For the past five months my sufferings
have been terrible. I have been UNI
able to walk, or turn over in bed or.
to lie on my right side even for few
seconds. My skin was yellow and

palpltation, was bloated and swelled,
urine scant, painful and almost black
at times, my nights sleepless and full
OF suffering until I begged for an
opiate. | have had medical treatment
from kind and competent physicians,
but was not improving. March 24th
L sent for DR.. G.. M. Stanton, who
told me all about my troubles without
any questions. I engaged treatment
and at once began to improve. At
this date my skin is clear bowels reg
ular, urine natural and sufficient,
bloat and swelling reduced and sleep
like child. My pains, and soreness
are relieved and can get around,
turn over, and lie on either side. /

has not given me drop of medicine,
and did uot ask any faith on my part.

Josiah Cooper was the victim of an
accident which, bad as it was, might
easily have been much worse. While
driving in a spirited young horse from
the farm just south of the city, the an
imal gave sudden and violent lunge
breaking the thill strap. AS a result
the thills pounded the horse at every
step and caused him to kick violently.
One foot went through the dash board
of the road cart to which he was at
tached, and failing TO extricate it,
horse, cart and occupant went into a
promiscuous heap. The cart was
broken into pieces, the horse was
quite seriously injured ard Mr.. Coop
er sustained several severe, cuts and
bruises about the body and limbs. No
bones were broken and while he is
very sore and lame, he will soon be
about again.

The cemeteries contiguous to this
city show marked Improvement in the
character of the tombstones year by
year, and far better care is given to
many OF the lots, and yet there is a
ragged and forbidding general APP
pearance to these burial plats not
creditable to those interested. Weeds
and tall grass grow rank and insight
ly. Some provision should be made
for general cemetery work, either by
small tax, if possible, upon the lots,
an interment fee, or by setting aside
small portion of the purchase price
of lots. All the cemeteries are too
small. There is not sufficient proyis-
ion in area made for the future. A
score of years hence it will be impos-
sible to secure lot in any one OF
them.

Lewis A. Larsen, State boiler in
spector for the Fifth inspection dis
trict of Minnesota, was in the city on
Tuesday in company with his deputy.
They inspected ITO boilers in Stearns
county, of which eighty per cent. were
thFashing engines. They were, as a
whole, in excellent condition, not owe.
five per cent. being unfit for immedi-
ate use. The others were marked for
repairs. Mr.. Larsen said that the
threshing boilers and engines were in
better condition than he had found
them at any previous inspection,
which indicates that they have been
more intelligently used and given bet
ter care when not in service. The in
sector is an intelligent gentleman and
his call at this Office was pleasant
one.

Col. E. Bridgman. and his brother
in-law, Nels Nelson of Henning, re-
turned Friday from their trip to the
Pacific cost with the lumb erman's ex-
cursion. They had a great trip, see
ing all the sights from Portland to
the northern line. Everything pos
sible was done to make the trip a
pleasant and profitable one. Col.
Bridgeman says there is great aetiv-
ity in the west and especially at
Seattle, where the people are simply
crazy over the gold discoveries in
Alaska. He says one would imagine
there was strike or fire to see the
great crowds on the street at Seattle.
The greatest boom is in dogs and
ponies, although stores are cleaned
out of supplies such as are needed for
the Alaskan trip. He is confident
that business of every kind is going
to be very active the coming year

are scores of trees in this city over
hanging the sidewalks SO low that it
impossible to walk under them with
parasol or umbrella. In many in
stances, after and during a rain one
is compelled to stoop to- get under
lem. An obstruction as serious rs
tits under foot would get Immediate
attention, and yet this is no less an
noy ing. Furthermore, trees trimmed
to fair height are far more orna-
N entail and less liable to induce dis
ease. Let the sunlight and air in
under them.

UTICA GOLD MINE BURNING
Richest Producer in California is Now Be.
ing Flooded.

Angels Camp, Cal, Aug 1.-THE
great Utica mine is on fire. Flames and
smoke were discovered issuing from the
S90-foot level, station No. 4, at 4 O'Clock
this morning. 1t was with difficulty
that the Shift made their escape. Six
men were cut off, but made their way
through the south end OF the new shaft.
The fire is supposed to have originated
from spontaneous combustion, caused
by lard and coal oil.
II is impossible at present TO estima te
the extent of the loss that the fire will
cause, but il is safe to say that it VIII
reach inc hundreds of thousands of dol
lars.
The camp is composed of 5000 inhabi-
tants who are dependents employed in
the Utica group of mines. There are l.
600 men employed by the company, and
should the fire prove as serious as re-
ported these men viii be left in desti-
tute circumstances. Every effort is be-
ing made to quench the fire as rapidly
as possible but gas and smoke are es-
Gaping from all the shafts. The mine is
being rapidly flooded. All the main
pipes have been cut and about 5000
miners inches OF water are pouring
down the shafts. An eisht-inch hose is
playing water into the stock shaft where
the fire was first discovered. II VIII
take ar least four days 20 flood the mine.
and il is estimated that in case no more
serious results should happen afterwards
il will take at least two months TO pump
out the water and fit the mines for reg
ular operations.
On July II. 1895, a similar fire occur
red. and K was seven weeks before work
could be resumed. The shafts are deep
er now and it will take much longer
time.
The Utica mine. which is the largest
quartz gold mine that is worked by the
process, contains an i'm
monse amount Of machinery and is own
ed by the Hobart estate. A considera-
bic amount of property formerly belong
ed 20 the late Senator James G. Fair. II
is estimated that the net profits OF the
mine exceed 81. 500 900 per annum.
