No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthener of the life forces of the human body and as a great renewer of a broken down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the Lungs than any ten consumption remedies ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous euro for nervousness of females of ail ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known, as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic almost constantly for the space of two or three years.

NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of au the ailments to which the human family is heir, are denendent on nervous exhaustion and immured digestion. When there is an

As the nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it Is the first to suffer for wtnt of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be ammtied. This recent oroduction of the South American Continent has been

NEARLY 4 LYNCHING.

MURDER BY A NOTORIOUS DBS MOINES MAN. In a Causeless Rage Bn Fires ITitnr liul lets Unto B. H. Wlsliart-Tliis Is Not 111m ITIrst Shooting Angry l?on. lace, Frank Tierce fatally wounded B. H. Wishart, at Dos Moines, and narrowly escaped lynching. Intense excitement prevailed when he was arrested, andcrlos of "Bring a rope!" and "Lynch him!" were heard on every hand. Forty polieemon were necessary to escort him to tho jail. The feeling Is so strong against Pierce that trouble may romo at any moment. Wishart was hit by four bullets, and a crowd of soo people gathered at the City Hall when l'lerto was placed In jail. For throo years Pierce was tho loader of tho Dcs Molnos searchers. Ho has shot soveral persons In that city, and on throo occasions mobs have boon organized to lynch him. Tho rases of Harry Lloyd and Terry Chambers attracted great attention at tho timo. Anothor of his victims is in the insaoo asylum from Injuries received at Plerco's hands. -Heretofore Piorco has rcceWod tho support aud sympathy of tho temperance people, but this crime Is tbe last straw which any kind of public opinion can stand. Fierce, who is a scavengor, drove one of his wagons toward tho customary dumping grounds on lower West Ninth street, Tho ollicors had notifiod him that ho had no right to uso tho ground used by anothor or that which was owned by tho city. Driving down Ninth street, ho camo about opposite tho new crematory. Mr. Wishart, who is the logal guardian of tho property In bohalf of the city as foreman of tho crematory, ordered him not to dump there. On Wishart's coat was the star of his authority as an officer. The two men fell into a sharp dispute. Piorco ordered his men to dig again. They hesitated. Mr. Wishart, a revolver hanging at Mi side, said: "I am an officer of tho Jfly,I have orders to allow no man to dumn in the street They aro going to pave and will not allow dumping." Piorco said ho bad a right to dump somewhere, and that he would tear down tho fence which blocked tho street, it being still unopened. Wishart said! "I havo no authority over the fonco. You can tear that down at your own risk, but tho street I am here to defend." Plorca seized a shovel and made an attempt to dig, when, his rago overcoming him, ha revoWers 1sn "Consider yourself under aiTlWl. 111 .. screamed. "I'll shoot you or any other man that tries to stop me, and nrod. Wishart raised his revolvor to tiro bacIn doing so his revolver came in cont&t with Pierce's and was broken. Whether a bullet left It Is a matter of doubt Wishart, seeing his revolver was useloss, let it drop to tho ground. The first bullot of Pierce struck Wishart in tho arm. But Pierce, seeing his victim unarmed, did not desist his murderous work. He fired three more shots, one, according to the statement of an oyewitness, after Wishart had dropped to tho groundTo the crowd which gathered and was gathering In he said: "Stand back, or there will be some moro dead mon." With revolvor In hand his wagon was driven down towaid the river whore he had concluded to go and damp. Tho takon to tho CVvyTTalL Doctors wore called in and made an examination. Besides tbe wound in the arm a hole was fouira in his abdomen. One of the other -' ' bad entered a little to tho right of .. middle and lodged somewhere in his back. While in tho City Hall Wishart lay in great agony on a pallet until Mrs. Wishart arrived. Tho grief of the poor woman was terrible to see. At - last for the sako of hor husband she was Induced to control horsolf. The littlo son of tho dying man also was there. Ho had happened to bo at the City Hall as his rather was brought in He pushed up to him to speak. Mr. Wishart said nothing, but raised up bis lips to kiss him. He was a manly littlo fellow of about twelve yeais and struggled hard to keep back the tears. He kept continually asking: "Tell me how he is, nleaso. Will ho die?" While Wishart was lying in tho City Hall basement the officers arrived with Piorco. The crowd had collected in great numbers at tho first intimation that'the notorious Pierce had killed a man. They were Jammed about the City Hall so thickly that the officers had difficulty in opening a way through tho mob. As he slipped out of his Dtiggy the niarsnai demanded his revolvers. Ho gavo them up. A volco in the crowd cried out: "Where is the rope?" A look of dismay flashed over Pierce's features. He gave one look at tho angry crowd, another at his weapons, now out of his hands, and then bounded up tho steps. He was carried down tho stairs, tin tho way he was cursing and swearing continually. Ho said: "You can't put mo in jail. You'vo no right to. I demand bonds." But, bonds or no bonds, ho was hustlod down. When he came to tho door of the cells he was soarched. Tho holsters were still on him. Thon turning to tho olDocrs who were searching him ho said: "What aro you trembling for? Why, you shako like a leaf. Does it take six or eight men to arrest 0116 man? I can arrest a man alono and ho will come." After a few hurried wonts, in which he said ho had acted In solf-dofonse, Piorco was taken to tho cage and put in. When brought down tho lower hall ho passed by the hoad of his groaning victim, but lie did not deign to givo him a gianco, and seotnod actually uroud of his deed. Hn was cool and collected, having recovered from his fright, and continually taunted tho officers. His loan, cadaver ous features and furtlvo yes did not quail as he looked at any one, and his wholo appearance was one of dare-devil defiance. Tha Next Congress.
