Unlimited Remedial Resources

People sometimes suppose that DR.. Pierce's
Family Medicines represent the entire extent of
resources for curing disease. This is an error.
Experience proved that while the Golden Medical
Discovery, Favorite Prescriptions, Pleasant Pur-
gative Pellets, Compound Extract of Smart-Wee
and DR.. Sages Catarrh Remedy, would if faithful
" used cure large variety of chronic complaint,
there would be here and there which, from
its severity, or from its complication with other
disorders would resist their action. These excep-
tional cases required thorough examination into
their symptoms, to ascertain the exact nature and
extent of the disease or diseases under which the
patient was laboring, and the specific remedies to
meet and overcome the same. This led to the
establishment of the Worlds Dispensary at Buffa-
To- n. Y, with its Faculty of Physicians and Sur
geons each of whom is skilled in the treatment of
chronic disorders in general and those belonging
to his own special department ia particular. To
one is assigned diseases Of the throat and lungs;
to another diseases of the kidneys and urogenital
organs to another, diseases of the nervous system;
and to another, diseases of the eye and ear. Thus
the highest degree of perfection in medicine and
surgery is attained. The establishment of this in
stituion enables the Doctor to meet q long felt
want in the treatment of the more severe chronic
affections BY careful consideration Of the SYM
toms as given in writing he successfully treats
thousands of cases at their homes. Others visit
the Dispensary in person. The ampest resources
for the treatment of lingering affections thus
place at the disposal of every patient, and those
on whom the proprietary medicines do not have
the desired effect can procure a more thorough
and efficient course by personal application to
the proprietor of the Worlds Dispensary.

another of the Indian humbugs of the frontier has
been exposed as the result of this expedition. II
the agencies at Red Cloud and Spotted Tail were
removed to the Missouri river, the predatory
bands which have infested the frontier would be
obliged to succumb, as they obtain their supplies
of war material, as well as information Of the
movements against them, from these points.
Chicago, March %. The following was re-
ceived at Gen. Sheridan's headquarters this morn
ing:
Fort Reno, March %. We cut loose from the
wagon train on the 18th inst. and secuted Tongue
and Rosebud rivers until satisfied that there were
no Indians upon them. We then struck across
the country toward Powder river. Gen. Rey-
nolds with part of the command pushed forward
on the trail leading to the village of Crazy Horse,
near the mouth of Little Powder river. This he
attacked and destroyed on the 18th inst, finding
it perfect magazine of ammunition, war mate
rails and general supplies. Crazy Horse had with
him the northern Cheyennes and some of the
Minnccouj ous-probaby one-ha!f of the Indians
of the reservation. Every evidence was found to
prove that these Indians were in copartnership
with those at the Red Cloud and Spotted Tail
agencies, and that the proceeds of their raids on
the settlements had been taken to these agencies
and supplies brought out in return.

Delalcation.

New York, March 25. There was much excite
ment in Brooklyn financial circles, to day, by the
announcement of defalcation in the Fulton
Bank. 1t amounts to $2i 900 or S25, 900, and was
discovered last Saturday. The criminal was dis
covered to be the receiving teller b, z. Rogers,
man in whom the officers of the bank had the ut
most confidence. Rogers is IS years of age; is
married.
lie came home last Saturday p. M, with bun
die unde, his ann, and going out, said to his
wife be would be back shortly. Soon after he
sent her note saying he was going to Bridgeport
and would be back in two or three days. The
following day she got note from him enclosing
$500 bill. The police claim to have clue; that
the defaulter is hiding in Maryland.
The rogue has never give way to intemperance
or extravaganza. The directors to-day issued a
card stating that the bank was in no way crippled
by the robbery. The bank is secured $4,000 by
Rogers bondsmen, and the loss cannot exceed
$25,0 900.
1t is now alleged B. z. Rogers, the Ascending
receiving teller of Fulton bank, BROOKLYN, de-
frauded the institution out Of about $4,000,
which is double the amount first stated. Detec-
tves are said to have traced Rogers to Knoxville,

KENTUCKY.
An Explanation.

Louisville, March 25. Gen. James A. Ekn
says that Gen. McCook never stated to him Off
cia!ly or otherwise that Thomas Il. Oh eney, clerk
in his office, had received a bride from contrac-
tor for fraudulently apprisng him of a competi-
tive bid, nor has he any knowledge of such report
having been made to the War department
Gen. Ekn is fully satisfied that Gen. McCook
is laboring under erroneous impression if he
made the statement telegraphed from Washing
ton, that his chief clerk had received brides Gen
Sherman and others were present when the bids
were opened and expressed qualification at the
satisfactory manner in which the business was
transacted.
In regard to house and lot said to have been
presented to Gen. Reynolds in Gen. McCook $
testimony, Gen. Ekin says he knows nothing of 1t
except what was reported at the time-that the
gift made by citizens eff Texas to Reynolds
in recognition of his services in their State and in
order to have him reside alN2ng them.

That Olde Song.

In compliance with request made in a recent
issue of the Daily Journal an obliging friend has
sent into our office an ancient, well bound volume
of 2l0 pages, entitled, "The Union Song Book, or
American Sky Lark" printed in Boston, for VIM.
Teston Clapp, No. IS Fish Street, in 1905, contain
ing the patriotic song composed by Robert Treat
Paine, Jr, a distinguished poet of his time, emit
lied "Adams and Liberty" We give it below in
full. As its title implies, it was composed during
the Presidency of the elder Adams, and evidently
in the interest of his administration which was as
sailed by the newly organized Anti-Federsl party,
which was conceived under Washingtons admin
istration, and opposing his successor succeeded
in defeating Adams collection. That party seems
to be severely alluded to in the third verse. The
eighth verse refers to the pseudo war with France
when Washington was recalled by Adams from
the shades of Mount Vernon, to take again the
command of the American armies. We thank
our friend for the loan of his book.
