Among the successful business institutions
of Toledo, Ohio, is that of Col. Frank j.
Cheney, the manufacturer Of Halls Catarrh
Cure. Under his wise and careful manage.
ment 1t has assumed gigantic proportions, and
offer in cash of $s5O, 600 for his plant, which
Mr.. Cheney declined to accept. A few years
ago he was seriously embarrassed, but un-
daunted by misfortune, he settled down to
hard work in pushing an article which he be.
heved possessed merit. Long ago he paid
every claim against him, dollar for dollar, and
now has a fortune left. All this he has &C
complished by persistent push and printers
ink. Among the great advertising firms OF
the country he stands in the front rank OF
advertisers. The press of Toledo. and its citi:
xens generally, rejoice at the success and good
fortune of Mr. Cheney, who is highly esteemed
among them for his business energy, as well As
his happy social qualities.-From an article In
the Toledo Bee, Nov. 10th.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
SAN FRANcIscote, May 11.-Senator
Pugh, of Alabama, in an interview, stated
that he was opposed to appropriations
being made for irrigation, as the govern
ment has no power to appropriate public
money fer retaining land for agricul'
tural purposes. The fact CT the govern
ment undertaking to furnish water as a
fertilizer of deserts, would open up an
unlimited field for appropriations. 1t
never will be an object of national con-
Germ to irrigate deserts.
Constitutional lawyers have always
maintained that the government las no
power to appropriate money for agricul-
tural uses. The government has the
right to appropriate money for making
surveys and estimates, 80 that individ-
uals may obtain information and appro-
pirate these lands in the best way for
themselves.
At the present time and for years to
come there would be no necessity Of
more land being brought into use, if all
the unoccupied lands which have passed
into private hands we're worked. 1t was
criminal for the government to give away
its public domain, but it must not try to
rectify the error by an unconstitutional
act.
When the time arrives for irrigation,
private capital will jump to meet the occa-
sion, as it always does when there is any
necessity for it.

A Pointer.

AS every reader of this paper knows,
it has become one of the fine arts 10
write attractive and interesting adver-
tisements-especially medical ones.
Now it seems TO us that if. for
instance, the worldwide advertisers of
Warmers Safe Remedies would adopt a
style whereby they could work in
startling story of, say-wolves, we be-
lieve the immense sales of their medi-
cines could be still more largely in
creased. We give them the benefit OF
the idea at any event. Let it commence
like this:
Patter Patter Patter
There 1T is again. 1t is not fifty yards
from where he last halted. The steps
are too light for those of an Indian. A
grizzly would rush upon its victim with a
roar of defiance and anger. A panther
would hurl himself through thirty feet OF
space, with a scream to unnerve the
hardest hunter. "Wolves," whispers
the hunter, as a howl suddenly bursts
upon his ear.
Wolves the gaunt, grizzly wolves Of
the foothills-thin and poor and hungry
and savage-the legs tireless-the mouth
full OF teeth which can crack the shout
der bone of buffalo. He can see their
dark forms fitting from point to point
the patter of their feet upon the parched
grass proves that he is surrounded-yet
no more in danger, and no more effectu-
ally surrounded than he who trifles
with the symptoms OF kidney
disease. And you, reader, know whether
or not you are victim to its in
sidious encroachment. If your back
aches, if your eyesight ia failing, if your
appetite is tickle, if your urine is not
clear and of pale straw color, do not
hesitate on the prairie of danger, but flee
to the nearest haven OF safety, and re-
sort to the only known cure for kidney
and liver troubles, Warmers Safe Cure.
1t is duty you owe, not only to your
self, but to your family and society at
large.
Delays are dangerous.
Had the traveller not been overtaken
in the night, and unarmed, the wolves
would have had no terrors for him. We
warn you just now, in broad daylight,
before the wolves of disease sink their
poisoned fangs deeply into your flesh,
and the night of death settles down upon
you, to stop your ears to prejudice and
bigotry, and to fly to safety through the
means we have pointed out.

SENSATIONAL TRIAL.
A Nephew Charged with the Muir
der of His Uncle.

DENVER, May IA special from Bur-
lington, small hamlet in the eastern
portion of the State, says: A prelimi-
nary examination in one of the most
sensational murder cases in the history
of the State, is being conducted at this
place. The story, in brief, is as follows:
Some months ago Henry Hatch, prom
inent citizen of New England, came to
Colorado and filed presumption claim
near Burlington. He lived alone, and
had made considerable improvements
upon the ranch.
On the evening of April 25th G. W.
Hatch, of Boston, who had been in
California, arrived at Denver, stopped
at leading hotel, and on Friday left
for Burlington to visit his uncle, Henry
Hatch. While there he gave the old
gentleman $50, and, after concluding his
visit, he returned to Denver on Sunday
morning. Monday he left for Omaha,
from thence going to Chicago and
Goshen, Ind, and Birmingham, Mich.
On Sunday morning, the day young
Hatch returned to Denver, the body Of
his uncle was found in his cabin by
couple of children of a neighboring
ranchman, with his brains knocked out
and his skull beaten to jelly.
AS no one was known to have visited
the old gentleman except his nephew,
suspicion pointed to him, and he was
arrested at Birmingham and returned to
Burlington yesterday morning, charged
with the murder of his uncle. The pre-
liminary examination began yesterday,
and will probably last several days. The
defense is being conducted by Hon. G. S.
Thomas, of this city, A. j. Poppleton,
Of Omaha, and other prominent attor-
neys.
The coroner's jury last night found
verdict that Henry Hatch came to his
death by being pounded over the head
with blunt instrument, in the hands of
party supposed to be G. w. Hatch.
The accused is about so years OF age,
and agent of the Travellers Insurance
Company, of Hartford, Conn, for the
New England States, and reported to
have an annual income of $25 900, and
is nephew, by marriage. of Major Pop
pleton, OF Omaha.
