IN her wish to regain her ancient pres

who are steadily working out their own

rolling forth lugubrious ditties OF the
yreat deeds of Mako Kralyevitch and

this trait which most utterly destroys
his chances of improvement. 1t is not

#. A. Walton, Money Clerk of the Pacific
Express Company at Dallas, Tex, skips
with $4,000 Deposited by q Bank.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. CT. A. Walton,
money clerk in the Pacific Express
Company's Office at Dallas, Tex, has alb
seconded with 5000 deposited with the
company by the City National Bank
of Dallas for transportation to the
Commercial Bank of this city. Walton
was employed by the American Ex-
press Company five years at Ionia, Mich,
and went into the Pacific Company's
employ at Dallas from Wells, Fargo &
Co. His father resides at St. Joseph,
Mo. He has been traced to the Indian
Territory and a detective is on his
track. He left Dallas last Sunday even
ing.
The exposure of Walton's crime has
caused the biggestsensation experienced
here since "Jim Cummings" robbed Mes
& San Francisco road of $4,000 or
$4,000 OF the Pacific Express Com
pany's money. The Commercial Bank
was expecting a remittance of $50, 900
from the Dallas bank, and, receiving
but $4,000 in gold in canvass bag,
notified the bank of Dallas. Learning
from Dallas that $4,000 had been
shipped February / in two pack
ages - the $4,000 in gold and
$4,000 in greenbacks inclosed in
regular express package-tho St. Louis
bank notified Superintendent L. A.
Fuller, of the Pacific Express Company,
Of the loss. On receipt of this de.
:idedly alarming information Superin-
tendent Fuller telegraphed Assistant
Superintendent Aiken at Dallas, mott
Tying him of the shortage and asking
him to investigate and forward informa-
ton as soon as possible. Mr. Aiken re-
piled that there was no trace of the miss
ing package there, and that Walton had
been missing since last Sunday night.
Walton made out two receipts,
which were on file in the Dallas office
one for SIS, 900 and one for $35, OOO-on
one blank. On the duplicate forwarded
to st. Louis, however, no mention was
made of the $35, 900. The discov.
cry of this fact revealed Walton's
guilt, and the assistant superintend-
ent telegraphed Mr.. Fuller that Walton
had stolen the missing money. Descrip-
lions of the absconding money clerk
have been sent everywhere by Superin-
tendent Fuller.

are permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. e.-The Will
annette river at this city is higher than
1t has been since the great food of 1861.
The rise is caused by the unusually
heavy rains and the melting of
snow in the mountains. In this
city all the merchants along the
water front and for two streets
back from the river have been COM
PEELED to suspend business and move
their stocks to higher places. The
water rose so rapidly that many of them
were unable to move their goods out,
and in consequence heavy damage will
be the result. The only means of travel
on Front street, the principal wholesale
street of the city, is by boats.
Throughout Willamette valley heavy
losses are reported. Many bridges have
been washed away and large amount
the river has been ruined. The wagon
bridge across the Willamette river at Sa-
lem was swept away Monday night The
structure was about 1000 feet long. 1t
cost in the neigh borhood of $75, O00 No
less than 100000 feet of saw logs
have been swept away on the Villa
mette and Columbia rivers in the last
few days. Large quantities of sawed
lumber and number of saw-mills on
the river have also been carried away.
A dispatch from McMinnville, Ore,
says that the town of Wheatland is al
most swept away, much stock drowned
and large amount of grain destroyed.
RosEBURa, Ore, Feb. 6.-The most
disastrous flood since 1851 has occurred
here. Most of the bridges in this vicin-
ity have been swept away. The WOODEN
mill is total wreck. Loss, $50, 900. No
loss of life is reported.
SPOKANE FALLS, Wash, Feb. 6.-The
town of Burke, I. T., in the Coeur
d'Alene mining district, has been nearly
destroyed by disastrous avalanches.
Half the business houses are in ruins.
Three men were killed, and the terror
stricken inhabitants have fed to the
towns of Gem and Wallace, fearing a
repetition of the disaster. Particulars
are neager, as wires to all points in the
mines have gone down, leaving no
means of communication. The disasters
occurred Tuesday afternoon and Wednes-
day morning. With scarcely a moments
warning tremendous mass of snow and
rocks swept upon the town from the
west side of the narrow gulch in which
it is situated. Five men were
buried beneath the snow. Two
were rescued, but the others are dead
and their bodies have not yet been re-
covered. The Inflated town lies in a
narrow gulch, through which Canyon
creek pours it's waters into the south
fork of the Cmur d. Alene 1t had about
200 inhabitants, who have deserted

DEAR SIR have been using it on
the strongest point-on myself from one
half to one and quarter hours a day

perfectly .astonished at the result upon
my general system as well as local
trouble (dyspepsia).
I assure you l have never felt so
well in twenty years as 7 do now. It
seems as if a new world had opened
upon me and youth had been restored
as if BY A GENT WITH HIS WAND. I
have cause to become an enthusiast,
which I am indeed, and now begin to
think you did not say enough in its
praise.

GENTLEMEN-In explanation to the
foregoing letter it is proper to state
that the Electropoise has been in use
by DR.. K. but five days. having been
erected in his Office on July Goth.
He said II used to be such a ran
tankerous allopath that I would not
look at homeopath across the
street. But I found that they could
effect cures that | could not with my
methods, SO I went to their college and
graduated. Now, if you will show me
a still better method, I will adopt it in
my practice and advocate its use. :
He has a large practice among the

The above is portrait of the late Prof. Edward
E. Phelps, NJ. D., LII. D., of Dartmouth College.
He was strong, able man. who stood high in the
literary and scientific worlds. 1t is not generally
KNOWN but it is nevertheless, the truth that Prof
Phelps was the discoverer of what is known to the
Medical profession and Chemists universally as
Paine's Celery Compound, unquestionably one Of
the most valuable discoveries of this century. This
remarkable compound is not nervine, an essence,a
sarsaparilla, orany devised article but discovery,
and it marks a distinct step in medical practice
the treatment of nervous complications, and the
greatest Of all modern diseases-Paresis. 1t has
been freely admitted by the best medical talent in
the land, and also by the leading chemists and
scientists that for nerve troubles, exhaust
ion insomnia, debility, seniity, and the dread
ed and terrible Paresis, nothing has ever been
discovered which reaches the disorder and restores
health equal to this discovery of Prof Phelps.
Paine's Celery Compound is now being prepared
in quantities. and can be procured at any reputable
druggists. An attractive bunch of celery is to be
found on every wrapper. 1t has become specially
popular among professional men. mind workers,
ladies burdened with exacting social duties, and
frequenters of the leading clubs.
