The man with consumption used to be
considered just as good as dead. His doc
tors condemned him to death just as surely
as if he had been convicted of murder
and must die on the scaffold at dawn
AL that has been changed. There is
now no reason for the consumptive to
despair. DR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery will cure o8 per cent. of all cases
of consumption. That is a startling state
ment, but true one, Consumption is fed

of impurities in the lungs. If the blood

Gradually the lungs become free and
clear, the lung lining becomes sound and
healthy, and the disease is conquered
Then begins the process of flesh building
and soon the hollow cheeks are full, the
step is firm and elastic, and health blooms
in every feature and in every action.

The Furniture In the once OF MAYOR FaEan
sriGed for Debt.
The furniture and other fittings in the offices
of Mayor Pagan and City Clerk McDermott in
the City Hall, Hoboken, were attached yester.
day afternoon by Constable Frank Hague of
Sheriff IIcller's office to satisfy a judgment for
a $57l.63 claim recently obtained against the
city. The claim dates back to 1880, when Dom
mis- Eagan got a contract to improve Monroe
street. When the work was finished the en-
ginecrs in charge gave q certificate. but as
there had been some delay in the work tho
Council of that year retained a portion of tho
amount.
Eagan sued and the matter was referred to
Supreme Court Commissioners G. h. Cannon.
Before II was settled Eagan died, and his daugh.
ter. Mrs. Mary A. Quinn. was appointed eXecu-
trix of his estate. Nothing was done until re-
Gently. when Lawyer M; J. Cannon took tho
matter up. 1t was found that Commissioners
Cannon Ind decided in favor Of Eagan and the
heirs offered to compromise for $500. Mayor
Pagan insis ed that the matter should be de-
cided by the courts. and suit was brought in the
Circuit Court. with the result that tho original
amount was cut down from $7lS.42 to $57l.63,
which includes interest for six years and costs.
All the notice tho Council took OF Lawyer
Cannon's claim at last weeks meeting was to
refer 1t to the Finance Committee. Lawyer
Cannon therefore obtained a writ from the Cir
cult Court and tho levy upon the goods and
cbattels in the Mayors and City Clerks offices
followed. Probably the matter will be adjusted
to-day,
