Pyramid Pile Cure Cures Piles

People go along for years, suffering with
piles. They try this, and that, and the

obtain temporary relief maybe, but they
are never quite cured. A little strain IN
lifting, excessive fatigue a little constipa-
ton, or a little diarrhoea, and the piles
come back
They don't seem to amount to much, but
they Danish sleep and appetite. No posi-
ton Is comfortable. There is intense local
pain and that dreadful agoniZing feeling
of weight in the perineum.
Maybe in the early stages some OF the
many salves on sale viii afford temporary
relief If the case is of long standing

Other applications may cure and may not.
Pyramid Cure Is always certain. always

News of terrible tragedy at Latuya
bay. Alaska was brought to- this city yes
terday by the steamer Bertha, which
touched at that remote settlement on her
way down from Kadiak.
Steve Severts, miner in the employ of
the Latuya Bay Gold Mining Company.
according to the story told by the Berthas
passengers, shot down in cold blood an
other miner in the employ of the same
company and wounded still another. He
was overpowered and dlsa-med. being
wounded In the struggle. There is no Jail
in the settlement and the miners after
due elaboration decided to hang Severts as
the only way Of preventing him from do
feating justice. The sentence was carried
out in an orderly manner Severts mot
death without finching and unrepentant
to the last.
The murder and lynching took place last
November, but no news Of the tragic af-
fair reached the outside world until brought
out by the Bertha. One of the lynchers
came to Juneau on that vessel and re-
ported the matter to the authorities there.
The Bertha remained there but half an
hour and her passengers are ignorant Of
what steps the officials there have taken
in the matter
Severts. it appears, resolved to kill his
five companions, including woman, Mrs.
Nelson, the wife of one of the men in the
camp. Some say he was insane; others
that he coveted the gold possessed by his
comrades. 1.-THE party was seated at break
fast when Severts without warning pulled
a revolver and began shooting. One man
fell dead at the first shot, a second shot
wounded another and the gun wielder
was in the act of turning the weapon upon
Mrs. Nelson when her husband grappled
with him. In the struggle the revolver
was discharged, wounding Severts him
self. He was overpowered and disarmed.
For eight or ten days he was guarded
by those whose lives he had sought.
When he began to recover he was ques-
toned as TO what prompted his terrible
deed. He not only expressed himself as
unrepentant, but declared that he pro-
posed 10 again attempt to carry out his
murderous purpose. Then It was that the
men of the camp decided to resort to des-
perate means and hanged Severts.
Before doing so they told him of their
intention. He manifested cold indiffer-
ence To their request for Information as
to his relatives, IL he had any, ne at first
fore he went to death is said to have dis
closed tho address of brother.
Latuya bay is filled with ice through
out the winter and isolated for several
months OF the year; hence the slow prog

ing civilization.
