THE CASE.
From the Noon. Battle Creek. Mich.

The people Of Battle Creek, Mich, are
talking of the wonderful cure Of Henry
Weston, Of So South Avenue, who doctored so
long with some Of the best physicians in the
country and failing to find relief, took DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People and was
permanently cured. John r. Linihan, Of
the drug firm of Morehouse & Linihan, pro-
prietors of the White Drug Store was seen
by a reporter in regard to the cure and
many others that had been reported. Mr..
Linihan stated that the case Of Mr.. Wes-
ton was only one of hundred or more
in this city. every day." said the drug
man, eve hear of some one that has been
cured by these pills. We sell large amount
Of them and have yet to find person that
has not got his moneys worth. No one ever
comes back and says they were not helped,
but on the other hand dozens Of persons have
called who have been really benefited by
their use. DR.. Williams Pink Pills are as
staple as -four and no frst-class druggist is
ever without them. They are so cheap, only
fifty cents box or six boxes for $3.50 They
are within the reach of all and we never
have any hesitancy in recommending them.
Mr.. Weston was seen at his home on South
Avenue by the reporter and asked if there
was any truth in the rumor that he had doc

Annual Losses Suffered by the Peasants by
Their Ravages.
According to some official data just
published at Helsingfors the Firms
would appear to suffer very consider
able annual losses from the ravages of
wild animals. During the ten years
ending 1891 those losses are recorded
as follows: One thousand, four hun
dred and forty-seven horses, 7.sa3
cattle. $3.50 sheep, 1881 swine, %, .S4
head of reindeer, 81 57 fowls, geese.
ducks, turkeys, etc, the total ap-
proximate value of which was about
2, 500, 900 rubies. During the same Pc
riod there were killed 1904 bears, 1900
wolves, 4,1a3 lynxes, 47.2sl foxes. 727
gluttons. 3,435 offers, 1,4S3 martens,
1860 ermine and 55,657 birds of prey,
such as eagles, hawks. etc.
From the latter group of figures it
will be seen that the Firms wage con-
slant and energetic war against the
wild fauna. The numbers of bears and
lynxes have decreased, but foxes and
other small wild animals appear to be
increasing.

breast with unspeakable satisfaction,
and he almost shouted with joy when
the storm burst upon him in all its
fury. The inky darkness which ac-
companied it would hide his move
ments, and the rain beating down upon
the lodges of the Indians would drown
the sound of his stealthy footsteps
As he lay there, his brain was busy
formulating plan of action. He must
enter the village, perilous venture,
and when once there how could he de-
termine in which one of the twenty or
more lodges his loved one was con-
fined? He could but go ahead and
trust to Providence for guidance. Not
one man in thousand would under
take such a hazardous task; but the
light of his life-all he cared to live for
was in that village of deadly, treach-
erous foes, and if he could not effect
her rescue it was his desire that he
might die with her.
When the storm struck the village
the Indians hastily sought shelter in
their lodges, and the drenching rain
soon extinguished the camp fires Be
ing driven to shelter, the waiting SOL
dier knew the savages would soon seek
comfort in their blanket beds, and
after waiting about an hour. that to his
impatient spirit seemed an age, he re-
mounted his horse and rode toward the
village.

entirely on the instinct of the horse to
keep our direction. for not landmark

''f,ut they will know that my rescuer
came from the fort, or that if escaped
unaided would start back toward the
fort, and should be missed in the
night would they not at once come in
this direction in search o. me?'
''You are right, Alice. I had not
thought of that. Then, in reassur-
ing tone, he added: But do not feel
the least fear, dear one, for we are
mounted on q magnificent horse, and
he is making splendid progress We
will surely reach the river by day
break, and think the Indians would
not go far without some sign to show
them that they were on our trail. Rest
assured that we will reach the fort in
safety in time for good breakfast"
Il pray that you may be right, Ned,

will try to Danish the fear, which is no
doubt a foolish one"
You will laugh at your fears, little
one, when you are again safe in your
home. But see, darling, the rain has
almost ceased, and it grows lighter"
The clouds were indeed passing
away, and soon the stars glimmered
dimly through the hay atmosphere.
On and on they sped across the
desert, every beat of the horses hoofs
making an increased distance between
themselves and their Indian foes.
On through the gloom of night into
the gray dawn of morning they rode,
and just as the first streak of sunlight
kissed the damp earth over the eastern
hills they came upon the bluffs over
looking the Rio Grande at the point
where they had crossed it, four miles
below the fort.
Here is the dear old river again."

and in an hour you will be safely back
in your fathers arms"

moved down the slope toward the
river. You have not yet told me how
you happened to come alone to my
rescue
Yes, darling, / came with his knowl-
edge and consent" He then related to
her all that had transpired at the fort
after the discovery that the Indians
had carried her away. The affectionate
girl gave him hug that almost lifted
him from the saddle and lovingly said:
''Oh! you dear, brave, noble fellow.
Perhaps your action in coming upon such
a perilous mission to rescue his daugh-
ter may have great weight in breaking
down papa's prejudice, and when he
realizes that it was you who restored
me to his arms he may look upon you
with favor and no longer oppose our
hearts fondest Desires
THAT has been the uppermost sub
ject of my thoughts during the entire
trip, and pray God that it may be as
we hope"
Happening to cast his eyes back over
his shoulder his heart ceased for a
a moment to beat and his blood ran
cold in his veins.
A band of mounted Indians came
sweeping down the bluff but half a
mile behind them.
MY God. we are pursued" he cried,
striking the spurs deeply into the sides
of the horse. ''Cling closely, my loved
one, for it will now be desperate ride
for life
MAY God in Heaven protect u.s. she
murmured, as the fierce yells of the
pursuing Indians reached their ears.
The noble horse heard the savage
cries OF the pursuers, and seemed to
realize the great danger that threat
ened his riders. Across the grassy val
ley he flew with almost Incredible
speed, and thrill of hope flashed
through the young soldiers breast as
he noted that each bound of the animal
increased the distance between them
selves and the savages.
''We gained on them. Courage, my
beloved, courage, and we will yet es-
cape them. If we can but reach the
other side and gain the high ground,
they may abandon the chase before
getting too near the fort"
God grant that they may. Oh,
those frightful, unearthly yells! They
seem to chill my blood,'' she said,
clinging yet more closely to her lover.
Without slackening his pace the
horse dashed into the stream, but the
water impeded his progress and the
Indians gained rapidly upon them.
Nobly the strong beast plunged against
the swift waters which rose to his
breast in the center of the stream, but
the current was strong and his progress
was slow. At last he reached the other
side and dashed up the bank as the In
dams were urging their ponies into the
water on the opposite side.
Across the wooded bottom which in
tervened between the river and the
western bluff they flew, and began the
ascent of the gulch which led to the
mesa. TIE steepness of the hill again
impeded the horses speed, and when
they reached the summit the Indians
could be seen flying across the bottom.

Income Tax Reyenues.

Though the central principle of the
income tax remains, the division of the
supreme court invites further attacks
and the law cannot be deemed settled
until positive affirmation or rejection
is obtained. BY the elimination of
rents and the interest on state and
municipal bonds, the revenue to be
derived from the tax will be reduced.
The proceeds will, however, be very
nseful to the treasury in meeting the
difficulty caused by the extravaganza

torious Fifty-first congress and the ie-
preston of business. Luckily for Sec
