is strange task for me, but | deem 1t
proper to allow you to use my name, more
especially as the relief | received did not
result directly in any financial benefit to
you. 1t all came about through one of the
sample bottles which your agent dlStrib-
uted some time ago. [ did not find it
necessary to purchase another bottle, and
l trust my friends will profit by my expert
ence and seek relief by the use of your
cure. Briefly | will state that for upward
of eight years | have suffered untold tor
lures from int1ammatory rheumatism. L
have visited mineral springs, and taken
medicine by the gallon, | nigh say with
out exaggeration, but the old trouble re-
manned and relief came only at intervals.
AT times had suffered so greatly that |
was obliged to walk the floor by night, and
groan in silent agony during the day. At
ter taking several doses of your cure, ac-
cording to direction, the pain was greatly
lessened, and since then | have slept as
peacefully as child.

SAW THE SILVER IN TRANSIT.
Holc the Coin. Fes Taken From the Mint
to the C0pitoE.

Hotc the Coin. Was Taken From the Mint
to the Capitol.
CARSON, New, Dec. 18.-Ever since the
new State Treasurer came into Office in
January last there has been great deal of
discussion relative to- the presence an the
State treasury of about $4,000 in new
silver dollars of the coinage of 1893. At
tention was at first attracted by the pay OF
the members of the Legislature being in
these new coins, and Treasurer WesterfieId
explained that they were there when he
came into Office.
1t was subject of general comment that
all the dollars paid out of the treasury
were new, and bore the stamp of the Car
son Mint. Persons accustomed to handling
coins expressed the opinion that the
dollars had never been in circulation. All
the papers in the State have commented
upon the transaction. and one or two have
placed their columns at the service of the
ex-State Treasurer for an explanation, yet
none has been made. George Richard is
the ex-State Treasurer, now resident OF
Carson. He was candidate for re-eec-
ton, and the most strenuous efforts were
made by the State Central Committee to
re-elect him, but he was beaten by Wester-
field, the silver nominee.
1t is supposed that some one got gold
from the treasury for these silver dollars
and there are people who say they saw
parties packing the money from the Mint
to the State Treasury in sacks in open day
light.
During the panic IN July of that year
standard dollars commanded premium
in New Y York City, and Secretary Carlisle
when requested TO exchange silver dollars
for greenbacks gave out for publication
statement that there were no free silver
dollars in the United States Ire asury.
This makes the fact of $4,000 of 1893
being in the State treasury at Carson at
the expiration of the year 1894 more in
teresting.
1t is suggested that the next Legislat ure
investigate the matter and that authority
be given to committee to send for persons
and papers. If that is done transactions
in silver at the Mint might be shown to be
mysterious as those in gold appear to be in
the trial of the Mint shortage case.

Entire Session Without WrangIes

once more to a hard-pan business basis.
The boom spirit is dead, but instead of
that we are having something far more
profitable, solid, substantial growth. 1t
is now the rainy season.
''The precipitation at Cape Flattery-
from 80 to 100 inches per annum-is the
greatest in the United States, but at Port
Angeles. sixty miles away, it is but 80
inches, and at Port Townsend, forty miles
further inland, the minimum of l6 inches
is found. The mean temperature of Port
Angeles for the month of February last,
remarkable as it may seem, was identical
with that of New Orleans.
Washington is of late making great
strides in mining. A number of rich gold
finds have been made, and the coming sea-
son promises many good results. The
mammoth lumber-mills at Blakeley, Gam
bic, Ludlow and other points are running
double time, and there is apparent in bust
ness circles an evident feeling of revived
confidence and commercial profnise."

MRS. sHAFER's PROPERTY.
She Said 1t Was Conveyed Away From
Her Through Fraud.


Her Through Fraud.
Elizabeth Shafer has commenced suit
against Adeline E. Shafer, her niece, to set
aside deed executed by her husband and
herself conveying certain property in this
City to the defendant.
The conveyance in question was executed
April 27, 1898. 1t conveyed some lots,
worth altogether about $4,000, to Adeline
Shafer for $i0. It was signed by Herman
III. Shafer and Elizabeth Shafer, but Mrs.
Shafer now alleges that she did not know
at the time the real purport of the instru-
ment she was signing. She says her hus-
band represented to her that the instru-
ment was an agreement to protect man
named Stringer, from whom he was going
to purchase some property. Mrs. Shafer
also alleges that she did not know at the
time that her husband owned any property
nor that the lots in question were COM
munity property. She, therefore. asks the
court to declare her possessed of one-hslf
interest in the lots which she alleges were
fraudulently conveyed away from her.

SACRAMENTO, Cal, March 4.-Train No.
3 was held up near Antelope Station yes
terday by two masked men, dressed in
long ulsters. One of the highwaymen
kept the engineer under guard, while his
partner took the fireman to the baggage
car and compelled him to uncouple it from

the fireman and ordered the engineer to go
ahead. AS the engineer slowed up in re-

gineer attempted to hit his man with a
wrench, but he jumped to the ground, and
both robbers escaped into the woods. The
engine then backed down to the train.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 4-rhe steamer
Australia arrived on Saturday, seven days
from Honolulu. Among her passengers
are thirteen exiles from the Hawaiian
Islands. Among the number are only a
few who have been accused of actual com
plicity in the recent revolution. The others
are mostly Britshers and Germans who
made themselves obnoxious to the repub
lican government by doing too much talk
ing
The most important news brought by
the steamer was the decision of President
Dole and cabinet committing TO imprison
ment the death sentences imposed by court
martial upon Wilcox, Seward Rickard
and Gulick the four leading rebel plot
ters. The sentences were commuted TO
thirty-flve years Imprisonment and a fine
of $4,000 each.
1t appears that President Dole has been
opposed TO executions, and his feelings
were shared by members of the cabinet.
The other sentences are: Thomas Walker,
thirty years and a fine of $1,000; Carl
Wideman, thirty years. William Greig,
twenty years, and Louis Marshall, twenty
years. The last two were fined $4,000
each. James c. Lane was given five years
and a fine of So 600.
Samuel Nowlein and Henry Bertleman,
two of the prominent leaders, have been
allowed their liberty They gave valuable
evidence for the government.
Although the ex-queens sentence has
not been made public, the Associated Press
correspondent was informed by cabinet
officer that she has been sentenced to serve
five years in prison and to pay fine OF
5000. 1t is understood that the sentence
will not be changed by the president.
