The Sensational disooirery of a' Benedian, Newspaper Which llas
' Ieen completely Verified.
. The Monitor, a newspaper published at l
Meaford, Ont., Canada, first discovered this ’
case two years ago, and published it at length,
which now seems, owing to the cure of it, to
be a miracle. The facts were so remarkable
that many people doubted the truth of them.
They said : “ It is too remarkable; it cannot
possibly be true; the paper is mistaken,’ and
the man, although he may think himself
cured, will soon relapse into his former con-
dition,” etc., etc. The accuracy of its re-
port called in question, the Monitor deter-
mined to find out definitely whether the
hots were as stated and whether the man
would reallystay cured. They accordingly
kept a close watch on thevcase for two years .
after the first article appeared, and have just
now published another article about it in the slightest shadow ot‘a doubt, in view of

vised to take Dr Williams’ Pink Pills
for Pale People. He took them and there
was a slight change. The first thing noted
was a tendency to sweat freely. This showed
there was some life left in his helplessbody.
Next came a little feeling in his limbs.
This extended, followed by pricking sensa-
tions, until at last the blood began to course
freely, naturally and vigorously through his
body, and the. helplessness gave way to re-
turningr strength, the ability to walk re-
turned and he 2.3.1.5 restored to his old time
[malt/z.
The above is the substance of the first
article published by the lllom'tor. Now fol-
low some clippings, taken from the same
paper two years afterward, and there is not
me until I began the use of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills. To this wonderful medicine I
owe my release from the living death. I have
since recommended these pills,to many of
my friends, and the verdict i’s‘ alwa s in
their favor. I shall always bless the ay I
was induced to take them.”
Such is the history of one of the most re-
markable cases of modern times. Can any
one say, in the face of such testimony, that
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are not entitled to
the careful consideration of 'any suffering
man, woman or child? Is not the casein
truth a miracle of modern medicine ? ,

. The first account stated that’the patient
(see address below) had been a paralytic for
hve_years, that there was such a total lack of
feeling in his limbs and body, that a pin run
full len h could not be felt; that he could
not wal or help himself at all; for two
years he was not dressed; furthermore that
he was bloated, was for that reason almost
unrecognizable, and could not get his clothes
on. The paralysis was so complete as to affect
the face and prevented him from openin his
mouth sufficiently wide _to take solid ood.
The doctors called the disease spinal sclero-
sis, and all said he could not live.
For three years, he lingered in on-
dition. Then by some friends he was adv

manent. Here follows the account:
On being again questioned, Mr. Petch

what is true of my hands is true of the rest
of my body. Perhaps you have observed
that I have now even ceased to use a cane,
and can get about my business perfectly
well. You may say there 1's absolutely no
doubt as to my cure being permanent. In-
deed I am in even better-health than when 1
gave you the first interm'ew.”
“ Do you still attribute your cure to the
use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills? ” asked
the Monitor.
“Unquestionably I do,” was the reply.
“ Doctors had failed, as had also the numer-
ous remedies recommended by my friends.

“ I worked in Newburyport two years and
then established niyselfin business in West
Aniesbury. During this period I was mar-
ried at Charlestown. In 1862 I removed ,to
York, where I enlisted in the U. S. service
I served nearly three years, participated in
forty-three battles, some of them the hottest
fights of the war, was twice wounded and for
atime disabled, and at last was discharged
at Augusta, Me., in 1865.
“ I secured and kept the contract for car-
rying the mails between York and Ports-
mouth N. H., for twelve years. I removed
to Medway in March, 1887, where I have
since resided, in business as'a carpenter and
builder. I have raised a family of ten
children and have now a family of six resid-

‘About three years a o I was suddenly
attacked with dizzy spe ls, protracted in

went by. With these attacks came incessant
vomiting and spasms of coma so that in-

“Soon I was forced to keep in bed, my
digestion was wrecked, my business was
50mg to pieces and everything looked very- *

one of the men. His attentton was
called to Willis, because he asked if
the car went to Winnipauk mills.
Willis sat down in the car and the
other man remained on the platform,
Finally the latter went into the car,
kicked Willis’ foot, and then, sitting
down, engaged in conversation with
him.
At the end of the route the couple
left the car went up the road.
There were only four persons in the
car and the lamps were lit. Willis
carried a. small black leather handbag.

timony was not shaken by the cross
examination. _ '
Albert W’. Allen of W'cstport was
also a passenger on VVari-incr’s train
and identified Willis, as did Frederick
Gardlick.,a coachman, living at Sauga-
tuck who was with Allen.
Daniel G. Betts of Wilton, testified
that he was called to the Lambert
home on the evening of the shooting.
He WCDL inside and saw Mr. Lambert.
On coming out he picked up a stiff hat
on the verandah. He found a bullet
hole in it at the rear of the crown. The
hat was shown in court and identified.
On cross-examination the witness said
5 that his front gate was exactly 750 feet
from the Lambert gate.
' Frank Josephs, who was in th

John E. Shepard of Winnipauk, said
after he had identified Willis, that
the latter was on Conductor Buck-
man’s car on the night of the shooting,
with him, as passengers and that he
carried a small hand satchel. He de-
scribed the clothes of the two men the
same as other witnesses had done.
Mrs. Andrew Bell of Wilton said that
she lived in the next house to the Lam-
berts. Describing Mrs. Lambert’s hur-
ried call on her after the shooting to
give the alarm after other people had
arrived at the house, Mrs. Bell said:
“As I went in the doorway I saw Mr.
Lambert lying on his back, just inside
the door. He was lying across the
doorway. I picked up his hat lying on
the verandah and gave it to Mr. Betts.
I asked Mr. Lambert who had shot him
but he did not reply; at first I thought
he was dead.”
The witness was led to show that the
lower half of the door was closed and
the upper part open. This would seem
to make it plain that Mr. Lambert had
staggered to the door, leaned over it.
and dropped his hat on the verandah,
after this, falling to the floor, where he
was found.

TO ATTACK SAN JUAN.
Both Porto Rico and Cuba Are to Be In-
vaded at- Once.
Washington, May 26.—-It: was an-
nounced at. the war department as soon
as the proclamation was made public
that an expedition of 20.000 troops
would be sent at once to seize and occu-
py San Juan and the Island of Porto
Rico. Further than this Admiral
Sampson has been ordered to take his
fleet to San Juan and prepare the way
for the arrival of the troops. In other
words he is to destroy the fortifications
so that our army can land and occupy
the island.
The invasion of Cuba will likewise be
started immediately, and 100,000 men
will in all probability be the strength of
the invading army. Reports at the war
department show {that there are 13,000
Spanish troops at Porto Rico.
Oregon to Convoy Troops.
It is announced at the navy depart-
ment that the Oregon will be used to
convoy the troops to Porto Rico, and
that they will start just as soon as they
can be made ready.
Reports now in possession of the ad-
ministration show that 10,000 soldiers
will be sufficient to- take and hold Porto
Rico, but it is reported tvo-day the offi-
cials think at least twenty thousand
men will be sent there forthe invasion
and occupation.
' At present there are about 182,000
men in the army, counting the regulars
and volunteers. The call for 75,000
men, together with the immunes, will
bring the total up to 250,000, or the
number which it is thought will be re-
quired for the plans now under consid-
eration. These» will be divided among
the expeditions as follows: About one
hundred thousand for the Cuban invas-
ion, at least thirty-five thousand for the
Philippines, and perhaps this will be
doubled; twenty thousand for Porto
Rico, which figure may be reduced. The
extra troops sent to the Philippines.

Scarcely a dozen senators were present

OREGON SAILS AGAIN.
Big Battleship Arrived Last Night, .bu.
Departs This Morning.
Jupiter, Fla., May 26.-——The United
States battleship Oregon arrived her:
last night and left. this morning.
Washington, May 26.—Secretary Loni;
has received an official dispatch an-
nouncing the arrival of the battleship
Oregon in Jupiter Inlet, Fla. Her safe
arrival in the inlet was reported im~
mediately to the president. .
Captain Clark in his message to the
secretary of the navy reporting his safe
arrival, says that he is in condition for
immediate active operations.
Rather reluctantly the navy depart-
ment confirmed the report of the arri-
val of the Oregon at Jupiter Inlet.
While declining to give any details of
the trip of the Oregon at this time, the
officials admit that the ship swung
clear to the eastward of both the Lesser
and Greater Antilles after leaving Bar-
badoes, until she arrived at a. point op—
posite the Bahamas, When she turned
sharply in and made for the Florida
coast. The Oregon left Mare Island,
03.1., 13,000 miles away from Jupiter, on
March 19, so she has averaged 260 miles
a day for sixty-five days.
THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
A Bill to Push Its Completion as Rap-
idly as Possible. '
Washington, May 26.—Senator Mor—
gan and the president have had a con-
ference over the Nicaraguan canal. The
senator assured the executive that he
intended to call up in the Senate at an
early day the "bill providing for the
completion of the canal 'by American
capital. He also said that he would
press it to a. vote as soon as possible.
The president is heartily in favor of
the project and said so. The long trip
just completed by the battleship Ore-
gon .has demonstrated the necessity of.
the canal, and the president assured the
senator that he would support him as
far as he was able.
Mr. McKinley thinks this is an~ op-
portune time to press the measure and
believes that a. majority of both houses
can be secured for it.
New York's Quota About 7,500 Men.
Albany, May 26.—VVhen the news was
received here that the president had
issued a call for 75,000 more volunteers,
Governor Black had left the executive
mansion for his luncheon. Attaches at
the office estimated that New York's

men. It is known that no definite plans
have been prepared by the state mili-
tary authorities as to how they will
raise this second quota. of men.
