The Belgian Government Subjects American
Cattle TO as Days Quarantine.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-A cable dispatch
from the United States minister at Brussels
states that an order of the Belgian govern
ment subjects all American cattle to As
days quarantine. An exception is made of
cattle en- route before August 80. but this
only On condition that they be killed at a
public slaughter house on arrival.
DR.. Salmon, chief of the bureau of ami
NAL industry, said: 1--WE are building up
quite trade in cattle with Belgium, line
of cattle ships having been established be-
tween New York Antwerp. This order if
carried out will destroy this trade. The
alleged cause of these restrictions is the
sickness of some cattle recently landed
from the United States which some wise
acre pronounced contagious pleuro-pDeu-
monia. The cattle in question were part
of shipment sent from Kentucky and none
of them could possibly have been subjected
to infection"

it is safe to say that the aperture in the
window was made by piece of triangular
shaped coal about the size of a gents
watch, which was found upon the office floor
Thursday morning. The curtain was cut in
form of a cross. Fine glass covered the
window sill, the hole in the glass being
about the size of ofman's hand. The missile
must have been thrown by person from
the walk on the railroad rather than from
the ground just back of the store. As Mr..
Dingley is a man who has few if any enc

thrown more out of spirit of mischief than
with any intent to do dersonal injury. Mr..
Dingley was at his place of business all day

BIG LABOR DAY PARADE
Assured at New Bedford Where So Many Are
Idle.

New BEDFORD, Mass, Aug. 30-As a
result of the fact that about 1000 workers
in this city are out of employment, the
Labor day parade will be one of the great
est ever seen in this vicinity, if not in
Massachusetts. The estimates of the
strength of the parade vary between 5000
and 10000. but the most rational guessers
place it at 5000. Every labor union in
New Bedford will participate. The fea-
ture of particular novelty will be the turn
out of women members of the weavers and
carder room unions, and if the weather is
good they will come QUE in full force.
There is no change in the strike situation
in this city.

Digestion, heartburn, headache, and sleep

aess | consulted the best of authorities on
the diseases of the digestive organs, spec
ialists of great renown pronouncing my
case hopeless, some asserting that my
stomach was infested with cancers. have
tried countless numbers of so called medi-
icines that were recommended to me or
otherwise brought to my notice. Like
a drowning man catching at straw
would buy bottles after bottles
of Sarsaparila and other medicines | saw
advertised in the papers, giving them all
a thorough trial. All of these, although
highly spoken of by persons whose integ-
rity | could not doubt, proved worse than
useless in my case and / kept growing
steadily worse. j became at last convinced
that the numerous physicians | had con-
suited were right, and that my disease was
indeed incurable. Giving up all hopes,
the only course left for me was to reduce
the pain to a minimum. This was OBJ
tanned BY eating as little IS would keep
body and soul together, and abstaining
from all substances contsining fats, sugar
and starch. Some months since a kind
friend gave me bottle of Red Seal Sar-
saparils. At first would not take it as
had lost faith in everything, believing
that God alone could bring relief. Being
told, however, that this Sarsaparilla was
prepared, ii peculiar manner of its own
whereby certain injurious principles con-
tanned in most all such preparations were
etfectually eliminated, | at last, but still
without much hope, gave it trial. l
fervently thank God that in his goodness
be has allowed me to find this precious
medicine. Finding relief with the first
bottle | obtained more, and kept taking it
until today l am completely cured and as
we'll man as ever drew the breath of life.
am convinced of the superiority of the
Red Seal Sarsaparilla over all others have
tried, and consider it my solemn duty to
tell what | have told in the foregoing, so
that others like myself suffering from dys-
pepsia or kindred diseases of the digestive
organs may be cured by this wonderful
medicine.
