FACTS VBRIFEXD BY THE MAYOR
AND OTHER PROMINENT MEN.
An Investigation b)^ the San Francisco Examiner Demonstrates
the Absolute Truth of a Cure That Almost Paralells
the Miracles of Old—Its Full Significance
to All Nervous Sufferers.
Toe town of Chico, in Butte coun
ty Cal., is in a state of excitement
ver a miracle so marvelous as to
be almost beyond belief. The local
papers have given columns to the
discussion of a case that, with ail
reverence, might justly be compar
ed with the miracles of old, for here
is a man who was blind and be sees,
-ipeechless and he talks, powerless
to move and he waiks and works.
Pronounced incurable no later than
the spring of last year, he is this
week shingling a roof and repairing
a building.
So widespread became the fame
of this miracle of modern times
that a San Francisco Examiner rep
resentative visited Chico and made
a thorough investigation of the case.
Every scrap of evidence was sifted
and the most searching inquiry
served only to establish the truth of
cure, that, although miraculous, is
unquestionable.
Caused by Paralysis.
John Hunter, who has suddenly
become one of the most interesting
personages on the coast, is a veter
an of the civil w 7 ar through which
he served in Co. C. of the 120ih Il
linois Volunteers He is sixty-one
years of age, by occupation a car
penter and builder, and resides on
ing against hope, determined to t»y
hs pills. I mentioned it to my doc
tor and he not only gave his con
sent to my trying Dr. Williams’Pink
Pills but strongly advised my doing
so.
Now Secs, Talks, Walks and Works.
You see the result. From a blind,
helpless paralytic, unable to move
snd so broken down and hopeless
that life was a burden, I can now
walk, do any odd jobs about the
place, go down town, and—most
wonderful of all—can see. And I
owe it aii to Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pilis.
Improvements began while 1 was
taking the second box I continued
taking the piils and from that time
on it u’as gradual but sure. My aw
ful stomach trouble have disappear
ed, my eyesight has been restored,
my brain is clear and active, and if
ever a man should be grateful and
anxious that others should know
the wonderful properties of Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills, that man is my
self.”

Interest in this miraculous cure is.
intense in Chico and vicinity where
Orient Street, Chico- When seen by
the Examiner representative, be
related a story that,were it not sub
stantiated by his sworn statement
and corroborated by ali the promi
nent people and officials of the town,
would seem like a tale of fiction.
“About four years ago,” said Mr.
Hunter, “I was suddenly stricken
with paralysis. I lost all sense of
feeling and all power of movement
In my right side, from head to foot.
I also partly lost the power of speech.
I soon became totally blind and was ;
so perfectly helpless that for three
years I was confined to my bed.
Given up as a Dead Man.
“Anyone in a more hopeless con
dition it would be bard to find. My

any way afford the slightest relief.
“After being virtually given up
as a dead man by friends and phy

apparent fate, my neice read an ad

JOHN HUNTER.
the townspeople have the evidence
ol their own eyes as to its authen
ticity. Newspaper space is too lim
ited to give expression to the many
who are willing to be heard, but the
following prominet citizens voice
the sentiment of the whole com
munity.
A Clergyman’* Opinion.
The Rev. W. G White, pastor of
the Chico Presby’erian church, of
which Mr. Huntor is a member, has
known the latter during and since
his iilne9S. When asked for an ex
pression on the case, Mr. W 7 hite
wrote and signed the following:
“The recovery of Mr Gunter
seems very remarkable and his
present condition is the wonder of
his friends.
Prominent Banker's Statement.
Mr. A. H. Crew, is cashier of the
Bank of Chico. He is a sound, con
servative, able financier whose ad
vice is sought after and followed by
his townspeople. Mr. Crew told the
reporter that he had known John
Hunter for a number of years and
that his recovery was simply mar
velous. He knows Mr. Huufer to
be very enthusiastic over Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills lor Pale People,
and was willing to corroborate Mr.
Hunter’s sworn statement. “I had
never expected to see him recover
any of his lost faculties, much less
to see him able to walk, see and
work, as he now is,” concluded Mr.
Crew.
The Postmaster of Chico.
The postmaster of Chico is Mr. W.W.
Wilson who,when interviewed,said:
“I can only corroborate the state
ments you already have. Everyone
you meet aud ask will teli you the
same thing. I was at Mr. Hunter’r-
hou-*e and saw his pitiable condi-
! ion with toy own eyes. I have also
seen him to-day,walking the streets
and practically well I know enough
of John Hunter to say that he would
not make an untruthful statement,
nor would he mislead anyone as to
ihe means that brought about what
we all consider one of the greatest
cures of the age. His affidavit can
therefore oe absolutely depended
upon.
A Matytloui Cure.
In the Chico Record, published
by Ri hards & Deuel,and article ap
peared from the pen of one of their
reporters sent to investigate the
! case and verify the fac.s. The ar
tide was headed :“Blind John Hun
ter Recovers his sight.” “Story that
Reads like fiction.” After reciting
| the cure of Mr. Hunter, the article
j continues: “M ;rye!ous as this may
-eem to his friends aud still more
marvelous as his story of his recov
ery may appear to everyone who
reads it, it is ali true, though it
would not be accepted if it were not
for the fact that he is a living wit
ness wi!h scores of friends to cor
roborate him. The article concludes
with the statement that Mr. Hunter
desired the credit for his cure to be
given to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pill3.
THE MAYOR OF CHICO
Gives HI* Endorsemnet to the Account of
the Miracle.
One of the most prominent and
public spirited citizens of Chico, is
the Hon. O. L Clark, now serving
his second term as mayor and pres
ident of the board of trustees of the
city. Speaking of the case related
above, Mr. Clark told the represen
tative of the San Francisco Exam
iner that he knew of John Hunter’s
former helpless condition and said
it was generally considered a hope
less case. No one was more astound
ed than Mayor Clark when he met
Mr. Hunter on the street, able to
walk, work and care for himself.
He considers th9 recovery nothing
short of miraculous. In conclusion
Mayor Clark said he believed the
cause of suffering humanity could
be helped by any publicity given
the remedy which restored John
Hunter’s health.
A WONDERFUL MEDICINE.
What the California Miracle Means to Ev
ery Nervous Sufferer in the I.and.
No more astounding cure than
that of John Hunter has ever been
acconoplised by human agency, and
the significance of it is that Dr. Wil
liams’Pink Pills are not an ordinary
medicine. They are wonderful in
their potency in nervous troubles,
small or great, as they are on sale
in every drug store throughout the
country, they are within reach of
all. The cure of such a severe ner
vous disorders as that of Mr. Hun
ter proves the power of the remedy
in lesser troubles, such as sciatica,
neuralgia, nervous headache, St.
Vitus’ dance and nervous debility.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have a
double action—on the blood and on
the nerves It is not claimed that
these pills are a cure-all,but the very
nature of the cure-all, but the very
nature of the remedy makes i; effi
cacious in a wider range of disease
than any other. It is a scientific
preparation designed to cure dis
ease through a direct action on the
blood and nerves. Impoverished
blood and badly fed nerves are the
cause of nearly every ailment that
effects mankind. If the blood is kept
pure, rich and red, and the neryes

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
Flood of New Bills Introduced by tho
Members.
Atlanta, Oct. 28 —The main thing
accomplished in the house today was
the defeat of the bill by Mr. Howard of
Dooly to require the grand juries of the
several counties to pass upon the appli
cations for pensions before they can be
allowed by the pension commissioner.
A flood of new bills were introduced.
In the senate Mr. Bell offered a reso
lution for the appointment of a joint
committee to suggest what amendments
were needed to the constitution of the
state. Several bills of minor importance
were introduced in the upper body. A
number of appointments were sent in
by the governor.
The following bills were disposed of
in the house:
By Mr. Lane of Sumter, providing for
a panel of IS instead of 12 jurors in the
city court of Americas, 103 to 0, passed.
By Mr. Howard of Dooly, to require
all applications for pensions to be ex
amined and recommended by the grand
jury of the county of the applicant be
fore allowed by the pension commis
sioner, 41 to 80, lost.
By Mr. Mitchell of EinanfleL to
amend subsection 11 of secciou 4082 of
the code to allow county authorities to
fix compensation for justices of the
peace for names furnished the tax re
ceivers nor exceeding 3 cents per name,
93 to 0, passed.
Atlanta, Oct. 29.—The house consid
ered only two measures today, the How
ard franchise tax bill and the Hall bill
to prevent judges frem directing ver
dicts by juries.
The first, after a lengthy debate, and
after the voce had been taken, and just
as the vote was about to be announced,
was tabled on the motion of its author
in order to stave off defeat.
Tne bill of Mr. Hall of Bibb to repeal
section 5331 of the code and restore the
right of trial by jury was lost by a vote
of 71 to 54, lacking 17 votes of a consti
tutional majority.
Mr. Hall advocated his measure and
Messrs. Slaton of Fulton and Copeland
of Walker vigorously attacked it.
This bill sought to prevent judges
from directing verdicts as they are now
empowered to no by section 5331. In
Tennessee, said Mr. Copeland, they
have a non-jury docket, thus saving the
counties much expense in useless legis
lature.
The Australian ballot bill by Kelley
of Glascock was advanced to a second
reading and recommitted.
The bill to put the misdemeanor con
victs under the control of the prison
commission is the special order for to
morrow.
In the senate Mr. Bell’s resolution for
a joint committee of 15 to report needed
amendments to the state constitution
was passed.
Mr. Howell introduced the measure
prepared by the military board revising
the military laws of this state.
The general judiciary committee of
the senate is considering the cigarette
bill that passed the house last week in
reference to its conflict with the inter
state law.
Senator Eilis of Macon introduced a
resolutiou for the state geologist to
make certain investigations of the
kaolin deposits of this state.
The reapportiumeuc of members of
the general assembly in accordance with
the last census as embraced in the
Hardwick bill passed the senate today,
having passed the house last fall.

HE SERVED UNDER SCHLEY.
Engineer Williamson of the “Hover”
Holds Up For Admiral.
Dublin, Ga., Oct. 29. — Engineer
Charles A. Williams of Savannah, who
has been connected with the Rover
sinoe that steamer was placed in com
mission, claims to have served under
Admiral Schley for a number of months
as assistant engineer. He states that he
was with the flying squadron during
the Santiago campaign, but took no
part in the naval battle, having pre
viously been sent away in one of the
steam launches to carry dispatches.
Mr. Williamson is an admirer of Ad
miral Schley and is taking an interest
in the court of inquiry now in session
in Washington. He characterizes the
court as a “humbug. ” He thinks that
Sampson should be given the credit for
planning the battle and Schley credit
for executing it and destroying the fleet.
In fact, like Schley, he thinks there was
glory enough to go around.
Mr. Williamson will only be connected
with the Rover until the affairs of that
steamer get in good running order.
Tennessee Bank Suspends.
Nashville, Oct. 15.—The Citizens’
