KNOWLEDGE
Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many who live bet-
ter than others and enjoy life more with
less expenditure by more promptly
adapting the world’s best products to
the needs of physical being will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas-
ant to the taste the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax-
ative ; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
mid permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid-
neys Liver and Bowels without weak-
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug-
gists in 50c and $1 bottles but it is man-
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only whose name is printed on every
package also the name Syrup of Figs
and being well informed you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

VOORHEES TALKS.
He Thinks the Senate Will Come to a
Vote in Two Weeks.
The debate on the repeal bill now !
' being carried on in the Senate lias '
1 reached a point where the people are |
| beginning to expect sometliiug to be I
.done. Mr. Voorhees being the chief
engineer in the matter they naturally
look to him to take the initial step.
It is therefore the ludiana statesman
to whom the public at large turn for
information and enlightenment on
this grave and important subject iu
conversation on this subject with a
prominent newspaper man at Wash-
ington yesterday Mr. Voorhees ex-
pressed himself as still determined to
press the repeal bill to as early a con-
sideration as possible.
“It is however necessary” he said
to observe the courtesies required by
the traditions and rules of the Senate
and I really believe by showing due
regard to these points we shall be
able to make greater progress than if
we violated them. There is undoubt-
edly scope yet left for considerable le-
gitimate debate and there is no means
if there were a disposition of press-
ing the question to a vote before eve-
ry Senator has had an opportunity to
say what he may wish to say. We
have not really consumed much time
in the discussion of this question as
the country seems to think and I
have every reason to believe that we
shall all be able to reach a vote in a
comparatively short time.”
When pressed for an opinion as to
the probable time of a vote being
reached on the bill iut.heSenate.beex-
pressed the belief that the same would
in all likelihood be within the next
two weeks.
THE LARGEST SHOW ON EARTH.

The great out-door field of tented

Sells Brothers are “equal partners”
in the division. In fact in the ex-
clusive possession of many rare crea-
tures and noted performers they hold
first place and their visit to Texar-
kana on Saturday Oct. 14. is surpass-
ingly rich iu well-founded promises
of elaborate and enjoyable entertain-

The Brockinridge Scandal.
It is now reported in a Louisville
special that W. C. P. Breckinridge of
Kentucky will deny that he is respon-
sible for the downfall of Miss Made
line Pollard who is stieing him for
seduction and breneli of promise: that
he had nothing to do with her until
he knew icr character was not good.
The same specinl also says that Col.
Breckinridge will pi'ovp that Miss
Pollard t'oul'' sell (o him that she bad
been seduced by .lames Rodes who at
that time was defraying the expenses
of her schooling and avowed her in-
tention of lending the life which she
has pursued.
Breckinridge has no excuse for his
conduct with Miss Pollard as he had
a living wife when lie first begun his
attentions with her and he will stand
before the country and the constitu-
ency of Lis district ns a dlsgtaced
rake if (he senndalous charges against
him arc even half way proven.
Plotting to Murder.
A deepieable ami cowardly scheme
to murder the olllcltil head of this
nutloti and two or more ot his chief
assistants was laid bare in the local
pension oflice in the federal building
jnt Washington yesterday. A certain
1 attorney has been urging the old sol-
diers to organize mid to assassinate! res
ident (Irover Cleveland and .Secretary
Hoke Smith of the Department of the
interior. The man is reputed to he
of sound mind but in the light of bls
Infamous scheme his reputation on
that point n ill likely need iuvestiga-
I tiou. The pension attorney has been
enraged at Secretary Smith’s endeav-
| or to make the pension list a roll of
honor. He says it is an attempt to
I starve the old soldiers and that the
only way to stop it is to assassinate
the President and Secretary. The
I pension agent is not a Pittsburger it
i is said although his identity is kept
a secret for the present. The entire
matter has been reported to Washing-
ton nnd has been investigated by the
authorities. The foolish attorney has
made himself liable to charges of in-
I citing treason.

DYING IN LINE.
Cherokee Boomers Over Como by
Heat While Awaiting
Resignation.
Arkansas City Kan. Sept 14:—
The arrivals of home-seekers on the
Cherokee Strip are largely in excess
of the registrations up to the present
time. Fifteeen hundred men were
registered yesterday and fully four
thousand arrived at this point. At
Orlando aud Hennessy the same thing
was observed. The Hunnewell booths
are closed on acconnt of the supply of
water becoming exhausted. But lit-
tle demand is made on the Kiowa of-
fice. At Stillwater water and food
are scarce and still the arrivals in-
crease.
It is safe to estimate one hundred
thousand people near or about the
Strip are ready for the rush. Some
place the number at double that and
they may be right. The Strip is cov-
ered with sooners all of whom have
registration certificates at least those
captured have.
There were two deaths in the lines
at the booths here yesterday a young
man named Adams from Winfield
and an old man from Missouri.
The sun is apparently hotter today
than at any time and the chances tor
fatalities are greater. Orlando makes
the same report. The booth idea has
been demonstrated to be almost a
cruel one causing much unnecessary
suffering. Six trains all loaded ar-
rived this forenoon while the constant
stream of wagons on the country
roads indicate that this is but the
commencement of the rush.
This morning at 8 o’clock there
were fully 8000 people in the tour
lines at the booths. This does not in-
clude those leaving their places early
and to whom tickets have been given
and who came into town for changes
of clothing aud for something to eat.
There is a constantly growing irrita-
ble feeling among those sweltering in
that never-to-be-forgotten lane.
Threats are freely made that unless
there is an improvement made in tlie
service the booths will be destroyed
and the clerks driven away. There
were three deaths from exhaustion
this forenoon and the worst has not
come.
The fatalities have come so fast that
the question as to their identity is no
longer asked. The number is the in-
formation desired. At Olando south
of here the same condition is found
only at that place here is scarcity of
food and water. Forty car loads of
people from the north were poured
into Arkansas City this noon aud 23
car loads at Cladwell making over
4000 by rail alone.
Breckinridge Candidacy.
It is currently reported among the
knowing ones at the national capital
that Congressman W. C. I’. Breckin-
ridge (he of the silver tongue) will
leave Washington for Kentucky with-
in the next ten days to stand for re-
election to the Federal Congress. It
is also said that he will take the
stump next summer to make the
tight meet Miss Pollard’s charges and
deny adsolutely that he is the father
of her children. He will try to prove
that he never introduced Miss Pollard
to Miss Luke P. Blackburn as his fu-
ture wife and that the latter never so
stated to Geu. Duke or anybody else.
Miss Pollard meanwhile is calmly
awaiting the trial. She says she has
many witnesses high in the social
world here ready to testify that
Breckinridge not only publicly stated
that she was to be his wife but intro-
duced her to them as his bride. The
only compromise she will take is that
Breckinridge shall sigujhercomplaint
thus acknowinding the truth of the
charges. She receives daily letters
from all parts of lhe country express-
ing sympathy and tendering assist-
ance.
Yellow Eover Scourge.
A special telegram from Brunswick
Ga. says: W. Killaln n German shoe-
maker of this district was taken sick
yesterday in his shop which was also
his sleeping room. He had been com-
plaining for several days previous.
He was living alone. He received no
treatment until the Odd Fellows learn-
ed of his illness and gave him imme-
diate attention; The physician railed
in treated him for gastric fever. Ills
death thia morning caused some ru-
mor and Mayor Lamb called in Sur-
geon Guiteras to bold an autopsy.
This was done live local physicians
assisting. The result was they pro-
nouncod that Killaln had died with
yellow fever.
In the afternoon another suspicious
death was reported at the sd»y hospi-
tal the person VeUig a Norwegian be-
ing t;euted for consumption. He had
befcu out some time however. Dr
I Guitcras after holding an autopsy
I pronounced it a case of yellow fever.
Later in the day yet another case
was reported greatly increasing the
already intense excitement. The
health officer Dr. Guiteras refuses to
make any statement for publication.
Crop Reports.
The weekly crop review of the sev-
eral more important agricultural
States which has just been issued
from Washington gives the following'
report for the three adjoining states
of Arkansas Louisiana and Texas:
Arkansas—Worms and drouth have
seriously damaged cotton; rains the
latter part of the week wore beniileial
to late crops except cotton.
Louisiana — Weather containin'-
very dry in northwest portion where
the cotton crop is reported short;
rains in other localities generally ben-
eficial.
Texas—Cotton prospects have
changed very little since last report
picking is progressing rapidly late
cotton and top crop is light in most
parts of the state; stock water is
scarce in the western partofthe state.
A Dastard’s Crime.
Bowling Green. Kv. Sept. 14.—
A miscreant shot into the Louisville
aud Nashville train bet ween this city
and Louisville while it was running nt
full speed. The ball struck Editor
Bailey Barksdale of the To-
bobacco Leaf Chronicle of
Clarksville on the head and made a
serious but it is thought not a fatal
wound. The train was stopped but
the dastard who did the shooting
could not be found. The wounded
editor arrived here at 9 o’clock bleed-
ing aud very ill but physicians say he
will recover.
Y. M. C. A.
Rev. Arthur Higby Rector of the
St. Junies Episcopal church of this
city will conduct services at the Y.
M. C. A. hall at 11 o’clock on Sunday
morning. A cordial invitation to at-
tend is extended to all.
Caught in the Tolls
Os that lurking foe chills and fever
we often struggle vainly to free our-
selves from its clutch. Palliatives
there are without number but if you
want a real remedy as of course you
do if afflicted with this abominable
malady hasten to buy and persistently
use Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. If
you follow this suggestion permanent
restoration to health will reward you.
Every form of malarial disease is per-
manently eradicated by the Bitters
which is likewise a reliable safeguard
against maladies of this type. Not
alone on this continent but through-
out the tropics it is justly regarded as
a complete antidote to miasma poison
in air or water. No less effective is it
for disorders of the stomach liver and
bowels rheumatism kidney com-
plaints and nervousness. No one so-
journing in a malarious region or
who is subjected to outdoor exposure
in rough weather or to excessive men-
tal or physical strain should be willt-
otit this fine defensive tonic.

EXPLANATION.
For a month past we have been
much worried and vexed at the rath-
er poor print of the Democrat. Ev-
ery effort has been nrade to find out
and stop the defect and at last we
are truly glad to say success is at-
tained and we now again present our
old-time neat and perfectly printed
newspaper it has always been our
boast that no one should excel us in
sending out a neatly printed and well
arranged newspaper.
ATTEMPTED WRECK.
A dastardly attempt was made on
yesterday to wreck u train on the
Texas and Pacific railway between
this city and lhe Cotton Belt crossing
eight miles west of here. The culprit
a white tramp was caught in the act
and his arrest accomplished by the
section boss and his crew who have
charge of the road bed at that point.
It seems that the section crew came up-
on the wonld be wrecker just as ho
was in the act. of drawing the last
spikes from the rail by the re-
moval of which he intended accom-
plishing his dastardly design. They
found the crow-bar lying ( lose by
which had been used by him in the
work. Only three spikes remained in
the rail which of itself would have
insured the wreck of the first 'rain to
pass over the defective spot. The
prisoner was brought to this city aud
turned over to Sheriff Moores
Cpon being arraigned before Jus-
tice Haywood of Hie Westside for
preliminary examination it was as-
certained that tlie man's name is J. W.
Miller his home at some point in
Kentucky and that lie was making his
way to Wills Point Toxas when ar-
rested. After considering the facts
in the case Justice Haywood held the
defendant to answer to the Bowie
county grand jury in the sum of SSOO
in default of which he was this morn-
ing taken Io Boston and there confin-
ed in the county jail. The motive for
the crime lias not yet been definitely
ascertained as the culprit persists in
denying his guilt alleging that the
crime had been commit teed before his
arrival on the scene.
It covers a good deal of ground—
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov-
ery. And when you hear that it
cures so many diseases perhaps you
think “it’s too good to be true.”
But it’s Only reasonable. As a
blood-cleanser flesh-builder nnd
strength-restorer nothing like the
“Discovery” Is known to medical
science. The diseases that it cures
come from n torpid liver or impure
blood. For everything of this nature
it is the only guaranteed remedy. In
I lyspepsia Biliousness; all Broncal
Throat and Iting affections; every
form of Scrofula even Consumption
