much to do with our existence. Never
give up. Study TO find where you have
gone against Nature the hardest, and aban-
don all things possible that do you harm.
Yet you will find it necessary at times to
depend on q good reliable medicine to
help you out. Hops are a good nervine
and tonic; Podophoiin a cathartic and
liver regulator; Buchu acts on the kidneys
and urinary organs.
These, properly combined with other in
gradients, have proved the greatest medi-
cine ever prepared, and known through
out the world as Hop Bitters.

CUT HIS THROAT.
Ex-Treasurer Adams of the Framingham
Mass Savings Bank Unable
to Stand the
Disgrace of an Exposure Of His Defal-
catien, Puts an End to His
Life
By Cutting His Throat from Ear to
Ear-The Bank Closed In
Consequence.

SOUTH FRAMINGHAM, MASS, August
24-Ex Treasurer Adams of the Fran
ingham Savings Bank, whose accounts
were, last week, made the subject of a
special investigation by Bank Commits
sioner Gatchell, and whose resignation
was requested, committed suicide at
the bank this afternoon by cutting
his throat. When found revolver
lay beside him, which, it is supposed, he
intended to use, provided the razor did
not accomplish the work This forenoon
the ex-treasurer, who all through the
trouble which the bank has been ex-
periencing for the past few days
has appeared to be very cool and collected
came to South Framingham from his
Framingham Center home, and went to
one of the lawyers Offices in Nobscott
block, where the savings bank Is located.
Here, during the forenoon, he remained,
and for some time assisted in figuring up
the interest accounts of the depositors
who came to-day to draw their money.
Shortly after 2 clock Mr. Gatchell ar
rived at the lawyers office and began to
look over Adams ledger. Adams then
went to the bank and killed himself He
leaves widow, daughter and two sons.
Adams held prominent position in the
community, socially and financially.
MR.. GATCHELL
has made statement, in which he says
that there are many irregularities in the
accounts of Mr. Adams The check
books are, he says, in a very unsatisfact-
ory condition. The stubs are improperly
filled out-in some cases blindly, in some
cases blank He and his son drew IN
known sums for use in other private
business, and Adams drew over $1,000 in
the last two months for personal ex-
penses. He was very lax in attending to
the banks business. The interest on
$4,000, loaned on mortgages and due
last April, had not yet been collected,
while much of it was far more in arrears
A part of the bank dividend had not yet
been paid for year and half The
books are being examined by an expert
THE BANK CLOSED.
After the announcement of the suicide
the bank was Immediately closed by or
der of the commissioner, and business
will remain suspended until after the ac-
counts have been fully investigated.

Ed. REVIEW thought 1 would
write you a few lines for your valu-
able paper In regard to the mining
camp between the Spokane and Co
lumbia rivers, ten miles north Of Ft.
Spokane, on the road from the Fort
to Colyille, and engineered by Mi.
G. L Warner. There are ten men in
the camp, all told, and they have
done great deal Of excavating the
past winter to get at the precious
minerals
On the Emma mine there has been
a tunnel run 200 feet, and they have
cut a vein OF ore ten feet wide carry
ing from $40 to 500, and are sinking
a shaft 20 feet in depth on the claim,
and have found the finest prospect
ever discovered this side OF the
Rocky range, so pronounced by Geo.
b. McCauley and Prof. Moore, and
assaying from $50 to Sl2O per ton.
The Chaning mine assays from $25
to Sl25 h. the ton.
The boys In camp have IS claims
staked out with the prospects all
looking nearly as well us the above
claims. The assays that have been
submitted to the U. s. assayer at
Helena, Mont, have been very salts
factory, and the boys are all feeling
very well over their prospects, but
they have tried to keep It quiet dur
ing the winter, but new grass has
started out, and now let the rush
commence.
Mr.. Jas. Monaghan, trader at the
Fort, was here a few days ago to see
the mines, and was so well pleased
with the prospects Of the mines that
he is figuring on a town site. Also
Judge Gardner and an officer, whose
name could not learn, were also here
to see the mines. The boys are now
looking for. Messrs. McCauley and
Moore back from Chewelah for the

indications Of Healthy Revival Of
the Otd Time Boon.

Our people have borne up under
the afiilctlon Of the depression brave
", sustained by the unfaltering trust
that the spring would bring a decid-
ed change for the better. It cannot
be said that spring has already ar
rived, although the change Is much
for the better, and the sprOuting Of
grass and blooming OF buttercups
heraldsits near approach, yet already
we see the symptoms Of a-leaning to-
ward better times, and with the
promise OF the coming summer a
strong Indication OF that renewed
prosperity everybody hoped for and
which we have 80 consistently pre-
dicted. There are already many
strangers in the city. Where they
come from we know not, but they
seemed to have sprung up all at once.
a marked Improvement Yves notice
able 10 all branches Of trade Satur-
day and this week, and a satisfied
expression Is to be seen on every
face. The best indication Of a re-
yival Of the old time faith in the city
Is the growing demand for real estate
and the contamination OF a transfer
to-day that was one Of the largest that
has taken place in the city for a long
time The sale was made by A. NJ.
Cannon, Esq, through his agent A.
Q. Absolom, and consisted Of lots on
Post and Main streets and Riverside
avenue, the very centre Of our city.
The purchaser is Mr.. W. A. Harvey,
an English gentleman, who arrived
IN our city few weeks since, and
who has been looking out for safe in
vestments. The consideration was
slo,50o which was paid down in cash.
Mr.. Harvey has secured some excel
lent property that is bound in time
to increase In value. This sale, on
the first day Of the first month In
spring is very encouraging, and we
expect to hear Of 1t being followed
Immediately by numerous Transfers.
The revival Of business, the demand
for real estate, the encouraging re-
ports from Mr.. Mohr, who has about
completed the sale Of the water front,
and the wonderful GSap0nts -of>the
richness Of the mines surrounding
the city is certain to make Spokane
Falls, this summer and fdr all time
to come, one OF the very best cities
on the coast We hail with delight
this indication Of returning prosperi-
ty and believe the spring that has
opened so auspicIously will more
than realize our most sangulne hopes.
