ADVERTISEMENTS. 2 According to the no j of Richarason and his con temporaries, in the olden days men used to admire women who screamed upon the least provoca- tion and fainted on all opportunities. Rich- ardson’s heroines were always toppling out » ) of their chairs, fall- ing in a ‘‘dead faint” \ 7, in their lovers’ arms, | having their stays \ | cut and their hands \Jy slapped, their tem. ples bathed and K their noses smelling- salted. ‘ Both the women and the %' men have changed radically since those days. The modern man does not admire the fainting woman, neither does he marry her. If by chance he does, he is only a man, and lives to regret it. There is no reason why any woman should be a faint- ing woman. _General bodily weakness and nervousness in women are due to weakness or discase of the delicate, special organs of the sex. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a scientific and unfailing remedy for all disorders of this description. It imparts health and strength to the sensitive and susceptible organs upon which a woman’s general health is largely dependent. It quiets and tones up the nerves, restores the vigor of youth, rounds out the emaciated form, imparts the glow of health to the complexion and transforms weak, sickly, nervous invalids into new, healthy, happy women.

Proposition Said to Have Been Made to Wells-Fargo. | NEWCASTLE, June 2%.—A rumor is in circulation that a proposition has been made by the fruit growers to Wells Fargo & Co. to put on a ventilator car service for fruit shipments to Chi- cago, St. Paul, Denver, Helena, New | York and Boston, the cars to be attached to passenger trains through to destina- | tion. It is claimed that by the use of | ventilated fruit cars and the difference | of time made by the passenger train ser ice, fruft will arrive at its destination in as good shape, If not in better shape, than by the present system of refrigera- tion.

Protective | DEMOCRATS I ) FERCE FARCE |Hot Times in Kentucky Convention. e EIGHT HOURS OF UPROAR il NESS BEING TRANSACTED. Two Ballots Taken on the Nomination for Governor, and Goebel Still Holds His Own Against the Field. Special Dispatch to The Call LOUISVILLE, K June 26.—A con- | tinuous performance of farce lasting eight hours, a rare vocal entertainment with soloists and a chorus of several hundred voices, declamations and tin- horn tests of lung power, made up the programme of the sixth day’'s session of the Democratic State Convention, and it narrowly escaped winding up in an exhibition of pugilism and gun fight- ing. From 10 o'clock until 6 to-day | Central Music Hall contained without doubt the most uproarious and disor- derly body of men that ever gathered for the transaction of political or other business. Angered by what they considered an arbitrary ruling of the chairman in re- ng to allow an appeal from his de- m declaring out of order a motion to remove policemen from the hall, over half the delegates set about with all the energy they could command to prevent by sheer force of lung power transaction of any further business un- till they secured a voté on the appeal. This plan was successfully carried out until nearly o'clock this evening, 6 when, principally because of utter phy- sical exhaustion, the filibusters allowed themselves to be outwitted, and the vote on nomination for Governor, which the chair had ordered early in the ['morning and had tried repeatedly to proceed with, was concluded by having | the county chairmen, or as many as would, come to the stage andyell their votes at the clerk, who, at a distance of a few inches, was able to catch the figures. The teeth of recalcitrants having been pried open, the bitter dose slowly trickled down and before they fairly realized they were beaten, a second bai- lot was reached, this time with less tribulation. These two ballots, both fruitless, represent the day’s work of the convention. After they were cqmpleted all were glad enough to ad- irn until 10 o’clock to-merrow morn- ing. Behind this noisy entertainment three | candidates for Governor worked like beavers. against the field and the Benton Coun- ty leader, cold and nerveless as ever, has successfully defied his two oppo- nents to combine and beat him. The; may do it yet, but so far they have shown themselves weefully lacking in ability to th heir vote in any one direction or keep it silent when it seem- ed best to their managers that no vote he cast. Goebel controls the organiza- tion of the conventicn and through it the Srate Central Committee, and they probably will attack him here too, if they can get tcgether. To-day's events will tend to bring them closer, but at present the' fight is as open and as fierce as it has been at any time. The first ballot of the day resulted as follows: Goebel, 352%2; Stene, 261%: Hardin, 67.

INGTON HOTEL, WASHIN TON, June 26.—Secretary Alger received a dispatch from Gen- ‘ eral Otis to-day reiterating his | statement that 80,000 effective | men will be sufficient to enable him to control the Philippines situation. This | dispatch was not made public, but will | be 1aid before the President when he re- | turns to Washington to-morrow. | The message from Otis was in response, 1 understand, to a cablegram sent from ‘Washington vesterday asking again if he was in need of additional troops. AS a re- | sult of his statement there is a disposi- | tlon not to raise volunteers, although, as | the officials with whom I talked sald, this was a matter which the President | alone can now decide, and his decision | will be announced after his return | In view of Otis’ report that 12 per cent of his men are ill, it was stated at the | War Department that it was to provide General Otis with a fighting force of 20,- 000 men at all times that additional regu- lars have been ent to Manila. The de- partment was advigsed to-day of the sail- ling of the transport Sheridan from San Franelsco with more than 1700 men and a number of officers. In military circles there is still hope that the President, notwithstanding Ot's’ statement that 30,000 men are all he needs, will authorize the raising of volun- teers. ExXpert strategists declare that for the moral effect the call would produce, if for nothing else, the President ought { to authorize the organization of at least | ten regiments. General Otis, In a reply to a cable from | the War Department asking for informa- | tion regarding the situation and condi- | tions in the Philippines, to-day cabled a ! long reply as follows: MANILA, June 26— Adjutant General, Wash- | ington: In the rainy season little inland | campaigning is possible in Luzon. We occupy a large portion of the Tagolog country ur lines stretching from Imus on the south, to n Fernando on the north, nearly sixty miles, and to the eastward into Laguna prov- | ince. The insurgent armies have suffered great | losses and are scattered. The only large | force is held together, about 4000, in Tarlac ‘Iprn\'(n(f» and Northern Pampanga Their scattered forces are in bands of 30 to 500 in other portions of Luzon. In Cav and Ba ngas provinces they could. assemble possibly | 00, though demoralized from recent defeat The mass of the people are terrorized by the | insurgent soldiers and desire peact d Ameri- can protection. They no longer flee on the approach of our troops unless forced by the insurgents, but gladly welcome them. There has beem no recent burning of towns The population within our lines is becoming dense ion is taken up extensively kept out of Manila as much as as the city population is becoming to be cared for. The natives of Southeast Luzon are combining to drive out the insurgents, The only hope of the insurgent leaders is United States aid. They proclaim the near overthrow of the present administra- tion, to be followed by their independence and recognition by the United States.. This is the influence which enables them to hold out; much contention prevails among them, and no civil government remains. Trade with ports not in® our possession, a former source of in- surgent revenue, are now Interdicted. 1 am | not certain of the wisdom of this policy as the | people In those parts are without a supply of | food and merchants are suffering losses. I meditate restoring trade privileges, although | the insurgents might reap the benefits. The | courts here are in successful operation under | the direction of able Filipinos. | Affairs in the other islands are comparatively quiet, awaiting results in Luzon.

JORDAN—PRIVATE DISEASES ¢ SAYS THE BABY WAS MURDERED THAOUGH SPITE Proving a Motive in Mrs. Adams’ Case. e For many weary hours yesterday Wilson Gray occupled the stand in Judge Law- lor's court as a witness against Mrs. Min- nie Adams, the mother of his illegitimate son, who is on trial for the murder of her infant, alleged to have been caused by administering a dose of carbolic acid. The accused sat through the day without manifesting the least anxiety, but at times a little impatience. If she is gullty of the crime she.is of a peculiar composition and worthy of the study of the most famous criminologists. All day long the prosecution endeavored to prove a motive for the crime, the alle- ation being that little John Gray, the gead baby, was the innocent victim of the mother's spite against the father. At length the prosecution delved into Gray's statement that the accused had threat- ened to leave the bottle of carbolic acid within the dead child's reach, and had even gone so far as to threaten to place it in its tiny hands that it might drink and satisfy the mother’s craving for re- venge upon the father, who was devoted to_his child. ‘When the witness was finally turned over to W.
