The Grandest Treasure.
One of the fondest, hap
piest anticipations of a
mother's heart is that by
her Husband's ear
nest toil, and by
careful economy on
both their
parts they shall
Mabie to lay
by a little store i
which the
baby when itis
' grown to man
hood or wom
anhood shall
have as its own
private pos
session. -But
every
wife who ex-
pects to be
come a mother may provide a far more
valuable treasure for her little one's future
than can ever be contained in any savings
bank if she will take the proper care of her
own health and physical condition during
the time when the baby 19 expected. And
if every husband would feel it his bounden
' duty to see that all possible means are
adopted to carry his wife safely through
this critical time, he will help to bequeath
to his offspring that health and natural
vigor which is the grandest fortune a father
can bestow. t
" During the past year I found myself preg
nant and in rapidly failing health," writes Mrs.
W T. Kidder, of Hill Dale Farm, (Enosburg
' Center) Enosburg, Vt., in a grateful letter to Dr.
R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. " I suffered dread
fully from bloating and urinary difficulty. I was
growing perceptibly weaker each day and suf
fered much sharp, pain at times. I felt that
" something must be done. I sought your advice
and received a prompt reply. I followed your
directions and took twelve bottles of Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, and also followed your
' instructions. I began to improve immediately,
jny health, became excellent, and I could do all
f my own work (we live on a good sized farm). I
i walked and rode all I could, and enjoyed it I
had a short easy confinement and have a
I healthy baby boy."
r " Favorite Prescription " is the only pro-
prietary medicine in the world invented
' by an educated physician and scientific
specialist for the one specific purpose of
restoring health and strength to the dis
tinctly feminine organism. It is a prompt
relief and permanent cure for every form
of female complaint or weakness.
No remedy relieves constipation so
quickly and effectually as Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets.

FOUL PLAY IS SUSPECTED.
Body of H. S. Ellerbee Torn to Pieces by
a Railroad Train Near Marlon,
Sooth Carolina.
BvTelegraph to the Morning star.
Charleston, S. C, August 5. Her
bert S. Ellerbe, thirty years old, and
youngest brother of the late Governor
Ellerbe, was either killed and his body
put on the railroad track or killed
accidentally by the south-bound vesti
bule train m Marion county, this State,
last Thursday night: The body was
torn all to pieces, and different bones
and pieces of flesh were found along
the track for many miles. None of
the clothing was found except the
coat, which contained a five dollar
bill, and the trousers, which were
found on the engine when the train
reached Charleston.
In support of the theory that there
was foul play, no sign of blood in any
quantity has been found along the
railroad track, and it is claimed that if
the body had been alive at the time it
was struck by the train there must
have been a great effusion of blood.
The young man stood high in Marion
county and there are many who be
lieve that his death, was not accidental.
TO MEET DEMAND
FOR PAPER MONEY
Gold Certificates in Denoiffina
tions of Twenty Dollars
to be Issued.
TO AMOUNT OF TEN MILLIONS
Purpose Being to Meet the Pressing Need
Throughout the Country for Currency
for Movement of the Fall Crops.
Gold Must be Deposited.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
v Washington, August 5. The
Treasury Department to-day made
requisition upon the Bureau of En
graving and Printing for the printing
of ten million dollars gold certificates
in denominations of twenty dollars
each. The treasurer now holds a large
unissued supply of certificates for the
larger denominations. It is the evi
dent iuteution of tbe Treasury Depart
ment to be in a position to issue gold
certificates freely for gold coin, should
the Fall movement of currency lead
to a demand at tbe treasury for gold
certificates in exchange for gold coin.
It is to be noted that while gold coins
can be freely had in denominatioas of
fives and tens the law restricts the
issue of gold certificates to denomina
tions of twenty dollars or multiples
thereof. It is a debatable question,
therefore, whether gold certificates will
adequately meet the demand for
money of small denominations.
It is now apparent that for the Full
movement of the crops there will bo a
pressing demand for more currency or
paper money. As , this can be fur
nished in no other than by the issue
of gold certificates, there will un
doubtedly be a demand mora or less
great upon the treasury for such cer
tificates against the deposit of gold
coin. J
To Meet Demand for Currency.
The sub-treasury at San Francisco
has already been notified by wire to
resume the issue of gold certificates
on deposits of gold and in payment
over the counter of government obli
gations. The other sub-treasuries
have been notified to the same effect
by letter which they will receive before
business hours on Monday morning.
The sub-treasurers have also been ad
vised that the government will ship
them in additional supply of gold
certificates to-day of what; is known
as department series in denominations
ranging from $20 to $1,000 and aggre
gating about $10,000,000. It is antici
pated that the gold certificates most in
demand will be what is known as
"order certificates." These will be is
sued on request to individual deposi
tors of gold, and in their own names,
in sums ranging from $5,000 to $10,000
each. The government now has in its
vaults between $88,000,000 and $90,
000,000 in gold certificates of what is"
known as the "series of 1888," and
these will be supplied on demand un
til those may be printed at the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing. It will
be recalled that Secretary Carlisle sus
pended the issue of gold certificates
by an order promulgated April 14th.
1893. His authority for. so doing was
contained in section 12 of the act of
July 12, 1882, which made it obligatory
upon the secretary of the treasury to
suspend the issue whenever the gold
reserve retained in the treasury should
fall below $100,000,000. This question
of resuming the issue of gold certifi
cates which was .suspended by Secre
tary Carlisle, has been under con
sideration by Secretary Gage for sev
eral months. He has given the ques
tion his best thought and it is believed
secured the views of other leading
financiers throughout the country be
fore taking this step.
In Cleveland's Time
the gold reserve fell below. $100.
000,000, and the issue of gold certifi
cates ceased under the direction of
Secretary Carlisle. He held that the
Kwer of the' department in the case
psed when ionce the reserve was
trenched upon, and yet certificates
were afterwards issued for two brief
periods and for small sums during his
term.

JNo gold certificates can, under the
law, be issued for denominations less
than tw.enty dollars. Treasurer Rob
erts directs attention to the, fact that
the demand for currency is in much
the greater degree for smaller notes.
By using gold certificates for twenty
dollars and upward, the other kinds of
paper can be turned more and more
into denominations smaller, and this
will give some relief. Gold coin can
be used in five and ten dollars if popu
lar prejudice will permit.

DREYFUS DRAMA
ABOUT TO BEGIN.
Journalists, Witnesses and Other
Actors From All Parts of
the World 1
pARE ASSEMBLING AT RENNES
Cafes Pull of People Discussing the Corn
ing Trial Antl-Dreyfusard Agitators
' Hold Meetings Police. Take
Measures to Insure Peace.
By Cable to the Morning Star.
Rennes, August 5. Kennes has
awakened from its normal condition
of fleepiness and with the i arrival
of hundreds of journalists, from
all parts of the world, and wit
nesses and other actors in the Dreyfus
drama, the town is assuming an ani
mated appearance. The terraces in
front of the cafes are full of people
warmly discussing the coming trial,
which will open at half-past six or
sevena'cl ock Monday.
General Mercier, who was minister
of, war when Dreyfus was condemned,
arrived from Paris this afternoon. His
face showed an anxiour, care-worn
look. A large number of persons had
gathered oa the platform at the rail
way station to witness his arrival, but
no uotewsrthy incident occurred.
The leading event of the day . was
the arrival of the hero of the Dreyfus
affair, Lieutenant Colonel Georges
Picquart. His train arrived at 7
o'clock this evening, an - hour late,
and only a few people were present
at the station except detectives and po
lice officials. As Colonel Picquart en
tered the carriage which Maitre Labori,
counsel for Captain Dreyfus, had wait
ing for him in the station yard, some
of the spectators shouted: "Vive Pic
quart," and "Vive Dreyfus."
The shouts elicited counter cries at
"A bas Picquart" and "A Mort, A
IFau" from the few anti-Drey fusites
present. But the bark of the latter
was worse than their bite, for not the
slightest attempt was made to carry
out the threats, which Colone ;Picquart
utterly ignored. i
AntNDreyf usard Agitators;.
The authorities are apparently be
coming anxious - regarding the main
tenance of tranquility in Rennes
during the trial, owing to the invasion
of the town by a crowd of anti-Drey-fusard
agitators, and heroic police
measures were taken this evening to
insure peace during a couple of oppo
sition meetings which were quite
private. A small number of people
assembled in the neighborhood of the
house in which the meetings were
held and this led the authorities to
mobilize in the locality a force of
policemen on foot,mounted gendarmes
and a swarm of detectives, who closed
the streets in the vicinity, though
there was not the slightest sign of dis
order. Cards of admission to the trial were
issued this afternoon to the represen
tatives of the press, every two foreign
correspondents, without exception, re
ceiving one card between them, which
means that the leading papers of the
world outside of France will be able
to be represented only every other
day.
Captain Dreyfus will be conducted
to the new court room in the Lycee,
which faces the military prison across
the broad Avenue de La Gare, every
morning and return in the evening
between a double row of gendarmes.
Preparing for the TrlaLj
Workmen have been busy to-day
fitting up the Salle. Des Fetes in the
Lycee for. the trial, and the installa
tion of benches, desks, etc., is already
practically completed. A large cru
cifix has been brought from the mili
tary chapsl and hung behind the seats
of the judges, which are placed on the
stage. As the Salle Des Fetes' is real
ly a theatre, the proscenium Has been
left untouched and will form a frame
for scenes of the trial.
HAYTI IN A FERMENT.
U. S. Minister Powell Cables That a War
ship May be Required to Protect tbe
United States Legation.
By Telegraph to the Horning Star.
Washington, August 5. Hayti is
in a state of ferment, perhaas from
sympathy with the neighboring state
of Santo - Domingo. United, States
Minister Powell has cabled the State
Department that the presence of a
United States warship may j be re
quired if the present threatening con
tinue, to insure the safety of the
United States legation and consulates.
The department is closely watching
developments and has been in com
munication with the Navy Depart
ment on the subject, ready to dispatch
orders at short notice to Commanders
Longnecker and Logan of the New
Orleans, and Machias, respectively.
These vessels are now at Santo Dom
ingo, only half a day's sail from Port-Au-Prince,
and will, it is believed, be
quite sufficient to meet the 'minister's
needs.
