TilL'RSDAY, JULY U\ 1S94.

AN IMPRESSIVE SCENE. There was a remarkable- scene in the Senate the other day. 1'offer, of Kansas, had made a speech in which he attacked the President for using regulars to preserve order in Chicago, a speech that was stupid for its malignancy, incendiary and wholly irrational. Senator Davis, of Minnesota, arose and replied. lie had made no preparation, and spoke offhand, llis language ehosen carefully, and was stated with judicial calmness 11c endorsed tiie President, and his manly utterances made the breasts of every lover of his country swell with patriotism. When he had finished his manly utterances, the Senate, which had been absolutely silent, broke into applause and almost every Senator then arose and shook hands with him, and tears welled into the eyes of strong men. Then it was that General Gordon, of Georgia, carTying- under his left eye a scar received in fighting against his country, stood up and proclaimed himself an American. and in terms that were earnest, defended the President and the country and said, as Senator Davis had done, that this was a time, not for party spirit but patriotism. He, with deep feeling, urged that the I'nion must be preserved at all hazards. As he uttered his tribute to the United States liis eyes were wet and many of the Senators and occupants of the galleries wept and tried to hide this evidence of weakness which was the greatest tribute to their patriotism that could have been given. Senator

Daniel, another Southeruer.then arose and offered a substitute for the Peifer resolution endorsing the President,and citing the constitutional powers under which he acted. It is said that since the great days when important events quickened minds of such public men as Webster and Clay and important recoa' struction -debates made the country hang upon the oratory of Slorton. of Indiana, and Blaine, of Maine, the bt-ene that day has been unequaled.

THE INCOME TAX.

The income tax provision of the tariff bill, as it finally passed tlie Senate, imposes a yearly tax of 'J per cent on that pa/t of every income which exceeds 81,000. For instance, if a man's yearly income is $4,.*00, he pays 2 per cent on S500. This provision goes into effect January 1, 1S9", and will continue in force until January 1, 1H00. Hence its life is limited to five years, if Congress does not extend it. If the Democratic party continues to run the country on the same policy that it has adopted during the last year and a half that it has been in power there will not be much income to tax—not enouph to make mueli of a fuss over. The people would prefer a policy that would insure some income.

hit-cr-Ocean: Nothing could

have shown more plainly the real character of the Debs insurrection than the kind of men who came forward to bail out Debs and his associates. Tliey ivere the notorious William Fitzgerald and the no less notorious "l'.ill" Skakel. One has had the reputation for many years of being the promoter of all sorts of crookedness, and the other is known to W a professional gambler. Time and again Fitzgerald has tried to break into Democratic politics and been heavily sat down upon, owing to the blackness of his reputation, and last spring Skakel tried it. Neither of them has the slightest affiliation with honest labor. Thugs and bums, habitual criminals and professional gamblers are their associates. If Debs had made that his special aim he could not have linked his name with two more disreputable wealthy citizens of Chicago than his bondsmen, Fitzgerald and Skakel.

Democratic members of the con

ference committee are still wrestling with the tariff bill. They have come to no agreement among themselves. The Republican members have not been notified to appear. The negotiations between the different Democratic factions are being conducted in secret. The ultimate fate of the bill depends upon these negotiations. If the bill is to become a law it will be the price of successful dictation through the union of such an aggregation of capital as is represented by the Sugar Trust, White Lead Trust, Whisky Trust, CottonSeed Oil Trust, Standard Oil Trust, and a syndicate of Democratic millionaires, who, in expectation of free coal, have invested in Nova Scotia bituminous mines. The Trusts have the Democratic party by the short hair.

CHAPTER XVIL

From the same direction taken by Taylor, but evidently coming out of a narrow valley bearing off to the left, appeared a white man with a gun on his 6houlder. He was in view when half a mile from camp, and long before he reached it all the men were watching his approach.

He was one of the four renegades, and this was the visit Harkins had heard them plotting to make. The captain, Harkins and Joe knew this, but none of the others knew that the girl Lizzie was in camp, she having kept herself secreted in the wagon.

The man continued to advance at a leisurely pace, and by and by he was near enough to the group to call out:

.•"Who are yout"

"Howdy, strangers! 1 reckon I kin conw in, being as 1 aiift a hostile Indian."

The captain returned his salutation, and the renegade came to a halt in the camp, looked keenly around him and continued: "Come after gold, 1 reckon, and from the looks o' things you've been fooling away your time fur a hull week. In course you was green and didn't know or you wouldn't hev stopped here two hours." "Wliak's the matter of this place?" queried the captain. "Nutliin, so fur's grass and water goes, but if you want gold you must go whar it is. Leastwise, the rest of us hev had to." "And where is that?" "A matter of twelve miles up the valley. Thar's plenty up thar to be had fur the digging, and only a small party hits got onto it yet. Never saw such richness afore. I believe ye kin almost load one o' them wagons in a month."

There were murmurs of admiration and exclamations of astonishment from the men. "1 belong to the party up thar," continued the stranger, "but 1 don't go much on digging out the stuff. Rather be moving around, you know. I kin guarantee that the boys will welcome ye if ye want to come. Thar's enough fur all." "It is very generous indeed of you," .replied the captain. "We came for gold, and of course wo must take advantage of your offer." "Ayr-! that we must," shouted the men. "What brought me out this morning, at least this way," observed the man as he carefully noted everything in camp, "was a calamity. One of the boys up thar brought his gal out with him. The

Injuns got arter us and skeart her clean crazy. Since that time she's bin tryin to run away, imagining that the reds were arter her scalp. She got off last night and might hev cum this way." "That's awful!" sighed Harkins. "I've got a gal of my own down in the wagon there, and I'd rather see her dead than crazy." "The wolves would be likely to pull her down last night," mused Joe. "Two or three big fellows were around camp just before daylight." "So ye've got a gal o' your own?' queried the man of Harkins in tones which betrayed doubt. "Oh, Bess!" called the latter in reply, and the girl put her head out of the wagon and asked what was wanted. "Waal, I'll hev to look further," said the renegade as he turned away. "Poor gal! How 1 pity Ikt! And when will ye be ready to move up the valley to the gold fields?" "Today perhaps," answered the captain. "Better not lose any time, as thar will be a rush in yere from all directions. So long to ye."

When he had cleared the camp Harkins told his story and the man's object was made plain. Harkins did not keep back the secret of the cave, but told it just as ne had received it and suggested that in case the contents could be found there should be an equal division. "They want us to move up the valley in order to let them out," explained the captain. "Therefore our plan -will be to remain where we are until we know what there is in the story. They haven't found the cave yet and there is a chance of our coining in first. We Bhall certainly do some looking for it. We'll let that chap get well out of sight and then go on a still hunt."

Two hours later the captain, Harkins and a man named Andrews set out in company under the guidance of the second to seek the canyon and the cave. While they are searching let us see what befell Taylor, who had made a temporary camp in the small valley.

When he came to think it over he condemned himself for having acted

rashly. He was now alone and outlawed. Should he succeed in finding the gold how was he to bring it away? He was and would bo in constant danger from the Indians, and if given a team and the gold loaded up for him tnere was not one chance in a hundred of his driving safely back to civilization. While ho coveted all he realized that he must be content with a share in order to get any at all. "If 1 should go back and tell 'em of the cave it would make 'em feel all right," he soliloquized as he looked up at the rugged sides of the valley. "Fool! fool!" he exclaimed after a moment "hasn't Harkins already told them of it as the reason why 1 sought his life? All know it and all will divide and leave me out in the cold! I'm the biggest fool on earth!" "1 quite agree with ye!" said a voice not five feet away, and Taylor sprang up to find the renegade who had visited the camp below standing almost over him. "Saw yer hosses' tracks leadinin yere, ye know," said the renegade in explanation. "Rather curus to find a white man prowling around alone in this kentry. Yer scalp must be nailed on or ye wouldn't chance it this way." "Who aife vou?" asked Taylor as soon

DR. R. C. FLOWER.

AKD HIS CONGRESS OF PHYSICIANS —MIRA0LES ili MEDICINE.

Monstrous Tumors Meit Away—The Lame Throw Aside Their Crutches and Walk —Cancer, Consumption and Chronio Troubles Cured in a Mysterious Manner.

Our readers arc well acquainted with the name of Dr. R. C. Flower, of Boston. Ilis miraculous cures of the most desperate and abandoned cases when giyen up as incurable by leading physicians has caused the Intcr-Ovcttn of Chicago, Cincinnati Eiu/ulrcr and New York Trihitnc to say if miracles were ever performed, many of Dr. R. C. Flower's cures belong to that class of wonders. The Cincinnati Enquirer recently interviewed numerous prominent people in all sections of the country regarding Dr. Flower's treatmentof patients. Here is what they say.

L'hey speak for themselves: A Wonderful Curo. Wm. Mix, a prominent lawyer and wealthy gentleman of 104-1 Third avenue, Louisville, Ivy.: Dr. R. C. Flower, of Boston, Mass., cured my wife several years ago of the most terrible and dangerous diseases woman can be heir to. I consider Dr. Flower's pure of Mrs. Mix almost miraculous. I had 'Pent thousands of dollars on prominent physicians in Louisville and New ork without any help. After several months under the best specialists of New York she continued to grow worse, and 1 brought her home in the deepest despair. Under these conditions I took her to see Dr. Flower, lie told her her trouble better than she could have told him, without asking a question. In a few months under Dr. Flower's treatment she was entirely cured, and has enjoyed ever since the finest health. As a physician Dr. Flower leads the world, 1 believe. lie is a great man, his judgment is tlie highest authority. As a man Dr. Flower is one of the most pleasing, entertaining and cultured gentlemen you ever met, and a man of the highest integrity. j.

Marasmu?.

Ilenrv D. Posey, 015 Chestnut street, Evansville, Ind., said: "I consider Dr. Flower the greatest physician in all the world. I don't believe there was ever such a doctor, and I doubt if there will ever be another, and I form my judgment from his work. "I was a living skeleton when I went to see Dr. Flower, over a year ago. 1 could not eat anything, not even milk, without great distress. I had wasted to a shadow I had given up hope and was given up. I resolved, as a verylast resort, to consult Dr. Flower. I did so. He told me all my trouble without asking a question. Then I knew I was in the presence of a man who knew his business. I put myself under his care, and improved immediately, and am a sound, well man today. You can say for me 1 believe he has no equal on earth."

Fibroid Tumor.

Mrs. James E. Smith, of Corydon, Ind., said: "When I went to see Dr. It. C. Flower about a year ago I was suffering with a large advanced tumor. I had consulted and beeu treated by all the best doctors in this section of the country. They all advised an operation, and stated that unless 1 had one performed 1 would live but a fewweeks, and it was by no means certain that an ^operation would help me. Dr. Flower told me my troubles, their origin and growth without asking me a question. lie stated that in his opinion an operation would prove fatal on the other hand, he believed 1 could be successfully treated and cured without an operation. I placed myself under his treatment and began to improve immediately to-day I am a well woman—no tumor, no pain, strong and happy. I wish every sick person knew Dr. Flower." l'liralygig ami Tumor— A Miracle.

Mrs. Wm. Deakync, of Sheridan, Ind., said: About a year ago I visited Dr. Flower. I was then helpless, in a paralyzed condition went of crutches whenever I went out. A terrible tumor increased my already abnormal size rapidly. I measured over three and a half feet around the waist and over four feet from hip to hip. The disease had settled iu one limb and I had no use of it was also fast losing my eyesight. My nerves were shattered snd 1 had no memory. Not one of my friends thought 1 could ever be helped. The physicians had given me up as incurable. Dr. Flower had told me ray troubles without asking me a question, or how they came upon me. I took a course of treatment under him, and, thank God, I am to-day a well woman. Look at me—tumor gone, natural in size, sight restored, memory good, nerves like iron, no crutches—I can walk for a mile and not feel tired. Why, sir, I believe Dr. Flower to be the greatest man of this age. He is a marvel—a giant in his work. Several of my acquaintances he has cured in the same way. The people in Sheridan speak of this cure as wonderful and miraculous.

Consumption.

'•I was a sufferer with consumption," said Mrs. John D. Beckner, 103 John street, Evansville, Ind. "I had doctored with numerous physicians without relief. As a last resort (and the lady laughed as she added, 'Dr. Flower is always the last resort,') I went to see Dr. R. C. Flower. He told me all about my troubles without asking me to say a word. So pleased was I with the examination that I placed myself under his care, and began to improve immediately, and to-day am a well woman. Ten months ago I could do no work, could scarcely walk, spent my time lying dowu or in a rocking chair now I can do any kind of work, walk as much as when I was a young girl. I cannot speak too highly of my physician," said this cultured and refined woman. "Dr. Flower is a great man, an honest, candid man. He is smart, quick and keen, and wonderfully fascinating. I don't think the sick have any cause to fear if under his caiV-v

Conti

said: 1 was a helpless and confirmed invalid when I went to see Dr. 15. C. Flower. I could not walk 100 feet without sitting down. Besides, 1 was a nervous wreck/ He diagnosed my case accurately. I began to improve immediately under his treatment. Can now skip, ruu. and do what 1 want. Am well. I think Dr. Flower a medical wonder.

Chronic Stomach Trouble.

Rev. S. W. Keister, Dayton. O., said: '•1 went to see Dr. II. C. Flower as a last resort. He told me my troubles better than 1 could have told him he cured me of a dreadful stomach trouble and nervous exhaustion. I consider him the most wonderful physician living."

Savinl From a Fatal Operation. Mrs. C. IS. MeOmber, of Ballstou Spa, N. .. said: Dr. R. C. Flower, of Boston, cured me of an enlarged, fallen, inllamed and ulcered womb. An operation by numerous physicians was the only thing advised, with 110 hope held out of its being successful. 1 had been giren up as incurable, and had given up all hopes of ever being cured, when as a last resort my husband took me to see Dr. R. C. Flower. 1 was under his treatment for a few months, began to improve immediately and iu a few months was cured.

Gastritis.

Mrs. Etta Miller (wife of Mr. Miller, the merchant,) of Bingliampton, N. Y., says: 1 had been a great sufferer for years with stomach trouble, 1 had beeu treated by the best physicians in New York, who all in time gave my case up as incurable. They had treated me for gastritis, catarrh and cancer of stomach, for nervous dyspepsia and consumption of stomach and bowels. As a last resort I consulted Dr. R. C. Flower, and he took my case, and in a few months I was permanently cured.

Nervous Prostration.

Mrs. Joseph R. Sprague, Brewster, N. Y.: 1 had been°ill for ten years when 1 went to Dr. R. C. Flower. After the first month's treatment felt that he had helped me wonderfully. Was in a terrible condition had nervous prostration and cancerous stomach trouble also suffered with terrible headaches. Had been given up as incurable by all doctors and had given up all hope myself. But, thanks to Dr. Flower's skill, I am a well woman to-day and able to attend to my household duties and do just what I like. "He also cured my sou of enlargement of the liver. "I don't believe there is any need of anyone dying if the}' will place themselves under his care."

Fungus Stomach.

Dr. Brooks, of Brooks .t Evans, a prominent dentist of Portland, Me said: "I am an admirerer of Dr. It. C. Flower. I consider him the ablest physician of the age. Why, sir. he can tell a sick persou his disease without knowing anything about him or asking him a question, just as easy as he could read his name. He has most successfully treated and cured -ine of a very serious and dangerous internal trouble which threatened not only my immediate health, but life (fungus of the stomach.) I was almost incapaciated for work, was wasting away aud rapidly losing my strength. Under his treatment I sprang into health, have gained in strength and flesh, and am now young again. Dr. Flower is to me a marvel, an unsolved wonder. He is the most fascinating and genial man you ever saw. He is quick and brilliant, and it makes one feel well and young to talk with him."

The "Worst of lilood Troubles, Mrs. A. G. Thompson, late of Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, now of Pittsfield. N. H., says: Dr. R. C. Flower, of Boston, cured me over ten years ago of the worst blood trouble man or woman ever .had. It was eating the flesh rapidly from my bones. I suffered all the misery and torture of time every hour of my life. All the leading physicians of New York and New England had treated my case and all had given me up as incurable. In this condition I applied to Dr. Flower, and in a few months was permanently cured, for in ten years I have had

iiq

return of the trouble.'" (Mrs. A. G. Thompson is one of the best known womemin New York and New England, her husband being for over twenty years one of the leading heads of the Fifth Avenue Hotel.)

Throat and Lung Trouble.

Rev. P. R. Danley, G14 W. Edmond street, Springfield, 111., said: "Dr. li. C' Flower saved my life. He cured me of throat, lung and heart trouble. I was a physical wreck and would soon have been in my grave. I improved immediately under his treatment, and in a few months was permanently cured.' lilood Poittoniug.

Mrs. Josephine Boardinan. Norwich, Vt., said: "Before going to Dr. Flower I had been given up to die by several physicians, who pronounced my disease blood poisoning and cancer. "After a few months' treatment with Dr. Flower am entirely cured. I was confined to my bed for several years and almost paralyzed. To-day I am perfectly well."

Cancer of Breast nnl Neck.

Mrs. Hiram Bond, Haverhill, Mass., (and wife of one of the largest shoe manufacturers in America), said: "Dr. Flower cured me in of cancer of breast and neck, also tumor of womb and left ovary I had three operations performed, but in each case the cancer returned more violent than before. I was pronounced incurable by the leading physicians of New England. In this condition I [went to see Dr. R. C. Flower, of Boston. He cured me, removing every trace of cancer, tumor and bad blood, and all this without the use of a knife, without pain or my losing a drop of blood. I was under Dr. Flower's treatment about twelve months. He has cured many of my friends of similar diseases."

Gastrltia.

Hon. J. Willard Rice, of Boston,said: "Dr. R. C. Flower cured me of a gastric stomach trouble which threatened not only my health, but my life, and that after the best skill of New York and Boston had failed to give me relief. Dr. Flower is one of the most able, learned and skillful physicians of this age, besides he is a most genial and fascinating man and as brilliant as a star.

Stomach and Catarrh.

J. H. Tucker, aipromlnerit farmer of Lebanon, Conn.j said "Dr. R. 0.

stomach and bowel trouble, totref her with aggravated chronic catarrh and nervous prostration. I was in absolute despair when 1 visited Dr. Flower. I had been disappointed by doctors in their vain attempts to cure me. No sooner did I begin Dr. Flower's treatment tliad I began to improve: my cure seemed miraculous. Look at me: I am in the finest of health 1 owe it all to him. And that is not all. Dr. Flower told me my troubles when I visited him without asking me a question, better than 1 oould have told him."

MaJl| »aut Tumor.

Mrs. A. T. Lougley, SOI Massachusetts avenue, N. E., Washington, I). C., said: "Eight years ago Dr. 1!. C. Flower, of Boston, cured me of malignant tumor of womb and ovary after all kinds of treatments and operations had failed. He stopped the hemorrhages and removed these eating growths without pain and without the knife. Her husband, A. T. Longlcy, the superintendent of government seed department, said lie knew of other cures equally wonderful.

A ltheumaUc Miracle.

Mrs. J. B. Shrier, Jr., SI Spring street, Charleston, S. C., said: I can truly say that by the skill of Dr. R. C. Flower I escaped a most horrible death. I had had rheumatism for eight years, but lately it developed chalky joints. I was informed after being treated by the leading physicians of this city, that there was no cure for my disease, and that amidst great suffering 1 would gradually turn to stone. Besides my continual suffering I was helpless, had but little use of any of my limbs, was suffering from insomnia and nervous prostration. In other words, 1 was a helpless, ruined and abandoned wreck. In this condition I was taken, to see Dr. 11. C. Flower during one of his visits to Savannah. Under his treatment I began to improve immediately, and to-day I can walk as fast and well as anyone use my limbs freely the swelling in my joints has disappeared: 1 sleep well my nerves are strong, and my cure is considered by all my friends as a miraculous escape from death.

From Helplessness to Perfect Health. Hutson Lee, tl.e well-known insurance man of Charleston, S. C., said: "My oldest son was restored by Dr. R. C. Flower from helplessness to the perfect use of his limbs after the best physicians iu our country had failed to give him the slightest relief."

A Miracle.

Mrs. J. I). Clark, of Jonesboro. Ga.. sa'.d: "I had a supposed incurable spinal trouble, double curvature, besides other serious and almost fatal troubles, a woman helpless ill braces aud oh crutches. The most prominent physician in Atlanta had treated me, the hospitals had had me for treatment, and they had all given me up as incurable. In this helpless, suffering and dying condition I was taken to Dr. Flower,wlieu almost, as by magic, he restored me to perfect health. I don't pretend to say how he did it, but he did it."

Cancer ot tlie Tongue.

Mrs. E. A. Seiling, avenue and Twenty-seflfend street. ialveston, Tex., said: "When I first consulted Dr. 11. C. Flower of Boston, I was suffering from a terrible cancer of the tongue, and had given myself up to die, but in a few months Dr. Flower entirely cured me. I am perfectly well to-day. Everybody who knew my condition look upon my cure as a miracle. Dr. Flower is the most wonderful physician and wonderful man I ever knew. Go into his presence and you feel his power."

Fungus I.ivor.

Joel Huey, President of the First National Bank of Corsicana, Texas, said: "Dr. R. C. Fowler is the most wonderful physician I ever knew, He cured me of a fungus cancerous condition of the stomach and liver after numerous physicians had failed to help me and I had been given up to die."

The above testimonials are from many of the most prominent, wealthy and influential men and women of this country. They calmly and deliberately say that Dr. R. C. Flower cured them after they had been given up to die, and that if it had not been for Dr. Flower they would have beeu in their graves. They represent all kinds of business, all professions, all positions of prominence, and nearly all sections of the country. The testimony of one is the testimony of all, proving Dr. R. C. Flower's almost supernatural power iu curing the sick, and that his practice girdles the world.

Dr. Flower has established a congress or staff of physicians and is establishing a physician in every State in the Union. These staff physicians are the most skilled and able men (regardless of their school). These staff physicians examine -patients, arrange for their treatment and send a. written diagnosis of each case to Dr. R. C. Flower. From that time on they are under Dr. II. C. Flower's care, the same as if the doctor had personally examined them himself. Thus Dr. Flower's patients can be examined and re-examined as needed by skilled pliycians who are in close touch and communication with the doctor's practice. Dr. Flower spares no expense in making the cure of his patients absolute and complete.

Those wishing to know more of Dr. R. C. Flower, by sending two 2-cent stamps to the Flower Medical Company, 559 Columbus avenue, Boston, Mass., will receive Dr. Flower's new work, entitled, "Dr. Flower iu the Sick Room."
