of his test. He had been haunted for
years with a gradual growing weak

a shadow. His complexion was sal
low and pimply, had dizzy and sink
ing spells, with loss Of memory and
ambition. Always felt tired and out
done, suffered greatly with nervous
ness, and felt that his hearts action
was weak. His digestion was SO poor
his system received no nutriment. He
says he commenced the use Of this
Tonic, taking one tablet after each
meal. He did not notice much change
after using N box only he enjoyed
his meals better, still he kept on until
he had used six boxes. He used the
last box more than six months ago
When he stoppei the use of the Tonic
he weighed % pounds more than he
did when he commenced. Has not
been sick a day since, and is well In
both body and mind. DIR. Gums

70 MARKET 100000 BONDS.

NEW York, May 6.-The Chronicle

ers of the Wabash held yesterday, the
proposed issue Of ten million fifty-year

satisfactory, considering strikes. ETC.,

 A tunnel has been run over 200 feet below the surfacings of those cap- pings. Samples have been taken at different points of the tunnel, with va rious returns in gold and copper, show ing plainly that the gold and copper is saturated throughout this capping.
 I do not mean to say that there is pay ore already, but I do mean to say owing to the enormous bulk, that it re- quires at least a 300-foot shaft to reach the break of this capping where the ore sets in.
 Whale is a claim on the west side oi the four claims, showing capping over 100 feet wide, and out-cropping 12 to 15 feet.
 Monster is on the east side of the first four claims, and has two out-croppings, ore on each end of claim, from 75 to 100 feet wide and from 200 to 45O feet long. each.
 Mountain Giant is north of the Mon- ster. has big croppings and has given up numerous big gold assays.
 There is an abundance of water and wood on the claims for all purposes.

THE LONG LOST
 GOLDEN GATE
A Sea Tragedy of Forty Years Ago
 Recalled.

San Francisco, March 1S.-Amons the passengers on the steamer Newport, which arrived from South and Central American ports today, were Captain E. W. Johnston and a party of treasure hunters which left here lost November in the hope of locating the wreck of the side-wheel steamer Golden Gate. which was burned to the waters edge off the Mexican coast in 1862. The Golden Gate carried much treasure in her strong room, and her passengers individually were credited with having immense sums of money in their pos session, the result of lucky strikes in the California gold fields. The Golden Gate was bound from this city to Pan. anna, and was to connect with an At lantic steamer at Panama. She took fire at sea and sunk, all on board los- ing their lives.
 Captain Johnston reports that the vessel, submerged in eight feet Of water, has been located, and the treas ure or some of 1t found. He exhibits many sea- -corroded and partially melt ed gold coins in proof of his assertion that the treasure has been located, and he returns to this city to obtain appli- ances for recovering the gold that he feels assured is in the hulk of the losr Golden Gate.

LADY ON EDITORIAL
 STAFF OF LEADING RELIGIOUS WEEKLY
Sends the Following Grand Testimonial to the Merits of Cutcura Remedies in the Treatment of Humours of the
 Blood, Skin and Scalp.

''I wish to give my testimony to the efficiency of the Cuticura Reme- dies in what seems to me two some what remarkable cases. 1 had a number of skin tumours small ones -on my arms which had never given me serious trouble but about two years ago one came on my throat. At first it was only about as large as . pinhead, but, as it was in a position where my collar, if not just right, would irritatc it, it soon became very sensitive and began to grow rapidly. Last spring it was as large, if not larger. than a bean. A little unusual irritation of my collar started it to swelling, and in day or TWO it was as large as half n orange. I was very much alarmed, and was at a loss to dc terminc whether it was a carbuncle or malignant tumour.

 About five or six years ago my sister had a similar experience. She had two large Jumps come under her right arm. the result of sprain. They grew rapidly, and our physi- elan wanted to cut them out. I would not listen to it, and she tried the Cuticura Remedies las I did a few months ago) with magical effect. In six weeks time the Jumps had entirely disappeared, ,and have never returned.
 "I have great faith in the Cuticura Remedies, and I believe they might be as efficacious in similar cases with other people, and thus save much suffering, and perhaps life. I have derived so much benefit from the use of them myself that I am

Strange to say, she was very shortly relieved of the most distressing symptoms. The swelling seemed to be exteriorized, and she is now able to be around her house, and can talk as we'll as ever.
 It seems to me that have pretty good grounds for believing that Cuticura Remedies will prove sue cessful in the most distressing forms of blood and skin humours, and if you wish to use my testimonial as herein indicated, 1 am willing that you should do so, with the further privilege of revealing my name and address to such persons as may wish to substantiatc the above state ments by personal letter to me-"

 A large per cent of those who are afflicted with this epidemic, instead of getting we'll as they ought to, will have chronic catarrh as the result. This Is almost invariably the case unless Pe- runa is taken as soon as possible after the grip begins.
 Every one who has observed the effect of Peruna during the last three epidem- ics of la grippe positively knows that this remedy will cure it perfnanently.
 The fact is, however, that great null titude of people will not take Ieruna, and foundation for chronic catarrh will be laid.

Even with the heavy snows and rains of the past win ter there are some of the springs that seem to have dried up permanently.
