Ex-Senator M. C. Butler.
Dyspepsia Ps Often Caused by Catarrh
of the Stomach—Peruna Relieves Ca
tarrh of the Stomach and Is Therefore a
Remedy for Dyspepsia.
Hon. M. C. Butler, U. S. Senator J
from South Carolina for two terms, I
in a letter from Washington, D. C.. *
writes to the Peruna Medicine Co., 1
as follows: ♦
“I can recommend Peruna for ’
dyspepsia and stomach trouble. I T
have been using your medicine for j
a short period and 1 feel very much •
relieved. It is indeed a wonderful t
medicine, besides a good tonic.” T
CATARRH of the stomach is the cor
rect name for most cases of dyspep
sia. Only an internal catarrh rem
edy, such as Peruna, is available.
Peruna Tablets can now be procured.

Harry Payne Whitney the day his
own and other noted horsemen's
racers were shipped from London on
the Minnehaha, said of the death of
racing in New York:
“A good many jockeys have been
hard hit. A jockey told me last week
a very sad tale of misfortune. I lis
tened sympathetically.”
“ ‘Ah, Joe,' said I, ‘when a man is
down, few hands are extended to him.’
“The jockey as he chewed a straw,
smiled bitterly.
“ ‘Few hands—yes—that’s right,’ he
said, ‘but think of the feet.’ ”
Grown-Up Children.
It is not only the frivolous whom
the spirit of childishness is just now
leading astray. Silliness is the fash
ion even among the wise. Women
especially affect a kind of childish
shrewdness in talking of serious sub
jects. Like children who have the
habit of romancing, they lose the
sense of reality, and because they nev
er talk exactly as they think they be
gin to think exactly as they talk.—

rHOUSANDS VISIT TUI! CITY
Chief Apprehension Now Is That
Water May Cut Into Bayou,
Dividing the City.
Pine Bluff, Ark.—Property valued at
$25,000 toppled into the Arkansas
river here Sunday, and the caving
along the bank was still in progress
at a late hour Sunday night, but the
general feeling among those who have
kept in close touch with the situa
tion is one of hopefulness.
The chief damage Sunday occurred
on East Barraque street, between
Texas and Louisiana streets, where
some 200 feet of ground went into
the river. At this point was located
the grocery store of Joe Krumpner,
which on Saturday night was more
than 50 feet from the river’s brink.
At an early hour Sunday morning
this store went into the river and for
more than 100 feet the ground be
yond the former location of the store
has caved.
But the chief apprehension is felt
over the possibiliy of the river cut
ting through a narrow neck of ground
into the bayou which separated Pine
Bluff into the east and west side. Near
ly a block of ground now separates
the river from this bayou, but it is
stated that it has been undermined to
a considerable extent, and that the
ground underneath the surface is of a
very unstable character. If the wat
er from the river reaches this de
pression the bridges of the Iron Moun
tain and the Cotton Belt railways will
be endangered and the interior of
the city will be at the mercy of the
river.
considerable indignation is felt
wnong the business people of the city
aver the publication of erroneous re
ports regarding the situation in this
city. In Little Rock, Memphis, St.
Louis and other cities reference has
been made to the “Pine Bluff floods,”
which, the business men declare, is
misleading. Pine Bluff is located on
high ground and it is a physical im
possibility for the waters of the river
to reach the level of the streets.
Many feel that an injustice has been
done the city, unintentionally in all
probability, and an effort was made
Sunday afternoon to secure an agree
ment among the newspapers to refuse
to give out information which might
be made the basis for wild-eyed stor
ies relative to the damage done. Only
a few of the papers have used these
storis, however, and it was decided
to ask that hereafter an effort be
made to print only the facts, or to
refrain front any mention of the si.ua
tion.
By some it is feared that when the
waters begin to recede additional dam
age will result, by reason of undermin
ing said to have already ben done, but
the more conservative see but little
cause for alarm in this feature.
Simons is Greeted As President.
Port au Prince.—Gen. Antoine Si
mon, at the head of his revolution
ary army of 8,000 men, was received
Saturday at the outskirts of Port au
Prince by a delegation of the Commit
tee of Public Safety and he proceed
ed to make his entry into the city at
8 o'clock. He was quietly welcomed
by the delegation and presented with
a crown of palms.
He received a great ovation as he
proceeded to the cathedral to assist
in the celebration of a Te Deurn.
When he and his escort emerged from
the edifice after the service the dem
onstration reached a great height. He
was given the salute of the president
of the country, bells were tolled and
the people greeted him with cries of
“Long live the president.”
It was expected that he would es
tablish himself at the national palace
after entering the city. However, he
set up his headquarters in a residence
on the Champ de Mars. He and his
escort were received with wild de
light wherever they went.
The insurgent force is now occupy
ing the various barracks. The infan
try is supplied with rifles and ammu
nition, but the cavalry is short of ma
chetes.
The 8,000 men now in its ranks have
been well organized by Gen Simon
and it is very doubtful if a force suffi
cient to oppose it could be mustered.

Doctor Shot in Back.
Teague, Tenn.—Renewal of an old
feud is held responsible for the mur
der of Dr. Cullen M. Cottongim, a
highly respected citizen, here Sunday,
and Sam, Gus and Jeff Moody, three
brothers, and Levi Jackson, a friend
of the Moody brothers, were placed
under arrest and taken to the Harde
man county jail. It seems that the
tragedy was a renewal of an old feud
which has stirred the Teague neigh

LAME BACK PRESCRIPTION
The increased use of "Toris” for
lame back and rheumatism is causing
considerable discussion among the
medical fraternity. It is an almost in
fallible cure when mixed with cer
tain other ingredients and taken prop
erly. The following formula is effec
tive: “To one-half pint of good
whiskey add one ounce of Toris Com
pound and one ounce Syrup Sarsapa
rilla Compound. Take in tablespoon
ful doses before each meal and be
fore retiring.” #
Toris compound is a product of the
laboratories of the Globe Pharmaceu
tical Co., Chicago, but it as well as the
other ingredients can be had from any
good druggist.
WHAT WOULD HE HAVE SAID?
“Get up, Jack. You mustn’t cry

Sunday school—and you don’t.”
Sniffles and Nerves.
Keep to yourself during warm,

that an Atchison man and wife dearly
love each other. She is a perfect lady,
and apologizes . when she says
“shucks.” But one night, when they
were sitting on the porch, presum
ably enjoying the tender twilight, she
suddenly picked up a stool and threw
it at his head. “I am not insane,” she
said, calmly, when he turned a fright
ened gaze on her; “I am simply worn
out by the manner in which you sniffle
at the end of every sentence!”—At

An old lady was accosted in a Lon

| fined-looking stranger, who effusively
claimed her as a friend. “I really
{ don't believe you remember me!” she
] exclaimed, reproachfully, and the old
lady, never doubting that her memory
was at fault, confessed that she could
not quite recall the name. ‘‘Ah, but I
have changed it since you knew me,”
said her interlocutor, gayly, and after
a few more lively speeches she passed
on, having possessed herself mean
while of the old lady’s purse.
Not Anxious at All.
‘‘One word of our language that is
almost always misused,” said the par
ticular man, “is ‘anxious.’ You will
hear people exclaim how anxious they
are to see a certain play, or anxious
to get a new hat, or anxious to take a
trip to Europe, when they are not anx
ious at all, but eager or desirous. If
anxious were used only in the right
place we wouldn’t hear it half so
often.”_
