La Vida and
P. D. Corsets
Shape and comfort are the twin requisites
in a corset. To look well and wear well a
corseb must bo comfortable. Oncu got the
correct model and you will not care to change.
The Lit Vlda and P. V , Cornets with their many different models , offer the widest
ranxo of choice. They are both the proper shape for tailor made gowns , made
of the beet materials , with genuine whale bone , and arc priced nt (2.75 ( to $7.50
each.
3orcta at half price and less than half price. There arc about 4 doien of these
corsets. In different styles , that mea-.is broken sizes. Hut It doesn't hurt the
goodness of the corsets a particle. Wo have too many styles , to Instead of filling
up sizes we drop the price to toll them quickly. Among them arc Loomer's
steam moulded corsets , Thomson's glove fitting , W , C. C. Royal Worcester , H.
& 0. , Kabo , W. 11. Regular prices were $1.00 and $1.75 , reduced to BOc each.

from the east , may Indicate a projected nt-
tack upon the railway below Colcnso. The
movement from the cast also suggests an

Military experts are Inclined to the opinion
that the troops at Cllcncoc nre only a form
of guard loft to attract the force under
Commandant Gcncrnl Joubert , while General
White's full strength Is concentrating at
Lndysmlth with a view of attacking the
Orange Free State force while General
Jolibort Is still forty mile ? away.
Storlce of British succ&ses In the Mafeklng
district are so persistent that In the absence
of contradiction from Hoer sources they
may bo accepted us true In the main , al
though the alleged killing of 300 Boers U
discredited.
Cronje HUM 1'Moner of Army.
Gcncrnl Cronje's troops nro regarded as
the flower of the Transvnnl forces and de
cisive fighting must occur on the western
border. If , as was Intimated In lust night's
dispatch , reliefs nre approaching from
Rhodesia , It will thereby not be long de
layed.
Apart from tbe dcslro to gain an Inlthl
advantage by capturing Mafeklng , and
thereby attracting the Dutch colonists , thu
object of the Boers In massing In Bechuan-
nlnnd IR doubtless duo to the fact that this
splendid stock country Is full of cattle , and
ns It l only sparsely settled , would give
the Transvaal a route by which to Import
arms and munitions by way of Walllsch bay ,
Damaraland , on the West African coast.
A dispatch from Pretoria asserts that thi ;
Transvaal government has cabled to Joseph
B. Robinson' the millionaire gold mlno
owner nnd chairman of tbo South African
Banking company , who Is now In London ,
to return to Johannesburg on pain of con
fiscation of Uls property. Mr. Robinson
characterizes the alleged threat as ridiculous.
Ho says he Is a British subject , that the
Transvnnl government has no right to de
mand his return and that his property has
not been and cannot bo confiscated.
Portugal , according to a dispatch from
Berlin , has given distinct assurances of Its
neutrality. A continuance of commerce
with the Transvaal , by way of Dclagoa bay ,
Is therefore secured.
l > I" Almost everything Is now In readiness for
the departure of troops from Southampton
tomorrow , when five transports , each carryIng -
Ing ' 1,000 mon , with officers , will start for
South Africa. The first will call at 1:30 : p.

According to the same advlcc a Dutch

llroiiKht Into Polities.
CLEVELAND , 0. , Oct. 19. Senator Ilnnna
Ifi a speech before the Fifth District Repub
lican club tonight defined his position re
garding the trusts. Oil this subject he said :
"Tho democrats tmy I am afraid to talk
about the trusts. That Efttlea It. I'm goIng -
Ing to talk about them. This combination
of capital for ono purpose or another Is not
a political question nt all , It Is a business
question nnd ought not to have been brought
Into politics. Wliwi our Industries were In
their Infancy , England and other countries
came along nnd told goods In this country at
prices ICBJ than asked in their own country.
"Then followed the protective tariff law
enacted by that friend of the worklngman ,
William McKlnlcy. Having secured this
protection American manufacturers went
abroad. They arc making rapid strides nnd
successfully competing with the whole world.
It Is cvltient they cannot continue to do BO
unless they have combined capital. Wo
ought to own and control our own merchant
vessels. Wo would then be In shape to make
with other nations
our own rates nnd compete
tions on an equal rating.
"Wo have reached n stage where wo arc
doing more exporting than Importing. The
last year was the first year In the history
of the country that this was true , but we
muK look to the future. Wo must stand
prepared for the changes that are bound to
come. This formation of combines IH
simply an evolution In business methods.
Should railways own their own steamship
lines there would bo a marked change in the
ratee. All this requires capital and such a
tremendous amount that no ordinary cor
poration could stand it.
"The so-called trusts are not new. They
have been found In England and Germany
as far back as 200 years nnd are Increasing.
Therefore , from a business standpoint ,
the formation of those combinations
In ono sense Is a step forward. The demo
crats will have you bellcvo that they are
terrible anacondas nnd will swallow us up.
"However , It the trusts nre a menace to
the country , what party hotter than the ro-
publlcan can give you relief ? When It comes
down to plain facts the various labor or
ganizations are n sort of trust and I believe
In them and always have. They nre , I be-
Hove , for the purpose of helping the In
dividual members. The employer should go
band In hand with the organizations of tha
employed. In that way much good could
be done. "

PHILADELPHIA , Oct. 19. Joshla It.
Adams of this city , who was nominated by
the republican elate convention last August
as a candidate for judge of the superior
court , tonight sent a letter to General Frank
Rocder , chairman of the republican state
central committee , withdrawing from the
ticket.
Mr. Adams' withdrawal la the sequel of
on attack made upon him by a Philadelphia
morning paper. Mr. Adams wns charged by
the paper with being the president of cor
porations , which are alleged to have swin
dled many persons In Pennsylvania and
other states. The newspaper continued the
attacks and Mr. Adams was urged by news
papers of both the big parties nnd.his .
friends to answer the charges. j
Yesterday he issued a long statement In an
swer to the accusations which 'ho branded
as being "unqualifiedly false. " He did not
deny bis connection with the alleged swind
ling concerns , but positively asserted that
ho had no knowledge that they were other
than legitimate enterprises , and when com
plaints reached him of 'questionable trans
actions on the part of the agents of the
companies he immediately withdrew from all
connection with the concerns.
Mr. Adams' withdrawn ! was decided on at
a conference held late this afternoon at the
office of Director of Public Safety English
In the city hall.
Several political leaders were present.
After the conference had been concluded.
Mr. Adams' letter was given out. Whether
he voluntarily withdrew from the ticket or
whether he WHS asked to do so could not bs
learned , as these who attended the meeting
would not discuss the subject.

Mrs. Bryan nnd the newspaper men who ac
companied the party through Kentucky
croascd the river from Covlngton last night ,
boarded the special train provided for the
thrco days' tour of Ohio nnd ran to Dayton
during the night , where the prlvnto car of
John R. McLean was attached. Today at
Groenvlllo , Darko county , Mr. Bryan deliv
ered his first address In Ohio , Thcro wns
an Immense crowd present.
The visiting pnrty was escorted to the
court hoviBo squaie. John R. McLean , the
democratic candidate for governor. Intro
duced Mr. Bryan , who said :
"If there was one reason for you voting
the democratic ticket In 1S96 there are six
teen reasons why you ehould do so this fall.
There waa nothing complained of In 189C
that cannot bo complained of now. The
same vicious principles advocated by the op
position In 1898 nre advocated today In this
campaign. The Chicago platform to which
you gave such loyal support In 189G IB still
the platform of the democratic party nnd
the platform of the Ohio democracy again
endorses that platform. I believe the planks
of that platform are atrongcr today than
when they were written. "
Mr. Bryan then entered Into an elaborate
defence of tbe Income tax and predicted a
popular endorsement of the proposition. He
cited the efforts of the government to raise
a revenue to conduct the Spanish war because -
cause of the decision of the supreme court
against the Income tax law.

M'KINLEY HOME FROM WEST

WASHINGTON , Oct. 19. President Mo-
Klnlcjr nnd party reached Washington nt
12:25 : , nearly an hour behind schedule , owing
to delay on the gMde In the Baltimore tun
nel. The party consisted of President and
Mrs. McKlnlcy , Secretary Long , Secretary
nnd Mrs. Hitchcock and Attorney General
Grlggg , AsDlatant. Secretary Cortclyou and
Mr. Flnney , private secretary to the secre
tary of the navy , members of the- press and
the Whlto House attendants. All but the
three cabinet officers mentioned had left the
party at various points on the rond. The
train was met at the station by Secretary
Root , Adjutant General Corbln , District Mar
shal Palmer nnd John AddUon Porter , secre
tary to the president.
Some anxiety wns caused at first by the
announcement that the train wne delayed
three-quarters of an hour near Baltimore ,
but It wns afterward learned that the only
trouble lay in the combination of n sharp
curve , heavy grade and wet rails In the tun
nel , which necessitated backing out to get
another engine.
The train was stopped , ns usual , on the
Sixth street siding outside the Pennsylvania
station. The president's carriage drove to
the door of the cnr nnd the president nnd
Mia. McKlnlcy stepped directly Into the car
riage and were driven at once to the White
Houec. Mrs. McKlnlcy 'was looking stronger
than on her return from her last trip west ,
and H wns agreed by the members of the
party that she had Improved In health on
the journey. *
Leaving Washington October I , the train
traveled n distance of 5,009 miles and passed
over the tracks of eighteen railway systems.
Arrangements for the trip were made by
the Pennsylvania Railroad company , which
furnished the entire equipment. The
itinerary having been arranged by the White
Hoiiso officials , George W. lloyil , assistant
general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania
system , put himself In communication with
the general passenger agents of the various
railways over which It was the wish Of thu
party to pass and a schedule waa quickly
nadc up. D. N. Bell , tourist agent of the
Pennsylvania system , was placed In charge
of the train with a corps of men from his
own road.
In order that the linmonso amount of tel-
: grnphlc correspondence originating on the
.rain might bo cxpcdltlously handled , the
Western Union Telegraph company sent with
.ho president as Its representative William
II. Young , night manager of the offices at
Washington. He had directly In charge all
of the official telegraphic correspondence of
: ho president and the members of the cab
inet , besides the dispatches of the repre
sentatives of the press.

NEW YORK , Oct. 10. Had the wind held
today the Columbia-Shamrock ecrlcs would
have been ended In three straight wins for
the dclendcV nnd the Irish cup-hunter would
ha\o sailed home without the trophy , beaten
ns decisively as nny former candidates. Only
the failure of the wind saved Shamrock
from a greater defeat than on Monday. Today
It was beaten on the run to the outer mark
five minutes nnd flfty-ono seconds , elapsed
time , nnd on the leg home , which would
have been n beat , but which , owing to a
shift of the wind , was a broad reach , Colum
bia sailed nway from It like n witch.
When the race wns declared off , about ten
mlnutrs before the expiration of the time
limit , Columbia was leading by three miles.
It was then four miles from tha finish. Had
the race been finished Shamrock would have
been beaten by about twenty minutes.
Sir Thomas' boat was very badly handled
today , In splto of the aggregation of talent
aboard of It. The two Kngllsh captains and
the captain of Emperor William's yacht ,
Meteor , failed to get Shamrock over the line
before this handicap gun was fired , and It
went Into the race penalized by two seconds
on that account. The additional ballast
which was put Into It yesterday seems to
have been n blunder on the part of Its man
agers , as It Increased the size of the body
to bo forced through the water and In the
light air tbnt prevailed today retarded , In
stead of Increased , lt speed. What Sham-
rook may bo able to do In rough weather
and a reefing wind Is still problematical ,
but after the drubbing It has received , the
exports are almost unanimous In the belief
that Columbia can take Its measures In light
airs or a gale.
The crew of Shamrock have given It up.
They are now convinced that wo have
the better boat. Hcfore thp race on Monday
they had the most supreme confidence In
their ability to win with Shamrock.
"There was no living with them , " Bald
one of the Yankee tnis on Shamrock's ten
der Lawrence. "They did not think their
boat would win ; they absolutely knew It.
They would not hear arguments. After they
returned from the race Monday they were
so sure that they would not speak to each
other. Now they nre frank enough to admit
that Columbia Is the better boat by ten min
utes over a thirty-mile course. "
Another Ilnuc Todny.
The boats will race again tomorrow and
oven If Columbia wins It is possible that
two more races will be run. A proposition
to this effect has been made and Sir Thomas
seems anxious that It bo carried out. Ho has
been greatly disappointed In the showing bin
boat has made , but believes It might do hot
ter over a triangular course In a heavy wind ,
and has said that ho would bo very pleased
to sail two inoro races.
This was a radiant day for those afloat.
Though a light haze hung over the horizon
not a cloud flecked the sky. A ten-knot
land breeze blew out of the northwest and
the foam-tipped wavelets running on the
gentle ground swell shimmered In the bright
sun. A big holiday crowd went out to wit
ness what all supposed would be tha last of
the CUP series.
The course today was laid fifteen miles be
fore the breeze , southeast to south , straight
out to sea. By maneuvering behind the line
Captain Burr bested the talent aboard the
challenger , sanding Columbia flying across
the line twenty-seven seconds ahead ofhls ,
adversary. So badly had Shamrock miscal
culated that the handicap gun boomed two
seconds before the green boat crossed and
It sailed away with that penalty In addition
to the sixteen seconds It allows the new
wonder.
The race to the outer mark was exciting.
Both yachts carried balloon and their largest
clubtopealls drawing. But as the wind had
drawn a little to the southward , Instead of
keeping away for the mark they made almost
a triangular race of It. Without setting
their spinnakers they luffed sharply to star
board , each striving for the weather gauge.
Columbia showed Its rival a fleet pair of
heels , gaining gradually from the start. For
almost nn hour the luffing was continued.
Shiimiock was badly beaten In its attempt
to get to the windward.
After watching the yachts run before the
wind for nn hour , during which the breeze
died down to five knots and Ices , the excur
sion fleet turned ahead and gathered about
the float , 'to wltnefB the turn. ( By the time
they had lined up the big yachts could hardly
be Been. Through the. haze they looked like
phantom pyramids. The wind kept failing
nnd there wns a long wait.
Drifting ; .Matcli.
The balloons of the big sloops bellied In
and out , shivered , collapsed and the race
was degenerating Into a drifting match ns
they approached the mark. The challenger
was directly astern of Columbia trying with
Its mountains of canvas to blanket the tow
ering tails of the Yankee. But Colum
bia was a wizard. Somehow It managed to
get wind enough from somewhere to keep
It slipping through the- water and in valti
Shamrock tried to overtake It. The yachts
were coming the last mile. The white boat
bore round the mark in nuccnllko manner ,
and fled away. Shamrock was utterly be
calmed for a full minute. H must have been
a minute of Intense chagrin aboard the chal
lenger , and the patriots could not but feel
a sense of pity for It. Shamrock
went round the mark six mltiutes and
eighteen seconds after Columbia. About
three and ono half hours had been con
sumed and there appeared no chance of fin
ishing the raco. A southward wind picked
up.
Columbia sailed away from Us rival like
a ghost ship , leaving It far astern , Increasing
tbo dlrtanco between them fo rapidly that
when the race was declared oft at 4:19 : It
was leading by three miles.

was recently arrested In lown and nt once
signified his willingness to return for trial
without requisition papers , nnd Sheriff Cole
Immediately went after him. The young
man IH a fine looking fellow and does not
have the appearance of a murderer , nor
ono who has been oppressed by n KUllty
conscience. He was loth to talk about thu
murder nnd was placed In n cell at the
station over nlirlit.
The killing grew out of a dlfllcultv over
Cheesmnn'H wife , ho having found nay
with her ono evening , and in the quarrel
that followed , Hay shot and killed him.
Ray sought safety In ( light nnd has been
KOIIO nearly a year , while rewards of gen-

his head.

disordered kidneys. I was also troubled
with torpid liver and biliousness. I tried to
got relief by using different kinds of kid

mained until recently I heard about and
procured some of Morrow's Kld-ne-olds

wrought a wonderful change In my physical
