IS PRESCOTr WOMAN 10 RELIEVE VEAL iii?

left Los Angeles and gone to Phoenix, and why she had returned here to rc sumc her position, as it K understood shc will, as waitress at the Burke Hotel, Mrs Blake was -committal.
 Her son. George, employed at the Burke Hotel as night bell boy, stated to a reporter that his mother had said that the share of the estate which she and her husband would receive would bc s3,000, not &3.,0OO, 900, and that the estate was $6,O00, ,OO0, instead of $6O, 100000
 Mir. Blake's ancestors left England many years ago. leaving behind con siderable property, which has since been held in chanccry, doubling in value many times over. He has always been of the opinion that some day tn, property would be turned over to the Blake heirs. and that he would com, in for n large sum.
 He had often discussed his dream wealth. and, 1t is said. the telegraph operators. who rode back and forth on his car in Los Angeles, decided tc play him a practical joke. by sending him the above bogus telegram.
 Mrs. Blake, however, is firm in he, assertion that the original telegram which her husband received, is moi bogus, but genuine, and that they have really como into a portion of the estate. but just how much. whether s3,OOO. .OOO as she stated, or t3,0OO. as her son states. still remains shroudcd in mys tery.
 It is x fact. however, that Mrs Blake has returned to Prescott, and that sbc is to resume her position as waitress in the Burke Hotel dining rooms, which leads to the supposition that perhaps the latter sum. if th, cablegram was not hoax, i- ncarc, the correct figure.

 With her dream of great wealth yudoly shattered, but pcrsisting in her statement that herself and husband ~ill soon receive a portion of an estate n Dublin. Mrs. ]. n. Blake, until ten days ago waitress in the Burke Hotel, rcturncd to this city last evening from Los Angeles, called there by letter from her hsubaud, which announced tAat he had received n cabIcgram from London, telling him that bc was one of twenty heirs to s6O.000.000 estate.
 Tho cablcgram. which, according to shc press of Los Angeles, was cruel hoax, pcrpctrated upon Blake, who was . street car conductor in that city, by some telegraph operators who had hoard him discussing his dream of flu ;ure wealth, read as follows:
 "London. England, October 3i. "J. II. Blake. Los Angeles:
 "Our estate has been settled in Duh. sn. There are 1000. .O0O to be left ,e twenty heirs. Inside of eight months se will have the proceeds.
 "(Signed
 "SIR EDWARD BLAKE"
 Upon receipt of this telegram Mir. Hlakc at once wrote his wife to come ,o Los Angeles, that hc would soon be sealthy. and that she would not have O work any longer In response to she letter she made all haste to that Ity, leaving horc about ten days ago.
 Upon arriving there, it is claimed by the Los Angeles papers, Mrs. Blake made the discovery that the telegram wss bogus, and that her husbands wis. ions of wealth were but myth. In the meantime, Mir. Blake had resigned his position as street ear conductor, and, in company with his wife, return. ej to Prescott last evening. hc. how. aver, proceeding. so Mrs. Blake states, to Phoenix.
 When seen by \ representative of the Journal Miner. at her apartments in the Head Hotel. last evening. Mrs. Blake stated that she did not care to discuss the affair, as her husband had requested that she remain silent upon the question of his inherited wealth.
 When it was pointed out to her by the newspaper man that the Los An. gelcs papers claimed that the cable. gram was hoax, and pressed for a !er!dca'lcn or dcnial of this. Mrs. Blake snidi
 "The only thing wrong about tho story is that the Los Angeles Examiner stated that the message was bogus. This IS not true. The cablegram my hsuband received was correct. but to throw the reporters off we gave them a fake cablcgram, which va. the one printed" "
 "Then it Is true, Mrs. Blake, that your husband has come into 43,O0O,' 0O0f" she was asked.
 "Wcll. I'd rather not discuss that, but we have since received messages From London of which the papers know nothing
 "And do these substantiste MY. Blake g claims'
 Thus pressed for definite answeY, Mrs. Blake stated that her husband was certainly one of the heirs, and in. timatcd thnt his portion would be $3, 0OO,OoO.
 She said that she expected the money would be forthcoming within the speci. fled time, eight months.

II he was followed and arrested for tne violation. Dowell says he is but twen- ty-four years old. and desires to start life over and that he has a good job at Winslow if he can be released from his latest perpleXing situation. He respectfully asks the governor there fore to refrain from signing extradi- ton papers.
 There can be no action until the pa pers arrive but it is altogether likely that Acting Governor Nichols will hon or the requisition when it comes. if it be in the regular form. The case seems to be one deserving of consider ation, if Dowell's story be true. but the governors office holds that the matter is one that cannot be acted upon here. It would appear discour- teous to the governor of California. and if Dowell is entitled to release. clemency or any other help in his ex- tremity 1t should come through the of flee of Governor Pardee. Knowingly or otherwise. Dowell has violated his parole, and if paroles are to be grant ed. they must be respected. Dowell should have informed the California authorities and secured their permis- sion to come to Arizona. Failing to do this he must make his accounting to them and should appeal to their elem enCy.

A lady tells of a bad case of coffee poisoning and tells it in a way so sim pie and aightforward that literar;. skill could not improve it.
 ''I had neuralgia headaches for F years" she says. "and have suffered untold agony. When I first began to have them I weighed 14O pounds, but they brought me down to no. I went to many doctors and they gave me only temporary relief So I suffered on, till one day in 1904, a woman doctor told me to drink Postum Food Coffee. She said I looked like was coffee poi soned.
 50 I began to drink Postum and I gained 15 pounds in the first few so fast as at first. My headaches be- POstum about two weeks-lOng enough I expect to get the coffee poi son out of my system.
 Now that a few months have pass ed since l began to use Postum Food Coffee, can gladly say that I never know what a neuralgia headache is like any more and it was nothing but Postum that cured me.

Eminent Doctors Praise it's ingredients.

We refer to that boon to weak, nervous, suffering women known as Dr. Pierce's FavOrite Prescription.
 Dr. John Fyfe one of the Editorial Staff Of TIE ECLECTIC MEDICAL REVIEW says of Unicorn root ldeJODiGS DjOicO which is one of the chief ingredients of the Fa- vorite Prescription
 "A remedy which invariably acts as utter inc invigoratOr makes for normal ac- tivity of the entire reproductive system 70 He continues % in HelOniaS we have a Tnedica- ment which more fully answers the above purposes LitGIt d1B other drug tCith lChich am acquainted. In the treatment of diseases ua- cullar to women 1t Is seldom that case is seen when dots not present some lndlcatlon for this remedial agent" Dr. Fyfe further says: The following are among the leading lndicatlonS Tor HelOnlaS (UDlcOrn rOOD Pain or aching in the back, with leuCOrrhPa; atomic tweaD conditions of the reproductive organs Of women, mental depression and ir- ritability. associated with chronic diseases of the reproductive organs of women, constant sensation of heat in the region of the kid neyS; menOrrhagia (hOOding). duo to a weak ened condition of the reproductive system: amenorrhOea Suppressed or absent monthly abnormal condition of the digestive organs and an8mic tthin blOod) habit; dragging abdomen"
 If more or less of the above symptoms are present, no invalid woman can do better than take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, one of the leading ingredI- entS of which is Unicorn root, or HeloniaS, and the medical properties of which it most faithfully represents.
 Of Golden Seal root. another prominent Ingredient of "FavOrite Prescription" Prof. Finley EllingwOod, NJ D., of Ben nett Medical College, Chicago, says:
 vIt is an important remedy in disorders of the womb. In all catarrhal conditions and general enfeeblement. it is useful"
 Prof. John NJ. Scudder. M. D., late of Cincinnati, says of Golden Seal root:
 "In relation to it's general effects on the system. there is no medicine tn use about IUItch there IS such general IHlGnimity Of opinion It is universally regarded as the tonic useful in all debilitated states"
 Prof. BarthOlow. NJ. D., of Jefferson Medical College, says of Golden Seal:
 vValuable in uterine hemOrrhage. menor- rhagia (tiOOding1 and COngestive dySmenOr- rhma (painful menstTuationl"
 Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription faith fully represents all the above named in gradients and cures the diseases for which they are recommended.
