Special Dispatch to the Palladium. Richmond, Indiana, July 8. Word comes from Denver, Colorado, that Dr. W. A. Shepard, who announced at Elgin, Illinois, a year or more ago, that he had developed a successful treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis, is creating a great sensation in that city by the great success he is attaining in the treatment of that dreaded disease. Hundreds of letters are received at his offices from all parts of the country from people -seeking information as to his methods. Dr. Shepard anounced boldly when he began treating consumption in Colorado, that cl:mate alone did not effect permanent cures, but only aided in arresting the progress of the disease, so that the patient's lives wereprolonged.and that whenever they went into a low altitude where the air was damp, the disease would return within a few weeks or months at most. His claim that after patients had used his treatment for a time they could return to altitudes of the eastern and middle states and by its continuance become permanently well, was strongly disputed by physicians in general. But the Doctor, confident of the result, continues to send his patients to their homes in the var ous parts of the country, after a few months' treatment, where the improve ment goes steadily on. Dr Shepard explains this by demonstrating that by the use of a simple instrument, invented and used by him in his treatment, the benefknil effect of hiffh altitude is produced and all the air eelis not destroyed are developed into healthy activity, and the disease is finally entirely eLminated by the direct-application of his remedies to the diseased parts, and so, after years spent by some of the most eminent physicians of this country and Europe in research along so-called eciectific lines, developing serum and other like treatments to be inj-icted into the blood, in vain hope of finding a cure, it remained for the obscure town of Elgin, Illinois, to furnish a man from the rank and tile of the general prach tioners,' with a mind schooled in the practical in medieine to give to the world the most successful treatment for pulmonary phthisis yet known to man.

CUBA GENERAL SIIAFTERS TROOPS LANDING AT DAIQUIRI. F.'oh HARPERS WEEKLY. T. de Tlmlstrnp Rcproilm-r d from JT.trprr W.-rklg. By Permission. C'opvrhrht fv Harpi-r & Brotliers.

A DESERTER CKEDITI:1 TO HlCHMOND WHICH WK DONT DESEKVK. Daniel O. Oliver a Deserter Caught at Ft. Wayne Said to be From Here But no One Knows Him. Richmond has a deserter credited to her that we are willing to deny belonsrs to her of right. The article which apI pears below was foiyad in the Indi anapolis papers this morning and an investigation was begun to see whether the person mentioned belonged here and it was found that no such name as several of the factories being asked said no such man had ever been hired by them. In the list of thoe mustered in by Captain Black r.o such name was . credited to Richmond, so we believe he does not belong here. The way the mistake originated is probably due to the fact that a Mrs. M, F. Sliver sent a dispatch from here yesteiday but this lady also went immediately to Indianapolis. The following is the dispatch in question: David S. Oliver of Richmond en listed about a month ago in the heavy artillery of the regular army and was assigned by Captain Blaek to duty at Fort Pickens, Florida. After a short experience with army life he sickened of his new calling and finding a favor able opportunity took i rench leave of the camp and made his way to this state again. For several weeks nothing was heard from him, until yesterday Captain Blaek was notified of his arrest by the Fort Wayne police in that city. It seems the gravity of the offense worked on the man's mind, and as the limit of time drew near within which he could return to duty and escape the extreme penalty now in force for desertion in time of war, he finally decided to give himself up, and did so. He will be held at Fort Wayne until an officer can be detailed to take him back to his regiment. Acting Adjutant Barr of Chicago telegraphed Captain Blaek yesterday that no men were available for guard duty from that place, and the war depattment was asked to send a guard from the Columbus, Ohio, barracks to take him. His mother, Mrs. M. F. Oliver, is now at her home in Richmond, and yesterday sent a telegram asking particulars cf the affair and what time he would be taken back to his regiment for trial. The maximum penalty for his offense is shooting, and the minimum is one year imprisonment. NOT HERE, CAPTAIX S3IITH HAS NOT Y" 12 r CO SI E O V IZ It. To Enlist Those Twelva Msn Notes From the Camp at Indlantpolls The Rejsoled Bo8 Horns. Captain Smith of Company E, 161st Regiment Indiana Volurjteer Infantry, that is of Richmond's company at Camp Mount was expected back here yesterda3 to enlist men to fill up the quoto of his company male short by the rejection of some, but so far he has not put in an appearance. The reason he did not come yesterday is probab'y because he was officer of the day and the answer for his not coming today is the following statement in this morning's Indiana! olis Journal: In spite of statements to the contrary, there are plenty of men in camp and the probabilities are there will be a hundred of those now on the grounds who ill have to be sent home. Yes terday's ration report showed every company to be full and 100 men to spare, exclusive of the colored companies. This will allow quite a number of rejections. From this the conclusion is warrant ed at least that Captain Smith has filled his company at Indianapolis. The boys who were rejected most of them came home last night. It develops that the statements as to the

stringency of the physical testtiify were put to were not in the least exaggerated. Lafe Painter was threw, out for being a quarter of an inch below the required height. Bob Badcr was a little too light for his height and was rejected. He may, however, gt t back still, at least influence is beiibrought to bear to have him reinstall i. Such like trivial causes were assign! in the case of most of the rejections J Lieutenant Waterman, in wnoJe hands rests the entire matter of swe?;.?ing the men into the federal service, has fixed tomorrow as the time for this, and the state is in duty bound to have its organization reay for tLe muster at that time. So if the pany is to be mustered tomd ow Captain Smith surely has his quot The appointment of Captain ' t Bundy as major is causing somen ri-

XOTES. It now seems probable that tie flaiv presented to our local company will be the regimental colors of the 161st. It is stated that the men will get their equipment tomorrow. Thompson Starr of this city was yesterday swern into the federal service as sergeant-major of the 161st. One. of the corporals in the company did not want to go very bad, so when it came time for his examination he passed in everything but for one finger, the index of nis right hand from which he had lost the end. He was asked to take a gun and pull the (riper and asked if that hurt Lis finger and to get out he said yes. He hurriedly made his escape from cwnp or, as one of the fellows said, they would have carried him out on a rail. Joe Thompson who was rejected in the examination was retained as company cook. One of the rejected boys expressed his sorrow by saying he hated to leave for they had "a good time, good officers, good ' xd and plenty of sleep." MARGARET SCHULTZ, A Prominent Friend, Died Yes terday at Charlottesville. Mrs. Margaret . Schultz, of Charlottesville, Indiana, who was well known and influential in the Indiana Yearly Meeting of Friends, died yesterday at her home in Charlottesville, Indiana. The funeral will occur to morrow morning as 9 o'clock at her h me. Interment and service at 10:30 Mrs. Schultz was on nearly all of the prominent committees of the Indiap Yearly Meeting and has s host of friends here. Those wishing to attest; the funeral can go over - tomorrow morning at 6:20 and return tomorrow afternoon at 3:40. GLORIOUS DEATH. Charles Harris of Cambrldgs Cii Killed at Santiaga. Cambridge City has the sad honor of having one of, if not the first, Wayne county boy to give up his life for his country in the fiht before Santiago. One year ago Charles Harris of Cambridge City was mustered into the regular army, and now his name appears among the killed.

HARWELL AGAIN.

AXOT1IE1E CHAPTER IX THE 1 NOTED CASE. t j Lie Broke Open a Trunk in His i Brother's House and Stole the I DeecU to the Property Ilia Sis ter- in-Law Writes a Letter May Yet be Brought Back to This City. The famous Harwell case, which attracted so much attention in this city anu throughout the state about a year and a half ago, has not yet been closed and he has bobbed up again in a new light. A few dys ago a well known entlem an received a lengthy . letter i' ri ii ti r Tiiiin whr. hus band, ;t will be remembered, csmeto" this ' city and was instrumental in securing his release from jail and subsequently his admittance into a sanitarium in the south. It seems, however, that he did not long retnaiu in the sanitarium . and that he again went into the business of forging and obtaining money under false pretenses. The letter which was received in this city was from A tlanta, Georgia, and Mrs. Harwell denounces her preacher brother in law in the roundest terms. She says: "As for James Henry Harwell being insane, he never was, and he is just simply a rascal and one of the biggest in the country." She says that alter her husband had boi rowed money on his home to get J. H. Harwell out of prison, the latter went south and did the same thing that he did in this city. She says "J. H. Harwell broke open a trunk in my house during our absence and stole deeds and borrowed $500 on the place, on which he was to pay intereet twice a year and taxes. This he never did, and my husband paid all and a mortgage is on the place today. The house I now live in was sold last Tueeday right under mv eyes on account of Mr. Harwell failing to raise atid pay the money back. I have suffered much, also my family on account of tha rascal and I will not now keep another thing concealed thit he does and I wish that everyone kney him as he is known in the family and I have often wondered how he could face people to preach when he had such a black heart. "The rascal I think is now in Memphis, Tennessee, and I do wish some one would get him and send him to the chain gang the sooner the better for the entire family, and if some one does not expose hira to the bank where he forged money, 1 will, for I will not pat up with his rascality any longer. He is now scouting and scouring the country, hiding to keep from being found. He borrowed money of people here and also left forged checks, and Mr. Harwe 1 has paid out money until it has discommoded his family the necessities of living." "As to preaching, if I ever hear of his preaching, I will certainly let the people know who they sit under. He was turned out of every conference he has yet been in. I wish you would please tell the people what a rascal he is." S. C. Whitesell, who was Harwell's attorney while in this city, was seen by a Pall. dicm reporter this morning, but refused to say anjtbing regarding the above letter. It is understood, however, that there is a possibility of Harwell being returned to this city and made to stand tri 1 for forgery. Many persons during his trouble held that he was not t insane, but that he was one of the smoothest forgers that ever came to this part of the country. Those who were best acquainted with him claim that all is not yet known of his doings in this city and Cambridge City, and there are a number who would be glad to have him returned and convicted.

About thirty or forty of the members of the Richmond L. A. W. took a run last night down to the little school house on the Abington pike and there had a watermelon feast. Tbey also held a business meeting in which the president was empowered to appoint a reception committee whose duty it would be to arrange to have a number of our orders go down and meet the Cincinnati boys who come through on their wheels to attend the national meet at Indianapolis, as well as also to escort them a short ways toward their destination. The committee is also to be empowered to get a nice room in which to receive the members here and entertain them while they stay here. The dates set for the meet are the llth, 12th and 13th of next month, but there is also a two-day's business session immediately preceding the meet that is on the 9th and 10th, so it is very probable that the Cincinnati ridf rs will come here about the 10:h. The local president, Mr. Howard Dill, has not yet appointed the committee but will do so some time soon. Richmond will probably have three men entered in the races. They are Will Bradway, Charles Surrendorf and Elmer Smith. The local L. A. W. will go out for a
