Just ASSoOn BeDead

Are the words of a man who is
desperate-a man who has tried
many so-called cures, doctors,
and with no good result.
Now, if you are in just this
state, suppose you make a last
effort, if only for the sake of try
ing. Don't put too much conf
denoe in this, yet give it a fair
trial.
A fair trial is all that is asked
for the great Hudyan. 10000
men have given Hudyan a fair
trial, and these 10000 men are
now cured men. Ask them If
they would just as soon be dead.
They would laugh at you. They
are enjoying themselves, living
happy. joyous lives of hope and
constant and ever increasing
strength, having the bounce
and brace, the vim and ambition
of vigorous manhood. This is
what you may expect when you
use the discovery of the big doc
tors of Hudson Medical fame.
Hudyan can be had only from
the doctors of Hudson. No one
else can give you Hudyan. You
should consult these doctors or
write for Hudyan Circulars and
testimonials.

Washington, Jan. 12.-The Pacific
railroad funding bill went to its doom
in the house yesterday under an ad-
verse majority of sixty-six. The
friends of the measure who had pre-
dicted its passage up to the last mo-
ment were surprised by the decisive
character of their defeat. They had
been led to hope from votes on the
substitutes that the bill had more than
an even chance of passage. The Bell
substitute provided that if the Union
Pacific and Central Pacific would clear
off their first mortgage and advance
the governments lien the government
would extend the Indebtedness at 3
per cent. 1t was defeated by a. vote of
lilo to 1873. The Harrison substitute
provided for commission to negotiate
settlemet of the debt 1t was reject
ed, the vote being SIS to 214. Many
members were as much opposed to
these substitutes as to the powers of
the bill. The California and middle
west members voted almost solidly
against them. When the vote came
on the main proposition the whole OPP

seven miles west of here. The COM
munic2tion comes from the sheriff at
Gibson City, who inclosed a photo
graph of the man known here as Fred
Lang, but under arrest there as Fred
Hartman, alias Fred Hoellman. The
morning Of Sept. u last John Mohr,
sen Of Mrs. Katherine Mohr, came to
kenosha to buy groceries. When he re-
turned at 2 o'clock he found his mother
lying on her back on the floor, her
head suspended by a small rope from
the door latch. Il was thought to be
a case OF suicide at first, but the
coroner's inquest revealed the fact that
the woman must have been murdered
Three other murders were committed
in Illinois in exactly the same way.
The photograph received here has been
positively identified and tallies exactly
with the pictures Lang left among
friends in this county. All his victims
were German women. Just prior to
the murder of Mrs. Mohr he was want

sworn out by Mrs. Schram of Pleasant

Strong Evidence in Her Behalf Given

Grand Rapids, Mich. Jan. 9.-Isaac
N. Ingraham, an inmate Of the county
pOorhcuse, related his "reminiscences
of Jay GouId before Charles H. Ben
der as commissioner to take testimony
yesterday. He is 70 years old, but
we'll preserved, and his testimony was
SO positive and direct that a search

it. He was school teacher at
HooSac Falls, n. Y, and in the
spring Of 1853 at Syracuse, n. Y, ar
ranged to work for Gould, then
known as Jason Gould, as a chain
bearer. He worked for Gould during
the summer of 1853 and 1854, knew of
Gould's marriage to Sarah Ann Angel,
which was performed by Rev. Nathan
lei Leighton, and knew both Leighton
and Mary Ann Brown, who witnessed
the marriage. Gould and the woman
Travelled together during the two sum-

left Madison at 500 p. NJ. end reached
Milwaukee at 450, covering the dis
lance of 50 miles in one hour and a
half. Seven stops were made. This
is unusually fast going. The trip was
made on a special train with Thomas
Dolan as engineer and William Haven
as conductor. The object of this
rather remarkably fast trip was to
serve an order secured from the
supreme court against the laying OF
tracks by the Milwaukee, Racine anu
Kenosha Electric Railway company
over those of the Northwestern at
South Milwaukee. Notwithstanding
the decision of Judge Johnson, holding
that the electric railway company has
the right to lay it's tracks across the
South Milwaukee crossing, the North
western people violently opposed toe
construction of the tracks. Trouble
began shortly after 6 a. m. and con-
tinued in various forms until the aft
ternoon. The electric road company
appeared upon the scene at an early
hour with a, gang of about forty mal,
who Immediately set to work to lay
the crossing. The Northwestern COM
pany was prepared for the move and
had a force of about eighty men on
the scene. AS fast as the electric road
workmen would throw out dirt
preparatory to laying the track, the
steam road Workmen, would shovel it
back. When the electric line laborers
railroad men ran a. big engine back
and forth over the point of the pro-
posed crossing and turned on the
steam. The rush of the scalding va
por caught some of the electric read
workmen and burned them quite Sc
verely. The electric road workmen
got very much excited then and began
to hurl stones and clubs at the engin-
eer and the steam railway men.
A number of the men were injured
by the flying missiles. The village
officials took sides with the electric
road and proceeded to arrest the men
who were interfering with the laying
of tracks. About fifteen Of the men
were apprehended, but were immedi-
ately released upon bonds signed by
representatives of the Northwestern
road. Assistant Superintendent Can
tillon was among those arrested by
the thirty special officers sworn in by
the village officials. Excitement
ran high and all sorts of threats were
heard On both sides.
AT about 10 o'clock Engineer W. F.
Goodhue of Milwaukee, under whose
direction the electric road is being
constructed, and Attorney F. M. Kear-
ney, for the same road, appeared with
an order from Judge Johnson to pre-
vent the Northwester road employees
and officials from further interfering
with the construction of the crossing.
AS final resort the Northwestern peo-
pie decided to secure an order for a
stay of proceedings from the supreme
court which they did.
