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.” [Signed ] John Hunter. Subscribed and sworn to before me. C. L. Stetson. Notary Public. 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 stomach refused to perform its func tions without heroic measures and iotense suffering. » Doctors diagnosed my case as lo comotor ataxia and my family pbs - sician gave me every care and at tention possible hut all his prescrip, tiona during two years were power less to alleviate my sufferings or in any way afford the slightest relief. “After being virtually given up as a dead man by friends and phy sicians. and resigning myself to my apparent fate, my neice read an ad vertisement of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. I discussed it with my family aud almost bop- 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 Attention, Young Men.

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.

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.
