GOOD FOR EVERYBODY
and everyone needs it at all times of the

only preventive and relief is to keep the

Mr. C. Himrod, of Lancaster, Ohio,
says: “SIMMONS LIVER REGULATOR
broke a case of Malarial Fever of three
years’ standing for me, and less than
one bottle did the business. 1 shall use
it when in need, and recommend it.”

DUBIGNON FORSOUND MONEY.
An Eloquent Address Before
the Legislature.
Hon. Fleming G. duBiguou, of
Savannah, who is iu the race with
ex-Speaker. Crisp and Secretary
H(.ke Smith for the United States
Stnate, addressed the Legislature
last 'Tuesday night. His speech was
chiefly on the financial question,
which was the leading topic In ibe
addresses delivered by Judge Crisp
and Secretary Smith before ttie Gen
eral Assembly. Mr. dnB'gnon, who
is ex-President of the Senate, is a
wonderfully eloquent speaker. He
had a large audience Tuesday night.<
He spoke for more than an hour,
arguing against the free, unlimited
and independent coinage of silver
by this country at sixteen to one, or
any other arbitrary ratio. This
country he said, could not maintain
gold and silver at a parity with the
free coinage of silver, and gold would
be diiven out and the United States
would be on a silver basis. The plat
foiui of the Democratic party, said
he, has always, in demanding the
use of both metals, insisted upon
preserving a parity between them.
He favore a double standard,but did
not believe it could be obtained by
independent action. He firmly be
lieved that in the near future other
nations would declare for a double
staudard. He said that any one who
advocated cheap rnouey for the peo*
pie was the worst possible enemy
the people could have; that no por
tion of tlie people was so vitally in
terested in a sound and stable cur
rency as the masses of the people,
and that the sufferers from a depre
ciated currency would not be the
capitalists but the working people.
Tlie trouble is not with the per
capita, he said, but witli the distri
bution of the money in actual circu
lation. It is largely in the hands of
the few very ricti, and if tlie volume
of money was doubled th* very rich
would get tlie most of it. He pro
posed to give several reasons why he
was opposed to free coinageof silver.
He said it would revolutionize the
standard of all values because it
would make America the public
dumping ground of all tlie silver in
tbe world, because the country’s
surplus products would be excluded
from a foreign market. The speaker
declared in favor of the restricted
coinage of silver, leaving the amount
to be coined to the discretion of the
Secretary of the Treasury, who would
stop the coinage when the silve r
ceased to be absorbed bv commeice.
Mr. dubiguon advocated the repeal
of the 10 per cent tax ou State
banks.

“The most distressing problem of
my life,” says a well-known minister,
“is being called upon to give advice

A majority of the m«mbers of the
House, according to a newspaper

but as the paper didn’t get Tom
Reed’s ideas that signifies nothing.
It is what Mr. Reed wants that will
go in the House, and not what tbe
majority wants.
Rain is an accumulation of the
tiny particles of the vapor of the at
mosphere into drops. These drops,
first small of size, attract others of
their kiud and become drops of such
magnitude that they fall to the earth
because of their weight. There is a
limit to the quantity of water which
tlie air is capable of absorbing and
retaining as inyisible vapor Warm
air is able to hold more than cold air.
Hence, when the air which is satu
rated with moisture, becomes cold
for any reason whatever, it can no
longer retain its moisture. A por
tion must, under such conditions, ac
cumulate into' drops. These fall to
the earth in the shape of rain.
The senate, in passing tbe appros
priation of $25,000 to the Girls’ Nor
mal and Industrial college, put a
rider upon it, giving $5,000 to the
Technological school to equip an elec-
trioul department, and $7,000 to
build a dormitory at the Slate Nor
mal school of Atheus, both of which
propositions had been defeated in
the house earlier in tlie session. The
house was set in favor of the appro
priation for tbe Mtibdgeville school,
and, to meet the senate half way,
after a sharp debate, agreed to the
amendment giving the State Normal
school the $7,000 to build the dormi
tory, but rejected the $5,000 to the
Technological school.
“The successful ’man,” said Mr.
Gratebar, “is by no means helpful to
himself alone. He helps a great lot
of oi her people as well. There isn’t
a healthy, vigorous, energetic, self-
reliant, successful man whose exam
ple does not breed the same qualities
iu others, and personal contact with
such a man is an active stimulant
and direct aid to success. He awakens
in us new strength and arouses am
bition. He winds us up and sets us
going. See to it, my friend, that you
don't ruu down.”

ry Hayward was banged at 2:10 a. m.
(Wednesday.) He made a statement
of flye minutes’ duration, aud, while
not making a confession, said be
hoped God would forgive him for all
the harm tie had ever done.
The murderer went to the gallows
with a laugh on his lips and went
down tbe trap just as he utteied the
words lightly:
“Let her go, AlegardeD.”
The command was directed to the
chief deputy. Prior to tbe execution
tbe condemned man inaiutaioed the
nerve which has made him famous.
H#took his last supper shortly after
1 o'clock aud was surrounded by tbe
deputies and the death watches.—
Just before the death warrant was
read Hayward turned to his brother,
Dr. Tliaddeus Hayward, and said:
‘ You know I am a great believer
in spiritualism. If I get safely on
the other side I will send a message
to you.” .
At 2 o’clock Harry listened to tbe
reading of the warrant. Soon after
Sheriff Holmberger enteted and the
condemned said earnestly:
. “I want to ask of you a last favor.
Please let me pull the trap. It will
save you life-long anxiety and will | volumes, and weighs 1,625 pounds,

The sheriff replied :
‘•I cannot do it, Harry. I know
my duty.”
On tbe scaffold Harry made an ex
tended statement. He said that, to
please tlie several pastors who bad
called upon him, he would say: “God
forgive me for what I have done.”
This is looked upon as a confes
sion. The trap fell at 2:10, and the
wouderful vitality of the man was
shown by the fact that he lived for
several moments after the trap fell.
