Ulcer Of the
Stomach.
Insidicus Nature Of tho Disease-How
to Recognize and Cure It.

Ulcer OF the stomach may exist for
years without very marked symptoms,
excepting those caused by indigestion.

the action of the gastric juices. but
when weakened, the membrane is bad
ly nOurished and the digestive fluids
act upon it as well as upon the food.
keeping up until perforation of the
stomach occurs. In advanced cases of
ulcer of the stomach there is much dis
comfort after eating, with a constant
gnawing sensation between meals,

shoulder blade.

STATEMENT sv MAJOR DooLEY
nesard'ns Injury to Rifle by Bullet
Stuck in Barrel.

MAJOR John ]. Dooley of Portland. as
sistant inspector general of rife practice
VINO has charge of the indoor shooting
in the National Guard of the State, was
IN the City Thursday evening, and in con-
versation with a representative of the
journal corrected a statement which ap.
peared IN the State House column of the
Journal on Tuesday morning. The item
reierred TO was one in which it was stat
ed that n member of one of the Portland
companies damaged a regulation rife in
Il somewhat unusual manner by shooting
1ulI service charge through the gun
wfile bullet from a gallery cartridge
was wedged in the gun barrel.
Major Dooley said that when gallery
practice was first taken up by the Ma
tion1l Guard the men used ammunition
issued by the United States government
That supplied by the government con-
sisted of a round ball, somewhat similar
in appearance to large shot. and the
shells were loaded with black powder, the
charge Of which at times was insufficient
to send this bullet through the rifle.
The company officers throughout the
State found this supply rather faulty
and several refused to use the shells in
their companies. deeming them inaccu-
rate. 1t was stated by Major DoOley that
it was very frequently the case for the
bullets. after the shell had been discharg-
ed, to roll out of the barrel and fall to
the ground.
General Farnham, realizing the value of
the indoor practice in the Guard, ordered
the shells loaded by an expert in Port
land, and instead Of the round bullet a
conical bullet is now used. weighing 81
grains, and smokeless powder is used and
a smokeless primer. Since this load has
been adopted no fault has been found by
any members of the Guard, as it is al
most impossible for shot fired thus to
fall short Of the target. SO strong Is
this charge that it requires at least four
inches of plank to stop the bullet fired.
Believing that General Davis had been
misinformed in regard to the incident
mentioned in Tuesdays Journal. the eX-
PLANTATION given by Major Dooley is that
the man fired the rifle. and not hearing
the bullet strike supposed that it reached
the target and did not hit the paper af-
fixed there. The marksman inserted an
other gallery charge and fired again. IL"
did not use full service charge, as Gen.
Davis understood. During all gallery
practice in the National Guard none of
the service shells are allowed on the gall
lery range, in order to prevent accidents
of any kind that might occur through
their use.

The only occupant of the police sta
ton Wednesday night was one lodger.
not Of the usual class who seek the
comforts of the station. but a young
man who. according to his story. was
the victim OF misplaced confidence.
When asked by the city marshal how
he happened to seek 4 lodging at the
station. he replied that he had missed
the last car for Winthrop Wednesday
night. and had given an acquaintance
at the North end s. to get him Il lodg-
ing for the night. The man who took
the money failed to appear again. and
| the Winthrop young man, being out of
funds, was obliged to seek the station.
He retained possession of his car
| tickets, however. and was thus enabled
to get home without taking the foot
path.

Mr. Sully again appears as priest,
and those who have seen him in "rhe

that he does justice to the part.

A strong vein Of comedy runs through
the play and prevents the story from
becoming roo serious.
In Father Daily, Mr.. Sully has a role
that fits him to perfection: he las
plenty of comedy of the characteristic

tions Civ. better opportunities than has
been afforded him in any Of his

In one Of the stores on Cony street
Thursday, Il dark red mouse was
caught in an ordinary steel trap that
has been set in the basement for some
nights past. The Journal has printed,
during its long existence, tales of
white. brown, black. pink and green
mice and rats. but a red one is a new
one. The thoroughly alive victim of
the trap was shown to 4 Journal re-

very pronounced red. and it is reason

Revival Meetings at Baptist Church.

Another full house greeted the
preacher last night. His subject was
Naamar, the leader of the hosts of
the King Of Syria. He was rich. pow
crful and respected. seeming to lack
nothing to fill to the full the cup of
happiness. But he was a leper. He
leprOsy of sin is in our nature. Naamar
desired cleansing. but he wanted to be-
cleansed in his own way. When he
came in Christ's way, he was thor
oughly cleansed. So must it he with
the sinner. Gods way is the best and
in fact the only way. A tender and
impassiOned appeal was made. ami
in the first and after meeting several
rose for prayers.
In the afternoon two persons ex-
pressed desire to lead Il Christian
life.
Miss Grace Maddox played the piano,
and DR.. Roberts led the singing.
Meetings as usual this afternoon and

A young professional man who
stands exceptionally we'll in all circles
about the city, has one peculiarity
which has made him a man to be
watched on all occasions. The young
man in question frequents one of the
large public buildings in the city every
day during certain seasons Of the year.
following the pursuit of his profession.
and in every room and corridor of this
building he is known as 'the pencil
fiend.' Our young friend has in
dulged great penchant for collecting
lead pencils and en- every occasion he
will pick up 4 pencil. wherever it may
be, and pocket it. The young man GER
tainly does not need these articles that
he collects so assiduOusly. but never
theless he makes a haul of from 10 to
25 Of them a day, and his friends are
very careful now when they see him
about. that they have their pencils
snugly deposited in inside vest pockets.
And the funniest part OF the whole
thing is that the young man is SUBJ
timely unconscious OF his failing.

because so many coasting accidents
have occurred in Augusta since the
first of the year. many cautious and
thoughtful parents have instructed
their children not to slide on certain
OF the more dangerous hills that have
been much in vogue with the young
people. Among the streets that have
been placed on the prohibited list are
winthrop. Court and Child streets on
the West side, and School. Cony. and
the upper end of Bangor streets across
the river. All of these streets are
sharply inclined and there are danger
Gus turns and crossings that make
sliding an extra hazardous undertake
ing at best. The children will do well
to confine their sliding TO other streets
more remote from the heavy traffic
centers. and with due caution, similar
accidents like those that have oc-
CURED on Mill and Child street will be
prevented.
