Arthur Ross, charged with assault to murder growing out of a stabbing af fray on a street car last September, was given ten years in the penitentiary yes terday afternoon by the jury in the Thirty-seventh district court. Ross had 1>een charged with stabbing B. D. East land and all the testimony showed that the negro had first insulted Mrs. East land and when warned about it had re torted bv a knife thrust. The assistant district attorney, pros ecuting the case in the absence of Dis trict Attorney Baker, who was engaged with the grand jury, made a powerful appeal to the jury to protect the women from gratuitous insults from negroes and loafers. He asked the jury to do its duty. The jury deliberated a while and then returned a verdict at ton years. The limit which can be given, and which is given only in the most ag gravated cases, is fifteen years. • Suetitijow “Do you know of any woman who ever received any benefit from taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound ? ” If any woman who is suffering with any ailment peculiar to her sex will ask her neighbors this question, she will be surprised at the result. There is hardly a community in this country where women cannot be found who have been restored to health by this famous old remedy, made exclusively from a simple formula of roots and herbs. During the past 30 years we have published thousands of letters from these grateful who have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and never in all that time have we published a testimonial without the writer’s special permission. Never have we knowingly published a testimonial that was not truthful and genuine. Here is one just received a few days ago. If anyone doubts that this is a true and honest statement of a woman’s experi ence with Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound write and ask her. , «cvvumiciiuru mt- vuiii pviiDu tv my next door neighbor, and hope that all suffering women will try it.”— Mrs. J.

Never was such a huge project to rob the people projected as this same tow ering state house. And never was there an ending more sinister for its schem ers. Brass fixtures were awarded in con tracts by the pound. Furniture was sold by the cubic foot. Millions were paid out without right of law. and went into the pockets of members of the grafting conspiracy. And then —death came.

Associated Press. Washington, Jan. 26. —A question has been raised concerning the right to transmit labels for seed packages through the mails under congressional franks, the law officer of the postoffice department has ruled that such labels are not public documents within the meaning of the law, and that there fore they can not be mailed free of charge.

The postmasters always responded to the request of the congressmen to whom they were under obligations for their jobs.
