Tough Characters Invade Eastport

brought two men down from East
port few days ago, charged with
breaking into bonded cars and also
breaking into a residence at East
port. While there is little doubt
but what both of the men should
be in Jail on general principles yet
for lack of evidence Judge O'Cal-

one OF the toughs subject to depor-

line.
The residence broken into was
that of G. W. Wordle. They forced
their way in and turned the key in

who suffer from chronic
ailments find in them a
source of great relief from

soothing influence upon
the nerves strengthen
rather than weaken them.
For this reason they sell
