Tndigestion
IS not only a distressing complaint, of
I itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayer's Snrsnpnrllln.
is the best euro for Indigestion, even
when complicated w Hit Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lako, of Urockway
Centre, Mich.:
"Liver complaint and indigestion
made my llfo a burden and camo near
ending my cxiitenco. For inoro than
four years I suffered untold ngonv, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and linrdl v
had strength to drag myself nbout. Ail
kinds of food distressed me, and only
tho most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the tlmo mentioned several
physicians treated mo without giving re
lief. Nothing that I took seemed to do
any permanent good until I commenced
the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to tako tho Sarsapa
rilla I could seo an Improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it camo tho ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength im
proved each day, ami ntlcr a few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, I found myself a well
woman, nblo to attend to all household
duties. Tho medlclno has given me a
new lease, of life."

BANKER BELMONT DEAD.

Remarkable

Career.
THE FUNKUAL ARRANGEMENTS.
A Ttrlef bnt Comprehensive Sketch of the
'pi.tlncnt.lied Mew Yorker, Who Waa
Famous its Financier, rolltlelan, Turf
man and IOTr of Fine Art.
New York, Not. 25. The fnncral serv
ices OTer the remains of the 1st August
Belmont, who died of pneumonia at his
Fifth avenue residence, Nor. 94, will bo
held at the Church of the Ascension on
Saturday, after which the body will bo
taken to Newport for Interment August
Belmont has been an actlvo character In
financial circles for four decades. Hewn
born In 1818 on his father's farm in the
Rhenish Palatine, near Frankfort, Ger
many. He received a thorough commer
cial tralnlug as a schoolboy and after finish
ing a full course of studies, he was sent to
Frankfort, where, at the age of 15,. he en
tered a prominent banking house aa an
office boy. In 1833 young Belmont was sent
to Naples, where the Rothschilds had largo
financial transactions with the papal and
bourbon governments. Ho was then almost
a lad, but so thoroughly convinced wore
his employers In his ublllty as a careful
and Intelligent financier that they intrusted
him with this delicate mission.
Hi. RemoTnl to America
In 1837 Mr. Belmont came to this city
and rented n small office in Wall street
from a Mr. Gerard, and in those limited
quarters ho laid the foundation of a house
which has since become one of the wealth
iest and most honorable in the financial
world. In 1811 ho was appointed consul
general for Austria in this city. He served
In this position for five years, and only re
linquished his office on nccount of his
sympathies with the Hungarians. In 1853
he was appointed American minister to
Holland, and his services in that capacity
are recorded as unexceptional. When S3
years of age he met the then famous
beauty. Miss Perry, daughter of Commo
dore Perry, the hero of Lake Erie. After
a snort courtship they were married.
A Great Art Collector.
In 1850 Mr. Belmont, then In a position'
to gratify his inclination for the fine arts,
bought a collection of old Dutch and
AUOOST BKUIONT.
Bpanish paintings, for which he quietly
laid down (300,000. These paintings, how
aver, form but a small minority of the col
lection which he has since accumulated.
His graceful and darjuR horsemanship can
be added to his other and numerous ac.
complishments. Although all his Ufa he
was chiefly devoted to financial affairs, he
was never concerned in the malicious pro
fessional manipulation ot the stock and
money markets.
III. Unel with William Hayward.
One of the most sensational events of
Mr. Belmont's life was his duel with Will
iam Hayward, of South Carolina, near
Klkton, Md., Aug. 2fi, 1811.
Hayward's brother stated at the time
that Belmont's intimacy with a lady had
ben resented by Hayward, and the former
having spoken of the latter in terms not
particularly complimentary, Hayward had
struck Uelmont, whereupon the latter had
challenged him to mortal combat. A
gentleman named Lake acted as second to
Uelmont, aud a Mr. 1'urdy served Hay
ward in a similar capacity. Arriving upon
the ground, the principals were placed by
their seconds, and upon the first round Mr.
Belmont was shot In the hip. One lire, it
ispems, was" sulllclent to appease toe
wounded feelings of these chivalrous gear
tlemen, and Mr. Uelmont was borne bleed'
tng to his carriage. At the time it was
supposed that he was mortally wounded.
A Staucli Ilemocrnt.
In politics Mr. Uelmont was a stanch
Democrat, and was the friend and intimate
of Hon, Samuel J, Tildeu, Senator liayard,
Congressman Kandall and oilier lending
lights of the Democracy. Mr. Uelmont
weighed about 100 pounds, was dark com
plexloned and slightly bald; he bad spark
ling dark eyes and iron gray side whiskers
The mansion is nt No. 109 Fifth avenue,

sentative of tho great Kotbschllds' bunk
log house, which has a capital of t-500,000,

py him was ff00,000, aud he had other re
sources. Mr. (Jelmont leaves a wfe and

ter is the wife of G. S. Howlaud. His sous
are Ferry Uelmont, Oliver Uelmont and

111. Ilaclng Career.
blnce 18U7 August Uelmont has been a
prominent figure in racing and breeding
circles. During the early days ot Jeronio

August Belmont. soon began to turnout

saudy boII was, some six years ago, found
not so well adapted to raising racers as Ken

vestment com
pany. The Investment Company of Phila
delphia started three years ago with a cap
ital of t2,000,000, which was made M.OOO,
000 eighteen months ago. The main func
tion has been tho promotion of new under
takings of promise, and the capital Is
mostly locked, up In such enterprises.
At this time, If forced to liquidation,
these ventures would necessarily be sacri
ficed and the Investment company's cap
ital consequently Impaired.
The house Is the Philadelphia corre
apondeutof Baring Bros. The firm consists
of Wharton Barker and Abram Barker.
Wharton Barker is president of the Finance
Company of Pennsylvania. Tho firm also
controls the Wharton Switch company,
whose works are at Jenklntown, Pa. It
gained a world wide reputation some time
ago by its Chineso Inter-telegraphing bank
ing scheme. It was also associated with
the great Heading pool. In the iron trade
the failure Is considered of slight impor
tance to iron Interests. Mr. w barton Marker
is largely interested in the Bethlehem Iron
works and other concerns, but has no con
trolling interest in any of them.
The firm hns not yet prepared any state
ment of liabilities and assets. The liabili
ties are variously estimated from 6,000,000
to $15,0(10,000. Wharton Barker baa as
sured some of his friends that their assets
exceed their liabilities by over (1,000,000.
THE 6CARE SUBSIDING.
Xt .Now Look, as Though the Indlao.
Will Itemsln Quiet.
Standino Hock Aoenct.Nov. K. Every
thing is quiet here. The Indians here nro
drawing their supplies and all appear to
be happy. Sitting Hull's family are also
in. Mai. McLaughlin Is ln-a happy frame
of mind over the peaceful state of affaire
and apprehends no trouble.
Many Soldier, on Deok.
CniCAOO. Nov. 25. Telegrams wero re
ceived all day from western posts by Gen.
Miles, who directed the troops' movements.
A larger force than has been mustered in
the west since 1876-7 will be about l'ine
Ridge by Wednesday. The re-enforcements
are sent on account ot the advicos
received from Gen. Urooke, who is disposed
to tako a very serious view of the situation.
At l'ine llldge agenoy the situation Is no
better and no worse. Agent Dover made
this statement to a correspondent: "The
great'army of Indians now hero remain
quiet and anxions. Beyond on the hilts
are the ghost dancers, left fior the moment
by their leaders, as defiant aa ever. Mean
time the military preparations for some
big movement continues. Over 4,000 In
dians are iu camp here. The soldiers are
watching them narrowly and there will
probably be no outbreak."
An array onicer writes uen. Miles that no
has seen the Messiah. Last spring a man
named Johnson Sides called upon theofll
ccr. Sides said he was known as the Peace
maker among all Indians and the whites of
Nevada where he lived. He could talk very
good English, waa dressed like an ordinary
laborer, but bad the Indian's way ot wear
ing his hair.
Sides Bald that Indians bad como from
afar to see him, and he pulled out a pipe,
such as is made by the northern Indians,
which pipe was recognized as having come
from either Montana or Dakota.
"I firmly believe that this is the good
natured Iudian that has caused all this
trouble," the officer says; "that he haa
taught the members of his tribe the story
of Christ or the Messiah, and the time
whence he will once more visit this earth.
He has no doubt delivered the story ill Its
true light, and the Indians retelling the
story have warped and woven it according
to tbelr understanding."
