A Dead Moman.s Bonds.

Mrs. Catherine Schultz, an eccentric
old German woman, died at her home,
four or five miles west of Nashville,
about three weeks ago. She was sup
posed to have lot of money, stocks
and bonds, although she and her hus-
band, the latter of whom died some
years ago, were considered misery.
Last Christmas man named Walker
and his wife moved into the house with
Mrs. Schultz, and have resided there
since. When the administrator, the
Union Bank and Trust Company, had
qualified, a man was sent out to look
for the old lady's valuables. Search
high and low failed to reveal the bonds,
and only $1.10 was found. Last week
Mrs. Walker went to Nashville and
told Col. Colyar, her lawyer, that she
had lot of bonds and coupons that
Mrs. Schultz, in the presence of wit
nesses, had given her. She was directed
to bring them in and turn them over
to some bank. This the woman did,
placing the bonds and coupons in the
First National Bank. The bonds
amounted to between S21, 600 and $780,
900 and the coupons to 5000.

DIR. HOULTON's CRITICISM.
A Story That Shows Gross Mismanage-

A Story That Shows Gross Mismanage-
ment and Neglect.
BALTIMORE, Md, Aug. 29.-Dr. S. S.
HoultOn, bne of the physicians on the
State hospital train that brought the
sick members of the Fifth Regiment
from Huntsville, tells a story that shows
gross Encouragement and neglect
somewhere. He said:
The camp at Huntsville is high and
dry, but l am told the hospital is in
ravine subject to all the drainage of
wet weather. l had the caring of two
cars loaded only with typhoid patients.
1t was a pitiable sight. Two of the
first men who came on my car were
typhoid patients, almost unable to help
themselves. In their weakened and
desperate condition, what kind of food
do you think these men were carrying
with them? Nothing but bareback
biscuit and a piece of salt meat each.
THE idea of feeding sick men on
such stuff is prima facie evidence of
something wrong, but for typhoid pa
tients to be fed on such truck was little
less than murderous. The men told
me that this was all they had for sew
eral days.
'These same men had been lying in
hospital tent, in which stood several
feet of water. The tongues of the
typhoid patients were SO parched and
cracked that they looked like alligator
skin. They had had absolutely no
proper medical attention and, in fact,
were reduced to such a condition that
we fully expected many to die.

A Memphis Murder.

WiIburn Fur, fisherman living in a
cabin situated under the high bluffs at
Memphis, met death one night last
week at the hands of highwaymen and
in peculiar manner. He was held up
as he was going home, robbed of all the
money he had and beaten in the
stomach and breast until fatal injuries
had been inflicted. After that he made
his way home over n most perilous
course and died in his humble cabin.

In Restraint of Marriage.

A final decree was entered at Nash
vile last week in a case which has been
pending in the Chancery Court for some
time. Some years ago Mrs. Sarah E.
Brewer, a wealthy woman of Nashville,
died, and in her will she gave her
great-grandson, Robert NJ. McComas,
$4,000, provided he didn't marry any
woman born in Madison county, or any
woman by the name of Graham. Nc
Comas did not marry any of the Gra-
ham family, but he married Miss Vim
cent, who was born in Madison county,
and this suit was brought to have the
legacy stripped of these conditions.
The chancellor held that the restric-
tions thrown around the legacy were
void because it was in restraint of mar
riage, and also that it didn't seek to
prohibit the beneficiary from marrying
a young lady born in Madison county,
but simply to prohibit his marrying a
Miss Graham.

Regularity is a matter of Importance
in every woman's life. Much pain is,
however. endured in the belief that it
is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth it is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble.
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation of woman's health is
q perfectly normal and regular per
Torrance of natures function. The
statement we print from Miss GER
TRuDE SKIES, of Eldred, Pa, is echoed
in every city, town and hamlet in this
country. Read what she says:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I feel like a
nav person since following your ad-
vice, and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full menstruation and leucorrhoea. i
was nervous and had spells of being
confused. Before using your remedies
never had any faith in patent medi-
cines. now wish to say that never
had anything do me so much good for
painful menstruation as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; also would
say that your Sanative Wash has cured
me of leucorrhea. I hope these few
words may help suffering women"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department OF
her great business, treating by letter
as many as hundred thousand ailing
women during single year.
All suffering women are invited to
write freely to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass. for advice about their health.

able her to be independent. There is no
better way than with a policy in the

At 4S0 In the afternoon northeast storm
signals were displayed at the weather bu-
reau. AT that time the storm was ap-
preaching the Florida coast near jupiter
and Indications of dangerous shifting
winds for the Florida coast with north

evident. At O'clock last night the storm
center was to the north, northeast Of Jup,-

Observer Boyer stated that the outlook
the Florida and Georgia coast was rather
serious, as the Middle and North Atlantic
coast was covered by a comparatively
heavy bank of air which would have a
tendency to check any northerly progress
of the storm and force IL over North Flor
