Real Estate Brisk.

The milder weather encourages
the property owners and real estate
agents throughout the city and
suburbs to talk, and l. is remarked
that every one of them looks for
ward to an exceptional season dur
Ing the year 1902. There is no
plausible reason to imagine for a
moment that they are wrong. Sis
tersville real property has been
moving freely In the past ten years,
prices going up remarkably as the
prospects of the community come
to be better understood by inves
tors. Only last Saturday there was
sale of real estate, which Is stu
ated on Wells street, and for which
was paid over Sir per front
foot. This Is ample evidence
that this city Is seen In the
light by capitalists that it deserves,
and 1t Is also good evidence that at
no far distant day the oil netropo-
lis of old Tyler will contain some
Of the most gigantic industries to
be found In the Ohio Valley.
Real estate In the heart of the
city Is sought as an investment by
those having money; building lots
are In demand because people In
every occupation have money; a
new high record for buying lots
and building houses has been es-
tablished, while there Is not a sign
to indicate anything but greater
activity than ever In all lines
of real est ate. Gradually the de-
mand for building lots has and
must continue to encroach on the
suburbs. and more rapidly than
ever the suburbs urban. The real
estate business promises to indeed
be more brisk the present year than
at any period In the past, and for
the same reason that everything
else will be active. The produc.
tive power of the community will
be engaged steadily In creating
wealth that will have to find In.
vestment, and every individual will
have his share of the increase and
be able to pay for that which
pleases him most.

THE ROOT OF TIE MATTER.
He Cured Himself OF Serious Stomach
Trouble by Getting Down to First
princiDieS

A man of large affairs in one of our
prominent eastern cities, by too close at
tention to business, too little exercise
and too many club dinners, finally began
to pay ma lures tax, levied in the form
of chronic stomach trouble; the failure
Of his digestion brought about a nervous
lrritability, making it impossible to APP
ply himself to his daily business and
finally deranging the kidneys and heart.
In his own words he says: II consulted
one physician after another, and each
one seemed to understand my case, but
all the same they each failed to bring
about the return Of my former digeS-
ton, appetite and vigor. For two years
1 went from pillar to post. from one sani-
tarium to another, l gave up smoking
quit coffee and even renounced my
daily glass or two of beer, but without
any marked Improvement.
Friends had often advised me to try
a welI-known proprietary medicine
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and 1 had
often perused the newspaper advertise
ments of the remedy, but never took any
stock in advertised medicines. nor could
believe a 5O-cent patent medicine would
touch my case.
ITO make a long story short, I finally
bought a couple of packages at the near
est drug store and took two or three
tablets after each meal and occasionally
a tablet between meals. when l felt any
feeling of nausea or discomfort.
81 was surprised at the end of the first
week to note marked Improvement in
my appetite and general health. and be-
fore the two packages were gone 1 was
certain that Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
was going to cure completely, and they
did not disappoint me. l can eat and
sleep and enjoy my coffee and cigar,
and no one would suppose I had ever
known the horrors of dyspepsia.
"Out of friendly curiosity I wrote to
the proprietors of the remedy asking for
information as to what the tablets con-
tanned, and they replied that the prin-
clpal ingredients were aseptic pepsin
| other natural digestives. which digest
| food REGARDLESS of the condition of the
| stoma ch."
rhe root of the matter is this, the di-
| gestive elements contained in Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food,
give the overworked stomach chance
| to recuperate, and the nerves and whole
| system receive the nourlshment which
| can only come from food; stimulants and
| nerve tonics never give real strength,
| thew give a fictitious strength, Invariably
! followed by reaction. Every drop of
| blood. every nerve and tissue is manu-
| featured from our daily food, and If you
| can insure its prompt action and COM
! plete digestion by the regular use OF so
| good and wholesome remedy as Stuart's
| Dyspepsia Tablets, you will have no need
| of nerve tonics and sanitariums.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
| have been in the market only few years.
yet probably every druggist in the United
| States. Canada and Great Britain now
| sells them and considers them the most
| popular and successful OF any prepara-
! ton for stomach trouble.

day in the history of the institution. By
names for the new session. OF this num-
Der IS are boarders. DR.. Nelson said last
night that he had never had 10 boarders

Nelson said further that he had to turn
away students from four States-West
Virginia, Maryland. North and South
Carolina This veteran teacher has had
marvellous success as president of the
Noman's College. For several years past.
while other colleges Of the State have
had to canvass the State thoroughly and
then not fill their rooms, and some have
had to close their doors because of the
lack of attendance. the Woman's College
has had TO hang out the sign, Standing
room only" which is a free expression,
not having any room for boarders, but
day pupils will still be taken.
DIR. Nelson is greatly stirred up. He
thinks it is a shame that he cannot get
accommodations for all the young ladies
who want to come here He wants a
big school building. He declares that he
can bring 400 girls here next session had
he the room. He just wants building,
and he does not care who puts 1t up Tor
him. Protestants or Catholics.
The Richmond Academy opened Its
eoors yesterday morning under the most
gratifying conditions. More than forty

tained-Two Warrants Unserved.
Mucn TO the surprise OF number OIL
spectators the case against James An
thony. charging him With having oeen
connected with Coles Jordan and waiter
Gathright in the operation of a gambling
house on Broad Street, was dismissed
yesterday morning in Police Court BY
Justice Crutchtield Acting Sergeant
Wyatt, who swore out and served the
warrant, stating to the court that he
did not think he had evidence to warrant
a conviction.
When the case was called Attorney
Harry Smith, representing Anthony,
arose and stated that he was ready 10 go
into a trial Of the case and was preparei
TO prove that his client had not been IN
tcrested in gaming house within twelve
months prior TO the issuance OF the War
rant. Nnereupon officer Wyatt said that
he had talked the matter over with COM
monwealths Attorney Richardson ana
4 ttorney John Garland Pollard and they
were Of the opinion that under the law II
would be impossible to convict Anthony
and the case was forthwith dismissed.
At the hearing yesterday morning 1T
developed that officer Wyatt still has IN
his possession two warrants, which have
never been served one being against
Press Nuckols and the other against
Joseph Mcdonald, and the supposition is
that neither of these men will return to
Richmond to stand trial.
Arthur HanIlins will be arraigned this
morning in Police Court on a warrant
which was served about a week ago. 1t
is more than probable that he will plead
guilty, in which event a sentence of one
day in Jail and fine of 500 will be I'M
posed
AS to the burning Of the gambling
paraphernalia there has as yet been no
time for this set. despite statements to
the contrary. Justice Crutchtield said
yesterday that he would first have 10
hold a conference with Mr.. Richardson
before ordering the destruction of this
property. There are some nice points of
law as to what is gambling parapher-
MALTA to be decided Then the order to
burn will be given.
