Mr.. Powers Has ordered the Cars-work
to BE Begun as Soon rs os,ible.
A FREE PRESS representative had an In
terview with Mr.. j. A. Powers Wedn esday
regarding the conclusions he had rea ched
about equipping the street railroad electric
ally and extending the lines. He said that
he had the matter OF extensions to the line
under discussion. A number of routes have
been considered, but mono had yet been def
nitely fixed upon.
Some of the details have already been at
tended to, however. He has ordered five
cars of the Gilbert Car company of Troy,
n. Y, the bodies Of which will be IS feet
and the total length 27 feet. seating about
26 passengers. They will be finished In
mahogany, with decorated ceilings of quar-
tered oak. The front platforms will be pro-
vided with gates similar to those In use on
the West End company's cars In Boston.
The trucks will be made by l.. c. White g.
Co. Of New York, and will also DO like the
ones used in the Hub. They will have the
patent life guards attached, and when the
brakes are applied the guards, which are in
front of the wheels, drop down within an
inch Of the track, thus making it impossi-
Bile for people to be run over. Mr.. Powers
said that he had to order these equipments
early because the works are crowded with
orders. The work Of transformation will
DO commenced az soon as possible.
While talking with the newspaper man Mr..
Powers received message from w. L.
Spier OF Glens Fsls, n. Y, saying that the
latter had decided to &c ept his offer for
young mare by Autograph with a record OF
200 The breeding OF the marc is gilt
edged, Bs will be seen. Mr. Powers bought
the mare to match a horse he already
owned, which has record of reading 40
miles in four hours He will bring both
horses to this city in the near future and
they will undoubtedly make one Of the
noblest teams in this vicinity.

THE HOUSTON CURE FOR ALCOHOL
Ism

How 1t Is Done-Ths Treatment Painless
and observation-disclosures Improve In
General neaIth-InvIRorating TONES
Build up the system, and tho Antid ote
For Alcohol Destroys the appetite for
l. quor.
The wonderful work of curing inebriates
at Concord, n H., by the Houston system
OF treatment, attracted the attention of the
entire medical profession OF New England.
Several successful physicians of Burlington
became interested aud a committee visited
Concord to investigate the results there. In
consequence of this visit they resolved to
establish a branch institute here in Burling-
ton. DR.. Briggs became president OF the
Vermont company and the treatment will
be given at DR.. Sparhawk's sanitarium.
The stock is practically all owned by Bur-
lington physicians who have every con.
hdsncs in the Houston cure.
In the Houston system OF cure for alco-
hoism NO pretensions are made to any SUI
pernetural assistance, although the results
OF the treatment bear the stamp of the mar
velous. The system is purely scientific and
the change is wholly phyeical with nothing
whatever to do with the coalition OF the
patients mind. In other words, whether
the patient believes or not that his appetite
is TO DO destroyed the effect is the same. He
finds himself surprised that he has no longer
a relish for that which has thousands Of
times furnished the only relief for an I'M
bearable craving.

No other remedy was ever so generally

of Dartmouth College, who first prescribed

TONERS.
The formula which has been freely given
to the medical profession, has been endorsed
from the frat; for Paine's celery compound
is not patent medicine, sarsaparilla, or
an ordinary tonic, but is the true remedy
for diseases arising from debility OF the ner-
vous system.
1t is positive cure for dyspepsia, bilious

Z. II. Judkins, VI. D., OF Portland, Me.

proprietary medicines or prescribe them for
their patients. Honest practitioners, how

The destruction Of the appetite for intoxi-
eating liquor is accomplished by the action
of antidotes on the deceased system antsg-
onzng the effects of alcohol, renewing the
waste and restoring to their normal condi-
ton the organs that had been injured and
diseased by the use of alcohol, and continued
to demand for qualification that which had
caused the destruction. 1t almost seems
like a paradox that alcoholism calls for and
demands the same substance for its graft

TIE FORM OF TREATMENT.

In order to cure disease there must be
disease to be cured. There is no better
evidence that drunkenness is q disease than
the fact that it can be cured, and cured by
medical treatment The principal antagon-
i2ing force is produced by hypodermic in
lection in the arm Of q small quantity of
liquid that at once enters into the circula-
ton of the blood, and finds Its way into
every department OF the system, restoring
the waste made by alcohol, and counteract-
ing its effects. Immediately after this op-
GRAFTON the patient is given an invigorating
tonic, prepared for the purpose of re-en
forcing the wasted tissue and assisting ma
ture in the restoration of lost force.
Many people inquire if this treatment
hypodermically is painful. Beyond a slight
singing sensation such as would be pro-
duced by the prick OF needle the patient
suffers no pain. in some systems there is a
light soreness after repeated operations, but
cases Of either Inconvenience or suffering
are rare.
The most searching investigation fails to
reveal a single instance where the least de-
gree of i'll effect has been traced to the treat
ment under the Houston system. Every
case indicates the opposite. In most cases
five distinct benefits come to the patient
who ia physically in low condition when
treatment is begun, as many OF them are.
First, the appetite for liquor will be de-
stroyed there will be an increased appetite
for food, the sense Of hearing improved; the
eyesight keener and refreshing sleep will
take tie place Of restless nights. These i'm
provements come from a general toning up
Of the system, a result of the change from
waste to supply, greatly aided by the In
MIGRATING tonic which begins its mission Of
restoring strength to wasted parts, while
the antidote is battling with the alcoholic
demands. This accounts for the rigid prog
ress made in health of the thousands who
have tahen the treatment.
THE SANITARIuM.
The location of DR.. Sparhawk's sanitar-
ium peculiarly fits it for the treatment Of
such patients. 1t Is furnished with ele-
gance and supplied with every convenience

Federal jurisdiction over the Pyramid
Lake Indian Reservation has prevented
me from %remedying the evil, existing
by reason of the dam at the mouth OF

removed by Congressional action, and
to that end will fully acquaint u rep

1t was not Federal jurisdiction over
the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation
which prevented Commissioner Mills
from remedying the evil existing by
reason of the dam at the mouth of the
Truckee river on said Reservation,
because in the first place in the dam is
not the mouth of the Truckee river,
and because in the second place. the
present Commissioner never, TO any
body's knowledge here, took any steps
to see if anything could be done, and
in the third place because a simple
courteous request made upon the In
dian Agent over the Fish Commits
s%ioner's Official title, would have re-
moved the whole trouble without
delay. The evil existed through ignor-
anee Of how a good f~ish-ladder should
be constructed, so the Agent says, and
if Commissioner Mills had been inter
ested enough to prescribe what was
necessary, it would have been done.
Such lack oil interest is negligence.
