LOTS OF TROUBLE.
A Countiymnn from Cliffoid Goes tho
Wayward Course,
l'iollle Wells, big, halo and forty,
came to t'aibnndulc on Friday to do
the town, and as a icsult he was called
to do time under Jail Warden Kllleen's
watchful can-. Wells started out on it
grand thicc days' Jamboree and right
merrily did ho carry on his task. Dur
ing the time hi' got Into many unto
wanl situations, and Is now minus his
money and it twcnty-llvc dollar gold
watch. Wells, In company with four
well-known young blonds" of tho
town, a female Included, look a Jaunt
up Simpson way In a hack. They
lauded un at .lack Jones' house In
Moi'Koy Ituii ;u jdaco of unsavoiy
iHputatlon for even that rncy llttlu
hanilel. What took place within. Wells
knows not or would nut tell. On the
Jouiney home the same quintet ocell
liieel the hack and space being scarce
the, glil lather crowded his Joblots
f i oui I'lltTord. As must best of friends
the live cniousers patted, lint not till
nttu" the supination did Wells notion
the1 lo"s of his timepiece. And then
particular t'aln was to pay. n Main
stteet tlie faiiupf got rather boister
ous In wouls and unsteady In actions,
and I'atiolmnii Mi-Audicw took him hi
tow. As Wells was lugged Into the
jail ho thought he saw bicycles In the
air. Hy ycsteulay morning, he had got
over his hiilluclnallou, however, and
was given a hearing befoio Mayor Kll
patriek.who lu a fatheily way "drilled"
him for his unbecoming conduct and
told him to go home. Wells, however,
wanted his watch, and went out on a
silll hunt for his companions of tho
hack ible. He got their names and
soon had warrants Issued for their ui
lest, So far, however, they have sue
I'eeiled in eluding the constable, but In
all probability will ho brought In to
answer the several charges today.
After sweuilng to the Infonnatlon,
Wells Marled out to celebrate again
and towaids night was in a fair way
to Unci a resting plae-e for the second
time on the Iron cots of the city lock
up. A Romantic Play.

A False Rumor.
A rumor gained considerable- ilrcu
latloii yesterday that ICdgar Stuck, son
of .1. X. Stuck, of South Main street,
had been klllcel In a railroad accident
on tho Ontario ami Western nil I raid,
Mr. Stuck, In peison. showed up in tho
afturiioou and soon convinced his
friends of their mistake. The wreck
mentioned In another column probably
gave rUe to the story.
John Bell Burled.
The funeral of tho late John Hell,
whose obituary appealed In Monday's
Tribune, was ludtl yesterday after
noon, At .1 C'clock, flow A. F, Chaffee,
pHHtor of tho I'iist Methodist lSplsoo
pal chinch, conducted services at tho
house on Brook street. Desplto the In
clemency of the weather there was n
very large attendance, showing the high
and general esteem In which the dead
man was held. In order that his for
mer associates nt tho locomotive shops
might attend the funeral, tllat Institu
tion did not work during the after
noon. The policemen of the city, of
which ho was ono for four years, also
nttended lu a body. There were many
handsome floral tributes. They were
carried by Frank Jones, Kdward
Peters, John Fox and David Ttocse.
The pall bearers wei'o John Ncnser.
Walter Wilson, George Fisher, Free!
Huddy. William MeAndrew, James
Hell, Uobert Blair and Patrick Mc
Donald. Uurlnl was made In Maple
wood cemetery.
The Mock Trial.
One of tho most successful and en
tertaining meetings of the High School
Literary society was held last evening,
when a mock trial was held. Owing to
the bad state of the weather, theio
was not u largo audience, but those
present, certainly, greatly enjoyed the.
affair. The contesting attorneys used
many odd arguments In trylni? to
cither prove or refute the guilt of the
accused, and whether or not they con
vinced the honorable Judge and tho
fair Jury, they did create a furore In
the court room. The tipstaff was leni
ent, however, and for two hours almost
the fun continued. The literary soci
ety contains some excellent material,
and another public meeting will be
held shortly.
Tho Last Recital.
The last of the series of Lenten or
gan teclUls given by Trinity guild,
was held last night In tho Kplseopal
church. Thero was a large attendance
and all wero fully repaid for It was,
perhaps, the best of the threo con
certs. Prof. Haydn Kvans Glaciated at
the pipe organ nnl his work was al
most faultless. The vocal music was
likewise excellently rendered. The
funds netted from the recltnls will be
used to ccmplelp the handsome pipe
organ.
Another Euchre Tarty.
The Voting Ladles' Communion Table
association of St. Hose church met last
night to appoint committees to perfect
arrangements for a piogresslve euchre
paity to be given In Burke's hall short
ly after F,astcr. Following the card
playing a promenade social will be
held. The event will be on an even
more elaborate seale than the one re
cently given In St. Hose hall.
To Undergo Treatment.
X). C Benscoter, the veteran Drill
ware and Hudson engineer, left yes
tcrday for New York city, where bo
will undergo treatment In Roosevelt
I'nspl'i''. It Is probable he will have
to undcRo an operation, which his
many friends hope will prove entirely
successful.

In a leeent letter to Dr. Hiirtmiiu, Congies-smitu Botkln, of Winlleld,
Kan., whoso fame is u national ono, says of I'eiuna.
My Dear Doctor "It gives; me pleasure to testify to the excellent cur
ative qualities of your medicine Pertina nnd IManalin. I have been af
flicted more or less for a quarter of a century with catarrh of the stomach
and constipation. A residence in 'Washington has inci eased theso
tioubles. A few bottles of your medicine havo given me almost com
plete relief, nnd I am sine that a continuation of them will effect a per
manent cirre. Peruna Is surely a wonderful remedy for catanhal affec
tions." J. D. Botkln, Congiessman-at-Largo.
CONC.UKSS.YIAN liUTKIN Is one of
the most Inlliientlal ami host
known men in the State of Kan
sas. Whatever he may say on any
subject will be accepted by the people
ns the truth. So famous a leniedy iih
I'eiunn could not have well escaped
tin- attention of so famous a man. He
not nnlv has heard of the remedy,
but he has used It and v as relic veil or
an allllctlon of tweuly-llvo years'
standing. I'ei-una 1st tin- one Intoiual
teincdy that cures chronic catarrh. It
1'Uies c.ttanh vvheiever located. This
Is a fact that tlie people; aio lapldlv
llndlng out, but thero aie still a large
multitude who need to know It.
Mr.Frank Itlchter, of Winona, Minn ,
says, In a letter to the I'eiuna Medi
cine Company:
"Ah a remedy for oataiih I take'
pleasuic In lci'oiuinenillng I'eiuna for
catarrh of the stomach. I know what
It Is to boallllitcd with this awful ills
case and consider It my duty lo say a
word In behalf of the remedy which
gave me such relief. I'oi-una imiiccI me-,
and I know It will cure any one else
who suffers fiom this disease, it gives
me great pleasure to testify to (he
curative effects ol' tbl medicine. IV
runu Is a well tested and freeiuently
iiscel remedy, and for catarih of the
stomach It Is unsurpassed.
"My e-ataiili was principally located
In my head and stomach. 1 tiled many
remedies without success. T tiled sev
eral doctors, but they wore unable to
cure me. I load of Peruna In tho pa
nels itliel live bottles cured me."
Frank Itlchter.
The rjastllc julo Is secreted by the
mucous follicles of the stomach. When
this Juice Is nurmiil It digests (dis
solves) tho food without piodui-lng any
disturbance whatever. If, hovvevei, the
gastric Juice Is not noimal, digestion
causes many ellsugreeabb- symptoms.
This condition Is known as Indigestion.
