A DEAD SHOT
right at the seat of difficulty, is accom-
%hshed by the sure and steady aim of
r. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. Don’t
fool around with a pop—gun, nor a
“Flint-lock,” when-this reliable “Win-
chester ” is within reach!
Dr. Sage’s treatment of Catarrh in the
Head is far superior to the ordinary, and
when directions are reasonably well
‘followed, results in a permanent cure.
Don’t longer be indifferent to the veri-
fied claims of this unfailing Remedy.
The worst forms of Catarrh disap-
ear with the use of Dr. SageZs Catarrh
emedy. Its mild, soothing,zcleansing
and healing properties effect a perfect
and permanent cure, no matter how bad
the case, or of how long standing. It’s
a remedy that succeeds where every-
thing else has failed. Thousands of
such cases can be pointed out. That’s
the reason its makers back their faith in
it with money. They. Offer $500 reward
for a case of Catarrh which they can-
not cure.
It’s a medicinethat allows them to
take such a risk. -
Doesn’t common sense lead you to
take such a medicine?
“An advertisin fake” you say.
Funny, isn’t it, ow some people pre-
fer sickness to health when the remedy
is positive and the guarantee absolute.
Wise men don’t put money back of
“fakes.” And “faking” doesn’t pay.

IT 1.011118 1.1T FASSDTT
New York Republicans Likely to
Nominate Him for Governor.
A SURPRISE PARTY, HE SAYS
The Newly Appointed f‘ollector Says 80
Is Ignorant of the Origin, Progress
and Condition of His Boom.
Gibbs on the Situation.
ROCHESTER, Sept. 9.—Everything is in
readiness for the Republican state conven-
tion, which opens here Wednesday, and
all the indications point to a. short and
harmonious sesaion,and a sweeping vic-
tory for Collector J. Sloat Fassett as nomn
inee for governor. There is talk of noth-
ing else but Fassctt. It seems to be the
prevailing opinion that Fassctt is the com-
ing man, and one might as well try to
change the course of the tide as to stem
the tide of popular sentiment for New
York’s collector of the port. Mr. Platt
said, however, to all inquiries, that he had
not changed his opinion regarding the
availability of ex—Minister Andrew D.
White as a. candidate for the gubernatorial
nomination. . ‘
Mr. Fassett arrived at Powers hotel, ac-
companied by Judge Robertson, of Ka—
tonah, General-Husted and President Mc-
Alpin, of the State Republican league.
Robertson and Husted have always been
counted as'Miller men. N ow they are for
Fassett. Mr. Fassett, in conversation
with a correspondent, professed ignorance
as to, the origin, progress and present con-
dition of his boom. He said the springing
of his name on the delegates was a. sur-
prise to him. Further than that he would
express no opinion as to the outlook.
Ear-Senator Gibbs’ Views.
Ex-Senator Gibbs, whose opposition to
the leadership of Thomas C. Plath has
made him one of the best known Repub-
licans in the state, was approached by a
reporter on his arrival at the Powers hotel.
“I am for Fassett,” he said, “because he is
a. good man and can be elected.” And
then some one asked why it was that all
of Mr. Platt’s old time political enemies
were for Fassett. Mr. Gibbs replied: “The
party is united and determined to win.
Mr. Platt is unquestionably the leader of
his party. I say that from experience. I
think Mr. Platt’s only object is to secure
the nomination of a ticket that will suc-
ceed at the polls.
“I think that this week’s convention
will be one of the most harmonious in the
history of the Republican party Of the
state. There are some Republicans who
have been lukewarm in the past who
might fear, if an anti-Flatt man were
nominated, that he would be traded for
the legislature. With a man like Fassett
at the head of the ticket there would be
no chance for such a suspicion, which
’ would be groundless in any case.”
“What can you say as to the composition
of the rest of the ticket?” asked the re«
porter. .
“I resume that Becker and Wadsworth
will be offered the lieutenant governorship
first, and if they decline Mr. McAlpin or
General Carr will be given it. John W.
Vrooman, of Herkimer, will probably be
nominated for secretary of state. Edwin
Einstein, of New York, will be nominated
for comptroller. William A. Sutherland,
of Rochester, has the call on the attorney
generalship.”
As to the Platform.
“What about high license in the plat-
form?”
“I don’t think the question should be
alluded to.” _ , , , _,, , .
“What else nvillathe platformi say?” =
:-"af'§“Honesfi In’ouey" will be favored. ‘ The
administration will be unstintedly in-
dorsed. Blaine and his reciprocity scheme
will be commended. The protective tarifli
will be supported of course.”
“What will the platform say about the
electrocution law and the gag feature?” ‘ ,
“I do not think the subject is of enough
importance to deserve mention in the
platform, but' if I, go toizthe? legislature
next season I Will heartily support a re-
peal ofthe, clause which provides for se-
crecy,” '1? '
"“Is Fassett the man 1’” asked a reporter
of ex-Marshal Lewis F. Payn, of Columbia
county.
“I wouldn’t be surprised,” he said.
“That’s what the boys say; but then there
are other good candidates,” he added,
with a smile. '
Would Sweep All Before Them.
A prominent Buflalonian said: “It does
not look as if Becker can .be nominated, but
we are comirg down 600 strong to shout
for him. He may take second place, and‘ I
understand he can have it if he wants it.
If Becker is not nominated We are for the
nominee. We will work hard for the
ticket, and there will be no bad blood. It
looks like Fassett, and Fassett and Becker
would sweep all before them.”
The state committee met Tuesday night
at the Powers House. General Knapp,
chairman of the committee, will call the
convention to order, and William W.
Goodrich, of Brooklyn, will be made tem— '
porary chairman.
Cleveland Delegates Elected.
LOCKPORT, N. Y., Sept. 9,—The Demo
cratic First assembly district convention
was held here to elect delegates to the
state convention. The strife was between
the Cleveland and Hill factions. The lat-
ter were routed and the Cleveland dole
gates elected by a vote of 19 to 12. There
were a number of ludicrous, and wild
scenes. The convention adjourned to Oct.
10, when a. member of assembly will be
nominated. '
Bay State Peoples‘ Party Ticket.
BOSTON, Sept. 9.—The Peoples’ party has
nominated the following state ticket: For
governor, Henry Winn, of Malden; lieu-
tenant governor, William J. Shields, of
Boston; secretary of state, Joseph D.
Cadle, of Westfield; treasurer and receiver
general, Thomas A. Watson, of Braintree;
auditor, William O. Wakefield, of Lynn;
attorney general, Israel W. Andrews, of
Danvers.
Lieutenant Governor Jones in Conference.
ALBANY, Sept. 9.—Licutenant Governor
Jones was closeted with a number of rap
resentatives of farmers’ organizations in
this city last night and a long conference
was held. It was not learned definitely
what was discussed, but the general opin-
ion is that Mr. Jones is quietly paving the
way to an independent nomination, what-
ever may have been said to the contrary.
W. L. Scott Slightly Improved.
NEWPORT, R. 1., Sept. 9.—Ex-Congress—
man Scott, of Pennsylvania, is no worse
than when brought here, and, in fact, his
physicians see a slight improvement.

Widespread Distress in the Empire
and the Worst ls re. to Come.
MANY DEMANDS FOB RELIEF
they Are Flowing in Upon the Author-
ities from All Quarters—The Obsta-
cles the Czar Encountered in ‘
Negotiating His Big Loan.
LONDON, Sept. 9,—The correspondent of
The Standard at Moscow, commenting on
the demands that come from all points for
measures to relieve distress, says it is plain
that the distress is greater and more wide-
spread than was at first supposed, and that
the worst is yet to come.
The correspondent of The Times at Paris,
discussing the Russian situation, says:
”After the Rothschilds’ refusal of a. loan to
Russia it was found that it would require
£12,000,000 to relieve the distress in Rus-
sia, while the poverty of the people would
cause a large reduction'in the customs re-
ceipts from the sale of alcohol, and the
expenses of increasing her armament
would bring the aggregate deficit up to
£35,000,000 or to 2,640,000,000. _ ~ ‘
“Russia. eagerly seized the Cronstadt en-
t-ente to make a fresh but futile applica-
tion to the Rothschilds, who represented
the difficulty France would be in having
to pay £30,000,000 to £40,000,000 in gold for
American wheat. Then Other bankers
were approached, and they agreed to ad-
vance a loan to Russia at the same price
as was ofifercd to the Rothschilds, namely,
about 82. This loan cannot be negotiated
before October. It wil be issued at 84 or
84%, and will be abso'r ed by petty in-
vestors. as large houses, especially Jewish,
dislike Russian issues.”
The Czar “’on't Meet William.
BERLIN, Sept. 9.——An official dispatch
has been received from Copenhagen which
makes the announcement that the czar,
who is now there, will be unable to visit
the German kaiser before his return to
Russia, as had been projected. This news
is considered as confirmatory of the exist-
ence of an entente between Russia and
France of such a'character as would ren-
der difficult an interview between the two
monarchs.
It Would. Be a. Cams Belll. .
VIENNA, Sept. 9.—The report that the
sultan intends to cede old Sci-via to Rus-
sia in discharge of the war indemnity is
not credited in Vienna, but there is no
hesitation in declaring that such action
would be regarded by Austria as a casus
belli.
To Send China. an oUltimatum.
PARIS, Sept. 9.—The Gaulois proposes
that the French government, acting in
concert with the governments of other
powers interested, shall send an ultimatum
to China in regard to the recent outrages
upon foreigners in that country.
A Whole Family Suicides.
PARIS, Sept. 9.—A family of this city,
consisting of six members, committed sui-
cide yesterday. The father and mother
first hanged themselves, and the others,
who were adult children, imitated their
parents.
The Franco-Russo Union.
PARIS, Sept. 9.———During the fete in his
honor at Lourdes, M. Mohrenheim, the
Russian embassador, said he was only
promoting the czar’s wishes for an inti-
mate union between Russia and France.
. ,. He .Bouted. the'Whlt'e Caps. .
i ‘ CkAWW'LLE‘,“ Ills.,"'Séipt. 9."-——A ci-Ow'd‘ Cf
fifty White Caps on horseback visited the
residence of F. A. Morgan, a prominent
churchmen and one of the wealthiest and
most influential citizens of Washington
county. When they called for him he
opened fire upon the crowd with a Win-
,chester rifle,'and it became panic stricken
and'fled in disorder. Later, two strangers
arrived in town, and meeting John Te~
beau, another prominent churchmen, beat
him in a. horrible manner. They then
sprang into a buggy and drove out of
town. The trouble grows out of a bitter
war which is being waged between' the
temperance and antitemperance factions
here, and the church people believe that
the strangers were hired to assault prom‘
inent church members.
Killed While Resisting Arrest.
COLUMBUS, 0., Sept. 9.—Henry Webster,
a negro of bad repute, was shot and killed
while resisting arrest. He was drunk and
threatened to kill Officer George Feist,
who was going to arrest him. The officer
continued after him, and the negro shot
back twice, but neither ball took effect.
As the negro dodged behinda. telegraph
pole, Officer Feist took careful aim and
sent a. bullet through his body, killing him
, instantly. The negroes are vere indignant,
and talk of holding a. meeting tonight to
take action against the officer.
Perrlen Sues His Kldnapers.
DETROIT, Sept. 9.—‘A civil suit has been
begun against the Considine gang of kid-
napers by Joseph Perrien, laying damages
at $100,000. Judge Garner indorsed $5,000
bail for each of the four named in the case—
William Considine, John Considine, Frank
Griffiths and Ed Kent. Frank Parris, the
leading witness in the case, who was
caught in St. Louis, fled from here be
cause the Considine gang threatened his
life if he appeared against them.
Mystic Chain Knights in Session.
ALLENTOWN, Pa, Sept. 9.-The annual
convention of the Select Castle of Pennsyls
vania of the Ancient Order of the Knights
of the Mystic Chain opened here, 1,200 del.
egates being present. General John A.
Logan castle, N o. 144, the banner castle of
the state, came in on six Pullman cars, ac-
companied by a full band, an orchestra, a
chorus and 100 ladies. ‘
It’s a Bad Gang.
GUTHRIE, 0. T., Sept. 9.—Special Agent
Dodge, who was sent out by the Wells-
Fargo Express company to locate the
noted Dalton gang who robbed the express
car on the Santa Fe some time ago, was
holdup last night by the gang, but es-
caped after his horse had been shot from
under him and after he himself had been
slightly wounded.
The Grand Jury Will Investigate. ,
NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—Judge Fitzgerald,
in his charge to the grand jury, referred to
the Park place disaster, and in conclusion
said he hoped the jury would co-operate
with the district attorney in all proper
and vigorous steps for the enforcement of,
the laws to secure public safety and pro-
tection of life.

No one will deny that Gloves are absolutely indispensable to the attire
of “fair woman”—she will have them, be they good or bad, and
none knows better than woman that the average glove is
uncertain—like love, a lottery. Absolute perfection we .
deem impossible and do not claim, but in the new
Foster stock for the coming season we offer
goods that, we believe, will satisfy our
customers and enhance our
reputation.
KID GLOVES AND TROUBLE.
To the majority of merchants who retail Kid Gloves these words are
synonymous, for the sellers maintain that, not only do they lose money on
the stock, but that gloves cause more trouble than all the other departments
together. They say, “Gloves are a necessary evil—we must keep them, but
cannot make a cent on them, for they are all bad.” It is a fact that most. g.
Gloves (except the higher priced) are unsatisfactory, and being all imported,
this fact isdue in a large measure to the high tarifi‘, which necessitates-
squeezing the manufacturer on his prices, so that he must use inferior
leather, hence “tribulations and sorrow.” Believing that the true solution
of the difficulty lies in paying the utmost limit of price and curlailing else-
where, we have proceeded on these lines and expect results that will not .
only please our customers, but will redound to our own good in .increased
patronage.
THE CHOICE.
_ Next to color, consider weight. If too heavy, they are, fuzzy. If too
light, they are tender and break on the seams. It is a mistake to test the
Rather at the wrist; the hand and fingers, are to bear the strain—test it
ere.
PROPER SIZE.
