COLEBROOK,

The liquor excitement had hardly
died out when news reached town
that IL party Of ten rivernen. had made
an. assault upon John Heath, who
lives near Diamond Pond in Stew.
artstown, injuring him quite severely,
and ransaclling the house, carrying
away what poor liquor they could
find. AS soon as the facts became
known Deputy Sheriff LeavItt, with
some toUeRty-niRe assistants, started
out to find the men, they having. left
for the logging camp, some ten miles
distant through the woods. The
company started from here Friday
afternoon, and after travelling until two
o'clock, Saturday morning, through
the woods they struck their camp
and found all but one Of the men
they wanted, and brought them safe
ly out. We have made very careful
injuries in regard to this natter, and
find tina it happened about US fol.
lows: On Tuesday, April 22nd the
rivermen started from this place to
90 on to Diamond stream to work.
When they got to Heath's they called
for some dinner. While it was being
prepared the men bought and drank
liquor of Heath. They state that they
drank three times before dinner, some
Of them getting to feel pretty well.
After part Of them had finished their
dinner, and while others were eating,
u difficulty arose between Heath and
one Of the men, which ended. by
Heath striking the man on the head
with a chair and knocking him down.
When he got up he started for that
"heathen Chinee" while a boy Of
Heath's started for q gun, and the
old woman for Il teapot full of boil
ing tea. One Of the men got hold of
Heath and was jerking him around
when the old lady threw the hot tea
down his neck. The boy meanwhile
leveIed the gun at one Of the men
who jumped anil took 1t and broke TO-
up. The boy then went into the shed
and got Il pistol and fired at one Of
the men. His hand WAS slrack un
just in time to prevent the ball from
taking effect. Meanwhile the old Ia
dy was not idle, tor after she had
emptied the teapot she raised II
stick Of wood to strike one Of the
men; the blow which WAS II good one
missed the man it was aimed at hit
ting her husband in the side Of lie
head, laying him out in good style.
Some of the men interfered and pre-
vented any further trouble. After
taking what rot gut Heath hal, they
started for the camp. The men stat
that Heath had been drinking and
was noisy and troublesome, AMI tried
to ''pick up It row" with them. They
also state that he has sold them
liquor several times this winter and
that Of the neaneSt quality. The eX-
animation will he held Monday Tie
2Sth, ard we will endeavor to give
a report Of the result next week.

symptoms of Catarrh.


Obstruction of nasal passages, discharge
falling into throat, sometimes profuse, watery,
acrid, or thick and tenacious, mucous, purI-
lent, bloody, putrid, offensive, etc. In others
dryness, weak or infamed eyes, ringing IN
ears, deafness, alterations, seabs from ulcers,
voice altered, nasal twang, offensive breath,
impaired smell and taste, etc. Few only OF
above symptoms likely to be present in any
case at one time.
To cure-take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery earnestly, to correct the blood and
system, which are always at fault, also to act
specifically, as it does, upon the diseased
glands and lining membrane of the nose and
its communicating chambers. The more see
of this odious disease, the more positive is my
belief that if we would make treatment per
fectly successful in curing it. we must use con
Statationa1 treatment to act through the blood
as well as a soothing and healing local applica-
ton. DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, when used
warm and applied with DIR. Pierce's Nasal
Douche, effects cures upon " common sense, :
rational and scientific principles, by its mild
soothing and healing properties, to which the
disease gradually yields, when the system has
been put in perfect order by the use of the
Golden Medical Discovery. This is the only
perfecly safe, scientific and successful mode
of acting upon and healing it.
So successful has the above course of treat
ment proven that the proprietor offers $500
reward for case he cannot cure. All the
means sold by Druggists. r. V. Pierce, NJ
