which was adopted:

be compelled to give up the keys and
records of the office, peacefully II he
will, but be must give them up. The
board then adjourned, but immediate
ly, with Secretary Dolquhoun, went
into q secret session. What was done
at the secret session none OF the mem
bers would say, but from the conyer-
sation OF come OF the members after
ward IL was understood that the board
had decided to keep Lee out OF the
Office and also to get possession OF the
records. They would not say how

rscspe of Prisoners.

The report that prisoners have been
and are constantly escaping from that
malignant gaoler, liver complaint, Is
fully uorroborated by the seif-liberated
csptives. Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters
are, they say, the means by which they
get rid OF their fetters. Few alto
gether avoid the bondage OF this ail-
ment, and few are unacqunlnted with
Its signs, viz: pain through the right
side and shoulder blade, ,furred tongue,
yellowness OF the eyeballs and skin,
sour breath, sick headache, dyspepsia
and constipation. Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters puts prompt period to
these, brings them to full stop In
short order. Whether the trouble Is
chronic or temporary, this medicine is
equally effective, regulating athe liver
and bowels thoroughly. It is likewise
a sovereign remedy for rheumatism,
kidney complaint malaria heartburn
and nervousness.
