Lott's Resignation Causes Gov. Johnston to
 Revoke Orders For Impeachment.
Spacial to The Age-Hera1d

Special to The Age-Hera1d
 Montgomery, Sept. 15.-The following official letter explains itself:
 "Montg Ala, Sept. 15, 1897. "Hon. J. H. Webb, Solicitor, Mobile, Ala.
 Dear Sir:-I have your favor enclos- ing resignation of E. B. Lott as tax col lecitor of Mobile county. It is true, as stated by you, that the impeachment of Mir. Lott would only remove him from office for the term for which he was elected; the resignation practically ac- complishes rihese results. For this req son and because I have no desire to bring unnecessary humiliation to MT. Lott, and because this does not any way effect Mir Lofts liability, civilly or criminaMy, his resignation is accepted and the direction to impeach is hereby revoked. Yours respectfully,
 JOS. F. JOHNSTON. Governor.
 Lott, it will be remembered, is Mobiles ex-tax collector, who is defaulter for some $40,000. MT. John Case, who was appointed by Gov. Johnston last week as tax collector of Mobile, was today for warded his commission as tax collector to succeed MT. Lott.

TO CURE DYSPEPSIA.
A New Remedy Winch Will Do It,

Chronic dyspepsia is considered by many people to be nearly, if not quite, incura biIe No good reason can be givlsn why they think so except that perhaps they have tried various remedies without much, if any, benefit. But the progress in every branch of medicine has been such that among other things a lasting cure for indigestion in its chronic form as we'll as temporary, has been discov- cred and is now placsd before the public strictly on it's merits as a permanent cure for all stomach troubles or difficult ties with the digestive organs.
 This new treatment is called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets being put up in tablet form so as to be easily taken and also to preserve its good qualitisS for an indefinite length of time.
 This nemedy has produced surprising effects in the worst forms of indigestion, and in many cases where ordinary liaime- dies failed to give even relief, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have fully cured
 The splendid results from using this preparation are owing to the fact that it Is prepared and intended for dyspepsia and stomach troubles only. It is rot cure-all like so many advertised reme- dies, claiming Ito cure everything under tha sun, but it is claimed that it is a certain cure for dyspepsia, and anyone suiSiihS aioni "iy ioriH oI ihaises.ion cannot fail to get permanent relbaf and cure from its use.
 It Is so prepared and the ingredients are of such nature that when the tab lets are taken into the stoma oh they di- eiast the food, no matter whether the stomach Is in good working order or not. sustenance and strength to mind and body by reason of the food being proper ly digested and at the same time the much abused stomach is allowed to rest and recupsrate.
 Notwithstanding the great benefits to be darived from Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets, the price is but 500 for full sized package and all druggists sell them.
