by skillful combination in just the right proportions. Used as ingredients of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Black Cherrybark. Queen's root, Golden Seal root, Bloodroot and Stone root, specially exert

leading medical writers, of all the several " schools of practice, for the cure not only
of the diseases named above but also for
indigestion, torpor of liver, or biliousness; obstinate constipation, kidney and ,bladir troubles and catarrh, no matter

You don't hare to take Dr. Pierce's say-so alone as to this; what he claims for his "Discovery " is hacked up by the writings of the most eminent men in the
medical profession. A reouest by postal

POLICE THINK IT SHOULD
Number of the Officers Declare that
There is Such a Thing as Being Too
Strict Result of New Law Is
Awaited.
just now uwnmond veople are
wondering what effect the switching
of the control 'of the police force from
the hands of the commissioners ap
pointed by the governor to the hands
of the commissioners appointed by
the mayor will have on the "official
lid" of, the city of Richmond.
For the past two years the lid on this city has been bolted down tight by the orders of the governor. It is expected that the lid will still be
maintained under the new law, but it is predicted that several bolts will
be taken out of it.
The members ot the police force
do not hesitate In stating that, the
lid has been kept od too tight, and
they are regarded as well qualified to
speak authoritatively on this subject.
Last year there were 632 arrests
made by the local force, an average of about two arrests per day, which
Is an. unusually high average for
such a law abiding community as Richmond. Too tight a lid, say the
police, Is responsible for this show
ing.
Why have there been so many
women insulted on the streets of
late?" asks the staid, law-observing
citizen. "Too tight a lid," the police reply. Some people say that the city
was better off in the days before the
coming of the lid. Others are of the opinion that the tight lid has been a
great boon to the city. What opinion the new police commissioners will
hold to be the correct one remains
to be seen.
As to the effect the announcement

WAR ON PRAYER CHAINS
Postoffice Department Takes Up Fight
Against the Nuisance Which is Now Growing.
United States Inspectors, are waging
war against the endless prayer chain letters, millions of which have passed
through the malls in the course of the
oast four years. It is ' not because chanfe
the government is logins money by
handling the millions of letters, but
it is because of the threat which the missives carry with them, which has caused considerable uneasiness
among the people who have been the recipients, in that they threaten an
outpouring of divine wrath for those
who ignore them.
One of the letters was recently held up by a clerk at the Indianapolis
postoffice, owing to the lack of suffi
cient postage, and It was placed in William T. - Fletcher's hands, he being the chief government inspector for this district. The letter was sign
ed and the woman who had written

the sender is immediately called be

out in large numbers in order to .wor
ry the Innocent, who do not know
the! source. Bishop Lawrence has time and time again denied . being
the author of the letters, and it is
on this ground that the . beliefs of
the postal officials are based. According to their belief it is either a
lunatic or another deranged person who is responsible for the widespread
nuisance.

at the time the grand jury was in
session. He was formerly a buggy
dealer In Elwood, and later engaged in buying horses throughout Madison
county.
"CON" WOMAN IS RELEASED
Creditors Get Dividend.
Columbus, Ind., March 1. George
Pence, trustee of the Janney. Manu
facturing company, yesterday paid
out the first dividend to the creditors of the company since the concern
went into bankruptcy. He checked out $19.3S0.62 to forty-two creditors,
which was 40 per cent of the full
amount of claims proved to the ref
eree, the full amount having been
$48,431.71.

the Old "Cure-All" Charm Game.
Frankfort, Ind., March 1. Rose
Stanley-Small, the Gypsy, arrested
here two months ago, charged with
the larceny of '$50 from Mrs. Merritt, of Mulberry, because she had promised to cure the latter of a cancer by means of charms and the use of what
she said was the skin of a mermaid,
has been released from the county
jail on her own recognizance. The
action of the state's attorney is prac
tically a dismissal of the case against
the gypsy woman, the charge not be
ing-dismissed so that in the future she would give this county a wide berth In her travels about the coun
try.
A REMARKABLE WRECK
ONLY ONE WAS KILLED
Those in the Catastrophe at Connellsville Thursday Night, Had Miraculous Escape Part of Mechanism was Loose.
Pittsburg, Pa., March 1. The wreck at Indian Creek, near Connellsville, last night is said to be -even more marvelous than the wreck of the Pennsylvania special on the Pennsylvania railroad last Saturday morning. The dead: Wylie Irvin, Pittsburg, engineer, caught under the wrecked engine and burned to death before the eyes of the passengers who were powerless to liberate hlra. Fatally injured: T. D. Frederick, Pittsburg, fireman. Among the seriously injured were B. O. Hull, Garrettsville, Ohio; Mrs. J. W. Tissue, Morgantown, W. Va There were forty-one passengerq on the train. Including a. party of Baltimore & Ohio railroad officials who were on a tour of inspection. Suddenly the .whole train swayed and with
much jarring and cracking left the rails, and after running over 200 feet along the ties plunged into a ditch at the foot of the mountain. The four cars piled in a heap almost directly over the engine. Screaming and fighting desperately the passengers managed to break the windows of the cars and gain places of safety just as the cars became Ignited from the engine and commenced to burn fiercely. Within a few moments all had got out. While they stood about in a dazed condition hardly realizing their miraculous es
cape, they were attracted by the cries of Engineer Irwin. Several of the
passengers, accompanied by Superin
tendent Finney and the other officials, ran to the engineer's rescue. Their efforts were accelerated by Ir
win's pathetic pleading, but without success. The flames quickly burned
their way to the doomed man.
Relief trains were dispatched from
this city and the injured brought to the hospitals here.
Talking regarding the cause of the
wreck, Superintendent Finney said:
Th8 wreck was caused by some part
of the engine mechanism becoming loosened and dropping to the track, throwing the train from the rails. It would be hard to prove this now as everything is broken or burned."
TONIGHT ATJ9 O'CLOCK.
CLOSES THE GREAT DEMONSTRA
TIONS AT LUKEN'S DRUG STORE If one can judge by the almost con
tinual stream of evidence that is pour
ing into Luken's drug store from all parts of Richmond, the Root Juice demonstration has provefjto be a
great blessing to many nomes and
hundreds of people will always have a kindly feeling for the Root Juice Scientist on account of the great good the phenominal Juice has done for them. They have proved every state
ment. They have fulfilled every prom
ise. Many people that suffered for
years with some Stomach, Liver, Kid
ney or Blood trouble are now claim
ing entire freedom from all aches and
pains. Let us hope the cure is per
manent and that the great good done
in Richmond will be continued
throughout the country. " The in
structor said: "We close our demonstrations at this point tomorrow night
at nine o'clock. Those who suffer with indigestion, constipation, rheumatism, catarrh and kidney troubles will make a sad mistake by letting us leave without procuring some of the
health-giving juice. We have proved its merit. Hundreds of people here in Richmond now know what it will do."

Secretary Brown received a letter from E. E. Stacey, state secretary of the Y. M. C. A. of Indianapolis yesterday, stating that the committee expected to boom the sum being worked for in that city over the stipulated amount $250,000, and if this was done the
committees, who have been working for the Young Men's Christian Association will begin another canvass for $100,000, that a home for the young
women of the city may be built. Several of the most prominent business men of that city are engaged in the campaign, among whom is J. K. Lilly. He was to have spent his vacation in Florida, but instead of doing so, sent his wife ahead while he remained in Indianapolis to help raise the stipulated $250,000. Arrangements have been made whereby Secretary Stacy will appear in Richmond on the night of March 11th, giving his lecture, "Glimpses of the Y. Mf C. A. Movement." The lecture wHl be given at the First Methodist church and will be illustrated by stereopticon views. The same views have been shown during the campaigns in the majority of the cities where associations have been organ
ised.
