Epidemic Among Children is Nothing
to be Feared.
Doctors of the city call attention to
an epidemic of German measles, which
has made its appe arance in the city.
A number of children have been strick-
en-, and the disease is contagious. The
doctors claim that the disease is tran
STORY, and will last but a few days.
The patient does not become i'll, as IN
cases of the od-fashioned black
measles, and there is no treatment il.
particular necessary, altho 1t is we'll
to call a physician at first. In order
that the case may be properly dag
nosed. and ascertain whether or not
it is anything more serious. The in
itiatory symptoms OF the disease are
similar to scarlet fever and one child
was quarantined for the latter disease,
in order to be on the safe side 1t
later developed that the disease was
nothing but the measles, and the quar-
antine was removed. The German
measles is nothing to be feared and
there are no serious consequences liable
to ensue, as is the case with black
measles.

N|CKER@ON IS
UNDER ARREST
Charged With Bigamy and
Taken In Custody at Mid
night Tuesday
WIFE ARRIVES AT cIRcLEvlLLE
Prosecuting Attorney Charles Ger
hardt, of Pickaway County, Causes
colored Pastors Arrest on Bisarny
Charge as Soon as Mrs. Nickerson
Arrives.

Mrs. Lulu Gilmore Nickerson, the
son, OF Columbus, o., and a bride of
only a little over d year, arrived in
Circleville. O., Tuesday evening, and at
midnight Rev. Nickerson was placed
under arrest at his home In Columbus
where he is living with a 16-year-old
bride, on the instance of Prosecuting
Attorney Charles Gerhardt. OF Pick
away county. of which Circleville is the
county seat.
Mrs. NickeTson's departure for Ohio
was not announced locally because of
the fact that it was feared justice
might miscarry. Friends here have
been watching the local developments
and it was thought that ii the woman's
departure became generally known,
Nickerson would be informed by wire
before his wife could reach Ohio. The
T.-R made arrangements by wire with
County Attorney Gerhardt. and tele-
gram from Mr.. Gerhardt this forenoon
announces the safe arrival of the young
wife and the arrest Of her erring hus-
band.
Rev. Or. Jones May be Witness.
It may be necessary for some one,
an eva witness to the marriage of Rev.
Nickerson and Lulu Gilmore, on Feb.
Is, 1903, to be present at the prelimi-
nary hearing as a witness. Mr.. Ger
hardt states in his telegram that a wife
Is an incompetent witness in Ohio
against her husband in a criminal
prosecution. MIR. Gerhardt adds: In
case of a contest we will need DIR. Jones
or an eye witness to the Iowa mar
rage. The hearing will not take place
later than the 10th inst" DIR. Jones
was informed of the course the affair
has taken, and while not stating posi-
lively that he will go, 1t is believed he
will take sufficient interest to be pres
ent as a witness II it is absolutely nee
essary. DIR. Jones performed the mar
rage service of Nickerson and Miss
Gilmore in this city.
Friends Help tho Wife.
Friends in the city assisted Mrs.
Nickerson in reaching C!rcleville, maxi
ing up a purse for her benefit before her
departure. There are many In the city
who have become quite stirred up over
the Nickerson case. and fed that the
man should not go unpublished when
his guilt is so clearly shown. Nicker-
son was married in Circleville to
Myrtle Zimmerman. on March %. 1904.
Rev. J. A. Brooks performed the cere

A NEW PRINCIPLE IN MEDICAL
SCIENCE.

For wears it has been the practice of med
ical men to treat patients suffering from piles
BY local, external applications. These treat.
ments give but temporary relief, but have
never affected positive cure.
After months of research and study, ac-
eompanied by actual experience with various
patients, DR.. c. A. Perrin arrived at a posi-
tive conclusion as to the exact action of the
various parts of the bowel system, under
different conditions, and when subjected to
various prescriptions.
| He finally prepared that wonderful inter
nal remedy known as DIR. PERKINS, PILE
SPECIFIC, which is put up in bottles, retail.
Ing at all reliable drug stores for S10O each.
This internal remedy has been on the mar
ket for the past ten years, and in all OF that
time there has been but three cases where
positive cure has not been effected.
DR.. Perrin's Pile Specific is sold under
positive guarantee by the druggist making
the sale, to refund the aull purchase price.
providing the remedy fails to cure. This is
the absolute proof of its merit. Any man
or woman who suffers from blind, bleeding,
itching or internal piles can try this internal
remedy with the absolute certainty that it
viii cost nothing unless it cures. Here is
what one sufferer says of this wonderful
remedy:
Dr.. C. A. Perrin, Helena, Mont.-I wish to thank
you for the cure your wonderful medicine has done tor
me had the piles some Ave years, and under the
nyice Of doctor had them removed by the knife and

Ia the Police Court.

r. r. Turner, an aged resident OF the
south side. was arrested by Omcer
Hanson for quarreling with members
of his family. He was charged with
disorderly conduct and was released
upon payment of the costs.
Charles Brown. the colored man who
was arrested and bound over to the
grand jury charged with the larceny OF
q bolt of cloth from the Maier tailor
shop, and who is in Jail awaiting the
session of that body says he is suffer-
ing with contagious disease and
wants to be released. In a letter adj
dressed to Mayor Jones. an epistle Pc
culiar for it's grammatical construction
and spelling, Brown sets forth his
claims to liberty He would like to get
out and leave town so that he might
take treatment. He says: II am
nice fellow. and would not try to steal
nothing if / would not be drunk "
Browns crime carries with it a maxi
mum of two years in the penitentiary.
Thomas Wilson, charged with in
toxication. was given six days Tues
day. Officer Hurd made the arrest.
