The reception by the Business Men’s

was a pronounced success.
The Easter appearance of the stores

The slanderous attack made on the
- members of the Third regiment by an
agent of the Atlantic coast line’may
have another side of the story. Perhaps
the soldier boys may have semething
to say about the treatment they re-
ceived at the. hands of the railroad

Comesfrom Dr. D. B. Cargile, of
Washita, I. T. He writes: "Four
bottles of Electric Bitters has cured
Mrs. Brewer of scrofula, which had
caused her great suffering for years.
Terrible sores would break out on her
head and face, and the best doctors
could give no help; but her cure is
complete and her health is excellent.”
This shows what‘thousands have proved
—that Electric Bitters is the best blood
purifier known, It’s the supreme
remedy for eczema, tetter, salt rheum,
ulcers, boils and running sores. It
stimulates liver, kidneys and bowels,
expels poisons. helps ’digestion builds
up the strength. Only 50 cents. Sold

Side Tracked.
One of A} Q. Scammon‘s excellent
companies will again be the attraction
at Hoyt’s Theatre on Saturday next
matinee and evening presenting that
cyclone of fun “Side Tracked.” There
are more realistic situations in the play
6f “Side Tracked” than perhaps any
other Show of its class on the road, and
yet there is so much of the ludicrous
about them that one cannot fdiled to be
amused. The company presenting the
play contains such old favorites as E.
Vance, Gertrude Barnes, J osie Roberts,
Marguerite Mayfield and others.

A press dispatch from Waterbury
says that Dr. P. J. Callahan, who was
mentioned in the Guilford trail by Har-
ry Oxley as having been employed by
him in the case of Emma Gill, denies
that be rendered further service than
to examine the girl and pronounce cor-
rect her own diagnosis of her condition.
He said he never saw them together,
and that after making the examination
he informed Oxley of its result. Oxley
then asked him, he says, to perform an
operation on the girl, and he refused.
He says he never saw either of the par-
ties after refusing to operate.
