desire as an unsolicited tribute to the merits of
Helmbold's Buchu, and for the benefit Of those
similarly afflicted as myself to say that after con-
sulting many eminent physicians, and trying
nearly all the best advertised remedies in the vain
hope OF finding relief from aggraysting kidney
and bladder diseases, from which have suffered
excessively for many years, good fortune finally
suggested to me Helmbolds Buchu, which COM
menced using with little faith, and no apparent
beneficial results for about month. At the eIpi-
ration OF that time, however, / thought COM
menced to experience slight relief, which encou-
ragged me to persevere in It's use, and now, at the
expiration of four months, although am an In
firm old man, nearly seyenty-eight years OF age,
and consequently medicines cannot be expectedto
fayorably effect me Is they otherwise would.
have found such unspeakable relief and perma-
nent benefit from Mr. Helmbold's valuable dts
coyery that feel ought publicly to record the
fact. as On acknowledgment to him aud valuable
suggestion TO the public.

Last Friday morning an oflcer OF the Thirtieth
precinct arrested a man named Michael Ryan. on
suspicion of burglary In the prisoners possession
on being searched was found bit brace, q screw
driver and o tle. He was questioned with regard
to the manner In which he came by these tools, and
stated In response that before coming this city he
worked in saw mills at Morristown, N. j., and in
several towns throughout Pennsylvania. He wore
linen coat when arrested, on the breast OF which
were red spots which On closer examination looked
very much as If they had been made by mans
HANDS COVERED WITH BLOOD
There was evidently an effort made 10 obliterate
the marks by washing ana then ironing. but with
poor success. The prisoner was taken before JUS
t1ce McQuade, at the Harlem Police Court, where
the foregoing facts were related In due form, and
with the greatest secrecy, to his Honor. The magis
trate thought the looked somewhat suspicious,
and at the instance OF the officer Ryan was COM
mtted on suspicion OF burglary TO await further de-
velOpments. The Oflicer who made the arrest
tname not known) went with his captain TO
police headquarters and gave full account
OF the case 10 the authorities there. When they had
seen the coat and thought OF where Ryan had
worked their Joy knew no bounds, and tney con.
fessed without reserve that this clue The best
they mad yet unearthed regarding the Nathan mur-
der. Ryan was Immediately sent Tor and
BROUGHT BEFoRE JOuRDAN
and his detectives TO undergo an examination, to
winch that young Kelly mad to submit TO at the
hands OF Fellows. Rollins, Field Co. was not a
comparison. The result seemed to be satisfactory to
certain extent, for the oiicer who had made the
arrest and others despatched 10 the different
places In which Ryan had worked 10 ferret out some
clue, Ii possible, about
THE MYSTERIOUS ''DoG,0
as wei as TO discover all about Ryan himself. To
assist them in This rather difficult task the ''sus-
pect's" photograph was taken for their use. Ryan
was then returned TO the custody or the keeper OF
the Harlem Police Court prison, where he now Is
awaiting the result OF the detectives Investigations
The foregoing facts have been obtained from
A RELIABLE SOURCE
and are as far as informant is concerned, cor
rect in every particular. The prisoner Is a man
about fifty years OF age, very nearly, II not quite
