demn modern lard. Hand in hand go health and Cot-

get Cottolene. See that the trade

of the Stomach.

iiR. A. L. LEWIS, of Springfield Mass. , says—-

A leading physician told me that I had :1 cancer in the stomach. i suffered terribly,
maid cat ‘nothing but light broth which would stay on my stomach only a. short time;
.- very oilious and nervous, and thought that I must die. One day when my doctor
Ana-d he told me that he could do no more for me; he said he had no confidence in pro.
- aeriry medicines, but that it would do no harm to try

The Famous Forger and Swindler Ar-

HIs Lorre crimes or CRIME.

Ho IVas One of the Noted Southern Conspir-
ators \Vho Tried to Burn New York]
In 1864—1110 Scheme That Has

J ust Brought Him to Grief.

BOSTON, March 18.—The‘ Boston police
have just landed in jail a man with a his-
tory and police record that stamps him one
of the most remarkable criminals of the
day. . 5:
Dan Ward, the famous swindler, was ah?
rested under the name of Colonel Andrew
~ J. West on a. charge f0 impersonating that
gentleman and of having in his name
signed and cashed a check for .847. 50 drawn
upon the Merchants’ National bank of At-
lanta. and madcpaynble to Jordan, Marsh
& Co. No bail being forthcoming Ward
was sent to the Charles street jail to await
an examination on March 22.

A few days ago he had a land scheme
which, it was believed. he was promoting
here. He was then thought to be Colonel
West of Atlanta. In reality he is “Colo-
nel” Daniel S. Ward, alias Captain Ward,
alias Captain Morgan, Captain Pepe, Cap-
tain Miller, II. C. Wood, Colonel Sellers
and many others. His adoption of the
name of Colonel West is new to the police
here. The colonel was employed by the
Confederate government during the war
in looking out for the wants of prisoners,
etc.

The Plot to Burn New York.

Ward is generally known throughout
the country as a. bogus check worker, but
it is stated that in the sixties he was im-
plicated in more serious matters, for which
two alleged confederates paid the death
penalty. Today, in the inspector’s office,
the colonel partially acknowledged his
identity when his picture, taken ten years
ago, was shown him. The prisoner also
talked freely about his past, but when
asked about his operations in Boston he
replied, “That’s for you to prove. ”

Dan Ward was one of six men arrested
in New York on Nov. 28, 1864, for com-
plicity in a. plot to burn several of the
principal hotels in that city. He was con-
fined at police headquarters there for four
months by order of General Dix.

The plan of the conspirators was to burn
Lovejoy’s. French’s, the Astor House, the
Albemarle, the Fifth Avenue and the La.
Fargo House. Two of the men arrested
with him at the time were Captain Ken-
nedy and Captain Bedloc. These two were
found guilty of conspiracy.

Captain Kennedy was hanged at Fort
Lafayette, and Captain Bedloe paid the
death penalty on Bedloe’s island, in New
York harbor. Ward was sent to Fort La-
fayette, where he was confined for several
months, but he finally managed to get clear
and was sent south.

Ward was also suspected of being con-
cerncd in the burning of Barnum’s mu-
seum in July, 1865, but the evidence
against him was not strong enough to
warrant a. conviction. '

Early in the seventies the colonel met
M. W. Pepe of Baton Rouge in Wootlvillo,
Miss, and forged Pape’s name to a check
for $1,100. For that offense he spent a
year in jail in Mississippi, and after his re-
lease. went to New York and introduced
himself as H. W. Keller of Woodville, Miss.

Forger and Swindler.

By this rcprseentation he secured from
W. C. Browning & Co. of Brooms street a
suit of clothes and 8100 in cash in ex-
change for a worthless check. In August,
1884, he again appeared in N ew York city
and swindled a. number of merchants by
means of forged letters of introduction and
bogus checks. He represented himself as
captain of the steamship Eclipse, running
between New Orleans and New York, and
in another place stated that he was about
to fit up a large billiard room in N ow Or-
leans. Following this, he practiced his
schemes in Boston, Providence, Chicago,
Cleveland, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Louis-
ville and Philadelphia. .

Ward again put in an appearance in New
York in July, 1885, and was arrested for
being concerned in the sWindles of the pre-
vious fall. He was tried on two complaints,
was convicted and sentenced to three years
in state prison. He was released on Feb.
19, 1888. In the following July he was ar-
rested in Cincinnati, and since then it has
been said that the colonel’s right name is
Albert C. Ward.

In speaking of his New York experience
in 1864, Ward said today that his arrest at
that time was an outrage. When he was
arrested, ho had $27, 000 of good United
States currency in his possession in a belt
worn around his waist. It had been given
to him by the Confederate government to
aid in getting secessionists- from Canada
and the provinces back into the south. He
says that he spent 820.000 of the money
in paying two lawyers’ fees.

The “Fiddling Governor” Dead.

TACOMA, March 18.—Char1es E. Laugh-
ton, the “fiddling governor" and ex-lieu-
tenant governor of Washington and Ne-
vada, died last night of failure of the
heart. Mr. Laughton'wus born in Ban-
gor, Me., where his father still lives. In
1882 he was elected lieutenant governor of
Nevada, serving four years, and in 1889
was elected to the same office in this state
for three years. He was acting governor
for six months during 1890.

Died In the Bathroom.

LITTLE ROCK, March 18. --Miss Edna
Thornburg, dav ghter of II on. George
_ Thornburg, was asphyxiatcd last night.
She was a. memb or of the best society and
had been entertaining some friends in the
parlor, when, at their departure, she went
into the bathroom. A few minutes later
she was found dead, having been overcome
by gas escaping from an instantaneous
heater.

GADSDEN, Ala, March 18.—A water
spout passed over the Goose river valley,
40 miles from here, late last night, leaving

eral lives were lost.

From a letter written by Rev. J. Gun.
derman of Dimondale, Mich., we are
permitted to make this extract. “I have
no hesitation in recommending Dr. King’s
New Discovery as the results were almost
marvelous in the case of my wife. While
I was pastor of the Baptist Church at
Rives Junction she was brought down
with pheumonia, succeding La Grippe.
Terrible paroxysms of coughing would
last hours with little interruption and it
seemed as if she could not survive them.
A friend recommended Dr. King’s New
Discovery; it was quick in its work and
highly satisfactory in its results.”

that he had a severe kidney trouble for
many years, with severe pains in his
back and also that his bladder was afl'ect-

almost instant relief. One trial will
