AYERS PILLS.

A largo proportion of the diseases which
cause human suffering result from derange-
ment of the stomach, bowels, and liver.
AYERS CATIIARrIC PILLS act directly upon
these organs, and are especially designed to
cure the diseases caused by their deranse-
ment, including Constipation, Indiges-
ton, Dyspepsia, Headache, Dysentery,
and host of other ailments, for all of
which they are n safe, sure, prompt and
pleasant remedy. The extensive use of these
PILLS by eminent physicians IN regular prac-
lice, shows Enthusiastically the estimation in
which they are held by the medical profess
sion.
These PILLS are compounded of vegetable
substances only, and are absolutely free from
calumcl or any other injurious ingredient.
A Sufferer from Headache writes:

Among the newfanglcd notions Of the

incorporate this idea into itssfundamen-

one years of age AMI upward shall be
eligible to any Office OF control or man

practice has become quite general.

further than that Of Pennsylvania aud

JUDGMENT AGAINST THE MONON.
The Jury Awards Verdict of $4,000 for
the Death of George Lowry.

Before Judge Walker, yesterday, the suit for
damages brought by Daniel Goodykoontz.
guardian of George Lowry, against the L., N.
A. & Chicago railway went to the jury. 1t
arose from the killing of Lowry in the bridge ac-
eident at Broad Ripple, Jan. 81. 1884.
Both defendant and compliments attorneys
asked the jury for special finding. the first
mentioned submitting form of considerable
length. asking that the company be compelled
to answer for the negligence of its agents
and employees. The defendants sought
to throw the responsibility on to Parr,
the bridge builder. and the deceased
The jury was directed to find that prior to the
day OF the accident the temporary rods, used at
the time of the accident, had been used sixty
nve vines upon bridges over the Wabash, Deer
creek. North Fork of Wild Cat and in other
panels of the Broad Ripple bridge. Each time
1t was necessary to screw the taps
them to a tension to support the
panels of the bridges in which they were used
Added to this fact is the other, that these four
temporary rods were not as strong as the six
permanent rods, yet they were subjected to a
greater strain than was ordinarily sustained by
either of the permanent rods The fact that
they were placed outside instead of
between the timbers Of the cords in
creased somewhat the strain upon them. Rods
Tor this purpose deteriorate very rapidly, and
are quickly affected by the jar of engines and be-
come less able to sustain the weight to which
they are subjected. This fact could have been
known to defendant through reasonable and or
binary care Thomas Parr. the foreman, had
been in the employ Of the company six months,
and was considered fully competent, with full
power to employ and discharge
men under him. At least one laborer
employed by him had had experience in
bridge building. The complainant also claimed
a verdict because no warning had been given to
the train of danger at the bridge when the rod
nuts had become loosened thus contributing to
the weakness of the panel. The jury, after some
elaboration, returned a verdict of So 500 dam
ages on the findings submitted by complainant.

A Threatened Iron-ore Famine.

CLEVELAND. o., Dec. lin it's annual sum-
mary OF the iron-ore industry of the country,
the iron Trade Review will say, tomorrow, that
more Lake Superior ore was sold the past year
than ever before in the history Of that industry,
the sales aggregating 1888, 436 tons. There re-
manned at the close of navigation, on dock at
Lake Erie points, ,048 $40 tons, of which all but
13O, GOO tons were sold. In consequence of this
exceedingly small surplus, and the increased de-
nand for ore, especially for Bessemer steel max
ing. an iron-ore famine is threatened The only
district available by rail, during the winter
months, for supplying the large steel works of
the country, is the Pilot Knob region, in Mis-
souri,. 1t is understood that $50, 900 tons of the
latter ores have been stacked up and held for
still higher prices. The past two weeks have
witnessed marked increase in the prices of
Lake Superior ores, and a corresponding rush on
the part of consumers to obtain stock before the
supply is exhausted. The direct result of this
condition of affairs, it is predicted, will be to
actively stimulate imports of foreign ores sales
of which are already being pressed in the Pitts,
burg market

one, both to those who furnish the entertain
