INTENSE SUFFERING
FROM DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TROUBLE.
Instantly Relieved and Permanently
Cured by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
A New Discovery, but Not a Patent
Medicine.

DR.. Eedwell relates an interesting ac-
count of what he considers a remark
able case of acute stomach trouble and
chronic dyspepsia by the use of the new
discovery, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says: The patient was a man who
had suffered, to my knowledge. for
years with dyspepsia. Everything he
ate seemed to sour and create gases in
the stomach. He had pains like rheu-
matism in the back, shoulder blades and
limbs, fullness and distress after eating,
poor appetite and loss Offesh; the heart
became affected, causing palpitation
and sleeplessness at night
L gave him powerful nerve tOnics
and blood remedies, but to no purpose.
As an experiment 1 finally bought a so
cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at a drug store and gave them
to him. Almost immediate relief was
given, and after he had used four boxes
he was to all appearances fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
Watery rlsings, no blOaung after meals
the appetite was vigorous and he mas
gained between 10 and II pounds in
weight of solid, healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia, Tablets
are advertised and sold in drug stores,
yet I consider them a most valuable ad-
dition to any physicians line of remed-
les, as they are perfectly harmless and
can be given to children or inValids or
in any condition of the stomach with
perfect safety, being harmless and con
tanning nothing but fruit and vegetable
essences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges-
ton, biliOusness, constipation and all
arrangements of the stomach, however
slight or severe"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made

BOERs INVINCIBLE.
Returned Frenchman Says England
Cant Whip Them

New York, Dec. 1s.-M De Long, the
manager of the dynamite factory at
N1odderfontein, in the Transvaal, has
just returned to France, and has been
interviewed by the representatives of
several Of the Paris journals. He says
that the British government can have
had no idea of the vast extent of the
preparations that the Beers have been
quietly making for years, with the re-
aliZation that another struggle with
the full force of Great Britain was in
evitable. Even should the Beers be
driven out of Natal, he points out, no
British army could ever hope to enter
the Transyaal and survive.
Since the war began, he says, heavy
artillery that had been carefully stored
away has been brought forth He as
serts that the forts at Pretoria and
Johannesburg are as strong as any
fortresses in the world, and have within
the last month, been rendered absolute
ly impregnable, while Edelberg alone
could hold its own with 25 men against
1000 assailants, particularly in the
rainy season, which has just begun,
causing unfoFdable streams suddenly
to spring into existence.
NJ De Long states that there are
about 5000 well trained German Volun-
teers in the BOer army, who have not
yet been allowed to go to the front
He adds that the governments of the
Beers republics are showing a great
economy of strength, and have not yet
used a third of their military resources.

Joseph Brannigan paid it. Mrs. Maggie
Oberlie, twenty five, red-Iipped and a
widow, shifted openly at the appraise-
ment of the court. Four hundred dol
lars was her idea of the damage her
left cheek had suffered at the assault
OF Mr. Brannigan. Mr. Brannigan him
self had agreed to pay $3.50 to smooth
over his indiscretiOn and keep the tale
of his repulse from the ears of the
world.
Mr.. Brannigan was a regular caller
upon the widow. In a moment of rap
ture he kissed her
Just here, your honor" she declared,
touching the dimple in her left cheek
with a black-glOved finger
My cheek might have brushed hers
Mrs Oberlie's, I mean" Brannigan
admitted under a crOss-fire of questions

BANK PRESIDENT RESIGNS
Christian Devries Resigns From a
Baltimore Institution After 20
Years Service.

Baltimore, Md. Dec. 1S.-The Amer
lean today says:
Mr.. Christian Devries, who had been
president of the National Bank of Bal
timOre, Baltimore and st. Paul streets.
for nearly twenty years, has resigned
his position The resignation was sent
to the bank on Saturday afternoon
about 1 o'clock. and was a great sur
prise to the few who heard of it..
Neither the officers of the bank nor the
directors had any intimation that Mr..
Devries intended to resign. Major
Alexander Shaw, one of the directors,
stopped in the bank Saturday afternoon
shortly after the resignation reached
the bank, and he was the only director
who knew of it until today.
The causes of the resignation are not
definitely known, and Mr.. Devries' ac-
tiOn is bound to create considerable
surprise in banking and financial cir
cles. A representative of the American
called today at the Devries residence,
Washington place and Madison street
but was told that Mr.. DeVries could not
be seen. A special meeting of the di-
rectOrs has been called for Monday
morning at 10 o'clock, when action on
the resignation will be taken. and when
another president may probably be
elected.

SOUTH PACIFIC STATION
One to Be Established by the Navy at
an Early Date.

New York, Dec. 18.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
In view of the number of flag officers
available for sea duty, there is reason
to believe that a South Pacific station
will be established as soon as condi-
tions in the Philippines admit of the
withdrawal of some of the ships now
under Rear Admiral Watson's COM
mand.
The Importance of a fleet on the west
ern coast of South America has been
thoroughly appreciated in naval circles,
but because of the limited number of
ships and flag officers it has not been
possible to maintain a station there,
and for this reason the Pacific was
placed under the command of one Off
Ger. The extension of American SOW
ereignty over some of the Samoan is
lands, and the prospective establish
ment of a cOaling station in the Gala
pagos group are indications of the i'm
pOrtance of the South Pacific in the
eyes of officials.
Orders have been issued by the navy
department, directing that the battle
ship massachusetts,, as well as the In
diana, be placed in reserve at the
League Island navy yard The Massa-
chuSettS is now undergoing repairs at
New York. It is proposed to keep a
large crew. on board each of these yes
sells and to retain their present COM
condition for immediate sea service.
The men obtained from the battleships
will be used for service on board the
battleships Kearsarge and Kentucky,
when they are placed in commission
early in the new year.
The Iandsman training ship Hart
ford, under the command of COmmO-
dOre J NJ. Hawley, is expected to leave

When the supposed robbery was re-

Mrs. Siegfried was certain she left the

Chief Ramsey told the officer not to

felt certain the rings had been mislaid

other miners are also sick as a result of
their inhaliug the deadly vapors.
The force of six men working at the
I.ooo.foot level started to come off shift
about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The signal to FIRE was misunderstood by
the men, and the holes we're fired at dit
ferent times. The miners were in con-
sequence overtaken by the smoke.
They reached the cave at the bottom Of
the shaft in more or less dazed condi.
ton and gave the signal to hoist, but it
seems they were too weak for short
time and we're unable TO give the proper
signal. They were finally. however,
brought to the surface and soon regain.
ed their normal condition.

Captain L. P. McGwire of Longmont
a Silver Republican. announced at the
Boulder station today that he is an aspir-
ant to the senatorial toga now worn by
Hon. James P. Maxwell. Captain NC.
Gwire expressed the sentiment that the
office belongs to Longmont this year. but
did not say whether he had become a
Democrat. He rather left the inference
to be drawn that he is attached to that
indefinite and impalpable late organiza.
ton. the Silver Republican party. Capt.
McGwire is an attorney. son-in-law to
the late General Byron L. Carr and said
that his only reason for aspiring to legis-
lative hon ors is laudable desire to cas-,
his vote against renegade Wolcott.
