C. H. Leavftt is a tnj-ted employe of tlio
Unit- d Oil Limipuuy ut v-oalcroeK, Co.orauo.
For several years his health has been bud,
and rapidly going from that to worae. He
was troubled with constipation,a very seri
ous nervous headache,sharp pains down the
back, general debilitv, and. In fact, was so
generally run down in health that it seemed
there wasn't a well port or function to him.
During the winter of ’95 and ’U6, he was not
able to walk any distance or take any great
exertion whatever. He continued work be
cause his employment required very lilt e
labor, but he nail one of his children with
him constantly lust he should be overcome
and faint away.
Mr. Leavitt tried several physicians, but
none could do anything for him. Instead of
improving under their care, he grew rapid
ly worse. Although he tried many prep
arations and medicines nothing seemed to
fit hi» case.
Sometime in May last, he read an acoouut
of Dr. Williams’ Dink Pills in the Canon
City Record, and he determined to try them.
He immediately purchased a box at H. H.
Rosser’s drug store in Coalcreek. und began
their use. After ho had taken four or five
boxes ho noticed a wonderful change, und
after that he began to improve rapidly.
Now Mr. is a strong, hearty man of
200 pounds weight. He has his full strength,
is never troubled withconstipution, nervous
headache, pain in back, and in most ways
feels better than he has felt before in many
years. He has a good appetite, and savs he
feels like a new man. Mr. Leavitt attributes
Ibis recovery wholly to Dr. Wilburns* Pink
Pills for Pale People. lie Is 44 years of
age and has a family of seven children.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills contain, in a con
densed form, ail the elements necessary to
give new life and richness to ihe blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are also a
specific for troubles peculiar to females, such
as suppressions, irregularities and ullforms
of weakness. They build up the blood, und
restore the glow of health to pale and
sallow cheeks. 1 n men they effect a rad ical
cure in ull cases arising from mental worry,
over-work or excesses of whatever nature.
Piuk Pills are sold in boxes (never in loose
bulk) nt 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50.

I.unjf and bronchial diseases are among
the most baffling complaints which doctors
have to deal with; because it isn’t the lungs
or bronchial tubes alone which arc affected,
>mt every corner of the system furnishes a

They change and reappear and dodge
about the system under numberless dis
guises. They are almost always compli

The best detective remedy which Nature
has provided to search out and arrest these
perplexing ailments is I)r. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. It lays an arresting
hand directly upon the poisonous, paralyz

UNCLE SAM’S AUCTION SALE.
Annual Disposal of Aii-umulut lona ot
the Dead Letter Office.
One of the queerest "institutions” ol
the national capital is the annual clear
ance sale of the dead letter office, in
tykich a vast accumulation of articles
gone astray in the mails is sold to the
hignest bidder, nays me Indiauapolis
Journal. The auction house where it
is held Is continually crowded with
excited men, women and children and
beside it the bargain counters during
the holidays are as havens of rest, for
when Uncle Sam goes Into the Junk
shop business great things are ex
pected. As In the church-fair raffle,
you pay a small amount of money and
trust to luck to get back more than
Its value. The articles, previously
listed in a wholesale sort of way, are
tied up in bundles of from three to
a half dozen and "auctioned" for what
th*y will bring, the average bids rang
ing between 10 cents and a dollar. No
body Is permitted to examine the goods
before purchasing and no money is re
funded to the dissatisfied. Everybody
hopes to pull a genuine plum from the
pie In the shape of a diamond ring, a
silk dress pattern or a silver tes; ot
and, although comparative blanks are
the rule, there Is always the possibility
of a prize. For example, the auctioneer
holds up one of these odd-shaped bun
dles, listed "Pictures, underwear,
music, cigars. Going—going-gone—
for 90 cents to a dapper young gentle
man who was caught by the word
"cigar.” He opehs it on the spot —an
unwise thing to do if one objects to
good-natured ridicule —and this Is what
he finds: Six cigars broken into bits,
so strong an odor that one wonders
how a sledge-hammer could have done
it; music, soiled copy of "I Love You,
Mah Honey, Yes I Do”; underwear, a
female 10-cent "jersey”; pictures, col
lection of newspaper cuts, designed for
amusement of some small child. The
lot would be dear at a quarter and is
of no use to the buyer. In the dead
letter office proper—that cliarnal house
which swallows nearly half a million
missives every month, it is positively
harrowing. More than forty bushels
of photographs have accumulated there,
awaiting the annual cremation. There
are tresses of hair, enough to stuff a
dozen mattresses, grandmothers’ silver
locks and babies’ golden curls, many
no doubt cut from dead brows; and
small sums of money which poor work
men send home to feed their wives and
little ones and servant girls save from
their scanty wages for needy parents —
gone to Uncle Sam's rich purse, not be
cause the United States wants it but
because the senders’ writing or or
thography was beyond mortal ken. It
is hard to realize that in this land ol
schools at the close of the nineteenth
century there are so many people so
ignorant or so careless as to send sev
eral millions of letters a year without
stamps, or addresses, or with addresses
which no man can make out. People
seem to be so intent on what goes into
the letters that they forget all about
tlie superscription. It is estimated that
$1,500,000 in drafts and $80,000,000 in
cash Is received every year through
dead letters.
THE LATE MR. WILLIS.
I-lfe of the Man Who Died Itei-ently In
Honolulu.
United States Minister Willis died at
Honolulu of pneumonia, which he con
tracted in San Fran cisco several
months ago. Albert S. Willis was born
in Shelby county, Ky., In 1843, and
served as a Democratic representative
from the Fifth Kentucky (Louisville)
district from the Forty-fifth to Forty
ninth congress inclusive, when he was
succeeded by Mr. Caruth. After the
mission of Paramount Commissioner
Blount to Hawaii and the report he
made to the President alleging that
Queen Lilliuokaluni had been wrong
fully unseated from the throne of the
Hawaiian island by United States in
tervention, Mr. Willis was appointed by
President Cleveland, in September,
1893, minister to Hawaii, and was sent
out with sealed instructions to restore
LiUiuokalani to her throne on condi
tion that she grant general amnesty to
those persons Instrumental In setting
up the provisional government, and
recognize all bona-fide acts and obli
gations. Queen LiUiuokalani, however,
refused to promise to grant the amnes
ty, and the upshot was that Mr. Willis
eventually recognized the Dole govern
ment and was subsequently formally
accredited to it.
The anxieties of his position had a
marked effect upon his health and ap
pearance. When he left for Honolulu
he was a fine specimen of physical de
velopment, with a full black beard and
hair. When he returned on leave two
years later his hair was white, and he
was in appearance a wreck of his form
er self. He discharged his exceeding
ly difficult duties in Hawaii with
marked tact and discretion, and was
popular there, in spite of the adverse
circumstances which surrounded him
from the start. President Cleveland
was deeply affected by the news of the
death of Minister Willis. He said he
had known Mr. Willis for many years.
He was an honest and thoroughly capa
ble man, whom the President held in

he learned with deepest regret.

R. SAMUEL SPAR
hawk has returned
to Burlington, Vt.,
from a quest In
which psychical
agents are the
chief mentors, says
the Pittsburg Dis
patch. It is still
in progress. Its ob
ject is the rescue of
Dean B. Connor, if
he still lives, or to learn his fate, if
dead. Mr. Connor was an expert with
the calcium light and stereopticon ef
fects. He directed that feature of a
successful play during Its run in New
York. Then he went to the City of
Mexico with a theatrical troupe and
was stricken with tropical fever. His
death anil burial were reported and a
$2,000 policy wa« paid to his father,
W. H. H. Connor, assistant postmaster
of Burlington. About a year ago P. C.
Dodge, who had been a lifelong friend
of Mr. Connor, went to Mexico and
opened the grave. The remains that it
contained were not those of his friend.
Mrs. Hannah Piper, a medium who
had been tested by the Society of
Psychical Research of Boston, was con
sulted by Mr. Connor's family and
friends. She said that Dean Connor
was not dead. Other mediums made
The above illustration shows the famous chestnut tree of Mount Aetna. It appears like a group of trees, Il
ls not, for it is all from a single stump, and measures 100 feet in circumference. The lower parts are largely hol
low. but the tops thrive. It Is called the "Hundred Horse Chestnut Tree.” for It is reputed to have sheltered
Jeanne of Aragon and a troop during a heavy storm. Savants have figured it out that it must be from 3,000 to 4,000
years old.
like assertions. An investigation led
to the belief that Mr. Connor had been
taken from the common ward of the
hospital and cared for in a private
room until he had recovered and was
discharged. A Mexican was put In tho
bed that he had vacated in the com
mon ward, and as the name over the
head of the bed was not changed Mr.
Connor was supposed to have died in
stead of the Mexican. Further inves
tigation convinced friends that after
recovery from the long run of fever
Mr. Connor’s reason was clouded and
ho did not not know enough to com
municate with his friends. The medi
um said he was confined In an Insti
tution of some kind. The Psychical
Society became so positive of its abil
ity to locate him that P. C. Dodge and
Dr. Samuel Sparhawk, who was an in
timate acquaintance of Mr. Connor
went to Mexico, and have been work
ing for nearly two months under the
guidance of the adepts, who sent them
telegraphic suggestions bearing upon
the strange case. Consul-General
Shaffer at Vera Cruz gave every pos
sible assistance, as did F. R. Guernsey,
editor of a paper published In the City
of Mexico. In the consultations with
Mrs. Piper regarding Mr. Connor’s fate
the spirit of an old man has broken
through her while in a trance. Her
descriptions of Mexico and places
and people were accurate to the small
est detail. The medium herself, so it
is claimed, has no knowledge of Mex
ico. At times another incorporeal be
ing, apparently a younger man, ex
pressed Itself through Mrs. Piper by
means of writing. The writing bore
no resemblance to the medium's own
chirography. It was that of a well
educated person and gives exact de
scriptions of the country in which Mr.
Connor now is. By those directions
Mr. Dodge and a searching party have
been conducted from the City of Mex
ico through town after town to Orizaba,
thence to Puebla, where they now are.
Puebla is 120 miles from the City of
Mexico, and Its scenery, streets and
surroundings have been exactly pic
tured by Mrs. Piper. Telegrams re
ceived at frequent Intervals direct th;
party. They sometimes mention towns
by name, oftener by the scenery
around them. One message told Mr.
Dodge to go up a certain street, turn
to the left from a church and proceed
toward a hill. With such details the
searchers are able to find the exact
localities indicated. The Connors fam
ily say the search Is not a sensational
or .superstitious experiment. They, with
mem berg of the Psychical society, re
gard it ns a scientific Investigation.
They say that the United States and
Mexican governments and a large num
ber of peisons In all societies of psychic
al research are deeply interested and
ready to assist in any way possible.
While in the various towns the search
er? visited the workhouses, asylums
and other institutions, looking for
clews. At one sitting it was said by
the spirit that Mr. Connor was in a
building at work with his hands and
that he had on a checkered frock. The
details of his appearance were enough
to be absolutely correct and some of
his physical peculiarities were men
tioned. It was stated that he has lucid
Intervals and that he has written two
letters which he hud dropped from a
window but which no one found. They
say he suffers much menially but that
his mind is clearing. If Mr. Dodge
falls in his search, the spirits say, Mr.
Connor will return some day of his
own accord.
MOUNTAIN SHEEP.
In Colorado They Are Coming Near the
Mountain cheep appear to be increas
ing in Colorado, and, stranger still, the
rare and timid animals are leaving
their dizzy haunts among the high
mountain peaks and drawing nearer to
the habitations of men Lh«ui ever be
fore, says the Denver Republican. In
the comparatively low lands near the
town of Jefferson there Is now a flock of
fifty or more mountain sheep. Jeffer
son Is on the South Park railroad,
about eighty-one miles southwest of
Denver, in Park county. It is an old
established community, and has near it
the well known summer resort. Jeffer
son lake. The vicinity, disturbed by
the rumble of trains an well us the
sounds of human life and industry, is
not at all a quiet one. It has none of
the characteristics which usually
mark the natural home of the almost
extinct mountain sheep. And yet for
several days past a band of at least
fifty of the soft-eyed, large-horned na
tive sheep of the Rocky mountains has
been calmly grazing around the town
of Jefferson anti close to the railroads.
It is said that the sheep do not display
any sign of fear of the Jefferson peo
ple. Many of them come in open day
light within easy pistol shot of the
residences. They do not run away un
less somebody curiously tries to fright-

en them. For many years the sight of
mountain sheop has been a rarity in
Colorado, and usually but one at a
time has been seen. A hunger far off
from civilization might decry a solitary
sheep perched on a crag overlooking
some wild and steep canyon, but hardly
ever within gunshot range. No such
thing as fifty sheep together lias been
reported, even by the veriest Mun
chausen of hunters. When a lone
sheep was seen it usually disappeared
from view at the slightest alarm.
Considering these things, the descent
of fifty sheep upon the town of Jeffer
son, as though they had formed them
selves into an excursion party, some
where among the mountains, does not
look reasonably explainable. The
general theory is that bitter cold and
deep snows In the higher altitudes
drove them downward, and that they
joined together for mutual protection
as they traveled from peak to peak.
Killing mountain sheep is absolutely
prohibited by law in Colorado. It is a
closed season all the year round with
the animals, just as It is with buffalo.
A Hud Monkey.
Mr. Texter, proprietor of Ulmer park,
on Gravesend Beach, L. 1., has a mon
key in his menngerie that is credited
with some queer pranks. He likes
whisky, beer and wine, takes a drink
whenever he can get It, and like many
of the human species goes on a spree
once in a while. That is, he quits his
cage and disappears for a time. Wheth
er he leaves the park and goes to Coney
island or Bath beach is a question, al
though it is reported he lias been seen
in both places. If he returns home in
the night and finds that he is locked
out he gets in by breaking a pane of
glass. That he is bitterly opposed to
the Raines law is evident from the fact
that one day when a copy of the law
was lying in a chair near his cage he
came out, tore it into shreds and ate it.
Like some human men this monkey is
a wife-beater. A much smaller female
monkey occupies the cage with him.and
her face and head always hear marks
of his cuffs and blows.
A Stamlar l.
He is a man of Irascible impulses and
a bluntness of speech which wins him
many enemies. At the card table he
was greatly annoyed by a lady who
insisted on paying more attention to
the conversation than she did to the
game. "I see no reason,” she was say
ing. "why a woman should not assume
just ns much importance in all affairs
as men do.” "I see none myself," re
plied the irascible man. with unusual
gentleness, "provided she is intellectu
ally qualified to do so.” "And what
would you suggest ns the test of her
mental fitness?” "As good test as any
would be her ability to remember what
are trumps.”—Washington Star.

VICTORIA’S NERVE.
Slit* lit it Woman of Karo Self-I’oaeoa-
A singular fact übout Queen Victoria
is that she has not only always en
joyed exceptional good health, and that
even at her present advanced age she is
unusually strong and well, but that she
has had more hair-breadth escapes
than any other sovereign in history,
says the New York Journal. No fewer
than seven attempts have been made on
her life, and these have been occasions
when the queen has seemed face to face
with death.. Hyde Park was the scene
of the first attempt on the queen’s life,
which wus made by a youth of 17, who
on the 10th of July, 1840, fired at her
majesty with a pistol. The prince con
sort. to whom the queen had been mar
ried a few months before, happily saw
the youth in time to draw his wife
down beside him. so that the ball
passed over her head. The mad youth
was for some time confined In lledlam,
and was afterward allowed to go to
Australia. Only two years passed away
before the second attempt, when, al
most on the same spot, a man named
Francis fired at the queen as she was
again driving with the prince. The
shot missed ami Francis wus sentenced
to death for high treason, the sentence
being afterward commuted to transpor
tation for life by desire of the queen.
Strangely enough, on the very day her
majesty’s clemency became known, a
hunchback named Bean, a mere youth,
made another attempt to injure the
queen'. He was transported for seven
years. Twenty-one years ago, when
the queen was crossing to Gasport from
Osborne, there was a collision with the
royal yacht, in which throe persons per
ished. But once more her life was pre
served. On many other occasions the
queen has been in great danger, such
as when, in August, 1851, her majesty
was in a railway accident and when,
soon after her accession, the horses at
tached to her carriage bolted. On
each of these occasions the queen’s self
possession has been remarkable. Cool
ness and presence of mind have been
characteristic of her whenever danger
has threatened her. "Great events.’’ she
has said, “always make rie calm.”
