A REMARKABLE CURE OF A HORSE.

Colonel James l.. Fleming. q prominent
grocery merchant, member of the firm OF
Fleming q Lotion. Augusta, Ga, makes the
following statement of the treatment OF
valuable herse with Swift's Speeches:
In the fall OF 1888 / had valuable colt
taken with a severe case OF pinkeye, which
resulted in the most fearful case OF blood
poisoning have ever seen. After eight or
nine msnths Of doctoring with every remedy
that could hear OF i despaired OF cure
Al this time the horse was unable to move
because OF swollen limbs. His right nlnu
leg was as large as mans body, ana mao
OH IL over forty running sores. He hau
also u number OF large sores on his body and
other limbs. He was a most pitiable-loo
Ing object, and was advised to end his sur
lerings with the shotgun. He was vaiua-
BILE animal and l aid not want to lose him.
After racking my brain In search Tor an
other remedy more efficaclous thought OF
Swift's Specific. / knew IL was Invaluable
to the human family as blood-purlner,
aud why should IL not be for the animal as
we'll? did not hesitate, but sent last July
TO Atlanta for q supply.
/ began the treatment with ounces OF :.
g. s. and 4 ounces Of water three times q
day. This l continued for week. Then
increased the dose TO ounces OF each, and
continued for week. Then l increased TO
ounces and run 1t week. when went
back to d ounces again. The result was that
at the end OF the first week the horse had q
fair appetite, which he had not had since
MS tlCkntes. Az Gnu VI tht octOhu Wtth
even greater Improvement was apparent.
for many OF the sores were healing nicely,
and the horse manifested a desire to move
about. AT the end Of the third week he be-
gan to show gain in flesh, and had full APP
petite. The swelling had about disappear
ed. 1 used In all about Is bottles Of Swift's
Specific. and when quit its use the horse
had only four small sores left on him, and
they healed up Immediately.
In August last all symptoms OF the disease
passed away, and up to date no signs OF the
return OF the trouble have made their APP
pearance, and the horse has done mules
work on my farm.
l regard u one Of the most remarkable
cures have ever known. Thus this great
medicine has proven n boon 10 the animal
as well as TO the human mce.

Indian Depredatlons

Indians are becoming more bold in
their stealing than they have been for
several years past, and they get away
with the stolen animals better than they
did before the military were in the coun-
try or the Canadian northwest was set
tied up. In those days q party would
be organized to go after them and nine
times out Of ten the stolen property re-
covered. But now man loses animals
he gets no help from the military au-
thorities, who seem to regard COM
plant as ruse adopted by the unfortu-
nate freighter to get help to recover ami
mails which have strayed away. OF all
the animals which have been stolen in
northern Montana within the past five
years we do not believe that twenty-five
head have been recovered blr troops. Tt
il the general opinion that 1ley are sta
toned here to prevent indians from
stealing stock and for the protection OF
settlers, but petitions asking for troops
to be stationed at different points 10
nreyent Indian raids are quietly ignored,
and the stealing goes on. 1t i high
time that the matter instead Of going
through the regular official channels be
nlaced directly before the secretary Of

The Gladstone Government Defeated.

LONDON, June Sin the house of
commons tonight, on the second read
ing of the budget, after a splendid de-
bate, the government was defeated by q
vote Of 264 to 252. When the result was
announced Lord Randolph Churchill
and Parnell jumped up in their seats
and enthusiastically waved their hats.
Tremendous excitement was caused by
the announcement of the result of the
division and Gladstone Immediately adj
iourned the house. 1t is confidently
rumored that Gladstone will visit the
queen tomorrow and tender his resig-
nation.
The Telegraph says it is doubtful
whether the conservatives will accept
the office.
The News says, editorially: "It is
to forecast the consequences
of the vote. The ministry will probably
resign and the opposition take possession
Of the government. We do not suppose
that even the conservative leaders seek
to undo what has been done on the At
CHAN question. The whole policy of the
is thrown into momentary,
