MAKES A STRONG DENIAL.
Hm Not Scon Either McKinley or Banna
Since the Election and Baa Bad No
Correspondence With Them—
Would Not Say Anything
About Re-Election to
the Senate.
. r .*•?: -.I f—'V1 ■
Wawitjugtox, Nov. 30.—Senator Sher
mun of Ohio made a flat and emphatic
denial of the reports concerning a deal
between himself and Mr. Mark Hanna
as to the Ohio senatorship and a cabi
net position under McKinley. He de
clared that the stories alleging an
agreement whereby he (Sherman)
should go into the cabinet and Hanna
succeed him in the Senate were pure
fabrications. He had not, he said,
seen cither Mr. McKinley or Mr. Hanna
since the election and had had no cor
respondence with them save of the
most ordinary character, chiefly for
warding applications for office made
through him, There had been no ar
rangements for conferences of any
kind as to ofHee.
As to whether he would be a candi
date for re-eledtion to the Senate, Mr,
Sherman said he had not thought any
thing about it and therefore would
not answer any questions on the sub
ject. He'paid a warm tribute to Mr.
Hanna, who, lie said, was a strong
friend of his and a roan of attainments
and ability.

Railroads Running to Louisiana Will

stricken district of that state will leave

Chairman Millsap is highly gratified
with the result of the committee's
mission. “In a certain sense,” he
said, "wt- got more than we asked for.
The rates promised us by the railroads
ard even lower than We hoped to ob
.tain. The Missouri Pacific, Iron Moun
tain and Cotton Belt lines have made
us a very low rate. The Illinois Cen
tral people treated Us as generously as
those previously seen promising a
handsome reduction in the rate. We
will see the Anchor line people after
we get home and I have no doubt we
will get a special riveT rate. After we
report to Governor Poster he will ap
point a special committee to buy the
corn. Outside aid will not be asked.
The state can and will care for its
own.” •

attention to the fights that took place

PARKH U RST SENSATIONAL.
• '' '■#" -
The Well Known Preacher Startle* New
t
,v.*: York Society,
i Nkw Yonn, Nov. 30.—“I do not know
how many unfaithful husbands or
wives there are in this community, but
1 should calculate that there might be
well on toward a quarter of a million.
The love between husband and wife is
kept true in some cases by the possess
ion of children, but I have learned
enough to know that in the case of any
couple that might present themselves
before me to get married I would not
at any rate of premium issue an insur
ance policy on their conjugal fidelity,
good for more than five years, unless
on the contingency of offspring,or on
the basis of their common faith in
God.”- ift"? • 1
This statement, made by Dr. Park
hurst in the course of his Thanksgiv
ing sermon, has created a profound
sensation in the metropolis, and, in
connection with other, portions of the
sermon, is belieycd to be the forerun
ner of another Parkhnrstian crusade.
Dr. Parkhurst assailed women bar
gain hunters as bloodsuckers and mur
deresses, and declared that a woman
who will ransack the stores and pick
up an article marvellously cheap,
knowing it, as she must, to be the
product of some poor girl in a sickly
back alley, cannot escape guilt by
joining a relief or rescue society and
packing off the unavailable portions
of her wardrobe for distribution
among these girls. He paid his re
spects also to the magnates of the
Coal Trust, stigmatizing these phil
anthropic gentlemen as enemies of the
human race and possessed “of the de
mon of theft and murder.’'
- _Dr. Parkhurst included all trusts in
this category.
Being interviewed to-day regarding
his statement that a quarter of a mil
lion husbands and wives in New York
are unfaithful, Dr. Parkhurst said:
“When I say a quarter of a million,
it is a round sum that comes very close
to the real figures.
“I have figured it from my own ex
perience. Being one of the National
Christian League for the Promotion of
Social Purity, I have had ainple oppor
tunity to make a careful study.”
“You state in the sermon that there
can be no love without religion, do yon
not?”
v “No, I do not say that. I say that I
would not issue a policy for more than
five years on the conjugal fidelity of a
couple who had no children and did
not .believe in a common Father in
Heaven.
“Almost every person who has come
to me here in my study and told me of
conjugal infidelity has told me that
they were childless. There were only
one or two exceptions. Children are a
binding tie. You will always find that
when a couple have children and be
lieve in a common Father in Heaven
inurtiftl faithfulness exists.
“I know the fierure mentioned is an
alarming one, but I arrived at it care
fully.’*

Beea Hidden by Stage Robbers.
St. Joseph, Mo., Nov. 26.—About
thirty-five years ago a stage was robbed
at Belmont, and the robbers buried the
935,000 in gold they took from it on the

been handed down since that time, and
a great many people believe it. John
Krainbeuhl, a grocer at Water

there is plenty of gold buried on
the hills, and he has been searching
for it. Three months ago he hired a
number of men and set them to work
on the hills. They have excavated in

summit have been taken out by the
roots. Soine of the excavations are
thirty feet deep and forty or fifty feet
across the top. A great trench has
been dug in one place and the ground
has been torn up all over the highest
peak. Krainbeuhl says he did not find
any money, but neighbors say he did
and that he has the whole treasure in
his possession.

"Four years ago I began suffering
from lumbago and muscular rheuma

ally worse despite the best efforts of
the leading physicians of the locality,
I Anally tried a box of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People, and from the
. Arst began to improve, and before I
had taken two boxes was entirely -
cured. I have never been bothered
since, but am enjoying the best of:
health.
“I am always ready to speak a good
word for Pink Pills, and have recom
mended them to many of my aAfHcted
friends, who have, without a single ex
ception, been greatly benefited or en
tirely cured.
“In one Instance a lady friend had
suffered from female weakness for
many years, during which time she was.
practically helpess. I recommended
Pink Pills to her; she secured a box.
and is now doing all her own house
work and Is strong and healthy, at
tributing all to Pink Pills.”
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale Peo-jd
pie are a specific for troubles peculiaf*^
to females, such as suppressions, lrreg-V
ularitles and all forms of weakness. JS
They build up the blood, and restore-''
the glow of health to pale and sallow
cheeks. In men they effect a radical'
cure in all cases arising from mental
worry, overwork or excesses of what
