Something of sensation was caused in
this oty yesterday by rumor that one OF
our best known citizens was about to pub
lish statement concerning some unusual
experiences during his residence in SYRIA
cu5e. How the runor orig mated 1t Is i'm
possible to say, but reporter Immediate
ly sought DIR. S. q. Martin. the gen lcman
in question, and secured the following in-
tcrv.cw:
"What about this rumor, Doctor, that
you are going to make a public statement
of SGm' Important mat ersE
d" Just about the same as you Will find IN
all rumors--Somo truth; some hcJion. L
had contemplated making publication OF
some remarkablc episodes that have Oc-
Cured i'll my life, but have not completed
it as yet"
w hat is the nature of it, may inquiries"
"Why, the fact that l am human being
instead OF spirit. l have passed through
one Of the most wonder ul ordcals that per-
hapS ever occurred TO any man. The first
iniimation | had of it was several years
ago, when began to feel chilly at night
and re 'tleSS after retiring. Occasionally
this would he varicdby a soreness OF 'he
muscles and cramps i'll my arms ana legs.
| thought, as most people would think, that
it was only a cold and S, paid as little at
t,ntion to il as possible. Shortly after
this | noticed Il p.cu lar catarrhal trouble
AMI my throat also became lnfained. AS
if t. is were rot variety enough felt sharp
ioIits in my c:lcst, and II co -istant tendency

"Wuv didn't YOU take the mat: er i'll hand
and check il right where 1t waS!'
"Whv doesn't everybody do SO? Sim
ply because they think it is only some tri-
fling and passing iii order. These troubles
did not come all at once and l thought it
uninauly to heed them. l have found,
though, that every physical neglect must
Ic pal for ana with large interest. Men
can not draw drafts on their constitution n
without honorinS them sometimes. These
minor symptoms | Lave described, grew
until they were 6 ant of agony. became
more nervous; had n strange huttering or
IKE heart, an inability to draw long
breath aId an occasional nuinbncSS that
was terribly suggestive Of paralysis. HOW
| could nav, been 50 blind as not to under,
stand what this meant can not imagine" "
" And oil you do nothinS"'
Yes, I travelled. In the spring of 1873
1 won't to Kansas and Colorado, ana while
in Denver, was attacked with my stern,
Gus hcmorrhaGc of the urinary organs ana
lost twesty y pounds Of fics,: i'll thrct week ;.
Oae day afe my return was taken with
terrible chill and ut once advanced to a
very severe attack of pneumonia. My lett
lung soon entirely fl lei with water and
| my l IS ard Gody /, came tw ice their nat
| ulal size. l was obi god to 81. upright in
| bed for several wooks in tho midst of the
| sevcrest agony, with my arms over my
| head, and IN constant fear of sufTocation.'
{" And did you still make no attempt 10
| "Yos, | made frantic efforts. tried ev.
| cry thing that seemed to offer the least
l. prospect of relief. l called council OF
| ID, tors and had them max an exhaustive
| chemical and microscopical examination
| OF my ndition. Five of the best physi
| clans of Syracuse and several from anoth'
| cr city said / must die!
| 1t seemed as though their assertion was
| true for my feet became cold, my mouth
| parched, my eyes wore fixed CLASSY
stare, my DO iy was covered Win cold
| clammy death sweat, ANA read my fat g
in the anxious expressions of my family
and frieudS.o
g But the Gadle?"
"Came at last. Ny wife, aroused tc
desperation, be IAN to administer rcmedy y
upon her own responsibility and while
| &: CIV better very SLOWLY, gained ground
surely until, in brief, have no trace of the
| terrible Brights di ease from VIII c,l l was

may sound like u romance, but it is true,

10 Warmers Safo Cure, which | wish was
| known 20 and use by tho thousands WHO,
| believe, are suffering this minute as was
originally. Does not SUCH an experience
as thi. justify me in makin.a a public state,
~ certainly does. But then Bright's dis.
ease is not a common complaint, doctor"
mot common! On the contrary it is
| one of the most common. The trouble Is,
| few people know they have it. 1t has so
| few marked symptoms until its final stages
| that person may have it for years, each
year & ,tting more and moro in its power
| and not suspect it. 1t is quite natural
should feel enthusiastic over Il is remedy
while my wife is even more so than am.
She knows of its being used with surpris-
| ing results by many ladies for their own
| PECULIAR ailments, over which 1t has slngu-
| lar power"
| The statement drawn out by the above
| interview is andy confirm d by very
many of our most prominent citizens,
| among them being Judge Reigel. and
| Colonel James S. Goodrich, of the Times,
| while General Dwight ii. Bruce and Rev.
| Pro- w. T. Coddington, ID. d., We the
remedy their heartiest endorsement. In
| this age of wonders, surprising things are
| quite common but an experience SO unusual
as that of DR.. Martins and occurring here
teach lesson. 1t shows the necessity of
| guarding the slightest approach of physi-
| cal disorder and by tho means which has
| been proven the most reliable and efficient :.
| It shows the dep:h to which one can sink
| and ye: be rescued and it proves that few
| people need suffer if these truths are OBJ
| served.
