pertinent.
Special 60 thc Nelok

NEWPORT, Jan. 1.-The great medical
discovery for the cure of diphtheria, anti
toxine, has been successfully used in this
city, and, it is believed, for the first time
patient was child, little girl, who
was attended by DIR. Peter +. Cur
ley. He saw what was the trouble and
sent TO New York for the anti-toxine
remedy. Four days later 1t arrived, and
he at once applied the remedy, although
he had some difficulty in dong so, in that
the child's parents did not wish 1t. In
side Of II hours he began to see good re-
suits and "a hours later the entire coating
was removed from the child's throat.

also used the treatment with successful
results.

activity that was developed during the
early trading was In St. Paul. which de-
clined on unfavorable rumors regarding
the dividend, and q. B. d q. was af-
fected by the figures OF the Novem-
