ended in Consumption. I had frequent
hemorrhages and coughed night and day.
All my doctors said I must soon die,
Then I began to use Dr. King's New

THE RETURN

Democrats Have Male a M Selection

THE DELEGATION
FROM OREGON
Plans of the Opposition to Delay Gold
Standard Legislation Filibuster
ing in the Senate.
Washington, Dec. 2. The nomination
of Richardson for the minority leader
ship of the hoefo is one of the first moves
towards returning reason that the Demo
crats have made. Of all the men that
were cam! id a tee, Richardson io superior
as n parliamentarian, and is n man cap
able of leading his party. He will be a
very great improvement over Bailey.
Richardson should have been nominated
four years ngo when Bailer was selected,
but McMillan was a candidate from the
same state, which gave Dailey the leader
ship ihat he has made ridiculous during
the pnst four yrtrs.
Representative Moody was the first
member of the Oregon delegation to Ar
rive. He ha9 taken rooms at the Shore
ham. Representative Tongue is tempo
rarily at the Oxford. Senator Simon is
expected tomorrow night, and Senator
McBride by Monday.
The Democrats intend to adopt n very
aggressive policy in order to make cam
paign material. They expect to fight
the currency and gold-standard bill with
all the vigor and etrength they have, not
only in the senate, but also in the house.
If tho majority prevails, they will also
make an onslaught on the expaneion
idea, although Richardson may try to
prevent them from committing suicide
iu this particular. The house will not
bo able to filibuster auainst the currency
bill, its the rules of that body are so ex
plicit that a majority can control.

Gov. Roosevelt attended the recent
commencement at Cornell, and while
there was entertained at one of the
college fraternity-houses. When he
was about to leave one of his staff said
to him: "Governor, the boys have an
excellent library in the house and 1
think they would appreciate its en
largement by a copy of your 'Rough
Riders.' " "Teddy," in an outburst of
good-fellowship, exclaimed: "All right,
boys, I'll be glad to send you a copy
with my compliments; the book would
be a very small return, indeed, for your
hospitality." Whereupon one of the
boys replied, excitedly: "That's so,
governor; I've read.it."
Artificial I.ck That la Inflated.
An English inventor has devised a
very ingenious artificial leg and foot
intended for use in cases of amputa
tion below the knee joint. It is main
ly composed of a hollow rubber cham
ber, which is inflated in exactly the
sajne way as a bicycle tire. The skele
ton of the foot is of wood and contains
within it a rubber-faced point which
permits of movements like those that
take place at the ankle. A pair of rub
ber pneumatic pads surround the end
of the amputated limb, so that no un
due pressure is exerted on the tissue.

Btomach and liver are out of order. All

liver remedy, gives a splendid appetite,

habit that insures perfect health and
great energy. Only 25 cents at any

"One Minute Cough Cure is the bea
remedy I ever used for coughs an
colds. It is unequalled for whoopin
cough. Chrildren all like it," writes H.
N. Williams, Gentryville, Ind. Never

that gives itrmediate results. Cures
coughs, colds, hoarness, croup, pneu
monia, bronchitis and all throat and
lung troubles. Its early use prevents

All persons wishinu to take children,

The most famous bird in this direc

in Tom Otter's skull. Tom Otter was
hanged in ISJS at Lincoln, and gibbeted
in i Jane near Saxilby, still called Gib

victim. A pair of tomtits made their
nest in his skull:

vitiated air of Its carbonic acid, its
