The lad, however made light of his
illness, and refused 10 take any medicine

his refusal to use the remedies pre-
scribed
Mr.. Mclane further stated that upon

The purchase OF the Jefferson iron
works property by the La Belle iron
works stockholders, has lent new life
to business financial and Industrial az
fairs in Steubenville. There is much
JOY felt over the purchase among nall
ers who see in all probability that the
cut nail business. which has been dead
there for twelve years, will now be re-
vived. The jefferson furnace, which
has been operated for year under
lease from the receiver. by the Aetna
Standard people, will no doubt be oper-
ated by the purchasers. as the lease
was cancelled yesterday by order OF the
court
The sale to the La Belle iron works
was confirmed by court yesterday, and
Receiver Wallace is ordered to pay the
bonds and interest. The bonds are in
the hands OF T. A. Hammond, OF Steu-
oenvllle. as trustee. and are held by
Steubenrllle and Wheeling banks. They
are Tor $4,000, with interest. The total
Indebtedness is $4,000 and this leaves
very little for the stockholders OF mill
whose 500 shares have sold for $3.50.
u. ]. Sinclair. the banker who made
the purchase for the La Belle. yester-
day purchased a tract OF land north Of
the mill. which has belonged to Lewis
Anderson, and a tract south OF the fur
mace belonging to Levi Myers. This
gives the La Belle a large stretch OF
laPd for expansion" and although Il is
not stated authoritatively. it is given
out that the La Belle intends 10 make
some extensive improvements. They
Will operate the rolling mill and Will
start II as soon as possible. They will
no doubt go ahead with the furnace
which Is one Of the best equipped in
this valley. How soon they will star;

known. but from hints dropped, 1: will
not be long until they will be nip

HEART DISEASE.
Do not be Alarmed, but Look for til,

Cause.
Heart troubles, at least among the
Americans, are certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the
excitement and worry OF American bus
mess life. tits more often the result OF
weak stomachs o. poor digestion.
Real organic disease'is incurable: but
not one case In hundred OF heart trou-
bic is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion Is because
both organs are controlled by the same
great nerves. the sympathetic and
pneumogastric.
In another way. also the heart Is eff
fected by the form OF poor digestion.
which ca'ises gas ard 'erir,t iation
from halt-digested food There Is a
feeling OF oppression and heariness in
the chest caused by pressure OF the dis
tended stomach on the heart and lungs,
interfering with their action: hence
arises palpitatlon and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making 1t thin and watery. which irri-
tates and weakens the heart
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble Is TO improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation OF
food
lHiS can De done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuafts Dyspepsia Tablets. which may
be found at most drug stores and which
contain valuable. harmless digestive ell
ements In a pleasant. convenient form.
1t Is safe to say that the regular. per-
sistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's at meal time will cure any form of
stomach trouble except cancer of the

AUTHORITIES ACTIVE

In Efforts to Ferret out the West
Liberty Mystcry-No Tangible Clues
of the Gang who Assaulted and
Robbed the Papcs.
There were no developments yester-
day In the West Liberty sensation. ex-
cept that the reward OF $500 offered for
the arrest and conviction OF the gang
that assaulted and robbed Henry and
Fritz Pape has had the effect OF spur
ring on the efforts to detect the guilty
parties. The Pape homestead, on Short
creek, about three miles from West Lib
erty. was visited yesterday by county
and city officials, and amateur sleuths
in search of clue.
Sheriff Richards and Prosecuting At
torney Meyer yesterday afternoon drove
out to the scene, and acquainted them
selves with the details OF the occur
renee. Deputy Sheriff Lyle and two of
Chief Clemans' men were also looking
up information. while number OF
others unofic!ally interested interrogat-
ed the victims and their neighbors. 1t
is said the officers have clues to the
Identity Of the three masked men, but
believing that evidence must be secured
to substantiate any claims, they are
properly reticent in talking for publi-
cation" The case is clothed In mys-
terry. yet there are hopes OF landing
the guilty ones.
The Papes have ascertaned their loss
of money to be exactly 1910 70. This
sum was hidden In two different places,
which the brothers felt resigned to re-
veal after being attacked so brutally.
and they are thankful for getting off
with their lives. Henry Papes nose.
which was slit by blow of club, Is
his most serious injury and It Is ques-
ton but what he may lose that organ,
for while a physician has stitched It
there are fears that 1t will not heal. In
dignatlon over the affair does not de-
crease whit, and the community will
rejoice when the three fiends are
brought to justice.
