MADISON COUNTY NOTES.
fMadiSonian, April 81

[Madisonian, April 81
The winter residents of Virginia are strik-
ing out for the mines, and preparing for the
summer campaign against the gravel banks.
Heavy losses of stock are reported from all
quarters, and from the poor condition of cat
tie now, it is thought by some that the end is
not yet.
1t is quite gratifying to note that mine-own-
ers are generally feeling the Importance Of
opening up their property. 1t now looks as
if there will be a large amount Of work done
in the quartz mines in the neiglborhood Of
Virginia this summer.
A letter from Dave O'Brien, of Pony, says:
Our mines here are looking frst-rate, and
everybody is hilarious at tie turn affairs are
taking, and the prospects of better times. Our
dark days are past, and you will see a second
Butte over here before long. McKaskle &
Co. have been putting on an extra force of
men, and are running day and night. They
have a big thing. The mills are going through
a thorough course of repairs, and will soon be
ready for spring work. / hear that some of
our quartz intend erecting concentra-
ting works at no distant day, which would
please "a gent from Idaho The Pony boom
is coming, and don't you forget it."

The Second Ward First in the Field.
Last evening in pursuance of notice
given, about 60 of the faithful met at the
Lancaster County house for the purpose
of organizing a campaign club in the in
terest of De Golyer Garfield and the
Credit Mobilier.
John ID. Skiles was chosen president
Ed. Edgerley, county register, and several
others were named vice presidents, F. r.
Diffenderffer treasurer, and Glen. Ken
nedy (who counted out Sammy Croft,
secretary.
VIM. d. Weaver, esq, was the orator of
the evening, and congratulated his hearers
on the defeat of Grant, Blaine and Sherman
and the consolidation of the party under
the broad banner of DE Golycr Garfield
and Custom House Arthur whose triunl-
phant success he predicted, because the
Democrats had no prominent candidates
to put against them. The De Golyerites
were by no means enthusiastic and ap-
peared to take Mr.. Weavers rosy state
ment of the case with many grains of al
lowance.

THE BOYD ROBBERY

The Accused Committed for Trial.

charged with having been concerned in the
robbery of DIR. J. o. Boyd's Office No II
South Queen street, on the night of June

bail was committed to answer at court.
Thco. Martin, cOlorcd, identified Tobin as

evidence that Tobin and Diamond were to.
gether in Columbia a few days before the
robbery, and were there arrested as tramps
under assumed names. 1t will be recol-
lected that Diamond was tried and con.
victed of the robbery and is now serving

A WONDERFIL RECORD.

| Myri;tls of sO-caled "Specitics" and cures
| tor rheumatism have already been brought
| before the public. and many of them have
| even been endorsed by the certificate of re-
spectacle and prominent citizens. who have
| derived benefit from such preparations. There
| is no doubt that great many of these /" Lini-
ments." Oils" etc, so widely advertised and
| freely recommended for rheumatism and pain
| full complaints of a similar nature, have senu-
inc merit. and will relieve certain types OF the
complaints named but when Rheumatism,
Neuralgia. and kindred diseases have become
chronic and threaten serious results, you may
rest assured that they will help but very little.
Although not recommended ''infillibc,''
the peculiar qualities of ST. JACOBS Oil espe-
cially adapt it to those cases which may be
termed "chronic" and which have previously
withStOOd all known "spccitics" AS well as the
prescriptions of the best physicians.
We would mention. as an example, the case
of \. Heilman. editor of the Pittsburgh Re-
publican, who suffered with Rheumatism for
two years. After vainly using all the best re-
commended remedies, and eXhlusting the skill
of the most experienced physicians without
even temporary relief, it required only two
bottles OF ST. JACOBS OIL to effect Il permanent
cure. Mr.. G. IIanni. a well-knOwn citizen of
Youngstown, Ohio secured for his wife, who
for twelve years had been a acOnStant sufferer
from Neuralgia in the head, the services of the
ablcst physicians of the land but they were
unable to do anything tor her; half bottle of
ST. JACOBS OIL cured her. Mr.. VIM. Reinhart,
ElmOre, Wis, reports the of a neighbor
who for twenty-four years had suffered so ter
ribly with Rheumatism that, at times. she
could hardly move around: few bottles of
ST. JACOBS OIL cured him. To cap the eli
max" however Mr.. A. NeiScr, of TaylOrvillc,
Pa. writes, that his mother. who had been Il
continual sufferer with rheumatism for the
past thirty years, used one bottle of ST.
JACOBS OIL. and was Immediately relieved of
all pain. These are results which truly de-
serve to be brought to public notice: but they
are not exceptions, as will be seen by the nu-
merouS other certificates from all parts of the
United States. 1t should be the duty of every
one to call the attention of his suffering friends
and ncighb0rs to this wonderfully etcacious
preparation, especially as the low price of 30
cents Il bottle places it within the reach of all
persons, rich and poor.

Attempt to Fire . Stable.

attempt 10 F1re . StaDle.
Last night between 10 and II O. clock, an
attempt was made to burn frame stable
belonging to the estate of Christian Rine,
deceased, and situated on the west side of
Shippen street, between Orange and East
King. The fire was discovered by Patrick
Cherry, who was driving his coach past
the stable at the time on his way to the de-
pot with passengers. About the time he saw
the fire he gave the alarm and saw man
running from the building. James Nc
Kenna, who lives in the vicinity, heard
the alarm, and he ran to the building with
Mr.. Cherry. They broke open the door
leading to Shippen street and found a
piece of burning waste lying Oh board
under the door. The fire was easily ex-
tinguished and no damage was done what
ever.
An alarm was given and several fire
companies ran their machines out, but
their service was not needed.

Weakly and Sickly Persons.

Many persons who are weak and sickIy ut
this season of the year at Ii loss to know
what will restore their health. 1t has lately
been found by experience that the use OF
Speer's Port Grape Wine is one of the best re-
stOratIvcS known. Physicians, clergymcn and
temperance advocates should encourage the
use of Port Grape and thus aid the cause OF
temperance and moderation. 1t is especially
recommended to families for its purity, eX.
quisite flavor and health properties. Medical
men certify to Its valuable medicinal powers.
Mr.. Spccr has been for years engaged in the
raising of grapes and perfecting this wine, and
it requires Il four years process before it is tit
for markedly. y. Baptist.
This wine is endorsed by Drs. Atlee and
Davis. and sold by H. f. SIaymaker, who has
procured some direct from the Vineyards. 1t
is excellent for females, especially for those
