FOLK PROMISES TO FLAY LOBBY, Declares, If He ‘1s Governor, First Legislator Accept- ing Pass Will Be Indicted, Kansas City, Mo., 13.—In spite of acold rain that beat into the faces of the people who ventured into the streets to-night; Joseph W. Folk, candidate for the Democratic nomi- nation for Governor of Missouri, was greeted by a crowd of 10,000 persons when he stepped upon the stage of Convention Hall. Mr. Folk did better in the big hall than was expected of him. It takes a powerful voice to be heard through- outthe big auditorium, but Mr. Folk was heard fairly well. Time and again he had to stop for cheers. Crowdsstood in the aisles through- out his entire speech, as they could hear better than in the rear of the building, where there were still a few unoccupied seats. Mr. Folk’s speech had to do chiefly with the boodle iseue. “The battle is fought and won,” he began. “Right has proved itself vic- torious in the Democratic party. It is now time to rally all together around the flag and present a solid front to the Republican-opposition. Let all Democrats forget personal Gifferences“and remember the good of the party. PEOPLE'S VICTORY. “The people have won & great vic- tory. _They have taken their party into their own hands. The profes- atonal politician must get out. The Democrats who are Democrats for principle are fn the saddle and the Democrata who are Democrats for revenue only must take a backseat.” Mr. Folk praised the Democratic government of the State for the low- ing of taxes and the payment of made by the tailor. The “ Horseshoe” kind cost $10 to $25 for suit or overcoat.

Let them go away off some- where and start a party of their own; or, better etill, let them go into the Republican party.” It was a dramatic minute when Mr. Folk raised his right hand and said: “It Lam elected Governor, I promise you thatthe first legislator who takes a bribe, I will demand his impeach- ment. The first rumor I hear that seems to have the air of truth to itof boodling in the Legislature, I will start an investigation that shall be thorough—that shall be thorough if I have to conduct it myself.” For a few moments the crowd cheered and waved hats and hand- kerchiefs, Mr, Folk ended his speed with a plea to the Republicans who love their State and the honor of their Government above party politics, to come into the Democratic pa help to make the boodler bolt. For a half hour after he concluded and the meeting ended, Mr. Folk stood upon the platform shaking hands with his admirers. He said to a representative of The Republic in regard to Mr. Reed’s withdrawal: “Mr. Reed’s withdrawal will not make me etop working. I shall con- tinue my campaign as if he were still in the race.” Beyond this Mr. Folk would say nothing. A GOOD THING FOR SPAIN. The Spanish Minister in Wash- ington Says His Country Profited By the War. Washiiigton, May 14.—“The loss of her colonies has been a good thing for Spain. That country is showing signs of increased industrial activity. The interior is being developed as never before.” Senor Don Emillo De Opeda, the Spanish minister, made this state- ment in an interview to-day. He has just returned to Washington from Madrid. Minister Opsda has been the representative of Spain in this country since the United States and Spain resumed diplomatic rela- tions. In discussing conditions in his country he said: “T do not think there is the slight- estenmity cherished against America by the Spaniards at home, and in- deed the people are so busy facing the new conditions and prospering under the present regime that the war is becoming to them an incident of the distant past. “The development of Spain’s re- sources is progressing at a wonderful rate. Mines and farms are being worked and opened. On every side one sees signs of activity. Poiitical- ly there is still the keen rivalry of factions that is to be observed in most govenments, but the -recent change in the cabinet does not indi- cate any unrest. “The programme of Minister of Fi- nance Villaverde rather d: votes at- tention strictly to internal improve ments.” —_—- GOOD SPIRITS.

May Been Seen, French metaphysicians and scientists are prone to investigations into occult mental and physical phenomena, and are never satisfied unless they have something unusual to engage their at- tention. Prof. Charpentier, a Paris scientist, following up the experiments of Prof. Blondiot, another Frenchman, has found that the penetrating lights, the “N” ray, discovered by the last- named savant, are diffused by the hu- man body, and have many peculiar and useful qualities. They are capable of traveling through metats and opaque substances under certain conditions, and excite and brighten up phosphorescent bodies. Sunlight contains “N” rays, which, when the sunlight has been shut out continue to pass through the inter- posed barrier, and will excite the phos- phorescence of a small quantity of feebly insulated sulphur of calcium contained in a thin tube of glass. A cigarette pa- per dipped into fresh water will inter- cept these rays, while if salt water is used it is not a barrier, Prof. Charpentier, using a totally dark room, approached platino-cyanure of barium and found that, as he drew near- er it, its luminosity increased, thus prov- ing that “N” rays are sent out by the body. He found, too, that the bright- ness of the object increased when he contracted his muscles. It was as- serted at first that these rays are stored in the body of the sun, but Dr, Charpentier has found that, after re- maining hours in total darkness his body gave out more and stronger “N” rays than before, There is much speculation as to the effects of this new discovery will have on medical science, One writer, in discuss- ing the matter, tells of the cause with which an examination of the heart may be made by “N” rays. “A little luminescent object may be moved slowly over the sin around the cardiac region,” he says; “the exact limits of the organ and the exact char- acter of its pulsations will be beau- tifully shown by the increasing and de- creasing luminosity of that little lu- minescent object, pulsating light in re- sponse to the ‘N’ rays sent out in great- er intensity when nearer to the contract- ing muscles.” It is asserted, too, that these “N” fays are responsible for the powers exerted by hypnotists, telephanthists and mind-readers, the person diffusing many and strong rays easily dominat- ing one who is weak in that respect. According to Sterling Heilig, who writes from Paris regarding the new discovery, it will be a very important factor in psychological investigations. MIXTURE QUENCHES ALL FIRES Eberhardt, the Bertin Inventor, Gives Remarkable Exhibition of Extinguisher, Remarkable experiments in putting out fire have been made recently at Berlin by Eberhardt, whose mixture is composed of various kinds of salts and alkalis dissolved in water. He dipped his hands in a bucket of the mixture. then crumpled ble s rags which had been soaked in petroleum. His skin was not even parched. Petroleum was poured on tar and the mass was thuroughily ignited untila high flame shot up. Eberha a paiiful of the mixture on (he seeth- ing mass, and in a moment the flame disappeared. The tar was then found to be so cool that hands could be plunged into it.

In seven seconds with an ex- penditure of five bucketfuls the pile was black and cold. These experiments made a deep im- pression on the crowd of experts present. The general director of the royal theaters immediately decided to store some of the preparation for use. Eberhardt will exhibit his discovery at St. Louis. SEEKS HEALTH IN SPAIN. Duke of Manchester Accompanied by the Duchess Is Compelled to Visit the South of Spain, The duke and duchess of Manches- ter have left London for a two months’ stay in the south of Spain, where the duke was ordered to go for his health. They attended the opening of parlia- ment, the young duchess wearing white satin and emeralds, accompany- ing her mother-in-law, consuelo duchess, whose diamonds were mag- nificent. The duchess of Marlborough in or- ange and velyef with the Vanderbilt pearls, and on her throat a diamond dog collar of new pattern with ex- quisite ruby pendants, was one of the most graceful and striking figures there. The duchess of Sutherland is hav- ing her portrait painted by Sargent for the Royal academy exhibition this year at Burlington house. Oldest of Trade Secrets.

Undoubtedly the most becoming and most effective costume was that worn by the hostess herself. With a beautifully made white muslin dress and a blue sash she wore a high hat of white muslin and lace, trimmed with an edging of lace around the brim. Her hair was beauti- fully coiffured and powdered gray. Mrs. George Cornwallis-West caused amuse- ment when she arrived. She had donned a blonde wig, like that worm by Mar- guerite, with long plaits, which complete- ly changed her appearance. Her hus- band was disguished under a coal-black Pe at wig and mustache, Mrs, George Keppel's headdress was novel. It was a wig of the Louis XVI. period, made in the palest greea blue, with one long curl falling down the neck. In this novel wig was fastened a large blue and silver bat with electric eyes, Her dress was of white satin, trimmed with white lilies, cherries and lace. Mrs, John Mendies wore an enormous white mob cap, trimmed with a great bow of cherry-colored ribbons. Mme, Van looked handsome, but one missed her beautiful hair under a fair wig of the period when hair was dressed high with great combs at the back. Mrs. Newhouse’s headdress also was of this period, Andre FINDS HER LOVER IN JAIL. End of Sinaia of a Chicago Girl Which Had Its Inception in a Matrimonial Advertisement. After a correspondence that had last- ed several months, and which was be- gun in answer to a matrimonial adver- tisement, Hattie Peifel recently arrived at Binghamton, N, Y., to find that th taan she expe ted to marry was a pris- rounty. re! Brought to trial on a charge of for- gery, he pleaded guilty, and Miss Peffel, broken-hearted, returned to Chicago, James C. Rankin, alias Norman Kirk, last December put an advertisement for a wife in a matrimonial paper.. Miss Peffel answered it. The correspondence led to the interchange of photographs and it was arranged that they should marry, Then Rankin was arrested, but he continued to write, directing his let- ters from 50 Collier street, which is the jail number. She had no suspicion of the true state of affairs, and recently sent Rankin $25 in response to a re- quest, The money was intercepted by the jail authorities and turned over to the dupe when she arrived. “Il get down on my knees every night,” wrote Miss Petfel in one of her letters, “and pray that you'll be true to me. If anything should come between us I think I should die.” Though much broken up by the revel- ution that he is a criminal, Miss Pef- fel was still willing to marry Rankin, who is good looking and a smooth con- versationalist. His sentence in prison made that impossible. Miss Peffel is well-dressed woman. ne > } * un aturactive, ERED TONGUE REPLACED. | rion, Ind., Factory Speech Lost by a Peculiar Injury.

Signs of Polluted Blood. There is nothing so repulsive looking and disgusting as an old sore, You worry over it till the brain grows weary and work with it until the patience is exhausted, and the very sight of the old festering, sickly looking place makes you irritable, despondent and desperate. A chronic sore is the very best evidence that your blood is in an unhealthy and impoverished condition, that your constitution is breaking down under the effects of some serious disorder. The taking of strong medicines, like mercury or potash, will sometimes so pollute and vitiate the blood and im- pair the general system that the merest scratch or bruise results in obstinate non-healing sores of the most offensive character. Often an inherited taint breaks out in frightful eating sores upon the limbs or face in old age or middle life. Whenever a sore refuses to heal the blood is always at fault, and, while antiseptic washes, salves, soaps and powders can do much to keep down the inflammation and cleanse the sore, it will never heal permanently till the blood itself has been purified and thedeadly germsand poisons destroyed, and with S.
