Compound. and do not hesitate to
prescribe it in my practice all the

Wherever the man OF news went he
met not only emphatic confirmation of
the statements that had found their
way into public print, but large num-
bers OK prominent people who spoke
from personal experience and wide
spread observation, were everywhere
cheerfully ready to go before tho pub
lie with their unqualified words of
praise. While these instances are too
numerous to mention it should be stated
that the list includes such names as Mr..
George Wright, of the renowned firm
of Wright * Ditson;. w. H. Forbes.

At this season of the year, when the
system requires assistance to success

value of great discovery like Paine's
Celery Compound can be readily under
stood. The gratifying cures which are
taking place on every hand each day,
all prove its health-restoring and life
giving power, and that, indeed, the
statements which have aroused 90 much
interest are simple photographs Of the
truth. Its advent marks an era in
medical practice and scientific discov-
cry, and makes il possible for any one
to feel as strong and vigorous in March
or April rs at any season OF the year.

The publications In this city the past

Every reader OF newspapers nowadays
seems 70 appreciate The fact that many

there is 80 much preaching and 90 little

Acting on the conviction that no
well-conducted journal can Afford to
make statements that cannot be sub

public favor that cannot endure the
broad hight OF day. an Official lnvestiga-
ton Was instituted by this paper TO
thoroughly test the truth Of the al
legged discovery alluded to. When cer-
tam statements awaken public interest,
then the truth or falslty OF these state
men,s becomes . matter Of still greater
public interest.
The name of DIR. A. w. X. Newton,
52s Tremont-st., having been used in
connection with the matter in question,
he was the first person visited. The re-
porter presented himself 70 the doctor

lowing conversation occurred:

that he is in pretty serious condition .
''But what can you give him in the

The doctor seated himself at his desk
dipped his pen IN the inkstand, and
wrote ont q prescription. Handing 1t
to the reporter, he said:

Farmer,

CHICAGO, Jan. 10.-The harvesting
trust has gone to pieces, and before very
long the American Harvester company
will be thing of the past. 1t was only
a couple of months since it was brought
into existence with a capital of $55, 000,-
600. Things went swimmingly for .
while and arrangements were in prog
ress for dispensing with thousands Of
travelling men and other employees and
of centralizing the business. This
week the representatives of the
firms in the combine came together at
the Auditorium hotel, when it was de-
veloped that the majority of the direc-
tors had mapped out line of policy by
which prices to the farmers were to be
materially raised and the supply houses
consolidated. There was vigorous re-
monstrnace to this course on the part Of
the McCormicks, the.Deerings, the Whit
man.Barnes concern, and the Ohio house
of Warder, Bushnell & Glesncr, and
after stormy meeting of several hours
duration they withdrew. This morning
thew served notice of their withdrawal
from the company. 1t is given out that
a war to the knife. between the different
concerns is now inevitable. There will be
increased production and low prices, and
the farmer will get the benefit.

G. p. Huntington Backing Hopkins In
His Contest.
New YoRK, August 18.-The Journal
says: 1t is rumored in connection with
the Searles-H Hopkins will controversy,
that Collins p. Huntington has made
overtures to the gentlemen representing
Edward F. Searles, to settle the case
outside of the courts. The basis of this
settlement was the payment OF $3,O0O,-
600 to Timothy Hopkins, of San Fran
cisco, the disinherited adopted son OF
Mrs. Hopkins Searles. As Hopkins
holds an official position in the South
ern Pacific railroad company, it was
clearly in Huntington's interest to have
him obtain control of Mark Hopkins
stock. Huntington foresaw this, and
promised to stand by young Hopkins,
eveL to the court of last resort, in the
event of bringing contest.
Boston, August 18.--There can be no
hearing or probating OF the will of Mrs.
Hopkins-Se of Methuen, until the
required publication OF citation is made.
The will will be presented for probate
at Salem, Massachusetts,, Monday, Sep
tenber 9TH.
There can be no appeal until there is
a decree. The only thing that probable
c0ntesting parties may do is to enter
their appearance.
