TO BE PUBLISHED AT ONCE.
They Were All Suppressed Many Years
Ago—The Great General Had Some
Very Contemptible Traits—His
Hatred of Mme. De Stael.
Paris, July 2.—M. Leon Lecestre, cu-
rator of the French archives, will issue
during the present week the first vol—
ume of 300 letters which were suppress-
ed by the editors of Napoleon’s corre—
spondence, issued in 1869, as not calcu-
lated to increase the glory of the great
French emperor. The volume includes
some heated family letters and some
rigorously worded epistles to Fouche
1nd Dubois, the ministers of police and
war. A letter to Marshal Soult in 1804
shows that Napoleon did not hesitate
in adopting any means of obtaining
gonfessions. He orders Soult to arrest
a. fisherman suspected of communicat-
ing with the British, adding:
“If he refuses to speak, you must
squeeze his thumbs in a musket lock.”
This was a method adopted to ex-
tract confessions in the cases of per—
sons suspected of espionage.
Napoleon’s list of persons to be ar—
rested was endless, and his abuse of
Mme. de Stael was unceasing.
Learning, in 1807, through Marshal
Victor that Prince Augustus of Prussia
was intriguing against him in Berlin,
Napoleon wrote:
"I am not astonished, because he has
a dull mind and has spent his time
courting Mme. de Stael at Coppet,
Switzerland, and of course could only
pick up bad habits with her. Send
word to him that at the first mischiev-
ous remark he utters you will lock him
up in his castle and send Mme. de
Stael to console him. There are no
men so cringing as these princes of
Prussia."
A Note to Talleyrand.
Writing to Talleyrand in 1808 that
princes of the former reigning family
of Spain were about to arrive at Valen-
ay, Napoleon added:
“You may send for Mme. Talleyrand
and four or five persons. If the Prince
of Asturias should form an attach-
ment for a pretty person, it will be no
drawback, as it would supply another
means of watching him.”
Another letter from Napoleon to Tal-
leyrand reads:
“Your mission is honorable enough—
to receive three illustrious personages
and amuse them—~and is quite in keep—
ing with yopr character.”
When 4. ' j leon received the news,
June 11, 18 ,?'?that the pope had excom-
municatedn‘him, he wrote:
“I spare the pope no longer. He is a
raving madman and must be locked
up."
Sensible Advice to Jerome.
Some scolding letters to his brother,
Prince Jerome. are interesting. When
Jerome was outwitted by the Austrian
General Kienmayer, he still boasted of
his strategic plans in an inflated order
of the day; This caused Napoleon to
write as follows:
"I have seen your order of the day,
which makes you the laughing stock of
Austria, Germany and France. Haven’t
you a. friend about to tell you a. few
plain truths? You, a king and a brother
of the emperor! These are ridiculous
titles. In time of war you must be a
soldier and nothing but a soldier.
must have no minister, no diplomatic
corps, no state. You must camp with
the vanguard, be day and night on
horseback and march in the van to pick
up news. You make war like a. satrap.
Is it from me, good God, that you learn-
ed that? I, who, with an army of 200,000
men, keep at the head of my skirmish-
ers?
“The people are provoked with you.
Kienmayer, with 12,000 men, has laugh—
ed at you and your ridiculous preten-
sions and has slipped away from you
and fallen upon Junot. You have a lot
of pretensions, some little mind and a
few good qualities, but these are mar—
red by your fatuity and your extreme
presumption. You have no knowledge
of the fitness of things. Leave off be-
ing ridiculous, send your diplomatic
corps back to Cassel, have no baggage
and wage war like a young soldier wish—
ing to earn glory and reputation. Try
to deserve the rank you have reached
and the esteem of France and Europe,
who are watching you, and, by God, do
right and speak in a. seemly manner if
you can."
Mr. Calhoun to Decline.
Danville, Ills., July 2.—Colonel W. J.
Calhoun, after consulting with his fam-
ily and business associates, has decid-
ed to decline the position of comptrol-
ler of the treasury. He expresses grat-
itude to the president for considering
his name, but says that he could not,
in justice to himself, sacrifice his law
practice for a. temporary government
position which "would hardly pay liv-
ing expenses in Washington.”
Paper Dealers In Trouble.
Philadelphia, July 2.—Judgments
amounting to nearly $30,000 have been
entered against Albert de Cernea. &
C0., wholesale dealers in paper. Exe-
cutions were issued on the confessed
judgments, the sheriff taking possession
of the property. Counsel for the firm
states that the confessed judgments are
for borrowed money.
Killed by Truck Over-turning.
New York, July 2.—-—Peter Reilly, a
truck driver, was instantly killed to-
day. He was driving on One Hundred
and Ninety-second street, between
Eleventh avenue and Kingsbridge road,
with a. large stone loaded on his truck.
The truck was overturned and Reilly
was crushed beneath the stone.
Coach Lehmann Sails For Home.
New York. July 2.—Rudolph C. Leh-
mann, the Harvard coach, sailed today
for Europe on the Normannia. Mr.
Lehmann remained aboard the vessel
overnight and declined to say any-
thing as to his reported intention of re—
turning here next season to coach the
Harvard crew.
Justine Holbrook Reappolnted.
New York, July 2.—Justice W. C. Hol-
brook of the court of special sessions,
whose term expired today, was reap-
pointed by Mayor Strong for a term. of
ten years. The announcement was
made from the bench by Justice Hayes.

That is the l-Way NorwaIK
Speaks, and That is the
Way Norwalk Peo-
ple Act.
At first there was doubt. That was
but natural, for people had been disap-
pomted many times. But first a man
in Norwalk spoke, then a woman in
South Norwalk, and soon from all over
both places arose the chorus of praises
for C. C. C., California Catarrh Cure.
And now people buy and use it in per-
fect confidence that it will do what it
claims; that it will cure every form,
every trace of catarrh. Read what
Mrs. I. F. Williamson, 24 Springr street,
South Nor-walk, says: “I got a. bottle
of California Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s
drug store, for my daughter Kitty, who
has been troubled quite badly with ca—
tarrh, and she finds that it has helped
her very much. My sister has also
used the medicine with most satisfac-
tory results and joins me in saying that
it is a fine medicine.”
Catarrh in its fully developed forms
isahideous disease, involving decay,
filth and actual rottenness, with most
offensive odors in the very seat of the
organs of taste and smell: firmly fixed
there, it begins to attack the membrane
lining of the passages leading to the
lungs or the stomach; resulting either
in consumption, or what is often called
dyspepsia. It is really catarrh of the
stomach, intestines, liver, kidneys and
various internal passages. California
Catarrh Cure will cure all forms of ca-
tarrh, and will check even incipient
consumption. All dealers, 50 cents,
three times as much, $1.
To avoid hay fever, begin to use C.
C. C. now; used properly. it will entire-
ly prevent the malady in its season.
Master Thomas Havey has left Nor.-
walk with his aunt, Miss Mary Havey
of Jewitt City, to visit his grandparents

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the deseased portion of the ear,
There is only one way to cure Derfness.
and that is by constitutional remedies-
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Bus-
tachian Tube. When this tube get infl-
amed you have a rumbling sound or im-
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result. and unless
the inflammatiou can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing Will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by ca-
tarrh which is nothihg but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

STREET RAILWAY COMBINATION. I
Right of View For Over :oo Mill on 1:: Cook
County, 1115., Granted.
Chicégo, July 2.—An ordinance em-
powering the Mctropclitan Traction
company to build more than 200 miles
of street railroads in Cook county has
been passed by the county board. The
roads over which the franchise extends
cover every point in Cook county out-
side cf the City of Chicago where it is
now or is very likely to become desira—
ble to build a street railway line. It is
said the way has thus b" paved for
a great combination of thbstreet rail-
ways of Chicago with every suburban
line now in existence and others to be
built by the new company. '
One project to be carried into effect
by the company will be the carrying of
freight from every town and village in
the county to the limits of the city after
6 p. m., where it will be brought over
the city lines in the big combination.
In this way nearly every farmhouse will
be brought within easy means of trans-
portation.
The new company is capitalized for
$10,000,000, and among its rumored back-
ers are mentioned J. Pierpont Morgan,
P. A. B. lVidener, W. L. Elkins and
Charles T. Yerkes, together with the
men backing the General Electric com-
pany. No money compensation to the
county treasury is provided for by the
ordinance.
