Captain Scott of the cruiser Lansdowne,
says that the stories that Americans are
poaching within the three-mile limit at
Prince Edward Island are fables. Even if
there were not fish enough outside, the
Americans could not fish within the limit to
any extent, because the water is so shoal
that they would destroy their seines in
throwing them there. This confirms what
our fishermen have said during the whole
dispute. The privilege of fishing within the
three-mile limit would not be a great con-
cession, and they do not want Mr. Bayard to
sacrifice their markets for the sake Of getting

LIQUID Food was given before and after the operations

Operations annually.
Babe S.


Remember that with feeble infants who do not
thrive ON their mothers milk or the best prepared
foods in the market, WE REQUEST NO CHANGE
OF FOOD but add or more drops four times
daily of Murdock's Liquid Food, and you will find
that their lost or needed vitality will be restored
to them in less than thirty days.
Not a case of Cholera Infantum known where
Murdock'S Liquid Food has been used, nor death
from Cholera Infantum where it has been pre-
scribed by physician.
The question often asked-how does Murdocks
LIQUID Food compare with other Foods and Ton
les? We refer to the State Inspector of Foods for
Massachusetts in his annual report for 1886.
MurdocE's Liquid Food contains IA. 10 per cent.
Of albumen; all the other foods do not contain
any. Common food does not contain over one per
cent that is available.
1t contains less organic matter than common
food and common food contains 1885, the other
preparations from 22.62 to $3.50 per cent.
1t contains 0.42 of ash, which is indigeStDe
matter. The others contain from $50 to 23.74
per cent.
In alcoholic extracts 1.S5. The other prep
atations are all TONES, as they contain from
2n.t3 to 56.13 per cent.
These facts show why Murdock's Liquid Food
excels all other foods and preparations in making
new blood and cleansing the system of disease.
A tablespoonful four times a day will make 1o
rounds new blood monthly, and the system con-
i6ins "a to 2S pounds.

PERU, Sept. 23.-Dr. Josiah Watson and his
wife, of Peoria. this county, were yesterday ar

with intent to kill. 1t seems that this worthy

alleged that the Doctor. assisted by his wife,
beat Gilbert over the head and face with the hoe
which he was using. Ebbert is very badly hurt,
but it is thought to-day that he will recover.
Watson came to this county about nine months
ago, and has been practicing without a county
license, for which he has laid himself liable to a
fine. Both parties are in Jail awaiting a.pre-

cess beyond the expectation of the most sanguine

sand people present Although rain inter
fered with the rendition of about half of the
