Greenfield about fifteen or twenty minutes after 7 o'clock and came out West Main street, passed Hroadway and varied around and went back to the alley which runs back of James Lafollette's house. I walked south through theilley, intending to go to the railroad and then go east to East street, and down to I'M Ryan's house. As 1 passed back of Lafollette's bouse I saw his wife standing outside Hie back door and I heard her say to LiifoHetle. who was standing down in the yard a piece west of ihe house, "Come back here"; ami I noticed both of them. I continued to walk on outli and he came down to the alley nrd he said. "D n you, I 'low' to kill you." I looked around and saw that he was close to me. within six or seven foe I, of me. lie came on after me and was striking at me. I backed away from him and kept him away from me with my hands. I kept, telling him to leovc me alone, lie ran out to the side of the alley ana picked up something that looked like a. club and walked up to me and said he was going to kill nm. I pulled my revolver out and he struck at me with what he held in his liHiid, but I kept away from him and be did not hit me, but struck at me several times. 'When he was within five or six feet of me I shot at him. He never eot his hands on hie nm) It did nor lav mv bands on him Th.. 1 ihing he had in his hands looked like a club about eighteen inches long. He -was bareheaded. It W3s dark, but I could see plain enough to see that it i was him. At the time I shot we were both on our feet and he was coming toward me. After I shot I walked on south to the corner of the alley and went; east to Hough street and came around ; In front of the house and continued, on to Main street.

Bryan, when asked by some one to name his choice for a running mate in the event of his nomination at Denver, laughingly replied: "I shan't, toll. That is too bold a question. To the newspaper men he said: "You may say that my coming to Washington was not to consult v ith any man or set of men as to whether or not I ought to be a candidate for the nomination. I have not put that question to any mau nor shall I. The people not. iudiv iduai.;. have the sole right to decide that point. I am not here to solicit support for myself as a possible presidential candidate. I never solicit individual support. I never ask any man to vote for me. In the past when I was before the people as a candidate j my efforts to obtain votes have been! confined to statements of my views." j Asked about the story published in ! f-ome quarters that former United

A Great Physiologist Once Said the Way to Keep Stomach Healthy Is To Exercise It. the But He Did Not Tell How to Make Healthy. It The muscles of the body can be developed by exercise until their strength has increased manifold, and a proper amount of training each day will accomplish this result, but it is somewhat doubtful whether you can increase the digestive powers of the stomach by eating indigestible food In order to force it to work. Nature has furnished us all with a perfect set of organs, and if they are not abused they will attend to the business required of them. They need no abnormal strength. Then is a limit to the weight a man can lift, and there is also a limit to what, the stomach can do. The cause of dyspepsia, indigestion and many affiliated diseases is that the stomach lias been exercised too much and it is tired or worn out. Not exercise but. rest is what it needs. To take something into the stomach that, will relieve it from its work for a short time something to digest the footl will give it a rest and allow it time to regain its strength. The proper aid to the digestive organs is Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which cure dyspepsia. Indigestion, gas on the stomach and bowels, heartburn. palpitation of the heart, and all stomach diseases. Rest and invigoration is what the stomach gets when you use Stuart's D'PePsia Tablets, for one grain of the active principle in them is sufficient to digest 3,000 grains of food. The Tablets Increase the flow of gastric juice, and prevent fermentation, acidity and sour eructions. I)o not attempt to starve out dyspepsia. You need all your strength. The common sense method is to digest the food for the stomach and give it a rest. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not make the cure, but enables the organs to throw off unhealthy conditions. Perfect, digestion means perfect health, for under these conditions only do the different organs of the bodywork right and receive the building-up material found in pure blood. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a natural remedy and is a specific for stomach troubles. The ablest physicians prescribe them. The Tablets are pleasant to the taste, and are composed of fruit and vegetable extracts, golden seal and pepsin. At all drug stores 50 cents petpackage.

People go to the theatre to be tertained. Gloomy plays, except rare instances, are not favorably eniu rereived. Audiences, especially women, like to have their feelings wrought upon to a certain extent; they even enjoy an opportunity to shed a few tears. Rut they also like to have the tears follow d by laughter, they want the sun to come out between '1' clouds. Since "East Lynn -," there has probably not been a play produced which draws women to witness it in such crowds as does Lottie Blair Parker's drama of love among the blossoms, "Cnder Southern Skies." There is something about the beautiful stage settings, youthful, summery dresses-, crowds of gay young folks, Hallowe'en tricks. Jack-o-lantern dance and touching love scenes that enchant the young, who are in the hey-day of their own pleasures, and fascinate their elders by carrying tfcem back to their own merry- days. "Under Southern Skies" is to appear at the Gennett Friday night, and the indications are that it will be witnessed by a large j audience L Organization Effected in New York, First in Country.

He sai that a memorandum attached theret defined what was regarded as rea.ot able limits, but insisted that Japr had not, conceded an' of her trea' rights nor had her prestige suffered. He said that the negotiations wit America were continuing and he wa unable to give any details but wa able to announce that a satisfactoi settlement was within sight.

HIS TERRIBLE EYES. Senator C3s Could Almost Paralyzt a Man With a Look. Giant bends, bodies and brains were Webster and Cass. All the strength of New Hampshire granite was concentrated in those two sous. To look upon them made the ordinary man feci small. Wonderful eyes they possesseJ. and men have been known to shiver with droad when one or the other allowed his giauce to fall upon them. Cass could look through a stranger in a way to make his brain burn and bis knees knock together. One searching stare seeined to destroy all mentality and fill the victim with paralytic emotions. No man dared take liberties with Cass, in ls-ld the proprietor of the National hotel in Washington was a mau who so closely resetnblea the great senator from Michigan that be was often mistaken for him. An old friend, returning from a journey, entered the lobby and. seeing him leaning against the desk, slipped up behind aud hit him a territie whack on the shoulder, saying cheerily and simultaneously: -Hello, old man: Here 1 am back ugaiu. How are you?" Senator Cass straightened up his six feet three and. turning upon the assailant his terrible. bhxdslKr eye.-, almost annihilated him with a look. Not a w ord was spoken. That look was ample. The stranger was so "rattled" that be could not even apologize, but

slunk dejectedly out of the hotel.
