SO STATES IN OPEN COURT
Some Further Sensational Developments
in the Goebel Assassination In¬
vestigation At Frankfort.
There were some startling develop¬
ments in the Goebel assassination at
Frat kfort Tuesday. W. H. Culton,
who waved examination and was held
over to the circuit court, went to
the Capitol hotel, where he was in
conference with the attorneys for the
prosecution for over two hours. He
was accompanied by his brother-in-
law, E. E. Hogg, who is also his attor¬
ney. Culton was reported to have
made a confession, but later it devel¬
oped that the information gained was
not as sweeping as thought. His
friends admit that he gave the prose¬
cution such information as he had and
which had heretofore not come out.
Henry E. Youtsey, Republican Audi¬
tor Sweeny’s clerk, was arrested at
noon and locked up in jail charged
with being £n accessory to the assassi¬
nation. He is a half brother of Hon.
L." J. Crawford, a prominent Republi¬
can of Newport, and detectives arrest¬
ed him as the man with the black
mustache whom Golden mentioned as
being given the key to Caleb Power’s
office. Youtsey complained the prose¬
cution bad broken faith in arresting
him, and it is said he is ready to
make a public statement for which the
prosecution is not anxious at this
time.
POWERS HELD FOR TRIAL.
At Tuesday’s session of the examin¬
ing trial of the Republican secretary of
state, Caleb Powers, the courtroom
was cleared of all persons except at¬
torneys, newspaper representatives
and court officers. The defense an¬
nounced they would introduce no testi¬
mony and tendering Governor Taylor’s
pardon of Powers, asked that the de¬
fendant be dismissed upon the evi¬
dence. The commonwealth disputed
Taylor’s right and tho court overruled
the motion. Bail was asked for. Judge
Moore said:
"It is not my belief that Powers
fired the shot which killed Gover¬
nor Goebel, but from the evidence,
it is my opinion that he was con¬
nected with the conspiracy to kill
him. I shall, therefore, order
that he be held over without bail
to the Franklin county grand jury
that the case may be further in¬
vestigated. ”
Culton’s counsel announced that
Culton waived his examination trial
and by agreement of tbe attorneys he
will remain at home with his sick wifu
under private guard. Captain John
Davis also waived examination and
was admitted to bail in the sum of
$5,000. He was locked up for tho night.
The Democratic militia will be re¬
tained in Frankfort until after the cir¬
cuit court, which begins Monday, and
at which Secretary Powers and others
are to be tried.

Members of Investigating Commit¬

FISTICUFFS THREATENED.
Lie "Was Bandied About and
Strong Talk Indulged In.
The fifth day of Governor Steunen-
berg’s testimony in the Coeur d’Alene
investigation began at Washington
Wednesday morning. Representative
Lentz continued the cross-question¬
ing.
The climax was reached when Chair¬
man Hull was det"innced by all the
Democratic members of the commit¬
tee, particularly by Mr. Lentz. Time
and again the two men clashed during
the hearing.
Tho governor detailed a number of
visits from San Francisco, Spokane
and elsewhere, during which he said
he met officials of the various mines.
At a meeting at Spokane he told the
mine owners there would be no modi¬
fication of the permit system. The
mine owners were opposed to this sys¬
tem, and wanted to employ any men
they chose. But the governor said
he informed them that the state of
Idaho would not permit the employ¬
ment of criminals. He had made no
statement as to how long the permit
system would continue, but he said
he intended to enforce it as long as it
seemed to insure order.
Mr. Lentz asked if this meant that
ihe governor would do as he pleased
on the subject, to which the witness
'replied that he would do a»bis judg¬
ment dictated. If the permit system
had resulted in a loss to the miners of
$500,000, as Mr. Lentz stated, the
governor said he did not care for that,
as it was a necessary recourse by the
state.
"Like Louis XIV, you are the
state,” remarked Mr. Lentz.
Mr. Lentz’ allusion to Louis XIV
caused ^prolonged discussion.
A sensational episode occurred at
this point. Representative Lentz as¬
serted that some of the state deputies
were living with disreputable women.
Mr. Cheney, the attorney for the state
of Idaho, interposed a protest and
said;
“I burl back at you that statement.
The deputies are reputable men.”
Mr. Lentz indignantly resented the
interference of private counsel, and
addressing the attorney, said:
"You ought to be kinked out of the
window, and yon would be if you had
not the majority of this committee be¬
hind you.”
When Mr. Lentz attempted to read
from previous testimony concerning
tho improper conduct of deputies,
Chairman Hull overruled this course.
This further nettled Mr. Lentz, anil
addressing Mr. Hull, he exclaimed:
"I want to say in your teeth that if
you are a party to protecting this at¬
torney in a lie, you are a party to it.”
Amid much confusion, Chairman
Hull declared that Mr. Lentz had in¬
sulted the committee and its members
as far as he could and it would have to
stop. Representative Hay, of Vir¬
ginia, arose to say that the attorney
had better not give the lie to him and
Representative Cox, of Tennessee,
said:
"If any man insults me, I’ll hit
him. ”
Mr. Cox said that when the attorney
accused a member of the committee of
falsehood he forfeited his right to ap-
pear.
“If he says that to me,” added Mr.
Cox, “either he or I go out of the
window. ”
Representative Jett, of Illinois, said
that as a means of protecting the com¬
mittee, he would move that the attor¬
ney be expelled from the committee
room. •
Many members were on their feet
trying to secure recognition when Mr.
Jett made his motion. Before taking
action the committee gave Mr. Cheney
an opportunity to be heard. He ex¬
plained that he did not intend to say
that Mr. Lentz had told a falsehood,
but simply to deny the statement that
Idaho deputies lived with disreputable
women. He apologized for any mis¬
apprehension.
Mr. Cox remarked that a man must
either “fight or apologize on such oc¬
casions, and the apology settled it.”
PRESIDENT THANKS GILMORE.
Erstwhile Captive of Filipinos Has a

Lieutenant Commander J. C. Gil¬
more, the naval officer who was held
so long a prisoner by the Filipinos,
was presented by Secretary Long to

Tbe lieutenant related his experience
in captivity and was warmly compli¬
mented by McKinley for gallantry.
Secretary Long said that no ass'gm
menthad been decided upon for Gill-
more, but it is quite certain that he
will be given something to his liking.

VOCABULARY EXHAUSTED
.Ohio Man Is Virtually Challenged
By Hoosier Statesman.
Lively debates covering a wide rangt
of topics, including Porto Rico, the
Philippines and the Boar war, occu¬
pied the time of the house Tuesday
while the army appropriation bill was
under consideration. At the outset
Mr. Talbert, of South Carolina, com¬
plained of the measure’s vast extrava¬
gance and replied to strictures on his
course as to private pension legisla¬
tion. The published interview with
an unnamed Republican representa¬
tive charging that the Porto Rico tarifl
was the result of a bargain for cam¬
paign funds was again brought up by
Mr. Pieroe, of Tennessee.
Mr. Steele wanted to know how the
Porto Rican tariff bill could be used to
raise a campaign fund.
Mr. Pierce replied that he conld not
give the exact steps, but that vast
sums of money had been raised by the
Republican party in 1896 from various
quarters could not be denied. The
ci n ributors in one inslance had even
jogged the memory of the secretary of
the treasury and he had not dared to
resent the insult. (Democratic ap¬
plause. )
Mr. Lentz, of Ohio, a member of
military affairs committee, discussed
the evils of miliiadsm. The expen¬
ditures for the army had grown, he
said, until they now. absorb one-fifth
of the gross expeuditures*of the gov¬
ernment. The machinery of the gov¬
ernment costs the people now $10 per
capita against 50 cents in the days of
Thomas Jefferson. The Monroe doc¬
trine under which seventeen republics
had been built up south of us, was no
longer to be held sacaed. ;
Turning his attention to Philippine
questiens, he produced an array of facts
to show that the soldiers in the Phil¬
ippines had no heart in the war against
the insurgents and desired to return
home. He challenged the president’s
statement that the volunteers had
willingly remained after their terms of
enlistment expired.
He read a letter from Assistant Sec¬
retary of War Meiklejohn, in reply to
a request for the discharge of a soldier,
denying the request and saying the
war department was "flooded” with
such applications. He read a letter
from one of the medical officers serving
in the Philippines enlliug ( atlention to
the frequency with which soldiers
were being incapacitated by self-in¬
flicted wounds anil suggested tho advis¬
ability of boards such as investigate
cases of desertion. He also mentioned
the reports concerning the alarming
frequency of insanity among the sol¬
diers.
Mr. Marsh, of Illinois, replied to
Mr. Lentz. He spoke with great
heat. No vituperous enemy of his
country, ho said, could have uttered
more diabolical sentiments. ’
"Idesire,” he continued, with flush¬
ed face and emphatic gestures, "to-
characterize his speech, from ’begin¬
ning to end, as a disgrace to the Amer¬
ican consress and a violation of all
the decencies of this house, He has
misrepresented his country, misquoted
history and misstated the position of
this side of the bouse.
“He has exhausted his -whole vo¬
cabulary in unjust and false accusa¬
tions against his country. And I
make these statements,” said he, look¬
ing at Mr. Lentz, "upon my responsi¬
bility as a member here and as a gen¬
tleman outside of this house. One of
tho beautiful things about the consti¬
tution,” he went on sarcastically, "is
that no man can be puuislied under
the law for words spoken in debate
here. So the gentleman from Ohio
goes scot free, notwithstanding the
false charges ho has made.”
Mr. Lentz interposed at this point
to challenge Mr. Marsh to show the
falsity of the official documents from
which he had quoted.
Mr. Marsh replied that he had gone
as far as he could in his characteriza¬
tion of Mr. Lentz’s remarks. If ho
bad any language at his command
more emphatic, he would have used
it. Continuing, he denounced the
course ox the Democratic party which,
he said, in time of peace, was “hell
for war,” and in time of war, "was
hell for peace.” He maintained that
our title to the Philippines was as
complete as our title to Florida, and
it was as much our duty to suppress
rebellion there as in Florida.
The general debate was then closed
and the clerk began to read the bill
for amendment under the five minute
rule.

_
The scientific world is now interest¬
ed in the experiments and discoveries
of < Prof. Metschntkoll. the world's
greatest bacteriologist. The modest
statements which he has given out
lead to the belief that he is on the way
to solve the problem of prolonging hu¬
man life. For ages physicians and
philosophers have contended that the
age of man should be greater than
three score years and ten. According
to the law of Floureus, warm blood
animals live just live timeB the period
necessary for their long bones to com¬
plete ossification. This period applied
to man makes his age limit 100 years,
which is believed to be correct, unless
accident occurs to prevent it
The statements and theories of Prof.
Metschnikoff are not based on idle
dreams, hopes or prophecies, but upon
years of careful experimenting which
has rendered discoveries that are ac¬
cepted by the scientific world and has
placed the discoverer in the front rank

PROFESSOR METSCHNIKOFF.
of scientists. He has proven that all
life forms are groupings of simple
cells, and that each class of cells per¬
forms a distinct office. He discovered
that the office of certain of these ceils
was to devour other cells-that threat¬
ened the health of the human organ¬
ism. They are the "policemen” of the
body. Every day people inhale thous¬
ands of disease germs hut if the blood
is in healthy condition, the devouring
cells or 'policemen of the body” pounce
upon and destroy them. This is why
many people go through a period of
epidemic of pestilence unaffected,
wbilq others suffer lingering illness
aq.d often death, Carrying his re-
searches farther, the professor found
that the stronger cells of the body
preyed upon the weaker ones, thereby
causing an inharmonious action of the
organs. This produces a gradual de¬
cline in the organs and faculties, what
is called “old age” becomes manifest,
and death soon follows. The professor
concluded that if tho weaker cells
could be invigorated and strengthened,
so as to repel the attacks of the strong¬
er cells or not to get into condition to
Invite attack, that harmony in the
workings of the human organs would
be maintained qnd that life and vigor
would be greatly prolonged. With this
end in view he began a series of ex¬
periments by transposing the blood of
rabbits and guinea pigs, and he found
that he could regulate the number and
the vitality of the different kinds of
cells that made up the blood which in
turn creates the body.
The serum which Prof. Metschnikoff
has evolved, and will more perfectly
evolve, from his experiments and dis¬
coveries will be Injected into the sys¬
tems of human beings who begin to
show the effects of the ravages of time.
This serum will strengthen the failing
cells and the life and vigor of the hu¬
man body will be renewed. To what
length these renewals can be carried,
and how long the functions of the hu¬
man body can be kept working in har¬
mony is a matter of conjecture, and a
question that the professor does not
discuss in any respect. He makes no
pretensions of having discovered the
secret of continual youth, and is work¬
ing only to aid in the discovery of a
means to prolong human life to the
extent which its creator seems to have
intended, and to make it as free from
disease and pain as possible while it
continues.
From a scientific point of view the
long lives of the patriarchs of the hu¬
man family are seriously believed to
have been incorrectly calculated ac¬
cording to our standard of reckoning
years. Methuselah might have lived
969 years as the time in those days
was reckoned, but scientists cannot be¬
lieve that a year then was as long in
duration as it is now. In more recent
times—since the beginning of the
Christian era—there are numerous in¬
stances of long lives. In the begin¬
ning of the 17th century, Gotour Mc-
Craim celebrated 180 Christmases at
his home on the island of Jara, in the
Hebrides. In 1014. Johannes de Tempo-
ritus died at the age of 361. In 1620
the Countess of Desmond died in Eng¬
land at the age of 146. Her death
was caused by falling from a cherry
tree which she had climbed, and which
shows that she must still have teen
very active. Thomas Parr died near
•Shrewsbury, England, in the early part
of the 17th century in his 153d year,
and was not married until he was 80
years old. It is said that he ate whole¬
some food regularly, and was a great
Bleeper. Henry Jenkins, of Yorkshire.
England, completed his 169th year. He
had always been a hard working man
and hardly knew what sickness was.
Thera are a few others who livod ba-
yonrt 125 years and hundreds have
passed the century mark.
The tables of the great life insurance
companies of the present day prove
conclusively that the span of human
life is lengthening. A person can in¬
sure his life today on terms far mc,*e
reasonable than his father could have
secured. In the middle of the present
century the average of life was a little
more than 32 years; now it is fully 38
years. Then the average death rate
was 26 for every 1,000 inhabitants; now
it is 21. The statistics of all civilized
countries in which medicine 1 b pur¬
sued as a science and in which hygiene
has been promoted show this general
prolongation of human life.

Although many men and women of
celebrity have been unfdVtimate in af¬
fairs of the heart, the great majority
had different stories to tell. Many wo¬
men deserve, but few women receive,
such an I. O. U. as that which Hood
gave his wife. “I never was anything,
dearest, until I knew you, and I have
been a better, happier and more pros¬
perous man ever since. Lay the truth
in lavender, sweetest, and remind me
of it when I fail.” General Gordon
said he never married because he nev¬
er found a woman prepared to accom¬
pany him to the ends of the earth.
Such a woman Sir Henry Lawrence did
find. She went with him into nearly
every place in India where his work
brought him, however dangerous or
difficult. On August 22, 1620, Oliver
Cromwell married Elizabeth Boucher,
daughter of a knight and wealthy Lon¬
don merchant. Mrs. Cromwell may
not have had much character, but her
husband never ceased to love her, and
thirty years after their marriage
he wrote to her (the day after Dun¬
bar) : ‘‘Truly, if I love you not too well,
I think 1 err not on the other hand too
much. Thou art dearer to me than
any creature; let that suffice.” For
forty-three years the great lawyer and
agitator, Daniel O'Connell, poured out
his heart to his wife like a schoolboy
in love for the first time. His first
thoughts were always of her; and nei¬
ther the lapse of years nor the tre¬
mendous pressure of his professional
and political engagements seems ever
to have prevented his writing regular¬
ly to her—letters which in later years
he used to call the 'love letters of your
old husband.” It is pleasant to find
harmony in the house of a great musi¬
cal composer as well as in his composi¬
tions. There was no discordant note
in the matrimonial duet which Mozart
and his wife played together. For
years she was an invalid, and he U3ed
to write by her bedside while she slept.
When he went out in the morning for
a ride he would steal softly into her
room and leave a tender note to greet
her waking. Here is one of them; "I
wish you good morning, my dear little
wife. I hope you have slept well, and
that nothing has disturbed your re¬
pose. Be careful not to take cold, not
to rise too quickly, not to stoop, not to
reach for anything, not to be angry
with the servant. Take care also not
to fall upon the threshold in passing
from one room to another. Keep ail
domestic troubles till I come, which
will be soon.”
PATON’S EXPERIENCES.
Few ministers of the gospel have fig¬
ured in circumstances of greater peril
than has Dr. Paton, and some of his
exploits and adventures are as thril-
Singly interesting as anything which
can be found in the world’s romance.
Dr. Paton is now spending several
weeks in the United States, where he
is raising money with which to prose-.
cute his work in the New Hebrides.
Recently he passed through Atlanta,
where he delivered addresses which
are pleasantly remembered by those
who were fortunate enough to hear
him. Dr. Paton first went to the New
Hebrides in 1S48. On account of his
influence over the cannibals in that
quarter he acquired in time the compli¬
mentary designation of king, and to¬
day the New Hebrides are completely
under the domination of the gospel.
Dr. Paton is now seventy-two years of

How a Little BoyWas Saved.
Washington, D. C.—"When our boy
was about 16 months old he broke out
with & rash which was thought to be
measles. In a few days he had a
swelling on the left side of his neck
anil it was decided to be mumps. He
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said it was scrofula and ordered a
salve. He wanted to lauce the sore,
but I would not let him and contfhneil
giving him medicine for about four
months when the bunch broke in two
places and became a running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofula and
each ordered a blood medicine. A
neighbor told me of a case somewhat
like our baby’s which was cured by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I decided to give
it to my boy and in a short while hia
health improved and his neck healed
so nicely that I stopped giving him the
medicine. The sore broke out again,
however, whereupon I again gave him
Hood’s Sarsaparilla aud its persistent
use has accomplished a complete
cure.” Mrs. Nettis Chase, 47 K

it was a few years ago that they told

They tell me now not to do it, because
it will give me cancer of the stomach.
Then they said that tomatoes were not
fit for food. Now they tell me to cat
lots of them, as it is natural calomel.
That’s the way it goes. They tell yon
to stuff yourself with one tiling and
then throw the switch on it.”
