Residents of tlio Lnst Ghnnce Set
tlement Air Differences In Aldei
rinn's Court.
S.jVuvtl families In the Last Clmiirc
sitttennnit inu divided by differences'.
v.hitV.i thoy Hired In Alderman Atkln
nm'fi rotirt Severn I nlRlitft this week.
Tuesday night, there was h luieeny
mid ifiielvliiK case. In which the for
te ie' teller. Mury. the Dane, tlKtircd.
liuf which whs reported In these col
umns the nueeeedliiR dny. The next
'ilRljt. the alderman hud another suit
Lcfriie him from the same settlement
ami which prow oilt of the Hold watch
ease.
..osoph Aloeol was the defendant, and
ill" progenitor wiih Krauk Stone, his
i l;:lil)or. .McRiil Is a brother- In-law
of Blosso Andrew, the man who had
Mono arrested on the ohtil'Kc of per
jury, because the last-iiaincd appeared
iiKii'lusl him as a witness In the lar
ceny cast). In which there was no evi
dence iiRiilnst Andres. Now Stone, In
a spirit of pique, causes the arrest of
MegHl. on the ohai'KO of selling: liquor
without a license. Stone and his wit
nesses swore that Mogul was In the
habit of buying laser beer In lots of
l.ve nml six barrels, particularly on
Sjiuiday iiIkIii, and It appears, also.
Stone and his witnesses were Mosul's
best customers, htiylm; the beer from
him In larne quantities, paying as IiIkIi
as u dollar for the portion served out
to them. Incidentally, It might be
said, that the quantity which they
lecdlved trom Slegal was appreciably
creator tlutli they eoulcl have secured
at a saloon. This act of Mogul's was
i "carded in the settlement as a big
ncioiiimodatlon, but Meb.il's obliging
act laid him open to prosecution,
wlileh Stone recognized and took ad
vantage of, it is said, in order to
square himself with Megal.
The alderman held Megal in ball to
await the grand Jury's action.
CONSTABLE NEARY OUT.
He Left Emergency Hospital Yoster-
day Afternoon nnd Was Warmly
Greeted hy His Friends.
Constable KcHvard Neary, the nfflecr
.vho risked bis life to captuie the In
furiated Nathan Cobb, on Monday
Tilcht, left. lCmergeney hospital yester
day afternoon and joined his family at
the residence on South Main street.
The I n lured officer appeared to lie
strong, and declared lie felt w-ell, save
for tlio effects of his three days' con
finement, at the hospital. Everywhere
the constable went he was warmly
greeted, nnd he continually heard ex
pressions of sincere regret over his
meeting with Cobb's murderous
weapon. Neary's head was swathed In
bandages-.
Cohb's ferocious attack on Neary
was strikingly evident In two long cuts
across his coat, just above the' liln.
One was about a foot across, and the
oilier was a. few inches less. Kaeli
tin ust of Cobb's knife penetrated
through all of Neary's clothing, but
singularly enough the Mesh was nut
even scratched.
Cobb was seen about Oreenlleld yes
terday, and additional steps for his
e.inlure were taken by Chief McAn
drew. A DANGEROUS EXPERIENCE.

but luckily he eniergoii without harm,
though his adventure somewhat dis
turbed him.
The young man set out for Crystal
lake." and when he reached that resort
he sought out a stable to put up his
horse during the day. In driving Into
the.baVii some milk cans or other ob
struction tlnew the carriage to one
side aiM'l over the embankment which
arose from the surrounding Held. The
happenlns' was so sudden that the
horse's sense of danger was of no avail
and the young man, too, was helpless
to avert the mishap. The carriage
toppled over, and the young man was
sore and bruised when he was relieved
by helping hands from Ids perilous
plight. The frightened horse It tc
Itiired .Mime time to calm, and for sov
ral days It showed the effects of the
xcltiug experience, being restless and
inable to eat.

Senor Quesado, Secretary of the Cuban Legation in Washington, is an
orator born. In an article in The Outlook for July, 1.!i;i, bv Ceorge Kennan,
who heard Quesado sneak at the Hsteban TIii-iiIoiv Mniimviiu rv.ivi i,. .,..!. i.
"I havo seen many audiences under the spell of eloquent ypeoeh and In the
grip of strong emotional excitement; but I have larelv witnessed such a
seenu as at the close of Quesado's eulogy upon the dead patriot, Marti." In
a letter to Tlio Poiuna Medicine Company, written from Washington, JJ. C,
Senor Qucndo says:
"Peruna I can recommend as a very cood medicine. It
is an excellent strengthening tonic-, and it is also an effi
cacious cure, for the almost universal complaint of ca
tarrh."
Peruna does not operate upon the
sstem, an the usual remedy does, li
Is not a local treatment. It opeiates
as a systemic remedy. It gives tone lo
the 'weakened nerve centers, and thus
gives tona to the mucous membranes
that, line the various oigans of the
body.
Catarrh is always located in some
mucous membrane. Catarrh is a
tlabby condition of the blood vessels of
these membranes. Peruna gives tone
to these vessels and restores them lo
their natural elasticity.
Thus i'. is that Peruna strikes at the
at the bride's home, on Wednesday
evening, by the P.ev. Di. II. H. Harris
pastor of Calvary Daptist church.
