writes as follows about Mr.. Charles B.

and read on very large house this sign ::

too busy to have a good talk about the land
we love. the dear old Valley of Virginia.
Shortly after the war Mr. RouSs landed in
New York with nothing in hi, pocket but

dry goods house in the United states. Be-
Ing furnished with trustworthy guide I

two underneath. He keeps everything, yet
he keeps nothing; for quick sales and small
profits is his motto. He does the work every
day of about IL men. He lives in his store.
Has enough energy, perseverance, pluck
and push for whole regiment of men. he
is also the happy possessor of a heart, a
warm, beating, pulsing heart, and his liberal
gifts 70 his old home town of Winchester,

III an interview with d leading drug house
the New York World, Nov. o., 1890, gives the
following comment on the proprietors OF re-
liable observation-disclosures:
"He is a specialist, and should know more
OF the disease he actually treats than the
ordinary physician; for while the latter
may come across say fifty cases In q year OF
the particular disease which this medicine
combats, its manufacturer investigates
thousands. Don't you suppose his pre- crip-
tion. which you buy ready made up for SO
cents, Is likely to- do more good than that
OF the ordinary physician, who charges you
anywhere from So to SO for giving Ii, and
leaves you to pay the cost OF having 1t pre-
j ared2
1.-THE patent medicine man, too, usually.
has the good sense to confine himself TO or
binary, everyday diseases. He Leaves to
tbs physician cases in which there is i'm
ncdiate danger to life, such as violent fe-
yass. He does this because, in the treat-5
ncnt Of such cases, there arc other ele-
mcnts OF Importance besides medicine, such
a proper dieting, good nursing, knoWl-
4 lie Of the patients strength and so on.
!, acre there is no absolute danger to life.
where the disease is one which the patient
can diagnose for himself or which some
physician has already determined, the pat
ent medicine maker says fearlessly: i
h we a preparation which Is better than
any other known and which will cure yous
Iii nine cases out OF ten his statement is
tue"
This is absolutely true as regards the
or at remedy for pain. St. Jacobs Oil. Ii
cal assert without fear of contradiction,
that it is prompt ad permanent cure OF
pain. 1t can show proofs of cures of chronic
Gu ses OF 90, 80 and 40 years standing. In
truth it rarely ever fails If used according
to directions, and large proportion OF
cures is made by half the contents of o
sirgle bottle. 1t is therefore the BEST

THE MARKETS,
Sioux City Live Stock.

UNION STOCK YARDS, SIOUX CITY, Feb.
2S.-Hogs-Estimated receipts, 1900. Buy
ers had twenty loads to select from at the
opening this morning. All three OF the
packing houses were represented. There
was a brisk feeling in the early bids, buy
ers evidently sharing with each other the
determination to take up all there was In
in sight, and offerings Of steady prices with
last nights close were freely given.
This was evidently satisfactory to first
hands, for most of them let go and
were in on the forenoon market. A load OF
light, upon which no offer could be obtained
yesterday, was grabbed quick this morning
at $3.50. Taken altogether, the day was
the most satisfactory in the month. The
close was steady in the forenoon sales. !.
Quotations: Heavy, $3.4003.45; mixed
and light, S3.3093 40.
Cattle-Estimated receipts, 300. There
were few buyers to-day. Outsiders In par
ticular are apparently well stocked, for
their purchases amounted to comparatively
nothing. The Dressed Beef and Canning
company was about the only buyer for
butcher stuff, for which strong prices were
paid. Attractive stock cattle held firm.
The general run, however, was very light,
scalpers doing the bulk Of the trading.

And This, Too, In Face OF his Color Be-
ing Black.
New YORK, Feb. g. Miss Ella Tice,
of Williams Bridge, white, and pretty,
has startled the neighborhood up there
by running away from her home and
marrying a colored coachman named
James Randolph. Miss Tice is the
daughter of the late Isaac B. Tice, in
ventor Of the machine for gauging
whisky which is now In use by the
government, After her fathers death
her mother married Thomas HYDE, a
Westehester county politician. Mr..
Hyde is fond of playing cards, and as
Randolph is one of the best players in
the neighborhood, Mr.. Hyde used to
have him at his house to play. In that
way the coachman got acquainted with
Miss Tice, and they met frequently
afterward at the Baptist church, which
both attended regularly. Randolph is
employed by Mr.. Stickney, Broadway
merchant who lives sont there. Mr..
Hyde says he will have the marriage
annulled on the ground that Miss Tice
is not of age and her parents had not
consented to the marriage.
