"Saved Her Life."

RS. JOHN WALLET, of Jefferson, Wis., than whom none Is more highly esteemed or widely known, writes. In 1S90 1 had a severe attack of LaGrippe and at the end of four months, in spite of all physicians, friends and pood nursing could do, my lungs heart and nervous system were so completely wrecked, my life was despaired of, my friends giving me up. 1 could only sleep by the use of opiates. My lungs and heart pained me terribly and my cough was most aggravating. I could not lie In one position but a short time and not on my left sida at all. My husband brought me Dr. Mil.is' Nervine and Heart Cure and I began taking them. When I had taken a half bottle of each I was much better and continuing persistently I took about a dozen bottles and was completely restored to health to the surprise of all." Dr. Miles Remedies are sold by all druggists under a positive guarantee, first bottle benefits or money refunded, book on diseases of the heart and nerves free. AdJress, 'Dr. Z N Miles' 4 Health DR.

There are 532 cases of leprosy in the United States, ten of them in Chicago. Senator Quay has about come to the conclusion that there is one plum on the tree he can't shake off. A mail package was transmitted from Juneau, Alaska, to New Jersey in 1 1 days, said to be the quickest transit on recoid. The secretary of war and the mil- . itary committees of the senate and house of representatives are going on a month's visit to inspect Cuba and Porto Rico. The rank of admiral is to be revived in order to confer the same on Rear Admiral Dewey, and the time of his retirement will be extended ten years. John Sherman thinks that all the army officers connected with the "embalmed-beef" scandal should resign. They will when somebody hits them on the solar plexus with an ax. The summer meeting of the Democratic State Editorial Association is to be held in the old historic town of Madison, down on the Ohio river. The meeting will be held about the middle of May. Henry Watterson says that democrats ought not to oppose the peace treaty. But then Henry is not in a position to advise democrats. His ad vice is only a morsel for the By-num-Palmer-Buckner brigade. At the special election Saturday in one of the Pennsylvania senatorial districts, Quay's man was unmercifully snowed under. This will doubtless have an influence on the legislature, as it shows the tenor of the public mind. Quay is certainly doomed for defeat. The elections in Ireland have been a complete revolution. Hack drivers, draymen, tailors, printers and men in every walk in life w ere elected to important municipal offices. This is an every-day matter in this country, but heretofore unheard of in Ireland, and the result is shaking up that has opened the eyes of the old timers. The Indianapolis Sun makes the

following comment; Two men who

are always at sword's points in the senate are Drummond of Plymouth, and Hubbell of Elkhart, who sit on opposite sides of the house. It is

doubtful if they have ever voted on the same side of a question. Both are able men, 'ind Drummond of the minority, is just about the leader of his side. These men are destined to fight it out after the' leave the sen ate, for each is after the congressional nomination in district 13. Drummond is said to have the dem ocratic nomination as good as eu ch ed, and Hubbell will mnke a big fight to land the republican honor. Speaking of the defeat of the bill holding counties responsible for the acts of lynchers, the Indianapolis News indulges in these observations: "Indiana, 37th in size in the Union, ranks amon the first four or five states in wealth, power, production and attainments. Like so much in this world she seems, also compounded of opposites, and there is another side of her that has been a byword and a reproach from the beginning; a side that in late years has gradually been becoming less pronounced, fading into forgetfulness; but which, alas! is sadly emphasized by the horrible mob murders perpetrated of late, and by si'ch action of the state's legislature as that which killed the anti-lvnching bill. Now that the subject has been called up the obli gation on us is increasingly great that we should go on record as will ing to do any and everything in our power to blot out this crime and shame. It will not do for gentle men to say that such a proposition is a reproach to the state. If it is not a reproach to Ohio and Kansas and to other states, it is not a reproach to us." Harry It. Ault Iie. The following is clipped from a Cleveland paper and will interest a number hen who were acquainted with the deceased: "Died, at the home of his parents, M. F. and Harriet M. Ault, at No. 44 West Herman street, Mr. Harry lielden Ault Hged 37 yearb, 7 months, and 24 days. He was married to Miss Annie McCleary, of Cadiz. O -tober 19, 1891, aDd lived in Canal Dover the greater part of his life. For fifteen month9 past he and his wife have lived with his parents in this city, being ill the greater part of the time. During the last f w weeks of his illness, knowing that his disease was incurable, he expressed a desire to make preparation for the change he knew awaited him. At his rtqnest Rev. Dr. L. A. Hanke, of 'he First Methodist Epipccpal Church, and R v. Giles 11. Dunning, of Bethany Presbyterian Church, called upou and ministered to him spiritually, thus enabling him to find comfort and a willingness to go. On Friday morning at 7 o'clock he passed away peacefully without a struggle, trusting in the Savior. His remains weie taken to Canal Dover, his former home, and laid to rest with those of his lriend8 who have gone before." This is a double load of sorrow for his mother as her sister died but a short time since. Presbyterian Trustees Surprised. When the trustees of the Presbyterian church, according to their custom, met at Theo. Cressner's office Friday night, they found a note on his desk stating that he was indispoeed, and requesting them to come to his residence. Repairing thither, they transacted what business was on hand and were about to leave when they were asked to step into an adjoining room. "Here," said Mr. Cressner, "I have something to show you." The spectacle was an unexpected one for they beheld their wives, and Rey. Thornberry and wife, who had assembled by invitation. To one side eat a delightful spread, laden with all of the delicacies which palate could desire. It was certainly a complete surprise and the host is to be com plimented on the clever manner in which he effected it. It Weichs One Pound. Miehawaka, Feb. 3. There was born to the wife of Noble Austin in this city the smallest infant ever reported in Northern Indiana. The little one is about the size of an incandescent electric light globe and weighs one pound. The physician, an old practitioner, says it will live. City Treurer" Tax Fee. Senator Agnew has introduced a bill in the senate which provides that in all cities having a population less than 20000 inhabitants the city treasurer shall receive 6 per cent, on all delinquent taxes cellected by him. This is to be in addition to the salaries allowed him by the common council.

GROUND HOG DAT.

A Resolution Fixing Upon Feb. 2 a Day to Celebrate. The following resolutions were introduced in the house yesterday, adopted and referred, on suggestion of Mr. Eichhorn, to chairman Downey and Shideler of the democratic and republican caucuses, respectively, because the baldness of their heads indicate early piety: "Whereas, great confusion and uncertainty now exists in the minds of the people at large as to the proper day to be observed as 'ground hog day now therefore, in order that this question shall be settled and set at rest, be it resolved by this house, the senate concurring. "That the 2d day of February is hereby fixed and declared to be the original 'ground hog day' and the one to be observed by the people; "That the same shall be and remain for ail time a legal holiday, and that all persons are hereby forbidden from observing the 1st day of February of any year or any other day as 'ground hog day,' except such as may entertain conscientious scruples upon such subjects; "That all citizens, including his majesty, the ground bog, be forever forbidden to wander from home or engage in dress parade on such day; "That a copy of these resolutions be furnished Sir Hog' with our admonition that he ttrictly observe the same, both he and his posterity, even unto the latest generation." Says That it 1 a Canard. And now comes Col. Sam Poorman and anent the much printed story to the effect that the "Immortal J. N." had his reason dethroned on account of a lawsuit, and Bays that it is all a canard, and that to the Colonel's positive knowledge Jacob N. Free never was a lawyer at all. The story was in effect that Free defended a m3n in Cincinnati for murder, and believing in his innocence, made so stirring an appeal to the jury, that they acquitted the prisoner. After the trial the acquitted man confessed bis absolute guilt to "J. N." and as the tale goes, the shock was too much for the lawyer, and he went crazy. Rut the Colonel has destroyed the entire fabric at one blow. He lived in Tiffin with Mr. Free, and ought to know. Shot Iii Hand. Thursday morniDg Otto Platts acci dentally sent a load of buckshot through the palm of his band. He was hunting rabbits around his father's farm, four miles south of this city, and was carrying the gun, loaded and cocked, when the accident occurred. He probably brushed the trigger against his clothes but he has no distinct remembrance concerning any of the preliminaries. The young man is but 15 years old but he bore up under the pain and blood bravely. The hand received the attention of a physician and shows signs of immediate convalescence. National Guard Keorganixatlon Bill. The senate committee on military affairs, at its meeting Tuesday night decided to report favorably on Senator Gilbert's bil for the reorganization of the National Guard, to divide the state into regimental districts: to increase tne annual ap rophation from 815,000 to 8100,000. and to pay a per diem to each ollicer and soldier for attendance at drills. The committee also acted favorably ou Senator Horner's bill providing for the burial of all Union veteran soldiers at the expense of the state. Tricked the Defaulting Groom. One of Laporte's prominent young men did not turn up at Kingsbury at the time appointed for his marriage to a lady of that place, although every preparation had been made. The expected groom sent a note saying he was unavoidably detained and the girl's big brother went to ascertain the cause and found him with another woman. The Laporte young man received one of the severestof threshings atthe big brother's hands. The girl should thank her stars that she escaped marying such a cur. Hen llur Dance. Friday night the social set of the Hen llur fraternity gave another of their dances. Fifteen or twenty couples were present and held the floor until nearly twelve o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. James McDonald furnished the music and it was of a superior sort. The occasion was on par with similar ones which have gone before. In two weeks it is their intention to give a cake walk. It will, without doubt be a grand affair. Lapaz Items. The Crescents, of the hi.h school, gave an entertainment to a well pleased audience Friday afternoon. The following persons are sick: Orval Shock, Mrs. Sam Lowe, Mrs. Godron Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Thomas, Hev. Mr. Ilarpf r and wife, Mrs. Whiteman, Ned Manning, II. T. Johnston, Mrs. Frank Davenport, Mr. Hunger, Wm. Redman, Mr 8. Leroy Pratt, Mrs. A. Hash, Miss Hertha Zeots, Mr. Hondurant and Miss Gertie Laupe. Some lively bouts were witnessed Wednesday evening by the visitors at the athletic hall. It is rumored that there is scarlet fever in the vicinity of Teegarden. As the cases have not been reported to the board of health It is no doubt untrue.
