A Mistaken Statement

Rev. G. A. Harvey, d. D., is the popular
financial secretary Of the Howard UNIVERSE
ty, and is specially fitted to judge of merit
and dement,. In recent letter from
Washington to friend he said: SCI have
for two years past been acquainted with the
remedy known as Warmers Safe Kidney
and Liver Cure, and with its remarkable
curative efficiency in obstinate and so-called
incurable cases OF Bright's disease in this
city. In some of these cases, which seemed
10 be in the last stages, and which had been
given up by practitioners of both schools, the
speedy change wrought by this remedy
seemed but little less than miraculous.
am convinced that for Bright's Disease in
all its stages, Including the first symptoms,
which seem so slight but are so dangerous,
no remedy heretofore discovered can be
held for one moment in comparison with
this"

A CELEBRATED CASE.
II Renewed In the Superior Courts-A
New Suit Filed.

Among the suits fled in the Superior
Court Thursdaysswas that of Warren Tate vs.
Milton Pouder and Georgia Pouder, which
originally came to this County on change of
venue from Hamilton. The killing of
William Love by the plaintiff in the above
action grew out of this suit, Love being a
witness in the case, when Tate recovered a
judgment for $1S 049.77 against Pouder. He
committed the act in the hallway of the
Court House before Love had testified in the
case. 1t appears from the complaint that
all of the judgment then rendered has been
satisfied excepting about $1,000, which Tate
alleges can be collected from the defendants
The complaint further alleges that certain
property of Pouder's, including his butcher
shops, has been conveyed to Georgia Poudel
his (Milton's) step daughter, to prevent the
serving of an execution on the same, anC
asks that the Court grant decree on thes,
grounds of fraudulent conveyance.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1.-THE announce

afternoon that the firm OF Washington
Butchers Sons, wholesale provision deal

to meet their liabilities, and were forced to
suspend payment. Inquiry established the
correctness of the announcement, and it was
officially stated the liabilities from the pres

report of the failure created decided sensa-
ton when it reached the street, and it was
declared this was one of the ruinous effects
of the grain corner. and others would speed
lily follow. A member of the firm stated
this afternoon the failure was the result OF
speculations in wheat and corn in Chicago.
A draft from a Chicago house for SIS 600
reached the firm this morning, and was re-
turned on account of complications of that
branch of the firm. In answer to
the question as to the nature of the
complications, the same member of the
firm remarked that they had been carrying
large holdings of grain for customers, that
there was heavy decline in the market,
and that this was the cause of the suspen-
sion. "If all our assets were active" he
said, I'VE would be able to pay 100 cents on
the dollar. AS it is, / do not think we shall
have to scale our claims more than 10 or
possibly 20 per cent. The principal losses
will be in the East and West, and in Phil
adelphia among banks. The firm will not
suspend business. however"

entertain hopes of completing the first story

for the second floor can be placed thereon

have been investigating the subject of roof

difficulties of making perfect roof are by
no means few or trivial matters. In pur-
suance of their investigating they visited
the State Capitols of Iowa and Illinois dur
ing the past month, and examined the roofs
of these buildings. A full report is being

appointed for that purpose, though it is not

this time. The Board has received a num-
