an abnormal increase by reason of
the payment of additional taxes by

land Stores.

Cleveland, o., July 13.-Seven
hundred guardsmen from Eastern
States passing through Cleveland
Ser the Nickel Plate railroad left
iue train this afternoon when 1t
stopped at the Broadway-Eas Ninth
street depot and proceeded to raid
nearby stores and commission
houses, talking food and merchan-
disc, and destroying what they did
no tcarry away.
Riot calls were turned in and
squads of patrolmen were sent to
the scene in police emergency pa
trolls.
The soldiers were driven back to
the train By a squad of twenty-armed
men ordered out by Maj. T. J. Moy-
nahan, commanding the train. Some
of the soldiers said they had not
eaten in thirty-six hours. The
troop belonged to the Sixty-ninth,
Seventh, Fourteenth, Twelfth and
Twenty-third New York Infantry
and the First New York Artillery.
Not drop of blood was spilled
in the invasion of Cleveland, but
the soldiers took prisoner about 200
watermelons, several hams, twenty
packages of chewing tobacco, box
of stogies, a keg of ale and other
booty.
1t all happened in one hour-the
hour that Maj. Moynahan granted
as leave of absence. They piled out
of seventeen cars that halted at the
Nickel Plate depot, on Broadway,
this afternoon. After the hour.
headed back into the cars by armed
guards, they left Cleveland for Mex
leo, victorious over Cleveland police
and tradesmen.
The soldiers hadn't had anything
to eat for thirty-six hours, according
to stories some of them told Morris
Goldheimer, manager of the Cleve-
land Produce Company. Having
grappled with the man leading the
charge on his stack of watermelons
and seeing thirty-five melons captur-
ed in spite of his resistance, he said
he turned the other cheek and gave
them four baskets of bananas, canta-
loupes and tomatoes.

WOMAN'S DREAM

She Knows Why Multi. Million.
aires Offer to Divide
Fortunes.

To be a sufferer from nervous
dyspepsia for ten years, and to bear
all the tortures, mental and physi-
cal, that this all too common all
ment brings, and then to find relief
almost over night, is like having
a happy dream come true.

known and highly successful real
estate dealer in the Kentucky city,
recently told of the long hoped for
change in her life.
For ten years. explained Mrs.
Hunter, 81 have suffered from rer-
vous dyspepsia. When I read of
the offers of multi-millionaires to
divide their fortunes if they might
be cured of this terribly distressful
malady, | felt that in this way they
most eloquently told of their suffer-
ings, and | felt, too, that | would
never be cured, because 1 had no
millions to offer.
81 used all manner of remedies
without avail. Even the strictest
dieting did not help me materially.
Food in any form was absolutely re-
pellant at most times. But worst
of all, of course, was the constant
nerve strain had all of the symp-
toms that dyspepsia causes-head-
aches, backaches, and pains in the
kidney regions, ~ nausea = dizziness,

thoroughly nervous condition. "-
