The First Husband of n Rochester widow
Returns as From the Grave.
ROCHESTER, NY, November 22.-There
was brought to light here to-day, through
the return of man who has been absent for
13 years, an Enoch Arden case with several
variations. In July, 1888. Thomas N. Will
cox, capitalist, reputed to be worth $780,
600, and a supposed widower, died, leaving
the most of his property to his son, Fred
erick P. Wilcox. In August, 1884, : suit
was begun against Wilcox by Mrs. Nellie
Blackford, widow OF 35 years, for her
dover right in the estate. Mrs. Black-
ford asserted that she was the wife of
Wilcox. and that she had been secretly mar
ried to him in 1881, in Montreal, on board a
steamer living at the dock. Subsequent tes-
timony went to show that the only witnesses
to the ceremony were the engineer and stew
ard of the steamer. Young Wilcox fought
the claim, and legal battle was carried on
in several courts, in which seven OF the
leading lawyers of the city were employed
ON both sides. The suit was begun in the
special term of the Supreme Court, and
finally ended in a compromise, by which
Mrs. Blackford, or Wilcox, received $780,
900. In the course of the trial evidence
was given to show that Blackford, her first
husband, had gone West in 1876 and had
died there.
This morning a thin-faced man, with
black eyes, black hair and black mustache,
appeared at Mrs. Wilcox's house. 1t was
the husband, who has neither been seen nor
heard OF since 1876, and who was supposed
to have committed suicide. His wife nearly
went into Mysteries, but afterward received
him affectionately.

SHARP shooting pains would take me in the

AN IMPORTANT CASE
Mr. F. C, ShaTer Willingly Ap-
pears as a Witness.
SOME POSITIVE EVIDENCE.

The machine shops of the Panhandle
Railroad Company, located at No. 10 Wash
ington street, are one OF the points of inter-
est to strangers visiting this city. Here the
iron road horses are brought in to undergo a
training and put in condition.
The writer had the pleasure of meet
ing Mr.. F. G. Schaffer, an employe of the
shops, and from him obtained some very in
teresting information.
''Mv trouble, said Mr. Schaffer, "began,
think, about two years ago. At least that
is when I first knew exactly what it was.
How long had had 1t before that 1 do not
know. 1t was chiefly in my head at first.
had dull, heavy pain over my eyes. Ny
nostrils would clog up, first on one side and
then on the other.
"My sight became dim. Ny eyes would
fill with water and become so weak and in
famed that 1 could hardly see to read. If
would overtax them in the least by read
ing they would ache and pain me so that 1
could hardly bear it. Sounds like ringing
and buzzing would come in my ears and I
could see that my hearing was being al
fected.
GAS the trouble extended my throat be-
came very seriously involved. 1 would
catch cold on the slightest provocation. My
throat would feel raw and lnhamed and
sometimes would get so sore that it would
be hard for me to swallow. In spite of
everything could do the trouble kept get
ting stronger hold upon me-
II had to be continually hawking and
raising to clear my throat Something
would seem to stick there could not get up
or down. 1 could feel the mucus dropping
back, and sometimes 1 would have choking
and coughing spells that would leave me
feeling miserable.
"My stomach became very much de-
ranged. There would be feeling of dis
comfort and nausea after eating; and what
did eat seemed to lie there like a load or
weight. Frequently 1 would sit down to the
table feeling very hungry. Then 1 could only
eat a few mouthfuls. The sight or smell Of
food seemed to take away my appetite.

UPON THE HEARING.
Showing the cOnnsction and the Signs Of
Progress.

Progress.
A large proportion of the troubles of the
ear may be traced to catarrhal affections.
Many sufferers from catarrh will testify to
the peculiar effect that the disease seems to
have even in its early stages upon the hear
ing. The roaring and buzzing in the ears is
one of the most familiar symptoms to ca
taTrhal sufferers.
Sometimes the sound which they hear in
their ears is described by them as steam
going out of pipe" "the sound of great
waterfall, sounds of water overf1owing, {"
or ''steam from a locomotive" as buzzing,
singing, ringing and cracking; sometimes
like the sounds in shell held at the ear,
or the bursting of bubbles.
Sometimes the sounds are of beating.
pulsating, throbbing character, in cases
keeping time with the regular beating of the
heart. Sometimes there are several different
sounds, such as pulsating and buZzing together
in some cases the sounds are SO intense as to
render life burden, and there are instances
on record where the distracted sufferers have
resorted to suicide to rid themselves of them.
There can be no more important predisposing
or exciting cause in producing ear diseases
than catarrh in the nose and throat The
symptoms of catarrh itself can hardly be mis-
taken. In many cases the patients have pains
about the chest and sides, and sometimes in the
back. They feel dull and sleepy; the mouth
n
sort of sticky slime collects about the teeth.
The appetite is poor. There is feeling like a
heavy load on the stomach sometimes faint
"all-gone" sensation at the pit of the stomach,
which food does not satisfy. The eyes are
sunken. the hands and feet become cold and
clammy.
After while a cough sets in, at first dry but
after few months it is attended with green
ish-colored expectoration The patient feels
tired, all the while, and sleep does not seem to
afford any rest. After a time he becomes
nervous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil
forebodings. There is a giddiness, a sort of
whirling sensation in the head when rising up
suddenly. The bowels become costive, the skin
is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes
thick and stagnant; the whites of the ewes be-
come tinged with yellow; the kidney secretions
become scanty and high-c0lored, depositing a
sediment after standing. There is frequently
a splitting up of food, sometimes with sour
taste and sometimes with sweetish taste, this
is frequently attended with palpitstion OF the
heart and asthmatic symptoms

Results Of Home Treatment.

Last May Miss Lottie J. Forker. of 299 Arch
street, Meadville, Pa, placed herself under
treatment by mail with Drs. Copeland & BlaiI
for her catarrhal trouble.
On June 9 she wrote: "Your medicine ID
doing me good do not feel so tired, and my
headaches have ceased"
August 26 her letter stated: 81 feel quite like
different woman from the one l was when ]
commencedyouT treatment"
Mr.. M. Q. Wilson, who commenced using the
home treatment early in July, wrote on the 25th
of the same month: Il am improving steadily;
feel much better than have for years past"
August l6 he wrote: Il am feeling like a
different being from the one was when com.
menced your treatment, and am glad to be able
to make this statement
