DR.. G. McLANE'S
CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS.

In Offering TO the public DR.. c. NcLdHes cele-
brdie1 LjreT PiIS as remedy for Lirer and BIZ
ious Complaints, we presume no apology will be
needed. The great prevalence OF LjreT Conf
plant and Bilious Diseases Of al kinds throughout
the United States, and particularly i'll the West
and South, where, in the majority of eases, the
patient is not within the reach of a regular
physician, requires that some remedy should be
provided that would not in the least impair the
constitution, aud yet be safe and eflectual. That
such is the character of Or. c McLdne'S Liuer
Pills there can be no doubt. The great success
which has Invariably attended their use win,
we think, be sufficient TO convince the most in
credulOus. 1t has been our sincere wish that
these pills should be fairly tested, and stand or
fall by the effects produced. That they have
been So tested, and that the result has been in
every respect favorable. we call tens of thou
sands to witness who have experienced their
beneficial effects.
DIR. C. McLANES LIVER PILLS
Are not held forth or recommended (like most of
the popular medicines of the day, as universal
cure-allS, but simply as a specific for Lire' Cone
1ltcjpfs and those symptoms connected with a
deranged state of that organ.

POUNDED HIS PARSON.
A Spirited Pugilistic Engagement Between
Levi Ritter and Rev. W. L. Clancy.

The people Of Irvington are considerably ex-
cited over pugilistic engagement between Rev.
w. L. Clancy, pastor of the Irvington Methodist
Church, and Levi Ritter, the well-known at
torney, of this city. Clancy is credited with
having aroused numerous dissensions in his con-
gregation, which have been for the most part
suppressed and quieted. On Tuesday morning
he called at the home of Mr.. Ritter, who is q
leading member Of his church, to consult with
that gentleman concerning certain church mat
ters, and during the conversation the pastor re-
dected discreditably upon several members Of
the church To this kind of talk Mr. Ritter en-
phatically objected, and requested Clancy to de-
sist in his attempts at maligning members of the
congregation, but continuing, the pastor grew
still more bitter towards certain ones, and finally
reached a climax in speaking in very objection
able way of Mrs. Ritter, who is an earnest
worker In the church and an estimable woman.
At this insult, Mr. Ritter promptly requested the
pastor to leave the house. Clancy refused at
hrst, but afterwards went out into the yard, and
as Ritter was slamming the door in his face, he
suddenly returned to the porch, called Ritter a
liar, and defed him to come out on the grass and
settle the matter, asserting at the same time
that he was coward. Upon this challenge Mr..
Ritter promptly stepped out into the yard and
struck Clancy several hard blows, when he
paused for breath. The reverend gentle nan
proved to be poor fighter and retreated into
the streets where he again challenged Ritter to
combat. The latter started, but becoming
ashamed OF the row. went back again, expressing
his sincere regret at having struck minister,
but avowing at the same time that Clancy de-
served the treatment which he had received. Later
reports concerning the difficulty have brought to
light the fact that Rev. Mr.. Clancy has been in
the habit for some time past of speaking disre-
spectfully of Mr.. Ritter's family.

ing the Value Of Mining Stock.

Artemus N. Hadley had a block Of the Ameri-
can Mining Company, of Leadville, Col, to sell,
and found purchaser in VIM. Il. Thomas. The

against Hadley, alleging false representation
He says the defendant came to him at different
times, earnestly soliciting him to buy It alleged
that Hadley told him the mining claims of the
company were good property, that the capital
stock was small and the shares sold readily at
par. Tho plaintiff mentions as another induce
ment offered him the standing of A. L. Pogue as
miner Of large experience. Hadley, it is charged,
told him Pogue would be the superintendent Of
the company's mines, and further, that the
stock he had was known as treasury stock the
amount realized from which would 60 toward
developing the property. No stock, it was
represented, could be bought for less
than par. Thomas thereupon paid
Hadey 81. 600. but he alleges he afterward dis
covered that the stock was not from the COM
pany's treasury but Hadleyis own holdings He
fhen asked the defendant to take back the stock,
which was refused. 1t is further charged that
mono of the representations were true. but on
the contrary the company had no means with
which to work mining claims. DAMAGES in the

left the door open, but notwithstanding his care
lessness, he tried to hold the hotel proprietors

SLAUGHTERING DISEASED ANIMALS.
A Lot Of Diseased and Crippled Cattle and
Sheep Killed by the Health Officers.

Yesterday, Health Officers Newcomb and Bar
consignment of diseased cattle, sheep and hogs
did not reach the city markets or were not
shipped elsewhere An inspection had been
made by the State Veterinarian of the lot, and
upon his order, as well as that Of the
city Board of Health, the officers shot
three steers afflicted with cancer of the jaw,
ordered three more suffering for want of food to
be penned, and not, under any circumstances,
to be sold to butchers. Forty-four sheep, some
with broken legs and others badly mangled by
dogs, were condemned, the worst being shot
and the others sent to pasturage Six hogs out
OF consignment Of twenty -one had died from
cholera, and the rest were purchased by col
ored man at twenty five cents per head. Those
having faint Of the disease he will kill, and
penned are worth nothing, except what
their hides may bring, and the highest offer
made for thenEwas three dollars per head 1t
was claimed at the stockyards that the officers
had no right to kill the steers, and it is asserted
that threats were made in an enjeavor to pre-
vent them from carrying out their orders An
other incident IS told of the effort to save one
of the diseased steers. 1t was promised that it
would be cared for, and not shipped to
the destination of the consignment-Buffal
to them that the animal had been placed in a
carload of healthy cattle. They returned i'm
mediately, got the steer and shot it. Since in
Cincinnati, Chicago and Pittsburg diseased cat
tie are shot at once, all that come to this point
are sent to Buffalo, where no severe restrictions
exist The officers say that after an animal
with cancer Of the jaw is killed, it is impossible
to detect any disease in the meat, and that
within the last three months great deal of this
kind has been put upon the indianapolis market.

ARRESTED

THE MURDERER OF THE SMELL FAMILY
ARRESTED.
Georg Miller, the murder from Grand
Forks, Oak, was arrested at Anoka by
Deputy Sheriff McLaren, Brainard.,
The murderer is said to be a poor, half
witted young mon, and his story of the
affair is as follows:
''Inever drank a drop of liquor in my
life until New Years night. when was
persuaded to do so by an old bachelor at
dance. On the day before the night of
the scrape was Ill town and bought
bottle of whisky, and coming home late
[ put it in the barn and went to the
house. When got in the house she
Mrs. Smelly, commenced to abuse me
for being out so late. and of going to a
dance. That made me awful mad, and
went back to the barn and drank nearly
all the whisky and went back to tie
house and stared up stairs to go to bed,
but changed my mind. So I went III
and killed her with an axe.'' He was
then asked what he killed the boy with?
his answer was that he didn't know.
An exchange says of the murderer:
The young man mad the utmost confid-
ence not only of Mr. Smell but the neigh
borhood. lie was to all outward appear
ance model young man-conducte,i
the family devotions in Mr.. Smells alb
sence, asked blessings at meals, and was
seemingly devout reader of the bible.
He was considered valuable man in
the place."
