Dor the gover- norship they have put up—against Joe Folk—a man of the name of Walbridge, who was at one time Mayor of St. Louls. We take it for granted that he is an upright and estimable citizen. What a proof of the sincerity of their desire to “eradicate bribery from public life’ the Missouri Re- publicans would have given if they had announced their intention to vote this year for the only living Missourian whose efforts to bring x Lout that very result have attract- cd nation! attention, When it became evident that Joe Folk was going to get the Demo- cratic nomination for the governor- ship in spite of the enemies he had made in his own party, The Courant advised the Missouri Republicans to make it unanimous. The same ad- vice was given them by iutelligent Republican journals of Western States—Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota. “Mr. Folk should be elected unani- mously; Republicans should unite with Democrats in voting for the man who has made the splendid record he has,’ said the Chicago Tribune, “The best interests of good government in Missouri de- mand Folk’s election; it is a question above party,” sald the Emporia Gazette. And so on, It was good counsel wasted. The Republican politicians of Missouri could see nothing in Folk’s nomina- tion and the rage of the Democratic “boodlers” but a chance to slip into the governorship a man of theirown. The efiort required to lift themselves to the level of a new and strange situation was utterly beyond them. They are a pretty dull lot—those politicians, They do not, really know enough to go indoors when it rains. Brothers Rival Candidates, Washington, Aug. 11 —Ex-Gover- nor Elihu Jackson has been nomi- nated by the Democrats of the First Maryland district to make the race for Congress against bis brother, William 11. Jackson, the incumbeut, The dis. ict is close and the negroes hold the balance of power. William H. Jackson was elected to the Fifty- seventh Congress and reelected to the Fifty elghth by 1,000 plurality. The democrats believe the negroes will become hopelessly confused with two Jacksons running for the same office and in the mixup votes intend- ed for the Republican nominee will be cast for his brother. The two Jacksons are business partners and the firm of Jackson Bros.’ company is one of the big lumber concerns of the state. Ex.-Guvernor Jackson has not signified his intention of accept ing ths nomination, but the Demo: crats are confident he will not decline Vardaman Denounces Negro But Saves His Life. Jacksoa, Miss., August 11.—Gov Vardaman has saved another negro by ordering the sheriff of Panola county to bring him here to jail. A few days since he was located in Arkansasand returned to Mississippi The sheriff notified Gov. Vurdaman the negro was in danger of being lynched, and he ordered him to Jack- son. Speaking of the matter Gov . Vardaman says: The negro deserves the death of a ferocious wild beast. I baveno sym pathy whatever for this fiend in dis- tor'ed human form. but Ihave great respect for the laws of Mississippi and my offiial onth, and, 8o help me God, I shall uphold the former and keep the latter, regardless of the nature or character of the person whose rights are involved.” The Deadly Cigarette, . Cumberland, Md., Aug. 12—James Zalinski, the national organ.zr of the United Mine Workers'of America, who has been assisting in the man- agement of the strike in the Myere- dale district since ite beginning, dropped dead Thursday.

Reinger, formerly president and treasurer of the Reinger lumber com- pany of Kansas City, Mo., was arrested here today on a warrant charging him with the embezzlement of $43,200 from the lumbercompany by Chief McGregor of the local police and a Kansas City detective who has been pursuing Reinger since July 27. Reinger itis alleged, admitted the embezzlement when arrested and said speculation on the Chicago board of trade was responsible for it. He refused to go to Kansas City with out requisition and is in jail here. Reinger declared that no punish- ment could .be inflicted upon him, claiming he was “the whole thing” in the Reinger lumber company, and that he acted upon the advice of a lawyer in taking the money and that he was on his way back to Kansas City when arrested. Reinger made an effort to escape while the officers were taking him to jail, and in the scuffle that ensued Detective John Hay, the Kansas City officer, was thrown and injured his knee, Reinger is alleged to have had a business partner in Chicago, and for several weeks detectives of that city shadowed the Chicago man (whose name is withheld), and when the Chicagoan took a boat for South Haven yesterday the detectives fol- lowed him. Reinger was waiting for his friend when the boat landed at South Haven and was arrested. A Wronged Husband Freed. Platte City, Mo., Aug. 11.—Jullus Rumpel, a saloonkeeper of Weston, was acquitted here last night of a charge of murder in the first degree after a trial which lasted three days and two nights. The jury reached a verdict on the first ballot after being out only forty minutes, Rumpel had shot and killed Dr. William J. Simp- son, a physician of Weston, the night ot June 3, 1904. He believed Dr. Simpson had been intimate with Mrs, Rumpel. The shooting was in Rumpel’s yard about 9:30 o'clock at night. The sentiment here was iu favor of the defendant and the ver- dict of the jury was no surprise Mr. Rumpel had not met his wife since the tragedy and when she was called to the witnes- stand he wept He did not once look at his wife dur- ing the trial; when she was on the witness stand relating the story of her infidelity he sat with downcaet eyes, visibly wincing when she told some incidents revealing the struggle she had made to be true to her hus- band. The night of June 3, Dr. Simpson had come to Rumpel’s place of busi- ness, as was his custom before going to his house, and seeing Rumpel there, had gone out. Rumpelfollow- ed, Entering by the side gate, he crept around the house to the bed- room window. Inside he heard his wife and & man talking in subdued tones, then there were footateps to- ward the front of the house. He heard Dr. Sitapson tell Mrs. Rumpel good night. He advanced upon Simpson as the latter came down the steps and fired, Dr. Simpson fell upon his face dead. Business Man Says . Roosevelt is Unsafe New York, August 12—A.

F. Dutea Eact indian army, who has just arrived here. “The Alas natives are,well armed, but their riflesdo not carry as far as those of our troops,” said he, “and in order to overcome this dis- advantage their leader, being well aware of the disinclination of our men to harm women and children, | place them in front of their fighting line as a livingscreen. “The women and children are some- times armed and have often fired at our troops. Sheltered by this screen, the natives often allow our men to approach within point-blank range of their positions Then they dis- charge an overwhelming fire. In al- most all engagements they have fol- lowed the same tactics, though re- peatedly warned by our officers. As ‘Will Sing With Melba in Con- | vention Hall January 4. | K. C. Star.

When 14 years old she made her first pub- lic appearance at a high school entertainment in the old Coates the- ater. The first formal musival occa- sion on which she appeared was at a recital given by Mr. Francois at the Academy of Music. Her voice at that time was a natural soprano and of great sweetness and quality. Miss Parkinson’s next important public appearance was at a sympho- ny orchestra concert..1t was her «THE PAIN KING.” Those who have ever felt its keen, cutting pains, or witnessed the intense suffering of others, know that Rheumatism is torture, and that it is right- ly called ** The King of Pain.” ® All do notsufferalike. Some are suddenly seized with th cry ting pains, and it Seems every muscle and joint in the body was being torn asunder, Others feel only occasional slight pains for weeks or months, when a sudden change in the weather or My cy eS to damp, chilly winds or night air brings on a fierce attack, lasting for days perhaps, and leaving the pa- tient with a weakened constitution or crippled and deformed for all time.

Paris, Aug. 11.—The report that Mre. Maybrick left Rouen on July 25 for America, making connection with a trans-Atlantic steamer, is confirm: ed. The correspondent gives the following details: “It required two vans to convey twelve trunks to the station. During her visit to Paris, a few days before her departure—which is also denied, but is absolutely true—Mrs. May- brick and her mother consulted a lawyer on her line of conduct. Mrs, Maybrick left in good health. It is probable that the story of Mrs. May- brick's threatened blindness origi- nated in the fact that during the past week three different residents of Rue Tannery were operated on for cataract. The doctors, however, did not go to the home of the Baron- ess de Roques, Mrs. «Maybrick’s mother.” Convict Gravelle Breaks Jail and Kills Himself.
