 J. J. Kennedy is one of the best known electrical experts in the United States, and his being a member of the party which is now in the city is signi flcant in view of the improvements which, it is rumored. the Traction Company Is about to make.
 Judge Horsley said~last night that the business of the party in Mont gomery was strictly private, and that nothing of a public nature would be done on this trip to the city.

 Dr. John Fyfe, of Saugatuck, Conn, Editor of the Department of Therapeu- tics in THE ECLECTIC REVIEW says of Unicorn root (Hel0ntns Dsoico) one of the chief ingredients of Dr. Perce's Fa- vorite Prescription: VA remedy which invariably acts as a uterine invigorator and always favors a condition which makes for normal activity of the entire reproductive system, cannot fail to be of great usefulness and of the utmost importance to the general practitioner of medicine."
 UHelonias more fully answers the above purposes than any other drug .sctth sohicH I am GcQgatHted. In the treatment of diseases peculiar to women it is seldom that a case is seen which does not present some indication for this remedial agent"
 ~The following are among the lead ing indications for Helonias: Pain or aching in the back, with leucorrhea; atomic (weak) conditions of the repro ductive organs of women, mental de- pression and irritability, associated with chronic diseases of the reproductive organs of women, constant sensation of heat in the region of the kidneys: menorrhagia, (vflooding") due tossa weakened condition of the reproductive system; amenorrhea, arising from or accompanying an abnormal condition of the digestive organs and an anemic (thin blood) habit; dragging sensation in the extreme lower part of the ab- domen."
 If more or less of the above symptoms are present, no invalid woman can do better than take Dr. Pierce's Fayorite Prescription, which is rich in all the medical properties of Unicorn root, or Helonias.

Not only does the wrapper of every bottle of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the famous medicine for weak stomach, torpid liver or bilious ness and all catarrhal diseases wherever located, have printed upon it, i's plaim English, a full and complete list of all the ingredients composing it, but 8 small book has been compiled from numerous standard medical works, of all the different schools of practice, containing very numerous extracts from the writings of leading practitioners of medicine, endorsing sn the strongest possible terms, each and every ingredi- enk contained in Dr. Pierce's medi- ciries. One of these little books wifi be mailed free to any one sending address on postal card or by letter, to Dr. R.V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y., and requesting the same. From this booklet it will be learned that Dr. Pierce's medicines con tain no alcohol, narcotics, mineral agents or other poisonous or injurious agents and that they are made from native, medicinal roots of great value; also that some of the most valuable in- gradients contained in Dr. Pierce's Fa- vorite Prescription for weak, nervous, over-worked, wrun-down," nervous and facilitated women, were employed, long years ago by the Indians for similar ailments affecting their squaws. In fact, one of the most valuable medic inal plants entering into the compost tion of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip- tion was known to the Indians as wSquaw-Weed." Our knowledge of the uses of not few of our most valuable native, medicinal plants was gained from the Indians.

ASBESTOS COMPANY
CHANGES OFFICER
Richmond Stockholders Interested
in Action Taken in
Wyoming.

(From Our Regular COrrespondent)
z WASHINGTON, d. c., May 22-The
stockholders OF the Wyoming Asbestos
Mining and Manufacturing Company,
a considerable number Of whom reside
in Richmond, although the company's
home Office is really in this city, made
a complete change In officers at a meet
ing held in Casper. Wyo., some days
ago. IT was stated at the offices OF
the company here to-day that the fol-
loving had been chosen: c. K Buck
nun, president; w. S. Kimball first
vice-president; c. G. 2. Webell, second
vice-prcsidcnt; A. ]. Cunningham,
treasurer; John B. Barnes, Jr secre-
tary, and r. c. Ferguson, superinten-
dent of the mines.
Practically all the foregoing are
Wyoming men, they having purchased
recently considerable portion of the
stock, after having made careful In
spcctIon of the property. Mr.. Buck
mum, the president, is a member of
the State Legislature. and one Of the
most extensive cattle-raisers in the
State. The treasurer, Mr.. Cunningham.
Is banker of Casper. and very
wealthy man. Others OF the officers
are men OF wealth and character, iden-
titled with the business interests of
Casper and Wyoming. One of them is
at the head of a mercantile establish
ment of Casper which does an annual
business of over 100000.
Mr.. j. L. Waring, of this city. former
president of the company, said to-day
that he thought the action of the board
in changing officers and moving the
offices Of the company to Wyoming
was emincntly wise. THE identifca-
ton of local men with a local enter
prise Is always helpful" he said. "espe-
cially SO IT. as In this case, the men
are of such high standing. The mines
will be developed as rapidly as pos
sible, contracts for hundreds of tons
of asbestos having been made already.
You needn't mind booming the mines
as the board has decided not to sell
another share of stock"
For the benefit OF stockholders at
a distance, 1t may be stated that the
directors and officers of the company
believe they have in this mine boz
nanZa richer than a gold mine.
