Muscatine. Aug. 26.--Chief Of Police
Brewsaw. of New Boston, while at
tempting to arrest a man last evening
was stabbed twice with big knife, re-
ceiying two dangerous altho not ia
tai wounds upon his chest. His assail-
ant Immediately made for the river
where he was pursued by posse of ex-
cited citizens. Clambering on board
boat he held the crowd at bay with
a shotgun and fioated down the river.
a companion who was with him failed
to get to the boat and remained in hid
ing in the town. A mob of citizens,
nearly 100 in number armed to the teeth
with shotguns and all manner of weap-
ons run him to earth in blind alley.
Here he turned desperate and flashed
big revolver on the crowd firing, so it
is said, once over their heads. He was
quickly covered and seeing that the
odds were against him surrendered.
Slabs Him.
The trouble started early in the day
when the two men whose names are
unknown landed in the city and pro-
ceeded to get drunk. They were orr
dered out of town late in the day by
Marshal Brewsaw. 1t is said that as
soon as the marshal came near the
first man he was seen to reach for his
knife. When the officer laid his hands
on his shoulders he stabbed him twice
in an instant and turned to flee. He
was knocked down and trampled upon
by bystanders. but finally managed to
make his escape down to the river
where he obtained a shotgun from the
bow OF the boat and holding off the
crowd made his escape.
Catch Companion.
His companion was headed off from
the boat, however, before he could
reach ii and turned and fled back to
the town. Here he was finally cor
nered in the blind alley and with his
revolver ready for use faced the mob
which by that time numbered nearly
100 people. A shot went over the
heads of the crowd and in an instant
fifty guns were trained upon him. See
ing the futility of escape, he surren-
dered and was handcuffed and placed In
the Jail. The marshal will recover from
his wounds.

x NEW PRINCIPLE IN MEDICAL
SCIENCE.

For years it has been the practice of med
ical men to treat patients suffering from piles
sby local. external applications. These treat
ments give but temporary relief, but have
never affected a positive cure.
After months of research and study, &C.
companied by actual experience with various
patients, DR.. c. A. Perrin arrived at 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 DR.. PERKINS, PILE
SPEcIrIc, which is put up in bottles, retail
ing at all reliable drug stores fol S1.O0 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 y
positive cure has not been effected.
DR.. PERKINS, Pile Specific is sold under a
positive guarantee by the druggist making
the sale, to refund the full 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 orinternal piles can try this internal
remedy with the absolute Certainty that it
will cost nothing unless it cures. Here is
what one sufferer says of this wonderful
semedy:
DR.. c. A. Perrin, Helena Mcnt.-I wish to thank
you for the cure your wonderful medicine has done for
me. I had the piles five years, and under tie
advice Of doctor had them removed by the knife and
feltfre for awhile but they returned and at once got
bottle of your Perrin Pile Specific and one botte
las entirely cured me. and am good ever was
