practically cleared up by the state
board, but no summary of the work
has been made. In the assessment last

thirty companies have been added, and
a few dlopped out, being absorbed by
some of the larger companies. There

who claimed to represent a Kansas
City liquor house, succeeded in vic
timizing a large number of farmers
residing in the vicinity of Toronto.
He made Toronto his headquarteis for
a period of ten days while canvassing

were very attractive, and his samples
of liquor were said to have been of the
best. As a result orders poured iu
upon nim in a generous stream. When
he took an order he required part or
full payment for the goods sold. Those
who gave him their orders and their

their "booze."

TROOPS SECURE
THE UI?ER HAND
Artillery Used at Barcelona
With Awful Effect
CASUALTIES ARE HEAVY
Although Meager the Reports Tell oi
a Bloody Conflict Between Ten
Thousand Armed Revolutionists and
the Spanish Artillery and Cavalry
Thirty Thousand Moors Pressing
8pain's Defeated and Exhaustec.
Forces In Morocco.
SPANISH CRISIS CONTINUES
The Spanish crisis at home and
abroad continues to present many
alarming features, with Barcelona yet
in the throes of a revolutionary move
ment and an army of 30,000 Moors
pressing Spain's defeated and exhaust
ed forces in Morocco.
The reports from Barcelona are om
inousiy meager and from roundabout
quarters. But the revolutionary move
ment appears to have passed its cli
max. Government troops are now re
ported to have the upper hand. The
artillery has been used with mercllesa
effect, driving back and capturing the
main bodies of rioters and driving the
remnants to outlying sections. The
scattered fragments of Information
coming through Madrid and frontier
points are doubtless censored and
lacking in exactness, but they give
details of bloody conflicts between
10,000 armed revolutionists and tho
Spanish artillery and cavalry.
From many interior points come re
ports of riot and Incendiarism. But
the movemept is scattered and with
out apparonly a central or^naizatlon
or a leader. In the north there are
fears that Don Jamie, the new Car
list leader, will take advantage of •he
situation by renewing the Carlist
movement against the dynasty.
Spanish warships have come to the
relief of tho defeated army in Mo
rocco and are reported to be shelling
the Moorish forces. The battlefield
wher*» the Spaniards lost 3,000 is a
vast graveyard. The Spanish medical
and headquarters equipment is de
moralized by unpreparednesa for its
gigantic task.
PREPARING FOR NEW EFFORT
Moors Withdraw From Outskirts of
Mel ilia.
MoMlta, July ai.—The Moon have
withdrawn from the outskirts of thia
city. It is believed they are concen

hundreds of their dead, whom they
were unable to carry off.
After the tribesmen had retired the
sad work of burying tho Spanish dead,
which already were rotting in the sun,
was hurriedly accomplished In the ra
vine where two columns of Spanish
troops were Vnbushed while trying to
rescue a convoy. The ground was
oovered with heaps of corpses, many
of whom wire mutilated after death.
The bodies had been stripped of their
nrms. In older to prevent an epi
demic the bodies were dumped into
holes.
Tho steamer Moullla has arrived
here with hundreds of tons of sheila
tor the artillery and cartridges for the
soldiers, whose ammunition was run
ning low.
The greatest confusion reigns at
the array headquarters. The over
worked staff peems demoralized. Ex
act figures of tho dead and wounded
since the heavy fighting broke out
with the Moors are refused.
TROOPS GAIN UPPER HAND
Capture Main Body of Insurgents at
Barcelona.
Madrid, July 31.—The news from
Barcelona that the cavalry and troops
have gained the upper hand and cap
tured the main body of Insurgents
and that only Isolated bands are hold

greatest relief in official circles here.

be followed up throughout Catalonia.
It Is officially announced that the
cavalry engaged at Barcelona succeed
ed in driving into St. Martin s square
the principal band of revolutionists,
against whom the artillery opened

successfully for a long time the revo

alties at Barcelona.

July 31.—The reports received here
from Spain confirm the terrible fury
of tho women throughout Catalonia.
At Barcelona they fought behind the
barricades with the men, urging them
to fight to the death. Everywhere
they resisted searches by gendarmes
for recruits for the reserves, barring
the doors of their houses and firing
•t the soldiers from the windows.
At Caaa de la 8alva the populatioa
surrounded and disarmed the civil
guard and looked up the officials in
the barracks.
Not only at Barcelona but through
out the province church property was
the special object of the popular fury.
Horrible stories are recounted of tho
tnerciless fashion in which the
churches and convents were sacked
and burned. The inmates of the in
stitutions were driven into the fields
to cries of "Down with the church."
At Granollers, sixteen miles from
Barcelona, two convents were burned.
At Amer the Carmelite convent was
looted and burned. The sisters nar
rowly escaped with their lives.

oral of Barcelona has telegraphed to

of the rebels are now being tried by
military courtmartial and summarily
executed. There i3 no train service
between Barcelona and Madrid.

Catarrh of the Stomach
a
Prevalent Disease
Here is another case. Officer George
Y. Stout, 724 North Broadway, Balti
more, Md., says: "I suffered very much
with catarrh of the stomach and ner
vous Indigestion. I lost fifty pounds in
fonr months.
"A friend called my attention to a
remedy, which I used, and gradually
got well. I have gained half my lost
•weight back again."
Chronic Stomach Trouble.
Mr. Robert J. Gillespie, 630 South
Main St., Los Angeles, Cal., secretary
of Lather's International Union, was
also suffering from catarrh of the stom
ach along time. He grew thinner and
paler, lost all ambition and appetite.
Sick at the stomach, indigestion con
tinually.
A friend also called his attention to
a remedy, which brought about a de
cided improvement. After continuing
tho use of tho remedy for a month, he
considers himself permanently relieved.
Now, once more. Mr. Christian Hof
man, Hlatington, Fa., says he suffered
for many years with catarrh of tho
stomach. It produced a miserable
cough, day and night. He tried doctors
and many remedies. At last his atten
tion was called to a remedy, the same
remedy that relieved the others which
have leen referred to above. He claims
that he was entirely rid of his stomach
dillienlty.
Pe-ru-ixa Brought Back Health.
What was the remedy that has
wrought this remarkable relief? So far,
the remedy has not been mentioned.
If any one doubts the correctness of
these statements it is very easy to ver
tfj* them by writing to the people w hose
names have been given, enclosing a
atamp for reply.
The remedy is within the reach of
wy one. It Is simply the good, old
standard reliable remedy known as

Difficult to Relieve.
A O A N E I I E N E E Y
Mr. 8. W. Jackson, 815 Weaver Block,
Greenville, Ohio, says: "While I was
superintendent of construction of J. F.
Bender and Bros.' Co., of Hamilton,
Ohio, I became entirely unfit for busi
ness with catarrh of the stomach.
"A friend called my attention to a
remedy for this condition. I began to
Improve at once. I was soon able to re
turn to my former profession.
"It would require many pages to de
scribe tho condition I was in and the re
lief I have obtained."
If the truth were known, the proba
bilities are that Peruna has relieved
as many cases of catarrh of the stomach
as any other popular remedy in exis
tence. We have a great many unsolic
ited testimonials from all parts of the
United Slates, declaring in strong and
enthusiastic terms that Peruna has en
tirely relieved them of catarrh of the
stomach, that they were wretched and
miserable beyond words, but l'ernna
has restored them to health, vigor and
happiness.
These are the facta. Now, if you have
stomach diiliculty, it is up to you to act
upon them or ignore them, as jroa
please.
Symptoms of Stomach Catarrh.
'•The affection maj result from error*
in diet, or tho u*e of alcohol. The ex
cessive use of tobacco, especially when
the Juice or the leaves are swallowed,
is likely to cause it.
"Highly seasoned or coarse, irritating
foods, sometimes induce the disease.
"As chronic gastritis (catarrh of tho
stomach) is essentially a secondary
affection, one of the primary causes is
an unhealthy state of the mouth, nose
or throat, sueh as bad teeth or catarrh
of the nose (ozena).
"The patients are usually poorly
nourished, pale, sallow, thin, fatigue
easily induced, muscles flabby. Losa
of appetite or capricious appetite.
"Tho tongue is usually coated brown
ish gray. Cankered mouth la a com
mon occurrence.
"Pain is not common. When present
it is usually dull, and Is aggravated by
food, especially when this is of an irri
tating character.
"Vomiting may occur-in the morning.
Also after meals. Sickness to the stom
ach frequent and persistent.
"Food produces dull headache, and a
feeling of general nervous distress.
Constipation usually quite marked."
These symptoms, given by Gould and
Pyle, coincide exactly with the
frequent
descriptions Dr. Hartman is receiving
from patients all over the United States.
If you have any of these symptoms
get a bottie of Peruna. Take a do.se be
fore each meal. See If your stomach
does not immediately feel better, your
appetite Improve, your digestion at
once resume business.
People who object to liquid medicinee
can now secure Peruna tablets.
