EOUND DEAD.

Why did he do iti He had everything
TO live for,-happy home, wife, friends
money; but he shot himself through the
heart. Whyp
He couldn't have given a good reason
himself But everything looked gloomy
TO him. He was in a gloomy frame of mind
II was the way he looked at life that day
He had been living in too much of hurry,
rushing and driving at business, hustling
through his meals, cutting short his sleep
His nerves got on edge his stomach and
liver got out of order; he grew dyspeptic
and melancholy.
When the digestion is out of order there
Is little use trying 20 look on the bright side
OF things, practically there isn't any bright
side. This is dangerous condition to get
into. Yet II is easy to get into and mighty
hard to get out of It, unless you go about It
IN the right way.
There Is a remedy that has pulled thou
sands OF people right out of this depth of
despair. 1t is DR.. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery: II acts directly upon the stom-
aeh and liver. 1t restores their natural
capacity to nourish and purify the system
1t puTges away bilious poisons, feeds the
nerve-centres with healthy, highly vitalized
blood, and drives out the blue devils of
melancholy and nervousness.

MEETING OF COLUMBIA HOSE.
Dissatisfied with Delay of the Coun-
ellis to Provide a Teamster.

Last evening an adjourned meeting
of the Columbias was held, when a
great deal Of dissatisfaction was ex-
pressed at the action of the city ooun-
ellis on Monday, in referring their re-
quest for a permanent man to care for
the hose house and team to the fire
committee. They decided to return
the new team of grays and expect IL a
team is secured that the expense will
b paid by the city. 1t is said that the
Mitchell Hose company will take the
same course. The feeling is expressed
that the councils should furnish the
teams and a man to care for them. In
that case, the teams could work for the
city on the streets and in a short time
the cost of the horses would be paid.
The new team was returned to Mr..
Cobb yesterday, and so the result is
quite uncertain. The Columbias have
made their arrangements to visit Port
Jervis Sept. ., on a special train. The
hose wagon will be taken with them.
A heavy black team has been engaged
for the occasion.

found in field near the No. 3 breaker,
with several deep gashes in his throat.
He was very weak from loss of blood.

inflicted. He professed an entire ig-
torrance of the English language, but it
was found that, being out of work, he
