1879 Arch ST., Philadelphia, Pa.


The original and only genuine Com
pouud Oxyg gen Treatment, that of Drs.
Starkey a. Palen, is a scientific adj lst-
ment of the elements of Oxygen aad Nj
trogen magnetized ; and the compound is
so condensed AMI made portable that 1t Is
sent all over the world.
It has been in use for more than twenty
years thousands of patients have been
treated, and over one thousand physicians
have used il, and recommend it,-a very
significant fact.
The great success of our Treatment has
given rise to host of imitators, unscru-
pulous persons; some calling their prep
arations Compound Oxygen, often appro-
priating our testimonials and the names
of our patients, to recommend worthless
concoctions. But any substance made
elsew here or by others, and called Conn
pound Oxygen, is spurious.
"Compognd 0rygen-Its Mode Of Action
and Resulls,p is the title of new book OF
200 pages, Published by Drs. Starkey "
Paien, which gives to all inquirers full III
formation as to this remarkable curative
agent, and record of surprising cures IN
a wide range of chronic cases-many OF
them after being abandoned to die by 9th
er physicians. Will be mailed free to any
address on application.

1ntendsd to Kill Sage.
DYNAMITE HURLED AT THE MILLIONAIRE
BY AN INSANE MAN.

New YORK, Dec. 4.-Russel Sage, the
millionaire broker, escaped death by
miracle today, his Office and the centre
Empire Building, in which be was, being
shaken to its very foundation by the ex'
plosion of dynamite bomb, hurled by
crank who made the demand upon Mr.
Sage for the immediate payment of 81 ,20O,-
900, the ultimatum being, in case of re-
fusal, the death of the millionaire, the
crank himself and those employed In the
office. Two persons were killed and SIX
were injured.
But one person was killed outright,
the man who threw the bomb. Benjamin
+. Norton, who was blown through the
window, a clerk in the Office of Mr.. Sage,
was removed to Chambers Street Hospit-
al, where he died at 1:30. while under
the operation for fracture of the skull.
The injured, besides Mr.. Sage, were:
Frank Robertson, clerk, twenty years
old skull fractured, will probably die.
Charles w. Osborn, Mr. Sage's cashier; ;
skull fractured, will probably die.
Charles J. Calhoun, clerk; lacerated
wound on the head
William R. Laidlaw, leg fractured.
COl j. y. ClOCuni a DiVbHoi 4" ia" VI
Mr.. Sage; cut on the head and face.
The interior of the Offices plainly shows
that the force of the explosion was somc-
thing terrific. All the PARTITION walls
were blown down and the sashes and
window frames forced outward. The
ceiling was blown down and the floor
forced downward, rendering it unsafe to
walk upon. Desks and chairs were over
turned and hurled into an indescribable
mass, and every piece of glass in the big
airshaft that ran to the roof was shiyered
into thousands of particles.
Fully $4,000 people were drawn to the
scene of the explosion, and for an hour
the police were powerless to bring order
ont of the chaos.
NEW YORK n. Y, December 9.-lt is
only a remote possibility that the
identity of the man who lost his lire in
attempting to blow Russell Sage into etern-
ity will ever be established. With each
day that passes the CHASTITY head loses
more of its shape, aud even now bears but
little likeness to what it was three days
ago. Coroner MESSENGER will take it In
charge today, and after measuring it and
making drawings of its peculiarities will
send it to the potter's field for burial.

a Novel Scheme.

A correspondent of the Highland Re-
cOrder says:
IA proposal will be made to the people
of Highland and Augusta counties TO lay
down standard gauge railroad track on
the bed Of the StauntOn and Parkersbnrg
turnpike from an accessible point on the
Baltimore & Ohio or Chesapeake u ONO
railway at or near Staunton, Va. aud pass
engines and cars from the terminal points
Over said road for II honrs Of the "a each
day, the time occupied to be from =. NJ.
10 a. M, leaving - honrs for the exclu-
sive rights of the people"
The proposition is novel one, but its
feasibility is another matter. in these
days of railroad enterprise, it IS doubtful
if road could be successfully operated on
such a system, ard there is not the slight
est doubt that a prolonged howl of indig-
nation would arise from those who wish
to put the turnpike to Its Legitimate use.
While we have a strong desire to see a
railroad penetrating the mountain fast
nesses of Highland, developing her mar
velous mineral wealth, the scheme pro-
posed above savors too strongly the ante
diluvian ages to merit serious consdera-
ton. What our Highland friends want IS
. railroad that can be used at all hours,
and not "night line. "-Shendn Ne'cs.
