO. W. GOOD, OF THIS CITY, ON THE FAMOUS TRIP AROUND THE HORN. - ■ ♦ He Return* to Hi* Home on Davidson Street—A Test of the Great Ship's Speed. ♦ George W. Good, a broad-shouldered young man of twenty-five, who has rpent the last six months shoveling coal into the capacious furnaces of the government's prize battle ship, the Oregon, is visiting his parents, at their home on Davidson street, this city. The young man has been home four day's and has had a lively time of it eating meals with his relatives and telling them how the Oregon missed the fierce Spanish torpedo boat Temerarlo, and took part in the fight that put an end to the Spanish navy. Good went to California four or five years ago to take a position with a railroad company and when the Oregon sailed from San Francisco on March 19, he gave ud his job of firing a locomotive to take service in the engine-room of the battleship. “We all knew there was going to he war,” he said, “and I wanted to get into it. I feared if I joined the army, I wouldn't get into the fight, so when I learned the Oregon wanted some firemen I enlisted.” Good says the Oregon had about 350 people aboard when she left San Francisco and did not increase the number until Key West was reached. It required sixty firemen to handle the furnaces. When the Oregon left San Francisco she carried 1,800 tons of coal. Good says that while the people of the United States were losing sleep for fear the Oregon would fall into the hands of the Spanish torpedo boat her crew was sailing peacefully along unaware of the uneasiness of the public and ignorant of the declaration of war. However, Captain Clark, commander of the Oregon, was a cautious navigator and took no chances of a surprise. At Callao, Peru, the ship's crew first learned that the country was alarmed about the Oregon. The consul at that point cautioned Captain Clark to be on the alert for the Temerario. At Rio de Janeiro the men of the Oregon first learned of the Dewey victory. “We had a wild time that night,” said Good, “and the boys cheered themselves hoarse. The first lieutenant made a speech to the men and all that he said about what the Oregon would do if we got a chance, has happened. As far as I am concerned, I was never in the least alarmed about the ship after we left San Francisco. From what I know of Captain Clark 1 think he could have taken the battle ship and whipped anything in the Spanish navy alone. Clark is a fine man and everybody’ on the boat loved him. He always had a smile for the humblest Jackie and the boy’s W’ould have fought hard for him. After we left Rio de Janeiro, every man of the crew 'went to work to help the ship make the fastest possible speed, for we knew that the sooner we reached Key West the sooner we would get into real la sir.ess. Those firemen worked like Turks. Some of them who had ‘soldiered’ on the others went to work in earnest, and there was no more playing.” Good is enthusiastic in his praise of the Oregon’s conduct, during the naval battle at Santiago. He says it was the Oregon that fired the first snot of warning when the Cervera fleet made a dash to get out of the harbor. During the fight one fireman would work a half hour, and would then be relieved. Good says he saw’ a good deal of the fighting from the deck of the Oregon. At times the engine room thermometers registered l<jj degrees, and the men could not stand it there long at a time Good says the Oregon is the only battle ship that ever exceeded the speed made on her trial trip. This was done in a race witn a newspaper dispatch boat during the blockade of Santiago harbor. The Oregon mistook the dispatch boat for a Spaniard and chased the little craft for sixty miles until it was brought to with a shot from the big boat. On this chase the Oregon made a fraction over seventeen knots an hour. Good asserts that in the opinion of the Oregon's crew, Admiral Sampson is responsible for the race. It 4s thought that Sampson “played it” on the Oregon for the purpose of determining her speed. During the Santiago blockade Good had a glimpse or two of "Fighting Bob” Evans, of the lowa, and had the pleasure of hearing a few of Captain Evans's violent, and warlike declarations. “I shouldn’t like to talk about the captain,” said Good, “and the only thing I can say is that I believe he would put up an awful stiff bluff in a poker game.” Good does not expect to return to the navy, and is expecting his discharge every day. When it comes he will take service in the yards of one of the railways here. He hi ought with him from Santiago a bagful of Spanish coin and numerous articles of interest from the destroyed Spanish fleet. These souvenirs have been distributed among admiring relatives and friends. RECEIVER FOR INDUSTRIAL LIFE One Named on Complaint of Mary A. Herod. In the litigation over the Industrial Life Association of Indianapolis a receiver was appointed for the concern yesterday on the intervening petition of Mary A. Herod. The Union Trust Company’ was named as receiver by Judgo Allen, of the Circuit Court. Mrs. Herod is the beneficiary of a. $2,000 policy issued to her father, the late Bergen Applegate. She alleged in the complaint for a receiver that the satisfactory proof of her father's death was made and that the association failed to settle the amount of the policy. It. was further alleged that the association is hopelessly insolvent. The officers of the association consented to the appointment of a receiver. The defendant company maintained offices in the Hartford block. It had two classes of insurance—industrial and ordinary. In the industrial department policies were w’ritten for sums less than SSOO. In the department of ordinary insurance policies were written for larger amounts. It is claimed the association has transferred its ordinary business to the Life Insurance Company of America. Divorce Court C'omplnint*. In the Superior Court yesterday’ the wife of Henry’ Keene made him the defendant in a suit for divorce, in which she charges abandonment. The Keenes were married in June, 1893, and the wife claims her husband deserted her within a short time after their marriage. Pius Brown brings suit for divorce from Augusta P. Brown. The plaintiff says his wife has a violent temper. She throws dishes and furniture at him, he says, and has threatened to poison him or “split his head open with an axe.” On going to bed one night the defendant, according to the complaint, declared she wished she would find the plaintiff dead when she woke in the morning. The plaintiff relates an interesting story of how his wife steeped tobacco and placed the liquid on the table for him to drink. He says he has been a kind and dutiful husband to the defendant, and gave her money every Saturday night. Flora Grausling, in a suit for divorce from John G. Grausling, says she was married to the defendant in 1896. and until September, IS9B, she had no complaint to make of her husband. He suddenly became morose and sullen and treated her so cruelly that she had to find a home with her mother. John W. Frederick, in a suit for divorce, complains of Emma F. Frederick. The complaint says that Mrs. Frederick has "cut, beat, struck, bruised, maimed, abused and otherwise cruelly treated the plaintiff.” Since Jan. 1, he says, Mrs. Frederick has refused to attend to her wifely duties. Ella Demarr seeks a divorce from Walter Demarr, to whom she was married in April, 1890. The plaintiff says the defendant has abandoned her. Her maiden name was Ella Miller. Superior Court* Open. All of the Superior Courts opened yesterday for the sass term. The most important ease during the day was an Iron Hall argument in Room 1. The argument is on the question of the members of the Cleveland. 0.. branch of the order sharing in the general distribution. Some of the Iron Hall branches in Ohio had their own receiver ap-

pointed. He secured possession of part of the Iron Hall funds and the members received dividends amounting to 20 per cent. Other members of the Iron Hall, who obeyed the instructions of the receiver, received dividends amounting to 35 per cent. Now the members in Ohio who received the 20 per cent, dividend want to come in for a share in the general distribution. Judge McMaster heard argument and took the question under advisement. The attorneys for the Iron Hall claim that if the petition of the Cleveland branch is granted it will eat up the remaining $C0,009 of Iron Hall funds. Dispute Over Sand ••Mines.** An order was Issued in the Superior Court late yesterday evening restraining Morris E. Cleary and James Martin from interfering with the affairs of the White River Sand Company. The suit for injunction brought by the sand company grows out of a dispute over boundary lines in White river, just north of the Washington-street bridge. Cleary and Martin have been working a sand-bar in the river near the bridge, and the White River Sand Company has been pumping sand near by’. Cleary and Martin have claimed that their neighbors were working too close to them. Yesterday it is said some men in the employ of the defendants attempted to prevent their neighbors from working. Acton Odd Fellow* Sued. Nathan T. Parker began proceedings in the Superior Court yesterday against the Acton Lodge of Odd Fellows to collect an old judgment which he holds against the lodge. Several years ago Parker was a merchant in Acton and the Odd Fellows occupied a hall in his building as their lodge room. He found it necessary, in 18S0. to sue the lodge for rent, and secured a judgment for $419. It is alleged the Judgment was never paid and a year or tw s o after the suit Parker went West to reside. He returned a year or tw’O ago and now’ brings suit to collect the judgment which, with interest and costs, amounts to about SI,OOO. The Court ‘‘Spoke” of Them. The county grand jury began its September term yesterday. Judge McCray, in delivering his instructions, spoke to the jurors of the newspaper reports of places outside the city where there has been gross violation of the laws The court instructed the jurors to investigate these reports. ♦ THE COURT RECORD.

Sheriff ShnOltnn, However, Had No Trouble with Him. Sheriff Thomas Shufelton yesterday morning arrested Harry Dement at his home, two miles southeast of Fisher's Station, near the Hamilton county line. Dement, who Is about thirty-six years old, is charged with attempting to assault Mrs. J. R. Johnson, wife of a Hamilton county farmer. He was arrested on a warrant sent here by the Hamilton county sheriff. The husband of Mrs. Johnson came to the city Monday night to find out if a warrant had been issued for Dement s arrest. He told Sheriff Shufelton tijat the Hamilton county sheriff was afraid to arrest Dement, as he was considered a desperate character Yesterday morning Johnson accompanied Sheriff Shufelton to Dement's house. When within a short distance of the house, they met two of Dement's neighbors and Johnson asked them to go and see if Dement was at home. They declined to take any part in the arrest. The sheriff found Dement sitting in front of his house with a large knife in his hand. He threw the knife aside when the warrant was read. He declared his willingness to accompany the Marion county sheriff, but vowed he would never let the Hamilton county officer arrest him. He gave Shufelton no trouble on the way to the city. Dement will be turned over to the Hamilton county authorities. FELL ACROSS THE TRACK. Leo G. Pich in n Dangerous Position When Found. Leo G. Pich, 316 Nebraska street, was thrown from his w’heel at the south end of the viaduct last night and rendered unconscious. He was discovered in that condition. lying across the street-car tracks by another wheelman and puffed aside just in time to allow’ an approaching car to pass. The car was coming down the grade of the viaduct and it Is doubtful whether it could have been stopped before reaching him. He was carried to the side of the street and restored, and the ambulance was called to remove him to the Dispensary. Pich was badly shaken up and little skin remained on the right side of his face. Dr. Martin dressed the wounds. WAYNE TOWNSHIP TEACHERS. Appointment* by Trustee Clark for the Coming Year.

The Indianapolis Florists' Club, at its meeting last night, discussed the general condition of the trade at present, and its decline of late years formed the principal topic of the evening. A paper read by John Hartje brought forth considerable discussion. He held that people, as a general rule, know too little about plants and their care, and proposed a practical demonstration at the next annual flower show in November. A valuable plant taken from the florist to the private house, he says, generally becomes lifeless and the leaves turn brown, thus offering no encouragement to the public to make purchases. At the show he proposes to take plants in every stage of their gradual death and show the public the proper treatment. The florists feel very enthusiastic over the coming exhibition at Tomlinson Hall and believe that the failures. financially, of former years will not be duplicated this time. Another matter for consideration was the unprofessional practices of some of the local flower men in soliciting patronage. A committee was appointed to investigate this ctate of affairs and offer some suggestion as to the future treatment of these uealers by members of the club. Another committee was appointed to make arrangements for an excursion to Anderson, where the club has been invited as a body by Mesars. Stewart & Hail, of that city.

OPENING OF CAMPAIGN ♦ STATE COMMITTEE FIXES SEPT. 17 AS THE DATE. —♦ One Day Earlier in This County— Democrat* to Begin a M eek. Later. Saturday of next week. Sept. 17. the political campaign in Indiana will be formally opened by the Republicans, a week in advance of the Democrats. The date for opening the campaign was fixed at a meeting of the Republican state central committee and the subcommittees yesterday afternoon. All of the thirteen congressional districts were represented, the members of the committee reporting that there is much interest already manifest in political subjects, the early meetings that have already been held in some of the districts being attended by large crowds evidently much interested in the issues of the campaign. The arrangements for the Indianapolis meeting have been left by the state committee to the county committee. Chairman Saulcy has decided to have the Indianapolis meeting the night before, Friday, Sept. 16. This was decided on because Saturday is market day and there would be a good deal of noise and confusion about Tomlinson Hall, w'here the meeting is to be held. Albert J. Beveridge will be the speaker at Tomlinson Hall. Details for the meetings in the other twelve districts were not completed yesterday, so far as the names of the speakers are concerned. This will be decided by State Chairman Hernly to-day, after which the meeting places and the speakers will be announced. Among those who will most likely speak are Governor Mount, Robert S. Taylor, Frank B. Posey, A. C. Harris, several of the candidates on the Republican state ticket and prominent orators of the party. Some of the meetings will be held in the afternoon and others at night. It is quite likely that in addition to the district meetings there will also be meetings in various counties, at which candidates on the county and congressional tickets will speak. It is the idea to begin the campaign in as thorough a manner as possible. The congressional districts are already in pretty thorough organization and it is the intention to strengthen the county organizations. No one has any doubt as to what the result of the election will be, but there is sometimes danger in overconfidence. The feeling is, say the politicians, that the voters will not stay at home this year, however. Reports made yesterday indicate that the organization both by counties and districts has never been better. It seems plain that the Democrats are preparing for an active campaign, a condition that is pleasing to the Republicans, who feel that Republican chances will be made even more favorable by a full discussion and a presentment of the Issues to the people. The Democratic campaign, it is announced by Chairman Parks M. Martin, will open Sept. 24. a week later than the Republican meetings. At the local Democratic meeting speeches will be made by Senator Turpie, John W. Kern, J. E. McCullough, L. O. Bailey, A. G. Smith, Samuel E. Morss, Frank B.' Burke, Henry Warrum and Charles E. Barrett. If the audience survives this onslaught of oratory other speakers may be added to the list. Tomlinson Hall will be the place for the Indianapolis meeting. The Democrats will follow-- the example of the Republicans and have meetings in each district, It is announced. COUNCIL MEETING TO-NIGHT. Controller to Mnke Rerommcnilafion* for Increased Levy. The Common Council will meet to-night to receive the appropriation ordinances. The regular meeting was to have been held Monday night, but was postponed on account of the Labor day holiday. The Taggart administration, having broken the ice on its proposition to increase the municipal tax levy 10 cents, is prepared to carry it through the Council, although there are a few of the Democrats who insist that there is no occasion to raise the already burdensome taxes which citizens are now paying. A caucus of Democrats was held last night to discuss the matter, and it is understood that the members agreed to support the administration. Controller Johnson, who put. himself on record against an increased levy, will now- make the recommendation for the raise. The estimates of expenditures for the different departments, as the controller will present them to the Council, are as follows: Department of finance, $169.022.1 j; department of law. $9,140; department of public works. $544,910; department of puhlic safety, $346,331.50; department of public health, $45,189.75; total, $1,114,593.43.

A Campaign in Which Qnnrtormnstcr and Commissary Did Their Duly. Philadelphia Press. The vacillation of Mr. Gladstone, who did not know- what he wanted to do with the Egyptian Sudan, led to the fall of Khartum on Jan. 26, 1885, when 5,000 brave Anglo-Egvptians, with Gordon at their head, fell before 50,000 Dervishes under the Mahdi, and the ill-fated British expedition, which was wandering about in the desert near Berber, put back to Cairo without accomplishing anything save to lower British prestige in the Nile valley. The horror of the thing, although no one knew then what particular form of death Gordon and his faithful officers would meet, so impressed the British imagination that the Gladstone government, after saying it would not. was compelled to declare that the reconquest of the Sudan was henceforth to he part of the British policy in Egypt. Ten years passed away. 'The Mahdi ruled at Khmum and gradually pushed his outposts down the Nile valley almost to Assouan. and even after his death the Khalifa and his emirs, who deserted Khartum and made Omdurman the dervish capital and holy place, were able to keep in cruel bondage the whole Nile valley above the second cataract, and the threat of reconquest seemed impotent and meaningless. But the English had learned much from the failure of the campaign of 18S5. and under Kitchener, who was with the expedition that failed to roach Khartum, they have now achieved the desire of years, and the Dervish capital is in their hands. This result is a triumph for preparation, and foresight, and resourcefulness. It is a triumph of the commissary and quartermaster over climate and emotionalism. As brilliant as was the decisive battle on the Atbara on April 8 and as brilliant as the destruction of Omdurman will doubtless prove to be. the great feature Is the transportation of so large and complete a force 1.256 miles up the Nile from Cairo, completely equipped and with subsistence for man and animals in a region which could not be depended on for anything. This was the great victory. And 'it was this steady. Inexorable advance of such an army that made the fall of Omdurman only a question of time and intention. To accomplish this result has required two years of actual campaigning, actual campaigning aside from the years of planning. The Nile railroad was pushed to Assouan, then river boats were secured to run between Assouan and Haifa, 210 miles, and then the desert was subdued (by means of American locomotives!) and a railroad was run from Halfu to Berber, 300 mile* further south, until oarly this summer, by the extension of the line to the Atbara, less than 200

miles lav between railhead and the capital of the khalifate. Naturally this progress through what was a hostile country in 1895 was not without resistence, and vet from the first the advance has practically never halted. What was taken was held. Long before the rout of the emirs at the Atbara and the flight of Osman Digna, this remorseless advance had spread consternation among the Dervishes, 't heir supplies were cut off; their aiiies, held only by fear, revolted; the treaty of England with Abyssinia kept Menelek quiet, and the only thing left for the Khalifa to do was to prepare for flight into Kordofum and sell his stronghold as dearly as possible. Until the details of thy fall of Omdurman come in, just how badly the Khalifa is crushed will not be known. But that the fall of Omdurman means the last of Dervish rule in the Nile valley is beyond all peradventure. The American locomotive and the Maxims (also American) in conjunction with British soldiers and Britishdrilled Egyptians afld the Sudanese cannot well be withstood. And so it happens that thirteen years and seven months after the fall of Khartum Gordon is finally avenged. GOV. WOLCOTT’S APPEAL. Asks that Returning Porto Rico Troops Are Well Cared For. BOSTON. Sept. 6—Governor Wolcott, whose mail is burdened with anxious inquiries as to the condition of the Sixth Massachusetts Volunteers, now in Porto Rico, has sent the following te.egram to President McKinley: ‘ The pitiable condition in which the Second and Ninth Massachusetts Regiments have returned from their arduous and gallant service in Cuba has naturally caused a profound sense of solicitude regarding the Sixth Regiment, now in Porto Rich. My own feelings are deeply concerned, and I am besought by personal letters and by the authorities of cities to ask for the prompt return and muster out of this regiment. I have felt it my duty to decline to comply with this request so long as the national government requires their services. The splenuid patriotism which prompted their voluntary enlistment will sustain them in any peri! or hardships they may be called cn to endure. But the lives of her sons art; precious in the eyes of the commonwealth, as I am well assured they are to you, to whom the fortunes of our arms have been competently intrusted; and I have the .honor urgently to request that whether in camp, in garrison or on transports, these lives may be tenderly guarded by every precaution in clothing, food and medical attendance which science may suggest. To this end no effort can be too great, and no expenditure too lavish. The commonwealth through its constituted authorities and through the contributions of its patriotic citizens, ably administered by the Volunteer Aid Association, will consider it a privilege to be permitted, with money or supplies. io aid the efforts which the national government is making to render its service less perilous to the lives and health of its gallant soldiers.” TRANSPORT RAN AGROUND. Severe Exposure for MnNsnelinnettn Sick Soldiers. NEWPORT, R. 1., Sept. 6.—The steamer Lewiston, chartered by the Massachusetts Volunteer Aid Association, with nearly two hundred sick soldiers on board, bound from Montauk Foint to Boston, ran ashore near Point Judith last night and narrowly escaped being wrecked. One hundred and thir-ty-five of the men were placed in a lighter which fortunately was in the breakwater, and brought to this city by a tug about midnight. The sick soldiers were in such an exposed place on the hare deck of the lighter during the trip of fifteen miles across the bay from Point Judith that a number of them are not expected to reach Boston alive. As many as possible will be sent to Boston by a special train. BOSTON. Mass., Sept. 6.—The train carrying the sick soldiers of the Ninth Massachusetts Regiment taken from the steamer Lewiston, when she was wrecked last night at Newport, being en.route from Montauk Point to this city, reached here early today. There were no deaths on hoard the train, but four of the men are in a precarious condition. MRS. BOTKIN’S CASE. Roth Sides Give Consent to Continuance Until Next Tuesday. SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 6.—Mrs. Cordelia Botkin appeared in court to-day in answer to the habeas corpus writ issued by Judge Cook a week ago. Airs. Botkin appeared extremely calm and self-possessed. Her attorneys announced that neither the defense nor the prosecution was ready to go on with the case and District Attorney Hosmer substantiated this statement and by consent of both parties the case was continued until next Tuesday. By that time it is thought that Governor Budd will have acted in the matter of extradition. HONEYMOON ENDED IN DEATH. A Bride Falls Down an Alpine Preeipiee and Husband Follows. LONDON. Sept. 6.—The Vienna correspondent of the Dally Mail says: "There has been another series of fatalities in the Austrian Alps. One case—the case of a newlymarried couple, was particularly sad.

The gentleman who visited the spot two days later lost his balance and fell, being killed instantly. INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION. M. D. Rntcliford, of Indiana, Among the Appointees.

WHOLESOME ADVICE For People Whose Stomarh* Are Weak and Diuestion Poor. Dr. Harlandeon, whose opinion in diseases is worthy of attention, says when a man or w'oman comes to me complaining of indigestion, loss of appetite, sour stomach, belching, sour watery-risings, headaches, sleeplessness, lack of amhition and a general run down nervous condition I advise them to take after each meal one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, allowing the tablet to dissolve in the moutn, and thus mingle with the food eaten. The result is that the food is speedily digested before it has time to sour and ferment. These tablets will digest food anyway whether the stomach wants to or not, because they contain harmless digestive principles, vegetable essent es, pepsin and Golden Seal which supply just what the weak stomach lacks. I have advised the taolets with great success, both in curing indigestion and to build up the tissues, increase flesh in thin, nervous patients, whose real trouble was dyspepsia; and as soon as the stomach was put to rights they did not know what sickness was. A 50-cent package of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets can be bought at any drug store, and as they are not a secret patent medicine. they can he used as often us desired with full assurance that they contain nothing harmful in the slightest degree; on the contrary, anyone whose stomach is at all deranged will find great benefit from the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. They w’ill cure any form of stomach weakness or disease except cancer of the stomach. Full size package at druggist* 56c or $1 or by mat! from Stuart company, Marshall, Mich.
