A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the New Discovery
fer Curing Dyspepsia.

The Rev. F. I. Bell, a highly esteemed
minister, residing in Weedsport, Cayuga
Co, n. Y, in recent letter writes as
follows: There has never been any
thing that I have taken that has re-
lieved the Dyspepsia from which
have suffered for ten years except the
new remedy called Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. Since taking them L have
had no distress at all after eating and
again after long years can sleep we'll.
Rev. F. I. Bell, Weedsport, N. Y, for
merly Italia, Colo.
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets is a re-
markable remedy, not only because it
is a certain cure for all forms Of indi-
gestion, but because it seems to act
as thoroughly in old chronic cases of
Dyspepsia as well as in mild attacks
of indigestion or biliousnesS. A person
has dyspepsia simply because the stom-
ach is .overworked all it wants is a
harmless, vegetable remedy to digest
the food and thus give it the much
needed rest.
This is the secret of the success Of
this peculiar remedy. No matter how
weak or how much disordered the diges-
ton may be, Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest the food whether the stom-
ach works or not New life and energy
is given not only to the stomach, but
to every organ and nerve in the body
A trial of this splendid medicine will
convince the most skeptical that Dys-
pepsia and all stomach troubles can
be cured. The tablets are prepared by
the Stuart Chemical Co., of Marshall,
Mich, but so popular has the remedy
become, that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets can now be obtained at any drug
store at so cents per package Send for
book on stomach diseases free.

SPARKS. WE'RE STOLEN.
Sneak Thieves, Make Haul at
Roxey Reber's.

Sneak thieves nowadays are exhibit
ing a lively penchant for diamonds,
and displaying uncomfortably close
judgment in picking out their victims
The latest ones to suffer are Mr.. and
Mrs. Roxey Reber
While Mr. and Mrs Reber were away
from their home on WabaSha street,
near Submits avenue, last Monday
night, thieves gained an entrance to
the house through the kitchen window
They proceeded up stairs to the sleep
ing apartments, where they succeeded
in finding pair Of diamond earrings
belonging to Mrs. Reber and valued at
$500. They also carried away two WIN
ter overcoats. one belonging to Mr.
Reber and the other to a gentleman
who rooms at the house. A few gentle
mans silk handkerchiefs completed
their modest haul
The fact that they stole the over
coats and handkerchiefs, which could
readily be identified, but neglected to
take other articles more valuable and
more easily convertible into money
convinces Mr.. Reber that the men were
mere sneak thieves and not expert
enced crooks or "enterprising burg
lars"
Mr.. Reber thinks that the robbery oc-
CURED early in the evening, while he
and his wife were out to supper The
kitchen window was unlocked, and
thieves could easily enter unobserved,
as the house next door is vacant.
No trace Of the stolen diamonds or
other articles has been discovered thus
far. Mr.. Reber didn't report the rob-
berry to the police.

the patent office, however as alleged by the

BLANK RECEIPTS AND. TRAcERs
Are Alleged to Have Been Used With
the Result That Merchants
Were Victimized.

Some weeks ago the police Of this
CITY arrested Thomas Wills and T. r.
Kane. alias T. E. Rose on a charge of
swindling and uttering forged instru-
ments. The men, when arrested, had
with them number of contracts pur-
porting to be signed by business firms
of this city agreeing to pay sums rang
ing in amounts from SO to $40 for adj
vertisements in a mercantile directory
In each and every case the firms, on
which the claims were made, and to
collect which the men showed contracts
signed by members Of the firm, claimed
that the signatures were forgeries
Several of the parties, who had signed
contracts for so cents and 81, found
that the paper had ben doctored and
the amounts raised from SO to SO. Both
Wills and Rose, engaged attorneys, and
the cases have been fought in the po-
lice court during the past two months.
Writs of habeas corpus have been
applied for by the attorneys for the
prisoners, and Wills has been released
a couple of times by the district court,
only to be arrested on another charge
made by a different firm. The grand
jury has now under consideration, or
will at an early date take up the cases
against both Wills and Rose
The following telegram from Indi-
annapolis relative to the raids made by
the police of that city, as a result Of
the st. Paul arrests, will explain to the
merchants Of this city the manner in
which the signatures to contracts are
secured:
Tuesday afternoon the local police made a
descent upon the office of the Rose Publish
Ing company, of this city, but found nobody
there. The descent was due to information
that Frank E. Rose, alias Eugene Sullivan,
and Thomas Wills had been arrested at St.
Paul. Minn---and that NJ. Roy Daniels had
been captured at Cleveland the latter for
transfer to Louisville, Ky. The noon train
brought here Chief Detective Hanger, of
the Louisville police force, and a detective
from st. Paul is expected. This room on
East Washington street is supposed to have
in distant cities, and the police found blanks,
a printing press, chemical eraslng fluids and
other things needed in a successful conduct
of the business. Among the blanks was one
showing that the company had operated in
Cincinnati, having its Office in the Mitchell
West Fourth street and No. 9, the same
street. This branch styled itself ''The Mer-
camille Publishing Company" and the blanks
showed that the company pretended to issue
the United States Mercantile Register.
Coupled to blank receipt of the mercantile
company is what is styled tracer, which the
subscriber was requested to fill out, the ex-
PLANTATION following that the agent had to
make daily reports of collections to the patent
office. With this tracer it was an easy mat
ter to cut off the top lines, print in a space

"BilIy'' Meade ON Washington and
Oregon Politics.

William Meade, known all over the
West as Billy Meade. who is general
western agent of the Northwestern
at Portland, Oregon, says that al
though he is a rock-ribbed Democrat,
with a real yellow streak down the
middle of his back, he will have to
vote for Mckinley this year or his con-
science will never let him rest. Mr.
Meade said to the G 10 b e yesterday:
1t is my honest opinion that both
Oregon and California sgo Republic
can next month. Indications are for
big majoritiess [ am afraid that Wash
in gtono will give q. ma jority for Bryan.
Our election in Washington this year
is rather out of the ordinary run of
things. There is no state, county or
city election at the same time, moth
ing but the presidential situation to
attract the attention of the people. I
think the country at large will go for
sound money"
Mr.. Meade is a member of the Port
land city council, and is president of
the board of aldermen. Last week
Mayor Pennoyer. who is not unknown
to fame. left the city, and Mr.. Meade
was acting mayor. 1t was an odd sit
uation in one respect as Pennoyer is
a free silver man and Meade is a
sound money man, and both ruled the
city within one week.

FATAL CYCLE HABIT

BETWEEN THE INTERURBAN

FRED GAGNE is THE VICTIM
OF ONE of THE MOST SHOCKING
ACCIDENTS YET RECORDED
LOCALLY.
FRED GAGNE IS THE WcTI

And Life Was Extinct Before the

Frederick Gagne, night Waterman at
the Minneapolis postoffice building, and
residing on Raymond near University
avenue southeast, kissed his wife and
little children good by yesterday after
noon and started for work. Ten min
utes later he was a corpse.
Mr.. Gagne lost his life while riding
his bicycle between the interurban
tracks on University avenue a habit
which has caused so many accidents of
late. The accident happened shortly
before o'clock, at which time Mr..
Gagne went on duty daily. He was
on his way to work, and just as he has
been in the habit Of doing each day.
rode between the tracks, the street be-
ing too rough for easy riding. The &C
cident happened as he was coming
down the grade from Prospect park at
Th1rty-first avenue southeast. An In
terurban car, bound for Minneapolis,
was coming down the grade at rapid
rate behind the rider. There is little
doubt but that he heard it's approach,
but he probably figured that he could
keep between the tracks and let the
car pass. The swift approach of the
car unnerved him, or else he thought
it was on the other track, for as it
was about to pass, the wheel swerved,
and Gagne was precipitated directly
beneath the wheels. The car was going
at such high rate of speed that it
was difficult to stop and, although the
motorman reversed the current and ap-
piled the brakes as promptly as pos
sible, the car had made 100 feet beyond
the body before brought to standstill.
Death must have resulted almost in
stantly. The body had been rolled over
and over under the wheels and was
frightfully mutilated. The back part
of the head had been torn away, al
lowing the brains to escape, and the
face was crushed beyond recognition.
Both legs were severed from the body,
and almost every bone in the body was
broken.
Coroner Kistler was summoned, and
after viewing the remains ordered
them removed to the morgue. An in
quest will be held some time today
Mr.. Gagne, who was about thirty
live years of age, had been employed in
the postoffice for two years, and in all
that time had not missed a single days
work, excepting an occasional holiday.
He was a sober, Industrious man, al
ways prompt and attentive to his
duties. He leaves wife and four little
children

SHERMAN TO SHERIDAN.
Fourth Infantry Passes Through

st. Raul I'm Transit.
Four companies and the band of the

by Gen. John r. Brooks, commanding
the department of Dakota, and other
regular army officers from Fort Shell
Ing. Lieut.. A. E. Johnson, military in
spector for Minnesota national guard,
was also at the depot. The officers
and their families took dinner at the
depot, but the rank and file did not
leave the train. Guards were estab-
nshed at each door to prevent deser-
ton.
All members of the Fourth expressed
pleasure at the prospect of being sta
hcned at Fort Sheridan. 1t will be a
welcome relief from the rather dull
life in Idaho. Yet the station which
the troops have just left is a beautiful
spot 1t is situated in the Cour
d Afene country, and is but ten min
utes walk from a town of ], 200 people.
The troops left at 4 o'clock over the
Omaha for Chicago, and will arrive in
That city at o'clock in the morning.
The gallant Fourth is one of the
most famous, as we'll as one of the
Oldest, regiments in the service 1t
has been stationed in the far West,
with the exception Of two years, ever
since 1867. In 1868 the regiment was
brought East, and was returned to the
mountains iny 1870, where it has been
ever since. Many of the older officers
OF course feed some regret at leaving
the old hOnne,g but the newer members
welcome the change. The Fourth made
trip to Kentucky in the los to assist
In suppressing the Ku Klux riots 1t
took prominent part in escorting
Cooks expedition through the West,
and acted as an escort to protect the
laborers engagedsin building the Union
Pacific through to the coast. 1t is said
that the Fourth regiment has gradu-
ated more great soldiers than any
other regiment in the service Gen.

TWO COUNTY FIGHTS
VIII Come Up in the Supreme Court
Today.

Two important cases are set for ar
gument in the supreme court today,
namely, the county boundary wars be-
tween Cass and Crow Wing counties
and the scramble for the subdivision
of Polk county.
The former case comes up on the pc
tition Ct a number of residents Of Cass
county, VINO are not satisfied with the
proceedings by, which the commission
ers of Crow Wing county assumed con-
troll of the territory in dispute between
the two. The Crow Wing people claim.
that the election which switched the
territory from one county to the other
was legal, while the Cass county people
claim that it was not.
In the Polk county case the nominal
defendants are the Pioneer Press and
Dispatch, although they appear only
as the agents Of the state ana county
boundary commission, which ordered
inserted in the columns of the two pa
pers named the advertisements which
the petitioners in the actions at bar
have enjoined, and which they seek to
have perpetually inhibited.
Each of the two cases is Of interest
to several thousand people, ard there
is no doubt of hard fight in each case,
as considerable feeling has been en-
gendered by the allegations in each
cause Of action.

Mrs. Ella Beaulieu began an action
for divorce in the district court yes

forth in the complaint is cruel and i1l-
human treatment and non-support
Mr.. and Mrs. Beaulieu were married
at Chippewa Falls, Wis, ten years ago
this month, and have lived together
ever since, with the exception of a
period of three months during the

children of their own but have an
adopted child three years old.
The complaint alleges that on Sept
Is and 6, 1896, and at other times dur
ing the past summer, the defendant
was guilty of cruel and inhuman treat
ment of the plaintiff, consisting Of oc-
caslonal blows and the bestowal of
vile, opprobrious and insulting epithets
upon the plaintiff. The complaint also
charges the defendant with failing to
support the plaintiff. Mrs. Beaulieu
asks for temporary alimony, counsel

declares in her complaint that her hus-
bands income out of the real estate
business is not less than 5000 month";

he was pardoned, so he relates, at the
