THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, MARCH 26, 1887, be _— students of the American college in Rome, ‘wearing surplices, were waiting for the arch- bishop., The cardinal, after kneeling, kissed the crucifix, then put on his beretta, and so covered, placed the incense in the thurible. He then again bared his head, took the aspersorium from the canon who had pre- sented the crucilix, and signed himself with the sign of the cross. Then, replacing the beretta, he asperged the people present with holy water, after which he azain removed his beretta and was thrice incensod by the canon, the choir meanwhile singing the antiphon “Ecce SAlcerdos Magnus.” At the altar the blessed sacrament was administered. All knelt for ashort time in prayer. The proces- sion next went to the high altar. In theapse a throne, with white, black and crimson conopy had been placed. The cardinal seated himselt on the throne, the bishop and riests in attendance being seated about him, 'he prothonotar upon read in L 1l the church of Santa Marie in_Trastevere to Cardinal Gibbons as his titular cburch, An address from the canons to the cardinal was read in Latin by Canon Krancesco Aurduini, It was of great length, To this Cardinal Gibbons, remaining seated and wearing his beretta, replied in English, expressing his gratitude to the pope and reciting the history of the church to which he is assigned, the foundations of which were laid by Pope Calixtus in the vear 224. He then recited the early Catholic history in America, and d: “For myself, as a citizen of the United tates, and without uloslni my eyes to our shorteomings as a nation, 1 say with a deep sense of pride and gratitude that [ belong to 8 country where civil 'warnl‘uunt holds over us the degis of its protection without finterfering with us in the legitimate exercise of our sublime mission as ministers of the gospel of Christ. Our country has liberty without license and lmhm‘{ty without despotism. She rears no wall to exelude the stranger from coming among us. She has few frowning fortifica- tions to repel the invader, for she is at peace with all the world. She rests secure in the consciousness of her strength and her good will toward nll. Her harbors are open to ‘welcome the honest eml‘irln!‘ who comes to advance his temporal Interests and find peaceful home, But while we are acknowl- edged to have a free government, pertaps we do not receive the credit that belongs to_us for having also a strong government. Yes, our natlon is strong, and her strength lies, under the over-ruling guidance of prudence, in the mafesty and supremacy of the law; in the loyalty of her citizens, and in the affection of her people for her free institutions. There are indeed erave social problems now engag- ing the earnest attention of the citizens of the United States, but 1 have no doubt that with God’s bh’,sslnf these problems will be solved by the calm judgment and sound sense of the American” people without vio- ITn'(-f n,r‘revoluuon orany lngury to individual rights.! ;l‘hc cardinal’s voice was strong and ring- ing. Kach word he said was distinct heard, although he spoke under the dis: yantage of being seated behind an altar, His volce rose towards the conclusion of his address, which was pronounced mag- nificent, The church was largely occupied by Americans and _distinguish visitors to Rome during the investiture ceremonies. In addition to the Americans, French and Ttalians who packed the body of the church, & number of Roman men, women and chil- dren of the peasant class were present. A reosgunn followed and all present went for- ward, one after another, knelt before the cardinal, and kissed hig ring, Each spoke a few words which were kindly responded to by the cardinal.

[Copyrighted 1857 by James Gordon Bennett.] LoNDON, March 24.—|New York Herald Cable—Special to the BEe.]—The feature of next month’s magazine literature will§ un- doubtedly be an articlo inthe English Il- lustrated Mazazine by Miss Matilda Stoker, sister of Bram Stoker, on the love letters written to Richard Brinsley Sheridan by his first Rwifs, nee Linley. Mr. Comyns Carr, editor of the English Illustrated, has courteously given your correspondent advance proof sheets of this article, certain portions of which I cadle to you. It seems that when the fire broke out which aestroyed Dewey Lane theater in 1509 all the papers found In Snerldan’s private room were hur- riedly packed into barrels and carried away. Sowme of these were, in the confusion, thrust Into neighboring cellars, where they re- mained undisturbed for over sixty years. Lately, among the heterogeneous mass, has been discovered a series of most interesting letters addressed to Sheridan by his wife,the beautiful Eliza Linley and the ancestor of some of England’s titled and clever familtes. Here is an extract from ono of her earliest, ‘which has the flower of a love passage, after- ‘wards put into the “Rivals,” *“Though [ parted with you so lately, and though I expected to s0e you again so soon, yet [ must be plaguing you with my scrawl Oh, my doarest love, 1 am mever happy, but witen I am with yon, I cannot speak or think of anything else. I love you to distraction and would prefer you and beg- gary before any other man with a throne, My father came Into my room this morning and I had but juft time to stuff the letter be- hind the glass, It was well he did not take much notice of me.” A few months later she writes: “Oh my love, how vain are your doubts and suspicions, believe me. 1f I thought it possible for me to change my present senti- ments of you 1 should despise myself. Never shall you have the least cause to suspect my constancy or my love.” Nevertheless, a few months later still,come these passages: *“I have been sogrossly deceivad by youand by every onc that it has almost deprived me of my reason. But 1 have paid too deariy for my experience to put it In your power or any one’s to 1npose on me again, I1did not ex- pect you would attempt to vindicate your conduct. You cannot answer me.

There are now inseparable bars betwixt us, Do not let the mistaken notion of pity impose on you, You are deceived.” But, saying no, she in time consented and they were publicly married. The letters ‘written during her twenty years of married life were all of the tenderest kind. Hereis a specimen extract, dated some years after Tom was born. “DEAR THERY—Let me see you soon to- might, good natured and happy, tor upon my soul and life Llove you, dearest, better than my soul, and could be happler with you in some cottage under the Alps than with the whole world beside.” ‘The last letter. and a most potbetie one, which she ever wrote to any one, closed an Interesting paper which, in arrangement and style, serves to bring Miss Stoker to the first rank of the many brilliant English women ‘whose success In letters seewis to be challeng- ing that ot Englishwen. MANNING IN ENGLAND. The Ex-Secretary Feeling Remarka- bly Well After His Voyage, \Copyright 1557 by James Gordon Bennett.] Liverroor., March 25,—|New York Herald Cable—Special to the Bex.|--Mr, Danilel Manning. ex-secretary of the United States treasury,andMr, C. N, Jordan arrived here late last evening on the Arizona. They remained on board until this morning, when a special tender, with Consul C. i Russell and Mr. John B. Loveland, passenger agent of the Northwestern railway, on board brought them ashore. Mr. Loveland had provided a vate saloon earriage to take the party to roemouth, & well known sea resort of Hampshire, on the southern coast. There Mr Manning will take a quiet rest, according to his preyious plans. I found him looking wery well, notwithstanding the rough trip across the ocean. He said be bad de- .lzdlyl-mndml expected to be thor- Oughly restored amid new scones, More- over, I found him in the best of spirits, e remarked that there was not any founaation for the suggestions cabled here yesteraay that his health might prevent his return to New York, as arranged, to take charge of the new bank. Indeed, his looks, mouements, cheer- fulness and appetite seemed to me to fully eorroborate him in contradicting such sug- gestions, After his stay in Bournemouth, Mr. Manning will go to London tor mental and soelal relaxatio THE GRAND NATIONAL, Gamecock the Winner of the Great Stecplecanse Race. [Copyright 1587 by James Gordon Bennett.] M New York Herald Cabl 'he grand na- tional steeplechase race to-day was run in premature April weather — sunshine and shuwers. Again, as in the Lincoln handi- cap and in last year’s steeple chase, the event like the weather proved capricious as to fa- vorites, and this was another white day for the bookmakers, Toe old biblical text was realized In that the last place horse in the same extent in 134 became flrst in 187, and last year's winner was to-day unplaced. ‘The prophets also are again without honor. ‘The discreet Morning Post to-day refused to prophesy at all. A few supersti- tious sports, however, had agreed that a horse named Gawecock, Wwith Lightning for dam and Revolver tor sire, must win, and that March was a classic month for omens. 1 found that the Airtree course of four miles for the field had been altered, in that after what is called the farm house fence, there was no jump till the first of the two hurdies in the straight. This gave a finishing zallop of nearly four fur- longs—a prodigious advantaze to a jumper which is also a race horse. That also made good jockeyship essential. This qualifica- tion, with bold but prudent steeplechasing. Daniels, who rode the winning horse, (iamne- cock, owned by Mr. K. Jay, possessed. There was an immense attendance and umbrellas to wave but not to spread. Toilets were ata disadvantage, There wera two false starts, and on the third attempt the field got away, with Savo- yard, last year’s stumbler—in front, and tho prospective winner second, followed by last year’s winner Old Joe (then a favorite) next, and Johnny Longtail, who belied his name, last. Presently the winner took the lead, which he generally maintained. Theyr all had good luck at the first fence, but at the second one, Ballot Box and Bellona came to grief without, however, either horses or rid- ers belng injured. Spahi lost his chance by falling at the next obstacle, and those which kept their feet went on to Beecher's brook, then over Valentine’s brook and atong the canal side. The lot came on in close company to the hurdles in the straight to the next fence, where Lord Chumley’s Hunter fell at the water. Magpie and Spectrum landed hatfa length in front of Johnny Longtail and Roquefort, with Chancellor, Savoyard, Old Joe, Gamecock, Sinbad and Toogoud next and Frigate last. Chancellor took the lead on entering the country for the second time, Old Joe now being last. Thus they ran to Beecher's brook, where Magpie broke down. Sir George Chetwynd’s Spectrum fell two fences from home. Chancellor was followed by Savoyard, with Roquefort, Gamecock, ‘Toogood and Johnnie Longtail close up, and Chancery next to the bend for home. Here Chancellor was beaten and Savoyard was left in front, with Gamecock and Roquefort second and third respectively, Chancery and Toogood next. Two hurdles from home Savoyard arew clear and Roguefort passed Gamecock, and took second place, but he fell over the rails, Directly afterward Game- cock challenged Baron Schroeder’s Savoyard and won by three lengths, Savoyard second, Lord Wolverton’s Johnuie Longtail a bad third, Chancellor a very bad fourth. - Watching For the Yachts.

STORY OF A GREAT CRIME. The Oiroumstances of the Killing of Had* dock Related By Witneases. BUT FEW NEW DEVELOPMENTS. Movementa of the Murderers and the Fatal Shot—Startling Evidence Expected to Be Brought Out To-day. Stovx Cir gram tothe B dat murder trial are only limited by the capacity of the court room. Long be- fore the hour for opening court the available space is filled. The taking of testimony bas been in progress all day, and hence an in- crease of interest on the part of the specta- tors. Quite a number of ladies were present during the day and not a few strangers. The state has been at considerable of disadvan- tage all day, owing to the prolonged and en- forced absence of M. D. O'Connell. Arens- dorf was accompanied by his wife and one child, as on yesterday, and was more calm and collected than on any day since the trial has been on. The witnesses examined to-day were Willlam C, Davenport, deputy sheriff; Drs. Conniff and Bergen, Rev. C. C. Turner, Tom Jarvis, James Mc- Gregor, Wesley Hickner, Charles Eber- hardt, chief of police; James Nelson, deputy marshal; A, Lagger, Dr. Savage aund Jack Ryan. testimony to-day has principally been to establish the fact of Rev. Haddock's murderand the circumstances of the same, without going at all into the underlying causes. Physicions testified as to the nature of the wound and how necessarily fatal it was, Several of the witnesses establisned the fact that In:‘ulry was made at the livery barn from which Revs. Hadaock and 'I'urner obtained their conveyance, to the return of the same. The livery attendants saw men in groups on the opposite side of the street in the dark, and at the corner of Fourth street. Wwhere the murder was committed. Aftor delivering the rig, Rev. Had- dock started out, returning imme- diately and made inquiry as the meaning of the group and then stared out again alone. Other witnesses identitied the small gear wheel and fastenings which Rev. Haddock carried and with which and 'k heavy cane he proposed protecting himse Rev. Turner gave a full account of the fate- ful trip to Greenville. Hetold of the route taken and th& method used by Rev.

He did not know the man, but he looked like Sylvester Granda. Jack Ryan saw about a dozen men go west on Fourth street about ten minutes before the shooting. 'They seemed to be in & hurry and had on gum coats. ‘lhere was no recular order about the erowd except the first three, who walked side by side and ahead of the others, Witness saw LI, L. Leavitt in the crowd and spoke to him and he spoke in re- turn. He was one of the first three. lmme- diately after the shooting witness saw par- ties run up Water street and across a vacant 1 One man came up the walk running, another party ran in the street and then to the sidewalk. They stoprml running as they saw witness. Hecould not tell who they were. Witness passed them walking very rapidly. He saw six run up Water street and north to a vacant lot. When he got to the corner where Haddock was he did not see anything more of the parties that were running. Attorney Marsh, at the conclusion of the witness' testimony, strongly advised the court of tne disadvantages under which the state was laboring by reason of Attorney 0'Connell’s absence, "especially in view of the fact that the state had come to a point where very important testimony was to be presented.” By consent of the defense, therefore, an adjournment was taken until to-morrow morning, when it is certain Mr. O’Connell will be present. Just what the testimony will next disclose is unknown, but everybody is anticipating something of a etartling nature to-morrow. The defense has not manifested a disposition to be very rigid in cross-examination as yet. OTHER EVIDEN The first witne: led was Deputy Sheriff Davenport, who testified as to the proceed- ings in the court room the day preceding the murder, and to finding and “caring for the body after the shooting. He was followed bfi‘ hief of Police Nelson and Deputy Mar- shal Lagger, whose testimony was in the same direction. Dr. Berzen and Acting Coroner Conniff testilied as to the examina- tions made of the body, describing the wound and position of Dr. Haddock when they arrived. Chief of Police Nelson testi- fied as to his first information of the murder and of the surroundings when he reached the scene. He assisted Jack Ryan to lift Had- dock out of the gutter, and at first thought it was a man named Kavanaugh, who wore a braid very much like Haddock's. Jerry Mer- rill, proprietor of the livery stable, said it was Haddock. Witness “got water and washed the dead man’s face and sent for the coroner, who wasnot found for fully an hour,when the body was removed to tne parsonage. Dr. R, E. Conniff, acting coro- ner, took the stand next and said he was notitied of the killing by Policeman Heitfelt. When he reached the scene of the killing Haddock was dead and the body was cov- ered with a gum coat. e examined the body and found a watch and 86 on the per- son. The night was dark and rainy. He found a wound in the neck made by a bulle! which entered the lett shoulder, went out af an angle between the chin and the jaw on the right side. Deputy Marshal Lagger re- cited the story of the night's transaction and of his hearing the shot whnile on Fourth street. When he got to the scene he found Ryan — trying to lift the man from the sidewalk to the gut- ter. He did not recognize the person who was gasping and trying to speak, Wesley Hich- ner testified that he was the stable boy who hitched up the horse for themn and for whom inquiry was made later by an unknown man a8 o whether the preacher had returned, ‘Thomas Jaryis, colored, another stable hand, told of Haddock’s return and his inquiry as to whether the crowd he saw on the opposite side of the street were laying for him. It was while engaged 1 unhitching the horse that he heard the shot, and going to the door saw the man that was shot about the middle of Fourth street. He stacgered and fell, got up, staggered and fell, made a gurgling noise. No one was near him, ‘There was a gas light in front of the Columbia house and an_electrie light in tront of the Star restaurant. When he fell witness went backand got a lantern, and as he came out he saw_a man who called him over. It was Jack Ryan. McGregor brought asponge and a pail of waterand the two washed off the blood. Haddock was trying to speak but could not. He lived a litle time, gasped a few times and was gone. A Newspaper's Sudden Suspension.

T, DeWitt Talmage, delivered his lecture on the Bright Side of Things to an an- dience of 2,000 peovle at the exposition building last night. Rev. Talmage ar- rived on the evening train from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where he lectured on Thursday night. He appeared here under the auspices ot the Vassar alumni association of Omaha. He was intro- duced by Rev. A. F. Sherrill, pastor of the First Congregational church as “the celebrated mimster and lecturer, Rey. T. DeWitt Talmage of the United States and other lands,” and was warmly greeted by the large audience as he stepped to the platform and enterad upon the de- livery of his lecture. The reports of the famous preacher’s eloquence have not been exaggerated, and none heard him without being greatly impressed. His lecture, which occupied nearly two hours in delivery, was replete with terse son- tences, thrilling pen pictures and happy 1llustrations and kept the interest of the audience fully aroused. The speaker in introduction said: This is a pleasant world to live in. Iam glad that I got aboard this vlanet. No blas- phemer will criticise the arch of the heav- ens, There are acres of rolling meadow to ome cliff fit for the grave digger’s spade. There are whole armies of spar- rows to one owl, there are miles of the level river for every toot of rapids. The world is good and yet many people de- nounce it.

He borrowed $25 from me and from pure delicacy of f ing never referred to the matter again. I've no use for the, religion of h a man.” “Life,” said the speaker, “is an old fashioned pilgrimage.

You can read anything in life until it 18 light or until it i3 dark. Every- thing depends upon ourselves. Be like miuers and carry your own lights. Bet- ter go to the other extreme and be happy at everything than to be discontented with everything. The speaker cited the man with bad manners as the second photograph in the rogues' gallery. All of the fine clothes in the world will not make a gentleman. God alone makes the gentleman. You see n man once and you muke up your mind whether he is a gentleman or not. You guess once and guess right whether you guess him a gentleman or not. Compare the woman who spent her life 1n plain attire earing for wounded soldiers in hospitals or on battle fields with the woman I saw in a street car the other day who changed her seat because a soldier ‘came in and sat near her, Which is the lady? You can’t make a lady out of such stuff as the last named. A'man of good manners always has a faculty of making you feel happy. The pick-pocket who steal your purse is more of a gentleman than Eo who steals your good hamor. There is no more winful art than that of saying pleasant things in a pleasant way, and there is nothing more disagreeable than the habit of always having something unpleasant to mention. There are men who have a faculty of finding everything weak in character and parading it before the pub- lic. They oflend in words and manner. We can stand a well developed eccentricity, but chronic _disagree- ableness _has no place in the world. Oddities are criminal when they make in- roads upon the Imlrginesl of others. A June morning will blossom more flowers than all the blasts of a century of Junua- rys. Society will bear anything before it will a bear. No man is well behaved who has no regard for time and circum- stances. The lounger is one of the most disa- greeable in the gallery, He always comes when we don't want him and stays long after we are tired of him. He hasnothing to do and supposes you have not. Blessed is seasickness, gout, fleas and all cutane- ous afllictions compared with the lounger. The man with the blues stands next in the gallery. Every man has his share of misfortune. We can excuse a man for oc- casional depression, but who can endure the man who is incessantly sombre and charged with evil ptognostications. We are responsible if wg dé not conquer our bad tempers. Thergare more prizes than blanks in thev lottery of = life; there are millions' of peoble to one pair_of Siamese twind; whole orchards of pippins to one erabiree.

Commissioner Webb said to- y: “These two convictions have stirred the "Sunday people up. Heretofore they have been in the habit when arrested for vio- lation ot the law, of paying'a small tine or for- feiting their collateral, but Judge Snell is de- termined to make them stand trial. If they are convicted twice for this offense their li- censes can be forfeited.” “But will you do it?” was asked, +‘Certainly,” replied the commlssioner. *'Wa sall revoke the licenses of every one ;){,(,heul. It's our duty. The law requires Heretofore the saloons have been kept open on Sunday almost as publicly as on other days, TROTTER IN BAD HEALTH, 2 It looks like the controversy over James M. Trotter, the colorea recorder of deeds for this district, would be ended br that oflicial's death. ~ Physicians were twice in consulta- tion to-day, and say they will not be sur- prised if Trotter dies at any moment. He has pneumonia, and was quite well when he came here less than a month ago. THE INTER-STATE_COMMISSION. Inter-State Commerce CommIssioner Mor- rison was seen to-day and asked it any of his colleagues had arrived in the city. He said he had not been apprised of the arrival of a single one of them, but he had no doubt that they would all be here at at’ early day and that the board would organize for work with- out any more loss of time than may be ac- tually necessary, It is reported, however, that the board is not in a hurry to begin work, and that it does not expect to accom- plish much before September, after the hot sunnner months are over and autumn traflic begins.

A Boy Killed and Two Men Seriously Injured, & About 12 o'clock last night as some stock cars and a car containing emigrant movables were being switched from the Northwestern to the Kansas City road, in Council Blufts, the car containing the household goods was thrown from the track. In the ear were Petor Lees, his son, William Lees, aged eleyen years, & man named Abel Carson, and two cows and four horses. The party were on their way from Ogden, la, to Cheyenne county, Nebraska, where Carson’s fam- ily resided, Lees and his son going for the purpose of looking up some land there. The accident occurred at the Northwestern and “Q” crossing, the hind trucks of the car breaking loose and ditehing 1t. The boy was taken out of the wreck as soon a8 possible and died soon after. His father after the accident found himself standing on his head and could hear his son cnlfiug for help, but was unable to render him any assistance. Mr. Carson was pretty badly injured, having his left leg and one rib broken. One horse and a cow were killed, Dr. Lacy was immediately summoned and attended to the injured men. The coroner waa notitied and visited the scene of the wreck and empaneled a jury consisting of Messrs. O'Brien,Stevens and Unthank. . The body of the dead boy was removed to the undertaking rooms and after viewing the remains the jury ad- journed until this morning. SPOKTING NOTES. Matters of Interest in the Local Field. The bicycle race between Bullock and Ashinger at the exposition building to- night will be an exciting one. The race will be for fifty miles for $50 and the un- disputed title to the championship of Ne- braska. The men are more evenly matched than any two riders who have appeared in a race in Umaba, both are in cexcellent trim and the race will be a very close one. The programme will be opened by a five-mile race between Ed Lydle and Charles Moth, two amateurs who ride 58-inch wheels, the largest used in the city. The race will be for a medal. Colonel McLaughlin, of Minneapolis, is expected to arrive in the city to-da: and be in readiness for his match witl Moth, which will take place at the exvo- sition building on Monduy night. The match will be two Grzco-Roman, two collar and elbow and one catch-as-catch- can falls. Moth and McLaughlin are two of the best wrestlers in the country, and their match will doubtless prove a draw- ing attraction. In addition to the Moth- McLaughlin match there will be a catch- as-catch-can contest, three best 1n_five, between Elliott Edwards, the South Omaha wrestler, and Samuel Matthews, the champion of the Pacific coast, who arrived in the cit{ yesterday. Manager Bandle expects a part of his ball players to arrive to-day. A party of wheelmen will attempt a road ride to Blair to-morrow if the weather remains good. AMUSEMENTS. SHADOWS OF A GREAT CITY, “Shadows, of a Great City" was pre- sented to a large audience at the opera house last night. The gallery element was prominent and made itself heard at every possible opening for a demonstra- tion. The piece is one that holds the at- tention throughout and not only rouses the audience but keeps it constantly amused. The situations are thrilling and even blood-curdling, but the comedy vein is kept uppermost, so that the play does not become monotonous. Annie Ward Tiffany was as amusing as ever in her sketeh of Lrish character, and George Edeson, as Jim Forren, was excellent. The restof the cast was ncccptah]g filled, The scenic effects were remarkable and elicited great —enthusi . “Shadows of a Great City” will be repeated this af- ternoon and evening. DER STABSTROMPETER Opera comic has been selected by Otto Puls for to-morrow, Sunday, March 26, at Boyd’s opera house. The picce is new and highly recommendede by the Amer- 1can German press. The New York Statts Zeitung says: “The viece was so well applauded n the Thalia theater, that we predict a great many repeatals of the same.” Davenport Vunoreat says: ‘‘The re- peating of the ‘‘Stabstrompeter was a grand success. It kept the public ina fair humor and earned loud applause. Every role is in the hands of artists” Reserved seats may be sccured at Boyd's opera house from 10 to 12 noon. —————o More Boodlers jcted. CuicAGo, March 25, —The grand jury re- turned fifteen or twe indictments against the county “boodlers” this afternoon, but mab"numes of the indicted aro not made ublic. l)‘Adlm Ochs, ex-chairman of the county board, and Daniel Wren, a prominent mem- Dber of the present board of commissioners, were arrested this evening, charzed with complicity in the “boodle” operations that have left Cook county virtually bankrupt, Ball was promptly given in each case, Wren's bondsman being Colonel Abner Taylor. A eaplas was also issued for J. Van Pelt, the noted ex-commissioner. He sent word to the sheriff’s office that he would be on hand with bondsmen to-morrow morning, accord- ingly he was not taken into custody to-night. Van Pelt is popularly supposed to be the head center of the coinbine, ‘I'here have been rumors for days past that he had turned in- former, involving many well known persons outside of the officials, “The tact that he has not been arrested, although indicted, lends coler to the rumors concerning hiin and has caused renewed consiernation among the sus- pects, whose number 15 placed as high as fifty. l{mictmenu, it 1s understoad, were returned Iate this evening against Elisha A, Robin- son, & wealthy wholesale grocer, who has had a great number of county contracts for sup- plies, and against C.

A “NEARLY CRAZED with pain,” is the sad cry of many a victim of rheumatism or neuraigia, and frequently other diseases, such as kidney and liver complaints, are directly traceable to rheu- matism or neuralgia.” These discases for some unexplainable reason, are rapidly in- creasing, and in many instances are the di- rect cause of much sickness which so hides its real origin _as to be mistaken for other diseases, In curing rheumatism neuralgia, sick headache, and in many cases nf kidney and liver troubles, Athlophoros has wrought wonders. Those who have used it are best qualiffed to speak of its merits, Rev. L, B. Senter, Morse, Kansas says— “About two years ago, my daughter-in- law was taken with a severe attack of rheumatism. She could not turn herself in bed. I sent her one bottle of Athlophoros, and by the time one half was used tlis ws free from all pain, and has had no return of the trouble since. It has also been of great benefit to my wife in neuralgia. Henry Mar Muscatine, lowa, says, I did have rheumatism very badly until [ used Athlophoros, which has completelv cured me. For seveeal years there would be certain times that I could invariably look for a severe attack of rheumatism, which would confine me ta the house for a week ata time. I was suffering from a vory se~ vereattack in my arms and had been con. fined to the house for a week at the time I used Athlophoros, The first two dos seemed to go right to the seat of the my relief was simply wonderful after Iuld taken two doses of rhe medicine, After I had used one bottls my pain was all gone,l had free use of my arms so that I went back to work.
