26 THE ADVERTISEMENTS. PUTTING IT STRONG But Doesn’t it Look Reasonablef This may read as though we were put- ting it a little strong, because it is'gener- ally thought by the majority of people that Dyspepsia in its chronic form is in- curable, or practically so. But we have long since shown that Dyspepsla is cur- able, nor is it such a difficult matter as at first appears. The trouble with Dyspeptics is. that they are continually dieting, starving | themselves, or going to opposite extreme or else deluging the aiready overburdened stomach ‘with “bitters,” “after dinner pills,” ete., which invariably increase the | difficulty, even if in some cases they do | give a 'slighy temporary relief. ‘Such | treatmen the stomach simply makes matters se. What the stomach wants is @ rest. viNow, how can the stomach be- come rested, recuperated and at the same time the body nourished and sustained? This is a great secret and this is also the secret of the uniform suecess of Stu- ert's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a com- paratively new remedy, but its success 2né popularity leave no doubt as to its merit. The Tablets will digest the food any- way, regardless of condition® of stomach. | The sufferer from Dyspepsia, according to directions, is to eat an abundance ofy good, wholesome food and ‘use the tablets lefore and after each meal and the result will be that the food will be digested, no mutter how bad your Dyspepsia may be, Dbecause, as before stated, the tablets will | digest the food even If the stomach is wholly inactive. To illustrate our mean- ing plainly, if you take 1800 grains of mest, eggs or ordinary food and place it in a temperature of 98 degrees and put one of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tab- | digest the meat or eggs almost | y as if the meat were enclosed | e stomach. The stomach may be ever so weak, yet | these tablets will perform the work of di- gestion and the body and brain will be preperly nourished and at the same time & redical, lasting cure of Dyspepsia will be made, because the much abused stom- gch will be given, to some extent, a much | needed rest. Your druggist will tell you that of all the many remedies advertised to cure Dyspepsia none of them has given £o complete and general satisfaction as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not least n importance in these hard times is the | fuct that they are also the cheapest and | give the most good for the least money.

FITZGERALD, KILL- ED AT GUATEMALA CITY BY W. GODFREY HUNTER JR. = UATEMALA CITY, Nov. 20.—If there is any hearing of the charge against W. Godfrey Hun- ter Jr., who on November 21 shot and killed William A. Fitz- gerald, it must be held in secret and by officials of the Government. It is maintained in some quarters here that the trial of young Hunter must take place in the United States. No evidence will be asked for by the Guatemalan of- ficizls from actual eye witnesses of the affair if the testimony is taken “in camera.” NEW YORK, Nov. 20.—Some interesting éetails of the events leading up to the shooting in Guatemala City of William A. Fitzgerald by Godfrey Hunter Jr., son of Hunter of Xentucky, TUnited States Minister to GWatemala, were given to-day by a man well known in Central | America, but whose name is withheld, as | he is about to return south. He said: “The shooting of Willlam A. Fitzgerald by Godfrey Hunter Jr. brought to a sud- den and tragical end a career as pic- turesque as it was short. As a iype of the soldier of fortune, ‘Billy’ Fitzger- ald would have made the heart of Dumas | jump with joy. Six feet tall, dark and handsome, the young Michigan man would have been a noticeable figure in any company. A rascal he may have | been, but if so ke was a lovable rascal. His recklessness endeared him to the strcng men with whom he came in con- tact in Central American countries—men of venturesome temperaments; who, for the daring in them, admired and re- spected the superlative daring in him. “In_a country where revolutions are periodical events, Fitzgerald was not long in finding an oportunity of staking his life on the nossibility of fame and for- tune. Restless General Vasquez was am- bitious of deposing Terencio Sierra, Presi- dent of Honduras, and of seating him- self in the Presidential chair in his stead. | He enlisted the services of Fitzgerald, ho was then but 21, and a number of more or le: known adventurers, amcrg them Jeffries, the new admiral of | the Colombian fleet; Colonel Pennypacker, now general superintendent of the Cen- ! Colonel J. Bazcom Jones, now major general of ar- tiilery in the Guatemala army, and _Col- Richards, recently banished, from Guatemala for excessive revolutionary propensities. “‘Fitzgerald, anxious to distinguish him- self and yielding to his dare-devil and im- puirive instinct, decided to open hostili- k2 ties independently of the rest. On Octo- ber 7, 1897, with a company of thirteen Aniericans, Fitzgerald paddled across the lagcon separating Puerto Cortez from the mairland, and at the dead of night en- tered the town. A rush.on the cuartel, where a garison of 300 men was stationed, resulted in complete victory for the at- tacking party. The fourteen Americans had captured the town. As the nature of Central Americans is one of general in- aifference and. of quick changes in the matter of political convictions, Puerto Cortez, from a faithful Sierra port, be- came in the short space of an hour a warm Vasquez town. “The conquerors were hailed as ‘libera- | tadcres’ and toasted in ‘aguardiente’ and rum. It was a-night of great revelry and many ‘vivas’ for Vasques. In the morn- | inz twelve of the fourteen Americans were so intoxicated as to be unable to tell their own names. It was at this juncture | that word was brought to Fitzgerald, who | had taken up his headquarters in the Al- | calde’s house, that 3000 men were on the way to recapture Puerto Cortez. “Either because he himself was not | sober, or else because he knew the Hon- { durian populace to be partisans of the | upper dog, Fitzgerald decided to keep to himself the knowledge of the 4mpending | attack upon the town by the Government troops. He tried to enlist his thirleen | men in defense of the place, but found them ail, with one exception, stupefied | with liquor and unable to stand. The | exception was Lee Christmas, a locomo- | tive engineer, now chief of police of | Tegucigalpa, the capital (of Honduras. | Christmas and Fitzgerald rode to the freight yards of the railroad and there | commandeered a locomotive and a flat jrcar, | “Puerto Cortez, it must be explained, is on a peninsula. Fitzgerald and Christmas ; | ran the locomotive and flatcar up the line | to where a strip of land connecting ‘the peninsula to the mainland is the narrow- est and there awaited the arrival of .the Government troops. On the flatcar breast- works of sugar bags had been built. With- in a quadrangle made of these bags, Fitz- gerald took up his position with four | Winchesters and several hundred rounds’ of ammunition. . At dawn 3000 men ap- peared, marching in close formation on the railroad track, there being no other trail. The fire that greeted them from the flatcar cleared the track in five seconds, every man takirg cover in the jungle. Until 8 o'clock at night Fitzgerald alone held the Honduras army at bay, Christ- mas loading the guns for him, then fear- ing an attack en masse under cover of darkness, the order of retreat was given and the locomotive and flatcar steamed back into Puerto Cortez. That same night, Fitzgerald and Christmas left In a canoe, and Puerto Cortez was retaken. General Drummond, who had been the nominal head of the expedition against the town, was captured and taken to San Pedro, but escaped two weeks later. “Fitzgerald, knowing how much his head was worth, walked 120 miles into { Guatemala. In his fight on the rallroad track®he had killed eighteen and wounded half a hundred of the ‘enemy SAN FRANCISCO CALL WATER SUPPLY ~ A BiG FAGTOR Canal. Route Experts Make Thorough In- vestigation. Question of Isthmus Rainfall Enters Into the . Problem. CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N W., WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—The inves- tigation of the water supply for the isth- mian canal was as important a factor in the selection of the route as' the survey of the physical features of the country tkrough which it must pass. If the original intention of the French engineers to make the canal a tide-water passage had been carried out the water supply of the’country would not have been a factor to be considered, except for the embarrassment occasionally caused by extreme floods which might find their way into the canal. But when the tide- water project was abandoned and it was decided that a canal crossing the conti- nental divide by means of locks with a summit level of nearly 100 feet above the sea was the most feasible plan of con- struction, it became of the utmost im- portance to determine whether the natur- al supply of the region in the form of nearby. streams would be sufficlent to pro- vide the amount of water necessary to operate the canal. There will obviously be a constant drain on the waters of the summit level h every vessel passing through the locks, which will be so considerable that large quantities of water must be secured to replenish it. Careful estimates have placed this amount necessary to meet the losses from lockage, power, leakage and evaporation—the last being by no means an unimportant factor in a tropical cli- mate—at an amount equal to a constant flow of 1070 cubic feet per second. FIELD INVESTIGATION. Such an investigation was carried on | by the Isthmian Commission for a num- ber of years under Arthur P. Davis of the United States Geological Survey, as chief hydrographer, and included both the reglons of the Nicaragua and Panama routes. The results of this work are of much interest and will shortly appear in the twenty-second annual report of the United States Geological Survey, part IV, | which is now in press. From this comprehensive report it is| seen that the feasibility of the Panama | route rests upon the magnitude and habit | of the Chagres River, from which it must | §i draw its supply for the simmit level, and | from which its lower levels will be in | danger in times of flood. To a less degree | the Grande River, at the southern end of i the line, is of similar importance. i Before the Panama route could be defi- | nitely recommended several important | facts regarding the Chagres River had to ! be determined. First, the amount of its | minimum flow, to find how little water might be expected at certain seasons to ! feed the summit level; second, the magni- tude of its flood discharge, to show how much surplus water would have to be dis- posed of in times of freshet without in- jury to the canal or detention to its traf- fic; third, the possibility of storing water In reservoirs for use in times of low wa- ter; and fourth, a knowiedge of the rain- fall of the region, on which the flow of | the streams depends. | PROCESS ' OF EXPERTS. One of the first steps taken in the inves- tigation was a careful review in Paris of | the records of rainfall and stream flow | kept by the engineers of the French Pan- | ama Canal companies, both first and sec- | I ond, which, though fairly complete, were found lacking In respect to flood records. The next step was to verify and extend these observations. This was done by es tablishing gauging stations, where careful | measurements were made of the amount ; of flow by means of current meters and b float rods and by gauges set in the stream | to record its daily heights and fluctua- tions, from which the maximum, mini- mum and mean discharges were com- | puted. The projected canal from Colon to Pana- ma is forty-seven miles long, and for more than half its course it follows the | valley of the Chagres River. Although the country is covered with heavy vegeta- | tion, the slopes are so precipitous and the rock is so near the surface that violent | tropical rainfalls lasting only a few hours | cause heavy and sudden floods. This is the feature which makes the study of the flow of the lower Chagres of such import- | ance. L 1 The rainfall, though cqpious, was found | to be peculiar on account of the striking | { difference in its amount. on the northern and southern sides of the isthmus, the mean yearly rainfall at Colon being 130 inches, while that at Panama, less than seventy miles distant, was only 66.8 inches. x Killed in a Runaway. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2).—James B. Marke, a prominent banker and society | man, was killed to-night in a runaway ac- | cident. Clarence Dunbar, the footman; George Tomlinson, the coachman, and | Harry Grady, a pedestrian, who attempt- ed to stop the frightened horses, were badly injured. Mr. Marke climbed out of the carriage and onto the pole of the carriage, grasp- ing the horses’ bridles. . In doing so he ' was thrown to the ground, sustaining a | fractured skull. He died on the way to the hospital. ANNUAL CANDY CATHARTIC THEY WORK WHILE YOU!

Glasco admitted assaulting Miss Malones” and said it was done in revenge for her brother striking him. The girl is in a serious condition.

They arrived from | Dayton, Ohio, vesterday noon and at once | followed the trail from the place of as- | sault in roundabout courses to the saloon | where William Glasco had been arrested. | They went over the course the second time, followed by thousands of enraged people, threatening vengeance. It was evident to the .uthorities that lynching |- was contemplated. | ~Early to-day the mob gathered and iselectod fifty then as leaders in the gen- | | eral movement on the armory and jail. At the armory they demanded the keys | of Captain Thompson so that they could ! secure rifles. On being refused’ they | opened fire with revolvers and Captain Thompson narrowly escaped. When the mob could do nothing at the armory it moved ‘on the jail. The Sheriff refused the demand for the keys. Then the mob moved off to secure battering rams with which to break into the jail. The Sheriff at-once spirited the prisoner out of the rear of the jail and escaped. While the mob was around the jail Glasco was frightened and confessed to the jailer. Sheriff Taylor and his prisoner reached Gallipolis to-night. The town is compar- atively quiet to-night. e —— WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY IN THE FAR NORTH Engineers Sent North by the Marconi Company Complete the 2 First Station. SEATTLE, Nov. 20.—Richard Pfund and H. C. Welby, the engineers in charge of the carrying out of the contract of the Marconi Wireless Telegraphy Company with the United States Government for installing a wireless telegraph system in the Yukon and Tanana districts, arrived in Seattle this morning on the Manau- erse. Owing to the lateness of the season the return trip from Alaska was made by way of Siberia. The mission upon which the party.was engaged was that of establishing the Mar- coni service for the use of the signal corps of the United States army between Tort Gibbon, at the junction of the Yu- kon and Tanana rivers, and two points on the Tanana, one 100 miles and the other 200 miles away. * The station at Fort Gibbon was en- tirely completed and the other two would have-been but for an inconsistency in the wording of tHe contract, which necessitated an interpretation from Wash. ing and a resulfing delay. “The station at Fort Gibbon is the first | president to be completed in the system which the Government has planned for use in the far North. The contract was let in June. We did not reach Fort Gibbon with the poles and apparatus until August 26, but we had the first station completed on September 16,” said Mr. Pfund, the en: gineer in charge of the party. "The other two stations could have been fin- ished but for a misunderstanding of the terms of the contract as to the places of their location. As it is, we have all the materials on the ground and the work can be finished quickly in the spring.” Northern Pacific Buys Branch Line.

SUITS TO INVALIDATE CONSTITUTION DISMISSED Chief Justice Fuller of Supreme Court Passes on Important Virginia Case. RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 29.—Chief- Jus- tice Fuller of the United States Supreme Court and Judge Waddill, sitting in the Circuit Court to-day, dismissed the suits brought by John S. Wise to invalidate the new Virginia constitution, holding that the Federal Court had no jurisdic- tion, the actlons being against the State. An appeal will be taken. All the ques- tions of the Chief Justice indicated wir- tually that every contention raised by the complainants had been passed upon ad- versely by the Supreme Court. The decision was delivered by Chief Jus- tice Fuller. Judge Waddill concurred in the decision, bu differed with the Chief Justice in some minor points.
