and oppressive taxation. These same bur
dens were the cause OF war that gave free
dom to thiscountry, andas thedescendantso
patriots we owe our fealty to all others who
struggle for that great boon of liberty. No

The aggregate circulation of the Star last

this Increase is due to the snarling of fiste

Diseases are more prevalent than generally
supposed, and among them all none is more
horrible than Syphilis. Indeed, if not checked
in time it becomes almost as terrible in second
airy and tertiary stages as leprosy itself Many
doctors suppress this terrible disease by filing
the patients systems with mereurial poisons,
with that damnable curse from which your
children as well as yourself will suffer, but
DOCTOR SWEANY warrants a positive and
permanent cure OF Syphilis without injurious
drugs. He also effects a speedy cure in all
cases of elect, Gonorrhoea, Iniammations,
Pains, Itehings, Swellings and Discharges of
every kind, Structure, Irritability of Bladder
and kindred troubles, many of which are the
result of improper treatment OF former diseases

court decreed the late widow, who is a
defendant in the suit, one-third of the
estate and the three children, Mrs. Bailey,
Mrs. Barstow and the infant Fred, the re-
malnder in shares of two-ninths each.
This division was in accordance with the
law, but on account of opposition and dis
cord between the parties, the affairs of the
estate have not been conducted in man
ner conducive to the best interests of the
whole.
1t is alleged that Mrs. Bailey, one of the
defendants, is an illegitimate child, yet
under the decree she shared alike with
the rest of the children.
There are other complex conditions that
cannot be disentangled until the property
is partitioned and for that reason the par
tition suit was brought to-day by w. A.

to have all the lands and premises belong

HEALDSBURG IS SHOCKED,
Arrest of a Prominent Citizen
for Selling Wine to
Indians.
and Is a Deacon In the
Church.

HEALDSBURG, CAL, July 13.-I. c..
Laymance, an DID, wealthy and highly re-
spected resident of this city, was this morn
ing arrested on charge of furnishing In
dams with wine.
The complaint was sworn to by Deputy
Sheriff Leard on information and belief,
and by it Laymance is accused of having
supplied the Dry Creek Valley Indians
with wine on the second day of July. The
proof of his guilt is said to be conclusive.
Mr.. Laymance is "a years of age. He has
resided in this vicinity since 1852; he has a
wife and several grown children and many
grandchildren.
The news of his arrest astounded those
who know him. Nothing of so sensational
a character has occurred in this community
for years. Those who have known him the
longest and most intimately are the most
loath to believe in his guilt.
The motive for his conduct is hard to
divine, for he was not driven to it by want,
as he is a man of considerable wealth,
which he has acquired in farming, having
| owned very large and productive farm
near this city for about forty years. He is
not an Incorporate man, nor one who was
| known to have any bad habits whatever
| He is deacon in the church and a man
of exemplary conduct. His mental facul-
| ties are unimpaired and he is strong phys
icaily. For these reasons it is difficult to
account for his conduct, though there
seems to be general belief in his guilt.
His preliminary examination is set for
Wednesday next at IL A. NJ. He has been
| released on $1,000 bonds, with his son,
Francis Laymance, and L. l.. Gale as
! sureties. Moreland and Norton have been
retained by Laymance.
