"I suffered from chronic diarrhoea for ten years and during that time tried various medicines without obtaining any permanent relief. Last summer one of my children was taken with cholera morbus, and I procured a bot tle of this remedy. Only two doses were required to give her entire re lief. I then decided to try the medi cine myself, and did not use all of one bottle before I was well and 1 have never since been troubled with that complaint.

She will not go to America until her presence there is considered impera tive. The greatest secrecy was thrown about Mrs. Maybrick’s depa^ue.

Campat, of Michigan. They were driven at once to Rose- mount. Judge Parker and Senator Davis had never met before. It is becoming daily more evident that Rosemount is not the place in which to look for information con cerning the Democratic national com mitteeman There can be no doubt that the present conditions here favor the selection of Senator Gorman, if he will acept the chairmanship, but Judge Parker today apparently knew no more about the final selection than did the newspaper man who asked him about it. No Whips in Moscow. [Boston Globe.] There is a notable law in force in most of the large Russian towns con cerning horses. Among the curious things that arrest the attenion on ar riving in Moscow is the entire ab sence of whips among drivers of cabs, carriages and all sorts of ve hicles. There is a law prohibiting their use, and there is not a single whip in use in Moscow. The excellent condition of the horses attest the ben efit of this humane law.

A long trial followed, and a number of doctor swore the deceased died of arsenic poisoning. The defense proved that for 20 years Mr. Maybrick had been a confirmed user of arsenic and fhai to have killed a dozen ordinary men. Mrs. Maybrick was eventually sen tenced to death by the judge, Sir Fitzjames Stephen, who spoke for two days in charging the jury. He said It was impossible for them to find her not guilty in the face of the medical evidence. The judge died some time later in a mad house. From the time of Mrs. Maybrick’s conviction her mother, the Baronesa de Rouques, was unremitting in her efforts in behalf of the prisoner. She succeedoKi in having the death sen tence commuted to penal servitude for life, and finally has obtained the freedom of her daughter, to whose re lease from prison she had devoted her life. The Baroness was aided by in fluential friends on both sides of the Atlantic. In 1900, after the death of Lord Russell, of Kellowen, chief justice of England, a letter which he had written to Mrs. Maybrick in 1890 was discovered. It showed he was eon\ inced that she ought never to have been convicted, and it has been generally understood that all the re cent American ambassadors to the court of St. James have done every thing possible to obtain Mrs. May brick’s pardon. The fact of her probable release was used as a reason for securing the post ponement of a trial last year of law suits bearing on Mrs. Maybrick’s inter- est in land in Kentucky, Virginia and West Virginia, until she was able to personally testify. If S h e was not able to testify in these suits Mrs. Maybrick and her mother would have lost all title and interest in the many thousands of acres of land involved in the case. On February 4 last, Home Secretary Akers-Douglas, replying to a question in the house of commons, confirmed the reports which had been in circu lation that Mrs. Maybrick had been removed from Aylesbury prison to a convalescent home, where she would remain until the summer, when she would be allowed her freedom. The home secretary said a license had been granted to Mrs. Maybrick under thd >enal servitude acts. The transfer of the prisoner from a penal prison to a quiet country home constituted an almost unprece dented action on the part of the Brit ish authorities. It was due to the mediation of the Duchess of Bedford, who, as a visitors of Aylesbury prison for many years, had taken a keen per- sonal interest in Mrs. Maybrick, and mitigation of her punishment 7230$.. finally succeeded in obtaining the mit igation of her punishment to the ex tent of her being allowed to spend the last six months of her confinement outside of prison walls. Mrs. Maybrick’s Imprisonment was not terminated with the clang of doors, the last sound which remains in the ears of so many of her fellow- prisoners. It closed before the arch ed doorway of tho white convent of the Sisterhood of the Epiphany, In thli# little town, with the black-robed si§- ters softly uttering their blessings ami good wishes for her future. With two companions. Mrs. May- brick entered tho carriage of Miss Dalrymple, secretary of the sisterhood, CONFERENCE ENDS. Democratic Leaders Leave New York City. New York. July 20.—The conference of Democratic leaders which has been In progress at the Hoffman house for the past two days, ended today when several of the most prominent of them left the city.
