NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been abla to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in aH its effects triion the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir, are dependent on i lervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow and nerves is the result Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied, and a thousand w knesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous systen must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it. is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to it pair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nervts. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. Thh recent production of the South American Continent has been found, by anal isis, to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. Tiis accounts for its magic power to cure all forms of nervous

INDIGESTION AND DYSPEPSIA.

Tie Great South American Nervine Tonio Which we now offer you, is the only absolutely unfailing remedy ever discov ered for the cure of Indigestion, Dvspepsia, and the vast train of symptoms and horrors which are the result of disease and debility of the human stomach. No person can afford to pass by this j ewel of incalculable value who is affected by disease of the Stomach, because the experien' and testimony of thousands go to prove that this is the one and only one great cure in the world for this universal destroyer. There is no case of unmalignant disease of the stomach which can resist the wonderful curative powers of the South American Nervine Tonic.

Harriet E. Ball, of Waynetown, Ind., says: "I owe my life to The Great South American Nervine. I hod lieen in bed for five months from the effects a? an exhausted Stomach, Indigestion, Nervous Prostration and a general shattered condition of my whole system. Had given up all hopes of gettingwell. Had tried three doctors wif "no relief. The first bottle uf the Nervine Tonio improved mesa much that I was able to walk a bout, and a few bottles cured me entirely. I believe it the best medicine in the world. I can E ot recommend it too highly." lbs. M. EoskI, Sugar Creek Valley, Ind., writes: "I have used several bottles of The South American .Nervine Tonic, and will say I consider it the btst medicine in the world. I belie ve it saved the lives of two of my children. The- were down and nothing appeared to do them any good U3til I procured this remedy.

Blaine's Earnest Argument, A great deal of interest was created at the Capitol recently by the appearance of Secretary Blaine before the Senate Committe.) on Commerce to make an argument against the landing of a French cable on the shores of South Carolina and Vircinia. He said that negotiations had been pending with Brazil for two years in regard to securing a concession for a cable company controlled in the United Status. The granting of this privilege to a foreign country would be authorizing a practical monopoly. The Secretary was seemingly In excellent health, and It was appnrcnt to those who beard his argument that the gentleman from Maine had not lust any portion of his physical or mental powers.

WIIXIAM AHTOB DEAD. The Head of tho Noted Faintly Passea Away at Paris. Cablegrams received from London and Parle announce tho death at tbe Hotel do Liverpool, in Paris, of William Astor, head of tho Astor family and third richest man in the United States. Tho causo of Mr. 'Astor's death was given as heart failure, and his friends hore at once connected It with the shame and humiliation growing out of the scandal affecting the good name of his daughter, Mrs. J. Coleman Drayton. Mr. Astor, accompanied by his wife, went abroad two months ago and speut most of his time In London and in the south of Europe. When th'o Drayton-Borrowe scandal became public Mr. Astor and hLs wife Joined tbelr daughter in London and took hor to Paris, where they sought to protect her name from the taint that had fallen npon It. The contemptible conduct of tbe parties involved rendered thlH Impossible, and both Mr. and Mrs. Astor felt the Ignomy of their daughter's position very keenly. Mr. Astor was known to be a very sousitlve man, and worry over the affair Is regarded as being, in a measure, responsible for his death. It Is a curious coincidence that William Astor's brother, John Jacob, died ot heart failure at his home two years ago. It is said the original John Jacob Astor was similarly troubled. With continual investing and continual speculating the estimates ot the Astor board have grown steadily until now It Is no uncommon thing to hear It asserted that the combined wealth of tho family amounts to 400,000,000, John Jacob Astor's individual share was often put at $390,000,000, and even $300,000,000, and only last November such a well-informed writer as Thomas O. Shearman estimated It at ?150,000,000. TEItRORIZED BY REDS Authorities at Bomo Fear an Anarchist Uprlslug. Rome advices say that the authorities on Monday began the work of barricading tbe residences of the ofitolals and also the banks. This Is done In view of disturbances which occurred Sunday, and of the apprehension of moro serious disturbances to follow. The working classes are greatly stirred up by the prospect of a renewal of the flour tax. tlits being used as an urputtientto anlmato them against the government The extreme socialists are very active and besides appealing to the prejudice against the mouuyod and upper classes they bavo enlisted the sympathy and co-operation of tho Irredentist ugltators. Threats arc freely uttered against tho Austrians, and there Is reason to tear that iu the event of a riot the Austrian embassy will be assailed For this reason the lower wlndowii of tho embassy were walled up strongly enough to "prevent any assailant') from entering or shooting into the building. The members and servants of tho embassy are armed, and every preparation his been made to give a deadly reception to a mob. Feeling against the Austrians is running very high, partly because of the close friendship shown between the Vatican and the Austrian court. King Humbert has given particular instructions to protect tho embassy from violence, and the troops of tbe garrison are kept ready to go to the rescue at the first sign of danger. HIS BOLD SCHEME FAILED. Arrest ot Kan Who Tried to Soars a ' Cashier Into Giving Htm S)30,000. Al Lake, Utnh. W. O. Austin made a ' most audacious though unsuccessful attempt to rob the Utah National Bank. Austin entered tbe bank with the utmost nonchalance, walked up to tho desk and

wrote this extraorainury uemana on tho back of a bank check: uuive me $3,000 Instantly or I will blow your brains jut!" Tho paying teller, whom he covered with a revolver, which hung over his arm, believing he had to deal with a lunatic, reached for some currency to meet the demand. Then ho remembered that the countor was of Btone and dropped behind it. yelling: "Arrest tho robber!" Austin, seeing he was foiled; fled, but was shortly after arrested. Ho is believed to be crazy. For years he has been a tramp Journalist, and his worked on a score ot leading papers between Chicago and the Pacific coast. BOOMERS LEAVING OKLAHOMA. Trains Are Overcrowded wltn Disgusted Woulil-Be Settlers. A number of boomers left Kingfisher, Oklahoma, all the north-bound trains beng fllled. The crowd in town is, however, not botng dlmlnishe l to any ostcnt, largely owing to tho homesteaders who are coming in to file their claims. About 1.400 are in line at the land office, and it will take at least two weeks to attend to those now waiting, and the number increases every day. The now settlers are breaking the ground, planting corn, and doing all sorts of farm work. Houses ure going up on all sides. Every day sees many new stores and places of business opened. Everything Is dry and dusty, and, unless there Is rain speedily, the settlement of tbe new country will be greatly retarded. CRUSHED BT FALLING WALLS. Three Men Killed and Two Mortally Injured at Jonesboro, Temi. While seven- men were building a vault In tho Court-house at Jonesboro, Tenn., the walls gave way from insufficiency of mortar and a failure to properly tie to tbe main building. Five men toll forty feet and were buried under bricks Bruce Estridge, Frank May, and Joseph Wilson were taken out dead, Wade Enodgrass and Ell Moore were fatally hurt. Gigantlo Tobacco Fraud Again. The full extent ot the tobacco frauds committed by tbe Ban Francisco ring against tho Government by undervaluation was learned Friday. In the lost six months 000 bales of Sumatra tobacco, valued at over a quarter of a million dollars and dutiable at $2 per pound, have beeu entered at the port of San Francisco by the payment of 35 cents per pound duty. This is a loss of revenue to the Government of nearly $100,000. This enormous quantity j of tobacco was distributed to various cities In tho country, aud tbe Government is Just beginning to find It out. To Fight Chicago Faclters, For several years the "Big Four" packers of Chicago have monopolized trado In j Fort Wayne, to the exclusion of local dealers and 1 ackers. Lately there has beeu a movement on foot among local capitalists ; to organize a company to fight the Chicago ; packers for this business. Tho effort has j resulted in tho formation of a company headed by P. B.

Tbe express companies are nlso arranging to handle small lots of fruit and give sv.eclt l ratoo. Eastern Washington Is now chiefly devoted to wiioat raising, nnl con tali a much land which, though arid, Is very feitlle when irrlgitod. Apples, pears, peachei, plums and grapes do well, and melous aio particularly sc.cceslful Were the frelgl t rutes favorable the supply of these frul's for the Eastern market would be almos t unlimited. In Western Washington applet, pears, cherries and prunes are found profitable, and a prune orchard eight years old will net the owner from $400 to SOOO an acre annually. MADE MAD BV FEAB.
