AN lNTERIvsz TIT EMIT
HEART.
STOPPED every THIRD BEAT.
But Mrs. Stropes Heart Now no Longer Lays but
Throbs Regularly.
From the Leader, Cleveland, Ohio.

In large, commodious house at No. 1O4
Huntington Street, Cleveland, Ohio, lives
Mrs. Emily A. Strope, widow of the late X. NJ.
Strope, and she is the mother of a young man
who has been, and is now one of this city's
successful and energetic pharmacists. Mrs.
Strope, who has lately recovered from serious
cardiac difficulty, when questioned by re-
porter regarding her late illness, stated as
follows:
"Two years ago, had my first experience
with DR.. Williams Pink Pills. For long
time was troubled with an ailment which
feared would eventually drive me crazy unless
l rid myself of it. 1t will sound strange, no
doubt, tosome, but my heart did not beat as it
should. Its action was irregular. There
would be two pulsations or perhaps three, and
then sudden cessation. My heart seemed to
rest for the period Of one or two beats, and
then resume its action. Sometimes such
lapses would not be so frequent us that, but
scarcely day passed that they did not occur.
It felt as though something would strike the
heart with great force, and push it out OF
place. During that period, whenever / lay
down to sleep or rest, my hands would become
perfectly numb and helpless. Icould feel the
temporary paralysis coming over them, but
could do nothing which would prevent it. My
feet were affected in like manner, and had
considerable difficulty in walking when such a
spell had possession of me. Naturally that
state of affairs completely upset my nerves, and
any one whose nervous system is we'll nigh

But Lambert waited to hear no more.
With Burns at his heels he sprang down
the dim pathway, and had not gone 80
yards before he came upon some strug-
Cling object crashing into the brush
towards the stream. "IIalt!" he
shouted, and, while something halted,
other something's, with muttered oaths,
went plunging on. He heard splash,
hoofs Gathering over gravel, the lash
ing of a whip, and then all was still
across the dark open space through
which flowed the sluggish branch"
But here among the bushes were two
wondering quadrupeds, one mule
with broken bridle-rein, the other, as
Burns lantern speedily showed, q
Cherokee pony-both saddled. A cor
poral came running to join then, and in
a moment the beasts We're led back to

by this time stood ready to receive them.
One glance was nll the latter needed.
"What did tell you. captain?" said
he, in triumph. "That is Wal Scroegs'
own pony, and the masters hiding there
at the Walton place."
Ten minutes more and a strange, sol
emn scene was being enacted ut the
head of the steps leading up to that
broad, vine-covered old porch, whose
dingy white columns doomed dim and

A WONDERFUL INvENTIONs
Prof Rowland's Multtplex Printing Tels-
graph Ready.

Prof. Henry A. Rowland of the Johns
Hopkins university, inventor of the
multiplex printing telegraph, has per-,
fected the apparatus and it will soon,
be given, practical trial by one of the
large telegraph companies.
BY the instrument the operator can
transmit telegram written upon
typewriter and have it reproduced in
typewriter form at the receiving end.
In addition to the typewriting part of
the invention DR.. Rowland, with his
new machine, can send over the same
wire five or six different messages at
the same time in one direction, which
in duplex makes ten or twelve messages
that can be transmitted on the same
wire at the same time. Thus with five
operators at each end of the line send
ing each an average of 80 words min
ute 800 words can be transmitted each
minute.
DR.. Rowland inquired at the patent
office in Washington and was informed
{ that no such invention has ever been re-
ceived there, typewriting telegraphy
having been attempted before, but up
on entirely different principles. He has
used synchronous device in his inven-
ton and in the mechanical arrange
/ nlent of the typewriter has used but
eight signals, the letters being pro-
| duced by combinations.
The current of electricity transmit
ing the message can be relayed and in
this manner the invention can be oper.
ated for great distances. DR.. Rowland
says the new instrument will be as con
venient and as easily operated as the or.
binary telegraphic dispatching and re-
ceiving apparatus.

REIGN OF TERROR.
Caused by Feud in an Oklahoma
County.
BAD MEN INVADE TOWN or STROUDE.
Residents Terrorixed nnd Afraid to
Venture from Their Homes
Reported Lynching of
Two Men.

Guthrie, o. T., Feb. 6.--The telephone
line to Stroude is working, and partic-
ulars of the raid there can be obtained.
Two weeks ago, while quarreling over
some land, Jim Griflis was shot and
nearly killed, and his father slightly
wounded by Henry Lustin. Lustin was
arrested, but admitted to bail Wednes-
day. Old man GrilIis and three of his
sons, accompanied by four other men,
rode into Stroude and compelled every
body to close their stores and hide
away, saying there was going to be u
battle. Several hours later as Henry
Lustin, his son Everett, Jim Furber and
old man Robinson We're entering the
town they We're ambuscaded and COM
PEELED to surrender by the other crowd,
who bound them to horses and rode off
into the Creek country with them.
Later they released jim Furber, who
returned and said that they had de-
clarcd they would hang old man Lustin,
and shoot his son and Robinson. The
people of Stroude were completely ter
rorized, and most of them have been
afraid to venture from their houses
since. posse was organized at
Chandler to go to the rescue of the
three men carried off, but there is little
hope of reaching them in the woods
and mountains of the Greek country.
A late message from Stroude says that
u report has reached there that Henry
Lustin and Robinson have been found
dead, hanging to trees and their bodies
riddled with bullets, but it cannot be
confirmed. Stroude is south of Sac and
Fox agency, and this encounter gave
rise to the reports Thursday of raid
on the agency which did not take place.

But the words fell on senseless ears.
The lady of Walton hall slipped swoon-

"One's enough for me, as things have
turned out. Now, what are you going
to do with the other?"
"Leave him here, with his mother
where he ought to be, of course. You've
got no cause to arrest him."
"But you have, anyhow"

Gladness Comes

With a better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it's the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. II is therefore
ali important, in order to get it's bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
| afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
