A BAD CASE OF FLUx CURED.

My little boy. about eight months old, was
taken with 1ux. After several days. we
commenced giving Chamberlain's collie,
cholera, and diarrh1a remedy, according to
directions. We were very uneasy about the
child, and sent for a physician. told him
what we had been doing, and showed him
the medicine. He examined it, and told ms
the best thing we could do was to go ahead
and give the remedy. We used about half OF
a small bottle and cured the child, although
the child was so low that he had no use of
himself. We thought so much of our rem
edy that we would let no one else have it, |
told my wife few days ago that must write
and tell you what your medicine had done.

The daily newspapers of Colorado
keep standing head, 'State News"
and sometimes the head is about all
there is of state news. We have care

umn in our daily papers that Colorado
is merely fly speck in the matter of

place dead, with her throat cut.
Her diamonds and .jewelry were
gone, and the stranger had disap-
peared. A search was made for
the murderer, but without success. Some
time later Prado was arrested while try
ing to rob a jeweler. He shot the police
man in the jaw, but the latter succeeded
in getting him to the lookup. After his
capture Eugene Forestrier, a demi-
monde and Mauricessette Courouneau, a
young married woman of Bordeaux,
were arrested on charge of
RECEIVING STOLEN GOODS,
which had been given them by Prado. 1t
then developed that Eifgenie was his mis-
tress and Mauricessette his fiancee. The
latter's statement in court was strange
romance of love and crime. Prado had
confessed to Eugene the murder of Marie
Aguetant, and she in turn told the story
to Mauricessette, who was prevailed upon
by priest to whom she confessed to
make her statement public. His
trial and conviction soon fol-
lowed. The case has raised Eugene For
estrier to the pinnacle of success in
the world in which she lives. Mauric es-
settle Couronueau, though she is the
mother of Prado's illegitimate child,
has received score of offers of mar
riage, but she has been kept in seclusion
by her mother. Prado' s Spanish wife
was to obtain a divorce and move to
Paris. The mystery of PradO s birth and
of his adventures before the fateful night
when Marie Aguetant was murdered was
never unravelled during his life and now
the guillotine has made it an unsoluble
enigma

him that if his evidence proved satisfac-

played 'possum with the agent for time,

DALLAS, Ten. Dec. 2S.-The fun at
the Glen Lea amphitheater opened up
this afternoon with more than usual in
tereSt The attraction to-day was Il main
between Staufield COnnelee of East
land and PIckens s. Co. of Sulphur
Springs. The fight was the best five out
of nine for $50 fight and 5000 in the
odd.
First Fight-Stanfield showed n red
dominique weighing i've pounds fifteen
ounces, against which Picieus pittad n
red shawlueck of the same weight. Both
did splendid work with the CATTLE, but,
after about six minutes of hard lighting,
the shawlneck laid his antagonist out.
Second Fight-Stanlield entered a
beautiful brown red, weighing five
pounds, nine ounces, and PiclenS showed
Il vicious looking dominique, two ounces
lighter. The Pickeus cock did not de-
ceive his appearance, for he fought with
vig0r, and killed the brown red III four
minutes.
Third Fight-Stanffel pitted dom
Unique, weight 5.l2, against PickenS'
brown red, weighing 5.l3la Won by
the latter in six minutes.
Fourth Fight-StanGeld came TO the
front this time with dark red new
mack, weighing 4.l0Ia. Picl1ens
brown red was an ounce heavier,
but the little newmack shuftled the
cold steel into his antagonist III Il butcher
house style, and the latter, though quite
an expert himself, had to give way after
a struggle lasting eleven minutes.
Fifth Fight-Stanfeid blue -domin-
ique, weighing sos, was laid 'oyt by.
Picken S brown red, 5.09}a, i'll about
three minutes.
Sixth Fight-stanfleld again brought
out dark red newnack weighing .l0la.
Pickens pitted a brown red weighing
8 .0S. The newmack put the gatfle into
the brown red 5 lung in thirty seconds.
Seventh Fight-Stantield s blue domin-
ique, .04, was killed i'll one minute by
Pickens brown red of same weight.
This made FIVE for Pickens and gave
him the main. There were some good
hack fights tonight.
