near costing her her life.
They were going from their home In

seventy miles. Starting early in the morn

STRICKEN WITH PARALYSIS.

From U.e Industrial Nel0s, Jackson, Mich
Myron L. Root, a worthy workman, has
lived for nearly twenty five years in the city
of jackson, Mich, at 234 Adrian Ave, where
he owns happy home. His health had failed
him for some years back, and the loss OF bis
wife. two years ago filled his cup Of misery
TO OVERLOOKING. Griefand worry soon brought
on a stroke OF paralysis. A few weeks later
] he had second stroke, which totally disabled
| him. He could neither move limb nor
his head and had to be fed like baby. The
best medical aid was furnished him, and his
friends did all they could for him, but human
hands seemed powerless TO give him reIlef.
Both physicians who were treating him
told him, after a consultation, thai there
were no means Of helping him. he was
| then but a mere skeleton, without power
| to move and scarcely strength enough 70
express his wishs. Death was truly much
preferable TO lingering life OF such misery
| and helplessncss.

Pink Pills, of a woman afflicted similar 10

Neus. was read TO him, and although only
lingering spark of hope existed, he con-
scented 10 give the medicine trial, but IN

physician was summoned and after thor
oueh examination ofthe patient and learning
the history of the case, said that he could

Williams Pink Pills, which he had often
. known to succeed when everything else had
| failed. The pills were procured, and he took
/ them according TO directions, with the most
wonderful result. At the end Of two weeks

A FORCIBLE PRESENTATION.
The Venezuelan Government Presents
Its Brief to the boundary Commission

The Venezuelan Government Presents
Its Brief to the boundary Commission
The Venezuelan government has for
warded to Washington the brief prepared
at Caracas by a commission of five emil
nent jurists on the British-VeneZueia
boundary question. 1t will be submitted
to the United States commission as soon as
the translation is completed. The Venezue
Ian government named this commission
last February. with DR.. Seijas, dean of the
diplomatic and judicial service of the coun-
try, at Its head. The brief covers 800
pages, and is said to be forcible presen-
tation of the case. Aside from this brief,
coming direct from Venezuela, Messrs.
ScrGsgs and Storrow, the counsel of Ven
ezuela In this country, are about to submit
their final argument. Heretofore the docu-
mentS presented have covered points of
evidence, but the taking Of proof Is now
practically over, and the final arguments
are in order.
A recent document, which has caused
much comment among officials, purports to
be written by a Jesuit priest. He presents
the English side of the case, citing Catho-
lie authorities drawn from the Vatican
archives. The book was printed at Rome
The Venezuelan officials say the views IT
expresses have been fully met and over
come in the Venezuelan documents pre-
sented to the commission.

Supreme President EchOls of the A.
r. A. Treats the Matter Lightly.
Supreme President Echols of the Ameri-
can Protective Association refuses to dis
cuss the threatened suit for libel which
Mr.. Bradield says he will bring against
him. He treats the matter lightly, and his
friends say they have no idea suit of any
kind will be brought.
The friends of the supreme president also
regard the threatened suit with compla-
cence. They talk more freely than the
president or any Of the supreme officers
They say that Mr.. Echols can abundantly
take care Of himself in any suit
1t Is admitted that Mr.. Echols' use of
the word Expelled" in referring to Mr.
Bra6ield. was possibly not quite as ac-
curate as he could have used, but they say
that to all minds there is no real distinction
between being expelled and indefinitely sus-
pended. They say they stand ready to
prove that Mr.. Bradfield was indefinitely
suspended from Council No. of this city
about a year ago, and that he has never
been restored to membership. They hint
at being able to prove numerous other
things. 1t Is said that the district supreme
president will swear on a witness stand as
to the status Of Mr.. Bradheld in the order
in this city.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 21.-The sub

For once the subtreasury had on hand
more greenbacks than it wanted. In two

dumped over the counters and the gold

when the run commenced. Chicago was

an equally large amount was secured from
the mint, while 81 1.5oO.0O0 in British Sover-
egns recently received from Australia were
coined into double eagles at the mint and
carted to the subtreasury. Only $4.OO1,oo0
of the entire amount was left after the run
was over. That has since been increased
by the deposit of over s1.UO0.0W upon which
greenbacks have been withdrawn, and there
is every indication that the furry is over.
