Mr.. w. M. Terry, who has been in the
drug business at Elkton, KY, for the
past twelve years, says: "Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy gives better satisfaction
than any other cough medicine I have
ever Sold" There is good reason for
this. No other will cure cold so quickly;
no other is so certain preventive and
cure for Group; no other affords SO much
relief in cases of whooping cough. For

A Pennsylvania miner found frog in
cavity in lump of coal broken by him.
He placed the frog in an alright pan.
At first it showed no signs of life, but af-
ter being in the pan about six hours it
began to move about. After 10 hours
exposure to the light it was as lively as
modern specimen. In size the frog is
much larger than the ordinary pond frog,
and the color of the skin is brilliant. 1t

The Best Plaster.-Dampen piece of
flannel with Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and bind it on over the seat of pain. 1t
is better than any plaster. When the
lungs are sore such an application on the
chest and another on the back, between
the shoulder blades, will often prevent
pneumonia. There is nothing so good
for lame back or pain in the side. A
sore throat can nearly always be cured
in one night by applying flannel band

IN THE USUAL WAY.

Baptism of Blood Opening New Gold
Fields.
DENVER, Col, Dec. 29.-The San Joa-
gum camp has followed the precedents
of all great mining excitements by bap-
thing itself with human blood. A
courier arrived IN Bluff City early this
morning, and reported a terrible battle
yesterday, in which over a hundred
shots were exchanged. He reported
eleven men killed and large num-
Der wounded. George Ferguson, an
old prospectoT, and James Cody,
known as "Blind Jim," one of the
best known characters in Arizona and
New Mexico are among the slain. The
courier was in state of breathless eX-
element, and had left the grounds after
the last shot was fired to obtain medical
aid. A private dispatch this afternoon
from Dolores to John Eddy, Denver
mining man, confirms the terr1D
reports. The trouble grew out of a
dispute over claims which have
been staked out. There are near
ly 5000 men on the fields and
there has been very little attention paid
to the people stalking off claims. The
prospectors have simply devoted their
time TO prospecting ana securing the
sands to find the most promising loca-
tons. There have been q few claims
staked out, however, in places where
many dollars to the pan have been
found, but the lines of the claims, it is
said, were not reported, and a quarrel
ensued.
The direct trouble was the discovery
of large nuggets IN the bottom of a small
stream. Up to the moment Of the rich
strike everything was all right, but the
sight of the large nuggets had the same
effect on the prospectors as red rag on
a Mexican bull. Each man claimed that
he had first located the ground ard tc
settle the dispute guns were brought tC
| bear. There were over forty men en-
gagged in the terrible conflict. Few j
any escaped unhurt. The information
| of the trouble has caused great excite
ment in Denver among prospectors
who were skeptical of fabulous wealth
of the new gold fields. The battle vii
undoubtedly bring thousands of people
to the new camp, for old prospector
regard deadly conflicts over mining
claims as the best evidence of ricf

FATAL SHEBOYGAN FIRE.

Man suffocated IN Burning County
Asylum.
SHEBoYGAN, Wis, Dec. 30.-Fire &C.
Cured at an early hour this morning at
the county insane asylum, resulting in
the death Of one LGn and the serious
injury Of another. Chester Carver, the
night Waterman, aged GU years, was
sleeping in the room adjoining the
Mushroom, where the fire originated,
but was overcome with smoke before
he could make his escape and was
suhocated. Supt. A. J. Whiffen
was awakened by the cries OF
some Of the paints. He rushed to the
room where Carver was asleep and en-
deavored to get him out, but was driven
back by the dense volumes of smoke
and was almost suffocated himself. He
suffered serious injury by inhaling the
poisonous gas and may die. The fire
was extnguished with little difficulty.
The damage to property will amount TO
about $500. The blaze was caused by an
over-heated stove.

Milwaukee Rounds Ont the Year with
$1O5, 900 Loss.
MILWAUKEE, Dec. 26.-Intermingled
with the Joyous Christmas bells yester-
day afternoon was the unmusical chime
of the fire alarm, which was sounded
for two disastrous fires, the loss from
which will have to be added to the al
ready long list of large fires which have
visited Milwaukee during 1892.
The first fire was in the building
known as the keenan, -four mill, south
west corner of Chicago and East Water
streets, and while that structure was
still IN flames second clang of the fire
bells gave notice that the immense
plant Of the Gem Knitting & Fly-net
Company, 1874 to 189 Hanover Street,
was in flames. The loss on both build
ings and their contents will be a total
one, and will amount to at least $780,
coo.
The origin of the fire is shrouded in
mystery, and so quickly did the second
fire start after the first one was discov
cred that the suspicion was openly ex-
pressed by members of the fire depart
ment that both were of incendiary ORR
gin. Superintendent Curtin, of the
fire insurance patrol, holds the belief
most strongly, and said last night that
he could find no natural cause which
would explain the reason for either
fire. Certain it is that when the fire
engines arrived on the scene at both
fires the buildings were completely en-
veloped in flames and their destruction
