Mr. Nowmnn. corlairdy had a Tory
tough timo with tho grip, nnd it is no
wonder that ho thinks that tho remedy
that cared him enn't bo beat. Ills coso
shows how profoundly grip poisons tho
system nnd how obstinately it resists nil
ordinary efforts to orndlcato It. N
Fow cases can bo worso than Mr. New
man's for ho had head, heart and stom
ach troubles combined with great weak
ness. IIo recently said :
Tho attack of grip which I had eight
years ngo loft mo in n vory bad fir. I
becamo nearly deaf and my head nchod
continually and was filled with hissing
nnd roaring Bounds. My heart fluttered
and had regular runnlng-nway fipells.
My stomach was bo soro that I could
hnrdly bear a touch on that part of my
body. I had n great deal pf pain in. tho
region of my liver and tho doctor Bnid
that organ was enlarged. My kidneys
nehed bo at times that I could hardly"
stand."
" Didn't you givo up and go to bod?'
ho was asked,
"No, I simply wouldn't. My head
and my back nehed dreadfully, but I
obstinately dragged myself about, kept
growing worse nnd finally ran down t6
almost nothing."
" What did yon do to got relief?"
"First I tried n doctor, bnt ho did mo
no good. Thou I took all kinds of ad
vertised preparations but nothing proved
holpful uutllllHJgnu touso Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. As soon ns I got thorn I
know that I had nt Inst bit tho right

Mr. William A. Nowman is a woll

harrowed after drilling. This gives
much better result than fall-ploughing.

Had Sent Resignation, But It Had
Not Been Accepted.

leg. After Lieutenant Point hnd fall
en, Captain Ralbourn turned his re
volver upon himsolf, sending a bullot
into his head about thrco Inches bo
hind his right ear. IIo died almost in
stantly. Captain Ralbourn had been drink
ing heavily, nnd tho tragedy was tho
outgrowth of his arrest on Tuesday
last on a chargo of drunkenness.
On Tuosdny of last wcok Captain
Ralbourn was appolntod officer of tho
dny at Fort Douglas, but failed to re
port for duty and wns absent in tho
city twenty hours without leave. IIo
was arrested tho following day, but

about two doors from thoso which
Captain Ralbourn occupied. Tho lieu
tenant had Just stopped out of doors
early Sundny, whon Captain Ralbourn

Captain Ralbourn had sought to
avoid a court-martial and had for
warded to Washington his resignation
from tho army.
It had not been accepted and It was
supposed that a trial by court-martial
awaited him. Worry ovor tho prob
ability of a dishonorable dlschargo
from tho army and dissipation aro bo
Moved to havo unbalanced his mind.
Captain Ralbourn, who wns 35 years
old and unmarried, enlisted in tho
nrmy as a prlvato and had worked his

Yorlc City, generally, and wisely, pro
vides retiring pensions for teachers In
her public schools, nnd also for a po
liceman. Fow, indeed, of our colleges
aro able to do bo. Tho consequences
nro grlovous. Ablo mon hesitate to
adopt teaching as a career, and many
old professors whoso places should bo
occupied by younger men cannot bo
retired.
"I have, therefore, transferred to
you and your successors as trustees,
$10,000,000 5 per cent first mortgago
bonds of tho United States Steel cor
poration, tho revenue from which Is
to provide retiring pensions for tho
teachers of universities, colleges and

ENJOINS UNION MEN.
Federal Court Restrains Strikers From
Interfering with Employers' Teams.
CHICAGO For tho first tlmo slnco
the strike of tho American Railway
union in 1S94, tho government of the
United States has been made a party
to tho labor troubles In this city. The
government was brought Into tho
teamsters' strike by tho issuance of
an injunction by Judgo C. C. Kholsaat
of tho United States circuit court. The
writ was asked on behalf of tho Em
ployers Teaming company on tho
grounds that tho organization is in
corporated under tho laws of West
Virginia, and Is therefore under the
protection of tho federal court. Tho
ordor commands that all defendants
refrain from any Interference with
tho business of tho Employers' Team
ing company and commands tho strik
ers to refrain from picketing, massing
on tho streets, with Intent to inter
fere with tho wagons of tho complain
ant and from Interfering In any man
ner with non-union men In Its employ.
As soon as Issued copies of the In
junction were printed In largo cards,
and two of these wore attached to
every wagon of the Employers' Team
ing company which went upon tho
streets. The Injunction exerted a pa
cifying influence nnd thero was less
rioting in tho streets than Thursday.
A thunderstorm, which continued dur
ing tho latter part of the afternoon
and through tho evening, nlso lent ma
terial assistance In keeping tho
streets clear.

FINAL ROLL GALL
GEN.
FITZHUGH LEE, U. S. A.,
DIES OF APOPLEXY.
THE END COMES SUDDENLY
Stricken on the Train When En Route
from Boston, on Way to Washing
ton. He Passes Away Apparently
Without Pain.
WASHINGTON Genoral Fitzhugh
Leo, U. S. A.) retired, and ono of Vir
ginia's foremost Bons, died at tho
Providence hospital hero Friday night
from an attack of apoplexy, which ho
suffered early in thp morning on a
train while en route from Boston to
Washington. After General Leo had
been removed to tho hospital It was
evident to tho physicians that his caso
was n very serious one, but they
hoped that his vitality and will power
would assist materially in a partial
recovery at loast from tho attack. His
condition remained fair considering
tho severity of tho attack during tho
dny, but shortly after 9 o'clock ho be
gan to grow weaker, his breathing be
camo moro rapid and his pulso lower,
terminating In less than two hours In
doath. Tho end was peaceful and with
out pain, tho general remaining con
scious until within five minutes of tho
end. Half an hour before death Gen
eral Leo recognized his brother, Daniel
Leo, who enmo Into tho room for a
moment.
In tho room when he died were Dr.
Montgomery, ono of tho physicians at
tho hospital; Mrs. Dorsey, a relative,
and a nurse, two of tho attending
physicians, Drs. Edio and Kean, hav
ing retired temporarily. A pathetic
fcaturo of tho caso is that although
General Leo was blessed with a fam
ily consisting of a wlfo and five chil
dren, not ono of them wero with him
nt tho timo of his death. Tho general
was 68 years of age.
General Leo was conscious through
out tho day and recognized thoso who
wero about tho sick room. Necessar
ily theso were very few persons and
Included tho atcndlng physicians, tho
nurses and several relatives who camo
to visit him. While not suffering any
pain tho general was rather uncom
fortable most of the time, his brcnth
Ing being difficult and his articula
tion when ho attempted to speak be
ing heavy and thick. Tho orders of
Lieutenant George Leo, a son who was
about to sail for tho Philippines, has
been changed and ho will como to
Washington and it is expected will bo
accompanied by his sister, tho wlfo of
Lieutenant Brown, who also Is now on
the Pacific coast and whoso orders
were issued directing him to sail with
his regiment for tho Philippines.
Tho end of General Lee's Illness
was a shoctt to ins numerous menus
In Washington. This was evidenced
by tho numerous inquiries made dur
ing tho day and ovenlng. His heart
and bouI has been in tho work of tho
Jamestown exposition and ho Inbored
zealously to make it a success.

Liberty and Education.
When Texas revolted from Mexico

has failed to establish any public sys
tem of education, nlthough possessed
of almost unlimited resources (tho
public domain), and although It is an
axiom in political science that un
less a people aro educated and en
lightened it is idle to expect tho con
tinuance of civil liberty or tho capa
city for self-government."
First Ufies of Perfumery.
Tho use of perfumery among tho

It had sacred attributes -and was n
"confection, after the art of tho

and holy." Later, perfumery becamo
associated with luxurious Indolenco
and sensuous relaxations. Its con
tlnucd uso to tho present timo is a
survival of tho latest impulses.

Just exactly what Dodd's Kidney Pills
