JUDGE JOHN M. RICE TELLS HOW
HE WAS CURED OF SCIATICA.

(From the C0rington, ky., Posf)
The Hon. John NJ. Rice, of Louisa, Law.
renee County, Kentucky, has for the past
two years retired from active life as Criminal
and CircuitsJudge of the sixteenth Judicial
District of Kentucky.
He has for many years served his native
county and state in the legislature at Frank
fort and at Washington, and, until his retire
ment was a noted figure in political and Ju-
dicial circles. The Judge is well-known
throughout the state and possesses the best
qualities which go to make Kentucky
gentleman honored wherever he is known.
A few days ago Kentucky Post reporter
called upon Judge Rice, who in the follow
ing words related the history of the causes
that led to his retirement. at is just about
six years since had an attack of rheuma-
tism slight at first, but soon developing into
Sciatic rheumatism, which began first with
acute shooting pains in the hips, gradually
extending downward to my feet.
my condition became SO bad that even
tually lost all power Of my legs, and then
the liver, kidneys and bladder and in fact, my
whole system, became deranged.
"In 1888, attended by my son John, /
went to Hot Springs, Ark, tut was not much
benefited by some months stay there. My
liver was actually dead, and dull persistent
pain in its region kept me on the rack all
the time. In 1896 was reapponted Circuit
Judge, but it was impossible for me to give
attention to my duties. In 1891 l went to
the Silurian Springs, Waukeshaw, Wis. I
stayed there some time, but without i'm
provement.
"The muscles of my limbs were now re-
duced by atrophy to mere strings. Sciatic
pains tortured pre terribly, but it was the
disordered condition of my liver that was
felt gradually wearing my life away. Doc
tors gave me up completely.
al fingered on in this condition sustained
almost entirely by stimulants until April,
1893. One day John saw an account of
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People in
the Kentucky Post. This was something
new, and John prevailed upon me to try
them. / remember was not expected to live
for more than three or four days at the time.
The effect of the pills, however, was mar
velous and could soon eat heartily, q thing
had not done for years. The liver began
almost instantaneously to perform its func-
tons, and has done so ever since. Without
doubt the pills saved my life and while do
not crave notoriety l cannot refuse to testify
to their worth.

LIKE HUCKsTERS' BADGES.
Special Policemen Object TO Their
New Shields.

The special policemen in this city are
preparing to file formal protest with
the Commissioners against the badges which
were recently issued to them In lieu of the
regular patrolmen's shield, all of which
have been called in. The new device is a
circle of white metal inclosing star,
with the Inscription, Special Policeman,

They claim that with this badge on their
lapel it is dangerous to make arrests, as it
does not bear any resemblance to the regu-
lar metropolitan shield, and prisoners are
inclined to treat with contempt. Aspecial
said last night:
ut is more like the badge worn by huck-

SEA LION A VICTIM.
Died From the Effects of the Zoo
logical Park Explosion.

The handsome sea lion at the Geological
Park is dead.
The accidental explosion of dynamite,
which occurred at the park Wednesday,
was the direct cause of the animals
death. The explosion occurred about 200
feet from the home of the sea lion and 1t
is supposed that the conclusion injured
the beast internally.
To satisfy themselves on this point DR..
Baker. assisted by Drs. Styles, Dawson,
and Palmer, of the Agricultural Depart
ment. held a post mortem examination
yesterday and the examination proved
the correctness of their theory that death
was caused by the conclusion.
The lion was secured by the Zoo peo-
pie about two years ago and was regarded
as one of the finest specimens in captivity
and has attracted great attention. He
was the only animal of the kind belonging
to the park and for that reason his loss
will be severely felt The animal was
skinned and the pelt sent to the Smithson-
ion Institution, where it win be mounted.
