WOMEN MUST SLEEP.
Avoid Nervous Prostration.
If you are dangerously sick what is
the first duty of your physician? He
quiets the nervous system, he deadens
the pain, and you sleep well.
Friends ask. "what is the cause?”
and the answer comes in pitying
tones, nervous prostration. It came
upon you so quietly iu the beginning,
that you were not alarmed, aud when
sleep deserted you night after night
until your eyes fairly burned in the
darkness, then you tossed iu nervous
agony praying for sleep.
Mm*. A. Hartley.
You ought to have known that
when you ceased to be regular in your
jourses, and you grew irritable with
out cause, that there was serious
trouble somewhere.
You ought to know that indigestion,
exhaustion, womb displacements,
fainting, dizziness, headache, and
backache send the nerves wild with
affright, and you cannot sleep.

A *.
PIOTAIIj nOLD TO MANCHURIA
Czar Threatens to Sever Diplo
matic Relations and Force the
"Celestials” to Sign.
Information has reached Washing
ton to the effect that the Russian gov
-1 eminent, being seriously perturbed by
the course of China in not siguing the
l Manchurian agreement, largely be
i cause of the protest made by the sev
eral powers, has conveyed a distinct
and unmistiikable indication to China
that if this course is persisted iu there
may be an interruption of diplomatic
relations between Russia and China
and a termination of the present inter
course between them. This is little
short of an ultimatum that China must
sign or take the consequence of a ter
mination of her friendly relations with
Russia.
To what extent the United States
will take cognizance of Russia’s dis
position to enforce the signing of the
agreement has not yet been made ap
parent. It appears to be the policy of
the Chinese authorities to consider
this as a subject which concerns the
powers quite as much as it does China.
The matter has become further com
plicated by reports reaching Wasbing
i'ngton that the Chinese authorities
themselves are divided on the course
to be pursued, some of the most in
fluential, including Li Hung Chang,
urging that acquiescence be given to
the Russian proposals, while others
insist on rejecting the agreement.
The attitude of Li Hung Chang is ac
counted for by his well-known friend
liness for Russian interests. In this
case, however, tLere appears to be ar
rayed against him the strong influence
of the southern viceroys, Chan Chi
Tung and Lia Kun Yi, who oppose
the signing of the treaty. The reports
reaching Washington Monday morn
ing showed that the agreement not yet
been signed.
A London special says: ‘‘The Chi
nese emperor, I am officially informed,
has instructed the Chinese plenipo
tentiaries,” says the Pekin corres
pondent of The Daily Mail, ‘‘not to
sign the Manchurian convention even
iu a modified form.”
Dr. Morrison, wiring to The Times
from Pekin March ‘2Bth, says:
“The Yang-tse viceroys have carried
the day. Li Hung Chang, who wired
Tuesday urging Emperor Kwang Su
to reconsider his decision, received an
answer that the throne’s decision, in
the presence of the unanimous advice
of the chief provincial officials, was
irrevocable, and that the Manchurian
convention could not be signed.
“In spite of her threats, Russia
seems destined to slam the door. Ne
gotiations between Li Hung Chang
and M. Do Giers were certainly pro
ceeding yesterday when M. De Giers
agreed to several formal amendments
to the text. Russia’s cynical and bold
diplomacy appears for once to have
over-reached itself.”
MORE TIME ASKED.
It is claimed here on reliable author
ity that China has asked Russia to al
low her a further extension of time
before directing the question of sign
itg the Manchurian agreement. Both
M. De Giers and the Chinese officials
refuse to talk on the subject.

MURDERER CONFESSES
V’alet Jones Tells In Court How
Millionaire Rice Was Done
To Death.
A New York special says Without
the slightest quaver in his voice and
displaying no outward sign of regret
or remorse, Charles F. Jones, secre
tary and valet to the late William
Marsh Rice, confessed under oath in
Justice Jerome’s court Tuesday that
he had ended the life of his employer
and benefactor with chloroform.
The confession was the climax of a
remarkable recital in which was laid
bare the details on an alleged subtle
conspiracy which had for its object
the seizure of $1,000,000 in cash and
negotiable securities and the conver
sion of three millions in realty to the
use of the alleged chief conspirator.
There was a dramatic force in the
directness and minute attention to de
tail with which Jones approached the
tragedy—the moment wheD he covered
the face of the sleeping man with the
saturated napkin and then waited for
him to die.
The self confessed murderer told the
story of the alleged plot from its con
ception. The capital crime he com
mitted and all the minor offenses that
preceded it were, he declared, at the
instigation aud direction of lawyer
Albert T. Patrick.
It was Patrick, he said, who con
ceived the idea of forging a will
aud forging transfers and conveyances,
tt was Patrick who induced two per
sons to witness the forged signature.
It was Patrick who determined that
Rice should die and it was Patrick who
sought, to have him killed slowly and
then becoming impatient determined
upon quick action. And, according to
Jones, remarkable as it may seem,Rice
never knew him during his life time
and never saw him but once.
Jones, according to his story, first
began his acquaintance with Patrick
when the lawyer called at the resi
dence of Millionaire Rice on Madison
avenue in October, 1899. The witness
told of the growing friendship and the
gradual approach to the discussion of
the affairs of Mr. Rice, which finally
resulted in the proposition to defimu 1,
and Jones finally yielded.
Then came the details of the story
of the transfers and conveyances of
real and personal property to Patrick
over the forged signatures of Rice; the
stealing of bank checks from the mil
lionaire’s check book; their delivery
to Patrick and the forging of Rice’s
signature; the proposition to put the
aged millionaire ou t of the way, first
weakening him by continuous doses of
mercury, the calling iu of a physician
at frequent intervals, thus apparently
providing for the issuance of a death
certificate; and the extreme care with
which this plan of slow poisoning was
carried out.
Then, as calmly as though unfold
ing the plot of a drama in which he
w r as interested only as a spectator,
Jones led up to the day of the murder.
