ON THE MERCY OF THE COURT
Colonel Porter Plt ads Guilty to Check
 Signing.

"ColoneT' Porter was before Justice
 Burnett yesterday charged with oD- taining money by false pretenscs. The colonel, iJ will be remembered, about tho nrst of this month issued to the firm of Hanna & Munson d S check on the Phoenix National bank which issue led the receivers Of the check to believe that inc colonel was doing his banking business there. As soon thereafter as possible the check was presented for payment and it was found to be wholly unprotected. II was financial or phan. The colonel was allowed three weeks in which to make good but he made nothing but bad and the holders of the check decided to have him ar rested
 lt would have been a good thing for the republican party of this county if this episode could have happened sooner for the colonel though a colored man, was an active democratic work CT and claims the credit of having saw ed that part of the democratic ticket that escaped the cataclysm. He has said. that if the democratic county cen tTal committee had come to the front right he could have saved the whole democratic ticket. the sheriff and all.
 Regarding the matter of the check the colonel says he has nothing to say to controvert the charge against him. There is his name at the bottom of it on which he never gone back. What ever he may be he is not repudiaticn- ist. He accordingly pleaded guilty. He will be brought in tomorrow for sen tence and he prays that the court may have mercy on his soul.

 Mr. C. II. lessen is a well known newspaper man on the coast having been connected with various of the San Francisco newspapers for d long time and now occupies a most responsible position with the Call. Though his er- rand was a melancholy one and his stay SO brief he could form little idea of the resources of this section. he was well pleased with Phoenix and spoke very fiatteringly oi the city. it's mod ern COnvenienCes and general appear ances of prosperity. He was also i'm pressed with the kindness of the many he met and whose sympathy was eN- tended in his hour of bereavement. Among others he met here whom he had formerly known was Frank Holmes. the New York artist. who re- sided fer a time in San Francisco. MT. Jessen's brother whose life was 50 sud denly ended was but little known here at the time but it is now learned that he was a jockey of considerable note on the coast and had a host of friends who are mourning his untime!y end.

1-ifth-That all differences should be
adjusted in legal and equitable man

"A SOURCE OF SURPRISE
To Pnysjc;ap ana Patient Alike.

DR.. Redmond, q. specialist in the study
and treatment Of piles and rectal dis
cases. recently stated that the Pyramid
Pile Cure tie new discovery Tor the
cure OF piles, was the most remarkable
remedy he had ever seen or tried In one
respect; and that was the instant relief
experienced in all cases, no matter how
severe. from the moment the remedy
was applied; this was the more surpris-
ing to- him, because he had carefully
analysed the preparation and no trace
of opium, cocaine or similar poison could
be detected.
Physicians look with great favor upon
the pyramid Pile Cure, because 1t is rap
idly taking the place of surgical opera
tons and because it is SO simple. SO
easily applied. and contains no ninera!
or other poisons so commonly used in
pile cures.
Or. Esterbrook reports that the Pyra-
rious forms of piles. but never fails to
give immediate relief on the first ap-
plication. no matter how severe the pain
or discomfort may be.
People who have suffered from piles
for years are often astonisled at the in
slant relief experienced from the first
application Another important advan-
tageai is the fact that anyone can use the
remedy without detention from business
or interference with daily occupa ton.
AR. j ". Rolins,s#of Sweet Springs.

Pile Cure without an equal; it cured me
in less than 50 days. | waited 70 days
or more 50 be sure was fully cured be
fore writing you: I can now say am
cured and shall recommend the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure a every poss1 PIE oppor-

The popularity of this remedy is such
that all drugsits now sell it at fifty
cents a package, and its sales exceed
those of all similar remedies combined,
