A POPULAR r1HSTAKE
REGARDING REMEDIES FOR DYSPEPSIA AND
INDIGESTION.

The national disease of Americans is Indigestion
in its chronic form, dyspepsia, and for the very
reason that 1t is common many people neglect
taking proper treatment for what they consider
trifing stomach trouble, when a matter of fact,
indigestion lays the foundation for many incurable
diseases. No person with vigorous, healthy stOnl-
ach will fall a victim to consumption: Many kid
ney diseases and heart troubles date their beginning
from poor digestion; thin nervous people really
SO because their stomachs out Of gear; weary
languid faded out women their condition to
imperfect digestion.
with weak digestion 1t is not surprising that nearly
every secret patent medicine on the market claims
to be a cure for dyspepsia, as well a of
other troubles, when, in fact DIR. Werthier says,
there is but genuine dyspepsia cure which is
perfectly safe and reliable, and moreover, this
remedy is not patent medicine, but 1t is scien-
tif3c combination Of pure pepsir (free from animal

Requires Personal NOTICE.
Opinion by Attorney Duvall Respect
ing Special Assessment.

ing Special Assessment.
In the matter of the complaint filed by
Mr. Frank W. Hackett, assistant secre-
tary of the navy. with the District Com
misSioners against special assess
ment against part of lot 13. square PA. for
paving alley the attorney of the Dis
trict, to whom the matter was referred,
advises the Commissioners to have no
tice personally served upon Mr.. Hackett.
The Commissioners legal adviser, Mr.. A.
B. Duvall. says two questions are involved
in the case, the service of the notice of the
assessment. and the principle upon which
the assessment was levied. Service was
had by mailing the bill to Mr.. Hackett at
his legal residence. Newcastle, n. H., his
temporary residence being here where he
also maintains his law offices. For the
purposes of the assessment law, an act
of Congress approved August {, 1884. Mr.
Duvall holds that Mr.. Hackett is "a resident
of the District. and that consequently the
notice should have been served upon him
personally or left at his residence or place
of business with some person of suitable
age.
The attorney is of the opinion that the
mailing of the notice to Newcastle was not
a compliance with the requirements of the
law. 1t was legally Insufficient he be-
lieveS. although in point OF fact the receipt
of the notice by Mr.. Hackett. he holds, eff
fected all the substantial purposes of JUS
tice. and gave Mr. Hackett all the infor-
nation that he would have acquired from
notice served in the mode prescribed by
Congress. The question concerning the ser
vice of the notice. says Mr.. Duva1, has
nothing to do with the integrity and suf-
ficiency of the assessment.
As to the principle upon which the as
sessment was levied. Mr.. Duvall says that,
while its application in the case under con-
sideration is onerous, it appears to be with
in the terms Of the law, and is in accord
ance with the construction heretofore put
upon the law in its administration in SINH
lar cases. The attorney, therefore, thinks
the assessment should stand until the
courts adjudicate the principle to be wrong,
and direct the cancellation of the assess
ment. A notice of the assessment. he ad-
vises should be served personally upon Mr..
Hackett forthwith.

most interesting theatrical event Of the
season. Youthful and grown-up Salt

1t was an evening of encores and ev-

to Master Frank Dave and Teresa Tay-

Miss Violet Craig, who is not a stran-
ger to Salt Lake theatre goers, Sc
cured the third prize in her musical
and dancing speciality.
The judges who made the awards
were 0. d. ROmney, F. T. McGurrin
and Mr.. Eugene Lewis of the Deseret
News. The other turns were presented
by Miss Mary and Master Ruel Hal

in which the young man made decid-

Amelia Williams made a big hit with
the audience with her sweet singing.
The act of Mr.. Bert Grips in dialect
singing was received with such hearty
applause that he gave an original spe-
cialty called the song without music
as an encore.
The tramp act of Thomas Norris was
as true to life as it was we'll acted.
The winners of the first and second
prizes are graduates of Professor Ian

Mr.. COHEN ARRIVES.

Home From the Convention-Mrs.
Cohen In Denver.
Joseph NJ. Cohen arrived home from
eral days among friends in Kansas
City and Denver after the close of the
convention. Mrs. Cohen remained in
Denver, where she viii visit friends for
some time.
Mr.. Cohen says that nothing could
have been better than the treatment
accorded his wife at the convention,
and the only thing that happened on
the whole trip to mar her pleasure was
the sensational article that appeared in
the Kansas City Star. and that is at

and not to malice.

Mrs. Cohen was given the closest at
tention w1vn, escorted by Senator
Rawlins, she took the platform to sec
Ond Bryan's nomination. If she had
not been so badly frightened she would
have been heard in every part Of the
great hall. such was the quiet.
Like all the other returning pilgrims,
Mr. Cohen is very enthusiastic over
the outcome of the convention, but he
is too good a politician to hazard a
guess at this early stage of the game.
He does say, however, that Colorado
will go with a who0p for Bryan, in
spite of the wild claims of the Repub-
leans.
