Nearly Frantic.

Has it ever been your misfortune to be
brought into frequent contact with per-
son excessively nervous? If so, you
must be aware that trivial causes, un-
noticed by the vigorous, drive nervous
invalid to the verge of distraction. Tt is
as unnecessary to particularize these as
it is impossible to guard against them.
The root of the evil is usually imperfect
digestion and assimilation. To assist
these functions, and through their re-
newed, complete discharge to reinforce
weak nerves, in conjunction with other
portions of the physical organism, is
within the power of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, systematically and continuously
used. There is no disappointment here
no matter what or how grievous the fail
ures of other so-called tonics. No seda-
tive or opiate-avoid both lean compare
with this inyigorating nerve tranquilizer.
Constipation, biiiousness, malaria, rheu-
matism, kidney troubles are cured by it.

LAWYER O'BRIEN.l
He Gives His Version of the Affair for,
Which He Was Arrested.

Which He Was Arrested.
Pursuant to instructions from Chief
of Police Crowley of San Francisco, Con-
stable Frank Swift yesterday arrested NJ.
l.. G. O'Brien, well-known attorney
who formerly lived here, but who, for
several years past, has had his office in
San Francisco.
The arrest was made on warrant
sworn out by lady of this city, Mrs.
Anna Wiessenhofer, who charges that
O'Brien, while acting as her attorney and
agent, collected some $l,700, which he
has failed to account for, although she
had frequently sought a settlement with
him.
Mr.. O'Brien was seen by RECORD
UNION reporter in the afternoon shortly
after his arrest. He had given bail for
his appearance, and said the charge was a
surprise to him. He had come to this
city to straighten out some real estate
matters, and had been here several days,
and was about to return to San Francisco
when arrested.
'There is nothing in this charge" he
said. Il was this woman's attorney for
long time and did business for her. She
has several times demanded certain sums
OF money from me, and have as often
told her to make out her account, and I
would make out mine, and If we could
not agree on a settlement l would be
willing to leave the matter to referee. /
have made this proposition to her present
attorney, and have told him that I would
agree to abide by the decision of any COM
petent and disinterested person, but they
would not agree to it. I told them if they
would do this, and the referee should
find that Mrs. Wiessenhofer had any
claim upon me, | would settle it
promptly"
Mr.. O'Brien further claimed that the
money collected by him was money he
had earned, and that the whole affair
was an ordinary transaction between
counsel and client. They had not agreed
upon any settlement because he could not
get his former client to consent to an
arbitration of their respective claims.
