REACHES SEAT OF TROUBLE
Don't Try to t iue Hemorrhoid with
Ksternal Applications.
When it la such a well known fact that
hemorrhoids or piles Is a disease originat
ing In tha morbid dilatation of th veins ot
th lower part ot the rectum. It aeem In
credible that people afflicted with this
painful trouble should go oc doctoring
with external aalvea and washes, when the
diseased parta can only be reached by an
Inward application.
Th aupposltorles used In Pyramid Pile
Cure are composed of tha moat soothing and
healing oil and lotion known to Materia
Medlca, and act on the diseased veins and
surrounding tissue like magic, giving al
most Instant relief. Tin d litsd blood vea
aels are relieved, th Irritation of th mu

stopped.
The predisposing cause of piles are such
as produce fullness of the hemorrhoidal
teloa and Imped th return of blood from
them, such aa ronatipaticn, sedentary hab
its, city life, pregnsncy. corset, etc.. In
fact, the caueea are all fully covered In a
very interesting llttl book published by
th Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall, Mich., and
th aam will be sent free to any addrea

Th general principles of treatment are,
according to the evident causes, active
habits, attention to diet sod other bygenlo
rules, etc., svoldance of constipation and
each night the Injection of a Pyramid
suppository to heal and cure the afflicted
parts.
That thia treatment haa been effective I
instanced by the testimony qf thouaanda
of people who have been permanently
cured and by the evidence of druggists. The
case of Mr. Samuel Gouldle, bit Moya
ineosing avenu. Philadelphia. Is a fair
sample. -
For twelve long years I Buffered terri

two surgical operations, once in Cleveland,
Ohio, In the yar 1S, and ence In Toledo.
Ohio, in 1900, and also tried a number of
salves and ointments from different doc

STIRS UP COMMISSIONER CONNOLLY

Commissioner's Father Has a Wis
ter Job aa Gardener at
Inatltatloa.
The Board of County Commissioner met
at its chambers at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning, and then, on motion of Connolly,
chairman of the charity committee, ad-
ourned to tho rountj hospital and there
held an "Investlgstlon" of the conditions
prevailing at this Institution. This inves-
lgatlon served to prove Just two things.
First, that some religious workers who have
often visited the institution believe there Is
Immediate snd urgent need of sn additional
nurse for the male ward and more rigid
discipline of the entire fore ot amploye,
with close surveillance of the Inmates, that
they may be permitted to receive no liquor.
Second, that Commissioner Connolly con.
aiders it none of Will Brown' business that
Mr. Connolly's venerable father Is tb man
who la drawing $25 per month snd his llv.
ng for serving as gardener through th
winter months as well as th summer
months.
The evidence brought out In the Investi
gation lacked a great deal of Justifying tha
sensational character given the charge by
an evening publication, but both Rev. C.'H.
Young of 8t. John's Episcopal church, and
Will rn-own of th St. Andrew's society.
ho were the chief complainants, asked to
b excused from responsibility for tho "yel
lowish" Interpretation of their remarks,
snd explained to The Be that It had been
their purpoae merely to call attention to
need In certain department and not to as
sail the( institution in general.
1 bat Rev, l oans; Raw.
In tbs course of the Investlgstlon, Rev.
Toung waa the first to testify. He related
that he had observed neglect of some of
the mala patients at critical times In their
sickness and that he had observed also
some drunkenness among the inmates on
Christmas day.
Will Brown substantiated these charges.
explaining more explicitly that the help,
less had not been washed nor had their
linen changed often enough to keep them
even decent.
Mrs. Prless further stated that George
Sayres, consumptive, had been a partlcu
larly distressing caae and that her husband
bad been complaining of being beaten dur
ing her absence, but said that Mrs. Henry
Oest bsd been sn excellent matron.
County Physician Lee Van Camp said he
did not notice material difference In the
conditions now and those prevailing when
he waa Intern, but that he then bad two
nurses. Including one whose work he had
shouldered. In part, that the latter might
attend medical school.
Dr. W. F. Milroy thought the conditions
occasionally might be criticised, but that in
a general way the hospital has been very
creditably conducted.
Dr. Stokea of the surgical staff said he
thought this hospital comparea favorably
with that of Cook county, Illinois. Rev.
Young Interpolated the statement that he
has seen vermin crawling on th pillows of
the patients.
H. O. Manvllle said he had seen the closet
bowls In a filthy condition, evidently from
neglect.
Commissioner Ostrom stated that he
thought the complainants. If they desired
merely more attendants at the hospltel,
should have approached the board In per-
son lnstesd of leaping Into print.
Hits at Connolly, 1
Commissioner Connolly made tb an
nouncement, hitherto kept secret, that the
nurse-druggist had realgned some time sgo.
Dut that the bosrd bad refused to accept
such resignation because not yet able to
find anyone willing to tske his plsce at
the (alary offered.
Then came th claah of the day.
"What Is the salary?" asked Will Brown.
"It la 25 per month and hia living here.1
said Chairman Connolly of the chsrity
committee.
"Well, couldn't there be a lopping off
somewhere else to increase the pay for
this work? was Brown's next question.
"I don't know of sny," snswered Con
nolly.
"Haven't you a gardener here now?"
"Yes."
"What does he get?"
"The same aalary as the other."
"What is his name?"
"Well, Mr. Brown, I will answer that by
saying that it Is none of your business.
He Is not under investigation. Now do
you feel satisfied?"
"Yes," answered Brown serenely. "I
knew bis name without asking."
"I thought you did." responded Con
nolly, snd very shortly the hearing ad
journed to the court house.
Nothing was done there. It Is said that
Ostrom was resdy to move to employ sn
otber nurse, but that tha other commis
sioners prefer not to take the action Just
at this time.
When Mr. Brown wss asked what the
complainant would do next, he anawered
that they would wait to see what the board
doea and If It does nothing, probubly will
'stir it up again."

resident of Bherldao county, was brought to
thla city and placed In ths custody ot Bber
Iff Power to await hla trial in tbs United
States district court on ths charga of furn
ishing liquor to Indians of tbs Pins Ridge
agency. On ths same trsln which brought
the officer and prisoner to this city was a
prominent legal light of Sheridan county.
who asserts that tha action is oas of sem
Ing persecution sgslnst Rush sad not proae
cutlcra, In which hs has been souultted once
of th same charge, which Is now resting
against him.
"Charles Rush resides oa tbs rosd run
nlng between the Pins Kidgs agsncy sad
Rushvllle," hs said to a Bee reporter laat
night. "Thla rosd is ons over which th
freight for ths agency and also tha Indian
supplies are hauled. Rush has resided there
during the laat eighteen years and haa borne
an excellent reputation as aa industrious
honest and law sbtdlng citlien. About three
months ago Boss Fsrmer 8moot of ths
agency complained to tha county attorney
of Sheridan county that Rush had sold
hlsky to three certain Indiana. His com
plaint was taken. Ruah waa arrested, wslved
his examination snd wss bound over to the
district court. This action was followed
by ths county attorney fling a complaint
that Kusb had unlawfully kept liquor at hla
place for ssls. On this eaargs hs was ar
reated. waived examination and gavs bonds.
When Sheriff Houses wnt to ssrvs ths wsr
rant, which commanded that hs make
search ot th premises, bs found two psr
tlally filled bottles, less than one-half a
gallon, on Ruah's premises.
"At the Isat session ot ths district court,
over which Judge Westover presided. Rush
wss vigorously prosecuted and was promptly
acquitted. He wss rightfully scqultted. too.
because the testimony of ths three Indi
ans, who said he had given them the liquor,
could not be corroboriied In a single in
stance, aa they were kept spsrt and wer
ot permitted to hear each other's testi
mony. Neither wss the testimony which
they gsve convincing. Three white wit-
nesses were sworn In Rush's behslf, who
proved thst three Indlsns stopped at the
defendant's home snd wstered their horses
at his well, snd thst he hsd bad no trans
actions with them whatever.
"Before Rush wss tried In th district
court at Sheridan county the boss fartrr
of th agency, or someone else, csused this
same transaction to be investigated by the
I'nlted States grand Jury with the result
that he wss sfterwsrds tried and acqu'tted.
"Last Monday the United States deputy
marshal went to Ruah's home snd arrested
him, bringing him to Omsbs tonight for
trial.
"Rush Is sn industrious, hsrdworklng
young farmer, who bears an excellent repu.
tstlon snd takes good care of his family.
By frugal saving and careful living be has
succeeded In acquiring three-quarters of a
section of Isnd snd considerable live stock
to ahow for years' of lnduatry. He has the
sympathy of his neighbors, who think he Is
being persecuted Instead of prosecuted. Hs
has disposed of nearly half his rattle to
acquire funds with wnlch he fought tor tls
defense In th other cases. He will prob.
ably havs to dispose f hi lsnd now to
defend himself In this ess In the Vnlted
States district court."

House Decides by Over One Hundred
Majority to Reorganise Mili
tary Department.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 6. The house today
passed the bill for the creation ot a gen
eral staff for the army by 153 to 52.
After the general tta'ff bill had been dis
posed of, six members in succession Cooper
(Wis.), Lamb (Va.). Morrell (Pa.), Burk
(Pa.), Caasell (Pa.) snd Adams (Ps.)
arose and denied published reports to the
effect that they had Joined with other mem
bers to "pool" their clerical work.
A number of bills ot a minor character
wer passed, the most important being to
increase the pension of soldiers totally deaf
from $30 to $40 per month.
When the bill creating a general staff
was called Mr. McClellan (N. Y.) sup
ported the bill, although expressing doubt
whether the best results could be obtained
from a general staff composed of offlcere de
tailed for ahort terms without previous
technical training. He remarked Ironically
that perhaps this could not be helped ss
long ss senators hsd sons snd representa
tives had relativea willing to serve their

Mr. Klutts (N. C.) believed that a general
staff In the field was better able to com
mand the army than a board of strstegy
sitting around a table in Washington. He
said the strategy board during the Spanish
war was ridiculed and that it was only sfter hli way t0 work hut he cou)d not ,wear

command of the army should rest with the
president. In the course of his remsrks
he declared sarcastically that hs favored
the bill because It would do little harm.
In time of peace, he said, it would provlds
a few officers with harmless amusement
and not interfere with the conduct ot the
army in the field when actual war came.
The amendment was adopted, a were sev

Mr. Sulloway (K. H.) called up a bill to
increase the pension for total deafness
from $30 to $40 per month.
Mr. Sulloway said there were only 239
such soldiers on the pension rolls. The ad

would be sbout $29,000 per annum. After
some discussion ths bill was psssed.
