My physician Anally said I wua in con

to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I did so,
and before I had taken half a bottle wits
able to go out. Jty the time I hail
finished the bottle I was well, and lmv«

terr.oon a fata! shooting nil air took placo at
No. 10 Avery street. Tho premises had boon
used as a gambling room, run by Edward
Flanigan and David Lsnahan. At tho bo 1
mentioned, tho two proprietors and Adolph A
A bite lit wero engaged in a game of faro, being
tho only persona in tbo building. According
to Albrecht's story, he detected I.tnaban in an
attempt to rheat him, there being about Mb on
the table, and he remonstrated with him,
LanaInn grabbed a b g iron bir and m*do
t-nvagfl pans at him. Albrecht
atlf-defcmo drew his revolver ar.d fired
two idiots at Lunshan, one passing through his
forcluad and coming nut of the back of his
bend, causing instant death. Flanigan then
championed l-nnihan's cause and started for
Albrecht also with an iren bar, but was met by
two or three more bullets from Albrecht's re
volver, one of which passed through his left
breast and the others took effect in his head,
The most damaging testimony against Al
brecht is tho fact that the police found four
cartridge shells upon tho floor, while within a
five-chambered revolver, with which the shoot
ing was done, were found four more empty
shells, thus judicating that during tho affray
Albrecht stopped to reload his woapon. Flani
gan states that Albrecht drew his revolver and
commenced shooting before they began their
attack upon him.

"Yes; it was a warm time,'' repeated Mr.
Meadors. "You sco 1 keep a livery stable in

‘ How do you know he Is tho man?'
''Oh, several wayH You see his right name
is Pat Hanley. We have bis picture, and no
one who sees tho picture and tho priioner
doubts it.”
"Then you havo secured a big thing?
“Bather large,yes. When Hanley eamo to

by blmtclf, but after Uanio and I had followed
them some miles, tho other fellow,—Charles

—got in tlio buggy. We followed thorn until

“Whois that?’
“ ’Who are you?’ answered Ilanio.
“ ’Halt,' said tho man.

“Dues bo talk any?’
“Mighty littlo. lie says that ho is going to

“Does bo admit being ono of tho four

“Not exactly, but when he was ahown the

"Havo you taken any steps to secure tho ro

“Well yes, wo havo had tho prisoner photo

An KxprTrain Robbed.
Rome, N. Y., March 31.—A special from
Frank fort says that Express Messenger Leake,
who was roblxd between Clark’s Mills and
Frankfurt last night- reached here about mid
night, and was able to havfi his wound
dressed. He was shot in the epper ptrt of
tbe arm, the ball passing in tho shoulder,
esuhiog an ugly wound.
Mr. lAiako stated to a reporter that «oon
after his train loft Clark's Mills a man entered
hia car through the side door, which he shoved
tack, saying os ho entered:
''THROW I P YOUR HANDS.”
Leake did not realize fora moment what was
up, and failed to comply with tho demand. The
intruder thereupon leveled bis revolver at the
messenger and shot him. Leako tell to the
floor of tbe car, and his assailant said:
“Now, d—u you, when I tell you to hold up
your bands again, you'll do it won’t you?”
The assassin then bound tho hands and feet
of Leake and put a gag in his mouth. Due of
his legs tho robber tied to the sate. Tho dcs
perado then took a bunch of keys from the
pocket of tho messenger and unlocked tho
safe, which ho rifled of a money packago. The
amount secured is believed to bo
BETWEEN $7,000 AND $*< 000.
Tho robber then left. Before leaviog the
car, tho robbor said to Leake:
“D—n you, if you. My any tiling about this
1 11 come back and kill you.”
Tho mesMmgcr then replied:
“Yon would rob a man and thou kill him
too, would you?”
“Yes, I would,” said tho robber as ho loft.
Leako tried to freo him&clf, but did not sne
ered. At Vtica his car was opcuod, aud ho
was freed from his unconifortablo position. At
this placo it was decided that ho had better
stop over and have his wound attended to.
Tlio messenger says his assailant was a large,
strong man, wearing a mask that hung down
over his chest. His Lair was cat very snort at
tho back, and bis hands were calloused, hard
und dirty.
Local oxpresa officials decline to state the
•mount of the I06S. Route Agent Bushnol
reached Utica at noon today. Do was reticent,
but admitted a loss of about $1,000. Othor
statements fix the loss at $3,000. It is belioved
that tbe robber entered the car near Oneida
rastlo, where tbo grade Is heavy. Tho mos
conger's statement that the robber entered by
the side door is not believed, aa the platfurm
door of the car was not fastened by a chain, as
it should havo been, when tho train reached
Utica.
The messenger said to some one that he was
sitting at his opeu safe when attacked. His
description of the robbor tallies jierfectly with
that given by Night Agent Barger of the
masked man who robbed his drawer of about
$1m on March 11th, walked him down the track
arxl gave him bock a watch and revolver that
had been takon with tho money. Two broth
ers, named Scbultx, who were himtine in
Usrtfield's woods, noar Ontoiro nni Western
f tat ion. in New Hartford, found pieces of ox
press money envelopes takon from Messongor
Leako, of the West Khore road, lost night. In
his basto, tho robber loft pieces of hank notes
in tho torn parts of envelopes. Tho distinct
footprints or but ono man were discovorod.

The alarming disease of this
country is nervous debility and
prostration. It goes under
many names but it is essen
tially the same complaint.
Hospitals and private institu
tions for nervous patients are
crowded. The average of life
in the United States is de
creasing every year. Sudden
deaths from nervous collapse
among our business, profess
ional and public men arc so
frequent as scared}' to excite
remark. The majority of sui
cides, committed without ap
parent reason, or under so-called
“depression of spirits," are
really prompted by nervous
prostration, which is a fruitful
source of insanity and crime,
with all their grief and liorron
These facts are startling.
They threaten the very life of
the nation. They assail the
springs of its power aud pros
perity. They wreck manhood’s
strength and woman’s useful
ness and beauty.
Ever}' one should know the
causes. What are they? The
answer is easy and terribly
plain: Our vicious personal
liabits; our careless and lawless
eating aud drinking; the in
tense mental and physical strain
arising from our mad race after
money, position and influence;
the fears aud struggles of pov
erty; the use of narcotics and
stimulants; our fashion of
turning day into night and
night into day; and, briefly,
our desperate willingness to pay
any price for an hour’s pleasure
or success. So we bum life’s
candle at both ends aud fill the
lunatic asylums aud the grave-
j\ards.
The disease from which we
suffer and die is, in plain Eng
lish, Nervous Dyspepsia, as it is
seated in the Nerves and in the
organs of Digestion, Assimila
tion and Nutrition. Healthy
digestion being impeded or des
troyed, the whole body, nerves
included, is literally starved;
even when there is no emacia
tion to tell the sad story.
Nervous prostration sends out
its warnings:—headache in the
morning; a persistent dull heav
iness or aching at the base of the
brain; wakefulness; loss of ap
petite and disgust with food;
loss of mental energy aud inter-
est.in ordinary duties aud bus
iness; restlessness and anxiety
without any assignable reason;
eructations; bad br«itli; foul
mucuonsouthe teeth; occasional
giddiness; palpitation of the
heart; sallowuess of the skin;
coated tongue and gradual fail
ure of strength and ambition.
The remedy is a total aban
donment of the habits and cus
toms which cause the disease in
each individual case, and the
use of Shaker Extract of Roots
(Segel’s Syrup) to cure the
mischief already done. This
great remedy, prepared by the
Shaker Community of Mt. Leb
anon, N. Y., is especially adapt
ed to eradicate Nervous Dys
pepsia. To do this it actsdircct-
aud gently but powerfully
upon the disorered stomach, liv
er and kidneys, restoring their
tone and vigor, promot’ng the
secretion of bilc,expelliug waste
matters from the system, aud
purifying the blood.
Upon the nervous system
Shaker Extract (Seigel’s Syrup)
acts as a safe aud wholesome
anodyne without the slightest
"narcotic effect, and then leaves
the nerves to regain their nat
ural tone aud strength through
its wonderful influence upon
the functions of nutrition.
It is safe to say morenorvous
dyspeptics have been restored
by it from the depths of misery
to a fresh enjoyment of life and
labor than by any or all other
forms of treatment combined.
