JOHNSON S TONIC. F B
The sickest man is not always in bed. The meanest kind
,f sickness is just to be able to attend to one’s duties. With
rich blood in your veins you perform, with pleasure, the work
that becomes an arduous task for half well people.
Why don’t you take JOHNSON’S TONIC? It is the
World S Greatest Medicine. The dealer makes less money on
JOHNSON’S TONIC than on any other kind. Now remember
that your health is your business and making money is his
business.
It would pay you better to drive twenty-five miles to get a
bottle of JOHNSON S TONIC rather than use the cheap kind
that pays more profit to the dealer.
Money-making and Life-saving don’t run very close togeth
er. JOHNSON’S TONIC is the kind that cures. It is 100 times
better than Quinine. Does in one day what slow Quinine
cannot do in ten days.
Better do your own thinking when your health is at stake.
Insist upon having the World’s Greatest Medicine,
JOHNSON’S CHILL and FEVER TONIC.

CALEB POWERS TRIAL
MAY END IN TRAGEDY
Threats Have Been Made on
Judge Can trill’s Life.
FRIENDS GUARDING HIM
When a Cot Was Brought In For the
Judge, a Mountaineer Slgulilcautly
Remarked That He Would Certainly
Need It Before Trial Kudoda
Georgetown, Ky., Oct. 10.—The
friends of Judge James E. Oantnll are
guarding him closely, as it is reported
that threats hare boon made against
his life. Mrs. Uantrill ordered a coc to
be taken to the courthouse to be used by
the judge, who is not in good health.
As the men entered the courthouse with
the cot he was compelled to elbow his
way through a crowd of mouutaiueers
dt the door.
“What’s that cot for?” asked one of
the men.
“For Judge Cantrill,” replied the
man.
“Take it on. That d—> will
need that cot before this trial is over,”
said one of the men.
The man left the cot in the office of the
master commissioners and hastened back
to tell Mrs. Oantnll what he had heard.
Mrs. Oantnll quickly notified Com*
mouwealth’s Attorney Franklin and all
possible arrangements were then made
today looking to the safety of the judge.
Frank Heeney, who saw Goebel fall,
was the fy-st witness today in the trial
of ex-Secretary of State Powers.
Graham Vreelaud described “the
crowd from the mountains” and told of
a meeting in the agricultural building,
at which it was proposed that “they go
to the Capitol hotel und get Goebel,

H. K. Watkins, captain of the militia
company in Williamsburg, Whitley
county, said John L. Powers told hiuT
there were men in Frankfort who could
give the governor an excuse to call out
the militia. Powers wanted him to take
his company to the capitaL H« in
structed shat the men take their guns,
but not wear their uniforms. Watkins
said he relused to go.
John A. Black, a banker at Barbour-
ville, testified that ne advised Caleb
Powers against taxing mountain men
to Frankfort. He went to a conference
between Cnaries Finley, Caleb and John
Powers, Wnarton Gold and others, bur
left when tney decided to take the
mountain men to the capital Captain
J. F. Hawn of the Barbourville mili
tary company said that Caleb and Joan
Powers wanted him to take his soldiers
to Frankfort. He told Powers his sym
pathies were with the other side.
Miss Ella Smith of Barbonrville testi
fied that John L Powers said he would
be willing to kill Goebel himself if the
contest were decided in Goebel’s favor.
The defense objected, alleging that
Miss Smith’s testimony had been writ
ten out for her by Thomas Cromwell
and that she had memorized it.
The court overruled the objection.
Representative Luke Hampton of
Knox and Whitley counties testified
that Taylor told him that the 42 Repub
licans in the house should demand their
right. Taylor said he could not call out
the militia until something was done.

There are people who say that the
benefit derived from the use of put-up
medicines is imaginary. It is not the
case with Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion, which makes weak women strong
and 6ick women well. A woman may
imagine she’s weak, or may fancy she’s
sick, but her imagination can't add forty
pounds to her weight. The positive
proof of the curative power of « Favorite
Prescription " is found in the restoration
of health which is recorded in face and
form, of strength which can be tested,
and'weight which can be registered in
pounds and ounces.
The general health of women is so
intimately conuected with the local
health of the womanly organ's that
when these are diseased the whols body
suffers loss. I>r. Pierce’s Favorite Pre
scription cures womanly diseases. It
establishes regularity, stops weakening
drains, heals inflammation and ulcera
tion and cures female weakness.
«I am very glad to let other poor sufferers
know what Dr. I'ierce’s medicines have done
for me,” writes Mn» Kdwin H. Gardner, of
Beechwood, Norfolk Co., Mass. (Box 70.) R You
know I wrote to you Ufit summer. I read what
your medicine had done for other people, so
thought I would try it, and I found it was a
blessing to me and my family. I began In June
and took six bottles of your medicine, and three
vials of * Pellets.’ I took your medicine a year
when I had a ten-pound girl. I had the easiest
time I ever had with any of my three children.
I have been very well since I took your medi
cine. I took three bottles of ‘ Favorite Prescrip
tion.’ three of ‘ Gulden Medical Discoveiy.’ and
three vials of ‘ Pellets.’ I 'iad no appetite and
could not eat much without it distressing me
before I took your ‘ Favorite Prescription,’ and I
only weighed 135 pounds. Now X weigh 175."

Though the Commissioner Did Not An*
tlcipale Further Outbreak., New. 1.
Deceived by the Steamer Emprcsi of
«Japuu of u Rebellion In Cbl Li.
Victoria, a O., Oot. 10.—Mr. W. Vt.
Bockhill, the United States commie-
sioner, who represented the United
States in the negotiations botween the
allies and China, arrived yesterday by
the steamship Empress of Japan on his
way to Washington. He has with him
, copy of the protocol betwoeu China
and the powers which was reoently
signed by the representatives of the va
rious nations interested. He will pro
ceed direct to Washington by the Cana
dian railroad.
Affairs in China havq resumed their
normal state, the commissioner said in
an interview. He did not anticipate any
farther oatbreak, bat there was no tell
ing what wonld happen in Ohino. So-
called Insurrections in Kan Sn and
Manchuria, he said, wore simply local
uprisings, which had been very much
exaggerated.
. Foreign Troops Withdrawn.
Three hundred Chinese troops entered
Pekin on Sept. 17 and the keys of the
gates were hauded over to the prince
with elaborate ceremony. All foreign
troops were withdrawn with the excep
tion of the legation guards »-d guards
at the railway stations. Since the Tien
Tsiu affair there had been no trouble
over the railroad from the coast to Pe
king, in fact the commercial interests
seemed to bo taking charge of the coun
try and a committee was being organ
ized to condact commercial negotiation,
with Chino. This commission will re*
vise the plans and arrhnge for the open
ing of more ports.
Before Mr. Rockhill left Poking the
Chinese troops had commenced to polico
the city. The people, he said, had ben-
efitted by the occupation, they having
been given work rebuilding the lega
tions and other works at wages which
they had never dreamed of. On the
ether hand, many of those who were
well off before the occupation had been
rendered destitute. Ths legation con
cessions had been greatly increased and
the British legation is being built in the
form of a fort with a moat ai:(i gnus
mounted.
Mr. Rockhill said he expeoted to hear
very shortly of the return of the coart
to Peking.
While missionaries were murdered
and tortured in other parts of China,
Roman Catholic missionaries had lived
under the protection of the coart at
Hsiang Fu. British officers and mis
sionaries had since visited the coart and
were very warmly received.
Mr. Rockhill says many people will
begin starving in the distrlot in which
Hsiang Fa is situated, but the reports
of the famine in other parts of the em
pire sent one to the press have been
greatly exaggerated. Tne famine is the
result of the failure of the crops.
News of Further Rebellion..
News was received by the Empress of
Japan of fjtrcher rebellions in China.
A pitched battle oocnrrod on Sept. 30,
between the imperial Chinese forces an-
dcr General Tsen and a force of 7,000

miles soath of Poa Ting Fa. Thirty
rebels were killed, many were wonnded
and the remainder fled. Several villages
were taken by the troops. In Chon
Chon a rebellion has also takon place
and the missionaries have botfn driven
out At Kiang Shan several of the
rebels have been seized and beheaded.
Missionaries also tell of troubles at
Kb.ng Si. Many letters have been writ
ten to the North China Doily Nows tell
ing of the risings in the vicinity, bnt
giving few detail*.
The North China Daily News reports
mnch military hotlvity by Rassin in the
north, and states that a number of
troops have been sent south, whore it is
believed they will be massed on the Co.
rean frontier. The Japanese minister
to Corea has returned to Tokyo aud in
an interview he says that there are 40,-
000 Russian troops in Manchnrio. He
says as soon as the Chinese coart is es
tablished at Peking tho question of the
evacuation by Bnssia will be taken up.
Russia bos offered China 6,000,000 taels
for her fleet of warships, according to
the Shanghai Mercury. Many paper,
print reports that the Peking conre has
been postponed for two years.

dead In her bed in the front room of her

The police fonnd the room in whioh
the dead woman lay thrown wide open,

up. The inmates of the house for the
night, Eula Crouoh and 0. M. Jones,
did not know of the crime until they
got np yesterday morning. They had
heard nothing during the night tooaase
them to make an investigation.
An examination of the premises
showed that the house was entered from
a side window opening into the yard.
Two beer kegs bad been rolled nnder
the window and piled one upon the
other. The kegs were gotten severul
doors away. Tho window bad evidently
been raisod with difficulty, os two panes
of glass had been cracked. At the front
window a brick was fonnd on the out-
sido ou the sill, but the window could

ignorant of the life the daughter was
leading. They thought her married.
