ABLEST DOCTORS
IN AMERICA
Declare There Is a Sure Cure For
Nervous Ailments.
USE OF PAINE's CELERY IS
Openly Advised, Wonderful Results
Recently Effected by Compound.

Buffalo, Oct. s, 1901 An evening
paper publishes symposium of ply
sicians' opinions regarding the efficacy
of various remedies for the cure OF
nervous prostration and attendant ills.
Each physician was asked to express
his opinion, first, whether those dis
eases were durable when once they had
gained a hold upon the patient, and,
second, whether the same remedy
would be beneficial in all cases.
Without exception, the physicians
interviewed declared that nervous
prostratioD, when not too far advanced,
insomnia, rheumatism, Indigestion,
resulting, as it most frequently does,
from deranged nerves, dizzy head
aches, and most liver and kidney COM
plants, were absolutely durable.
But the answer to the second ques-
ton was most remarkable, because,
with two exceptions, all the doctors
mentioned by name Paine's celery
compound, a we'll known remedy,
manufactured by Wells & Richardson
Co. of Burlington, VT, and first dis
covered by the eminent DR.. Edward
Phelps, some years ago, after thor
ough investigation and the accumula-
tion Of great deal of data, both here
and in Germany.
It is probably the one instance, says
the newspaper, where a prepared
remedy has been openly Endorsed by
physicians of such standing. It seems
that the formula of the compound has
always been furnished to physicians in
regular standing, and that the remedy
is generally prescribed By uD-to date
practitioners both here and in En-
gland and Germany, where it is quite
as we'll known as in this country.
Many wonderful cures by the use of
this famous compound are cited, one
of them the we'll known case of Com
modore Howell, of Washington.

EXECUTION OF CHARLES PERRY
Friends Here Believe He Has Paid
the Penalty.

As announced by the Times-Record-
er several DAYS ago, yesterday was the
date fixed for the execution of Charles
Perry, we'll known Americus negro,
in Philadelphia, for a murder in which
he was implicated.
Perry's friends here believe he has
finally paid the penalty,
Every effort was made to save his
neck, though he was a fugitive from
justice here when the murder of Prof.
White, PerrV's victim, was committed
in Philadelphia year or more ago.
While no tidings regarding the exc
cution were received here yesterday
Perry's friends are of the opinion that
he was hanged for his crime.
Perry was driver for the Southern
Express Go. here, when a wholesale
burglary was discovered, He was i'm
plicated therein, seemingly, and at all
events skipped the country and ran
away to Philadelphia.
Within a week he was mixed up in
the murder case for which he may have
died yesterday. His body will not be
brought home.

Game OF Bowls Reviyed.

There are signs and symptoms of
revived interest in the game Of bowls,
one of the oldest outdoor pastiInes in
England. In it's heyday bowls ran
archery very closes-so close, indeed,
that in the interests Of national de-
Tense it was deemed essential to dis
courage the game. Thus it was, prob
ably, that the pastime came to be
looked upon as having something of
an illicit character, and for time was
more or less associated with houses OF
entertainment which were not always
Of the best repute. But, in spite of the
ban of bygone centuries, the bowling
green has survived, more especially in
the north of England and in Scotland.
Nor can there be any more delightful
game than bowls for summer even
ing, more especially for those who
have attained to an age when such
lively physical exertions as are in
volved by cricket and tennis become a
little unwelcome.

Two Masked Men. After Desperate
Fight, Secure But Little booty.
Portland. Ore, Oct. 25.--The north
bound Overland Express train on the
Southern Pacific railroad was held up
by two masked men fifteen mics south
of Eugene at 3 O'Clock a. m. The rob-
bers blew open the express car with
dynamite, but secured no booty, hav
ing been driven off by the express
messenger. Only a registered mail
pouch was taken. Two men boarded
the train at Cottage Grove, and short
distance this side, near Saginaw, put
off the fireman and his helper, uncoup
led the express car and made the en-
gineer, Burt Lucas, run ahead a short
distance. Their first act was to blow
open the door of the express car with
dynamite, tearing the door to pieces
and badly damaging the car. Express
Messenger G. r.. Charles was in the
car. The robbers ordered the messen-
ger out of the car, but he held them
at bay. Then the desperados COM

to enter the car by compelling the
engineer, who was in the hands Of the

the robbers hoping to gain admittance
by using him as protector, but
Charles used his shot gun to good ad-
vantage and kept up good fire di-
rectly over the engineers head, know
ing well the robbers would attempt
to follow him into the car. Finally
the robbers turned their attention to
getting away with what little they
could from the mail car. They OBJ
tanned the registered mail and then
taking the engineer on board the en-
CINE, which they cut loose from the
train, ran to within half a mile of
Eugene, where they left the engine
and started toward the Willamette
river in northerly direction. The
passengers were not molested.

JOCKEY KILLED IN A RACE.
Awful Fall at Morris Park Results in
Olsen's Death. 2


New York, Oct. 25.-A chapter Of
accidents married the racing at Morris
Park. Alexander Olsen, one of the
jockeys, received injuries which result
ed in his death few hours later, two
horses were killed outright, another
was so badly hurt it had to be shot
and three other jockeys had narrow
escapes. In the first race King T. fell
at the water jump, directly in front
Of the grand stand, and broke his neck,
Barry, the jockey, escaping injury. 1t
was in the fifth race that Olsen met
with his fatal mishap and when he
was picked up it was at once seen he
was most seriously hurt At the
Fordham hospital the surgeons founa
his skull had been fractured. He lived
until o'clock Olsen was IS years
old and was riding Timothy Foley for
K. L. n. Anderson. The race was at
one mile for maiden 2-year-olds and
upward. Just after the start Timothy
Foley was apparently crowded on the
fence and went down. The field went
on and when rounding the far turn
Johnny of Navarro, with Cochran up,
overstrode himself, and, twisting a
plate, turned a complete sommersault,
while Councilman Tom, J. Callahan
riding, fell over him. Johnny Of
Navarro was killed and the other
horse was SO badly hurt he had to be
shot The jockeys marvelously es-
capped and walked back to the stand.
All this threw a damper on the days
