THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS YIELD. The County Clerk to Be Treated With the Same Consideration as Other County Officials. County Clerk McCabe is county clerk, and there is no mistake about it. The county commissioners before they adjourned last evening conceded Mr. McCabe the right to select his own assistant.

County Clerk McCabe renominated John M. Wright, the man whom the commissioners refused to confirm at their last meeting, and he was at once confirmed. Mr. Wright who is. now employed in the post office, will enter the clerk's office about the first of April, or as soon thereafter as he can be released from his present position.

It was a hard blow on the commissioners to be compelled by public sentiment to treat the young county clerk with the same consideration former officials have received, and in order to let themselves down easy they have prepared a statement for publication which is signed by the commissioners and clerk. The statement is in line with the sentiment expressed in the well known lines in the opera Mikado, "It has nothing to do with the case." Their statement is as follows: In the matter of assistants in the county clerk's office, the clerk and each member of the board of county commissioners have agreed upon the following statement for the information of the public: First That, as the result of a full, frank and kindly conference, all disagreement and differences have been ad justed to the mutual satisfaction of the clerk and each member of the board. Second That whatever differences may have existed, arose from mutual misunderstanding, neither party to the controversy fully understanding the desires or purposes of the other party, and that neither Mr. Ritchie, Mr. Wright or Miss McArthur were at any time or in any manner parties to the disagreement.

TOO MUCH ZEAL la Prosecuting: a Man for Burning: Up a Filthy Letter. W. W. Critchfield went before Judge Riner in the federal court today with his attorney, J. T.

Ward, and pleaded guilty to the charge of "tampering with the United States mails." He was fined $1 and costs. Critchfield lived at 326 Kline street with his young wife whom he had just married, last spring about the time Postmaster Thomas made the change in thB force of letter carriers. One day he and his wife returned from a walk and found a letter under the door. He opened it without looking at the address, and his wife read the letter over his shoulder. It became evident as he read that the letter was not meant for him a3 it contained some obscene references very much "off color." Critchfield was so angered at the vulgarity of the letter that he threw it into the fire.

The next day th'e letter-carrier called for the letter, stating that he had made a mistake in leaving it at the wrong house. When he learned that Critchfield had de stroyed the letter he reported him and he was arrested. He was technically guilty of the offense charged against him but when Judge Riner learned the details of the case he gave him the minimum sentence. Whoever began the prosecution had more zeal than sense, as the mailing of an obscene letter is itself a violation of the law. HIS EYES TUEX GREEN.

A Violent Maniac Brought From Jefferson County to the Ayslum. James Crowley, the maniac from Jefferson county who has been in the Shawnee county jail for more than a- week, because there was no room for him in the state insane asylum, was transferred to asylum last night by Sheriff Naylor. Crowley was employed in a brick yard at Holton and is said to have gone insane because of domestic trouble which culminated in his wife leaving him. His insanity takes a peculiar trend, in that he thinks the doctors have cut out his stomach, heart, kidneys and other vital organs, and he is consequently most abusive toward the entire medical profession. Crowley is wild at times, and it was necessary to remove him from his first cell to a stronger one.

It is said at the jail that Crowley's eye3 turn green when he gets in a rage. No one dared to enter his cell and it was therefore becoming filthy. CELEBRATE ALL DAY. Democrats Will Remember Washington' Birthday With "Doings." The Democrats of Topeka are going to have an all-day celebration of Washington's birthday, on February 22, next Thursday. Speeches and Bongs will be made during the morning, afternoon and evening, and there will be refreshments.

The rooms of the Democratic Flambeau club, on lower Kansas avenue, where the the celebration will be held, are undergoing an entire renovation for the occasion, and at the celebration there will be new paper on the walls and a new carpet on the floor. A BIG FIYE7 It Made Reddy's Byes Stand Out for He Had It 'ot. G. H. Reddy, a drunk man, was arrested last night in North Topeka by Officer Summers.

"You are charged with being drunk, are you guilty or not guilty," asked Judge Ensminger this morning in police court. "I guoss I am guilty." "The sentence of the court is that you pay a fine of $5 and stand committed until it is paid." "What did you say," inquired Reddy. "Five dollars!" said the judge. "Five?" The man spoke as if the sum were a million. He was led away.

Peerless West 8th, Steam Laundry 112 and 114 It Strides Its Victims Without Any Warning. .1 SIGNS OF ITS COMIXG. Its Ravages Are Increasing. What Can Be Done to Stay Its Progress During the month of January just past the ravages from pneumonia have been appalling. In the city of New York alone the deaths from the dread disease number more than 600, and judging from recent telegraphic reports we doubt not that the mortality has been corres- pondingly large in other parts of the country.

For reasons unknown to us, says the New York Sun in a recent" editorial, the mortality from pneumonia has risen very greatly in recent times. Up to two years ago the average annual number of fatal cases of it was under but in 1892 the number was 5,841, and last year 6,476. The medical faculty ought to be able to give some explanation of this serious fact, and we should think, might be able to find some more effective means of dealing with the most deadly of all the maladies with which the city is afflicted. While they are engaged in trying to discover an improved method of treatment, people must strive to secure their own safety against the disease by avoiding the causes of it, so far a3 may be possible. If it once gets hold of the system, there is danger in trifling with it.

Pneumonia results from ex posure, change of weather, prevails more among men than women, more among the apparently healthy than among the feeble. We are told the disease is invited by a certain condition of the system, indicated by occasional chills and fevers', a tendency to cold in the throat and lungs, rheumatic and. neuralgic pains, extreme tired feelings, 6hort breath, pleuritic stitches in the side, hot and dry skin, loss of strength and vitality. A celebrated New York physician told the Tribune that pneumonia was a secondary disorder, the exposure and cold being simply the agent which develops the disease, already dormant in the system, because the kidneys have been but partially doing their duty. In short, pnuemonia is but an early indication of a Bright's diseased condition.

This impaired action may exist for year3 without the patient suspecting it, because no pain will be felt in the kidneys or their vicinity, and often it can be detected only by cheminal and microscopical examination. The disease is very obstinate, and if the accompanying kidney disorder is very far advanced, recovery is impossible, for the kidneys give out entirely and the patient is literally suffocated by water. The only safeguard against pneumonia is to maintain a vigorous condition of the system, and thus prevent its attacks by using Warner's Safe Cure, which is the standard and only known remedy for effectually restoring full vitality to the kidneys. It does not pretend to cure an attack of pnuemonia, but it can and does remove the cause of and prevent that disease if taken in time. It is the part of wisdom to foresee the result of neglect and to be governed accordingly.

My nerves were so unstrung that the slightest sounds startled me, and I became sleepless, melancholy, and irritable. Sick and disheartened, I sought the home of an old and dear friend, who immediately advised me to use a brain and nerve food of which I had heard much but knew comparatively little. I would have taken anything 6he chose to give me, but I liked the taste of the preparation and continued its use. I had not consumed one bottle when I found that my nervous system had resumed its normal tone. I no longer jumped at shadows, my appetite came back, each night brought sound and refreshing sleep, and I am now in perfect health and vigor, through a systematic use of Paine's celery compound.

The present season has been the most successful, and therefore the most exacting, of my career, but the invaluable remedy which restored my health has also preserved it. I have recommended it to numbers of my friends, and in every case with most fortunate results." The beautiful prima donna looked the picture of health as she spoke. Her large blue eyes sparkled with animation and her countenance lit up with an expressive smile that enhanced the charming vivacity of her manner as she remarked: "I have found that devotion to a chosen pursuit is not incompatible with good If all the men and women, the clergymen, teachers, merchants, and lawyers in this busy country, whose overtaxed brains cry out in protest against the heavy burdens laid upon them, were to embrace this remedy, I am sure there would be a marked decrease in that terrible disease, nervous prostration, which seems fast becoming a national one with you Americana. Success is, indeed, a glorious thing, but believe me. health is better." mmtmiW 0 mm in E.

GOODMAN PROPRIETORS That stage fright is a malady which afflicts the most experienced and capable actors as well as beginners, is the unanimous verdict of the profession. Miss Marie Tempest whose many successes upon the English and American stage, have placed her in the front rank of operatic stars, admitted frankly upon a recent occasion that she is frequently attacked by stage fright. Miss Tempest combines a voice of extraordinary pitch and sweetness with the dramatic fervor of an emotional actress to a greater degree probably than any other prima donna now upon the English speaking stage, and the statement will be a surprise to thousands of her admirers whom she has impressed as the personification of supreme confidence and self-controL "The sensation is one of utter collapse," she said, "it is truly an awful feeling and is nearer to seasickness than anything else I know of. Players with a highly nervous organization are sure to be attacked by it when approaching the climax of an important part, or when appearing for the first time in a new play. Those playing emotional roles are more susceptible to stage fright than others, because the individual capable of portraying those parts successfully is necessarily possessed of a highly nervous and impressionable temperament.

"In one respect a highly developed nervous organization is indispensable to Euccess, as without it a proper conception and feeling of the part to be acted are impossible. You know an actress must not only understand her part, but be so absorbed in it that she forgets her own personality, and for the time being lives in her assumed character." "Then great nervous excitability is a decided advantage to an actress?" "In the way I have described, yes; as a general proposition, no.
