"My sister and I have been in the habit of taking Hood's Sarsaparilla in the Spring, and we find it -works wonders. It relieves that tired feeling, purifies the blood, clears the complexion, and makes U3 feel better in every way. I believe it to be a duty to speak in praise of so beneficial a remedy."

Charley Mitchell Give Praise to the Brooklyn Boxer. New York, March 23. Joe Bernstein has been promised by Sam Harris the second fight with Terry McGoern be fore Jim Kennedy's Twentieth Century club of San Francisco. The Kastside feather -weight will meet the champion as eoon after McGovern fights Oscar Gardner as can be arranged. This, of course.providing that McGovern defeats the Omaha lad, which on form looks almost a certainty. Bernstein went west yesterday with Gardner and will look after the latter's training and act as his second on the night of his battle with McGovern. Bernstein, is in good shape, and says he will -nt. r the ring in better trim than he has been in a long time. In his two battles with McGovern, the first a twenty-five-round one and the second a seven-round affair, Bernstein gave McGovern hard fights. He looks to be as good an opponent as the cham pion could select tor the coast, barring possibly Dave Sullivan, whom he has not yet fought. Terrv McGovern boxed half a dozen spirited rounds for the ediiication of England's former boxing champion, Charley Mitchell. Terry's o pponents with his sparring partners, Danny Dougherty and Jack Donohue, and he slammed into both men in right Jively fashion. Mitchell paid very close attention while Terry was on parade, and he seem ed to be much impressed with the Brooklyn boy's ability as a rapid-fire boxer. When the feather-weight marvel finished his work Mitchell was not slow in expressing his opinion of McGovern'a powers with the stuffed gloves. "That boy is a w onder." said Mitchell. "I never saw such a fighting machine. He's worthy of all the praisa that has been showered upon him. "Why. do you know that that husky little lad could go over to England and whip everv scrapper in the country, big or little, that's i certainty. He could be champion of England if he wanted to go after the title, which, by the way, does not amount to much nowadays. "McGovern evidently puts marvelous force in his blows for a lad of his ounces. I understand now how he trimmed Ped lar Palmer, the cleverest of our boys, in a punch." Mitchell has sailed. He said he enjoy ed his stay in this country very much, and that he may return next summer and take in the Buffalo Exposition. Mitchell's bosom friend, Kid McCoy, in tends to run a thirst cure emporium at Buffalo during the summer, and he may give a few boxing exhibitions, with the British heavy weight as sparring part ner.

Goes on a Crazy Drunk Firing EeTolver Recklessly. KILLED BY AN OFFICER Marshal Harkinson Finally Com pelled to Act Decisirely. Schlatter, the Dead Man, Has Had Such Spells Eefore. Inman, Kan., March 23.Joseph Schlatter, a jointist of this place, was shot by City Marshal Harkinson Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Schlatter had John Pegg at work "on his building next door to his Joint repairing the chimney, and became enraged at him for some cause or other, Schlatter being crazy drunk, got his gun and threatened to shoot him. , - Some one sent for the marshal who came and tried to got Schlatter to go in the house and leave Pegg alone. Schlat ter became enraged at the marshal and told him he would kill him. The .mar shal went for his gun and when lie came back Schlatter again went after him and dared him to put his head out of he door. Then Schlatter started up the street threatening to shoot anyone who came near him. He spied a man on the sidewalk whom he thought was an old enemy of his and drew his gun on him but some one told him he had the wrong man. He turned and saw Chas. Powers, the proprietor of a cafe here, and shot at him. The bullet struck the door casing in front of A. G. Haberlein's general store. From. there he went through Pank rote's hardware store and out the back way where he met some men who were setting up a header. He scattered them with one shot but did not hit any of them. Then .down the alley where he met the marshal and shot at him. The marshal returned the fire and Schlatter went into H. Vogt's lumber office look ing for more shells for his gun, not suc ceeding he started again out through the lumber yard for the main part of town. The marshal was in the alley and commanded Schlatter to throw down his gun, but Schlatter came on toward him, revolver in hand, presumably ready for him. The marshal called again and again to him to drop his gun but he would not. The marshal fired intending to shoot him in the arm but Schlatter must have moved to one side and was shot through the heart, killing his al most instantly. Schlatetr had had several of . these spells and has time and again when drunk swore he- would kill John Pegg. the marshal and the Rev. Mr. Moore, whom he blamed for causing his joint to be closed up some time ago. Most of the people feel that Marshal Harkinson simply did his duty. The coroner came down from McPherson in the evening and held an inquest. Schlatter has several brothers and sis ters who live in tlie country and are highly respected. . CHARITY OF PRATT CITIZENS.

Markets Oenerally Good and Business . j - New York, March 23. IK. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: The position of general business is sat isfactory, being- marked this week by increased activity of retail operations throughout the west and in some At lantic seaboard cities, which is consid ered the forerunner of a generally go'jd spring trade. New enterprise is reliected in the largest demand in many months for builders' hardware and general ma terials and contracts for prompt deliv ery of all structural goods are very dif ficult to place. Collections are prompt and railway tonnage is well maintained. Earnings of all-Tailroads for the month of March to date show a gain of 10.8 per cent, over last year and 26 per cent, over 1S99. The gains extend to prac tically the whole country. The textile industry alone does not improve. Bhort time has been adopted by Fall River cotton mills and there are reports that some of the southern weaving mills are about to curtail production but this has been without special effect upon demand for either print cloths or heavy brown cottons. Quotations of pig iron and finished steel tend toward a higher level. There is till the wholesome element of con servatism which prevents violent fluc tuations and keeps the advance at a moderate rate but the tendency of the market is undeniably toward better things. The most conspicuous ptren-th is apparent in Bessemer pig, which now commands $17 at Pittsburg, while steel billets have sold at $24 and high carbon billets reached $30. Steel bars are $1 per ton higher and Ftructural shapes are firmly maintained with everv expecta tion of an advance. While these quo tations show moderate gains, much higher rates are paid for immediate de livery and small amounts. A short time ago it was expected that new ore prices would be much lower bi; : the remarkable strength of products will tend to wustain values of the raw ma terial. New high records are constantly established for coke in the Connellsvi! ie region and prices are firm. Among tha minor metals further depression in ilr. was the feature. The amount of cotton coming forward at the south indicates that plantation Etocks are by no means exhausted, and preparations for the iew crop promise an enormous acreage. Footwear Is firmly maintained, for e'i ple lines although high priced grades are easier Some decrease in demand dv riot disturb producers, as factories nre bu-y on contracts that will require months to fill Buyers who left Boston recently are now sending in orders free ly Especially is this noticed in the lo cal market for patent and enamel Ehoe. Leather la in good demand, but quo'a tiore are unchanged. - Hides at Chicago have declined stead ily for two months, the net fall in th average of ten grades amounting to 7. per cent. Despite the weakness in do mestic lines, foreign hides are tending upward. Special reports telegraphed this weec indicate that the winter wheat crop is in good condition and an unusally heavy acreage was planted at the southwest, while ravages by Hessian fly have been exaggerated. Failures for the week numbered 224 in the United States, against 1S3 last year, and 33 in Canada, against 27 last year. Six Cases of Scarlet Fever. Fort Scott.
