her, and she had recently given him some
good advice about his bad habits. Ayres
told her he left home when he seven
teen years old, he did not get along well
with his stepmother and his life had not
been the happiest. Miss Marcy called on
the coroner yesterday anxious to see the
body of her friend, but the advice given her
was that she should wait until his body is
prepared for burial and removed from the
mOrgue. 1t was learned that he had inn
bibed a little beer Tuesday night before he
returned to the hotel, but his friends de-
clare he was not intoxicated.
Telegram From Dead Mans Father.
MIR ]. S. Ayres. father of the dead man,
telegraphed that he would reach here this
afternoon from Grand Rapids. He will
probably take the body to Michigan for
burial. 1t is stated that anonymous letters
were written about Ayres several weeks
ago concerning his habits, but by whom
they were written AyreS did not know.
People who were intimate with him think
they were written by a woman who was
jealous OF him.
Late this afternoon Lieut.. Moore of the
sixth precinct who has been active in the
investigation of the case, was informed
that a woman had been seen to enter the
Kenmore late at night on several occasions
during the past two weeks and the detec-
tives are looking for this woman.
Coroner hewitt decided this afternoon
that he would hold the inquest Saturday
morning at IL o'clock at the sixth precinct
station.

Diseases Can Be Cured,

If you are suffering from any OBJ
scure, difficult or lingering disease, no
matter of what nature or how many
forms of treatment have failed, you
should consult physician who thor
oughly understands his business. and
devotes his entire time and attention
to his cases.
About six months ago Dr.. A. H.
Swinburne located in Marietta and op-
ened an office in the st. Clair build
ing. He had the best of recommends
tions as a skillful and experienced
physician, and a remarkable record in
ten years of practice, especially in OBJ
scure and difficult cases that had re-
sisted all kinds of previous treatment,
and of just such cases he makes a
speciality. His ability is already rec
ognized, for many such cases are being
cured who are loud in their praise of
the results of his treatment and pa
tients travel many miles to consult
him and several cases have sent 900
miles for treatment.
DR.. Swinburne received a superior
medical education in the best institu
tions of this country, which, with his
extensive experience and constan+
study, gives him thorough knowl-
edge of disease, and enables him to
accurately diagnose his cases, which is
the first requisite for success. Many
cases others said could not be cured
with medicine this skillful physician
accomplished All cases of stomach
trouble are treated with wonderful re-
suits. Abdominal and Rectal diseases
cured permanently by new methods.
Nervous diseases and Lung Trouble
treated with most satisfactory results
Unless you have consulted this ply
sician you have not half tried to get
well. Go and see him and get an ac-
curate diagnosis and an honest opinion
of your case.

Whereas, The Supreme Commando
of the Universe has seen fit to call from
our ranks our late Comrade j. A.
Johnston, and while he had so recently
entered the ranks of the G. A. R., nev-
ertheless he had endeared himself to us
all as we are fully aware that he stood
shoulder to shoulder with us during the
dark and trying days of our Nation s
peril, he sacrificed his blood for our
flag and Nation on the bloody battle
field of Gaines Mills, and although suf-
fering continuously from said wound
he lived to see prosperous and re-un-
tied country, brought about by his suf-
ferings, and therefore, be it
Resolved. That we tender the be-
reaved widow of our Comrade, who
cared for him so tenderly in his sick
ness, our profound sympathy, and as
sure her that she does not mourn alone,
as we have lost worthy Comrado
from our Post, as we'll as she a loving
and indulgent husband, and that eacn
succeeding Memorial Day we will plant
flag on his grave and strew Gods
choicest flowers in loving remem.
brance of our departed Comrade.
Resolved, That copy of these reso
lutions be presented to the widow OF
our deceased Comrade, and that they
be recorded in our Post minutes and

New Store Opened.

An attractive store has been opened
up by the U. G. Company, of which
P. Unger is manager. The location is
on Second street in the Ward Mich
OILS block. The store room is filled
with fine line of furniture, carpets
rugs and ladies' furnishing goods. The
prices asked by the new firm for its
goods are very reasonable.
The two advantages, one of CONNER
cial excellence of material and the 9th
er of cheapness, will no doubt operate
to give the firm good share of trade.
