NOTHING EQUALS IT.
For the Cure of Catarrh.
A physician now retired from prac
tice, but who still keeps abreast of the
times, In sptnklng ot the advanco
made In medicine In the last ten years,
jays: "One ot the most obstinate nnd
bnl'llng diseases Is tho very common
trouble, catarrh.
Nasal catarrh Is only one of Its
many forms: catarrh of the throat,
catarrh of the stomach, bowels, liver
and bladder are very common, but the
sufferer usually thinks It Is tomethlng
else than catarrh and Is tieated for
the wronir disease.
The best and most successful treat
ment for any form of catarrh Is now
admitted to be by Interna! remedies
through the stomach and the safest
and probably the most efficient Is In
the tablet form, sold by druggl'ts as
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
I have seen ninny remarkable cuie.i
of catarrh resulting from regular dally
use of these tablets, which seem to
act on the blood and liver, driving
the catnnhal poison out of the system
through the natural channels.
I nnc hail occasion to analyze thosa
tablets tirt.i found them to contain no
ciiiMihit- 1101 opiates, but simply a com
bination of harmless antiseptic Uko
Kui'iilpytal. (iiialacol, blood root, etc.
At any rate I have known of severe
catarrhal headaches which were cured
by Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and ca
tarrhal deafness, hay fever, asthma
nnd cut a rib of the throat and stomach
speedily show stent benefit after a
few days' use of tho remedy and when
It Is remembered how much more con
venient a tablet Is thnn Inhalers,
douches, salves and powders It Is not
r.urprlslng that this new preparation
should so rapldlj- supplant all other
remedies for catarrh.

The total amount of coal produced In
the district during the yenr 1899 was
7,374,671 tons, showInK a falllnR oft
this year of 1,003,023 tons. This shrink
age Is, of course, nttrlbutable to tho
sis weeks' strike In the fall. There
were twenty-seven widows and fifty
orphnns under fourteen years left to
mourn the deaths of the men who lost
their lives durlntr the yenr.
The report shows that In produeltiR
the coal there were 201,359 kegs of pow
der used. Thirty-one tons of conl ivcro
produced for everj" kep of powder.
There were 112,763 pounds of dynamite
used.
The Inspector reports that In no mine
In the district Is there a deficiency ot
means for the proper ventilation. In
mines where there Is not proper ven
tilation, the fault, ho says, lies with
the foremen who sometimes show a
woeful lack of tact nnd use peculiar
and false Ideas of economy.
In referring to the fatal accidents he
says that 63 per cent, occurred nenr
the gangways and chambers. This
shows that the main roads of the mines
are comparatively free from danger.
Ho refers especially to the carelessness
and recklessness of many of tho miners
and says that If they were half as
careful of their own lives as those em
ploying them are there would be fewer
accidents.

The Twelfth ward election squabble
was also aired yesterday liuforc Judge
Kelly. It will be temembered that
James Carroll, the Judge of election lit
the First district, refused to go on with
tho count and took tho ballot box to
the city hall. In defense of this ac
tion, he said "yesterday In court that
James O'ltoyle, the Inspector, wanted
"to run the whole thing himself."
O'Doyle. he said, had Insisted upon
having everyone cleaned out of the
election booth before the count began.
Carroll, as Judge, wouldn't agree to
this. O'Uoylo repudiated Carroll's
chat cos and shifted the responsibility
on to him. Judge Kelly rebuked the
entire board fop Its Ignorance of tho
law, and ordered that thu box be
opened and a count made. The count
showed that McDonald, Reap and I-af-ferty
had been chosen as the election
'board.
