Anyone who has ever had an at
tack. of inhammatory rheumatism
will rejoice with Mr.. ]. A. Stumm,
220 Boyle Heights, Los Angeles,
over his fortunate escape from a
siege of that distressing ailment
Mr.. Stumm is foreman of Merriams'
confectionery establishment. Some
months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street
on an errand, he was caught out in
the rain. The result was that when
ready to go home that night he was
unable to walk, owing to inaamma-
tory rheumatism, He was taken
home, and on arrival was placed in
front of a good fire and thoroughly
rubbed with Uhamberlain's Pain
Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed
with this liniment, and by morning
was relieved of all rheumatic pains.
He now takes especial pleasure in
praising Chamberlans Pain Balm,
and always keeps a bottle of it in
the house. For sale by Smith Drug

Mrs. NJ. j. Fisher One Of the Heirs to An
Immense Estate.
Among those who consulted Andrew
Seymour, the mind reader. during that
gentleman's recent engagement, was Mrs.
j. Fisher, wife of M. j. Fisher, General
Manager of the Metal Roofing and Cor
nice Company, whose place Of business is
situated at the corner Of Second and Main
Streets. Mrs. Fisher first called upon Mr..
Seymour three weeks ago last Saturday
night, and wanted to be placed in cores
pOndence with an uncle whom she had not
heard of since 1853, and cousin. Sey-
mour read from her mind the names OF the
uncle and cousin and told her that they
had been living at San Francisco, Califor-
Mrs. Fisher to write to the Postmaster at
San Palavia, Cal. and she would get some
very welcome information. Yesterday
Mrs. Fisher received q letter from Miss
DAILY, the Lost cousin, explaining that they
formerly resided in San Francisco, but had
sometime since removed from there to San
Palavia. Seymour had told Mrs. Fisher
the street and number Of Miss Days resi-
dence and also that her uncle was dead,
all Of which was verified In every detail
by the letter. Miss DAILY also wrote that
she had made every possible effort to locate
Mrs. Fisher, but had been unsuccessful up
to two weeks ago. when she was informed
by the postmaster at San Palavia. Miss
DAILY further said that Mrs. Fishers uncle
had left an immense fortune, and that she
was one Of the heirs. The estate 10 . large
one and Mrs. Fisher VIII get big slice OF
the valuable property. The estate will
now be settled as soon as possible, Mrs.
Fisher being the only heir whose where
abouts could not be ascertained. A PREss
reporter called at Mrs. Fishers home, No.
119 Chenango Avenue, last evening, and
learned that all of the facts related above
are positively true and not exaggerated In
the least. Mrs. Fisher isa very Intelligent
woman, about 90 or 30 years Of age, and
tells the story Of her good fortune In q
manner that would leave no room for
doubt az to its truthfulness. Accompanied
by her husband che called upon Mr.. Sey-
mour last night, and was profuse In her
expressions OF gratitude and appreciation
for what he had done for her. The feat
was certainly wonderful one, and Mrs.
Fisher will receive the hearty congratula-
tions of her neighbors and many friends.

That many Intelligent men have full

lieve in my discoveries, we have often
heard him say.
"Mr. Boyd Elliott, the eminent mcchan-
ical engineer, says in letter now in our
possession:
az have seen the etheric liberator OF
Mr.. Keely. believe he has six times the
value i'm his shops today that Mr.. Edison
has, and In answer to letter he wrote:

of the critics against Mr.. Keely's work),
but have concluded that tho game is not
worth the powder. We shall enjoy the fun
when these fellows arc compelled to COM

of it,.
Scientists are at work In the same di-
rection that Mr.. Keely is. and such men
as Professor Koenig of the University of
Pennsylvania, and the late Professor
Leidy, Professor Daniel G. Brinton, after
visiting Mr.. Kecly and seeing his work,
have acknowledged a belief in the man
and his ability to give the world n new
power.
"We visited Mr. Kecly's laboratory re-

Mr.. Daniel writes most interesting story
relative to tho burial Of these munitions Of

IT belonged to the Seventh Mississippi
regiment, a part Of Folks old corps. Aft
er having participated In q great many
battles in 1864 we, on May Is, commenced
our campaign in Georgia at Dalton. That
was hot and swift campaign. Day and

the Yankees commenced to harass our

were then in Atlanta My regiment in
Polk's corps was left to hold the center OF
the army at Atlanta. But on the night

way of preparation was to bury all the
large cannon, bombshells and tOrpedoes
that we had on hand This we did, as ex-
peditiously as possible, and the whole de-
posit made big heap. With all the tor
pedoes we fixed the springs ready for ex,

1T have often thought Of this days
work. I have not seen Atlanta since the
war; and I sometimes think that maybe
some large and costly buildings have beer
built over the spot where these explosives
are buried. am the only man living that
