on Nov. S he delivered to Tucker &
Maxev two diamonds valued at $1W.0S
on memorandum and that on the 13th
of this month he approached the said
defendants and demanded that they
pay for or return the diamonds. As tho

on either side and the alderman bound
the defendants over for appearance at

ly end disastrously to them If all re
portsor one-tenth of them prove to
be true. Suits for typewriters, whis
key, diamonds and dozens of articles

A BAD ACCIDENT.
Occurred Yesterday Morning' at 5
O'clock.
Yesterday morning, shortly after r
o'clock, Anthony Tomanla, of DundafC
s-treet, arose from his trundle bed and
proceeded to lay out a repast for him
self. Antonio, which appellation his
countrymen know him by. Is an Italian
and very popular with his friends in
the colony. He may well be thankful
that he Is living today, for he experi
enced a peculiar and very narrow es
cape from an untimely grave coon after
he arose, lie was cutting some bread
with a jack-knife which is the Imple
ment most of his fellowmen use in slic
ing tho staff of life when It slipped
and Its point sank Into the lower por

A GREAT REMEDY.
For Sufferers from Piles.
Dr. Kcdmond, a specialist in tho
study and treatment of piles and rec
tal diseases, recently stated that tho
l'.viamld I'lle Cure, the new discovery
for tho cure of piles, was tho most re
markable remedy he had ever seen or
tried lu one respect: and that was tho
Instant relief experienced in all cases,
no matter how severe, from the mo
ment the remedy was upplled. This
was the more surptlsing to him be
cause he h.id carefully analyzed tho
preparation and no truce of opium, co
caine or slmilai poison could bo de
tected. Physicians look with great favor
upon the Pyramid l'llo fine, because
It is rapidly tuklng place or surgical
operations und brcaufeo It Is so simple,
so easily applied and contains no niln
crul or other poisons so commonly used
in cuies.
Dr. Esterbrook reports that the Pyra
mid Pile Curo not only cures the va
rious forms of piles, but never falls
to give Immediate relief on the lirst
application, no matter how sovcre the
jwln or discomfort may be.
People who have suffered troni piles
for years are often a.ttunislicd at the
Instant relief experienced in in tho first
application. Another Important ad
vantage is tho fact thut onvone iv
uc the remedy without detention fioin

rupntlun . Sold by druEglsu ut 50 cents
