WARREN LELAND,
Ayers Sarsaparilla.

Since then Mr.. LELAND has recommended
AYERS SARsAPARILLA in many similar
cases. and he has never yet heard of its fall
ure to effect radical cure.
Some years ago one of Mr.. LELASD's farm
laborers bruised his leg. Owing to the bad
state of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump appeared on the injured limb. lIor-
rible itching of the skin, with burning and
darting pains through the lump, made life
almost intolerable. The leg became enor-
mously enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities Of extremely
offensive matter. No treatment was Of any
avail until the man, by Mr.. LELANp's direc-
ton, was supplied with AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA, which allayed the pain and irritation,
healed the sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to use.
Mr.. LELAND has personally used

The concert given at the Town
Hall Thursday evening, under the
direction of Prof. Fuller. merits more
than a passing notice. Owing TO the
postponement, the audience was not as
large as it otherwise would have been,
! yet fair and appreciatlve number
were present. The chorus singing
(not emitting the juveniles) is deserv-
ing of much praise. Damascus
March" was particularly well rem
dered. The songs and duets by
Misses Lemon and Simpson and Prof.
Fuller were roundly applauded. Miss
Lemons voice shows thorough train
ing and her articulation is good.
Home talent came in for round
share of approval. Miss Slayton
sang "Ah SO True" with violin OBJ
ligato by Prof. Whipple, with life,
and in q correct and pleasing man
ner, that was heartily endorse by the
audience. The instrumental music
was of a high order of composition.
Messrs. Allen and Whipple had to
draw the bow to the encore more than
once. Prof. Aliens reputation is al
ready established, and the ordinary
violinist has little business with Prof.
Whipple. Their playing was much
enjoyed and appreciated. Of Mrs.
ChurchilPs part we can not speak in
too high terms. She not only seemed
to he interchangeable, but she executed
with decision and correctness the ac-

concert.

allege that Austria and Seryla are in

detrimental to Russla's interest in the

The dispute growing out of the rival claims VI
France and Portugal to certain sections Of
Guinea, has reached a crisis and serious trouble
IS feared.
PARIS, Oct. 29-Considerable excitement was
created here today by an attempt to assassi-
nate M. De Freyclnct, French minister Of for
eign affairs. After attending a cabinet meeting
M. De Freycinct took a drive, and while re
turning to the building occupied by tho
ministry Of foreign affairs, q man stepped, out
into the roadway and fired u pistol directly at
the carriage in which was seated the minister.
Fortunately the shot was harmless, and before
the culprlt could fire again he was arrested by a
officer. When the Would-bea assassin was examined
at the police station he confessed that he didn't
know M. DeFreycint personally, and refused TO
give his lame or occupation, The prisoner
looks like a mechanic OF superior intelligence,
and appears to be of Italian origin.
