Typhoifi T«vct. Typhoid is now admitted by all scientists to be caused by a venom microbe that swarms by the million in the tissues Of the small intestines, producing fever, delirium, extreme prostration, putfifaction and death. The medical profession has earnestly sought a reliable antidote for this mortal plague and found none. Hence it is a bold, an almost startling claim, (a claim never before dared to be made for any remedy,) that Brazilian Balm, alone, will positively cure Typhoid

roar about the thing as in former days. The enthusiasm was lacking and the hoys were shy. There is something wrong with democracy

this year.

TYPHOID BACILLUS. Fever in any stage. This great discovery was the result of a woman’s faith. Mrs. L. B. Bradway, of Wilmington, Del., believed the Balm would do almost anything. Hence she gave it in 5 drop doses, every three to five minutes, to a young lady in the last stage of Typhoid, the had been given up by the doctor, who said she could not live half an hour. To the surprise of all she quickly revived and recovered. Since then it has been used by- laymen, nurses and physicians with uniform success. How ft cures was then a mystery; but it is now fully settled that "it promptly destroys every Typhoid bacillus in the system. It staunches the hemorrhage, heals the whole alimentary track, and, instead of the slow, tedious convalescence, resto-es to health and strength wi.h surprising rapidity.

letters Wood is alleged to have vio lated both of thete statutes.” David Davis, one of the attorneys for Will Wood, said today: “Jackson’s letters, which were reproduced by Wood from memory, were not written for any esnecial purpose, but at mv own request, as I thought they would guide

us in our work.”

“Are there any other original letters written by Jackson now in existence which have not been turned over to die police?" he was asked. “None whatever, to my knowledge, excepting Die one turned over to Mayor • aldwell the day after Wood’s arrest." "Do you place implicit confidence in Wood’s story as related by him to you?’ “Most assuredly. I do. From his manner I think lie bus told me the

truth.”

“Is Wood now ready for the trill?” “He is, and I think that lie will have no trouble in proving Ins innocence and securing his acquittal.” “Will Wood be used as a witness for the State?” “That I cannot answer. Mayor Blackburn and I have both been in Greencastle, and I thick that when the time comes we can produce a witness, whose name I do not care to mention, who will prove that Jackson admitted his intimacy with Pearl Bryan. This man advised Jackson to marry the girl, bill thD Jackson refused to do.” “Will this witnes- go to Kentucky to

testify ?”

“1 can t say, but if Will Wood is indicted at Greencastle I have every assurance that he will testify in Wood’s

behalf.”

Davis stated that in his opinion Wood has told everything, and, although public sentiment is against him in the three states, he will finally be acquitted. Dr. Gilhspie, of Greencastle, a second cousin of Pearl Bryan, says that he never saw any of Scott Jackson's letters to Wood alter tl e holidays. Those he saw did not contain anything about the girl. Kx-Manager A. E. Early has written from New Madison, O , to the effect that Will Wood showed him a letter in which Jackson advised Wood to Pearl Bryan certain treatment to bring about the de sired result. Early says that Wood did not say whether lie would follow t he advice or not.

At once the fellow who had alighted from the train began to stammer, and tried to not recognize hD acquaintance. The Anderson fellow a-ked « few commonplace questions and made some casual remarks about the murder, which see ned to the more confuse the fellow, hut the manner in which lie shifted the package, which resembled a hat box, from one hand to the other and kept edging away was the more remarkable.
