German Government Has Big
Task in Cleaning Out Ber-
lin Suburbs.
LICHTENBERG TROOPS KILLED

AnnihiIated by the spartaeans-
Order Calling Off Strike obeyed
Only In Part.

patch received through Copenhagen
and apparently somewhat belated says
the German government sent more
than 10000 troops into Berlin the END
Of last week, but that the work OF
driving the Spartacans from their
strongholds was proving severe task.
1t was believed, added the message
that the fighting would continue Tor
several days.
Berlin. March 70. - Government
troops are busy In driving Spartacan
bands from various sections of Ber-
lin and in preparing for n determined
effort against the Spartacan strong
bold of Lichtenberg, suburb east OF
tho city The Spartacans are reported
to have large depots of weapons ana
ammunition in Lichtenberg. Gcve"n-
nient troops sent to Lichtenbere Sun
day to protect the post office aL3 pr
lice station were annihilated by the
Spartacans.
All the soldiers and police officials
who were not killed during the fight
ing for the post Office and police sta
tion or who did not escape from the
buildings were murdered by the Spar
tacans. Many were tortured and killed
Ia the streets. At least one woman
was among the victims OF the Sparta
cans The police archives in Lichten-
berg were burned and $4,000 marks
were stolen from the post office.
Armed civilians stopped a Red Cross
ambulance and killed and wounded
all the persons in 1t. Another band of
Spartacans dubbed two soldiers to
death with the butts Of their guns
and killed householder who attempt
ed 10 interfere.
The government military command
ers expect that 1t will take at least
two days of steady fighting TO break
the Spartacan resistance In the east
ern part of of Berlin and to capture
Lichtenberg and the suburbs Of ko-
renick, Weissensee and Johannesburg,
all on the eastern outskirts of Berlin.
The government troops are taking no
prisoners.
The order calling off the general
strike was obeyed only in part.
The inhabitants of eastern and
northeastern Berlin are suffering from
hunger, because often they have been
unable to leave their homes to buy
provisions and also because the provi-
sion shops In their districts have been
plundered by insurgents.

Many Diseases
BIZ VALENTINE MOTT. N. o.


It is almost impossible to give list OF
the endless diseases that follow Indigestion.
Perhaps whole column in this news "a
per would be required to print them all.
You eat TO keep alive-to supply blood and
flesh and bone and muscle and brain. Il
is easy to see that if your food is not d.
gested and taken up by the delicate or
gans and distributed where it is needed. a
disease of some sort is sure to come. Dys-
pepsla is common symptom, and so are
liver complaint, loss of flesh, nervousness.
bad memory, dizziness, sleeplessness, no
appetite. Many times, when neglected. in
digestion results in coughs, throat diseases.
eatarrh, bronchitis and even more danger
GUS things. And all these disorders arise
because the food is not properly digested
in the stomach. 1t is plain even TO a
child that relief and cure are to be had
only by setting up a healthy condition in
the stomach. DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo. n.
T., many years ago combined number
OF vegetable growths into a temperance
remedy for Indigestion, and called Il
Golden Medical Discovery. 1t is probably
the most eticacious discovery ever made
IN medicine, for the list of people all over
the world who have had their countless ills
overcome by DR.. Pieree's Golden Medical
Discovery makes an amazing total of thou
sands.
L know of no advice better than this:
Begin home treatment today with this
good vegetable medicine. 1t will show
you better than can tell you what it will
do. When taking Golden Medical Dis
covery, you can rest assured Of one very
important thing-it contains neither alco-
hol nor opiates. There is nothing in it
but standard roots and herbs that possess
curative properties of high order. A
safe medicine is the only kind you can
afford to take.
