coLoREp SOLDIERS CLAIM.
Granted Leave Of Absence by Special
Act of Congress.

Isaiah Mitchell, an aged colored
man. appeared at the land office the
other day to begin his final proof on a
soldiers homestead which he had
taken up on March %. 1898. But he
encountered considerable difficulty,
as. under the law. had there been no
extraordinary features in his case. the
time Tor proving up had long since
expired. causing the cancellation OF
his entry. He approached Hugh
Taylor the new receiver in the office,
but the latter could find no record
that would save him his land. Mr..
Mitchell explained that Congress had
passed law especially covering his
case. which was SO improbable
claim that the receiver thought the
old man must be wandering in his
mind. During the discussion Charles
NJ. Krueger. who has been clerk In
the Office for many years, came in and
set the matter straight Congress
had passed law giving the old man
seven years from March 3, 1899. in
which to perfect his title. This case
is believed to be the only one in ex-
istence, and came about in very pc
culiar manner, and as the result OF a
joking remark.
Mr.. Mitchell filed on the southwest
quarter of section rs. township 2,
north of range GA west on March %,
1898. His was a soldiers homestead,
numbered 16440, as Mitchell had been
corporal in company G. One Hun
dred and Fiftieth Colored Volunteers.
After four or five years residence on
his homestead. he applied to the Den
yer land office. during the term OF
Register McBeth. asking for leave
nj oil Tho given Inv the
old man were not those accepted by
the government as legal. SO his appli'
cation was refused.
Being determined to get his leave
he pestered the officers for weeks,
with ne avail. Finally. as joke. Mr.
Kreuger told him the only chance was
to get a law passed through Con
gress to give him the permission. Ac
cordingly Mitchell had a bill drawn up
and in due time it was passed and be
came a law.-Denver Republican.

NAMES BEST DOCTOR
MIR, BAYssoN PUBLISHES RESULTS
OF VALUABLE EXPERIENCE.
A Former Pronounced Dyspcptic He Now
Isejoices in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries of Indigestion.

Former pronounced NV w"
Kejoices in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries of Indigestion.
Thousands of sufferers know that the
reason why they are irritable aud de-
pressed and nervous and sleepless is be-
cause their food does not digest, but how
to get rid of the difficulty is the pnzzling
question.
Good digestion calls for strong diges-
tive organs, and strength comes from
supply of good rich blood. For this
reason Mr.. Baysson took DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for the cure of indigestion.
"They have been my best doctor, " he
saws. ~ was suffering from dyspepsia.
The pains in my stomach after meals
were almost unbearable. Ny sleep was
very irregular and my complexion was
sallow. As the result of using eight
boxes of DIR. Williams Pink Pills. about
the merits of which l learned from
friends in France, / have escaped all
these troubles, and am able ngain to take
pleasure i'll eating"
A very simple story, but If it had not
been for DR.. Williams Pink Pills it
might have been tragic one. When dis
comfort begins with eating, fills up the
intervals between meals with pain, and
prevents sleep at night. there certainly
cannot be much pleasure in living. A
final general breaking down must be
merely question of time.
Mr.. Joseph Baysson is n native OF
Aix-le Bains, France, but now resides
Mt No. 2439 Larliin street, san Francisco,
Cal. He is one of a great number who
cal testify to the remarkable efficacy OF
DIR. Williams Pink Pills in the treatment
of obstinate disorders of the stomach.
If you would get rid of nausea. pain or
burning in the stomach, vertigo, ner-
vousness, insomnia, or any of the other
miseries of n dyspeptic, get rid of the
weakness of the digestive organs by the
use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills. They
are sold by druggists everywhere.
Proper diet is, of course, a great aid in
forwarding recovery once begun, and Il
, little book, "What to Eat and How to
Z Eat" may be obtained by any one who
makes request for it by writing to the
DR.. Williams Medical Co, Schenectady,
NY. This valuable diet book contains
an important chapter on the simplest
means for the cure of constipation.

Cohoes. N. Y, Member of Assembly
from the Fourth district, Albany
county, N. Y, writes as follows:
'Peruna has my hearty Endorsement
as restorative tonic of superior IN alt.
At times when | have been completely
broken down from excess of work, so
that my faculties seemed actually at a
standstill, Peruna has acted as a heal
ing restorer. starting the machinery of
mind and body afresh with new life
hnd energy.
II recommend it to a man tired in
mind and body as tonic superior to
anything ! know of and well worthy
serious consideration" ~. Tighe.
Excess of work so common in our
country causes impaired nerves, leading
to catarrh and catarrhal nervousness
disease that is responsible for half of
all nervous troubles.
Peruna cures this trouble because it
cures catarrh wherever located.
If you do not derive prompt and salts

sible at this time to indicate when
the formal replies from Russia and
Japan to the Presidents Identical
notes will be given TO the public. IL
is possible it may be to-day and 1t
may not be for several days. the
situation is quite satisfactory to the
president. however, and assurance is
given that the Withholding of the
notes is not due to any hitch in the
negotiations.
Before the responses of the Russian
and japanese governments are pub
lished here they will be transmitted
formally by the Pre..de nt-the Japa-
nese note to the St. Petersburg gov
ernment and the Russian note to
Toxic. Up to this time they have not
been thus forwarded. The transmits
sion of the notes will conclude the
preliminary negotiations for peace in
itiated by the president, and practi-
cally will conclude this government S
work in these negotiations.
Officially informed that the re-
sponse to the presidents appeal is
favorable. it will remain for the Rus
sian and japanese governments to eff
feet an arrangement for temporary
armistice pending direct discussion
of terms for permanent peace.
Information received here. both in
governmental and diplomatic quar-
ters, indicates that Japan will suggest
where the first meeting of the repre-
sentatives of the belligerent powers
will take place and that Russia Will
accede to that suggestion.
At the preliminary meeting it is the
understanding that Japan will indi-
cate the terms on which the emperor
would be willing to conclude perma-
nent peace. The terms then Will be
transmitted directly to the Russian
government, the question of their ac-
ceptance or rejection then lying with

At the conference of the managers
of the New York Central Lines. held
in New York June 9Th. all lines be-
ing represented by their General
Managers and Passenger officials. 1t
was decided, beginning with the regu-
lar summer change, Sunday. June
18th, to quicken the speed of the
Twentieth Century Limited" so as
to make the time between New York
and Chicago eighteen hours instead of
twenty hours. the New York Central
Lines having made the twenty hour
time during the past three years. and
having also made the run between
New York and Chicago in twenty
hours with their Exposition Flyer"
for the one hundred and eighty days
Of the Columbian Exposition in Chi
Ohgo in 1893. twelve years ago.
The New York Central Lines make
the point that the New York Central
has had in service the Empire State
Express" which has been the fastest
train in the world for its distance.
44O miles for fourteen years, having
held the worlds record for that time.
and for three years and $50 days hav-
ing held the worlds record for d
thousand mile train in twenty hours.
The proposed schedule of eighteen
hours is simply the extension of the
time of the Empire State Express"
through from Buffalo to Chicago, the
time having been made for fourteen
years between New York and Buffalo.
On this new schedule. the train will
leave Chicago at 2:30 p. m. arriving
Grand Central Station. New York.
at $3.50 next morning, and returning,
will leave New York $3.50 p. m. reach
ing Chicago $50 a. m. following day.
At the same time, the Lake Shore
Limited" will be quickened up an
hour, and will make the time froh
Chicago to New York in % hours in
stead of "a, leaving Chicago $50 p.
m, by the Lake Shore and arriving
New York $50 p. m, by the New
York Cent. al.
The Southwestern Limited" train,

tral station at l p. m. will, beginning
