Oil In Alaska.

The recent account of the large ship
ment Of men, machinery and supplies
TO the Alaska oil fields aroused consid
cradle interest in this new prospective
industry. Like all other similar ven
lures however, the oil industry in Alas
ka is at present largely speculative.
The same is also very true in regard to
most of the medicines offered to cure
stomach, liver and kidney ills. They
spring up from time to time, make
wonderful claims, but because of lack
of merit are soon forgotten. Not so,
however, with the famous Hostetter's
Stomach Rtters. 1t has been before
the public continuously for fifty years,
and if it was not a safe and reliable
medicine could not have stood the Sc.
we're test of half century. For spring
fever, general debility, indigestion, dys.
pepsia, constipation, biliousness, la
grippe or malaria, it is unequalled.
Give it a trial.

CONSUMPTION.
CAN 1T BE CURED?
Specialists Differ, Some Opinions From
Patients Here Published Are Interest
ing, and of Value to Others.

Whether real consumption can be
cured, or not, is an open question, or
TO guarantee that any one medicine
will positively cure consumption would
be absurd, but we know there is some
thing about the effect of Ninol when
taken by persons who either have, or
| think they have consumption, or serious
| lung troubles, that is decidedly bene-
| fetal.
While we do not guarantee that Yinol
will always cure consumption, we pub
| lish herewith extracts from some of the
letters received on this subject, which
prove that while we may be conserva-
tive in our claims, Yinol has certainly
cured these people, and as the letters
are guaranteed to be genuine and from
reliable persons we must accept the
statements as absolutely true:
Mrs. J. G. Brown of Anderson, Ind,
writes: "Our daughter Mary was in
consumption, and given up to die by
our family physician. She was very
weak and emaciated, but Vinol restored
her to health in marvellous manner,
and she is as well as ever she was.
Words cannot express our gratitude for
this valuable cod liver oil preparation. !"
Mrs. \. B. Jenner of Lakewood, n.
Y, writes Il was in consumption, and
no one thought | could live. weighed
less than 100 pounds, and my normal
weight is rs pounds Vinol cured me,
and it seems almost miracle"
The Rev. Mr.. Crosse of St. Paul S
Church, ST. Joseph, Mo-, writes: "A
young man in my congregation had
hemorrhages of the lungs which weak
ened him so that he could not walk a
block. | recommended Ninol he has
taken four bottles, and feels like new
man he eats well, sleeps well, and IS
getting strong"
Joseph Denis of Winslow, Me, writes:
MY son was given up by two doctors
to die with consumption. He was
human skeleton, and could not raise
himself in bed. Ninol has cured him
so that he is healthy, fat, and is as well
as any of his playfellows. a"
We have lots Of such letters, and they
all contain just such strong, authentic
statements, and why should they not be
true If old.fashioned cod liver oil had
any virtue-and we know IL had in the
treatment Of throat and lung troubles -
Vinol, Of course, is of far greater value;
for it not only contains all the medicinal
curative elements of cod liver oil, but
it is entirely free from the oil or grease
which Invariably disagrees with the di-
gestive organs and prevents the good
that might come from the cod liver oil
medicine.
We can only say that any one who is
DESTROYS Of giving Vinol trial for any
kind of lung troubles may do so at our
risk we will pay for all the Vinol they
take which does them no good. This
shows that we have great faith in what
Vlnol can accomplish. Sold at Rein
hart's Pharmacy.

A shocking tragedy was enacted
FIVE miles south Of Winchester last
Saturday, when Joseph Il. Copen-
haver, one of the most prominent men
of Clarke county, shot down AMI
instantly killed his wife and then tor
FIVE hours defed arrest. The murder
was the outcome of a protracted
drunken spree. Copenhavsr had
been drinking heavily for several
weeks past, and Saturday morning he
was in a surly mood. He cursed his
wife for not having breakfast ready
and when she told him it was already
on the table he went into the dining
room and ate. Mrs. COpenhaver went
to the back yard and her husband
started after her carrying revolver
His sister, Miss Mary Copenhaver, en-
deavored to prevent him from follow
ing his wife, but he burst the door
open and stepping to the porch fired
at his wife, who was standing about
twenty feet away. The bullet entered
the woman's back and penetrated the
left lung. Mrs Copenhaver fell for
ward and died in few minutes. The
frenzled man, realizing his deed,
caught his wife in his arms and called
her by endearing names, vainly re-
GREETING his deed.
The only eye-witnesses Of the ira
gedy were the sister and Thomas Jen-
kins, Jr., hired man, the latter fee
ing when the fatal shot was fired.
Miss Copeuhaver carried the body Of
her sister-in-law into the house and
the hired man aroused the neighbors.
After the shooting the murderer arm
ed himself with a revolver and re-
peating rifle and barricaded himself
in a room adjoining that in which his
wife's dead body lay. For FIVE hours
he kept at bay a crowd of men who
had gathered. Finally he fell asleep,
and was then overpowered, with the
weapon still in his hands, by Sheriff
Smallwood, of Berryville, and Ser
geant Taylor, of Winchester He
was placed in Jail at Berryville.

Henry Pifer Richard, venerable
resident of Frederick county, Va,
died last week, aged sc years. He
was the father of Rev. DR.. James W.
Richard, professor in the Lutheran
Theological Seminary, Gettysburg,
Pa, and Rev. Asa Richard, pastor of
the Lutheran church at Lovettsville,
Va. Mr.. Richard was man of large
build and possessed corresponding
strength and faculty of endurance,
which was demonstrated in a fierce
struggle in 1859 with large bear
that bad descended from the noun
tains into his front yard. After a
great fight Mr.. Richard dispatched
the enraged animal. This great
strength did not begin to wane until
a few years since.
