A STRANGE CASE.
How an Enemy was Fooled.

The following graphic statement will be
read with intense interest: 81 cannot describe
the numb, creepy sensation that existed in my
arms, hands and legs. l had to rub and beat
those parts until they were sore, to overcome
in a measure the dead feeling that had ia ken
possession of them. In addition, L had q
strange weakness in my back and around my
waist, together with an indescribable gone
feeling in my stomach. Physicians said it
was creeping paralysis, from which, accord
ing to their universal conclusion, there is no
relief Once it fastens upon a person, they
say, it continues its inSidiOuS progress until
it reaches a vital point and the sufferer dies.
Such was my prospect. had been dOctOrlng
a year and half steadily but with no par
ticular benefit. when saw an advertisement
OF DR. Miles Restorative Nervine, procured a
bottle and began using it. Marvellous as 1t
may seem, but a few days had passed before
every bit Of that creepy feeling had left me;
and there has not been even the slightest
indication of its return. [ now feel as

FAILED TO KILL.
John Hudock's Attempt to Commit Sui
eide Was Not Successful.


John Hudock, well-known Hungari-
an, tried to kill himself yesterday morn
ing in a second-story bedroom in the
hotel of John Rasay, in the Points. The
attempt was made shortly after o'clock,
and although he sent bullet from a re-
volyer into his abdomen, it failed to do
all he intended it should. The shot was
heard by several parties who were in
the saloon underneath the room where
the act was done, and upon investigation
Hudock was found lying on the floor,
bleeding profusely from the hole the
bullet had made in his body.
Drs. Mcdonald and Gallagher were
called upon, and after fixing him up in
good shape he was taken to Hazleton
hospital, where the surgeons examined
the wound. The bullet had passed
through the body and lodged in the
spine, from which place it was removed
during the afternoon, and since then
John has been resting easily and may
recover.
His relatives cannot assign any cause
for the rash act, and it is presumed that
he was suffering from temporary insani-
ty, brought on by overindulgence in
drink.
-Four some time past he has resided
at Oneida, where he held a position
under Coke Bros. & Co., but he had
lately made arrangements to return to
this place with his wife and seven
Children.

From the Wilkes Barre Newsdealer.
There was great alarm at the Jail on
Saturday night, and for time the Off
cials were at their wits end. 1t was
small poX scare. A Polander from
Whiskey Hill, who had been sent up by
Squire Ford, was put in cell, and
while the constable was in the office the
prisoner was taken sick. The watchman
who went to his cell found his face all
broken out with pimpes and at once
gave the alarm. Warden Jones thought
it looked like small pox, and DR.. Kirwin
was at once sent for.
When the doctor arrived he found the
case looked suspicious and decided to
diagnose it thoroughly. For that pur-
pose he had the man taken to DIR.
Howell's office, and there they examin-
ed him, and finally concluded it was
case of chicken pox and that there was
no symptoms of small pox. The man
was sent back to Jail where he is now.

General McCartney's Illness.

General Mccartney, the well-known
attorney, of Wilkes-Barre, was taken seri-
ously i'll on Monday afternoon in court.
He was attorney in case that was on
trial, and while examining witness fell
back in his chair and sank into uncon-
seriousness. He was carried into the bar
office, where he regained consciousness.
The first impression was that the general
had been stricken with apoplexy or
heart disease, but the doctors diagnosed
it as a severe attack Of virtigo caused by
indigestion. His condition now is much
better.
