THREATENED CONSUMPTION.
A Typical Case of Catarrh Cured by ID,
Hartman's Free Treatment.

"A Typical Case of Catarrh Cured by Dr.
Hartman's Free Treatment.
A farmers wife has been troubled
from childhood with catarrh. Until
within the last few years, she has net
been treated for it. But it has become
so much aggravated that she consults
her physician. He treats her and she
perseveres faithfully, without avail, for
months. Then she tries a physician in
the city. Although his charges are en-
%orbitant, her husband gladly pays them;
but she gets no better. The farmer in
despair, sees his wife growing paler
and weaker every day. Acough sets in
and consumption is near.
At last they read about Pe-ru-na.
The husband writes to DIR. Hartman
and receives an encouraging and SYM
pathetic answer. They continue the
correspondence all the while she takes
Pe-ru-na, receiving ley advice and as
sistance in every letter. Her symptoms
leave her m by one. Her color re-
turns. Her cough ceases. At last she
is we'll. In her gladness of heart she
writes to DR.. Hartman, anxious to have
her cure told to others that they also
may be saved.
Such is the history of a typical testi.
monial used by DR.. Hartman in his
books. One of these books will be sent
free to any address by The Forums
Drug Manufacturing Company, Colum.

during the past fifty years. Each one
will be graphically detailed by an eye
witness, while leading artists have been

in the current number of the magazine
Hon. A. Oakley Hall, ex-Mayor of New
York City, sketching the scene "When
Jenny Lind Sang in Castle Garden"
which still stands asthe greatest single
concert in the annals of American
music. Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher in
the following issue will tell of a re-
markable scene in which her husband
was the central figure: "When MI.
Beecher Sold Slaves in Plymouth Pull
pit" Then Stephen Fiske will portray
the furore and excitement "When the
Prince of Wales was in America"
Parke Goodwin will follow this in "a sue
cceding number with an account of the
unparalleled eXcitem ant in Now York
"When Louis Kossuth Rode Up Broad
way" Hon. John Russell Young will

World," Mr.. Young being of General
Grants party. The great scene in the
Senate chamber "When Henry Clay
Said Farewell to the Senate" will fol-

The State journal is to be a daily
paper published at Pierre, during the
session of the legislature, which will
possess some features which are new
in legislative journalism, the chief of
which will be the publication of every
bill which is introduced into either
house. Once a week or semi-weekly as
may seem best, it will give the stage of
progress of each bill. Bykeeping a file
of the paper a man who is at all inter-
ested in legislation may know each day
what bills have been introduced, how
they are progressing, and will be able
to refer to any bill at any time. The
present session in many respects prom
ises to be the most interesting of any
since the state was admitted. It is the
first time that the republicans have
not been in control of either one or
both branches of the legislature and
many bills affecting all manner of in
terests WILDE introduced. It behooves
the public therefore to keep watch of
proposed legislation to avoid the en-
actment of laws which WILDE injurious
to the commonwealth. We believe this
feature of the State Journal alone will
make it particularly valuable to sub
scribers. In addition it will give a
concise history of the leading events
of the legislative daily, paying especial
attention to the news aud political
gossip which do not get into the legis-
lative journals. Politically the State
Journal will be independent, CRITICS.

Nolres Hung.

Albert Voires, one of the murderers
OF Charles Gibson, was hanged at 2:S7
last Friday at Fayetteville. Fayette
county. About two thousand people
witnessed the execution. Voires had
weakened considerably while in bis cell
and wept bitterly when the death war
rant was read tohim, but he died bravely
and protested his innocence. He stated
that he was asleep in Gibson S house
when Stark Lewis and Wilbur Slaugh-
ter killed Gibson, and did not waken I'M
Til Gibson was nearly dead. The con-
demned man, under heavy guard ,
reached the scaffold at 2:lS, and when
gaining the top of the steps ne waved
his hands to the people, saying to them
that he was prepared to die, and wanted
them all to meet him in heaven. A
short religious service was held, during
which Voires joined in signing the
hymn, What a Friend We Have in
Jesus. " Voires then called for Tom
Kinney and other friends in the crowd
to come up on the scaffold and bid him
goodbye. BY them he sent message
of farewell to his father, telling him to
meet him in heaven. He said to the
crowd that he was dying for crime of
which he was not guilty, but he would
meet his death like a man. The sheriff
then pinioned his hands and legs, ad-
Justed the moose and black cap and
sprung the trap. Cries were heard go
ing up in the crowd. Many women
were in tears and the sheriff hurriedlv
left the scaffold, much affected. Tears
were streaming down his checks.
