\ PASTORS WORD
in Recommendation of a WeII-
 Known Remedy,

From the Era Headltght, Grand Junction, Ia.
 No higher praise can be offered nor better references given concerning the virtues of Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People than the many voluntary testimonials from ministers of the gos- Del which have come from all parts of Rev. Enoch Hill, pastor of the M. E. church of Grand Junction, Iowa, who saysy: y.y , . s.,, ,.,,.,.,. ,,, +ha ae,o.o., of Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. For three or four years I was Q sufferer from general debility. I seemed to be lacking in vitality, was tired out most of the time and sleep was troubled with headache much of the time and my illness incapacitated me for energetic work in my pastorate.
 "A sister-in-law living in Nebraska, who had used Dr. Williams Pink Pills with good results, recommended them to me and decided to try them. I had taken but two or three doses of the pills when found that they were helping me, and further use of the remedy brought such relief that am glad to offer this public recommenda- tion of Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People in the interest of suffering humanity.
 "I have recommended the pills to many whom have met in my work and am always pleased to indorse the medicine, the excellence of which has been established within my own ob- servstion."
 Signed, REV. ENOCH HILL.

Probably every one has seen time when he wished he could administer rebuke impersonally. The Springfield Republican pictures an occasion when 1t was done.
 The "grouchy" individual came from behind his paper and glared savagely at the woman with the crying baby. "Why can't you keep that brat quiet?' he snarled. What's the matter with 1t, anyway? .
 There was dead silence in the car, and then a pitilessly distinct voice from nowhere in particular replied, "He thinks your face is the moon, and he's crying for it."
 The surly one looked about with a deathly stare. Every one was quaking with mirth, but preserved a solemn countenance except the man who was smiling out of the window at the other end of the car.

 good range. I could see the color of
 his eyes as he came toward me. pulled the trigger of my rife, and both Indians went down together as result of the single shot. It was the first shot from our party, and the double tragedy confused the Indians. Then our whole outfit poured in a whitening
 volley, and I told Sibley it was our time to take advantage of their confu- sion and get through their line back to the gully. I waited until they were all fairly started back through the heavy timber, then, taking the lariat from timber, then, taking the lariat from the saddle of my dead horse, 1 followed.
 "It was mile from where we made
 our stand to the main fork of the Tongue river, and the woods were full of terrible windfalls. and it was awfully hard travelling. The first 200 yards the
 men had to simply squirm their way through the timber and keep very low. The savages had a comparatively thin line at our rear, as they knew the char acter of the country and thought we would be helpless without our horses. "When I rejoined the men, sent Bat in the lead and I covered the rear The soldiers took off their boots and stepped from rock to rock in order to leave our trail as blind as possible. About dark a heavy rainstorm, with much wind, came up and soon drowned out the fir 4v,~r hot Our policy of holding our fire so fooled them that they did not rush our camp until the following morning, fact that I learned later. The storm was wild and terrible. We were drenched, and the timber began to fall all about us. We kept in a territory where horses could not travel for reasons of our own, and we hit an unblazed trail over the mountains for the following 45 hours without mouthful to eat. Sometimes the squirrel path was so steep that Bat and had to pull the soldiers up over the rocks with our lassoes.
 '"The following morning at 3 o'clock we forded Goose creek, the cold water coming up to our armpits, and at day light fell in with a scouting party of the Second cavalry. Then we went back over the trail and picked up two of our exhausted soldiers that had giv- en up. We had been under hot fire nearly ten hours, had travelled 50 miles over terribly rough mountain country and during all that time had not en- joyed the luxury of a ration, as we were forced to abandon everything when the Indians sighted us except our hope and our ammunition. Yet we nev- CT lost a man.
 "Poor Little Bat! He was in the lead
 Just to think of it! Now he is snuffed out as the result of cowardly misdeal in a miserable saloon fight"

From nine till twelve the village street In sunny silence lies. The chickens rustic in the dust; The old dog snaps at flies.

 A man who gave his name as Angus tin Anderson, 129 East 124th street, New York, walked into the Apothe- carries hall at o'clock last evening and asked for an ounce of arsenic It. was given to him properly marked poison Some time later. about ? o'clock this morning the same man was picked up on the green by Officer John Sullivan. who took him to the police station where he informed Lieutenant Dodds that he had swallowed quan- tity of arsenic. Dr David was called and on seeing the patient was satisfied that he was suffering from arsenic poisoning. He had the diarrhoea and vomited frequently The doctor re mained with him until o'clock, when he appeared to have revived sufficient Iy to warrant the belief that he was over it and would be all right after a little rest, and thinking that his as sistance was no longer necessary, the physician left. At 4:30 o'clock he took a bad spell and the doctor was called again. This time he saw that the mans chances of recovery were very poor and learning that the man was a Cath ollie it was decided to call a priest. Word was sent to the Immaculate Con- ception church and Father McGuane responded. The man was conscious when the priest arrived and fingered until 6 o'clock this morning when he passed away
 Medical Examiner Axtelle viewed the body and gave permission for it's removal to Mulville's morgue.

Costello of 127 East 24th street, and as he repeated this to Father Me Guane it is believed that the latter name is correct. He did not act like suicide and Dr David is of the opin. ion that he took it for stomach trouble He went over to the Welton fountain turned the arsenic into his hand, then

put little water on 1t and after swal- lowing 1t turned around and sat down on one of the seats in the green where the officer found him vomiting and thinking he was intoxicated took him to the station. He came here yester- day and claimed to have been acquaint- ed with several people about town. He was an employe of the New York Tele- phone company and apparently in the neighborhood of 35 years. about five feet ten inches tall, heavily built, sandy moustache and red hair. He didn't want to die and on this account 1t is thought that he had taken the dose by mistake, but when he was informed that he was nearing the end he broke down and requested those about him not to notify his friends adding that
 he wanted to be buried Here and leave
 his friends in ignorance of what had
 became of him.
 In his pockets were found a few cents in change, an old pocket knife,
 the envelope in which the arsenic was
 placed when he bought it and slip
 of paper on which was written the
 name and address of James O'Hara, q former resident of this city, but for some time past of Kenosha, Wis. The
 presence of the last named article was explained by Dr O'Hara, who informed the medical examiner that Costello had called at his place and stated that iie wanted to see his brother, James O'Hara. The doctor told him that he was now living in Kenosha, and then he pulled his pad from his pocket and wrote the name and address on it. It looked as if an effort had been made 1 to remove the words "arsenicp and poison" from the envelop, but this might have been due to the handling of the paper.
 Father MeGuane, Dr David and Lieutenant Dodds were with the pa tient when dissolution set in. No ef- l fort was spared to save his life, but | the poison had taken too strong a hold
 of him so that medical aid was of nc avail.
