Indigestion

IS not only distressing complaint, Of l itself, but, by causing the blood to become depraved and the system en- feebled, is the parent of innumerable maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best cure for Indigestion, even when complicated with Liver Complaint, is proved by the following testimony from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Broadway Centre, Mich.:-
 oliver complaint and indigestion made my life burden and came near ending my existence. For more than four years suffered untold agony, was reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly had strength to drag myself about. All kinds of food distressed me, and only the most delicate could be digested at all. Within the time mentioned several physicians treated me without giving re- lief Nothing that took seemed to do any permanent good until commenced the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which has produced wonderful results. Soon after commencing to take the Sarsapa- riIla I could see an improvement in my condition. My appetite began to return return all the food taken, my strength 1m- proved each day, and after few months of faithful attention to your directions, I found myself 8 well woman able to attend to all householo duties. The medicine has given me 9 new lease of 1ife."

 When ssthe land WAS red with judgments, '' when it seemed hurrying to its death those in the school of war, there were those to say: "God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God shall help her, and that right carly"
 And he did help her, did he not, in that dark, dark day that some of us remember so wells But in the cloud-though dark and heavy--there was ''a Ight", and it's beams were healing; none so healing; quickening, none so quickening; cheering, none 50 cheer ing. Strong arms held that light in the storm that it should not go out. Brave hearts felt the full force of the heroic words: "Our federal Union;" s'It must be preserved" ;" And these, having in them the ring of the true metal were ready & t1 add: 1n nhH. the name me sounded" Goodbye, mother; goodbye, wife; goodbye, lover; goodbye. children. We go to the front: go to fight under the old banner in the storm and in the sunshine; go with great vow in our hearts: to con- quer or die. Does someone say. "My hus- band was in the Union army" "A soldier gooo ana 1albnIul; blesseo aIb tnou auonS women." Does another say, "Ny boy was with Grant in the Wilderness" or with Sher- man in his march to the sea. Blessed art thou among mothers. If your loved ones lived, give God thanks. If they died, could they have died more noblyi

New ORLEANS, Sept. 2-The Tunes-D Democrat
commenting editorially on the Gouldsboro riot
closes as follows: The subsequent act OF van
-dalism Of burning the negro church close TO
the scene OF the disturbance was a wanton
atroeity. in keeping with the similar crime OF
incendiarism which occurred in the Gretna
riot few months ago. Whatever may be said
OF the indiscrImInate firing near the Texas Pa
cltic railroad not q word can be uttered
in palliation or justification of this last grave
ohense. Ii was u wanton. del b. rate. .detestable
crime, and the men who committed il are q dis
grace to the state aud their race.
The whole affair should be submitted 10 the
most rigid investigation by the local md state
authorities and those who can be pointed out
and found responsible for il should be pun
ishen 10 the very extremity OF the law.
We had hoped that the difficulties in the
suburbs of this city on the other side of the
river had been permanently settled They have
been begun afresh. apparently by the same
hoodlum element that undertook to clean
out Gretna by the lndiscrimlnate use of the
shotgun and the torch. Ii is time now for the
state authorities to look into these troubles and
TO see that the public peace is preserved and
that the rioters Of both races are properly
punished.

TO PROTECT NAVAL GUNS.
A Double Curved Turtle- Back Turret ia
be Tested.

Next Wednesday there will be test at An
napolis Of the defective armor designed by
Chief Engineer Clark of the navy. This armor
has been Navy department bugbear for sew
erai years. In 1893 Congress appropriated .
sum of money to defray the expenses of max
ing and testing the armor, but for some reason
ii was not done. The case finally drifted into
the hands Of the naval advisory board. the
turret was at last constructed by the bureau Of
ordnance, and now it is to be tested. The
armor consists Of q double-curved turtle-back
turret designed for the deck of ship to pro-
tect gun. 1t is inches thick. The inventor
claims that it will defect Q shot that would
penetrate 13 inches of iron.
THE GUN TO BE USED
will be one of the new S-inch breech- loading
rifles recently turned out from the ordnance
factory in this city. 1t will be planted $50 yards
from the turret and loaded with light charge
OF powder. sufficient to drive the shot through
the l3 inches specified. Seven shots will be
nred unless the target is broken before that
point is reached. The inventor has
requested that if the turret is intact after the
seven shots have struck 1t, it will be fred at
until destroyed, but there is feeling among
the officers at the department that the first
shot will settle the matter. In case the turret
stands the test it will probably be adopted for
use on some of the new vessels. The expert
mental turret to be fred at Wednesday cost

HOW THE sHIr-BUILD1so INDUSTRY LEFT LONDON.
Mr.. Wisby. an employing wharfinger, says:
The ship-building interest was forced out Of the
Thames generation ago by just such a strike
and there does not appear to be even a possi-
bility OF its ever returning. Over FORTY thousand
people were directly or indirectly supported by
its industries. In the new localities to which it
took its flight only the skilled London work
men we're wanted or had means to follow it. and
those who were forced to remain in London
fell into misery and often into crime The dock
laborers here can hardly become any poorer

NEW DEPARTURE IN PAVING.

Of the eobble being filled above the
