Bears the The Kind You Have Always Bought WAR INDEMNITIES. Exacting Money From a Cenquered Foe is a Modern Practice, In ancient times the despoiled the enemy, he had over- come, sacked cities and took what- ever they could carry away. Now he respects private property but he victor makes the eonquered nation pay the| whole cost of the war. In either case the practice is analogous to that of the civil courts, which as- sesses costs upon the defeated party. The four great wars of the last 36 years have all been followed by ex- actions of thiskind After Prussia defeated Austria in the “seven weeks’ war of 1866, ahe demanded of her adversary 20,000,000 thalers, or about £3,000,000 sterling, a modest sum as inderanities go. She made similar exactions also from the states which allied themselves with Austria. This was in addition to territorial concessions. Five years later France was defeated by Prussia and besides being compelled to give the provinces of Alsace and Loraine, was forced to pay her victorious enemy the enormous sum of £200,- 000,000 sterling. Payment was to be extended over a period of four years and German garrisons were to be retained in France untii the whole was paid, but the splendid patriot- ism of the French people enabled the Government to anticipate the payments and the last German sol- dier left France in July, 1873. Again Russia, after defeating Tur- key in 1878, claimed in addition to territorial concessions, a money indemnity of 300,000,000 rubles. A considerable part of this amount Turkey still owes to Russia. In like manner Japan followed the ex- ample of European nations, exacting from China in 1895 a war indemnity of more than $100,000,0@0, and mil- lions more for surrendering her claim on the Liaotung Peninsula. This was in addition to the cession of the Island of Formosa. Such ex actions from a defeated nation, whose resourees are already nearly exhausted by the strain of war, seem | severe, but it is desirable that litiga- tion be made not too easy and inex- pensive to those who have a dispo sition to indulge in it, it is vastly more important that nations be de terred from entering upon war on} -|Omaba—they were to IRE MADE HER MURDER. Chastisement of a Babe Causes One Missouri Mother to Kill Another—Both Had Use of Revolvers. Maryville, Mo, Sept. 25 —As ap pears from the story of Mrs. George Ewing, who Monday night shot and | killed the wife of her brother in law. Mrs. Frank Ewing, the trouble grew out of a simple cause, the j rough handling of her child by her | sister in-law in &# moment of anger The husbands of both women be ‘jing absent from home—Geo. Ewiog jin Maryville aud Frank Ewiog io spend the night together, Mis. Frank Ewing visiting her sister io law. | The evening was paseed quietly j}and pleasantly, and the sound of the piano was in the home of George Ewing. At about 9 oclock the mothers made ready to retire. They went upstairs into a small room about 12 feet square. A boy, 4 years old, the son of Frank and Lizzie Ewing, was asleep upon a pallet upon the floor. A daughter of George and Ida Ew- ing, twe years old, full of life and playfulness, was trying te awaken her little cousin who was sleeping upon the pallet. The little girl con tinued to tease the sleeping child until Lizzie Ewing became angry and said sharply to the child: “George and Ida never have taught you apy manrers.” Seizing the little one she, Lizzie, her slayer declares, threw her on the bed, her head striking the wall. A fight between the mothers ensued. A revolver under the pillow of the bed was grasped by Ida Ewing who, turning to Lizzie, said: “Tl shoot you,” It seems, however, that a ward- robe was near by in which there was a wecond pistol, and thie was quickly in the hands of Lizzie Ewing, but too late to be used by her. She succeeded in vockiog it, but two shots were fired by Ida Ewing, the first taking effect in the ferehead and the second in the temple. As soon aa the deed was done, Ida Ewing ran over to the house of B. R. Luse, her nearest neighbor, and said: “I have shot and killed Lizzie I shot her two times.” After telling of the killing she be came hysterical, sinking in a coma- tose state and has sore mained sinee. “For five weeks I lived on cold water, so to speak,” writes a man whe suffered terribly from indiges- tion. He could hardly keep anything on his stomach What stayed, wasn’t properly digested and gave him terrible pangs. This is not an uncommon cass. Dyspeptics don’t get enough nour- ishment. They are generally thin and weak They may eat enough, but they don’t digest enough. Much of what they eat turns into poison. If this keeps on there’s no telling what dis ease they may get next. That’s why it is best to take Shaker Digestive Cordial, as soon as symptoms of indigestion appear. It cures ail the evils of indigestion and prevents the evils which indi gestion causes.

She wants others to profit by her ex- perience; to grow well; to enjoy health; to be as happy as she is. “For five years I suffered with ovarian trouble,” is Mrs. Clark’s own version of the story. “I was not free one single day from headache and intense twitching pains in my neck and shoulders. “For months at a time I would te con- fined to my bed. “At times black spots would appear before my eyes and I would become blin My nerves were in such a state that a step on the floor unsettled me, furnished, titles examined papers drawn, TYGARD, How.

Paris, Sept. 28.—The United States Peace Commission went into session at 11 o'clock this morning. The Gaulois saye: ‘In spite of the mystery surrounding the matter, weare able from a high source to give au outline ef the position of both commissions. While the Ameri- cans have instructions, which are mueh more precise than those of the Spaniards, there is a diversity of opinion io regard to the Philippines Senator Gray is a very ardent demo- orat and, consequently, belongs to the party whieh repudiated expar- sion He opposes all annexation, and his opinion, therefore, totally differs from that of the other four commissioners, some of whom would be content with a coaling station at the Philippines, possibly Cavite, while othere, like Senatcr Davis, advocate the annexation of the whole archipelago.” The Gaulois, however, b:licves that the Americans, by mutual con- cessions, will come to an agreement, and that they will all be largely influenced by Major Gen. Merritt's reports on the situation Gaulois, are, briefly, to hold out and make the best terms possible Mad jrid is well aware, it appears, that the eonferences, at the bast, o: 1s have to please the Spanish peopie, that the America:s will not abu jthe situation too much P. pular |sentinaent in Spain thinks it better | |to abandon the Philippine Islands j;tban to keep them under conditions jren jering them ungovernable CASTORIA | For Infants and Children. | The Kind You Have Always Bought Be 2 | signaw : Qa fflUlEn: | Order of Publication.
