REFORMERS

Cambridge Men Find Excelsior Waste and Matches on Their Doorsteps. ARE BLAMED FOR REFORM

EXCITING TIMES IN LITTLE CITY IN WESTERN WAYNE OVER LAW ENFORCEMENT TOWN BOARD MEETING.

Cambridge City, March 6 Last evening some unknown men placed on the door steps of the homes of John K. Gray, president of the town board; Wm. Doney and Dr. Littell, bundles of waste and excelsior, sprinkled on which were matches. This, it is thought, was done after the meeting cf the town board, at which meeting the board refused to take action on the petitions of the men who have been posted, as drunkards to have their names removed from the lists. Blamed for Reform Movement. An element in this place believe that Mr. Gray, Mr. Doney and Dr. Littell have been especially active in etartlng the reform movement here and the suggestive bundles left at their doorsteps are taken to mean that their houses will be fired unless they show less zeal in their fight for good government. Mr. Gray, Mr. Doney and Dr. Littell are not the least worried by the threats of the unknown parties and will continue with their fight, in which they are being assisted by practically all the good citizens of Cambridge City.

BAYS GAMBLING MUST STOP. Prosecutor Jessup Talks to Cambridge City Authorities. At the meeting of the town board of Cambridge City Tuesday evening there were exciting doings and the proceedings were witnessed by as many citizens as could crowd their way into the town hall. The excitement was furnished by a delegation of men, seventeen strong, who have been posted by the town marshal as drunkards and men who do not support their families. These citizens had many and long complaints to register and the members of the town board told them in very positive language what their opinions of the complainants were. Prosecutor Jessup also added zest to the board meeting by giving some pointers as to what he knew of the gambling games alleged to be operating In Cambridge City. The board meeting started at 7:30 o'clock ar.d it was well after midnight before the board adjourned. Seventeen Names Posted. At the last meeting of the town board in February a resolution was adopted calling upon the town marthai to enforce section 574 of the criminal statutes of the state, which provides against the selling of intoxicating liquor to men known to be habitual drunkards. The marshal proceeded to obey orders and In compliance with the law post in various saloons the names of men to whom 11-' quor should not be sold. There were seventeen names on these lists. Substance of the Complaints. Tuesday evening the seventeen victims of the marschal's action appeared before the board, pleaded with and threatened the members. All complainants had something to say. the gist of which was as follows: Tlieir families had been disgraced by the posting of their names; their fellow townsmen shunned them as things unclean; they could obtain no employment because of their disgrace, and that they were victims of a conspiracy. Complaints Are Answered.

President John E. Gray, Frank Mos-

baugh and other members of the board answered these men in the heart to heart style. Thy were told that council had passed no ordinance compelling the marshal to post their

names, but that the marshal was only acting in compliance with the state law. These men were told that for

some time oast they had spent all

their time and money trying to consume the liquor supply in Cambridge

Citv and that in the meantime they

liad permitted their wives and families to eke out a miserable existence.

providing them with no support and oblisrinc them to shift for themselves.

Mr. Mosbaugh state! that the wife of one of the complainants had '.nforined

him that her husband had given her only four dollars since last September and that she had to take in four and five washings a week and do house cleaning besides to support herself. The big crowd in the hall heard these curtain lectures with the greatest Interest and the men to whom they were directed listened with drooping heads. Jessup Commends Board. Prosecutor Jessup, "who was in attendance at the request of the board, commended the board in the action it has taken to suppress the class of men who deprived their families of the necessities of life to appease their appetites for drink: thtn the prosecutor created somewhat of a mild sensation by stating that he had received reports from respectable and reliable citizens of Cambridge City to the effect that the 'iid is off and the click of poker chips, the whirl of the roulette wheel and the callings of the faro game keejers could once more be heard in the town. Mr. Jessup stated that it is the duty of the town board , to investigate these rports and if they are true, all the gamblers should be driven out of the city. Mr. Jessup aid not state what course he would pursue In replacing the Cambridge City 'iid." Members of the town board state that they have no knowlolp:e that there is gambling goinc un in Cambridge

The Young Men's Christian Associa

tion of Richmond at the present time

deems to be suffering because of a

lack of knowledge of the true scope of its work. The great possibilities of its work, and Its value to a com

munity are not understood and consequently not appreciated by a great

many of the people of this city. The fact that the association in its finan

cial canvass in cities where the asso

ciation has already been established

nas such remarkable success in rais

ing funds should be in evidence to people of good judgment that the association is worth all the money put into

it.

The impression seems to prevail In

Richmond In the minds of a few peo

ple that the Young Men's Christian Association is a genteel loafing place, which, if true, with its wholesome

surroundings, its absence of unsesmly stories and language, would be much better than the ordinary places where

bovs and men sometimes congregate.

This impression is entirely false and only prevails in the minds of people who have cot taken the trouble to investigate the methods and' work of the

association. The whole atmosphere and the import of the association is against idleness in any sense of the

word.

Trained in Usefulness. When a boy or young man steps into an association building, if he is new and unacquainted with what

Is expected of him, Immediately under the careful and tactful guidance of consecrated secretaries or physical directors he is lead or directed into some channel where his mind is being trained in usefulness. Usually, as a beginner, he may be directed to the game room, where in contest of brain with some member, he battles in siience or gentlemanly dignity for the mastery. He is then led to the work of the jgymnasium, where, under the teaching of a competent physical director, he is helped to the Increase of endurance and health. To the graceful and intelligent use of the whole physical body which God has blessed bim with. Here he is taught to measure strength .with strength under severe and intense contest. To control ais temper, to take defeat gracefully and accept victory with humility. Aside from the game room and gymnasium, there is the well equipped reading room with newspapers, clean magazines and books. There are the Bible classes, the debating societies, the night classes for shop men and boys dealing In a theoretical manner with the practical things that they come in contact with in their employment through the day. In fact everything is attempted and enlarged upon which in any degree will make the ambitious, worthy boy and young man a clean, full rounded man. In a word the Young Men's Christian Association's business Is to help the member help themselves.

SHE QUIVERS WITH ANGUISH AfID SOBS (Continued from Page One.)

ber. a day or two before his brother

Josiah's wedding.

"Durinff the time your son Harry

was at home, did you notice anything unntural about his condition?" asked Mr. Delmas.

"I certainly did," replied Mrs.

Thaw.

"Will you please describe what took

place?"

"That day. when he first came to

the door, there was a look of absentmindedness on his face, a despairing look. It struck me at th time."

Mrs. Thaw's two sons, other than

the - defendant. Edward and Josiah,

sat just behind Harry during their mother's testimony. They seemed

much affected by it.

"Did the imnression of a change in

your son grow on you?" asked Mr.

Delmas.

"Yes, he seemed to have lost all in

terest in everything. His room was

next to mine. Often in the nignt

from his room I heard smothered sobs.

Sometimes when I was awake late at

night I would see lights under his door, and often found him sitting up at

3 or 4 o'clock in the morning."

In arguing on an objection by District Attorney Jerome, Mr. Delmas said he would invoke the rule of the law that Thaw being insane in 1903, continued insane in 1904. "If that assumption is sound," said

the district attorney, "there is no rea

son to believe this defendant is not insane today, and it becomes the duty of the court to suspend the trial." Mr. Jerome said he was not suggesting the appointment of a commission

in lunacy at this time, but was auvancing the point as an argument on the question as to whether Mrs. Thawshould be allowed to repeat all conversations with her son. Justice Fitzgerald overruled Mr. Jerome's objection to Mrs. Thaw's telling conversations with her son in 1904. He said the question of the appointment of a lunacy commission was not before the court. Mrs. Thaw proceeded: "He told me he could not sleep and there was no use going to bed. I am not of a prying disposition, but I asked him to tell me what the matter was. He said it was impossible to tell me his story." "Did he at any time in answer to your questions, freely tell you the story?" "He told me freely one night, when I Insisted on It." Mr. Jerome objected to the repetition of the story until Mr. Delmas stated that the time at which it was told was covered by the testimony of the alienists as a period when Thaw was Insane. Mr. Jerome withdrew hi3 objection and allowed the witness to give the purport of the conversation." "He told me the story." said Mrs. Thaw, "but not definitely. He said his troubles were caused by something a wicked man had done in New York, probably the wickedest man in New York. He said it had ruined his life, and he never could be happy. That

was all I could get from him for a week."

BIG SHRINKAGE IN STOCKS

MARKET STILL PANICKY

Well Defined Impression on the Street that Harriman and His Associates Are Really Responsible for the Existing Conditions.

A RACE WAR IS REPORTED

Georgia Whites and Blacks Clash as Result of the Attempt to Arrest a Colored Woman.

New York, March 6. While there has been some slight change late today in the panicky conditions which prevailed all of yesterday, many of those watching the stock market insist that the end is not yet and that the weakness manifested is even more ominous today. While opinions differ as to the reason for the vast shrinkage of values these since December are said to be more than $2.000,000,000 there is a well defined impression in the street that when the bottom is reached, E. H. Harriman and his associates will be found. For the past week Harriman has been in Washington. Meanwhile there has been a significant liquidation of certain stocks, notably those of the Hill lines. Conservative estimates fix the depreciation in values during the last four months of Great Northern stocks at upwards of $200,000,000, while Northern Pacific is said to have run second with a shrinkage amounting to nearly $140,000,000. This, despite the fact that Hill has made desperate personal efforts to stem the tide. At the same time it is significant that, the Harriman stocks Union

Pacific, Southern Pacific, Illinois Cen

tral, Baltimore & Ohio and others have also been caught and rapped about as hard as the others. Americans closed unusually weak

on the London market with selling along the entire list. Every indication late this afternoon points to further trouble tomorrow.

COMPANY

ALSO A SMALL AUDIENCE

Arthur Dunn in "The Little Joker" Was Pleasing but Not up to the Standard of Many Shows Seen Here This Season.

Arthur Dunn, who for several seasons past has pleased local theatre

goers, in different nonsensical musi

cal comedies, again demonstrated his "tickling" abilities last night at the Gennett, In the musical play "The Little Joker." Dunn was surrounded by just fifteen people and although handicapped by this, the diminuative little comedian made good from the start. The singing throughout the performance was only fair although a few selections pleased immensely. Taken as a whole. Dunn thrown in, the show pleased although it was not up to the standard set by several other good shows seen in the city during the present season. Only a fair sized audience was present.

Differences Settled.

Columbus, Ga.. March 6. A special to the Sun tonight states that a race war had occured at the little town of Union Snrinss. Four negroes and one

( white man are reported to have been

killed. The trouble is said to have originated through endeavors of deputy sheriff to arrest a colored woman who was charged with having brutally assaulted a five year old white child.

Philadelphia, Pa., March 6. Late

PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY.

St. Petersburg, March C. Emperor Nicholis today received M. Colovin, president of the lower house of the Russian Parliament; instead of tomorrow and as a consequence there was no session of the house today. It is stated that the Emperor received the president in a most gracious manner and that he is thoroughly satisfied with the selection. The conference was an unusually long ors for such

an occassion and it is evident that the

new president is persona grata at

court.

It is rumored that the demonstra

tion which continued all of last night and which has abated but little today

had a decided effect on the nobility

and in a great measure can be given as one of the reasons why the presi

dent was received a day before it had

been arranged he should be.

Reports from various parts of the

EmDire indicate that there is consider

able discontent and that the unrest is

srraduallv becoming more pronounc

ed. It is feared that the socialistic party will take advantage of the situation to again stir up the people

against the royal family. SENATE MAY RECONSIDER

Probable that Upper House will Agree to Amendments to Hawkins Anti-Trust Bill.

Indianapolis, Ind., March 6. The

senate this afternoon refused to con

cur in the amendments made to the Hawkins anti-trust bill, which placed the burden of proof on the prosecution to prove that the combinations had done that which "is harmful and unreasonable."

It is highly probable that the senate

tomorrow morning, will vote to reconsider its action in refusing to agree to the amendment. It is claimed that

unless the amendment is adopted, that

the law will drive out of the state an the small manufacturing concerns,

which cannot compete with the great

corporations of other states wfc do not come under the provisions of the law.

Committee Appointed to Investigate Matter of Life Insurance in New Jersey Makes a Report Embodying a Number of Recommendations.

Trenton, X. J. March 6. Many Important recommendations for the regulation of life Insurance companies in New Jersey are included in the report of the select committee of the senate appointed to investigate the subject of life insurance in the state, made public today. . By far the greater part of the report is devoted to the Prudential in

surance company of America. Principal among the recommendations is one that a bill be enacted limiting the amount of capital stock which any life insurance company may have to $2,000,000 and the dividends which may be. paid thereon from future earnings to 10 per cent upon the stock; and providing that upon the dissolution of the company the stockholders of the company shall have out of the ultimate distribution of assets not more than $2 for one of the face value of their shares. The report says that the balance and surplus of $125,000,000 now held by the Prudential, "was all contributed by and in ethics all belonss to the policy holders, after a fair deduction for the expenses of operation and a just return to the promoters of the enterprise." "While the vested rights of the stock holders of the Prudential company must be recognized and maintained, we cannot, contemplate without some solicitude the continuous rolling up of an enormous surplus by this company, taken from millions of contributors, for whom the company is the trustee if this surplus is to be considered the property of a few stockholders whose rewards obtained under the company's charter have already been so great.

New York, March 6. Edward II. Harriman announced tonight that he would defy the president and secure control of an ocean to ocean railroad system.

RECEPTION DISAPPOINTING

Not as Many Legislators as Had Been Expected Went to Vice President's Home.

Indianapolis, Ind., March 6. Neither branch of the legislature wa3 in session tonight owing to the fact that they were tendered a reception by Vice-President Fairbanks. Although there was a large attendence of representatives and senators, together with state officials, the number paying their respects to the vice-president was not as large as had been expected. The explanation is given that owing to close confinement during the past several days to duties of state the law makers found it necessary to return to their homes so that they could give their attention to private affairs, which had been neglected.

Liquid Koal acts as an appetiser and vttaMier. JCo ls ease grra can escape It. 'ihet Is the reason U cures, for when the germ Is destroyed the disease Is gone.

The process of making Liquid Koal requi three days. The process of reduction requires 350 degrees of heat. This compound embraces every Genocide, Antiseptic and Disinfectant found In coal, treated chemically with an alkaline base until every objectionable feature is eliminated, being non-poisonous and harmless. Liquid Koal is made from the following formula: 33 1-3 per cent Creosote, which embraces Cresylic Acid; 33 1-3 per cent Liquid Gases; 33 1-3 per cent Soft Soap. Suspended In these is Sulphur, Borax and Naphthol and other Remedial Agents. Liquid Koal is guaranteed to be at least 20 per cent stronger In antiseptic and germicide agents than any preparation of similar nature on the market.

Hoc Cholera

Is a free germ disease the germ being first found In the alimentary canal and as long as it is confined in that organ it is comparatively harmless When however, it penetrates to the lungs, liver and other organs it causes fermentation, inflamation and destruction of live tissues, furnishing food upon which it thrives and multiplies with wonderful rapidity, in some cases a generation an hour, causing death to the animal before the owner has discovered that it was diseased. Thus through reasoning two facts stand out clearly: First, that hog cholera cannot be treated successfully unless treatment has commenced before the germ has reached the period of rapid multiplication. Second that a germicide must be administered, and therein lies the whole secret. As we pass down through the list of various germicides, we are compelled, one by one, to reject them, either because of inefficiency or inadaptability, until we reach LIQUID KOAL. And we choose LIQUID KOAL? Because it is the only known germicide that will pass through the stomach into the intestines and from there Into the blood, permeating the entire system, and still retaining Its germicide properties. It is a compound embracing every practical germicide, anticeptive disinfectant properly found In coal, treated chemically, with an alkaline base, until every objectionable feature Is eliminated, being non-poisoness and harmless to animal economy. It contains Cressel and Quaicel. It is these Hydrocarbon compounds found In smoke that cure a ham , destroying by Its germicidal properties all germ life.

Woi m; in Hoco The . hog is more , infected with Intestinal worms than any otter, domestic animal. . These. worms are created by impure accumulations along the Intestinal tract and generally produced by poorly digested food. The nature of the hog and his manner of eating renders him more susceptible of Intestinal worms than any other animal. Under the present domesticated conditions he Is not allowed the use of his natural instincts toobtain the necessary elements that would destroy these intestinal parasites. Being shut up in a pen he Is not allowed to follow the dictates of nature. The hpg that Is wormy can neither .grow nor thrive for the reason that the worms destroy all the nutrition furnished In the food. Liquid Koal put In the drinking water In the proportioa of one quart to the barrel and given them twice a week will destroy all Intestinal .worms and keep them free from their formation and multiplication. It strengthens the appetite and tones up the system.

Liquid Koal Lico Killer . When diluted with water In the proportion of one part Liquid Koal f fifty parts water it Is the best Lice Killer on thf market. It is not expensive to use because It forms a perfect emulsion with water In this proportion.

Delmont, Dec. 17, 1902. I have used Liquid Koal for hog cholera and found it all you claim for It and more too. I used it on one that was sick, so sick It could not get up and the next day it was eating and drinking again. I have never lost a hog since I commenced using it. EMANUEL HOI IK. Wausau, Neb.. Dec. 16, 1902. Have used Liquid Koal for nearly a year and find it an excellent article to keep hegs in a healthy condition and as an appetizer it h.s no equal. ALBERT ANDERSON.

Hartington, Neb., Dec. 10,. 1802. Dear Sirs: I am a user of Liquid Koal and am well pleased with It. Would not try to do without it. as I find It useful In a great many

ways. I have had no sick hogs since I commenced using It a year ago. In my opinion It Is the; beet and c hearjest hoe cholera prerenta-

. tive on the market today. Yon
