vote to George .. Neal for lieuten-

the place and will give the state
good service. His only opponent is
Bob Allen, of Dallas, and inasmuch
as Dallas never does anything for

any obligation resting upon Ellis to
compliment Dallas by supporting

A. j. Williams, of Boone, Caught on a
Revolving Shaft,

Boone, March s.-A. J. Williams. a
machinist employed in the Northwest
ern round house, came near being
hurled into eternity without a. mo-
ment's warning Friday morning, but
the accident as 1t occurred will be the
cause of but brief vacation during
which time Mr.. Williams will be kept
busy nursing a sprained shoulder. He
was climbing UP in a ladder to oil d
shafting near the ceiling of the room
in which he was working. He leaned
over the revolving shafting and as he
did so a set screw" caught his blouse
which was hanging loosely from his
body. He tried to extricate himself
from his perilous position, but could
not and had not the shafting been SO
close to the ceiling his body would
have been whirled round and round
till the last spark of life had been
famed out. His having not been able
to pass between the shafting and the
ceiling alone saved his life. AS 1t was

his shoes and stockings, We're torn
from his body.

vile Girl Proven Responsible For
Crime.
Columbus. Junction, March 8. = The
jury has found Thomas Bebb guilty in
the celebrated Muscatine case. There
is no doubt of his guilt, which he Pc
tically admitted at the outset. A I =
perate effort was made by his friends to
have the case settled outside of court,
and the general sentiment among the
people here that 1t would have been
much better for all parties concerned
had the friends of the unfortunate lit
tie girl assented to an arrangement Of
fered. The final proposition made was
that Bebb's friends would pay the girl
$4,000, and that amount was placed on
deposit here for that purpose. Young
Bebb had no means of his own, but two
brothers-in-law, Harry Maxwell and
James Mckee. two OF the best citizens
of Conesville, borrowed and put up 81,
600, while an uncle. Thomas Bebb, fur
nished the balance. In addition to this,
young Croker, who was indicted with
Bebb, agreed to marry the girl and
treat her we'll.
We are told, and on good authority,
that the friends of Della Morley offered
to not prosecute for $4,000.

Eldora. March Smother big dam
rage suit was filed yesterday to be triec
at the next term of court beginning
March II. This case will excite un-
usual attention on account of the char
acter of the allegations set forth IN the
petition and on account of the promi-
nence of the defendant. The plaintiffs
are the widow and heirs OF Hans Mel
son, deceased, and the defendant is A
N. Drake, of Radcliffe.
The plaintiffs allege that Hans Mel
son, in his lifetime, owned 24O acres OF
land in Concord township, Hardin
county That said Drake is an expert
enced real estate man, and on oct. Z,
1897, induced and persuaded Nelson TO
deed his said farm to him at the gross
ly inadequate price of $1,000. That
during the negotiation for said farm
and at the time of executing said deed
Nelson was insane and not capable OF
making a contract, and his condition
was plainly apparent and we'll known
to defendant, Drake. That subsequent
ly Drake sold said farm to one n. j.
Wulfsburg, and that a short time
thereafter said Drake went to Wulfs-
burg and told him that Nelson was in
sane and not capable OF transacting
business and persuaded Wulfsburg to
deed said farm back to said Drake.
which he did with the understanding
that said Drake would reconvey the
farm to said Nelson, but said Drake
neglected to do so, and on Dec. 81, 1897,
said Nelson committed suicide and
subsequently thereto said Drake sold
said farm to other partiIs. That at the
time the farm was sold by Nelson to
Drake the fair and reasonable market
value of the same was $4,000. Plain
tiffs demand judgment for the alleged
difference in value, or $4,000 and in
terest at 6 per cent, making total
claim of s6,333.

inhalers, and nearly all of these gave
temporary relief, but genuine per-
manent cure was very rare.
It is true the most annoying symp-
toms, like steppage of the nose and
throat trouble. are purely local, but
they are simply symptoms and the
real seat of disease is far removed.
Catarrh is constitutional disease, g
blood disorder, complicated usually
with disease of the liver, and to sup
pose that local applications of sprays
powders, inhalers, could ever reach the
real cause of the trouble is ridiculous
The sensible and successful treat
ment is to remove the catarrhal poison
from the system by regulating the liver
and purifying the blood. and this can
only be done by an internal remedy
which should consist of antiseptics and
remedies to act vigorously on the blood
and liver
The best preparation of this kind
which fills all the requirements of a
safe constitutional treatment is Stu
Blood Root, Red Gum and similar
wholesome antiseptics, which are abb
solutely safe to take into the stomach
ana WHICH act upon tNe liver, stomach
and mucous membrane.
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets are large,
pleasant tasting lozenges to be slowly
dissolved in the mouth, thus reaching
the mucous membrane and wind-pipe
and finally reaching the stomach.
DR.. Edmondson, in speaking of the
new treatment for catarrh, says: Il
have accomplished the most satisfact-
DRY results in all form of cataarrh of
the head. throat, bronchial tubes, as
well as cataarh Of the stomach and
liver by using nothing else but Stu
arts Catafrh Tablets. l loy since
threw aside sprays and n .ers as
being inconvenient and a, ne best
mere temporary make shifts"
"Stuart's Catarrh Tablets act I'M
mediately upon the liver and blood and
clear the whole system of catarrhal
poison. They are pleasant and very
convenient to use. and they are not
only the latest, but believe them to
be the best and certainly the safest
treatment for any form of catarrh.'

Tablets at SO cents for full sized pack
