Human Sympathy Won. An execution for S0 that netted the creditor 16 cents was the result of aSheriff s sale at Columbia, Pa., Saturday.

As the climax of an old business and political fend. State Senator W, E, Goebel, a neighbor and personal friend of Secre tary Carlisle, shot and killed Cashier John Sanford, ofthe Farmers' and Trad ers' National Hank in front ofthe First National Bank iu Covington, KyM one day last week. Nothing since the famous Goodloe Swope affair at Islington, in which looth men died, has created such a sensation in the State, while locally there is grave fear that more bloodshed will follow. Iks-ides being rivals in business Ge lieL lieing a director in the Citizens' Na tional Bank, the two principals in the tragedy were bitter political foes having espoused opposite sides or a local political squabble. Personal encounters between memlcrsorthe two factions have been frequent, and for three years probably 100 citizens have been constantly carry ing pistols on Saturday an article appeared In a Covington paper, in which a bitter attack was made upon Sanford. The publication aroused Sanford and his friends, who de clared that Goebel wrote it. To-day Senator Goebel accompanied by Attorney General Hendrick, orKentucky and Frank Helm, president of the First National Bank, was on the way to the Citizens' Bank. Wheu they reached the door of Helm's bank, there stood Sanford. He shook hands with Hendricks using his left hand. Then he asked Goebel if he wrote an article attacking him. Goe liel answered, "I did." Immediately Sanford fired, the ball passing through Goelool's trousers Quick as a flash, Goclnsl leveled his revolver and fired. To do so he had to place the pistol lieneath Helm's chin. The ball crashed through Sanford's forehead, w ho fell in the doorway of the lank, blood oozing from his wound Helm's chin w as bad ly powder burned. Great commotion prevailed instantly, the street and bank being crowded at the time. During the confusion Senator G.oe bel walked to the station house, and after summoning his brother by telephone, turned to the officer in charge and said : "I wish to surrender myself. I have shot and killed John SanfonL" Chief Goodson placed Goebi-1 under ar rest. The Senator was calm at first, but later Iwnne excited. At first he refused to discuss the affair, but finally gave his version of it. -Here is tho reason I killed him," ho exclaimed, as ho showed w here the ball of Sanford's pistol had passed through his trousers tearing away a jiortion of cloth. SAXKOKD WAS LVIN'O IN WAIT. "He w as lying in w ait for me," con tinued the Senator. "I saw him w hen I reached the gas oll'iee, aliout 20 feet away from the steps ofthe First National Bank. I was on my way to the Citizens Nation al Bank w ith my friend Hendricks. As soon as I saw him reach for his revolver, I reached for mine. President Helm and General Hen dricks give similar versions of the trag edy. Goeliel is unmarried, and Sanford leaves a wife, a sister of the famous Tom Marshall, of Kentucky, and several chil dren, one a grown son. loebel was sub sequently acquitted by the coroner's jury.

From Germany comes the first official news of a great American discovery said to cure the most dreaded of diseases consumption and cancer. Coiibiil General IteKuy, of Berlin, iu a report to the utate department says the dieoveiy. which was announced late in March iu the most serious and tiu-tworthy medical weekly in Germany, is likely to receive consider able attention at the coming medical congress in Munich. 1 he discovery was ma le by I'r. Ixiiis tValdstein, of New York, a brother of the famous arcbasil-igist, I r. Charles Wal stein. The new treatment, which has been perfected by studies abroad, consists of injecting minute doses of pilocarpine until the lymphatic system is stimulated and the w hite corpuscles of the blood overcome the poisonous particles which produce disease. I)r. Waldstein's researches have gone to the fountain whence the healthful white corpuscles spring and enlivening its action and pro ductiveness restores condition of the blood destroying poisonous germs The importance of the discovery is thought to be far Ixyond those of Pasteur, Koch aud others Frank Shcpardson, an engineer on the Southern Pacific I!y., who resides at Ios Angeles, Cab, was troubled w ith rheumatism for a long time.

A notable case of the efficacy of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Hem- edvisthat f the Rev. I. W. Hill of this town. Some years ago he was suf fering with a cancer of hong standing, on his lip, and finally concluded to have it removed. In speaking of his case Pastor Hill said: "About three weeks previous to having the ocntion performed, I purchased Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Ilemedy and continued tak ing it for some time after the cancer was removed. Ten long years have passed since then and no trace of the ugly thing has returned. I speak with knowledge in the highest terms of Dr, Kennedy's Favorite .Remedy as lcing able to cure the troubles for which it is prepared." One of our local phj sicians said, in explaining the demand for Dr. Kenne dy's Favorite Remedy: "It acts as a nerve and blood food, and to my knowledge it has made many perma nent cures of Xervous Debility, Sleep lessness, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism and of the sickness jieculiar to women, where other treatments have failed.

Many mothers who wonder "why some f the children are sick all the time," can find the cause underneath the floor. Xearly all houses have cel lars Here are stored all sorts of thinsrs for w inter use dead things and live things, articles to eat and fuel to burn, o!d lioxes and barrels, heaps of c.wtl, bins of vegetables, etc. The coal and wjod are constantly sending up foul gmses. Many of the vegetables undergo decay, ami add greatly to the for mations of disease producing elements. The germs of decay are so plentiful and work with such rapidity that ordinary precautions as to cleanliness will not render absolutely safe a cellar located underlie ith a dwelling. Again, fruits aud vegetables breathe in a manner similar to animals and so exhaust as well as contaminate the sur rounding air. It is popularly supposed that plants purify the air iu which they are growing, and so they do to a cer tain extent by using up some ofthe cir bonic acid gas; but they also con tain sonij oxygen, and in in this way they are a drain upon the life-giving elein 'lit to the air. Rut after a fruit or a vegetable has reached maturity, it oeses ti consume carUinic acid gas while still consuming ox3-gcn.

At Gettysburg, while the fight was the hottest, said General Gordon, I noticed a handsome young Federal of ficer, whose bravery was conspicuous After the liattle had subsided I found this gallant soldier lying on the field. He was dyii.g and tagged me to send a message to the Union lines. His wife had decided to share with him the fortunes of war and was at the of ficers' quarters in the Federal army. I ordered my men to take the wound ed officer to our camp and to make him as comfortable as possible. Then I sent some men witli a flag of truce to the Union lines with the message from the dying officer to his wife. Iite that night Hie party returned, and the mel ting of the dying husband and his young wife was the most affect ing scene which I have ever witnessed. I was compelled to go elsewhere, but tafore I left the sorrowing collide I as certained that the name of the wound ed officer was Major Harlow, of Xew York. I often thought of the sad in cident, which made upon me one of the most vivid impressions that I re ceived in the war. Shortly afterward a cousin of mine w hose name and initials were the same as mine was killed in the I tattle. The war closed. Ten years after ward I was with a distinguished gen tleman in Xew York who invited me to be present at a dinner he was to give that evening. Among the guests to w hom I was introduced was a cer tain Major Rarlow. I upiosed that he was a cotisiu of the man whom I had left dying on the field at Gettys burg with his devoted w ife licside him. I once knew a Major Rarlow, I said to my new acquaintance. I once knew a General Gordon, he answered. Rut the Major Rarlow I knew is dead, I added. And the General Gordon whom I knew is tils.) dead, he answered. I started to tell him the story of the Major Rarlow whom I had left dying on the field at Gettysburg w hen he in terrupted me, exclaiming: My God, General Gordon, I am that man ! Ritt you were killed at Antie taiu. And I know you died at Gettysburg, said I, for I saw you. Mutual explanations followed. It seems strange to me that the warmest friendship of my life should have be gun in those awful scenes of blood and carnage at Gettysburg. The simple service that I performed that day when I sent for that dying soldier's wife lias made M:ijr Rarlow and his wife the dearest friends I have on earth, not withstanding I wore the gray and he the blue. Tax Burdens Borae by Cuba- It is little wonder Cuba frequently re volts against the government ofSpnin. The island people are lnxed very heav ily for the support of the foreign gov ernment, and get little in return through that government. Taxation w ithout representation haslieen a fruit ful cause of revolution and rctallion in al! times. In all Spain takes aNrnt vo),0iiVi" ayearotitof Cul, which, in addition to the cost of its own government, is a heavy burden. There is a stamp tax on all drafts, checks promissory notes, hills of exchange and legal documents. Hotels are taxed 5 cents a day for every guest. Merchants must ay 1 for the first page of their day books and Hi cents for each additional Iige. The tight little island also charges 1 ad ministration fit's for every Kisscngcr that lands on its soil, and exacts anoth er dollar from him tafore he can gi t out again. Such exactions an; itrageous. If they were necessary to maintain the government machinery of the jieople they might be tame with will, but when nearly all the revenues are ex ported to Spain to support an army to keep Cuba in subjection it is a galling hardship. It will be a piece of good fortune for the Cubans when Spain !e conies involved in some international complications with one of the great lowers that w ill secure the itidcpc ml; ence of Cuba.

Dead lh Warning from III Kidneys-Aa Iruu-Worker SunVriiig Hi; gospel of health means the perfect action of all the or gans of the body. and there is no one of these organs that has so much influ ence over ail others as the kidneys. These delicate little filters of the blood get out of order on the slightest prov ocation, and un less they are brought back to healthy action speedily, the uric acid and other ftoisonous matter that they ought to carry off, but don't, is sure to cause dis ease of a serious nature. The note of warning invariably comes from the luick. Backache, or lame back. is nothing in the world but the failure of the kidneys to do their duty. In all such cases IOoau's Kidney Tills cure by remov ing the cause, and restoring the kidneys to healthy action. Among the thousands who have been cured after years of suffering by this won derful little remedy, is Mr. John Harris, a skilled iron worker in the Wayne Iron Works. Mx. Harris lives at 53 South Twenty-third street, Pittsburg, and has been troubled with kidney disease for several years. '"I thought for a long time that it was rlieunip.tisiii that caused the terrible pains in my back and shoulders. I could not sleep at night or work in day time. My urine was discolored and un natural. I suffered almost constantly. Finally I became satisfied that the uric acid in ray blood was causing nil the trouble. 1 got a bottle of Doan's K'dney Pills and felt relief after the firiifewdosts It was a very short time until I was com pletely cured. I cannot praise Doan's Kidney Pills enough." Yon can get Doan's Kidney Pills at your druggist's at 50 cents a box, or they will be sent postpaid on receipt of price by Foster-Milburn Co., sole agents, Buf falo, X, Y.

One of the best know n women in Chicago, residing In the north division, went to the polling place on the first day of registration to b? enrolled as a voter. As she went to the carriage she oI served that the second coachman was on the tax. Then she remembered that Patrick had taken a leave of alseii-e for a day. Arrived at the polling place, she found Patrick in charge of the regis tration Isook. He did ii'it rise when she entered; neither did he p it his two lingers up to his forehead and ad dress her as "Mum." Patrick evident ly grasped the full humor of the situa tion, but he maintained his dignity and administered the oath. "Phize give me your name madam," he said. She did so, "Where do you reside ?" She gave him the numtar on Lake Shore drive and calmly answered the other iitcsliotis as to birthplace and time of resideii cc iu the State, coun ty, and precinct. Then she went away. Again, on election day, the coach ment put her through the course of piesliouing, and showed her how to A.l.t I.... I...
