TO ALL, PARTICULARLY INvALIDs.

Spring is a trying season. Indications of SICK
ness should at once be- attended to- Fatal diseases
may be caused by allowing the bowels to become
constpated and the system to remain in a disor
Gered condition, ntil the disorder has time to de-
veloD itself. An ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure, is an Old and truthful saying
Therefore we advise all who are troubled with the
complaints now very prevalent headache, indiges-
ton, disordered liver want of appetite, Nausea or
feverish skin, to. take, without delay, Schenck's
Mandrake Pills We know of no remedy so harnl-
less and decisive in its action. 1t at strikes
at the root of the disease and produces healthy
tone to the system People never need suffer from
any disease arising from disordered condition of
the liver If they would take this excellant medicine
when they feel the first indications of the maiady.
Families leaving home for the summer months
should take three four boxes of these pills with
them. They have an almost -instaneOus effect.
They VIII relieve the patient of headache in one OF
two hours, and will rapidly cleanse the liver Of
surrounding bile and will eifectually prevent 9
bilious attack. They are sold by all Druggist.

The Tollner Charges.
When the cemetery board invited iuves-
tiga ion iuto the charges made against
Superintendent Tollner The ARGUS pub
lished the same and urged, both through
its columns and personally by its reporter
here, the parties who had been so loud 10
their condemnation of Tollner. to make a
statement and sign their names thereto
and present it as the board requested.
Daniel Frazier, the informant, was urged
several times to come forward and sub
stantiate the charges which he had been
SO anxious to have published, and, al
though he promised to do SO. did not do
it. Every word published in THE ARGUS,
in regard to Tollner. was given by Fraz-
er, who said he would vouch for it. This
statement is made, merely to place the
responsibility where it belongs; and un-
less Mr.. Frazier does something to clear
the matter up, he is left in very unen-
viable position. The Union. of this morn
ing throws shadow on the action of
Messrs, Huntoon, Gould and Edwards.
1t says they have given Tollner splen-
did recommendation, and perhaps he
deserves it" Perhaps" is as much as
to say I'VE doubt it. Then the Union
says: Carefully as they claim to have
investigated the case no one ever demand
ed the name of the party making the
charges" Most certainly the board Of
directors did demand the name and proof
in an official publication in all the papers,
but the men who courdge0usty induced a
newspaper reporter TO bring their charges
before the public coeoardly hide from
publicly coming forward with their proof
when called en-, and by hiding behind a
/ fence Ieaue it to be inferred that the
charges were manufactured by the repor-
ter. They shall not hide. The Union
closes by saying that 1T looks as though
the charges would yet have to be investi
gated. as the names of witnesses have beer
handed in to the secretary of the board.

Jim wallaek, the Fraud.

That notorious dead beat, Jim Wallack,
after being exposed by the famous New
York actor, is catching it all over the west.
The Ioaoa State Leader lat Desmoines)
of the 18th says:
Our little analysis of Lemons is produc-
ing fruit. 1t has been the case and is so
yet to great extent, that all shows. bad
and Indifferent are puffed by the press of
Iowa, rather as matter of courtesy to
these travelling exhibitors than because
they reflect the morals or opinions of the
gentlemen who write the notices. Adroit
managers like Wallack will call upon the
editor, hand him cigar, make himself
generally agreeable, give lot of tickets,
and by these means ingratiate himself and
obligate the newspaper, or at least aim to
obligate it, to applaud or keep quiet, and
generally succeeds. But it is decidedly
wrong, and editors should bear 10 mind
| that they owe the community, ;heir friends,
patrons and neighbors a debt contracted
before this, and should save them the
cost, and in shows like this the humiliation
Of attending them.

New York, May I9-The World says:
"Some days since statement was made
that the Russian feet left this port in re,
sponse to request from Washington to
that effect. There is trustworthy authori-
ty for adding that this requf st was in the
form of an intimation from Secretary
Evarts to Grand Duke Alexis, Minister
Schisehkin and Admiral Bantakof that it
was the desire of the President that the
Russian vessels should not longer remain
in American waters, and that the state
department preferred to make this intima-
tion privately, hoping that it might thus be
spared the necessity of making the request
officially and formally from the state de-
partmeut The Russian commanders at
once made preparations to leave, and it is
mentioned as significant fact, in the same
connection, that although the Grand Duke

takoff attended the reception at ex-Gover-

short time, and rather consplcuously took
their departure before the arrival of the
