Simply a Walk Over.
From the MlfMtitown Herald.
But four weeks remain from next
Tuesday of the campaign, which has
been one of the quietest we ever re
member In Pennsylvania politics. It
Is true that this Is an off year, and
that the popocrats were snowed under
bo effectually last fall by a majority
very closely rubbing 300,000, that there
Is not much Interest manifested. As for
the Republican candidates, It Is simply
a walkover. It Is true that, stimulated
by the side show of Dr. Swallow, the
popocrats have placed a ticket again In
the field, which the red headed and
lopeful chairman, Garman, declares
fias a good chance of being elected, but
lis his assurances are all talk, without
a lase to reBt upon, the mongrel popo
cratlc party take no stock In them.
A western editor suggests that after
all Bryan may be right when he as
serts that the price of silver and wheat
remain together. These conditions are
Burely getting closer; they will each

CAPTAIN MURPHY SHOWS UP.

Wilmington, Del.. Oct. G.-On Sept.
.2, 1S06, Captain Edward Murphy, of the
I tamer Laurada, was arreBted In thla
city on a charge of engaging In a
Cubat- filibustering expedition. Ho was
hld in $1,500 hall for trial on Juno 8 of
this ear, Ralph de Soto becoming his
surety. On June 8 the captain failed to
appear for trial, and since that time the
court has ordered his ball bond for
feited and has dismissed the motion to
remove the forfeiture. Yesterday Cap
tain Murphy appeared before Judge
IJraCford, and through his counsel, H.
II. Ward, offered to surrender himself
nnd to give new hall for tho next trial
term.
The proceedings was somewhat novel,
for after discussing the questions In
volved It was decided to give a hearing
in the matter on Thursday morning,
when H. II. Ward for Captain Murphy
and his bondsman, Ralph de Soto, and
District Attorney Lewis C. Vandegrlft,
for the government, are to bo ready
with their arguments. It Is the Inten
tion of Mr. Ward to move for the ex
oneration of the bail in case the court
accepts the surrender of Captain
Murphy.

Now Without n Dollar.
Cleveland, Oct. B. John J, Shlpperd,
who for several years has been promi
nent as an Investment broker and street
railway promoter, was arrested yester
day on the charge of embezzlement. He
was taken before a justice of the peaco
on a state warrant and released on
110,000 ball.
The warrant was Issued at tho in
stance of Frank Dellaas Robtson, and
the charge grew out of the business
dealings of Shlpperd and Itoblson, who
have been closely associated for several
years In street railway enterprises In
this city and elsewhere. The warrant
distinctly charges that Shlpperd em
bezzled $183,288.15 of the personal prop
erty of Robinson, In addition to 112
street railway bonds of the value of
$95,200.
At the same time a petition was filed
In common pleas court asking for a re
ceiver for the brokerage firm of Charles
H. Potter & Co., with which Shlpperd
was heavily Interested and of which he
was the manager.
In the petition it was charged that
Shlpperd and tho firm of Potter & Co.
had oonverted to their own use the
proceeds of securities left in their hands
by Mr. Roblson. Theso securities In
eluded three sets of Fort Wayne, Ind
street railway bonds, and the sum for
which Mr. Roblson asks Judgment Is
991,761.15. Included In these bonds
were 112 $1,000 bonds of the value of
$95,200, and upon which one of the
charges of embezzlement against Shlp
perd Is based. Mr. Roblson also repre
sents In his petition that the firm of
Charles II. Potter & Co. Is Insolvent,
and that it owes to about 20 banks In
the vicinity of this city and to indi
viduals a sum aggregating about 2,
000,000, which it cannot pay. It is al
leged that tho securities left with
Shlpperd by Mr. Roblson were hy
pothecated by him at banks for the
purpose of raising money with which
to carry on the various enterprises in
which he was Interested.
While awaiting the appearance of
his attorney, for whom he sent as soon
as arrested, Shlpperd was asked how
much ho owed Mr. Roblson. Ho re
piled: "That I do not know. The amounts in
these transactions are so enormous I
lost all track of them a long time ago.
I am now hopelessly lost. By bringing
this action against me Mr. Roblson has
ruined me. A year ago I would have
taken my oath that I was worth over
$200,000 over my Investments. Today I
have not a cent In the world, not even
enougti to hire an attorney. Knowing
that I have not a dollar, Mr. Roblson
now makes me the scapegoat In the
hope that others interested will shell
out the money he wants. Negotiations
have been going on for a year with Mr.
Roblson to settle these matters, but he
has purposely held back until now. For
a year I have had all I could do to earn
enough money for the dally bread of
my family by doing a little scalping on
the street. I know not what to do now.
The disgrace, of course, falls keenly
upon my family, but I do not care, for
I am not guilty. I owe lots of money to
hundreds of others besides Mr. Robl
son." At first Shlppered stubbornly refused
to permit anybody to go on his bond.
He said he was ready and willing to go
to Jail. Finally, ibwever, he concluded
to accept ball, and his bond was signed
by two friends.

My wife was reading of a caso liko mine
cured by Hood's Snrsaparilla, and she
advised mo to try it. I began taking It
nnd when I had used a few bottles I
found relief from my suffering. Oh,
how thankful I am for this relief I I am
stronger than I have ever been in my life.
I am in tho best of health, havo a good
appetite and am a new man altogether."

!! is an old saying, as trua as it ovor was.
p But whether it is true or not there's no
! earthly use wasting money. Especially
in snoe Dtiying.
Some stores charge fof name ; some for
style ; some for gfced.
We're Not Selfish.
We're satisfied with a little profit j we
know how to put in style without putting
in price ; we don't charge for name. We
charge simply and solely for shoe- all
shoe good shoe.
Our School Shoes
are good examples of our fair-pricing.
Youths' shoes, 75c, $1, $1.25.

Children's shoes, 50c, 75c, 1, $1.25.
Misses' shoes, $1, 1.25, $1.50.
They're built well ; built to withstand
the tough usage they get. Shoes you'll
be glad you bought ; shoes we're glad to
handle.
