The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1896-10-14

The residents OF Park Hill and the
River Point and Phenix are beginning TO
get very wroth in regard to the carvings
on and thieyiog OF the tramps, whom
they claim make their headquarters In tie
barns at the PawtUxet Valley Park, and
unless the prowlings and tbieving of these
"knights OF the road" are stopped, 1t is
probable that some evening a tramp hunt
will be organized and the "wandering
Willies" ana "Dusiy Rhoades," who fall
into the hands of the hunters will have
cause to remember the Pawtuxet valley
for years 10 come. For tire past few
weeks the residents of Park Hill and vi
ciniry hsve been missing chickens from
their coops and vegetables from their
gardens, and at first 1t was thought that
some of the residents of the valley viii
lhges had been comrelIed 20 help them
selves TO their peig ghbor's property, in or
der to keep body and soul together. A
watch was get on the fowls and gardens,
however. and 1t soon became apparent
that the thieving had not been done by
any neigh Dor, but by some of the "Wea-
~ Watkins" who made the park a stop
ping place on their fall pilgrimages to
the sunny Soulh. The residents say that
now for bearauce has ceased to re virtue,
and il the officers do not take steps to
put sn end to the pilfering, which has
been going on the last few weeks, they
will take the law into their own hands,
ana rid the community of the vagrants,
before the buildings at the park, in
which they have already sunk their
money go up in smoke, as the result OF a
stray spark from a tramp's pipe.

GET FLESH,
Get Strength, VigOr, Clear Complexion and
Good Digestion, Not by n Patent Metii-
cine, But in Natures Own Way,

Get strength, Vigor, Clear Complexion and
Good Digestion, Not by n Patent Medi.
cine, But in Natures Own Way.
ANY honest physician will tell you
that there is but one way t. get in
creased flesh; all the patent medi-
cines and cod liver oils to the con-
trary notwithstanding.
Nature has but one way to increase
flesh, strength and vigor, mind and
body, and that is through the stom-
ach by wholesome food, we'll d.
gested. There is no reason, or CON-
mon sense in any other method what
ever.
People ale thin, run down, ner-
vous. pale and shakv in their nerves,
simply because their stomachs are
weak.
They may not think they have dys-
pepsia, but the fact remains that
they do not eat enough food, or what
they eat is not quickly and properly
digested as it should be.
DIR. Harlandson says the reason is
because the stomach lacks certain
digestive acids and peptones and de-
ticient secretion of gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is
to supply what the weak stomach
lacks. There are several good prep
arations which will do this, but none
SO readily as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets. which are designed especially
for all stomach troubles. and which
cure all digestive weakness on the
common sense plan of furnishing the
digestive principles which the stom-
ach lacks.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give
perfect digestion. First effect is to
increase the appetite and increased
vigor, added flesh. pure blood, and
strength of nerve and muscle is the
perfectly natural result.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest tonic known and will cure any
form of stomach trouble except can
Ger of the stomach. May be found
at druggists at so cents for full sized
package or direct by mail from

Tho Henneuin.

The Rock Falls News, which has
been watching the Hennepin canal
interestedly. says that 1.-The only
known new fact is that the dam for
the feeder will be built between the
cities of Rock Falls and Sterling, and
that the water to supply the feeder
will be taken from the river within
a mile of the city of Rock Falls, and
perhaps within a quarter of mile of
the city limits. This much is as
surred-all the rest of the newspaper
talk is conjecture. Then going into
the conjecture business it predicts
among other things that congress
will this term make liberal appro-
priation for the Hennepin conal, as
we'll as all other works which go to
the strengthening of the defenses of
the nation. in view of the war
talk among all nations. The Hen
nepin canal will be needed for the
transfer Of gun boats between the
great lakes and the Mississippi river,
and it will be pushed to an early
pletiOn.

night twenty-five recruits from the
various stations in this city, under the

wore a red ribbon, over which was
pinned a picture of Mrs. Ballingtor

their head they carried a United
