The Search for MautZ.
CONFLICTING STORIES AS To THE HUNT FOR HIM !
NEW YORK

CONFLICTING STORIES AS To THE HUNT FOR HIM IN
SEW YORK.
The recent expedition In search OF George Mantz
which failed to find him, has been the subject OF
good many wtticism5 among the ex-detectives and
the friends OF the missing man.
THE EX-DETEcTTvES' VERSION OF THE PURSUIT..
One story they tell IS. thar when the police agent
from this city reached New York he went to a
hotel and reg istered his NAME and then drawing
from his pocket pair Of nippers handed them 10
the clerk and said. In a polnpous voice, "Kaen
tnese; VIII need them soon" Ii IS further state
tnat MantZ knew OF his arrival few hours after
ne reached the city. One o the eX-detectiyeS who
gives this version went on TO New York a few DAYS
afterwards, and II is said that he saw Mantz ma
iearned these particulars from him. MantZ then
IOl1 li!m that lie saw the agent from Washington
at Elliott funeral, surrounded With bailiffs wait
Ing Tor his tMaatz1 appearance. This iS the ex-
detective S version OF the affair
THE ACTUAL FACTS
it is stated differ greatly from this. The officer
was sent on with information as TO Mantz where
abOuts, and he would have caught him IL as is
believed, the fugitive had not alrea!y left New
YORK city. A ruinOr was in circulation to-day
tnaJ one or the eX-detectiyeS had actually followed
from this city the man seEt to New York TO arrest
Mantz. This. however, is hardly credited aud If
IL was so. 1t would give color TO the statement
that tne relations between the eX-detectives AMI
police headquarters are still intimate. II Is. how
ever, pretty certain that whatever may be the
Mantz. the public IS indignant that it was not
successful. Smith also is Still at large. and IL is
dncu!t to understand why both these men
nave not long ago been arrested.

Oh,MyBack!

That's a common express
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
lis occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will SO quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Browns IRON BITTERs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM. P. Marshall, of Logans-
port, Indians, writes: MY wife
has for many years been trou-
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one

she has been SO much benefited
that she pronounces it the
only remedy of many medi-
cines she has tried"
