Howard, the twenty one year o'd son of Mr - and Mrs Byron Hendricks was drowned Tuesday afternoon while fishing iif the St. Mary’s riVer at the innith of Borum Run. He was seated in a boat and in some- unaeconutable way fell overboard, although it is believed by his friends that he fell during a lit, to which he was sub feet, but as nobody was near at the time it will probably never be known how it did occur. In falling he caught his left leg on the edge of the boat and was hanging head downward when discovered by a siiii of Henry Logerman. He immediately eajled to his father aiid together they raised the iinl'ortun ate young man -out of the water and laid him in the boat. Coroner Clark was immediately summoned who ordered the body taken to the undertaking establishment of L. \ ager where an jnqnespwas held. His verdict will undoubtedly be Hint he came t. > his death b’y accidental drowning. The I'nneial took place this tnonilng at ten o’clock at the Union Chapel.

A transfer of real estate was made in Jefferson township a few days ago whereby Daniel Yane.v transferred to J.

Two candidates were enlightened in the mysteries of the order and the degree team of Et Wayne lodge performed the work. Visitors wen* present from Ft. Wayne, Portland, Geneva and Monroeville. Never before has our city sheltered such a handsome array of the fair sex, and we earnestly believe that the hand Mimest ladies in each of these cities wen* chosen to represent their re spective lodges. After the initiation all lodge formalities weie laid ' aside and the fair quests paitook of good t kings to eat. A huge time was had b\ everybody present. An iinsiiccesst ill attempt was : made on Tuesday '.light to burn an j ice house in the west end. belong [ing to N Mentzer. Kerosene oil ‘ had been applied in several places but forborne cause it refused to burn. Tin* work is done by home talent "without any doubt, but what reason they cm have for de st roving piopertv caniiiit lie under stood. We have been reliably informed that an organization has bedh perfect! d by west end citi zens to detect the culprits whoever they may be and prosecute them to th(*/uilest extent of the laxv. This is not the only depri'iTation that has.been committed in the west end, as several attempTs at robbery have been made, but cacti time the robbers were scared away without any plunder, and in one ease it is known t hat tlie iiffenders are mere boys ranging in ags from ten to fifteen years. On Monday night parties tried to force an euentra'ice in Everett, Hite N Co’s, west end grocery but tailed. On last Sunday morning while John Stonebiirner and family were at tending the dedication of the 31. E. church, two boys broke open a back window and entered the house, but weia* Lightened away without getting any plunder. To the guilty parties we desire to give a warning, unless you desist jin this nefarioiis pract lee \on w 111 . find yourself in the strong clutches ' of the law.

And yet thousands of women are so .afflicted. In spite of all they can do this continues to grow worse, or at least grow no better. Tooth-brushes and breath perfume seem of no avail. The reason of their failure is. in the majority of cases at least, they do not know the cause of their trouble. Per-

haps the most trequenr cause of unpleasant breath is catarrh. The in,’animation of tin- mucous membrane of moech -and throat cfiseolors the -feeth, coats the tongue, causes Ihe lips lo become harsh ami sore, ami imparts a .more or less disgreeable odor to the breath. Such a-eondition must bi* an extreme annovance to the women whose instincts are naturally dainty; and she would do anything in her power to overcome it. To all such women, the word that Pe-ru-na will absolutely cure catarrh, will therefore be good news. Pe-ru na. bv removing the catarrh, sweetens the breath and causes healthy secretions to take the places of the irritating oijes which have been the cause of so much discomfort. The teeth are easily cleaned and the effects of a brisk brushing remain. The tongue resumes its natural color and the unhealthy coating disappears. Catarrh of the stomach is also often the cause of foulbreat h. Pe-ru-na cures catarrh wherever located. <A book of 64 instructively illustrated pages on catarrh, of which Dr. Hartman is author, will be sent free to any address for a short time by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Compatiy.

April IT—Those who are inn postion to know say that during hi-trip on rhe Dolphin President McKinley was enabled to give several hours of uninterrupted study to the Cuban question, and from this lie evolved a general policy, which involves sooner or later the recognition of the Cubans as insurgents, and then the use of the good office of the United States to bring ? about a peace with honor both to Spain and Cuba. President .McKinley stands willing to pledge the credit of the United States in behalf of rhe insurgents if’Spain will voluntarily concede rheir independence. It is known that rhe insurgent chiefs are today willing to bind themselves as far as they can t<v~pay Spam a reasona ble proportion’ of the expenses of the war on condition of the island being made independent.
