In Political Circle * .
The Kilkenny cat slaters have returned
from the seaside and will play a star en-
Bttgcmcnt In connootlon with the demo
cratic primaries to bo held In Dougla/i
county Thursday afternoon. A few days ago
the democrats were congregating on the
curbatones to congratulate * each other on
the torrid character of the republican pri
maries , but now they have turned to con
template family troubles of their own. An
export examination of the maturing corn-
hunks IB unnecessary to convince them that
there Is a spell of hot wt-.itber ahead and
it Is sure to be followed by a killing frost
that will nip a lot of budding asptratlonn
that fl.ro now springing up profusely nil over
the dotmicratlc paBttirc. The controversy
ever the precise Ingredient * of the fusion
concoction Is not the only trouble on their
xnJmlft and It looks n. < t though there will be
n redbot fight In nearly every ward In the
dty ever the selection of tbo delegates to
the democratic convention.
' ;
t The most serious complication Is Injected
* by the announcement that John Drexel and
i 1'at Maityn have formed a combination and
that they Intend to make a light all over the
tlty to control the delegations In the con
vention. Mostyn U a candidate for sheriff
and Dioxel Is a comparatively recent as
pirant for the Job of running against I. G.
Uarlght and the situation Is BUCU that the
combination Is apparently taking the field
with considerable strength.
Both thctto offices are definitely conceded
to the democrats by the populists and silver
republicans. The effect of this Is to Induce
democratic candldatc.1 to go after one of
them In preference to other places that may
yet bo subject to Interference as n prelimi
nary to timlon. In each case there Is now
a strong field of candidates and the Injec
tion of a new clement Into the light hns
nwakenod the suspicions of candidates who
are confronted with the unexpected prob-
nblllty of contoslfl In their own wards.
Con Gallagher's friends are trying to
create tbo Impression that ho Is practically
out of the race for sheriff , except to the
> ' > citont to which his Influence may affect the
Interests of other candidates , while care-
* ully concocting a scheme to have him
' brought In on the last lap as a compromise.
Harry Miller , Jo-hn Powers nnd Mostyn are
npjiarontly the men In sight , the rnco with
Powers exhibiting the most strength. But
nothing Is now certain until after the pri
maries .mil oven then the alzo of the field
opens tlu way to combinations that may
pocket the favorites cltso to the wire.
Droxcl's boom for clerk of the court
makes at least flvc candidates , each of
whom Is llkoly to come Into the convention
with a following. It Is conceded Klsasser
will have the Second ward and that Frank
Ilroudwoll will have South Omaha. Streator
oxpcctn to have the Seventh ward and Harry
Deuul's popularity maliCH him a factor worth
reckoning with. Just how much strength
Drexel will acquire U the unknown quantity
that I ho ticket carpenter. ? have not succeeded
In llgurlni ; out to their satisfaction. With ! '
the opposltkn divided among four candl- j
tiatos , Elsasser's friends still ofsort that
they are In the lead , but If It should unite
on onj man It Is admitted that the chances ,
of the Second ward statesman are not the
promising.
Broadw ell -stock ls--not quoted , as high as
it WOH a few days ago. Since nfcxcl earner
Into the field the Idea has been quietly
handed around the circle that It would be
rank folly to put up an out-of-town man
with any expectation of beating the Omaha
candidate. An the friends of all the Omaha
candidates are pushing this proposition it
In gathering weight and It IB becoming more
and moro Impossible that Uroadwcll wilt
have any substantial support among the
Omaha delegates. !
It Is announced from bath democratic and
populist hinirces that the complications grow
ing out of the reeut Judicial conventions
have been praetlrally settled. The demo
crats carry their point. The two parties
will fuse on five democrats ) and two pop-
ullutfj and the ellver republicans will be left
to carry thrlr burden of sorrow and Scott
alone. Up to this tlmo the populists ha\o
nominated tliolr t\\o men nnd endorsed the
first 'four ' democrats that were nominated.
H In now agreed that their Judicial com-
mltleo hnll add the name of Carl C. Wright
to the ticket , uliicli will then consist of
Wright , Ferguson , Shlolde. Abbott und Eng

The silver republicans had n meeting to
consider the Judicial situation the other day
that wnn a ulioln show In Itnelf. The meetIng -
Ing wa * railed with n view to fcellnn the
jmlua of J i..go Scott in regard to n vith-
drawnl fn in the ticket. Thin was ouJctiy :
under the hat and Scott was not au.irc of
lt purprse until It wan gently hinted to him
after the committee woo In Hcsalon. Then
there wns trouble. The Independent can-
dldnto treated hln colleagues to a storm of
tilUJngsgato that fairly routed them , ana
tun committee adjourned without dilng" any
thing. The purpose of the meeting was
diplomatically broached by Dr. J , J. Savllle ,
who fluggcfted that It appeared that some
conccfslon nhould be mnde In order to effect
fuuion and followed this up by some abstract
generalities In regard to the duty of the
Individual to make hli personal ambition
second to the welfare of the catist > . Ho did
not refer directly to Scott , but when J. W.
Curr got up and remarked that hu agreed
with the prtivlaus gpoakur and that , If the
democrat ! ) nnd populists could bo Induced
to ondomo his colleague on the ticket , he
would gladly withdraw his own cnmllilnc.t ,
Scojt began to see tliluK" . Hu flew Into a
rage and took thu floor for an extended
speech , Inlileh hu abused Savllle , de
nounced Carr n a traitor and condemned
the silver republican party to perdition gen
erally. lint he did not withdraw and the
committee gave up the Job In disgust.
Saturday promises to bu a lively day with
politicians of all parties. In addition to
the three fusion convention ! ) , the first meet
ing of the now republican county committee
will probably bo held on that day , and i
Charman | Ilaldbrlco of the Judicial committee - ;
too expects to call Ills committee together
during the day.

KIDNAPING CASE OF ROSE
HcfinrM Comm from Cleveland That
I'rocccilliiKn AKfilnnt Ilciinty
Hurry He Stopiicil.
From two letters received. In tills city
Tuesday relative to tbo kidnaping ot An
tonio Hose by Deputy Sheriff Barry and his
'
return to Omaha from Cleveland , to which
place he was taken , It would seem that
Btpps liavo been taken to quash the pro
ceedings Instituted In the latter city seek
ing to punish Hope for tbo alleged crime of
embezzling money and that Hose may
m.ikc that place his future homo.
Sheriff McDonald received one letter and
Thompson & Mngncy the other. From their
contuiU the Inference Is drawn that Hose
li not In jail , but enjoying liberty with hla
friends and daughter. For the time being
nothing more will bo done In the case unlit
the attorneys of Hceie have had an oppor
tunity to write the attorney employed by
lloio In Cleveland and explain the whole
situation to him. The quashing of the
proceeding against Rosa may not affect the
determination to prosecute Harry , whoso
actions are condoned by the sheriff of
Cleveland. It la surmised that the sheriff
appreciate * ? the position Harry's actions
have placed htm In and that pressure la beIng - I
Ing brought to bear to quash the proceed
ings against Rose In hopes that that will
have a tendency to act as oil upon troubled
waters and result In the sheriff's deputy In
Cleveland not being compelled to cooie to
Omaha to answer to the charge of kid- ,
naplng. ,
The letters wcro written by the Cfevoland
attorney employed by Rose. Ho makes the
plea that all prosecution be dropped at this
end and that no steps bo taken to press
the charge of kidnaping. From the tenor
of tbo letters It Is surmleod that he Is not
familiar with all the phases of the case
and until bo has been advised ot the facts ,
the matter will rest where It Is. The
Cleveland attorney stated that If any at
tempt were made to force the sheriff of that
county to return Rose to thla city , the
charges against him might not be dropped
and that the authorities there would simply
apply for regular requisition papers and
take Rose back In a legal manner.
A STHIXCinM1 FOOD LAW.
Irolillil < * flic VHC of Arneitlc or Alum
In All Articles of ni < - . ; '
The law enacted by the Missouri fcgls-
lature , a copy of which woe recently pub
lished In our columns , and which pro
hibits the manufacture or sale of any ar
ticle Intended for food or to be used In the
preparation of food , which contains alum ,
arsenic , ammonia , etc. , places that etato In
the lend In the matter ot sanitary legisla
tion. I I !
Laws restricting the use of alum In bread
have been In force In England , Germany j
and France for many years. In thla coun
try. In Minnesota , Wisconsin , Ohio , Ken
tucky and several other Plates , direct leg
islation In reference to the Palo of alum
baking powders has also been effected. In
several of these states their sale Is prohib
ited unless they are branded to show that
they contain alum , and In the District of 1
Columbia , under the laws of congress , the
sale of bread containing alum has been
made Illegal.
Following are the names of some of the
brands of baking powder sold In this vicin
ity which are shown by recent analysis to
contain alum. Housekeepers and grocers
flbould cut the list out and keep It for
reference :
BAKING POWDEHS CONTAINING
ALUM.
K. C Contains Alum
Manf. hy Jnquea Mfff. Co. , Chicago.
MANHATTAN Contains Alum

ROCKET Contains Alum

THIH3K MEALS Contains Alum
Munf. by Rldonour-Bnkcr Grocery Co. ,
K > npas City.
The hoimekeeper should bear In mind that
alum makes a cheap baking powder. It
co ts but two rents a pound whllo cream of
tartar costs thirty. The quality of the
powder Is therefore usually Indicated by
the price.
NO PROSPECT OF CLOSING1

At a meeting of the Presbyterian Hospital
association , held Tuesday afternoon In the
rooms of the Young Men's Christian asso
ciation , a resolution was passed making It
possible for the directors ot that institu
tion to close It at any time should they see
fit. In drafting the by-laws of the associa
tion no provision was made for the closing j I '
of the hospital , should occasion ever arise ,
and the mooting Tuesday wan called simply
for the purpose of remedying this defect. I
Members of the association say that the j I
question of closing or not closing was not
squarely before them , an the financial condl-
tlrn of the hospital Is hotter at present
than It has ever been. As previously
stated In The Dec , tliero ara certain old
debts agalnat the hospital , and a charitable
Institution , oven whllo running on a paying
basis , dons not rapidly relieve Hwjlf of such
burdens , nut there Is no disposition on the
part of any creditors to press their claims
and there Is no prospect that the directors
will have tn avail themselves of the action
taken Tuesday. The financial report made
to the amiciotlon was conRldercd very en-
courngln ? .
A resolution was passed thanking Dr. Al
lison and Dr. Gllmore and their associates
for their able nnd continued efforts In be
half of tbo hospital.

The moat Interesting matter to como up
In the council meeting Tuesday night ,
though not the one most willingly dis
cussed , was a report of City Comptroller
W rtberg , which shown that the city Is
practically bankrupt. There Is no money
In the general fund to meet the expenses
which como up from time to tlmo oulsldo
of the department * ! provided for by appro
priation , and laborers for the city who nre
now engaged on work which must be paid
for out of the general fund nnd not out of
some special fund yet unexhausted , will i
have to wait until the funds tin dor the levy
of 1SOO are available , which will not bo before - '
fore next February. The comptroller says
It simply means that the city will go Into
debt botor * the end of the year nnd will
remain so until next year's levy U made.
Creditors of the city cannot bo given
negotiable paper , like warrants or "I. 0.
U.V for future payment and will simply i
have to watt for their money.
There Is no money that can bo turned Into J
the general fund except the small residue
In the ward allotments , which Is already |
practically used up , and the money which ,
may possibly bo collected from the railroads.
A Uttlo will come In through the payment
of delinquent taxes , probably not moro than ,
$1,000 per month. This will not eave > the
city from debt , for there Is a considerable
portion of the year yet to run , and besides ,
this money will be taken up by a deficit
which already exists In several districts i
which have Issued bonds. The only quc - I
Uon remaining , therefore , Is how much Uio
city will own when the end of the year
conns around. This It Is Impossible to
estimate.
FlRtircn In Iletnll.
The report of the comptroller on the bal
ances In the various funds of the treasury ,

Seventh ward 1,000 702.23
Eighth ward l.COO 657.71
Ninth ward 1,000 512.64
In explanation of the above figures the
comptroller Bald that the balances given
were only apparent , as expenditures bad
been made which had not yet been reported
by the Board of Public Works. Unless the
board reports or the council retransfors tbo
money to the goncral fund , the balances
would not be available , as tire comptroller
cannot certify to warrants unless he knows
the condition of the fund drawn on. The
board ceased to make reports about August
1. The report was referred.
Comptroller -etborg reported that a
shortage amounting to $3,072.59 existed In
several districts , which the council would
have to provide for , otherwise the bonds
and coupons of the districts would go to
protest October 1. The communication was .
referred. I
The report of the committee on street Im-
provcmen's recommending the passage of
the ordinance opening William street from
Nineteenth to Twentieth was not adopted
by the council. This Is the measure In
tended to afford tbo property of Edward
Harpstrlte an outlet and a bond Algned
by Harpstrlte to hold the city harmless of
damages was attnchud to the ordinance. All
but Stuht and Lobeck voted against It.
The sum of $1,000 was voted out of the
sewer bond fund for work on an extension
of the city sewer to Forty-fourth street
and Lincoln avenue , on condition that tbo
county pays $2,000 toward the work.
The report of a majority of the com
mittee on street Improvements recommend
ing the opening of Ohio street west of Twen
tieth and of Miami street was turned down
nnd the minority report , laying the matter
over for one week , was adopted. The propo- (
eltlons In regard to both streets are based
on the dedication of property for street
purposes on condition of the cancellation of
taxes.
MIxcellnlleoiiH Mutter * .
By resolution the Interest on special taxes
levied against the property of Mrs. Ellen
Lynam was cancelled , the tax commissioner
advising such action.
The sum of $00 was allowed the city elec
trician with which to repair the Illumina

Ak-Sar-Ben parades.
The contracts between the city and C. B ,

Gee Wo and when the case wn taken up

an alibi , an be was out of town at the time
The Chinaman who had practiced waa

But the witness bad visited the office a

do suffer !
WOMEN so-called healthy women suffer !
But they are not healthy !
The marks left by pain are on the young faces of many of our
daughters. Pain that leaves its mark comes from a curable
cause. If that cause is not removed its
influence reaches out and overshadows a
whole life. The reason LydiaE. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has been so uni
formly successful for over a quarter of u
century in overcoming the suffering of
women , is that it is thorough and goes
directly to the cause. It is a woman's
remedy for woman's ills.
Miss EMILY F. HAAS , of 148 Freeman
St , Greenpoint , Brooklyn , N. Y. , writes :
"DEAR MRS. PlNKHAM I wish testate
state that I used your Vegetable Com
pound with the greatest success. I
was very sick for nearly n year with
hysteria , was down-hearted and
nervous ; also suffered with painful
menstruation and pain in back and
limbs. I often wished for death ,
thinking nothing would euro me. I
had doctors , but their medicines did
me no good. At last , by the advice
of a friend , I began to tafce Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound ,
and I am happy to say it has entire
ly cured me.
JENNIE SHERMAN , of Fremont ,
Mich. , Box 748 , writes :
' DEAR MRS. PWKHAM : I feel
that I must write you and tell
you what your medicine has
done for me. I had neuralgia
of the stomach for two years ,
so bad that I could not do any
work. I had two or three doc
tors , but did not seem to get any bet
ter. I began taking Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound and Liver
Pills and improved from the first , had
better appetite , and after taking three bottles of Compound
and one box of Liver Pills , can say that I am cured. Your
Vegetable Compound is a wonderful medicine. '
