Nine -times in ten it indicates that there is some special disease or weakness of the important and deli cate organs which make herawoman. Nine times in ten it means that some instant and radical meas ures must be taken to save herefrom com plete mental and physical wreck. " I was so nervous I couldn't bear to hear the sound of my own voice when alone " says Mrs. Nellie Brittenhan, of Davenport, Thayer Co., Nebr. " I felt as though there wSSTame one ' ready to grab me if the least sound was made. I really cannot describe the feelings I had, but I can say 1 have no such ugly feelings now and I trust I never may again. I was suffering from female weakness and very much from nervous prostration. , "I was not able to do anything. I could not sit up all day. I had not sat up all day since the birth of my baby, four months before I began to take Dr. Pierce's medicines. I took one doctor's medicine for four months but did not get along at oil; so, discouraged, I thought I would try Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and 'Golden Medical Discovery.' I took six bottles of the ' Prescription ' ana nine of the ' Golden Medical' Discovery' and used Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets along with the other medicines, and I can say they have done wonders for me. " I do all my work now and feel better than for two years. I had not eaten anything for three months except some kind of soup and crackers; now I eat anything I want. I belisver I owe my health to Dr. Pierce's medicines." Discouraged, broken-down women should write to Dr. R. V. Pierce, at Buffalo, N.

Bearing Upon Factional Differ ences in the Party in the State of Kentucky. SHOWS GOEBEL'S LOYALTY. Expresses Desire That All (Jold Democrats Return to the Party Fold The Dan get to the Party by Defeat of Democracy In Kentucky. Br Telegraph to the Morning star. St. Louis, July 20. Hon. Wm. J. Bryan to-night gave to the Associated Press a letter written to Urey Wood son, National Democratic Committee man for Kentucky, bearing upon the factional differences arising in the ranks of the Democratic party in Kentucky through the nomination of W. M. Goebel for governor at Louis ville sereral weeks ago. Speaking of trie Liouisvine convention, Mr. Bryan says: I noted with deep regret the bit terness wnicn characterized the con test for the gubernatorial nomination. ana studiously avoided saying or do mg anything which could be con .strued as an expression of preference between the candidates, all of whom I know personally, and all of whom were outspoken supporters of the Cm cago platform. "I did not then nor shall I now dis cuss the relative merits of the candi dates neither am I sufficiently in formed upon the facts to sit in nudsr ment upon the conduct of the conven tion whitih placed the ticket in the neld. The only objection I feel called upon to consider at the time is one urged by a number of friends whose sincerity I cannot doubt but with whose opinion I cannot agree; namely that thn election of Mr. Goebel would endanger the success of Democratic principles as enunciated in the Chicago piaiiorm." Mr.NUrvan then coes on at jrrpar. length to sh,ow Mr. Goebel's loyalty to the Chicago platform, and expresses a desire that all gold Democrats shall re turn to the party fold, provided they win .awept me jLreiuucrauc piaworm ana support candidates pledged to it. In conclusion, he says: "Certainly a victory won upon the platform adopted oy ine Liouisvuie convention cannot do harm, but what shall we say of a defeat? If the Republican State ticket is elected the Kepublicans in Kentucky ana eisewnere will do encouraged and the fight in 1900 made harder. If the Democratic State ticket is defeated a Kepublican Senator may be elec ted from that State. The Senator elected by the next . Legislature will serve inrougn the next administration, TTTl L ..1 11 i. n t . tt iiai. ouaii n pront us it we elect a President and House of Renresenta- tivs and have a hostile Senate to ob struct legislation. Silver cannot be re stored, the trusts cannot be over thrown, the imperial policy of the Republican nartv cannot h Drought to an end until the senate, and the executive are all taken out of the hands of the Republican party. We are engaged in a great contest between a plutoc racy and a democracy, a contest which may decide finally whether English financiers or American voters ahull control our financial policy; whether our government snail be a govern ment of trusts or a government of the people: wnetner our nation shall r main a republic or become an emrrira "In answer to those who urge that Mr. Goebel's election would be detri mental to the cause of bimetallism. and to me personally, I deem it my duty to say that I have no personal or political interests, but deserve to be considered when Democratic princi ples are at stake and that in my rod? ment Democracy would be injured by tne aexeat or a Democratic ticket nom inated upon a platform which un qualifiedly endorses the Chicago plat form." ITALIANS LYNCHED IN LOUISIANA. 1 Five Men Hanged by a Mob of Citizens in the Town of Tallulah. THE CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE. Shot and Fatally Wounded Dr. J. Ford Hodge Third Outrage of the Kind of Which They Had Been Guilty A I Terror to the Town. By Telegraph tbthe Morning Star. Tallulah, La., July 21. Five Italians were lynched here last night forlhe fatal wounding of Dr. J. Ford Hodge. The dead men are of a class which has been troublesome for some time "and it is believed that they had planned to kiirtha doctor. Some of them, it is believed, have families in Europe, but they have no relatives here. The dead are: Frank Defatta, Charles Defatta, Joe Defatta, Sy. Def ferrcch and John. Cereno. , For several weeks a lot of goats te- lone-iuc to Frank Dafatta have been sleeping and running on the gallery of Dr. Hodges omce and residence. The doctor, on numerous' occasions, requested ih owner to keep his goats penned up, but he. wouici not uo it, and on the night of the 19th Dr. Hodge shot one Of them. , Early next morning Frank Defatta came to Dr. Hodge's office and said to the doctor: You sheet my goat, now you nau better shoot me." The Dr. ordered him to leave and De fatta left mumbling something, which the doctor did not understand. Dr. Hodge took his meals at the residence of a Mr Kauffmann and had to pass Joe Defatta's shop in going there. About sundown last evening the doc tor and Mr. Kauffmann started to supper and as they got to Joe's store, Mr. Kaurrmann, wno was in tne ieaa. says Uharles uetatta was sitting on the steps and Joe standing in the door. Kauri man spoke to them but , neither of the Italians returned the greeting. As Dr. Hodge passed, Charles romped up and said : . " i ou snoot my goat, and struck the doctor, ut. Jioage at tempted to repel the attack by striking back with his fist, but finding the Sicilian too much for him attempted to draw his pistol. Joe Defatta, at the door, -pHilled a double-barrelled shot gun and fired two shots into the doc tor, striking him in his hands and ab domen. - Immediately on the crack of the gun Frank Defatta, Sy. Deferroch and John Cereno who were in-De fatta's store on Front street, started on a run. to Joe's store with shot guns an4 long knives in their hands. Court was in session and a large crowd of country people were in town. With the sheriff and his depu ties they joined in the chase and sue ceeded in arresting and disarming Frank Defatta, Sy. Deferrock and Jno. Cereno, after a hard struggle. The sherirt with his posse at once went to the house and succeeded in taking Charles Defatta. Joe was found hidden under a chimney in an adjoin ing house. He was promptly taken out and tne shentt started to tne jail with Charles and Joe. When the court house square was reached a crowd of 250 citizens overpowered the sheriff. and after a severe struggle took Joe and Charles Defatta down in the field to the slaughter-pen and hung them to the gallows used for slaughtering beeves. Joe denied the shooting and said Charles did it. Charles said Joe fire'd the shots, which a half dozen people saw. Charles said he jumped on Dr. Hodge and was sorry for it. He said Frank Defatta and Sy. Deferroch were the cause of the trouble. The crowd then adjourned to the jail, overpowered the jailor and depu ties. Tne keys were secured and tne crowd quickly brought out Sy. Defer roch, Frank Defatta and Joe Creno and hung them to an oak tree in the jail yard. Not a shot was fired and the crowd was orderly and quiet. A good many citizens plead for the lives of the Sicilians, but to no avail, as this was the third outrage of this kind committed by this class of peo ple. About two years ago Frank De fatta shot and killed a negro for pick ing up a water melon which Frank had for sale. One year ago Joe De fatta shot and killed Pat Matthews, lantern keeper at Millisen's Bend, La., over a trivial controversy. Me was cleared by a technicality of the law. They had frequently . made boasts that they would do as they pleased and their money would clear them. They have since these two scrapes become more open in their ac nons ana unit, ana on several occa sions haye had quarrels with the best citizens. The people here believe the five men had planned to kill Dr. Hodae. iust at dark, as he was going to his supper, as tne doctor generally goes by himself, j. ue pian was ior tjnaries to iumo on the doctor, Joe to shoot "him from the door and if help was needed the others would haye gone to their aid. Their plans were well laid and carried out. Joes gun was found on the counter with a box of shells by it. Dr. Hodge 1st badly shot and the doctors say ne cannot, recover. The five Sicilians were buried to dav in the Potters field near Tallulah. The grand jury is in session and will i vestigate the matter. The grand jury ,which investigated the occurrence reported to-night as follows: "It is evident from the facts brought to our knowledge that the men who were lynched had formed a conspiracy to assassinate Dr. Hodsre. and the mob learning of the facts took the law into their own hands. After diligent inquiry we have not been able to learn the names or identity of any or tne men composing the mob." TRYING TO STEAL A RIDE. Negro Man Killed On the S. A. L Third Regiment N. C. S. 0.

AN INTERNATIONAL ASPECT. Diligent Inquiry Being Made in the Matter. The Governor of Louisiana Asked for Report On Case Warning to Other Italians. Bv Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washington, July 22. The lynch ing of five Italians in Louisiana yes terday promises to assume an interna tional aspect through the action of the Italian government. Count "VTinchi, the Italian charge d' affaires, called at the State Department at an early hour this morning and made, representa tionsito the officials concerning the atrocfty in Louisiana. In order to get full information as a basis for .action by this .government. Secretary Hay thereupon telegraphed the Governor of Louisiana, request ing all the facts in the case. Count Vinchi's action was predicated on re ports from the Italian consular offi cials in Louisiana, and by the press reports. There is reason-to believe, also, that the Italian foreign office is already fully informed on the occur rence. , i Omly Preliminary. It is probable, however, that the representations of to-day are only pre liminary, with the View to calling at tention to the facts reported and to pave the way for any protest or de mand of reparation which may follow. The affair is considered in official. Italian quarters as much like that in the Mafia cases at New Orleans, while Mr. Blaine was Secretary of State, j at which time the Italian Minister, Baron Fava, called for his passports and left the country. Baron Fava is now in Rome on vacation, and during his ab sence Count Vinchi has charge of Italian affairs in this country. Count Vinchi's representations- to the State Department were based upon a brief dispatch from the acting consul at New Orleans, Mr. Pabini. Count Vinchi at once directed that all the particulars in the case be secured, and that special inquiry be made as to whether the victims of the lynching were Italian citizens who had not yet become naturalized. In submitting the matter to the State Department, Count Vinchi wrote a note, reciting the telegram and reinforcing it with an expression of the hope that steps will be taken to ascertain the facts and extend protection to Italians in the neighborhood. Submitted to the President. " He saw Secretary Hay and Assist ant secretary uii. Mr. Hay was about to go to tne w nite House, so that the representations made by the Italian charge were submitted to the President. Throughout the confer ence, tne most agreeame spirit; was shown, and there was no intimation irom vjount v ineni tnat nis govern ment was disposed to make a serious issue of the affair. Neither personally nor in the note which he submitted was there any protest or demand for in demnity. Any steps in this line are likely to come when "the facts are fully i-i-,., j ... esiaonsaea. . When Count Vinchi was seen this afternoon by a representative of the Associated Press, he said that he had no doubt whatever that a satisfactory adjustment wouia De secured.. Count Vinchi recalled that duriner nis service nere, two affairs very simi lar to tnis one in Colorado and the other in Louisiana had been sat isfactorily adjusted and this had been brought about largely through the sympathetic and friendly feeling which prevails between the two governments. He felt sure, he said, that this same sentiment would accomplish a just set tlement in the present case. 1 Difficult to Deal With. ' While greatly deploring the affair. he feels that there are circumstances which make it difficult for the Fed eral authorities to deal with it. There fore he is co-operating with the offi cials here in determining the national lty of the murdered men. It has been impossible thus far to communicate with the consular agent who has gone to the scene. The dispatches sent to him at Vicksburg have been returned by the telegraph company, and the de partment is unable to set track of him. His report and that of the Governor of Louisiana are expected to eive li&rht on the subject and afford data upon which tne two governments can act. Count v mchi paid a third visit to the State Department at 3 o'clock this afternoon. He saw Assistant Secre tary Hill and inquired as to the de partment's action in the matter and ex pressed satisfaction when informed of the telegrapic request made upon' the Governor of Louisiana for a report on A.I T . . T i -s tr . i , -me case, in aaaition, Mr. Jim ex pressed the sincere reeret entertained by the government at the unfortunate occurence. iNo messaee has vet come irom tne ioreign omce at Rome, j Had Filed Declarations. ' New Orleans, La., July 22. A dispatch from Tallulah. La., says that the five Italians who were lynched yes- teraay naa been -living in Madison Parish for some years and had filed their declarations to become citizens. Some had applied for naturalization papers. ; Comment of Italian Press. Rome, July 22. The Fanfulla, commenting upon the lynching of the Italians at Tallulah, La., yesterday, recalls similar cases which have oc curred in the past, and while stigma tizing such savage acts deplores the indifference of the United States gov ernment, which, the Fanfulla says, has not the strength to vanquish fanatical prejudices, and some times, as in the case of the shooting of miners at Hazelton, refuses all explanation. The paper expresses the hope that the Italian government wilk demand and insist upon an explanation of and satisfaction for the lynchingX The other papers make no comment upon the incident. , Italians Warned to Leave. ' j Baton Rouge, La., July 22. Gov ernor Foster has received a telegram from the Secretary at Washington, announcing that the Italian oharge d'affairs had applied to him for in formation in the recent lynching of Italian subjects in the parish of Madi son, and demanding protection for other Italians in that section of the State. The Governor has also re ceived a telegram from the acting con sul at New Orleans, saying that infor mation has been received that his dele gates or agents sent to investigate the lynching will be assaulted should they appear at Tallulah, and that the newspapers announce that District Attorney Patrick Henry, of Vicks burg, Miss., stated that Italians have been warned to leave the parish: of Madison within three days or accept the same fate of the five Italians at Tallulah. Upon receipt of these tele grams Governor Foster wired the sheriff of Madison parish their con tents and requested him to furnish all the facts of the lynching, and the present situation, and to say if the civil authorities in Madison parish could maintain the law.
