The first difficulty l meet with in the

is to get my patients rid of the many
nervines. stimulants and sedatives which
they have usually become accustomed to
before consulting me- 1t would be diff
cult 10 overestimate the damage these
drugs do In such cases. Bromides valeri-
mates, choral, opium in every form, caf-
feline, cocaine and many others are all
alike of great injury and of no possible

similar remedies from the patient ana
Pe-ru-na in their stead. is the first thing
to be accomplished. Shortly after Pc
ru-na is begun the appetite becomes reg
ular, sleep natural and every disagree
able symptom improved. Pe-ru-na should
be taken Immediately before eating, be-
ginning with a very small dose and grad
ually increasing until two tablespoon
fuls are taken before each meal. Peru
ma is a perfect specific for these cases
and IS absolutely invincible. There are
no failures where these directions are
faithfully followed. The Improvement is
prompt and the patient can rest assured

INDIANA STATE SENTINEL, indianapolis Ind.

in command Of the deputies army with
Charles Adams in direct charge Of the
cavalry.
The fighting force on Bull Hill was
increased today by the arrival Of seven
ty-eight coal miners from Fremont cOun-
ty and now numbers about 1900 men.
It is reported here that over 1000 dep
uties have taken a train at Divide for
Midland, the terminus of the Midland
Terminal railway, and will proceed at
once to Bull Hill. The telegraph office
at Divide refused tc send out messages
and the sentinels will not permit any
travel between this city and Divide.
The deputy wounded in the skirrnish
today was taken to Midland. His name
has not been learned.
The strikers have spent the day In
perfecting their defenses
Their forces were increased tpday by
300 men, who came from the direction Of
Pueblo. Women and children have been
streaming toward this place from Victor
and Altman. The miners have loaded
beer kegs with dynamite, scrap iron and
spikes and have placed them on the
crests of Globe hill and Battle noun
tain.
The defensive movements Of the strik-
ers have been decided upon and are about
as follows: Mounted scouts who are
spread out in all directions to discover the
advance of deputies will hasten to camp
with the information. A pre-arranged
signal will be sounded on the steam whis-
tie at Pixies Peake mine when the strikers
will take their designated positions, The
skirmishers will fall back slowly, keep
ing the deputies engaged until they reach
the barbados erected at the hill. Be
hind the barricade the strikers will make
a stand defending themselves with guns
and bombs If driven from the barbados
they will hasten up to the slope TO the
fort.
Should the deputies follow them dyna-
mite mines, which have been planted at
every few yards, will be exploded. Can
mons and bombs will simultaneously deal
out death from the fort.
A delegation of citizens waited upon
the leaders of the strikers today and in
terceded for the release of Mr.. Woods,
who. they represented. had always en-
ployed union men and treated them well.
Upon learning that President Calder
wood of their union had not been ar
rested the strikers released their prfs-
oners, Messrs. Woods. Finch and VIII
kins, whom they were holding as hos
tages. Mr.. Finch left Immediately for
Colorado Springs, vowing to swear out
warrants for his captors.

MINERS SHOT DOWN.
Four Are Killed at POweIItOn, West
Virginia.

Four Are Killed at POWelltOn, West
Virginia.
CHARLESTON, w. Va. June A
telegram states that as the miners at
Powellton were leaving the mines tonight
several shots were fired at them from the
surrounding timber, resulting in four men
being killed. None Of the men who did
the shooting were discovered.
The proprietor of the Powellton mines
telegraphed the fact of the shooting to
the governor stating that he had asked
the sheriff for protection and asked if
nothing could be done to protect his men.
The governor replied that he had taken
the proper course in calling on the sheriff,
but that under the statute military aid
could only be extended when asked for
by the sheriff.
The governor said tonight that he is
determined to maintain the law at what
eI er cost. He has ordered three compa-
MES of militia to be ready 10 march at
a moments notice. Those in readiness
are the two Huntington companies and
one at Milton.
Evan Powell, the manager for the
Powellton company, telegraphed to
Point Pleasant tonight for bloodhounds
to be used in running down the men
that shot the Powellton miners.
At winifred 400 miners held a mass
meeting today,which was participated in
by some of the working Winifrede miners.
The latter have not expressed a willing
ness to come out, though the proprietors
of the mines offer objection. The
sheriff has not yet gone to Winifred,
but is in readiness to start with his
deputies at any time. The splint coal
operators of the Kanawha and New
River districts met in this city today and
decided to increase the price for mining
to % cents per bushel, the price for
merly paid. It is thought this N-ill cause
the splint miners to resume unless the
soft coal men prevent them.
