DUNDEE.


Affairs at the .'Klondike' assumed very
rosy hue Monday evening, where one of its
graduates attempted to improve the ventila-
ton by throwing brick bats through the front.
This disriputable resort is presided over by
one, J. Browne, and 1t is whispered aloud that
an employee Of the railroad company, is behind
him. The trouble originated over a game of
dice, the graduate claiming that Brown capped
a ten on him, and after demoralizing the front
Of the building. he evinced a desire 20 push
the pr0prietor's handsome face. Brown, how
ever, took a trip tothe country evidently wish
ing to save trouble and doctor bills. Our citi.
zeDs have had about enough Of this kind of
sport and one Of these fine days they will rise
in their might and there will be another great
find In the Klondike
Dundee is soon to have another elevator.

is the remedy which relieves
women of the great pain and suf-

hour which is dreaded as woman's
severest trial is not only made
painless, but all the danger is re-
moved by its use. Those who use
this remedy are no longer de-
spondent or gloomy; nervousness
nausea and other distressing con-
ditions are avoided, the system is
made ready for the coming event,
and the serious accidents so COM

obviated by the use of Mothers

Succeeded by Receiver Murray.


Baltimore, July GA report printed
here to day, that Oscar G. Murray, one of

president of the Baltimore and Ohio
Southwestern, Is denied by Mr.. Murray.
He authorized this statement before leav-

ing Of the Baltimore and Ohio directors is
