if guilty, would ba quite certain to add
the offense of false swearing.
‘‘The charge that the accusations and
the exposure resumed from a conspiracy
forrn-d and carried forward by Mr. Mar
cus Daly was a necessity of Mr. Clark’s
canvass and defence. But Mr. Da y and
M' Conrad and others suspected denied
all knowledge of the S»VUO. of which

cesses in procuring, by corrupt practice,
the vot«s of members of the legislature,
whe-e the facts naturally cannot directly
lie proved.”
The rep »rt censures republican members
of the Montana legislature who est their
republican candidate and voted for Clark,
giving him his election. The report says:
"It is difficult to account for their vot, *

OPIUM. COCAINE AND WHISKY.
Seme Remarkable Cures of These
Habits in Dr. Woolley’s
Sanitarium.
Among th- -tid-nc-s of Atlanta’s cos
mopolitanism and on- worthy of note on
account of its humanitarian feature. Is
the erection of a sanitarium for the spe
cial treatment of sufferers from opluin.
cocaine and whi-kv habits. Atlanta has
become a center of great medical col
lege:-, hospitals and Institutions for the
proper treatment ami nursing of the dis
eased. and thousands now Journey to At
lanta to lie treated by great practitioners
and specialists as they have been doing
to Philadelphia, New York and Paris. It
Is v< a • redttal to Dr. B. M. Woolley
that he detertnined to Im rease h's list ful
ness to th- afflicted by establishing a
sanltarlvm for those afflicted with drug
habits, where by personal attention, care
ful nursing and the comforts of a home
he could shorten the time of curing to a
few weeks. There are persons, too, so
(■'institut'd that they respond much more
n adllv to treatmet/t under the Immediate
eye of the physician, especially where
there tire complications, which is often
the case.
Dr. Woolley's work Is. of course, famil
iar to th- readers of The Constitution,
for we have been comm-nding both and
reporting bls r,markable cures In this
and other countri ■* for twenty years past.
Hom- of these cases were so apparently
hop-loss that Dr Woolley’s so,css with
I them proved bev-nd question hi* ability
; to cur- persons ia • xtr -rm condition. <if
I this fact we have a r. cent demonstration
I and its The Con »'t tfon has been the
means of saving many from misery mid
despair bv directing their attention to Dr.
Woolley, it may be Well tq,m-ntion a few

death of her sister. Miss Ltura Haygood,
in Shanghai, t’hina, where for a number
of years she had lived ns a mission try.
The news of Mis* Laura Haygood's
death will he learned with widespread
sorrow by hundreds of devoted friends
In this city, as will as throughout the
entire south, who have anxiously awaited

labors that she had devoted her life to.
Some months ago her condition rapidly
grew worse and since that time her death
has been expected, although everything
possible was done to prolong her life.
Miss Laura Haygood was a remarkable
woman. Possessed of a strong religious
faith and decided convictions, she was I
attracted to the missionary Held .nil de

noble work of uplifting and bettering
the condition of the women of t'hln.i.

sphere of usefulness among the Ignorant
women of China would be greatly en- [
larged and asked that she bo allowed to
go. She was made a missionary by the
Methodist Episcopal church south and
since that time had devoted herself to
field work In China, being stationed at
Shanghai.

Suffering Women
Do you want to be
cured? If so, remem
ber that Dr. Tucker
has had 25 years' ex
perience in treating
such cases as yours.
He lias in that time
.'tired thousands, many
of whom had given
up in despair. He
cured them by home
treatment and at a
very small cost. If
vou suffer with mis
placement, irregulari-
ty bearing down pains, pain.* In lower
bowels, back and hips, cold feet, smoth
ering sensation, palpitation of the heart,
pains in chest, shortness of breath, bloat
ing about the body, especially face and
lower extremities, dizziness In head, choK
ing sensation, sleeplessness, nervous fears.
Indigestion and constipation, you should
lose no time In having expert treatment.
Write Dr. Tucker at once. He will tell
you honestly what can be done for you.
He will not take your money for nothing.
Now, don't give up. but make another
effort. If you give Dr. Tucker a trial it
will not be in vain. Advice perfectly free.
