youthful runaway located.

Fort Dodge Nov. 9John Jensen. a
youth of tender years, was returned to
his home after a wholly unbidden and
still more unexpected journey to On
aha. The boy made his dramatic ex-
1T last week. when he suddendly disap-
peared leaving no trace behind. The
last seen of him was when he left
school in the afternoon, and it is pre-
sumed that the thought OF punishment
for some youthful misdemeanor which
awaited him at home was the leading
motive for his dramatic exit. The
would-be runaway had bank ac-
count OF $40. which he drew, and ems
barked on his Journey for the wild
west. He got as far as Omaha, where
he stopped for a few days before car
irying his journey farther. In the
meantime all was CONSERVATION in the
boys home in Fort Dodge. Finally
word was received from Omaha show
ing the location Of the fugitive. who
was apprehended before he could pro-
coed farther.

WAS HE MURDERED?
Friends of c. y. shutter, of For,
Dodge Think He Did Not Suicide.

Friends of c. y. shutter, of Fort
Dodge THINK He Did Not Suicide.
Fort Dodge. Nov. cit is believed by
some here that G.. L. Shutter, of this
city, who was found dead in the Graefe
house at Des Aloines Tuesday, was
murdered.
The deceased had been subjected 70 a
great deal of trouble Of late. 1t will
be remembered that his two children
stwins) died, following each other very
closely, but it was not supposed that he
had ever contemplated suicide and his
many friends here do not believe but
what it was simply a case of asphyxia-
ton or else he was the victim of foul
play.
The widow was seen by reporter
and she said that she did not believe
that her husband had committed sui
eide. as he had been in the best of
spirits when he left home. The poor
woman was nearly Frustrated and tht
report that he had ended his life seemed
to prey on her mind.
Shutter was a man not over % years
of age and had been married for some
two Years to Mrs. Miller, a widow o.
about % years of age, who had family
of five children
His domestic relations had always
been said To have been the happiest and
while he was a man who had always
been hard worker and who had never
taken much Of part In affairs in gem
eral. still he was man who was not
averse to taking drink, and there is a
wonderment in the minds OF his friend.
IT he did not get out and meet with
foul play, as he had considerable none,
on his person.
There are several theories advanced
and it cannot be learned at this time
how much money was found by the Off
Gers on mis- person, and the theory o.
murder is being advanced by some who
knew him best.
Some ten days ago he sold his farm
consisting Of 227 acres, to L. E. Arm
strong, of this city. for which ne re
ceived something like $1,000 for his
equity and lie received $500 in cash a,

Is Mf. Jonn ". Atkinson, Independence,
Mo-, in recent letter to DIR. Hartman,
says My wife had been suffering from
q complication of diseases for Is years.
i" Her case had bafHed the skill Of some
Of the most noted physicians. One Of
her worst troubles was chronic constipa-
ton ofseveral years standing. Shealso
suffered with general debility and
paroxysm times as often as sixor
eight times day. At this time she was
passing through that most critical period
in the life of change Of life.
1In June, 1895, i wrote to you about
her case. You advised course Of Pc
ru-na and Man-a-lin, which we ut once
commenced, and have to say it has com
pletely cured her. She firmly believes
that she would have been dead only for
these wonderful remedies.
"About the same time wrote you
about my own case of catarrh, which
was of % years standing, and at times
was almost past going. commenced
using Pe-ru-na according to your in
structions, and continued it's use for
about year, and it has completely
cured me.
II have to say that your remedies do
all you claim for them, and even more.
Catarrh cannot exist where Pe-ru-na is
taken according to directions. Mana
lin is most wonderful medicine for
chronic constipation"

Catarrh is an American disease. Fully.
