The New Remedy for Catarrh Is
Very Valuable.
A Grand Haplds gentleman who represents
n piomlnrnt manufacturing- concern and
travels through Control and Southern Sti'-h.
Ignn r. lates tho following regarding the
new catarrh cure Ho says:
"After hufferlng from catarrh of the head,
throat and btomach for ueral vears, 1
heard of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets quite nc
cldentalh. and. like ever thlrg else. I 1m
medlnteiu hnusht a package, anl was de
flledlv 8urprl?ed at the immediate relief
It afforded me, and still moro to find a
i-oiupicie cure after sei-eral weeks use.
"I havo a Uttlo son, who sings in a boys'
choir in onu of our prominent churches
und lie Is greatly troubled with hoarstneJ
und throat weakness, and on my return
home from a trip 1 gave him a tew of tho
tablets one Sunday morning, when he had
complained of hoarseness. Ho was deigllled
with their otfect. lemoving all husklness in
u. few minutes and making the volco clear
and strong.
"As tljs tablets are very pleasant to tho
taste, 1 had no clllnculty in iicisauUlng him
to uso them regularly.
"Our family phjaiclan told us they
wcie an ant.septlc preparation of undoubt
ed merit ana mat no mmseif had no Hesi
tation la using and recommending Stuart's
Catarrh Tabtois for anj' form of catarrh.
"I have since met tnany public speakers
and professional singers who used them
constantly. A prominent Detroit lawjer
told mo t.iat Stuart's Catarrh Tablets kept
his throat In lino shape during the most
trjlne woathcr, and that hu hau long &Ineo
dlscardod the uo of cheap lozenges and
troi'hos on the advice of his phj-slcfun that
they contained so much tolu, potash and
opium as to render their uso a uanger to
health."
Btuarl' Catarrh Tablets aro large, pleaH-ont-tahtlng
lozenges, composed of cat.irrh
al antiseptics, like Red Gum, Blood Root,
etc., e,nd Bold bj" druggists everywhere at
DO rents for full treatment.
They act upon the blood and mucous
membrane, and their composition and re

of physicians, as woll as thousands of kuf

Karlv vesterday morning Ivlns was arrested
bv the di partment onicers nt Nineteenth

over unaer an assumed name. It was
thought that Ivlns and Davis had ben
working together at Davis's home, and that
a key to the residence might be found on
Ivins. so that the rest of the gang could
be captured.
A little before noon officers watching tho
Davis residence, saw Mrs Davis come out

and took her to the Four Courts and then

fact that they are under arrest
Davis Is eiulte well known to the Se-cret
Service department. About six years ao. It
Is said, that he was arrested on a charge of
counterfeiting, and served six months in
the city Jail. At that time Davis and his
wife were living on Gano avenue, near
Broadway. To collect evidence against
Davis and his partner, it was necessarj to
thoroughly search the premises. A well
about thirty feet deep was pumped out,
and D"putv Marshal Rrennan went down,
.end after a careful search he found some
of the coin which had beer, thrown into
the well
During the h"arlng Mrs. Ivlns was oc
cupied with trjing to quiet a year-old In
fant, which she held In her arms. She
feared that she would be separated from
the child when she went to the Jail, and
was grcatlv- delighted when told that It
